Chapter 7

The End

Air Force 1

Mac eventually found her husband and son, she was relieved to see them alive

Rod: Thank god Mac, are you OK, where are the girls, Kate?

Mac immediately started to untie her husband and son,

Mac: the girls are off the plane, they parachuted out, and Mom is dead, she got shot

Finally the 2 men were untied and Mac hugged them both, she was so glad they were OK.

Rod: Mac that is a bomb, it is going to go off in about 20 minutes

Mac got worried, she immediately picked up the phone she still had and called the Sit room again

Mac: Warren, it is Mac again, I have some news

Warren: Go ahead Ma'am, Rod and Horace are fine, but there is a bomb on board

She described the bomb to them and there suggestion was that since she was above the Atlantic ocean now, the best thing for them to do would be to open a door and throw it out, as it was timed it would not go off until the time, they did this and then went to the cockpit, the 2 terrorist there had left and eventually they were found parachuting out of the plane, to escape knowing that the end was near.

Mac, Rod and Horace made their way to the cockpit.

Mac turned the radio on

Mac: This is the President can anyone hear me

Officer: Yes Ma'am loud and clear

Mac: We now have control of Air force 1, now how do we get home?

Officer: Ma'am have you ever flown an aircraft before

Mac: No, but Rod was in the air defence for 3 years

Officer: Great, Ma'am I will give Mr Calloway some instructions, now since we cannot land on auto pilot the first Gentleman will have to fly the plane

Although Rod spent 3 years working for the United States air force he had never flown a plane so big before

Officer: we are going to direct you to an airport in Reykjavik

They gave instructions to Rod and he flew the plane

Rod: You both better put your seat belts on, I haven't done this for a while

Rod joked trying to lift the atmosphere a bit. Mac was just glad to have found her husband and son, she thought she could have been burying them as well as her mother

Mac: Officer have you any word on the condition of my daughters

Officer: Yes Ma'am they have just arrived in Washington, they are both going to be OK,

Mac: And what about Kelly?

Officer: Ma'am her baby was distressed she went into labour, and had an emergency caesarean section, she has a beautiful baby girl who is going to be just fine

Mac thought about it, the baby was 3 month's early

Mac: Who is with my children, I need to know

Officer: Ma'am Sue Brantley is with them she has been since they arrived home.

Eventually they reached Iceland and they left and went onto another plane and were flown home to D.C. The first family took a well deserved holiday for 2 weeks in Camp David, where they were helping their Kids, especially Rebecca and Amy to recover from the traumatic experience. Mac considered resigning, but her family told her not to they did not want terrorists to stop her from doing her job, besides they made her see that Kate would not have wanted her death to be in vain.

Amy had nightmares almost every night and the first few nights they were home, Rod slept on his own because Mac shared her bed with her 2 daughters who were both very scared and nervous, Rebecca did not want to be left alone at all.

Kate was buried next to her husband, Mac was devastated at the loss of her Mother, and her only comfort was that she shot the bastard who did it to her and to Rebecca.

Kelly's little girl was OK and to honour the memory of Kate, Kelly named her Kate.

The President held a memorial service for every person who died on Air force 1, that day including Kate, Jim and Vince.
