Happy Razaya week everyone! The theme for today is "Firsts". I probably can't upload something every day because finals are this week but I still want to participate! This story is based off an idea Sueanoi initially had! (You know the one!)

This takes place after "Dark Matter."

Razaya Week: Firsts

"And so I told Gardner, 'Well, if you're so tough why don't you do it? Be my guest!' Aw, Kilowog, you should have seen the look on his face. He had no clue what to do next!" Hal laughed aloud as he relayed the humorous story of Guy Gardner's humility to his Bolovaxian friend.

"So, then what happened?" Kilowog asked, not experiencing as much enjoyment in the story as his captain was.

To this, Hal froze for a moment. "Uh, we sorta just…waited until her mom showed up to do it for us."

Kilwog's mouth dropped. "You mean to tell me that neither of you know how to change a baby's diaper?"

"Hey, I'm a Green Lantern not a babysitter!" Hal complained, attempting to make another excuse for his lack of skill in the matter. "I don't even know why the Guardians gave us such stupid assignment, to babysit the newborn of a bunch of diplomats!"

"Who knows? Maybe it's their way of getting back at you for yer constant rule-breaking! Or maybe they figure you could use the experience in taking care of kids," Kilwog reasoned.

That last line brought up another subject. "Speaking of kids, where're Aya and Razer? Weren't they supposed to meet us at the main building for debriefing?" Hal asked.

The Bolovaxian scratched his chin. "Last I saw them, they were headed into one of the Interceptor 2's spare rooms. The kid mentioned something about helping Aya get accustomed to her organic body or other."

Hal's mouth slanted into a long frown. "What?" he muttered.

"You okay Jordan? Ya look a little pale?"

The human didn't answer. Instead, he grabbed ahold of his friend's arm and yanked him in the direction of the Spaceship. The sergeant could do nothing but protest all the way until they finally found themselves standing in front of the ship in question. "Kilowog, which room did you see them go into?"

"Uh, I dunno, the fourth one? Why?! And what're we doin' here?" Again, his questions fell on deaf ears and Hal all but dragged him inside the ship, not stopping until the door of the fourth room loomed before them. "Hal, what're we-?!"

"Shhhh!" Hal whispered, pressing his ear to the door. "I've got a bad feeling about this!"

Kilowog only rolled his eyes and followed his lead. Inside, two voices could be made out.

"Razer, I am feeling slightly uncomfortable about this."

"It's fine Aya. Trust me, it's not that difficult."

"Jordan, why're we doing this?!" Kilowog whispered in irritation.

"Shhhh!" was the only response he got.

"This is my first time to partake in this activity. Are you certain it will be alright?" They heard the former robot ask.

"Don't worry Aya, I'm here. Just focus on me, and your body will follow. Your instincts will do the rest."

Hal's eyes widened. "Aw no, it's just as I thought! They can't do this now! They're too young! And she just got her body two weeks ago!"

Kilowog, who had finally caught on to what Hal was implying, let out a light groan. "Jordan, you don't know what they're doin' in there! It could be completely innocent."

"Am positioned correctly?"

"Not quite. Shift your hips this way. There, that's perfect!"

"You call that innocent?!" Hal asked as the panic beginning to seep into his voice.

No comment this time from the GL sergeant. Even he had to admit that this was starting to sound a little disturbing. And to add fuel to the already burning fire:

"Here, take hold of the end."

"It is larger than I initially surmised. This is the proper way to hold it?"

"Slide this hand a little lower towards the base."

Cold sweat began to drip down their necks.

"Should I tighten my grip as well?"

"Yes, but not too tight. Otherwise it becomes painful."

"ALRIGHT!" Having heard all that they could bear, without warning, the two GL "dads" busted into the room, green constructs in hand and raised high. "WHAT IN GOD'S NAME DO YOU TWO THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Hal cried.

Startled, Razer and Aya turned to face the two intruders. The GL's could only freeze in embarrassment when they saw that Aya's hands were clamped tightly around…a sword. The two kids stood in the center of the room, wearing surprised expressions and complete clothing. Once the initial shock had worn away, Razer crossed his arms expectantly. "Can we help you?" he asked sarcastically.

"Uh, what's going…on, exactly?" Hal asked nervously.

"Razer has been instructing me on the proper technique in which to wield a blade. Since I am now an organic being, he thought it suitable that I learn how to use a weapon so that I may defend myself against possible attacks," Aya explained as she lowered the sword to the ground. "Although, I believe I will require a different blade. This one is quite heavy."

Razer nodded. "Hm, perhaps something slightly smaller then?" he said, sifting through a bag of weapons that lay on the floor until he pulled out a smaller sword. After he exchanged it for the one she had, he turned his attention back to the GLs. "Do you need something?"

"What? Oh, no, no, just, uh, coming to check up on the two of you!" Hal chuckled, constructs disappearing. "Uh, keep up the good work!" With that, Hal and Kilowog exited as gracefully as possible with as little dignity they could retain.

That story remained a popular one amongst their future children.
