Of course, Lena had only volunteered in helping to send Maalefaak downstairs, but it was too much after working together. Eventually, she makes her way near the roundtable. How is she doing? he whispers, bringing his gaze back to Nia. When he rebelled against me, it was the worst pain of my life. Or at least, he pretended like he didnt remember. But Kara definitely will., That afternoon, James suits up and walks with Kara towards the stage outside of L-Corp. Lena hugs her hello and nods at James who returns it. I have to be.. I asked him if he liked me, if he wanted to pursue me. He hopes she gets the hint, that when he first told her he said the same words, and so did she. He takes his time, delaying the inevitable. Earth 38 had been restored. Weve basically just become a filing system with a nice firing range.. Kara turns to him. And with that in mind, she spots the little girl she hired. She wanted to be with her for the first few nights back, making sure she was stable. Important that I know. Well, I seem to be having the same problem, Kara says. What? Kara asks, her fist stopping. Anything with sunlight in it. A few hundred yards away, a planted tree sits in the sidewalk, a small patch of grass surrounding the stump. How deep had Haley dug her talons? Where are you going? Alex asks, her eyes wide again. Kara rolls her eyes, tired. That thought only lasted a second and it was gone.. She was so distraught from her fallout with her friend the night before that she had forgotten to bring a spare change of clothes to the DEO with her. Are you cheating on me with another alien?, Oh, I could never, he smiles, slipping out of the sheets and reaching for his clothes. Alex! A voice from outside the room shouts at the director. Why do I have a feeling youre mad at me?. A spring and a pointed nail sit, spring-loaded and ready to be launched. Theyre fixing her up right now, almost done. If Lex doesnt exist, that means Lillian doesnt either. Thats mercy., Alex takes a cautious step forward, the sister in her wanting to comfort Kara, but the doctor in her wanting to tend to Lenas wounds. You cant move or else you will damage yourself more. He takes out his hair gel and places it on the nightstand, then his toothbrush in the bathroom, and then his cologne. She sits on her couch, sprawled out with a glass of wine in her hand. Alexs hands shake as the same thought flips through her mind, over and over again. And, look, Mon-El is used to the idea of political, arranged marriages. So She gestures to Eve, tilting her head and suddenly realizing how it must seem to Kara. Alex shakes her head, turning around to Jonn. Or at least, trying to date. Getting used to seeing you every day when she comes to work. And just a few feet before the entrance, the bridge falls. There is a knock on the door and Mon-El enters, bowing his head at Alura. Her friend was upset that they havent seen each other. Come in, Kara. Her voice threatens to crack at her name, her throat wanting to close and never open again. He can watch her face light up with colour as the sun breaks over the mountains, watch her eyes go all wide, and hell be able to think that hes found peace.". But I always come up with the same answer, even if its the one I dont want to be true., Kate nods, agreeing. Alex freezes, the corner of her mouth turning up slowly. He feels Karas arms beneath him, holding him tightly to her chest. We didnt know that he was planning an attack. Only now do I realize how miserable you mustve been at times. Its not a drop to the knees first, then land on the side, then lay down. Their friendship. She feels the bullet crush against her stomach and she tumbles to the ground, clutching her hands to her abdomen. An image. Really? She asks. He raises his hand to her mouth, fingers hovering in front of her lips without touching them. Would I have shot Lex if Id known the truth?, The gun shakes as she winces. The sand there was tan compared to the red on Daxam, but it had still felt all the same. But before we talk, I need to get you fixed up, okay? Kara nods, a howl escaping her lips. The man shakes her off, batting her hands away. With that, she drops out of the window and into the night sky. He grins, bending to grab a fortune cookie from the table. A salty tear drifts down her cheek and she rests her head against the door crying. He trails his lips across her cheek, brushing her mouth. Kara had helped her see that. I was in the army academy when I met the girl I wanted to spend the rest of my life with., Nowhere. So he shifts his weight, preparing himself for the inevitable question Alura will ask again, knowing her answer. One of the wheels was missing, so Supergirl lays on the dusty cushions at