Chapter 05

"Ladies and Gentlemen, flight number 30153 to Casablanca, Morocco. The flight has been delayed to bad weather conditions. The flight crew has arrived at the gate, but the ground crew is still de-icing the wings of the aircraft. Our new departure time is 11.35 pm. Thank you."

An elderly man with white hair inspects a Casio watch. It airs at 8:00 p.m. His lips parted slightly as he chuckled. Unlike usual, the plane was delayed by two hours from its original departure time. I closed the watch once more. In Rabat, Morocco, He pursues a plane for business reasons. The elderly gentleman had a meeting with a Chinese client. The right leg swayed incessantly. They are unable to wait due to the plane delay. The flight has been confirmed by a screen. Outside, the weather was unfavorable, with a windstorm and overcast clouds.

"Why isn't the weather cooperating? What happened to the announcement? Not to mention the three-day trip there to meet clients," He grumbled.

The white-haired old man intended to contact airport personnel to get his plane airborne as soon as possible. However, the line was too long to tempt him. Repeated inhalation Relax while contacting clients in China to reschedule the meeting because the situation is unfavorable.

He was carrying a book, a digital camera, and a passport in the name of Allen McCarthy. He kept it carefully so he wouldn't fall or be left behind. Even if he is careful in his handling, it makes no difference if small items such as plastic bottles are left at the airport.

Each airport's policies prohibit the transport of liquid beverages. They are concerned that the bottle of drink will be used as a weapon, such as in an impromptu bomb assembly. As a result, officers have been stationed at each airport to monitor and warn passengers who were found carrying bottles of liquid, to put it mildly. They must place metal objects into an X-ray machine or metal detector. The rest will go over the contents. Check for any suspicious items in the bag.

After an hour, the passengers were asked to leave the inspection room and go to the next gate. The old guy with white hair closed his eyes. If possible, take a rest. He's put the book to his face since the plane delay is too long. Until a young man called his name.

"Allen McCarthy!" shouted the crowd.

The voice belonged to a man the elderly man recognized. Roger Devone is the name of his partner. Blonde hair, a tiny mustache, and a beard with virtually no hair. Allen was dressed in the same attire. To be more exact, a gray blazer shirt with a crimson tie. Allen, on the other hand, is a deep blue color. In addition, he had a pen in his shirt pocket.

"Please don't call me by my full name. I told you before. Call me Allen or Mr. McCarthy," Allen resented it.

"Well, sorry about that. If I don't do that, then you won't listen to me. Just enjoy you're snoring," said Roger.

Allen sighed about his partner's behavior. Allen was supposed to resign and let Roger take over his business. But for some reason, he won't. His age of 63 or higher is a good time to retire from the harsh world. And leave it to the next generation to go on. It's a regular occurrence. While Roger is half his age or roughly three decades younger than him. He appears to be livelier than Allen. The white-haired adolescent recalled his boyhood. It is time for him to demonstrate his talents to Roger one final time, even if he is no longer young. However, for some reason, Allen's passion persists, and he postpones retirement. Although, in the end, leaving the management to Roger was the correct decision. The intense look of his blond-haired eye while Allen was in his world. His cheeks swelled out as he gazed up at the monitor once more.

"Another delay, eh?"

"Yup. Also, the weather is not good," Allen remarked.

"Oh Really? That's too awful. Should we eat over there? "Roger was directed to one of the nearby eateries.

"No thanks. Because I just ate several minutes ago."

"Let me guess? It's from your wife?"

"Yeah," said Allen.

"Alright then. I'll eat first. Call me if any updates from the airport," Roger had a conversation with Allen.

Allen also verified his coworkers' statements. Allow Roger to go first and buy meals on the spot. Meanwhile, Allen sat and waited. He took a quick look at the irate passengers. Allen has also called the customer to reschedule the meeting. They also agreed on comparable weather circumstances. Allen let out a long sigh. If the weather continues to deteriorate, give up. He placed some books on the chair out of curiosity. Approach a Customer Service representative. Try to meet someone.

"Could you please make it faster? Because I have a meeting with a customer from another country!"

"Wait a minute, sir!" said one of the airlines' customer service representatives.

