Flying is like asking to fall to your death

Lian was NOT a good flyer, ask anyone who's ever been in any sort of air craft with her. She wasn't necessarily scared of heights or anything, it was just the possibility of things going wrong, what if they ran out fuel? Or there was turbulence? Engine failure? The list could go on and on, so when she was begged to come on this trip she was reluctant to agree to the pregnant woman who asked her.

"Lia you'll be fine" aria assured her, helping her pack her suitcase. "No, multiple things could lead to an early death, what if I die?" She rambled "ok you're being dramatic now, if anything did happen, there's parachutes AND if you forgot there are 2 kryptonians who can fly you guys to safety" Aria was silently thankful for not having to go on this trip with her. She loved Lian with every fiber of her being but she was a handful when it came to flying and all this stress wasn't good for the baby or her mood swings.

"Everything's going to be fine" aria told her zipping up her suitcase as Damian walked in "dami she wants me to go on that death trap in the sky, where I could fall to my death, do you want your sister to die? Do you?" Lian asked him, the poor guy not knowing what he walked into "you're not going to die Harper, the pilot and crew are trusted, and if you do end up dying, I'll personally kill all of them on your behalf" he sent her a quick smile seeing his wife face palm "good to know what your priorities are Batman" she sent him a pointed look.

"Tell her the plane won't kill her" aria whispered to him motioning to the panicking girl "it won't kill you" he told her bluntly.

"Just in case, before we go I'm updating my will" lian said rushing off, "she already has her will?" Damian asked Aria who just shrugged used to her cousins spontaneity.

"I'd be surprise if she doesn't already have her funeral planned" she whispered back, rubbing her belly feeling the kicks from the baby.

"They're kicking again!" She yelled out into the hallway watching Lian run back in to have a feel.

"Kicking?" She asked putting her hands on the swollen stomach. "More like stabbing but yes" aria told her wincing at a rather sharp jab.

"We have arrived!" Luke announced walking into the apartment with Jon and the speedsters.

Hearing no response Jon called out again "guys? Hello?" He walked around the apartment until he found them "now what's everyone doing in here?" He asked nonchalantly leaning against the door frame.

"Feeling the baby kick" Lian spoke up and Jon flicked a switch or something because he started to get all giddy "oh! I wanna feel!" He rushed over like a child being offered candy and put his hands on his friends stomach.

"Alright, the jet leaves soon so come here and get the information for the mission" Damian spoke up handing them a file.

Yep that's right they aren't going to a fair, well the kids are. Did you think they'd actually let them travel alone? These kids? The ones who managed to take down 2 planes just flying from Gotham to New York!

The fair was a decoy for a mission in that area, in Australia. The royal Easter show, was where the kids would be going and had to look out for these 2 guys who lured children in and kidnapped them into a child trafficking scheme, their main ops was in Australia and this was our shot to bust them once and for all but of course the kids didn't know that... yet.

"Everything in here?" Jon asked earning a nod from Damian. "Alright you guys call if the baby decides to pop out earlier than expected" Lian told them as she picked up her bags and reluctantly left for the airport.

Reaching the landing site they waited for the jet to be fueled before they boarded taking their seats.

Lian and Jon sat together on one side of the jet next to the alcohol while the kids sat on the other side so they wouldn't be able to steal any drinks.
