Jordan was a little nervous as he climbed into the turret, but he wasn't about to let that show. Kezi started the Whizzing Arrow III.
It was weird for someone other than Molly to pilot. But Jordan did what Molly asked him to. If it was only for her sake.
"Ready?" the girl asked.
"Sure." he answered.
Rick motioned for Kezi to take off as he held his daughter's hand. She obeyed.
Jordan was thrusted by a sudden jerking motion of the racer. "What's going on up there?" he complained.
"Nothing."
"Sure sounds like nothing. I'm sure this is gonna be loads of fun."
Jordan could hear her frustration as she ignored his snide comment.
Kezi got an idea as she smiled to herself. 'You want fun? I'll give you enough fun to last you the rest of your life.'
Jordan couldn't believe Molly had allowed this!
'She can pilot a star racer just as well as I can. She's proving that-'
Then he was cut off by the ship speeding forward.
The way the star racer was thrown around, Jordan feared for his life.
The girl quickly directed the star racer head on toward one of the temples in the water. Rick called through.
"What're you doing, kid? Trying to kill yourself?"
She guided the star racer away from the temple so quickly, that Jordan thought he'd lost his stomach behind.
'Whatever happened to flying in a straight line?' he thought to himself.
"Alright." Rick said. "Now come down and land..."
It was obvious that Kezi was ignoring his orders. The racer took off up into the sky.
"Uh, Hawkins! You want Jordan to like your team!" Rick shouted. He heard Jordan in his turret, yelling in terror.
The star racer spun quickly upward.
"And now the spinning..."
With a sharp U-turn, it dove downward. Rick was impressed with Kezi's piloting abilities, but he knew this wasn't helping Jordan. Or his stomach.
Rick watched as the young pilot pulled up before running into the ground and prepared to land. He heard Kezi's voice call into Jordan's turret.
"Having fun yet?" she asked him smugly.
Jordan didn't answer because he had a feeling he was going to be sick. But he wasn't about to admit that.
Korra looked up at Rick and asked, "How did she do that?"
Rick grinned at her. "She's a champ."
Kezi climbed out of the Whizzing Arrow III. She frowned when she couldn't find Jordan.
"Where's...?"
Rick pointed to the back door of the racer that led to the turret. Jordan climbed out, his face green.
He looked up at Kezi. She tried to restrain a laugh but failed.
'I haven't had this much fun in years!' she thought.
Jordan grew sulky when she stopped laughing. He ambled off to the pond.
Kezi rethought her actions. Maybe she shouldn't have done that, especially with relationships as tense the way they were.
Rick saw her concern. "Relax, Hawkins. He'll get over it." With that, he headed over to Nate and Koji.
Korra stood next to Kezi. She said, "You're amazing! There's no way you could lose!"
Kezi smiled at the little girl. "Thank you."
Korra returned Kezi's smile with her own. Then she spun around to catch up with Rick.
Kezi looked fondly after her new team. Then she refocused her attention.
She had to find someone.
