Eight-year-old Toby stood near the grand glass windows of the family mansion.
The morning sun brightened the white marble floor inside the huge foyer.
Outside on the private helipad, a sleek aircraft waited for the rich family.
Today was supposed to be the happiest day for his uncle Mark.
Mark was a wealthy businessman who owned a major energy company.
He was getting married to Victoria, a woman nobody in the family trusted.
Toby held his small toy airplane tightly in his cold, nervous hands.
He had spent the early morning playing quiet games near the rear exit doors.
While playing near the back deck, Toby had seen Victoria near the helicopter.
She had opened a panel near the side motor with a small metal tool.
Toby had watched her slide a strange black box deep inside the wires.
When she finished, her cold face turned toward the clear mansion windows.
Toby had hidden behind a tall pillar before she could spot his outline.
Now his heart beat fast against his small ribs inside his dark jacket.
He knew he had to tell his uncle before anyone climbed inside that aircraft.
The heavy doors opened as guests walked toward the grand outdoor terrace.
Mark stepped out into the light, wearing a perfect custom dark suit.
Victoria walked right beside him, smiling at all the wealthy corporate guests.
She adjusted her sharp dark blazer and pretended to be a loving bride.
Toby took a deep breath and ran out onto the white marble floor.
Toby: Uncle Mark, please do not go near that helicopter!
Mark stopped walking and looked down at his young nephew in pure confusion.
Victoria instantly turned around, her brown eyes flashing with sudden wild rage.
She stepped forward quickly before Mark could ask the child any real questions.
Victoria: Shut your mouth, you little pest!
She reached out forcefully and pushed Toby away from her expensive wedding dress.
The small boy stumbled backward hard and landed flat on the bright floor.
His knees hit the hard surface, and tears sprang into his wide eyes.
Mark: What are you doing to my nephew?!
Mark rushed forward immediately, his face showing total shock and deep anger.
He dropped to his knees and pulled Toby protectively into his arms.
Mark: Are you out of your mind touching him like that?
Toby pointed his trembling hand directly toward the dark aircraft waiting outside.
Toby: She put a bomb inside the aircraft motor panel!
