"I told you we had to head northwest. "
The black haired girl, no older than 7 exclaimed as she pointed at the map furiously.
The other dark haired boy, who looked around the same age as his sister growled, "and we would be heading in the wrong direction, it's northeast!"
The dark haired girl fumed as the boy continued, "besides, I'm older than you! You should listen to me!"
"Only by 3 minutes!"The girl exclaimed, "X'hal! You are so wrong, you klorbag!"
"Oh yeah?"the boy snickered, "wanna battle this out?"
"Bring it!"the girl exclaimed.
Both teens shot out of the wrecked spaceship as they began to attack each other. They flew into the air and attacked each other with either kicks or punches, sending each other crashing into the ground. "Just admit that you're wrong!"The boy yelled as he put the girl in a headlock.
The girl shrieked, "if it wasn't for you, we'd be at Aunt Raven and Uncle Beastboy's house by now! I won't apologize!"
Suddenly a nightarang glided and exploded into ropes, tying the teens together, causing them to collide to the ground.
A man with a blue bird sprawled across his chest went up to the teens. "Who are you and what is your purpose here?"The man stated.
The boy snickered upon seeing the man, "it's none of your business." He then pushed his arms outwards, causing the ropes to break. Nightwing's eye widened as he took a more careful stance.
The girl stood up next to the boy,pulling the boy back, "Aa'ron, don't, perhaps he can help us with the directions."
The boy, Aa'ron, frowned, "I don't trust him."
"Good to know that we are on the same page then."Nightwing replied.
The girl frowned at her brother and stood closer to NIghtwing, "Sir…"
"Nightwing." the man replied.
"Nightwing, my name is Ma'ri, and we got lost on our way to our relative's house." the little girl beamed at Nightwing, hoping he would help.
Nightwing raised his eyebrows as he studied the kids, "you're not from this planet, who is your relative?"
"Ma'ri, I told you he couldn't help."Aa'ron pulled his sister back as he glared at Nightwing.
Ma'ri frowned as she freed her arm from Aaron and replied to Nightwing, "not by blood, but they are someone very dear to our mother, and we wish to visit them."
Ma'ri continued, "Please, we do not mean any harm."
Nightwing studied the girl for a while, a sense of nostalgia rushing towards him, but he couldn't recall what it is.
"I can not help you this blindly."Nightwing finally replied, "you two have to state where you have come from."
"Oh, we're from-"Ma'ri started, but was cut off by Aa'ron, "Naramat."
Nightwing raised his eyebrows, "I've never heard of such a planet before."
"We're from the 25th galaxy to the left"Aa'ron replied, "we had a long journey and I'm extremely tired and pissed off right now, so if you are going to help, do it now." "Aa'ron!"Ma'ri exclaimed as she slapped her brother's head, "how could you be this rude! Mother would surely be of the enraged if she knew!"
Aa'ron rolled his eyes.
Nightwing studied the teens before sighing, "fine, where are you two heading?"
"Jump city." The name itself had Nightwing's heart skip a beat.
He quickly hid his discomfort and replied, "you two just passed it, it's 5 miles to the south."
The teens in front of him erupted into a fight again.
"I told you we passed it!"Ma'ri exclaimed, "But no! You are the arrogance and had to do the assuming of yourself and didn't listen to me!"
"My fault?"Aa'ron exclaimed, "if it hadn't been you nagging in my ear the entire trip here, we wouldn't have crashed! Besides you thought it was to the northwest!"
"you insolent prick!"Ma'ri yelled as she lunged at her brother.
Nightwing was quick enough to pull them apart, "I don't think your space ship can take you there."
"Oh!"Ma'ri turned and smiled at Rightwing, a complete different look from the ones she had just sent her brother, "it is quite the alright! Our people have been gifted with the ability to fly, 5 miles wouldn't be too far away."
"Speak for yourself."Aa'ron rolled his eyes, "I'm too tired from fighting with you to fly."
"Look,"Nightwing spoke up, "I don't trust the two of you to make it to Jump city without wreaking havoc along the way."
Both teens huffed at each other.
Rightwing continued, "I have to get to Metropolis for a short gathering later, and I can take you two straight to Jump city afterwards."
"Glorious!"Mari beamed as she floated up into the air, "you are very nice, Mr. Nightwing!"
Aa'ron frowned, "what gathering? Can't you just take us to Jump first, or let us go by ourselves?"
Ma'ri shot her brother a glare, "Aa'ron! Do stop being the rude!"
Aa'ron huffed once more.
"I already told you," Nightwing crossed his arms, "I don't trust you two to not fight. And it's a business gathering."
"Business gathering?"Aa'ron asked coldly, "like a superhero gathering at the Watch tower?"
Nightwing's eyes widened at the boy, "who told you this much?"
"We hear things from our planet, things about the Justice League."Aa'ron shrugged.
Nightwing nodded, accepting Aa'ron's excuse.
Aa'ron frowned as he stood up, "well, I'm not going."
"And you don't have a say."Nightwing stated.
~
Aa'ron glared at Nightwing as he sat on the nightglider. "Come on Aa'ri,"Ma'ri beamed, "don't be the long faced. The gathering sounds exciting."
Aa'ron rolled his eyes at Ma'ri.
Nightwing started the plane and set it on auto mode before turning to the kids, "so, how did you two learn to speak English?"
"We have a teacher back home."Aa'ron replied indifferently, "it wasn't that difficult."
"Indeed!"Mari nodded enthusiastically at the thought of sharing her people's culture and daily life, "our people can learn languages extremely quick!"
"So why aren't your parents here with you?"Nightwing asked.
Aa'ron looked at him icily, "this is none of your business."
"It does, if two aliens are wandering in Earth."Nightwing replied as he crossed his arms.
Aa'ron gritted his teeth, "fine, we were here because we wanted to prove that we could travel by ourselves. People back home will finally no longer view us as children after we return back home from this journey."
"You're barely 5 are you?"Nightwing chuckled.
Aa'ron frowned, "We're 7!We're not babies!"
Ma'ri nodded,"Our people are taught to be independent from a young age."
"At seven?"Nightwing asked.
Ma'ri smiled, "it's never too early to be independent! Besides, our mother is extremely busy."
Nightwing nodded, "so how long have you been traveling?"
"For quite some time."Aa'ron replied, "do you have food-"
Aaron's eyes lit up as he saw the box of pizza lying on the seat next to Nightwing.
Ma'ri seemed to have noticed it to and flew over to the box, "is that the pizza?"
Nightwing chuckled at the sight of both children staring at the pizza in awe.
"May we have a slice?"Ma'ri asked, never letting her eyes leave the pizza.
Nightwing nodded at the kids, "it's cold though."
The twins quickly grabbed a slice of pizza and munched on it happily. Nightwing couldn't help but smile, the two of the them seemed absolutely starved.
"This is the glorious!"Ma'ri exclaimed with her eyes wide. Aa'ron seemed to agree as he quickly devoured his slice.
Nightwing checked the monitor before announcing,"We're landing, get ready."
