The screens of the computers go black, then a red font appears and reads,"Mission 77- Connecting with players"...Then little boxes showing the names of the rooms lighted up, and the game responded. "Players connected. Game Start!" The screens filled with simulated controls of an airplane. The people, including Salem, did nothing. "What are we waiting for?"asked Majed, confused.

"Oh, we must wait for the ID and the airport hackers to finish. Just keep track of the meters on the panel. Make sure they aren't low."
