Datum 34: Slowly but Surely

I just caught myself in severe awe when I heard the command control's decision.

What. The. Fuck.

DUBAI INTERNATIONAL AVIATION AIRPORT SOUTHERN WING
EAF ARABIC REGIONS
18:45 (06:45pm)

Hagalaz's Point of view

The heat of the arabian concrete still lingers as on our feet as sirens of ambulances kept on rushing on the site where Von managed to land the hijcked plane.

Hindi ko akalaing magiging mas madali ang trabaho ko ngayon. I stared through my phone before closing it and leading my attention to the officer in charge who was approaching.

"Captain Helsberg. Its good to see you again. Im happy that you are all well." He said as he offered his friendly hand and brought me a hot cup of coffee and a small comforting towel.

"Thank you." I said as I took his cup and covered my back with the towel.

"It was so sudden. I never expected that these things will happen, especially considering the ideal safety standards and strict passenger screening this airline has. Its one of the official flag carriers of the Arabic Regions."

Napa buntong hininga ako as I took a small sip.

"Hows the passengers doing?" I firmly asked.

"Oh. Theyre all well. Im glad that they didnt harmed any single passenger and as well as employees inside. Kinda weird for hijackers to do that since they should be targeting and hurting them. It seemed that they are somehow focused on something more important rather than taking the whole plane."

My eyebrows fused upon hearing that observation. True indeed that those people seemed not to mind the passengers nor the staffs.

"But they killed the two pilots. Leaving us no choice but to intervene." I curiously replied. Napakibit-balikat ang opisyal at napatingin sakanyang hawak na mga papeles sa clipboard.

"Thats the thing tho. They killed the most important people inside this plane without thinking that they can be killed on a plane crash instead when the autopilot will be failing soon." He explained.

"Not to mention, all 11 of the said hijackers are found dead inside the plane in different areas. All of the 11 manifested the same sign of bleeding through their ears, indicating some sort of trauma in the ears, or the brain itself."

Natigilan ako nang marining ko ang reports mula sakanya. Theres something telling me that theres wrong with all of these shits happening.

It could be? Or it could be not? Masyado pang maaga upang mag assume.

"I guess a post mortem investigation will be conducted." he added na pumukaw ng aking atensyon.

"Can you relay the results to me? Xavierheld might need the data for this examination." I immediatedly requested.

"Of course, captain. Since your group was somehow affected by these things, it will automatically allow all information forwarded to Xavierheld Military."

He then smiled productively as she looked at me. I somehow felt glad to hear such thing.

"Thank you, officer. It any information will do."

My attention suddenly focused upon seeing Matthew from a distance carrying Stella in his arms as the medics approached them when they finally disembarked from the plane.

His expression seemed calm as he carry her.

I totally forgot about them tho, but looks like he was taking good care of Stella. Im just glad that hes taking the responsibility good. No wonder Maris chose him.

"Is there something wrong, Captain?"

My senses were turned back as I heard the officer call my attention again.

"No. Not at all." I replied. "Thank you for your service, officer. It was a pleasure to meet you."

"All good, captain." He then happily replied as he closed his file folder, and shook my hand. But somehow turned his attention back to me.

"Oh by the way, one more thing. Kindly send my greetings to Captain Vaughn Meinhardt." He added that made me a bit confused and astonished.

"What do you mean?" I seriously asked.

"Oh. The command center was able to verify his pilot code when he was sending a distress message for his emergency landing. You know the protocols of aviation security atleast here in Earth, we require pilot codes to grant usage access of facilities."

"I never knew that one of the heroes from Valfreyan War would able to contact us again."

He then smiled and saluted as he innocently went on his way, without knowing anything he said. I returned back the respects and saluted him careful not to show any kinds of astonishments.

From a distance, my eyes pressed onto the blonde man that was surrounded by military personnels as he disembarked the plane.

He's coming back for sure. Slowly but surely.

*** TO BE CONTINUED

MATTHEW'S PREVIEW SCENE

We are seriously followed. I knew that it was the plans of Regalia Blanca. Alam ko kung ano ang pinasukan ko. At alam ko kung sino ang pro-protektahan ko.

"I could really see how Stella is running away from me."
