Kyle would hav ebeen in shock, if he had not been trained to work through it. He wanted to be at Kalinda's side, and at the same time he wanted to be at Penelope's side, and at the same time he wnated to scream - AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH - because he realized the plane was falling. Kyle rushed to the cockpit.
"Everyone this is your captain screaming. Please hold on for dear life, as our vehicle of passage is currently descending. More than likely into hell. But lets see what I can do."Kyle knew jokes were in bad taste, but he needed to hide whta he was really feeling. Especially if Kalinda was hurt. Maybe she could latch on to his positivity as an anchor or something. Kyle didnt know. He didnt have powers.
Phoebe scooped up the plant minion, now back to its small size, and place her on her shoulder, beginning to break through the illusions Penelope had cast, finding the crazy woman heading straight towards a student-or she thought it was a student-that she didn't know who had apparently snuck on board the plane. And Penelope didn't seem to have seen them yet. "Stop her!" She cried, now intent on bringing the older woman in to have her answers for the potential murder of a student.
Kalinda wasn't reassured by Tsura's words, yet she did try and keep calm. Which wasn't happening as everyone seemed to be on high alert, anger, fear, panic. They were her world, with her own pain, fear and confusion. Suddenly alone with tsura, it caused her to panic even more. Griffin had gone off to punch the woman, and Kyle had just left her. "Not going to a hospital" That would just be hell for Kalinda. All those sick, injuried, worried, grief stricken people? She'd go crazy. "Too painful"
At the jet, Connor was just getting into his Iron man suit, the jet now quite close to the plane, noting its downward flight. He would have to get the plane under control, and trust the others to free the kidnapped students and capture their target. He shot out the openning panal on the jets ceiling, leaving it in autopilot with Ignot at the controls.
Penelope cursed as she ran into another one of the damned acadmey students, and she immediately went to control his mind, but something caused her to stop. Instead, she snarled "Get out of my way!"
Clyde laughed out loud and grabbed Penelope by one of her hands and waist. He did a small two step dance with her, twirled her once, and she twirled a few steps away in the direction she was running to. Clyde pulled out his gun and aimed it at what he assumed was his target.
"Howdy toots! Seems like your a little lost. I got my ol nine milli here to show you the way. Unless you wanna take a gander in my mind again?" Clyde lowered his gun and opened his arms like as if he welcomed her.
Kyle typed away at the panels around him and tried every possible combo he could think of to safely unlock full control over the planes systems but he could not do it. He cursed himself for being so inexperienced with this. Bruce or his father could have done in this in his sleep. Then an idea struck. Kyel felt his pockets and pulle dout his phone. He scrolled through his contacts and clicked on EOR. Emergency Oracle Responce. Now this was suppose to be used for emergencies for batfam only. While Bruce wanted everyone to follow the agreement to a cord, that did not mean everyone in the batfam was complacent. Oracle had given everyone in the family an emergency call system in case any old enemies decided they wanted to make all hell break loose.
Kyle placed the phone to his ear. Also lucky that the operating system for the call was Oracles own invention, able to make calls in the deepest cave and the highest points int he sky. When the call was picked up Kyle smiled. It was good to be able to talk to his mom, Barbara Gordan, Oracle.
"Hey Mo-..Oracle. Have a bit of a situation here. Can you possibly download a hacking program to my phone? Or something else? I need to hack a high tech level terminal system on the plane I am......totally not kidnapped on."Penelope hissed quite like a cat at Clyde, "Wilson Spawn" She lunged for the gun, slamming down an illusion to try and distract Clyde, and either get passed him, or get the gun.
Barbara sighed, now was not the time to be a mother, despite the fact she wanted to ensure that Kyle was truly okay, if not safe. How many times she had gotten a similar call from Dick...she shook her head, "I'm well aware you are so totally kidnapped on the plane" She said, the only words she said on the topic, before moving on, "I can, but it will take a few moments to transfer" Despite all the technology in the world, data still wasn't instaneous. "Hold tight"
Kyle gulped and somehow talking to his mothermade him even more nervous than trying to land a plan.
"Copy that Oracle......see mom? I am all professional and stuff. In the field, doing stuff, trying to save people. I am...The Boy Wonder!"Kyle nearly did his usual theatrics but then remembered his mother couldnt see him.
Clyde ignored the illusion entirely, much too used to seeing illusions. He held out a hand, faltering Penelope, and offered her his gun.
"Why the rush? If you want my gun jitter bug take it!"Penelope narrowed her eyes at Clyde. The craziness of the him phased her slightly, she couldn't predict what he would do, and Penelope warily avoided the gun. If Clyde was offering it, chances were it was booby-trapped. She shifted, moving to move around him, she stopped, her mind rapidly searching for an answer, before she took the gun, and without hesitation, she shot Clyde, taking advantage of the situation to dodge around him, and escape the plane through the hole Clyde must have.
"Just remain alive, Kyle" Barbara replied, and a few moments later, Kyle would receive the information he requested.
"Thanks Mom you rock."Kyle looked at his phone and smiled. Then he hung up and got to work. He used his phones blue tooth to synch with the planes system and was able to navigate his way through with ease. Kyle quickly set the plane straight, and as he was fixing all the little problems Penelope set into motion. Exce[t for one little thing......Fuel was very very low.
Clyde opened his eyes. He smiled as he felt the spot in his head where Penelope shot him. Clean and fresh as if he was not shot. Which by now he wasnt. He went through the hole on the roof where Penelope went through, and watched as she tried to escape.
There was a crash as the plane straightened, Connor cursing slightly as it rose unexpectly, but within seconds, he was back in the air, hovering, ready to land and enter the plane, before he saw the movement of someone leaving the plane. He realised his mistake of having the jet so close.
Penelope shot what appeared to be a grrapple towards the jet, clearly deciding to use it as an escape, or to give herself some leyway. Perhaps she thought Connor was the only person who had come. He didn't know. She slipped in through the Pannel he himself had used to get out, and Connor was torn-he needed ot make sure those in the plane were okay, but would the others be able to handle Penelope?
Inside the plane, Phoebe had knelt beside Tsura, and was examining Kalinda, hearing her words about not wanting to go to the hospital. Phoebe had had experiences with Kalinda's empathy, and knew why she didn't want to go. "She's right, Tsura. Kalinda is an empath. The hosptial would be the worst place we can take her? But what else could they do? the school was probably a little too far, even if they could take the plane there. She glanced at the screen, which showed the jet quite close.
None of them had, truly, any medical knowledge, but surely...if it was a stark jet, there had to be a medical bay. Maybe a robot arm? She didn't know. "Those that can fly, help transfer people to the jet"
