The co-pilot was able to land the plane safely. As soon as they landed, there were news crews swarming the airport. There was also an ambulance that rushed the captain of the plane to the hospital.
Alex and Jack sneaked past all the news crews in the airport and went to the car rental place. The snow was coming down hard and Alex zipped up his jacket has high as it went and snapped his hood around his neck with a button.
They rushed into the car rental building. As Jack was talking to the man behind the desk, Alex spotted a familiar face. Sabina Please!
"Hi Sabina!" Alex almost jumped. Sabina twirled around and faced Alex.
"Oh my goodness! Hello Alex!" she exclaimed. "What are you doing in Boston?"
"Jack is visiting some friends," said Alex.
"My father is doing a story about the New England Aquarium," said Sabina.
"Cool. I've always wanted to go to one," said Alex. "Maybe we could meet up and do something."
"Defiantly," she answered with a huge smile. She heard her parents calling her and she told them that Alex was there. They came back into the building.
"Hello Alex, how are you?" Mrs. Pleasure asked.
"I'm great. Mr. Pleasure is doing great also."
Sabina's parents walked out of the building. On the way out, Sabina told Alex to call her on her cell phone.
When they were driving to their hotel in their rental car, Alex told Jack about seeing Sabina.
"You should see her tomorrow or the day after that," said Jack.
"I certainly will," said Alex.
MEANWHILE
"Who was the child who forced you out of the plane?" Asked Dr. Three from the Scorpia conference room in Venice, Italy.
"I planted a bug before I jumped out of the plane. I listened to the after math in my ear piece. It was a boy named Alex Rider," the man who had attempted to hijack the plane explained to Dr. Three.
"Alex Rider is the boy responsible for the death of Julia Rothman and Nile," said Dr. Three. "A client hired five of our men for some work. He offered to pay millions. He told me the men's orders were to kill Alex Rider. Now we know his location. I shall tell our client."
"How does the client of ours know about Alex Rider?" asked the man.
"I asked him the same thing when I talked to him. He said that he helped a man named Herod Sayle capture a man-of-war. He also helped Sayle identify many fish that he hunted. Alex Rider is responsible for the killing of Herod Sayle even though he didn't fire the gun that killed Sayle. Our client is doing something that he fears Alex Rider and MI6 could attempt to stop. He wants Rider out of the way," said Dr. Three.
"And who is this client?" asked the man.
"Robert Clay, the marine biologist."
