Ace Team - Operation: Black Dust

Chapter 1 - "Have a good flight guys!"

Kyiv, Ukraine.

Frank and Jack are going home after a trip to relieve the Korean mission's stress, where the weather is sunny with no clouds in the sky. "Hey Jack," Frank says. "The next flight to New York is almost ready to take off." "Yeah, I know, but I'm not ready yet for a 15-hour flight." They both laugh and go through the terminal. "Our flight will make a stop in London. With airplanes, I always have a bad feeling after that incident", Jack says. "Well, that was not an incident, but the last time you said that was in Korea where we got taken down and almost killed" "Yeah, a terrible memory."

Frank and Jack are getting closer to the ticket validation lady and proceed to give her the tickets. The lady says: "Everything looks alright, have good flight guys!". "Thanks," They both answer. They proceed to get on the plane and walk towards the seats. After a while, the captain announces: "Hello ladies and gentlemen, the plane is about to take off in 10 minutes, so please put your seatbelts on and have a nice flight".

People are starting to fill up the plane and put the bags inside the hand luggage. The captain begins to speak again: "We will take off in 1 minute. Please, I invite everyone to take a seat and put the seatbelt on".

So the plane starts going to the runway, and the engine gets louder and louder until the airplane finally rises from the ground.

While the airplane is in the air, they both order a glass of scotch and make a toast: "Hoping this time nothing goes wrong!" "Well, I hope so too."

After one hour and a half, the tranquillity on the plane gets interrupted by six guys with a black mask, and one of them says: "Ladies and gentlemen, this plane is now hijacked by the Black Mask group, so don't move or we will shoot every single one of you!".

Jack gets on high alert and says: "Damn, these people are trying to take control of the plane. We need to do something!". "Yeah, I know, we need to do something about it! I have two knives in my bag. First, get those knives." "I didn't know you could bring knives on a civilian plane," Jack answers. "With my secret service permit, I can do that..." "By the way, they have guns, so what's your plan?"

"With your great talent to throw knives, you can eliminate one of them and get somebody's weapon. The knives are in my backpack, which is in the hand luggage" "Ok, let's do that then. I will grab the backpack, and then I'll wait for your signal to go".

Jack grabs the backpack in the hand luggage, trying not to get caught, and after getting the knives, they're ready to take back control of the plane. Then Frank says: "Ok when some of these idiots will come near us. We'll take him down and steal his gun." Jack nods and waits until one of the Black Mask guys gets close, and one of them comes into that corridor. Jack is ready to take him down.

While waiting for Frank's signal to go, Frank taps Jack on the elbow on his back to warn him. Jack jumps on the terrorist covering his mouth so that he can't call for help, and Frank gets up and grabs his gun and looks around to see if any of the black mask guys are near them, and luckily, they are not. Jack finally puts down one of the six terrorists, and Frank checks the magazine, knowing the standard 1911 gun has seven bullets, but there are only four, and one is inside the chamber.

Quietly, they will take down the other five walking across the passengers and tell them to stay calm when Jack sees one of them alone and charges him. Firstly, he hits him with two knives: one on the leg and the other on the shoulder. He comes closer as possible and punches him to make him faint. Jack checks the gun -a regular Glock 17 with only seven rounds inside and one on the chamber and takes back the knives and proceeds to move on to the next target.

Meanwhile, Frank is walking towards two other terrorists. He hides behind some seats, leans his arm on the chair to aim, and asks the civilians near the gun: "Guys get down and cover your ears with your hands." Frank takes a deep breath and shoots one of them in the head, and then quickly aims at the other one, also shooting him in the head. The other two terrorists, after hearing the gunshots they got suspicious, and one of them says: "If somebody is getting closer, some innocent guy is going to eat some bullets!". Jack hears the shots and proceeds to get closer to Frank and says: "Great shooting Frank, now you need to take down the last two" "Yeah, I know it was hard to hit these two guys while the plane was swaying, but I did my best." Frank replies.
