The two casts had been in the air for about two hours now, heading north-east from LA. By now, they were somewhere above Canada. The jet was filled with the cast of Mackenzie Falls and So Random. Directors and such would be catching up to the two in a few days. The plane was quiet, most-likely still grumpy about the fact that they had to sit with an opposing cast member. Sonny sat by Chad, and had dozed off, her head resting on his shoulder. He had insisted upon getting the window seat because "Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't do the aisle seat." She had obliged merely to shut him up, only resulting in one of their "fine, fine, good, good" episodes for about twenty minutes until their cast members became fed up. Chad had dozed off as well, his head resting on hers.
Behind them, Zora sat with Chastity, who was reading a Tween Weekly Magazine. Zora was still grumpy that she wasn't allowed to explore the insides of the plain, and took to staring out the window. Suddenly, she saw the golden hair touch the chocolate brown between the two seats in front of her, and had an evil thought. When she was sure no one was watching, she reached her hands delicately forward, until she had her fingers pinched firmly around a strand of golden hair, and a strand of chocolate, and with a swift movement yanked until the strands were free.
Chad and Sonny shot up shouting an "Ouch!" in unison. The two were holding the backs of their heads, and glared at each other.
"What did you do that for?!" Sonny yelled at Chad.
"Me? What did YOU do that for?!" Chad retorted.
"Well if you di-…. ZORA!" Sonny whirled around, but the 12 year old was long gone.
Chad began to shift in his seat, fiddling with the seatbelt.
"Where are you going?" Sonny asked, a bit calmer, but with an annoyed look on her face.
"To find that brat and get revenge for my beautiful hair. NO ONE touches Chad Dylan Cooper's hair except Chad Dylan Cooper!"
Sonny rolled her eyes, and heard a soft ding. She looked up to see the seatbelt light popped on. She grabbed Chad's arm as he stood up and pulled him back down.
"Put your belt back on." She said as she heard a commotion behind them.
"Sonny, Sonny, Sonny… Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't take direction from flashing lights."
She ignored him and turned to see Zora being drug back to her seat by a burly flight attendant.
"Miss, I'm going to have to ask you to put on your seatbelt." The man said calmly, as he set her down.
"How about you say hi to lefty?" Zora said defensively, struggling to stand up against the man three times her size.
"Zora, please just listen to him. I'm sure the light will go off soon." Sonny assured her, and she calmed down. The man shot Sonny a grateful look as he walked to the cockpit, where the flight attendants' seat belts were.
"E-VIL" Zora hissed after him.
Chad was about to turn around and face her when suddenly the jet began to shake violently. The two casts all gasped, and clung to their neighbor. Sonny heard Chad scream, and then Tawni and Portlyn scream, and then everyone else in unison as the shaking became more violent. An earsplitting sound broke through the crowd, and Sonny could see the front of the plane splitting apart from where they were. She clung closer to Chad, as he clung to her. Metal scraped against metal, as the front of the plane opened up to grey sky, then shifted to the forest below.
It was then that the safety equipment dropped down in front of them. Each person scrambled to put on the mask, as one of the flight attendants had instructed before take off. Nico helped Portlyn out, because she had forgotten, same with Skyler and Tawni. Tawni claimed she was too pretty to wear it, but Sonny from across the aisle told her the mask was to protect her lip gloss and she quickly put it on. Before long though, everyone was screaming and clinging to each other like they had been before. The trees were coming closer all too quickly.
The dense forest had probably managed to cushion the impact slightly. No one knew what to do when the plane thudded against ground, then filled with a thick eerie liquid. Chad gasped as his head went under. Sonny looked wildly around under the fluid. She began to fiddle with her buckle, and was relieved when it came loose. She swam to the surface and gasped for breath. One by one, the two casts heads popped up, a few of the girls- and Chad – squealing their disgust at the sticky liquid that surrounded and covered them.
"We've got to get out of here!" Sonny yelled at them, they swam towards her as she looked around. She swam towards where the cockpit once was, and out into the slight light of day. The clouds looked menacing and lightning and thunder struck all around them. One by one, they swam to the shoreline, and crawled onto the dusty ground, gasping for air, and coughing the mucky water from their lungs. They all shook violently, and though safe on the shoreline, passed out one by one, too shocked to speak.

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear…" The words filled her mind as she wearily raised her head. She opened her eyes to see Marshall pacing back and forth nervously, dabbing at his bald head with his hanky.
"Marshall?" She asked wearily, as she struggled to get up, her hands and legs feeling odd. The world was spinning and she could barely make anything out around her.
"Sonny!" He exclaimed, sounding relieved. "Stay still, stay still…" He spoke nervously, putting a hand on her side to keep her laying down on the shore. He suddenly turned to another man in a white coat, to which there were a few of in the clearing. "She's awake!" He told the man.
The man approached her quickly.
"Wh-what happened?" Sonny stammered, still out of it.
"Good, she can still speak. That means we can still communicate with them for awhile, before they go full wolf." The scientist trailed off.
"Oh dear…" Marshall said again.
"M-Marshall, what's g-going on?" Sonny said, fearfully.
"Sonny, I'd tell you, but Mr. Condor is on his way, and wants to tell all of you together." Marshall told her, kneeling by her. "Just stay down and rest…" She could see in his eyes that he was pleading her to just do what he said. She groaned and shut her eyes as her body ached.
Marshall stood quickly, hearing a groan. He ran over to another, and Sonny heard him give Chastity the same speech. Then Zora, then Chad, who seemed to be fairly close by.
Chad was pulling the "Chad Dylan Cooper doesn't lay on dirt" though he sounded miserable.
"Chad just shut up and listen to him." Sonny said, and heard Chad grumbling.
Suddenly the sound of beating helicopter blades came closer and closer, before the sound was almost deafening. Sonny felt like her skin was crawling as the air blew the dust up and swirled it all around them. The noise became softer until it stopped. Oddly, Sonny ffelt as though she could feel Mr. Condor step out, and she swallowed hard as she felt his gaze tearing through the clearing. She heard Marshall walk over and talk with Mr. Condor.
"Which one is which?" Mr. Condor asked.
"We lined them up according to their casts." Marshall said, his voice fidgety. "Zora is on the far end, followed by Nico and Grady, then Tawni and Sonny. Chad is next to Sonny, then Portlyn, Chastity, Ferguson and Skyler. Everyone survived, obviously, but…" he trailed off.
One of the scientists approached them.
"Good news sir." He began, and then talked quieter to where Sonny couldn't hear him.
"Good." Mr. Condor said before stepping forward and clearing his throat. "Cast members of Mackenzie Falls and So Random." He started. Each member groaned and raised their heads. "You've been turned into wolves."