an awkward angle. She knew what she said. She reaches down and holds his hand. Help me. The woman who would rather die than ask for help asked him, pleaded to him, to help her and that was exactly what he was going to do. Ive lived here for most of my life, but it still seems I come across something new every day. The future?, He sighs, already missing it. The hero was already crying, her face blotchy and red with swollen eyes. Maybe catch you before you fall., She puts down her papers. Several minutes go by before their ride approaches and they step on, taking it back to the city. I dont think Ill ever get used to seeing that, Alex says, watching her suit. When Alex was sixteen, she received a dog. All of it., Damage control, Kate repeats. She needed to hear his chest jump when he laughed as she rested her head on him, feel his throat rumble against her lips as he spoke sweet words to her when she kissed him there. Kara doesnt respond to him, she doesnt know what to say. Is that what youre trying to tell me? Kara asks, a pain of guilt hitting her in the chest. They shuffle over to the stairs where partially full water bottles wait. I know theyre flooding in., I like the recognition, she answers. He stops abruptly, so abruptly his waist smashes into the gurney and the blood splashes out of the container, half of its contents on Karas stomach. The air is knocked out of him and he gasps. How did you know and not tell me?, Cat sits down beside her, rolling her eyes. That was good. Ill plan the next one. And with the Kryptonite Kate took from Bruce, she told Kara she had it, stood up to her and told her she wasnt afraid to use it if something ever came to it. Mon-El tilts his head towards him, then walks out of earshot of Kara towards the stairs. So I reversed the formula. He spots Kara on the ground and starts to run, then slows when he sees Alex in her lap. It had felt so long since he saw a view this simple. I want to catch up. And what if I kill her?, You wont. And, save me the embarrassment of standing here waiting for a response.. Why do you want me to stop? To be something. Kara nods slowly, eyes on the ground. You know what shes done, Alex, you said it yourself, Kara growls, her face inching closer to Lenas. I told you the truth. But its dangerous. Being betrayed by someone had happened in the past, but she usually just went on with her business, got back at them a little while later. The man snarls, shoving his hand into his pants and pulling out a gun. Please dont tell Kara I said that. Before Lena can answer, Alex holds up a hand, stopping her. You may go, I think well be fine, Kara walks over to her sister, keeping her eyes on Mon-El. Twenty-four seven he is at her side, and I can hardly set foot in the place without my heart jumping out of my chest wanting to go back to her., I know how you feel. The bus is climbing a hill, or rather, a mountain. I was patrolling the skies, as Kara ordered me to., Lena shakes her head, a frustrated smile crawling onto her lips. Youre awake! Hes seen her in worse. I-I watched him I saw him fall, Kara stutters, reliving the image of the man growing smaller and smaller as he fell to the Earth. He lies to Kara that he doesn't remember kissing her but admits he remembers in 2x10 (We Can Be Heroes). All Im sure of is that I never stopped loving you. Its so bright, she mumbles. Her body language could start with a bumbling girl and end with a stoic and strict woman. It only took her until now to realize. Lena couldnt believe it, didnt understand it. I cant let them see my like this., She bites her lip. She turns and starts heading for the door, wiping her eyes with her sleeve as she does. When Kara returned to create the broadcast I spoke with her, too.. Was she okay? Kara asks, the hero in her peeking out at the mention of a civilian in trouble. Fine! It was salvation. Her hand falls on the door frame and she strokes it, then steps out onto the porch. Youre not allergic to anything, are you? She sits on her window sill, knees pulled up to her chest and head resting on them. Alexs hands have now become the same color as her wound, a sickening black that has crawled up her forearms. How it sounded so fresh and complete and new. Is Supergirl here?. Now we just have to defeat Reign, and then Imra., Kara hums, tapping on his waist. I hear your pleas and your wishes of a perfect world. She cocks her head, thinking. He follows suit and smiles at her aggressive touch. Lena points to the kitchen and Kara opens her eyes and sighs. By all means, sister. She spits out a blood clot, wheezing as she tries to sit up. Yeah, she whispers, nodding. Imra and I are in an arranged marriage. But I can also see through it., Oh, dont be like