Finish the story begins with:
“Delphine always wanted to pilot her father’s plane and when he forgot his keys on her tenth birthday, she knew that taking off would be easy.”
The plane taxied along the runway and crashed into the hanger, costing her father thousands of pounds. In spite of this she had never lost her obsession with aircraft and she was now a very accomplished pilot.
The Brigadier introduced Delphine to Marg and her team and outlined his plans for the assault on the Miners Hill complex.
“I have reliable information of a huge stash of bullion and cash secreted here, the proceeds of drug trafficking. The object is to smash the drug factory and capture or kill the Dickus brothers. This will save thousands of young lives from the evils of drug addiction. The rewards for success are huge as the proceeds will be shared in bonuses for all.”
Then from the depths of the Brazilian jungle a wolf howled eerily, breaking the silence of the jungle.
Doctor Dickus was in the complex with his pet American wolverine.

Love the way you use the prompt to continue your story. Those Dickus brothers are gonna rue the day! 🙂 Well done!
Thanks Yolanda for your great response ~ I think the writing may definitely be on the wall for the dreaded Dickus bros.
Maybe they will finally take down the Dickus brothers! Cannot wait to see where this goes next John. As always the story continues to be engaging…Thanks for another excellent addition! Be well… ^..^

You have an amazing week too John!
Wonderful how you wove the prompt into your story. I’m with bbso2you…. they need to tke down the Dickus brothers!!! Great story….
Many thanks CQ ~ I have a feeling even a serpent could never wriggle out of this assault ~ Thanks for the lovely comment ~ 🙂
Good to know he’s home before the attack! Since she has experience of crashing planes, maybe Delphine can crash a plane into the drug factory 🙂
I think you are on the right track there Ali ~ I now have another character to look after ~ Thanks for your always perceptive remarks. 🙂
Great job of connecting the prompt to your ongoing story. I like the way you introduced that Delphine has been obsessed with planes since she was 10 and that her obsession paid off.
Thanks Lisa I,m so glad you enjoyed this episode ~ I now have a new character to look after 🙂
Good episode, John. Looks like a dangerous plan, but one that has a good chance of succeeding. We’ll be waiting to see what happens.:) — Suzanne
