St. Roch, New Orleans, 1975


As soon as the ship lands, Leia unfastens herself from her seat to stretch her arms, only she clutched her stomach while she puked on the floor of the waverider. At the same time as it hit Mick Rory.

"Oh, I should have mentioned it before, nausea is one of the side effects of time travel, along with-" Rip began.

At that moment Raymond fell face first to the ground.

"Vertigo and-" Once again Rip got interrupted.

"I can't see." The Professor says shocked.

"And temporary blindness. It should only last a minute." Rip explains as he waves in front of the professor his face.

Leia slowly sits back up again, afraid it might happen again. She looks around, Raymond is slowly getting up on his feet and Mick is clutching his head.

"After all, that was a mere jaunt. The further back in time you go, the worse the side effects." Rip tells the group. "Better?" He asked the Professor. Leia stands up turning her back to the group.

"It's all relative." He responds.

"How about you Miss. Anderson?" Rip asks her looking at.

"I. Am. Fine." She snaps, as she turns her head over her shoulder annoyed.

Rip put his hands up in defense. Leia didn't need his help. She wanted an explanation of why she was kidnapped. But still, she didn't ask him.

"Hey! I wanna go home!" The kid suddenly yells.

"Good news, then, 2016 will be around in, uh..-" Rip starts but got interrupted by Leia.

"41 years." She says. What she can't see is that most people of the group were now staring at her. She turns around and sees everyone staring. "What? A thief needs to know math too." She huffs as if it was a fact.

"Now, you four, feel free to make yourselves comfortable back here on the ship, while the rest of you are coming with me to find Professor Boardman." Rips says.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're benching us?" Mick asks, referring to Sara, Leonard, Leia and himself.

"I thought we were a team?" Sara says, furrowing her eyebrows.

"This mission doesn't require your skill set." Rip explains. "Yet."

"Meaning you don't need anyone killed, maimed, or robbed." Leonard says eyeing Rip closely.

"Precisely." Rips says before walking away.

"Seriously?" Leia says eyeing Rip as well.

"Sure it's a good idea to leave these three unsupervised on a time machine?" Ray asks Rip.

"Hey Haircut, deafness wasn't one of the side effects." Mick says, glaring at Raymond.

Leia bites back a laugh, that nickname is awesome.

"We better hurry up. Professor Boardman will die in less than twenty-four hours." Rip says to the group he is taking with him. Raymond looks at him confused.

"Whats's the point of cutting it so close?" He asks Rip.

"Because if he is destined to die, then he doesn't have a timeline for us to disrupt, and his impact on the future will be minimal. How brilliant." The professor says.

"And depressing." Kendra says, then looks at Rip. "How does he die?"

"He is found dead from unknown causes. Come on" Rip says, leading the group out.

"Are you coming?" The professor asks the kid. Leia takes a mental note that she needs to asks their name later.

"I'll stay put." The kid replies.

"You'd rather stay with them?" The old man asks him skeptically.

"Ouch, Professor. That hurts." Leia says dramatically, putting her hand over her heart.

"They didn't drug me." The kid sneers.

"Point taken." The professor replies and walks away.

"Geez." Leia says. "You were drugged by him, that must hurt." She says to the kid. "So what is your name?"

"Jax." He replies before taken a seat. "What's yours?"

"I am Leia." She smirks. "Also known as Pyro."

"Wait, your are Pyro?" She hears someone ask from behind her.

She turns around to see Mick looking at her surprised but with a smile on his face. "Yeah." She smirks.

"A girl like you, should have known." Leonard tells her, looking at her up and down.

Leia huffs and turns back to Jax. "Who was the old guy anyway?" She asks him.

"That was Professor Martin Stein." Jax huffs and looks down.

"And what is your connection?" She asks him. She couldn't keep her curiosity to herself. Even though she knew that curiosity killed the cat.

"Oh, we merge into a burning man, Firestorm." Jax explains her. And Leia looks at him shocked.

"Okay noted." She stated. "Cool." She smirks.

"What are you?" Jax asks her.

"A metahuman. I control the elements. Fire, water, earth, air, you name it." She tells him.

"So you are kinda like the Avatar?" Jax laughs.

"If you call me that one more time, I swear to god, I will kill you." Leia threatens him, her face closing in on his face.

"Noted." Jax gulps.
