"All passengers," a female voice announced, "In a few minutes, we are landing on Tough Pearl International Airport or Perlough's airport. Please pack up your luggages and prepare for landing. Thank you for joining us in this trip."

"Nice," I commented as I stood up from my seat, just like everyone else did.

"What about our weapons though? The guards will pretty much find out that we are carrying weapons," Storm pointed out.

"Tell that to Ray," Nev answered sarcastically.

"Wait, why m--"

"Oh! I got an idea!" Jayden exclaimed.

"We're open for suggestions, Jay."

"Let's ask Ray to teleport his way out of the airport with our weapons. We later meet up with him outside once we're done with security checks!" Jayden suggested.

And I admit it hit me.

"Why does it involve me? Nev can just fly over the airport!" He complained.

"But the government is after us, Ray. If they spotted Nev or Athaliah in her phoenix form, they'd pretty much report it," Storm told him.

"But if you teleported out without anyone knowing, we could still get our weapons," I added.

"But you guys know that I teleported!"

"You get the point."

"Ray, for once in your life, please agree with me!" Nev yelled.

"Never."

"Guys, we're landing..." Athaliah told us. I took a peek through the window and sure enough, the runway is rushing underneath the jet.

"Ray, it's now or never..." I asked him one final time.

He sighed, "Fine. Gimme your weapons."

"But my weapons... I need them..." Athaliah muttered.

"Don't worry, Athaliah. We'll get them ASAP," I reassured her.

"I hope so."

I then gave my ice daggers and katana to Ray. Everyone else surrendered their weapons to Ray.

"This is so heavy..." Ray complained.

He then teleported out.

A few minutes later, we landed on the airport. It was our time to exit the jet and go to the airport. I really hope everything goes smoothly...

We walked down the jet, ignoring the very deafening decibels it makes as we stepped down.

We entered the airport via the arrivals section. We placed our luggage into the X-ray machine and let ourselves get checked by security guards.

Oh wait, we don't have luggages.

I went in first. The guard eyed me very carefully, as if he thinks I'm very suspicious.

He then checked my pockets for deadly objects, just like any security guards would do.

"You are coming with me."

"Wait, what?! I didn't have any weapons!" I countered.

"All Projects are denied access of public places."

Here it goes again. I gotta hate discrimination. I mean, what the Nether is the big deal of "normal" people with us Projects?!

"I'm not a project! What are you talking about?" I lied.

"Well, I don't see anyone with razor-sharp claws, a tail, and I don't see anyone dye their hair with a red-orange-yellow pattern."

"I... just like fire! Yes! That's why I like red... things..." Athaliah continued.

"And as for this, it's just for a cosplay," Lion added, gesturing to his claws and tail.

"Then I can see you two are lying. And perhaps you..." He pointed to Nev, Storm, Milarite, and Jay, "You probably are Projects as well, no?"

"What?! No..." Nev told him.

The security guard sighed, "You three..." He pointed to me, Lion, and Athaliah, "Are coming with me..."

"Why us...? I told you; we're not Projects!"

"LIAR!"

The guard then punched me.

Ow, it hurts!

Athaliah stepped forward and kicked the guard in the stomach in return.

"Guards!"

All nearby guards immediately pointed their swords and bows to us.

"Put your hands in the air!" One of them yelled as people around us started to freak out and run.

"Ah, screw it!" Nev exclaimed as she suspended in the air and shot purple shards against all of the guards.

We took that as our cue to run before anymore guards interfere.

Suddenly, alarm bells started ringing. We didn't know what that meant, but I was pretty sure it signals that the airport is in danger.

But I don't blame them, because we can be a threat if we want to.

We continued to run (but in Nev's case, flying).

Suddenly, Athaliah tripped and face-planted on the quartz floor.

I ran back and helped her along with Milarite. I pulled her up.

"Thanks, and sorry. Tripped 'cuz of high heels," she gestured to her boots, which is indeed high-heeled.

We continued to run, but more guards appeared in our way. But Nev took care of that.

Finally, the exit/entrance of the airport, which is made of glass, as guards chased us from behind.

We dashed through the door.

"Arrows are flying. We are dying!" We heard a raspy voice say.

It was Milarite's.

I took a second to turn around.

I saw arrows flying towards us with the guards poised as if they shot it.

Oh wait, they did shoot it.

But it doesn't matter anymore. We're nearly dead anyway.

I closed my eyes and expected something to pierce through my body.

Wait, I didn't...?

I opened my eyes to see a truck stop by.

Welp, we are saved by a truck.

But we continued to run, for the sake of our survival...

Narrator (about 20 minutes later)

The President was checking his mails again. There were a lot, even more than 1987. And he knew he still had to check his files.

After he checked his who-knows what email, he received another email. That added to his 2016 new emails.

"When will these emails stop!" He complained.

Out of frustration, he pressed a remote that activated the flat screen in his office. He was careful enough not to press the red button though.

Then a news program flashed onto the screen.

"News alert!

We are receiving new reports of an attack taking place on Tough Pearl International Airport or Perlough International Airport or PIA. The said attack happened about 20 minutes ago, costing the lives of 27 guards and wounded 35 people, including 11 civillians.

According to the witnesses, they are claiming that at least seven Projects have caused the mayhem. Although witnesses claim they saw the attack, Perlough Police Department is still investigating the raid.

"After receiving the reports of an attack in the airport, we decided to come investigste. It's because the safety of the people is at stake here," one police officer commented.

Although the motives of the attack is still yet unknown, the police shut down part of the airport in response to the attacks and is still trying to investigate the incident and identify the suspects.

In response to the attacks, the police also have vowed to tighten Perlough's security. T--"

He then shut the flat screen down. "The Projects are at it again! They're really getting on my nerves..."

He then remembered the Projects, some of which are already considered as Alphas, and more may possibly become an Alpha if time passes by.

He then thought of Operation Lightning...

But then, he thought of another way to stop, or at least slow them down...

Just then, his telephone rang. He picked it up.

"Hello! You just reached the Office of the President! How can I be of service?"

The voice then replied.

"Ah, well, if it isn't my spy! How are things doing? Any updates?"

-=-<|>-=-

AHHHH!!!! AN UPDATE!!!!

I can't help myself lmao.

Anyways, do I have something important to say...?

Wait, none.

Where will Team Olympus go next? Will Athaliah trip again? What will the President do next? And who was the spy the President is talking to? Find out next time on Minecraft: Arctic Fox!

Thanks for reading! And please don't forget to vote, comment, and follow! All of those will be greatly appreciated!
