The Silver Bullet

An Airport attendant helps Amara and the passengers aboard the Shepherd One down the stairs of the mobile staircase. The Swiss Guards guard the old man and alight before Amara, while she took up the rear. Her phone rings, it was Cindy.


"Has the surgery begun?" Amara spoke into her phone.


"Yeah. The doctor assured me that if she makes it through the operation she would live. I just pray it works out sis. I wanted to watch the surgery, they didn't let me in though." Cindy, her younger sister said from the other end.


"Ugh... you're really gross Cindy. What were you thinking?"


"C'mon sis, I wanna start getting used to the sight blood. Can't do that when I'm already a practicing doctor."


"Oh what about school? I hope you are not lagging behind."


"Nope, just a couple of skipped quizzes and assignments. I can make that all up when all this is over. That place is so noisy, where are you now?"
