 Classification: JCL OMEGA-BLACK
 Transcript Begins:

(Muffled turbulence, seatbelt chimes, Arabic chatter in background. Two male voices speak clearly near the cabin door.)

Cultist 1 (guarding door): [Chuckling] You know, brother, it feels strange. Everyone behind us panics, but for us…this is just another step.

Cultist 2 (at door, laughing lightly): Yes. Like walking to the corner shop. Except this time, the shop is paradise.

(They share a laugh. Footsteps. Door creaks open—Cultist 1 enters the cockpit where another cultist is piloting.)

Cultist 1: How is it, my brother? Flying smooth?

Pilot Cultist: [Calmly] Smooth enough. They will write about this day forever. Maybe curse us, maybe fear us. But The Watcher will know our names.

Cultist 1: [Leaning against the chair] Hah…afterlife, yes? People think seventy-two maidens. For us, it is not that. It is being remembered, being useful. That is the real paradise.

Pilot Cultist: Mmm. True. Paradise is not soft hands and fruit. It is having your name whispered in the halls of the Eye.

Cultist 2 (from outside the door): [Calling in] Don’t forget the tapes. You are still recording?

Cultist 1: Yes. I’ll see it reaches the Order. [Pauses] Tell me…what will happen with Iraq, once this is done?

Pilot Cultist: [Shrugs] Iraq is fragile. The Americans will come for it. They must. Oil, power, pride. The cult’s chains are already tied to Baghdad. When we are gone, others will pull. That war is certain, whether by them or by us.

Cultist 1: [Soft laugh] Then perhaps our children will see that fire. If not, then their children.

(Awkward pause. A radio crackle, muffled yelling from passengers grows faintly louder in background.)

Cultist 1: [Changing subject, casually] You know what I’ll miss? Music. The old cassettes. Even the stupid pop songs. [Laughs] Britney Spears…Backstreet Boys. Every taxi plays them.

Pilot Cultist: [Laughs quietly] “Hit me baby one more time,” eh? We are hitting harder than she ever sang.

(All three laugh briefly. Then silence.)

Cultist 1: Enough. I must finish.

(Door creaks open. Cultist 1 walks toward back of cabin, his voice now directed toward someone else. Passengers mutter nervously in Arabic and English.)

Cultist 1: [Softer, speaking to a woman] Sister. Take this. The Order requires the memory survives.

Woman (whispering, scared): A…a parachute?

Cultist 1: No. Not for you. For me. Keep steady.

(Rustling. Buckles. Heavy footsteps toward rear hatch. Tape warbles as audio grows distorted. Cabin depressurization alarm faintly heard.)

Cultist 1 (last words on tape): The Eye watches. Always.

(Loud rush of wind as the man jumps. Tape cuts abruptly.)
