Prompt by https://rochellewisofffields.wordpress.com/2016/01/06/8-january-2016/
“Mayday! Mayday! The first engine is on fire.” Mike said to the forward air controler.
“You got to pull up Jack, pull up.” His first officer Danny said in a calm voice.
“Extinguish the first engine.” Mike ordered, after all he was the captain,
he knew it was a risky maneuver but it had to be done.
“I can´t do that.” Danny replied with a stern face, he was unflinching.
Suddenly the door opened and in came their father.
“Again playing with the buttons?” He asked his ten year old twins.
“We want to be a pilot, just like you daddy.” Mike said.
Stay Frosty gents and gentesses.
CRAZY LIFE 
Where’s my parachute? G:)
You forgot it while you were waiting to board and where typing out a poem
Great prompt! Sounds like a desperate manoeuvre!
Hi there, thank you for reading. Yes, it was quite hectic for those two monsters.
That was really good. 😄
PS hope it went okay yesterday
Better not talk about yesterday.
Glad you liked the little story, kids…..
Oh dear!
I would actually use the word “bastards”, seems more appropiate
Oh dear!
*wheew* I wouldn’t want to be a passenger on that plane 😄
Appreciate you reading it, to me they seem a bit of a kamikaze those two
Ah, kids will be…. Well, we’ll just skip the many things kids, especially 10-tear-old male twins, can be. Is this a slice of life tale? 😕
Appreciate you taking the time reading, and no I´m actually single and ready to mingle, no kids no dogs or cats, not those type of responsibilities, it just came all out of my strange imagination.
Pretty good, Charly, I like this one.
Thank´s Trent
Usually, when my kids played with buttons and levers it spelled trouble for Dad. Hope that’s not the case for this guy.
Hopefully when they took off they didn´t crash because of the kids leaving some button screwed up, maybe I should do a sequel and see where in the world they end up.
Appreciate you taking the time and Reading.
Watch out – it’s a plane, no, it’s a writer! 🙂
Hey there Christy, glad you dropped by and read it. A writer… a little nutty one
Great “imitation” story ~ when young we often want to be our parents. Thank goodness I wasn’t required to be a mechanical engineer!
Thank you, required to be a mechanical….what? I can´t get y head wrapped around that kind of line of work.
Have you read Ender’s Game? This reminds me of the book 🙂 Well done 🙂
Never read that, what´s about?
Kids trained to kill aliens, but they are told that this is just a game, like a video game, not a real thing. Great book. Check it out, Orson Scott Card. There is also a movie.
Sounds like a horror movie, just kidding. If they have it in Spain I´ll check it out.
No, not at all. I am sure you will find the book too. He has many great books.
Whew! It seemed so realistic, I was expecting an explosion at the end. Nice one, Charly!
Thank you very much Amy
This is so much fun, too bad it had to end so early. Kids really live in the moment. I remember, from eons ago, when I was sailing the high seas–until I had to go to bed.
Dear Charley,
I raised three boys, no twins, but certainly a houseful of energy and imagination! They do love to push buttons. Cute story.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Like Suzanne, you managed to pull me in, anticipate something horrific, and then soothe me with sweet play. Going forward, I’ll have to be less gullible in my reading! 😉 Nicely told.
Thank you very much, really appreciate the comment and you taking the time to read.
