Trying To Leave Silently
As the plane taxied its way toward a hangar it had been assigned, everyone took a moment of silence to thank the heavens they had landed safely. It was the first time in all their travels with the Major that their landing was bumpy.
And bumpy was an understatement in how it had felt to them.
Even the smuggler, who was used to riding unregistered flights with acute needs for expediency over comfort, felt like this landing was on the rougher side.
But he wouldn't complain, even though he wanted to. It wasn't worth the headache of the ensuing argument that was bound to come.
Reaching the hangar, the aircraft suddenly entered a quiet zone as the rain stopped harrying the metal exterior, leaving the unwelcoming storm to enter the damp hangar.
Reaching a complete stop, Major Schrute started flipping off the engines, doing her final after-flight instrumental check, and letting the plane fall dormant.