While waiting, Allen sees Roger flirting with attractive women when he sits in the passenger seat. He decided to play some games on his smartphone. Allen let out a long sigh. He grows impatient about this situation, so he decides to approach Roger. Squeezing Roger's ear hardly. Several girls surprised about his action, keep away from them.

"What are you doing, Roger?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing, eh? Now, tell me. Did you go to somewhere, just to asking the girls you slept with?"

"Why do you say that?" suddenly Roger's intonation changed to formal.

Allen covered his mouth; he seemed to have said something wrong. According to him, Roger is often known as a flamboyant in the eyes of women. In addition to easily attracting women, he always puts women above his interests and mission. It made Allen dizzy to deal with it. Moreover, Roger will continue his business as a mercenary contractor or military contract company. From Roger's nervousness, Allen blinked his left eye.

"Sorry about my word, Roger. Besides, I know exactly what you are. So I'll take it as long as you can tell the difference between personal and business," Allen advised Roger.

"Fine by me. Even without you needing to tell me, I already understand," the intonation of the tone changed back to being familiar with Roger's signature smile.

However, Allen hit Roger on the head very hard. Turned around and walked over to get his luggage. They saw that the rain had stopped. The storm started to stop even though the clouds were slowly clearing up. Allen decided to wait a little longer. Roger's order was served. One of the waiters gave a menu book, Allen refused because he had eaten a gift from his wife. But he asked for bitter coffee.

"Oh yeah… you know what we're going to do in Morocco?" Roger's expression turned serious.

"According to the information I have, it seems that the Abu Dhabi tycoon hired our services to protect the second prince."

"Seriously? How old is that prince?" asked Roger unable to express his surprise.

Allen checked his smartphone. He showed Roger the gist of the conversation with a photo. Prince looks very young and thin. Short hair and wearing a branded white cap. His eyes showed an innocent and cute personality. Roger wanted to hug the prince. Where has the playboy figure in the eyes of women gone? Allen grumbled inwardly.

"Age 6 years. And don't try to hug him or just pinch his cheeks. You might be considered underage sexual harassment and our company's name will be tarnished," Allen threatened jokingly.

That elicited a sour chuckle from Roger. To be sure, he rubbed his palm away from his face to make sure he wasn't acting strangely. This is especially true in front of his patrons and customers alike. However, for Allen, this was the hundredth time he had received a plea to safeguard a young kid. A Chinese businessman begged Allen to protect kids from terrorist threats. The two people are the same age. As part of his commitment, Allen pledged to keep customers safe from terrorists. Finally, the gray-haired elderly guy ordered his employees and ranks to tighten security. The outcome was a resounding success. And it has a solid track record to back it up. Other areas were contaminated as a result of the scandals that his successors were involved in. Allen, having learned from his competitors' mistakes, is extremely picky when it comes to selecting a successor. Thus, Roger Devone is the ideal candidate to take Allen's post. Of course, they're both citizens of the United Kingdom.

Allen has always been drawn to the scent of danger since he was a kid. Mountaineering, rock climbing, and so forth are examples of extreme sports. Firearms are one of his most cherished interests. Allen sensed something was missing in the white-haired elderly guy without his gun. He was undergoing military training at the time. However, he was dishonorably discharged from his position due to his history of insubordination. Allen ended up becoming a mercenary after all. He's struggled and survived long enough throughout the years. In the first year, his fame grew exponentially. Allen formed a mercenary contractor with his mentor and colleagues. Sadly, Allen's mentor died of lung illness. The mentor role is being replaced, and mercenary efforts are being prioritized. His mercenary contractor company was able to continue as a result of his ice-cold hands. Even if it means keeping it a secret.

Vivian, a Princess of the Monaco Monarchy, happens to cross his path one day. Vivian's father initially disapproved of the couple's relationship. Until one of these occurrences shakes him out. As long as Allen's only military assets were mercenaries and Monarch-supplied technology, he was free to marry. They've been relying on the French for defense up until now. But Allen became a backup. If the French troops were to suffer a single setback. Allen has a long-term contract and is ready to serve to the end as Vivian's father's soldier. To date, different clients have been presented, such as executive officers and presidents of the Kingdom of the United Kingdom, who continue to want it. Since then, Allen McCarthy's name has become well-known as the first individual to be awarded the title of Knight in the Kingdom. Although many people refer to it as a myth or tale. He has ties with the Monaco Monarchy Kingdom and England who continued requesting assistance as an unseen bodyguard. Political and administrative issues, on the other hand, were delegated to his wife, Vivian, and his family. They also handle money and free up future weaponry that hasn't yet been created. Allen and Vivian are now a regular married couple. Enjoy his loving wife's meals.

