Author's Note: Well, here it is, Without a Parachute. I do hope you like it.

Disclaimer: Somehow, it is still not mine!

PROLOGUE- Kara's POV:

When we decided to go skydiving, Winn was totally against the idea.

"What if we fall?"

I was quick to reassure him that I would catch him if he fell, and, anyways, accidents with parachutes barely ever happened. Max, Alex and James had wanted to go skydiving for ages, and Annalise was all for it. I, obviously, flew all the time, so wasn't that worried.

That was before everything went wrong.

(A:N: Yes, that was ridiculously short. So here is chapter 1 as well)

CHAPTER 1- No POV:

"Ready?" Alex yelled over the sound of the wind rushing into the small plane that we were all standing in.

"No!" Winn squeaked back. "Are you sure we have to do this?"

The silky smooth voice of their pilot came over the com: "If you would like, there is a more scenic area a few miles from here. We can wait until we get there before you jump."

"Thank you, but that's ok!" Kara called back. "If we wait any longer Winn might not be able to handle it."

"I'm not able to handle it now!" Winn moaned.

Annalise squeezed his hand. "You be ok."

"On three." James said. "1- 2- 3!" They all leapt out of the plane.

The sensation of falling was exhilarating. Kara yelled to all of them when it was time to open their parachutes. Max pressed the button and a brilliantly colored piece of material flew out behind him. Out of the corner of his eye he saw James floating slowly down beside him. He grinned and waved.

Alex pressed her parachute button, too, but nothing happened. She pressed it again, more frantically.

"Alex!" She heard Annalise's scream. "It's not opening!"

Spiraling down from the sky, all of the fun was taken out of the experience. Annalise heard Winn screaming to her left, and she reached out with a hand, which he managed to grab.

As they were about to reach the trees, Kara soared down and grabbed Annalise. "Hold on Winn!" She called down to her friend.

"Kara!" Annalise looked up. "Alex's parachute didn't work either!" Kara nodded, in full Supergirl mode, and flew off, dragging her two friends behind her.

There was Alex. Kara grabbed her with her free arm and landed gently, setting all of them down.

Winn sat down hard, and Annalise joined him on the ground, shaking. Alex was still on her feet. "Max. Where is Max?"

"I th-th-th-think, th-th-th-th-that their p-p-p-parachutes w-w-w-w-worked." Winn stuttered, face white as a sheet.

"What?" Alex asked, looking even paler than him, if that was possible. "So- he-"

"And James." Kara put in.

"Yeah.. they're... alive?" Alex sank down on her knees, holding her ring hand. She and Max were planning to get married in less than 3 months.

Annalise moved over to give her a hug. Kara spoke up again. "We have to get back to the D.E.O. Send out a squad to find them. I'm going to see if I can hear anything." She blasted off into the air.

5 minutes later she was back- without James and Max. "Nothing. It's too windy. I can't hear." Kara sat down hard.

Annalise took control of her devastated friends. "Ok. Let's get back to the D.E.O. and try to find out what has happened. We are going to fine Max and James. I promise." Alex nodded, standing, and Kara lifted them all into the air again.

It was time to find their friends.

Author's Note: Oooh…. Cliffy! Are they still alive? Will they find their friends? Will Alex become a widow before she even gets married? Will they find out who did this to them? Find out in the next chapter of WITHOUT A PARACHUTE!
