#At 06.00 a.m.
"Fuck, I'm late!"
"Fuck, Fuck, Fuck, Fuck!!!!"
"FUCK THIS ALARM!!!"
"WHY THE HELL THIS ALARM DIDN'T MAKE ANY SOUND!!!!"
Yeah, each and every one of you can see what is happening right now before your eyes.
A man wearing a sleeveless shirt is bustling around on his bed, realizing the time of the clock hung on his room wall are pointing at six.
You might be wondering why I was so panic. Why I seemed to be very panic like the world would come to its end?
The answer to the sudden panic attack currently happening is pretty "simple," because there is a possibility that I am going to be late to catch my next flight since the clock has struck to six in the morning.
"Fuck, it's already fucking six, you damn stupid clock!!"
"WHY THE HELL YOU DIDN'T MAKE ANY SOUND!!!!"
"Shit, how could I wake up this fucking late!!" I swear to myself.
I supposed to complete my check-in at terminal one of Soekarno – Hatta International Airport, but at this particular point in time let alone securing my seat on the plane, I am still bustling around on my messy bed.
'Well anyway,' I was late because of a role-playing game named 'Final Fantasy' I played last night using my Playstation 4 console.
Wait, You might be wondering about what kind of affairs are there between my gaming activity and waking up late?
Okay, let me tell you a little about myself.
I am turning 17 and currently attending a Senior High School or Community College or whatever name you call it I won't fucking care.
My hobby is RPG gaming.
The reason why I'm waking so late because I was so absorbed in gaming screen for hours last night until dawn because, by chance, I manage to crack the RPG game using cheat engine.
Was it fun?
Definitely yes, it was super fun, because I played it using a cheating device so that my main character in the game can dominate all of my enemies and he was so damn convincing.
I've got the trick from the cheat engine I recently downloaded called "Save Wizard."
That night I knew that I have to wake up at 04.00 a.m. the next morning because at 05.00 a.m. I should leave the house and drive my Vespa to the airport so that I will arrive at the check-in lounge at 06.00 a.m.
Well, it was how it went, I kept playing until dawn and fell asleep afterward.
#15 minutes later
"The flight No. GA 312, Garuda Airlines, Jakarta [Cengkareng] – Lombok, will take off at 06.30."
"Attention, for all passengers of Garuda Airlines No. GA 312, GA 312 Flight, Jakarta [Cengkareng] – Lombok, soon will take off at 06.30."
"!@#$%^&*(!@#$%^&*, Fuck I'm late, I'm late, I'm late!!!, please, don't leave me, please!!!" I grumble.
Currently, I am wearing a white shirt; black ripped jeans, messy hair, and a black backpack.
I am running furiously along the airport lounge to catch my flight.
"Attention, for all passengers of Garuda Airlines No. GA 312, GA 312 Flight, Jakarta [Cengkareng] – Lombok, soon will take off at 06.30."
The announcement was repeatedly echoing around airport lounge because one passenger has not boarded to the airplane yet and I am sorry to say that the passenger is me :D
"!@#$%^&*(!@#$%^&*, Goddamnit!!! What the fucking hell!!! Yes, I know that I'm late, and I'm catching up right now you damn fucking plane!" I mumbled to the announcement echoing around the airport lane.
"Drrrt, drrrt, drrrrrtttttt" my phone suddenly vibrates.
"Shit, who the hell is calling me this time? Can't he see that I'm still busy catching up right now!" I mumbled and annoyed.
Although a little bit annoyed, I still try to answer the incoming call from my phone.
I pulled my cell phone from inside my jeans' pocket and said, "Hello!"
"Ndra, where are you? The plane will take off soon!" said the man who is calling me.
Well, yeah, that's my name: Andra and the backbone XD.
Oh, hell no. I am just kidding.
It is actually a band name. My full name is Andra Sadewa.
As each and every one of you can see now, I was abruptly running to the plane's door so that I won't be late to catch up on the flight.
Fifteen minutes ago, I decided to leave home without taking a shower.
I just simply changed my cloth, washed my face, brushed my teeth after that "swoossshhh" I was heading to the airport riding my old-school Vespa.
I fully understand that if I took a bath, it would not make any sense that I will arrive at the airport on time.
Fortunately, I live next to the airport, so at least there is still a hope that I will arrive on time if I don't even bother taking a shower.
I woke up late since I played RPG game till dawn. I already set the alarm on my phone at 04.00 a.m. last night, but because of my stupidity, I did not realize that my phone appears to be in silent mode, so the alarm was actually ringing, but no noise came out of it.
The second question that might be flying in your mind is, why should I go to the airport?
Well, today my classmates and I are planning to have a camping trip to Lombok using business class plane together.
"Yes, I roger that I am almost there, now I'm running like a mouse who was chased by a group of hungry cats!" I shouted at my cell phone while running.
After a few tiring minutes trying not to be late, finally, I was on board and, out of the blue all my friends were cheering like soccer supporters watching their favorite player managed to put the ball into the net during a soccer game.
"Hurrrrraaaaaaaaayyyyy" Shout my friends who arrived earlier than me, some of them were also clapping.
