Your character is flying to his destination and has to switch airplanes along the way. Because of a delay in his first flight, he has to rush to make the connecting plane. The scanner is broken at the counter, and the stewardess is just about to close the door when your character runs up to board the plane. He hands her the ticket and rushes down the hallway to find his seat.Once he settles in, he pops his earphones in his ears and closes his eyes. As the stewardess begins the announcements, he unplugs one of his headphones, but the speaker is muffled. He shrugs and settles in for the flight. But when the plane is about to land, he hears the announcement again. The plane is not landing in the city he thought. He got on the wrong plane!
What does he do next? How does he react? What important events will he be missing in the process? Does this affect a relationship? A job? A vacation? Does he have the money to get to the right place? How will he get to his original destination?
Oh good writer's prompt. My books is a fantasy with no airplanes. One of my characters would probably order the plane stopped, the other would just go with it and fix the problem when she lands.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jessica! You have me curious about the character who would just g with it and fix the problem later! Hope your writing is going well :)
