Why This Must Be Read: This is kind of a horror AU of whizzy's Black Helicopters at Dawn fic (whizzy calls it "more of an alpha version than a remix"). It's an alternative version of what happens when Rodney starts talking to a voice on the radio, and as much as I love the Black Helecopters series, I love this one even more. It's dark and it's true horror - when it finally reveals what's been going on it's a genuine shock to the system and gave me serious chills, which doesn't happen often.
*PLEASE NOTE THE MCD TAG*
"No, I would prefer not to hold, actually.
"It's an emergency.
"Why else would I be calling the line dedicated to emergencies?
"I think there's been a plane crash.
"No, not a jet. A small plane, a private plane.
"I heard the mayday over the radio last night, and then I just heard another one this morning.
"Well, I don't know, aside from maybe the fact that my radio is connected to a fifteen meter dish antenna and yours isn't?
"He said he crashed approximately eighty miles south east of Juneau.
"No, I'm sorry, but he didn't give GPS coordinates.
"Registration number CGLZM.
"One, the pilot.
"Thank you, oh thank you so much.
"So do you think there's any way you could call me back to let me know how the whole rescue thing goes? Because I- Hello? Hello?"
