Flight 402, London Heathrow to Montreal Airport

摘要

The two men jumped out of their seats and ran to the front galley. Charlotte was standing facing the counter, pouring some water and trying to compose herself after all the trouble at the back of the aircraft. Paul grabbed her from behind and put an arm around her neck, his other hand holding up the glass bottle. Claire had been making her way to the flight deck to brief the crew on what had happened when she saw them. Charlotte's skin was white, almost translucent against her red hair. She was gagging as Paul held her back. "What the hell? Charlotte!" "Stand back," he said to Claire. "I have a chemical agent. VX. You may have heard of it. A few drops and she'll be dead." He eased the rubber bung off the top of the bottle and pushed it into Charlotte's face.