Allen and Roger began to leave the restaurant after a lengthy delay. Put money on the table following the bill of lading. They made short work of it as they made their way through security at the airport. Finally, an official from the airport began to unlock the entrance for passengers. Perform routine inspections to make sure everything is in order. The metal belt, smartphone, and other metal items are all gone. Allen tucked the passport discreetly into his jean pocket before reaching for it. Enter the gate to continue. They were able to go inside with no issues.

Allen purposefully failed to pack the weapon. The elderly guy placed it in a cork box. Along with the luggage, everything was tied up neatly. Heavy goods like bags and cartons are loaded onto the rubber walking carriage after they have been inspected.

He grinned and said, "It's about time," as he walked away from Roger.

"Okay," he said as he trailed after Allen.

The two of them proceeded towards the plane's gate, which was labeled A5. A kind flight attendant welcomed them when they arrived. Encouraging us with a glimpse of his pearly whites. Roger aspired to take action against the lady. Allen, on the other hand, pounded his shoulder with a strong grip. Stop doing strange things, this means. The moment Roger dipped his tongue, he sank back into his chair.

"Are you in first?" questioned a flight attendant.

"Yes, you heard me correctly... This is our boarding ticket, thank you for your cooperation "said Roger as he demonstrated to the flight attendant the evidence he had obtained.

It's not necessary to double-check. Because Roger's activities were deemed unusual, the flight attendants were intrigued by the two gentlemen and inquired about them. Allen provided credible evidence on his and Roger's side. The flight attendant apologized to Allen and Roger for the inconvenience. The passengers had boarded the aircraft one by one. Allen and Roger took their places in the first row of first-class seats and were among the first to secure their seat belts.

"Did the flight attendant look at our tickets?" Roger wondered aloud.

"The passengers are referred to as first-class, you know. That's why they double-check our tickets for authenticity "according to Allen's explanation Then he said, "At the same time, your activities are deemed noticeable, therefore we must be reexamined."

Roger made a smacking noise with his tongue. I apologize if I've caused any inconvenience to Allen or the other passengers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard Air Arabia flight 30153 to Casablanca Mohammed V Airport in Morocco from Kuwait City International Airport in the United States. We're in line two right now and should be airborne in about five minutes "a message blared from the speakers.

Allen's attention was solely focused on what he was reading. Rather than begin his journey immediately, he decided to spend some time recuperating. At the airport, Allen just closed his eyes although he was sleepy.

"All passengers must immediately put on their seat belts and secure their belongings in the overhead bins and the luggage compartments under their seats. As a courtesy, please place your folding trays and chairs in the proper locations."

"Roger, wake me up when the plane had already take off."

"Eh? What gives? Though it has yet to take off. That Allen dude is not cool at all "Roger moaned, his face flushed from astonishment.

Allen, on the other hand, paid no attention to what Roger had to say. He was seated next to someone who was sighing. Checking his smartphone, he discovers who the contact is who will be contacted at a later date. Aside from that, he felt bored to reading about security measures in-plane.

In preparation for takeoff, the plane's engines are up and running. Three flight attendants demonstrated routine safety measures as the aircraft rounded a corner and returned to the runway. Roger, on the other hand, has yet to meet a lady who piques his curiosity. Until he locked his gaze on the lady at the end of the row. Hair is a lovely shade of blonde with a lot of body. He lifted his brows repeatedly, which made the flight attendant grin. Then Jesus went on to show them how to be saved. Roger got up and went to the bathroom. I wish the blond lady was here with us right now. Offer a drink or just engage in conversation. Roger, on the other hand, believed that he must fuck a blonde lady.

After 5 minutes, the lady knocked. The flight attendant got in Roger's face kissed. Before that, they had to do it in the bathroom for 10 minutes at a time. No one, on the other hand, was alarmed.

