The flight wasn't as bad as he thought it would be. The packs were stuffed with an outfit they would have to change into during the flight, which meant taking turns to get up and use the restrooms in the back of the craft. The packs were also filled with a light blanket and a tube of some pink substance that was supposed to be a snack. Chris wondered if it was drugged, but realized that they didn’t have to do anything extra to placate their cargo - most looked like they believed themselves dead already.

The kids aboard would only cry if they were hidden under their blankets, or involuntarily during their brief naps. Chris almost willed himself to cry, to show emotion, to feel something more than the numbness that had settled in his chest and refused to vacate. For the time being, however, he was glad that we wasn't bawling his eyes out and begging some higher power to crash the plane on some deserted island where he could live out the rest of his life in peace.

Chris leaned his head back against his chair, thinking of how his life was about to change. From what little Jeremy had shared with him, he knew it wasn’t going to be an easy ride.

One of the men in suits motioned for Chris to get up, as it was his turn to change into the outfit inside his pack. He stood carefully, not trusting his footing on a moving plane. The sight of the men in suits standing so comfortably made him jealous, as it was obviously not their first flight.

The restroom was small, and only had a small toilet in one corner, a sink, soap dispenser, and toilet paper. He wondered if he should just wipe his hands on his pants to dry them when he spotted an air dry machine near the door. Sighing, Chris began to change out of his drab grey school clothes into the tight black outfit that had to be stretched to fit his body. It hugged every curve of his figure, which he most certainly wasn’t happy about.
