A moment after Stephanie took the pilot's seat, Echo quietly and without comment sat behind her, in the seat usually used by the 'systems operator,' handling communcations, sensors, and the various other goodies that the Javelin possessed.
She contacted the local airport and said, "Flight control, this is the Javelin at the Hall of Justice. We're taking off bound for Daily Planet building in Metropolis in response to an emergency situation. Please route flights to clear our corridor, over."
Her silver eyes slid over to meet Stephanie's through her mask, and she nodded. Her apparent lack of concern over having Stephanie at the controls was either a vote of confience, or of denial of reality...but either way it was clear that the baton had been passed.
The Javelin was ready for liftoff.