"Clap, clap, clap, clap."
"What made you come this late? Damn, I have to convince the flight attendant to hold the plane because of you!" said the man in a redshirt.
"Yeah, fortunately, we booked the whole seats in this business class, so we got special treatment from Garuda Airlines, and the airline allows us to wait for you," said the beautiful crescent eyed girl.
"Sorry, Pram, Sar, my bad, I already set my phone alarm at 04.00 a.m. but well my stupid self didn't realize that it was in silent mode so I couldn't hear the alarm."
"Okay, what's important for me is the fact that now you're here, it won't be fun without you, man."
"Hahahaha"
Including me, there are ten of us securing business class seats of the plane. All of us are planning to go to Lombok to have a camping trip during this school holiday.
You might be wondering why we went on a camping trip by plane. Since, you know, that going by business-class' flight is too money-consuming.
Well, all of us were coming from well-off families, our parents are quite famous and rich, so we could afford to buy a business class ticket from one of the prominent yellow-plate flights in the country.
However, an unexpected event occurred after the plane takes-off…
#Ten minutes after take-off
"Splatt, splatt," the thunder sound blared many times over the sky.
The sky was pitch-dark.
The rain was pouring heavily outside.
"Captain Hendro, now we fly above the suggested height."
"Confirm autopilot," said Captain Ari.
"It seems like the weather is not friendly enough," said Captain Hendro.
"Right Captain Ari, our sight is blurred."
"Sigh, thick dark clouds with lightning, and rain are a pain in the ass, and we also need to stabilize the plane properly."
The moment of an anomaly occurred suddenly.
...… not long after that...…..
"Captain, what is that?" shouted Captain Ari.
"Oh Lord, that's, that's....." Shout Captain Hendro. He was surprised by sighting in front of him.
A beam of light resembling dark ball suddenly appeared in front of the plane and swallowed and covered Garuda Airlines Flight Number 312.
"Whung"
Captain Ari and Hendro, who currently focused on controlling the plane, were tremendously surprised.
"Captain, the light, the light, where is it coming from?"
"BOOM"
"Captain, the right-wing was crushed by something."
"BOOM"
"Captain Ari, we will fall,"
"Captain!!! Radar cannot show the plane's height."
"Captain Ari, does the communication device still work?"
"BOOM"
#While in passenger seats
Cry of panic from the passengers were heartbreakingly heard. The sobbing sound and panic voices were echoing inside the plane in the passenger section.
The condition in the plane at that time was really messed up with the shout of the passengers.
Some passengers were closing their eyes and praying, some were hysterically shouting, some were buckling up the seatbelt, and others were crying in growls.
"BOOM"
"Eeekkkkkkkkkkkkkkk"
"What have I done, if I know that it will be like this I prefer to be late" hissed Andra who seemed to have surrendered to this pathetic condition.
"Excuse me, miss!! What is happening? What is going on?" slurred Sari, Andra's friend, who currently also panic.
But the flight attendant who is currently panicking can't answer Andra's friend's question. She leaves Sari alone without answering her and rushing towards the pilot's door.
I also heard the screaming of passengers from the economy class section.
It was very hysterical, and I can say that their scream sounds scary. Evidently, the passengers felt panic and scared. "Dug dug, dug."
"Captain Ari, Captain Hendro, please answer me, what is happening! Captain, captain" shouted one of the flight attendants behind the closed door. The door leading to a pilot room currently locked. It seems quiet inside.
The air pressure inside the aircraft cabin seems to be worse. The membrane inside the passengers' ears like conceding water, a sign that the fuselage is currently swooping down hard.
My friends were crying, hugging, and shouting. They were not ready for the tragic destiny that occurred to them.
When facing all of this, I just prayed, I remembered my God, the moments I previously experienced suddenly popped out inside my mind.
I suddenly remember my mother, father, brother, sister, and my friends, including all events starting from the sad ones to the happy ones, and so on were crossing my mind at that time.
Regret by regret began to emerge from within my heart for all the actions I had done to others, until finally, surprisingly, I fainted. I became unconscious.
# Sometime later I wake up from my unconsciousness
I was lying down unconsciously before.
My cloth was still complete; even there is no single wound on my body.
I stood up, sitting in limp, looking at my left side and found my backpack in perfect condition.
"Weird, why is this backpack on my side?"
My eyes which were previously blurred were starting to clear up, little by little I realized, and looked straight to the front.
I was really surprised by this phenomenon, I'm really confused because the view that lies in front of me now is a pretty strange sight.
Now I am in a tall but ancient building. The view in front of me is a vast and long desert landscape.
What makes me even more confused is that the plane that I used to ride was totally gone, also, though my current position is not on the flight anymore but on a roof that is quite classic but a bit modern.
"Dead? Am I dead? Is this heaven or hell? Where am I right now?" I muttered to myself.
When I was confused about the phenomenon happening right now, suddenly I heard someone calling me from behind my shoulders by saying "Oooo my Lord God, Dewa Candra Kumara it is great that you are finally here!"
