Greek Runaway

Σαράντα τέσσερις(Forty Four)

3rd Person's POV

Inside the crate, Custer had thought long and hard about his previous plan and has come up with a new one.

"All right. Now, like the brilliant and famous general that I am, I thought long and hard about what you said, and I've come up with a brand-new and improved battle plan! Okay. I will loudly announce that we are not going to attack, and then...Wait for it. 'What's the amazing Custer about to say now? I hope he's my friend, or...' We attack!"

Kahmunrah was sitting next to Jedediah who was sitting in a pile of sand.

"Didn't expect your friend to run off like that, did you?" Kahmunrah asked Jedediah.

 "He's coming back, Ka-Ka-Ro. Sure as moon shines on a mongoose, he'll be here."

"I would save my breath if I were you. You don't have many left." Kahmunrah said.

In Air and Space Larry, Amelia, and Katalina were needing to get to Jedediah.

"We've got about 10 minutes to get over there to Jed."

"I think we make a good team, perhaps more than a team," Amelia said to Larry. Katalina watched silently.

"Wait. Okay, wait."

"What's the matter? You didn't like kissing me?"

"No, I did. It was great. I mean, the slapping hurt a little bit, but...

"So you don't like me, then."

"Of course I like you. You're incredible. I think you're an amazing person. You're...It's just there are certain issues that would prevent us from...I just... You're not..." Larry tried to explain.

"I'm not what, Mr. Daley?"

"Okay. You're made of..."

"Made of..."

"Wonderful things. You're made of good, wonderful things." Larry finally said.

"Larry they're back," Katalina said pointing at the soldiers and Ivan.

"Come on." They went up the stairs and past the Tuskegee Airmen.

"Gentlemen, could you buy us some time please?" They nodded and went down by the soldiers as Larry, Amelia, and Katalina went the other way and didn't have anywhere else to go. Katalina looked at Amelia and pointed to the one plane hanging from the ceiling. "It'll have to do."

"No! That's the first plane ever made! It's made out of balsa wood and paper." Larry said as Amelia and Katalina climbed onto it.

"It's made out of spruce and canvas and good old-fashioned American ingenuity. Are you coming, or what?" Amelia asked Larry who was still looking at them.

"Out of our way!" Ivan yelled at the Tuskegee Airmen.

"I don't think so."

"They're getting away!"

"Hang on, Mr. Daley. Things are about to get interesting." Amelia said starting the plane.

"A lady pilot!"

"Preposterous!" The Wright brothers said.

"Think again, boys!" Amelia got the plane unhooked from the ceiling and was flying it through the Air and Space.

"Oh, she's good." Suddenly a noise was heard and Amelia look panicked.

"What? What?" Larry yelled.

"One of the wires is jammed. I'm going to have to loosen it. Here, take the stick!"

"No! I'm not gonna... No!"

"I know you've got moxie in you yet."

"Moxie doesn't fly planes! People who have pilots' licenses fly planes!"

"Okay. She's all yours." Amelia said and let go of the stick to fix the wire.

"Katalina you fly it!" Larry yelled looking at her.

"Fly it? I don't even know what it is!" Katalina yelled back at him.

"It's a plane take the stick."

"I don't want it! I don't want the stick!" While Larry and Katalina were arguing they suddenly noticed that the plane was falling. They both grabbed for it at the same time and we're holding it together.

"I've got it." Katalina let go of the stick then.

"Για την αγάπη τον Ερυή μας οώοει(For the love of Hermes save us.)" Katalina said and laid her head on the plane.

"Don't look now, Mr. Daley, but you're flying an airplane!" Amelia said. Larry saw the doors still closed.

"Able! The doors!" Then the plane started to fall again.

"Got it!" Amelia said as she finished fixing the wire and she saw how Larry was flying poorly. "Pull! Pull up!" She yelled then all three of them were screaming as the plane almost hit the floor.

"Yes!"

"Godspeed, Amelia Earhart!"

"Godspeed"

Είμαοτε ζωντανοί. Είμαοτε ζωντανοί! (We're alive. We're alive!)" Katalina yelled.
