As Ginger observed the situation unfold, he swiftly made his way towards the group of hostages, removing his mask to blend in with them, his true identity concealed. The presumed leader, sensing something amiss, ordered his men to prepare themselves. The hostages were then divided into two groups, leaving half of them behind.
Observing this development, Ginger couldn't help but ponder their motives. "They're really leaving half of them here," he thought, contemplating the terrorists' puzzling strategy. Ginger whispered to his brother, informing him of their plan to use masks as disguises during their escape.
"You know that's not my problem, right?" his brother replied tersely.
Undeterred, Ginger decided to seize the opportunity. Following the remaining hostages, he managed to board the bus en route to the nearby airport, fortunate enough to evade suspicion.
Within the minds of the terrorists, they double-checked their G36 rifles, lightweight firearms constructed with glass fiber reinforced plastic. They concealed the weapons with large bags, disguising their true intent. The bus journey to the airport was uneventful, except for a screaming hostage whose cries fell on deaf ears. Upon arrival, the terrorists confirmed the presence of the ransom money and swiftly proceeded to depart with the hostages, boarding a waiting plane.
Once on the plane, Ginger took advantage of the chaos and crippled one of the terrorists, grabbing his weapon in the process. Ginger's brother, puzzled by his actions, contacted him, questioning his deviation from the initial plan.
"Aren't we here to rescue the hostages?" his brother asked, seeking clarification.
"Yes," Ginger affirmed. "But I'm also here to ensure they can't repeat these actions."
"How?" his brother inquired, seeking answers.
"Just watch," Ginger replied cryptically.
With most of the terrorists resting on the plane, Ginger strategized his next move. He subtly incapacitated a fellow passenger, causing confusion within the group as they realized some of their members were missing. Seizing the opportunity, Ginger stealthily made his way to the cockpit without arousing suspicion.
Inside the cockpit, the leader, engrossed in his duties, suddenly felt a blunt object strike the back of his head, rendering him unconscious. Ginger swiftly secured the cockpit and redirected the plane back to the airport of origin.
As Ginger initiated the plane's reroute, a loud banging noise emanated from the door. Ginger recognized the source, understanding the passengers' realization that the plane's direction had changed. Closing in on the airport, Ginger promptly informed the Air Traffic Controller (ATC) of his impending arrival.
"This is Boeing 747, requesting permission to land," Ginger communicated to the ATC.
The ATC, realizing the gravity of the situation, urgently contacted the Air Marshal. The Air Marshal, maintaining a composed demeanor, established communication with Ginger.
"Is this the Boeing 747 that has been taken by the terrorists?" the Air Marshal asked.
"Yes, it is. The pilot has been incapacitated, and I'm currently in control. The situation is relatively secure," Ginger confirmed.
"Understood. I need you to land that plane on runway 7. I'll contact the military to be on standby," the Air Marshal instructed.
"Roger that. ETA 10 minutes," Ginger acknowledged.
Closing in on the airport, Ginger's senses heightened, goosebumps prickling his skin. Without wasting a second, he tightly gripped the Glock concealed within his jacket.
At an altitude of 1,000 feet, Ginger began hearing gunshots from behind. His vigilance intensified as the plane descended to 100 feet. Applying the brakes, he skillfully slowed the landing, using every ounce of his expertise to execute a smooth touchdown. Maximizing the brake power, he positioned himself in a hidden spot, awaiting the next series of events.
As the plane came to a complete stop, Ginger cautiously observed the situation. The door swung open, revealing the terrorists' confusion upon discovering their incapacitated leader and the empty cockpit. Recognizing the urgency outside, Ginger heard the blaring sirens approaching the scene. Sensing an opportune moment, he shattered one of the plane's windows and made his escape.
With a powerful explosion erupting from the plane moments later, the force of the blast threw Ginger several meters away, rendering him unconscious. The chaos and intensity of the situation had reached its peak.
