| 'I assume you've gotten everything taken care of as I have asked?' - 'Of course, sir. Everything is aboard, as well as the passengers.' - 'Good. Looks like you won't be getting fired today.' - **The strong wind coming from the engines of a jet blow the hairs on Chris Legend's head all the way to the left. Despite this, his face is stone. A solid look in his grin, and his eyes hidden behind a paid of sunglasses, even though it is a cloudy day.** - **He climbs up the steps into the jet, with nothing but a bag over his shoulder. As he enters the door, a flight attendant closes the it behind him. He pushes his way towards the front of the plane. He enters into a large room, with a table, 4 chairs, a bar, complete with a bartender, and a bathroom. He sits down in one of the chairs, throwing his bag casually on the ground next to him.** - 'Mr. Eli, sir...are you situated?' - Legend: What of it? - 'It's just...they've been waiting for you.' - Legend: Fine. Just send them in already. - **From the back of the plane, 3 other people walk into the room. A latina woman, who looks to be in her mid 20's, takes the seat across from Chris. A man, looking to be in his 30's, with a grin across his face, sits to the left of Chris, and a second woman, this one looking incredibly young, takes the seat to the right.** - Legend: Glad to have you guys back. - **He turns his attention first to the man.** - Legend: Sam...Sam Ryan was it? How could I ever forget that attitude of yours. You had a mouth with no filter. I liked that about you. And I'm glad to have you back. - **Next, he looks to the latina.** - Legend: Isabella...I could never remember your last name, you know. deMonte, maybe? You have the same purpose you always have. Keep Sam from being an idiot. I understand it's a hard task... but someone has to do it. - **Finally, he turns his attention to the third girl, with a smile on his face.** - Legend: And of course... how could I ever forget Ms. Alison Crider. Last time I saw you, you were only a high schooler, barely 16 years old. Heh... Now look at you. All grown up. You look just like your mother, you know that? - **Alison goes to break the silence of everyone but Chris.** - Alison: I've been told, sir. I'm glad to be back. - **She pushes her blonde bangs out of her emerald green eyes.** - Legend: Heh... I'm glad to have you back, Alison. - **Chris continues to look at her for a minute longer, before finally, the silence is broken.** - Isabella: Chris... I really have to ask... Why have you brought us back? - **Chris turns his attention to Isabella** - Legend: An opportunity presented itself, and I took it. When I was given the company... I knew I wanted it to be my own. And making it my own... ...involves bringing back some people from my past. - Sam: What are you talking about? Have you gone mental since we've last seen you? - **He turns towards Sam, who grizzled expression shows his age.** - Legend: Why Sam... I'm surprised you haven't figured it out yet. Take a look around you... ...who's here? - **Sam, Isabella, and Alison all take a look, surveying the other people at the table. Finally, Alison's face lights up with a revelation.** - Alison: You don't mean... It's not possible is it? - Legend: My dear... anything is possible when you set your mind to it. I had a goal, and I chased it. - Isabella: And the end result was... - Legend: That's right... - Sam: North... - Isabella: American... - Alison: Wrestling... - Legend: NAW. That's right. I made gold out of lemons. - Isabella: But... but... but... ...how? - **A grin cracks across Chris's face, and he chuckles.** - Legend: You need not worry about that, my dear. All that matters is that I brought you back. You mission is the same as before. Nothing's changed. - Alison: Well...except... - **She looks at Chris, and then sinks her head before saying anything.** - Sam: Mike... - **Chris's head snaps to Sam, with a look of sudden anger.** - Legend: Out. All of you. Out of my sight. Right now. - **Isabella, Sam, and Alison quickly get up from their chairs, and hustle out the back exit, from which they came.** - **Chris pulls his phone from his pocket, and begins searching for a number. He seems to find it, and presses the call button, carefully placing the phone against his ear.** - Legend: Hey... it's Chris. Remember what we talked about? Do it. Yes, I mean now. I want him ready to board the next plane here. Do I sound like I'm kidding? Just make it happen. - **He hangs up the phone, and slips it into his pocket. He leans his head against the back of the chair, and slowly drifts off to sleep.** - ~Several hours pass~ - 'Chris...come on... it's time to wake up.' - **Chris opens his eyes, and the first thing he sees is the blonde bangs of Alison hanging over her glowing eyes.** - Legend: We're... We're here? - Alison: Yes... and it looks like we're the first ones. - **Chris props himself up, grabs his bag, and begins walking to the door.** - Alison: Do you need any help? - Legend: No... thank you, sweetheart. But I've got it. - **He steps out of the plane, and immediately has to drop his sunglasses over his eyes to protect from the glare of the sun.** - Legend: This place... ...it's freaking deserted... - Alison: Yeah... Everyone else will be arriving shortly. In the mean time... We have our own personal cabin. - **Chris looks over at her, with a hint of excitement.** - Alison: Yeah... You... Me... - **Chris begins grinning** - ...Sam... and Isabella. - **And just like that, every bit of excitement gets wiped from his face.** - Legend: Right... Let's go... - **They begin walking towards the cabin, as the plane flies off, and the scene fades to black.** - | |
