A couple of hours later, Simon pulled out seven sandwiches from his bag. He passed them around and walked over to the cock pit. "I made you a sandwich," Simon held out the sandwich to Greg,
"Oh... Thanks," Greg grabbed it out of his hand and placed it on a little tray table near him. Simon awkwardly walked back to his seat. Finn and Marceline stared out the window. "This view is amazing," Marceline sighed,
"I know," Finn smiled,
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure,"
"What was with all the yelling while I was in the bathroom?"
"Nothing... Simon and Greg were arguing, that's all," Finn blushed,
"Oh right... Of course, what was I thinking?" she giggled. The clouds in the sky were bright orange and pink as the sun shone through them. Phoebe sighed as she watched Finn and Marceline talk.
Finn checked the time, it was 6:25pm. They had been in the air for ten hours straight, 'fifteen more hours,' Finn thought. He looked at the rest of the group, most of them were falling asleep, including Greg. Finn stood up and walked over to a bench, he turned on the coffee machine. Five minutes later, he walked over to the pilot, he could tell he was about to be knocked out cold. "Here... You'll need this," Finn tapped on his shoulder,
"Wha-! Oh... Thanks kid," Greg grabbed the coffee, took a sip and went back to flying the plane. Finn went back to the bench and bent down, he opened the mini fridge below it. "Do you mind if I take something out of the fridge?!" Finn asked Greg,
"Sure thing!" he yelled back, Finn pulled out a chicken and a bowl of salad. He pulled out plates, knives and forks and set up dinner.
A half an hour later, Finn finished preparing. He walked to each set of chairs, ony by one. He first went to Simon and SP, handing them a plate each. He then went to Phoebe and Bonnibel, which was really awkward, he then went to the pilot and gave him a plate aswell. Finally, he went back to his chair with Marceline sitting across from him. "Thanks Finney," Marceline woke up and stretched,
"No probs," Finn smiled, placing the plate down infront of her,
"This looks good," Marceline licked her lips,
"Heh... Thanks," Finn sat down and started to eat. After thirty minutes, everyone finished. Finn went around and picked up everyone's plates and washed them in the sink. He went back to his seat and checked his phone, he got a message from Jake. 'Just wanted to say that Lady misses you and she hopes that you're okay 3' . Finn sent one back, 'I miss her too :)'. He put his phone away and looked up. Marceline was staring at him. "What?" Finn laughed,
"He really cares about you, doesn't he?"
"Yeah..."
"Must be nice,"
"Your dad cares about you too, you know?"
"I hope,"
"I bet he does,"
"Thanks Finn," Marceline smiled, leant over the table and patted him on the shoulder. "You're a great guy,"
"Heh, thanks Marcy," Finn smiled. After an hour, Finn placed Marceline's phone back in her bag, placed his in his pocket and everyone fell asleep.
Finn woke up to the sound of cracking and rumbles. A shout came from the cock pit and all around him. He quickly opened his eyes. He was facing the window and outside were deep dark clouds. Lightning shooting out of them. Finn looked over at everyone else, they were all panicing. A lightning shot hit the plane, sending electricity through out it. SP screamed at the sight. He stood up and ran to the cock pit. Greg was trying to control the plane. "How far away are we from Mount Everest?!" Finn yelled over the lightning,
"We're very close! About fifty metres away!"
"That's so close! Where are we?!"
"We've made it past Hillary Step!"
"That's great!"
"Not in the situation we're in, bunny!"
"What are we going to do?!" as Finn asked this, a straight face appeared on Greg. He turned to everyone else and told them to be quiet. "Everyone, calm down! There are six parachutes in the back! You all need to take one and jump out of the plane!"
"What?! We're not leaving you here! Two of us will share one!" Finn shouted,
"You're a good kid, Finn!" Greg agreed, Finn ran to the back and passed everyone one each, leaving him with out one. Another lightning shot hit the plane. "Finn! Put this on!" Marceline shoved the parachute to his chest,
"I can't!"
"I'll grab one when we jump! It's okay!"
"Thanks Marcy!" Finn hugged her, the plane rumbled. A crack appeared on the side of the plane, causing wind to whip their hair all around. Everyone forced the parachutes on besides Marceline. They all grabbed their bags and made their way to the side of the plane. Greg ran over to the door and ripped it open. "GO!" he yelled across the plane,
"I'll go first!" Bonnibel yelled as she ran toward the door and jumped out,
"Here goes nothing!" SP screamed and followed after Bonnibel,
"Good luck, guys!" Phoebe dived out of the plane,
"Jeronimo!" Simon went after Phoebe,
"GO YOU TWO!" Greg yelled at Finn and Marceline,
"Hold on Marcy!" Finn yelled, another lighting shot hit the plane. Marceline pushed Finn out of the plane, not holding on first. "NO!" Finn yelled, he watched on as the plane went further and further away as he fell. He was becoming more worried by the second. Finally, he saw a figure falling toward him. It was Marceline. She gripped onto him with full force. "Did ya miss me?!" she laughed,
"More than you think!" Finn hugged her, he pulled onto his parachute as he saw Greg jump out behind them. He looked down below. Bonnibel, SP, Phoebe and Simon had already pulled on their parachutes. They all floated in the sky. The plane exploded in the distance. "Is everyone okay?!" Finn yelled, still holding onto Marceline as she gripped tightly. They all gave him a thumbs up, staring at the fire in the sky. "Now what?" Marceline slumped.
As they floated down, Finn rummudged through his pocket and pulled out his phone. It was 8:45am. He put it back in and looked at their surroundings. They were really high in the sky before. He couldn't believe they were still floating. He couldn't see Mount Everest anywhere. 'Did Greg know what he was talking about before?' Finn thought. After a few more minutes, they made it to the ground. It was freezing cold, they felt like they were about to get frost bite. They all went through their clothes and put on winter clothes. Phoebe took out her fire Orb and held it out. Everyone walked up to her and warmed themselves up with the heat from the element, except for Greg, who was still just landing and concentrating on surving it. "Thanks for catching me, Finn," Marceline walked up to Finn and hugged him,
"You're welcome," Finn smiled and hugged her back, they looked like a big ball of nylon,
"So... Where are we?" SP looked around,
"I can't see Mount Everest anywhere," Bonnibel crossed her arms,
"Don't you kids see it?" Greg rolled his eyes and looked up at them,
"See what?" Finn asked, letting go of Marceline,
"WE'RE ON MOUNT EVEREST!" he pointed upwards, he was right. They were halfway to the top. Everyone cheered. "Why are we here anyway?" Greg asked, not wanting it to be a dumb reason. They all looked at each other. "I'll tell him," Simon said as he walked up to Greg. He explained what happened back at the school to Greg and what they were doing. "How do you know it wasn't some kind of joke or it was just a weird dream? Greg asked,
"Well... This for example," Phoebe held out the fire element so Greg could see it this time,
"Wow..."
"See?" Phoebe placed it back in her bag,
"Can you help us find the last three?" Finn asked,
"Please! We need all the help we can get," Bonnibel smiled at him, he stared at them for a moment,
"Alright fine... I'll help you find the last three elements," Greg sighed, they all smiled at eachother and made their way up the mountain at 9:00am.
