Okay this is a random plot bunny that jumped into my head a while ago and I decided to write it down. I hope you all like it!
A Painful Flight
"Lightning when will that plane done get here?" Mater asked for the tenth time.
"I don't know," Lightning gritted his teeth, "It should be here any moment!"
Lightning, Sally and Mater where all sitting at BWI airport awaiting their flight to Great Britain to visit Holley and Finn. They had managed to survive the cross-country flight and were now waiting to catch their plane for the final leg of their journey.
Mater had gotten up from his seat and had begun to pace around the section of chairs where Lightning and Sally where sitting.
"Mater," Sally said, "If you're going to pace, please stop walking around my chair over and over again, it makes me nervous."
Mater sighed, and broadened his loop around the waiting room. He was walking backwards when he suddenly bumped into a young woman carrying a large black duffle bag.
"I'm sorry miss-" Mater began when suddenly he yelled, "Miss Holley! What're you doing here?"
"Sid, Finn and I are on our way back to C.H.R.O.M.E. Sid's jet broke down and we were forced to fly commercial," she said with her British accent.
"Hey Holly!" Lightning and Sally greeted her as they walked over, "Where are Finn and Sid?"
"Right here," Finn said, as he and Sid approached them, "So what brings you to the airport?"
"We's actually on our way to see you guys!" Mater grinned, "So we can fly together!"
"That will be fun!" Sally smiled as she put her arm around Lightning.
Just then the jet landed and all six of them boarded the plane. Once they were on board, they put their bags in the overhead compartments and chose their seats. Mater and Sid quickly grabbed the two seats in one row, while Lightning and Sally chose the row front of Mater and Sid, and Finn and Holly took the row in front of everyone else.
As the pilot made his announcements and started to taxi the jet to the end of the runway, Holley pulled a brand new pack of gum from her pocket and passed it around the group. When she got it back however, it was empty. The plane had begun to take off and she decided that when they were airborne, she would find out who had taken more then one piece of gum, and she had a pretty good idea who.
When the plane was at cruising altitude, the pilot gave the all clear for the passengers to release their seat belts. As soon as she removed her seat belt, Holley jumped up from her seat and went back to where Sid and Mater were sitting. She arrived at their seats in time to see Sid stuffing another piece of gun in his mouth. The floor was littered with gum wrappers and assuming they each had an even number, they were chewing five pieces of gum each.
"What do you think you're doing?" she exclaimed.
Mater's cheek bulged horribly when he pushed the wad of gum to one side to answer her, "Chewing gum, want to see how big I can blow this bubble?" Mater said.
"No!" Holly said, exasperated, but he did it anyway. As the bubble grew larger then Mater's face, Holly returned to her seat, pretty sure where this was going.
As soon as she sat down there was a loud pop and the sound of Sid laughing hysterically. Everyone turned around in time to see Mater running to the bathroom with his face covered with gum.
Sighing, Holley pulled a book out of her purse and began to read, hoping that the flight ahead wasn't going to be as painful as it looked right now. She could hear Sally and Lightning playing a game of checkers on Sally's iPad, and Finn had pulled out a paper tablet and a pen and had begun to write down notes for an upcoming mission. Suddenly there was another pop and Holley turned in time to see Sid racing for the bathroom, covered in gum. Yep, she thought, this is going to be a painful flight.
