Into the Sunset in 155
by Alisia D. Crede
Author's notes in chapter one.
***
Mile-High Club
Nora was terribly excited. In all of her years as a professor and lawyer, she had never yet been on a plane. When she was still teaching, she always drove or took the train to the conferences she attended. Now, for the first time in her 60-odd years of life, she was about to defy gravity.
The plane sped down the runway and lifted off of the ground. Nora sat back in her seat and chomped ferociously on her gum, trying to ease the pressure in her ears as they began to climb. Oddly, it didn't seem to be working. She chewed harder. The pressure increased.
At 25,000 feet, her head exploded, spraying grey matter all over the passengers on either side of her.
It was determined that Nora's death was directly related to her complete inability to adjust to pressure. This did not come as a surprise to anyone in the district attorney's office.
