Day 77
"Hey guys, the news from Houston isn't great but I'm sure it's nothing to worry about."
Nia quickly intervened, "No offense, Commander, but I don't know what it is yet and I'm sure I'll be worried so just out with it."
"There's probably gonna be a major solar flare hitting us in about 3 days."
Maggie gasped while everyone else started talking at the same time.
"What?!" Nia was in shock. "How major?"
Lena was already calculating things in her head.
"Should we start working?" Sam knew they just needed to prepare.
"Well, the ship has Lena's magnetic field, right? As you said, nothing to worry about." Kara finished with a smile. A smile.
They knew she was a blind believer in Lena Luthor's inventions but to be smiling at news like this seemed excessive.
"Exactly. This will just put it to the test. No biggie." Alex sounded as confident as Kara, which didn't sit right with Lena at all.
"Again, Danvers. How major are we talking about here? The shield can only hold so much, there's a lot of factors to consider and we need to—"
Alex got to her before Kara and took her by the arms, "Lena." Once she had the woman's full attention she continued, "We'll look through the numbers together, we'll take all the necessary precautions, we have time and that's also thanks to you. We'll be okay."
Lena gave her a small smile, squeezed the hand holding her left arm and replied, "Three days. Let's get to work."
