Her eyes didn't deceive her, nor was her guess wrong.
These two people did have followed her and Nancy since they boarded the plane.
What Natalia's sixth sense told her was all correct.
That man sneered and raised a gun. Natalia's face tensed. She instinctively attempted to duck.
At this precise moment, a figure dashed past her.
Next, with a loud bang, the man holding a gun was knocked over.
Then, she heard Nancy shout, "Come over!"
Natalia shuddered all over, then hurried over.
She didn't know why these two wanted to target her. But she could tell that they had not investigated her or Nancy and just assumed they were two ordinary women.
Thus, they never thought Nancy could be so dexterous in combat.
From that, she also concluded the two people were killers hired by somebody else.
However, to hunt her and Nancy down, the two even planned to make everyone on the flight die with them. That completely enraged Natalia.
She and Nancy ran to the cabin door and got their parachutes ready. Just then, they saw a plane flying in their direction.
A carrying voice amplified by the horn reverberated in the clear sky.
"Those on the plane ahead, listen up. We're here to save you. As long as you let us take two women on your plane, we'll send a perfectly good plane to pick you up and fly you safely to your destination. If you refuse, then don't blame us for being ruthless."
Natalia's countenance altered at once.
Two banners suddenly draped from that plane, which showed the enlarged photos of Natalia and Nancy.
Many people on the falling plane saw the banners through the windows.
Someone immediately shouted, "I saw them! They're over there!"
That person also pointed at Natalia and Nancy, who were standing at the cabin door.
Natalia and Nancy both looked stern. They never thought that people could be so vicious.
They first put everyone's lives at risk. Then they were turning them against her.
The other passengers were about to swoop on her and Nancy. There was no time to dawdle.
Nancy grabbed her hand and whispered, "Jump!"
Then, she shoved Natalia out of the door and jumped, too.
"Bang!" "Bang!" Someone fired in the air.
But due to the turbulent airflow, the bullets missed.
Natalia felt the cold wind was sweeping in her face, and her body was about to be cut in pieces by the sharp wind.
She could only keep her eyes shut. In this situation, she couldn't even think straight. She didn't know where Nancy was, either.
The parachute opened up with a whoosh. Yet, because of the strong wind, the overwhelming airflow, and the lack of oxygen, she could not control the parachute or observe the surroundings.
At last, she felt something had wrapped around her head more and more tightly. Her head ached so much that she worried it might explode.
Next, she blacked out.
...
When Natalia woke up, she was in a dimly lit place.
She slowly opened her eyes and found that she was in a dingy room.
The walls were built with mud and rocks. It was rather crude. She was lying on a sheet with a moldy smell.
