General
"I will keep an eye on him, sir...... Besides, he looks like an idiot, I bet he doesn't know anything
about our business world...... yes sir.... the secret is still safe among us. The last person that ever knew
about it already executed from this world. Don't worry sir...."
Nathan suddenly entered the bathroom when he saw Thomas was talking with someone on the
phone.
Actually, he doesn't hear anything but Thomas thought he had heard every word that he said
through the phone.
"I'm sorry, sir," he said through his phone again. "I must execute the plan B...." he hung the phone.
The clueless Nathan quickly settled his business when saw Thomas gave him a death glare as his
eyes met Thomas's.
'What is wrong with him?' He thought. 'He's creeping me out.'
"Mr Harrison," he called Nathan.
"Y-yeah...." he stuttered a bit.
"I received a text that the jet already arrived." Thomas gave a smile to him. "I think we should go
now."
Nathan swallowed hard. "A-alright, then. I'll inform to my friend, now."
Mr Drake’s private jet already waiting for them on the runway and was ready to take off.
Nathan and Seth entered the jet followed by Thomas who instructed something to the pilot and his
other assistants.
In the jet, from LAX to the New York....
Seth Pearson
I was talking to with my friend when a stewardess brought us the juices while Thomas, Mr Drake
assistant was sleeping behind us.
"Thanks," I said to the stewardess followed by my friend, Nathan.
"So Seth, did you plan your proposal yet?" That idiot purposely asked me that question.
I drink the juice a bit and it tasted, weird. But I keep drinking it since I feel a bit thirsty, now.
"I was working on it....just please don't keep asking about it. You'll ruin it if someone knows about
it, dope." My head starts to dizzy so sudden.
I look at Nathan and he already passed out after drinking that juice all at once.
"Na-Nathan....." My eyesight now, slowly becomes dark and I'm now totally lost conscious.

"Hey hedgehog!!!" I heard Nathan’s voice was calling for me and he sounds panicked. "Wake up!!!
I hardly opened my heavy my eyes and my head is dizzy so much
"Wake up, now!!!" This time he shakes my body to wake me up.
"W-what... what happened?" I asked him, totally wide awake now, but still feeling a less dizzy than
before.
"We are in trouble. Thomas was hit by a masked man. A-and I don't know who he was." He looks
so in panic.
"Where are they now?"
"They were in there, in the cockpit."
"What happens to your shoulder?" I saw the blood coming from the wound on his shoulder that
looks like he has been shot.
"That mask man shot me. But don't worry, it's only a scratch."
"Wait here, I need to check on something."
Nathan grabbed my arm. "No!!! I'm coming too."
"Don't be stupid, Nathan! You're already injured. If something happens to you, I-I don't know what
to say to your wife. And I just can't forgive myself either."
He scoffed. "Nonsense, we'll be safe, hedgehog. Trust me."
I look at him for a while before agreeing with his words. "Okay then. Let's go."
I wear the parachute and slowly approached the cockpit with Nathan. In there, we saw Thomas
was tied to the chair and the masked man was pointing a gun at him.
"Look, he is wearing the parachute too. We need to steal it from him." I whispered to Nathan.
He only nodded.
"I'll be count of three.... you safe Thomas and I'll handle him."
One....
Two........
Three..........
I pushed the mask man and he falls hard on the jet floor while Nathan saves the unconscious
Thomas.
"Bring him out!!!!" I shouted to Nathan.
The loud bang heard and I feel a sudden pain in my shoulder.
"Seth!!!" Nathan who already brought Thomas out from the cockpit came back to save me.
But the mask man once again shot him straight in his right chest.
"No!!!!!" I shouted when saw my friend fall with the blood all over his shirt.
No....no....Nathan!!!!
Nathan didn't move a bit, not even slightly after he got shot.
No....h-he can't be d-dead.
The mask man then shoots the flight instruments that cause the jet becomes failure and starts to
dive towards the ground.
Oh no...we are so in trouble this time!
That mask man managed to get away from me and took Thomas along with him.
I need to grab Nathan quick or he will be flying out from the jet when the mask man opens the
emergency door.
I endure the pain from the wound shot in my shoulder for awhile so I could grab the unconscious
Nathan.
The mask man then flew out with unconscious Thomas leaving us alone in the failure jet as he
opened the door.
Okay, it's my turn now.... I need to save Nathan quickly. He needs an attention in instant because
he's bleeding a lot now.
I put on the parachute properly so it can hold us both.
Just hold on for awhile, dope.
Please don't die yet.
I made my way from the falling jet and ready to pull out the parachute. Nathan still unconscious,
but I make sure that he never falls from by holding him tightly.
I pulled the parachute and it works. But only for a temporary, since we were too heavy for the
parachute to hold on us.
Luckily, there was an ocean below us and the beach, seems so close enough. I wait for the
suitable height for me to release the parachute from us.
But unfortunately, I lost my grip from Nathan because of my slippery hand that was covered with
the blood that coming from my bleeding shoulder.
"No....Nathan!!!!"
My unconscious best friend falls straight in the water and I was unable to save him because I was
stuck with the rope at the parachute.
I no longer see him as the wind blew this stupid parachute and brought me to the other place, far
from the place that he fell.
This stupid parachute is now stuck in a big tree. I unbuckled the parachute from me and then fell
hard on the ground.
I couldn't move my right leg, maybe it was broken from the hard falling. Nathan’s face was flashing
in my mind that made my tears begin to fall on my cheeks.
It was all my faults.
I'm too weak to hold him.
He died because I lost the grip.
What am I going to say to his wife…I just can’t say I lost the grip that made him fell. Oh God…I am
such a loser.
I'm truly sorry, Bella, I failed to save him. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