We're getting ready to go on this journey. They clung to one another like tightrope walkers. As his two limbs came into contact with each other, both Roger and the flight attendant suppressed a chuckle. Consequently, their hearts were pounding very rapidly. His heart pounded and the ripples in his blood were palpable.

As for the rest of the crew, Allen has just awoken from his afternoon sleep. However, he was alone; Roger was nowhere to be seen. He sighed, thinking Roger was having an extramarital affair with the flight attendant, and he shook his head. When Roger caught a glimpse of Allen's eyes, he realized something was up. Arrived just in time for the exhibit.

Allen sighed heavily as he said, "I warned you not to get into trouble."

He grabbed his smartphone and dialed Vivian, his wife. There were a total of thirteen dropped calls. Allen forgot to switch off his phone at the airport. Because she didn't answer the phone, Vivian was concerned. He hit the green button on his smartphone after the thirteenth incoming call.

"Hello?"

"Honey, I just finished taking off and was already on the aircraft," Allen apologized.

"Really? That's where I had expected it to be, at the airport. Because of the storm's effect on the weather, conditions were unpredictable. So I felt it would be a shame to remain at the airport till the situation calmed down," His wife exhaled a sigh of relief.

"That much is obvious to me. However, the outlook for the weather is improving. In addition, the plane's crew and mechanics have done their utmost to bring them there."

"I appreciate you mentioning it. There's nothing to be concerned about, in my opinion." Vivian breathed a sigh of relief when she started this.

An airline employee serves food and beverages. The sandwich and drink were requested by Allen. Then pay for it while keeping an eye on where the flight attendant is placing the meal. Like his adolescent grandson, the white-haired elderly guy studied his features.

"Sir, is something wrong? Has anything gone wrong with my facial appearance? "said a perplexed flight attendant.

"It's all right. Your features resemble those of my grandson, who was just in Monaco. When a work trip is finished, I want to meet him again," he said with a grin.

"I'm hoping your prayers are heard."

Allen ingested it and followed it up with an isotonic beverage. Look through the magazines stored beneath the chair's back. Looking at Roger with astonishment as he places his sandwich order. Vivian yanked the video connection to a close with a sigh.

"Wow, you have a grandson? Should I inform the King that you're making sexual advances toward a female passenger on the plane?" Vivian made fun of Allen by teasing him.

"Seriously. Don't you remember when I said something similar? It was only a joke "stated Allen as a response to Vivian's jest.

"Yes. Allen, I think you're right. Aside from that, I'd undoubtedly—"

Outside, the plane's engine noise abruptly stopped. They were stunned. They both changed into new outfits. The blonde flight attendant made eye contact with many people. Take a seat in the back seat as soon as possible. Roger, too, hurried to plane seat and buckled his seat belt.

"What happened?" Roger panicked.

''What was that?'' his wife worriedly questioned.

"I'm confused. Okay, I'll tell you later. Just keep your hope alive that nothing bad happens "said Allen in a hurried manner.

"That's right, my dear. Allen, you have my undying affection."

He said, "I love you, too."

Also, there's no way to contact anybody since the phone's dead. Roger had completed the process of putting his belt on. He prayed that the aircraft had not been smashed to pieces. Allen sat up straight and shut his eyes. I'm hoping this thing comes to an end soon.

The plane's right-side engines caught fire and went out in a fiery ball of fire. Both engines' suspension systems caught fire. The plane's siren was blaring. Scare all of the passengers and make sure everyone is wearing their seat belts. They prayed while they read salvation prayers.

"Son, don't be afraid. The mother has arrived."

"Lord, please rescue me!"

Around Allen and Roger, screams and fear persisted. The flight attendants made several attempts to soothe him. When it happens, the oxygen mask comes off in an instant. They placed one by one into his mouth. Allen and Roger are also included. The aircraft made a sharp turn and plummeted to the ground. From the window, he can see an uninhabited island in the distance. In addition, a wave-filled sea may be seen nearby. Allen came to terms with the fact that he had only a limited amount of time left. Then a tremendous explosion sounded. The plane's fuselage broke apart. The cloud of smoke was becoming bigger and bigger.