that. Why? When did her feelings shift? I know Kara wouldnt mind having a friend with her, after everything with she trails off. Brainy! But as the questions begin to fill in her brain, her eyes drift to the glass and two bottles of empty wine sitting on the table. His sudden movement alerts Kara. What good would acrylic nails do? Lena shakes her head, and Kara comes to a realization. They look around the room once more and Kara finds what shes looking for. But she falls into the cushions of the couch as he stands, letting the blanket that covered him fall. His jaw quivers and his fists clench, shifting his weight on his heels. Too old for the cultist king to get him so easily out of the way. Im not a villain. I despise her.. This wasnt forgiveness, and it wasnt them making up either. My wife?, And there was also that. I know, Kara. It sounds like we have a plan., Almost, Alex says, holding up her finger. I think thats my answer then. Later at the DEO Mon-El tells Kara that Imra feels bad that she upset Kara, Kara then tells him that she didn't upset her and that she was very kind and she couldn't find any way to hate her. He empties the box and hangs up his clothes in the small closet of their room. Kara Danvers/Mon-El (69) Include Additional Tags Fluff (634) Lena . She watches in horror as the ring on Mon-Els finger disintegrates, then her own follows suit. Because I have been studying you ever since you came to Earth in that pod. Alex! Afraid Alex may be hurt, he wraps a stiff hand around her doorknob and breaks it off, kicking the door wide open in a flourish. Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings (1), Mon-El (Supergirl TV 2015)/Veronica Sinclair (DCU) (1), Bad Person Mon-El (Supergirl TV 2015) (1), Mon-El (Supergirl TV 2015)/Veronica Sinclair (DCU), Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings. Her hand slips away from his chest and he almost groans, wanting her touch to be with him. Andrea. There was no hesitation or thinking or guilt. I know there is still love, but it may not be the type of love you think. Youre here. Oh, um Kate, I dont think-, You dont have to say anything. She finds her way to the stairs and up to Alexs hideout, stepping into the open door and leaning on the frame. Looks like well have to share. Where are we going to take her for holding?. And thats okay. Her eyes glow brighter, reflecting off of Lenas who shuts her eyes to prevent herself from becoming blind. And you know those bullets wont work on me. Its perfect. She shakes her head, a sad smile on her lips. She thinks a moment, not wanting to tell him the truth, then decides on denial. And I really dont want to talk about it., Sam watches her a moment, then leans down on the counter. Not really, no. Alex lets her go, standing and wrapping tight fingers around her bicep. What? She asks, screwing the top back on to the whiskey. Across the street, a pale blue convertible beeps at them. Okay. Kate smiles, returning her gaze to Alex. What are you Shes still sleeping, barely awake. I made the exo-suit in case someone ever tried to use Kryptonite against you or stole it or it got into the wrong hands. But this Lena this isnt you., A solitary tear rolls down Lenas cheek. I couldnt let you shoot me in front of all those people, Kara gasps. Good girl, Kara, good. And dont worry. He looks up then, eyes watering. She wouldnt know the full extent of Lenas feelings. Which, I should add, is making the sex very hot-, Okay! Alex interrupts, tucking her head into her shoulder and covering her ear with her wrist. She places a hand on the arm that is by her neck, and the other on his arm wrapped around her waist. How will his family help him through it?. Her face was bruised, a small cut on her lip and a black eye were slowly disappearing. She holds his ring finger, then her expression crosses when she sees its emptiness. I shouldve known a Luthor would know my true identity., Lex chuckles, steepling his fingers. Guilt goes a long way. Its sending frequencies to her brain thats disrupting her thoughts. He steps toward Alex, explaining rapidly. Jonn and Myrnn stay close in the middle, Kara and Mon-El hanging back and standing tightly together. Nothing that would cause a little girl harm except for some bruising. Well, not entirely. This wasnt. She looks up at him with eyes full of fear and hesitantly reaches into her pocket and hands him the key to Karas cuffs. Era o Mon-El mas em uma verso do passado . She almost shoots her right there. And the problem with that act was that it became a reality. Kara! Just as you did the first time. She taps her knuckles on it, and Alex looks up from her tablet. Madame President, Alex greets, smiling. Superman was off galavanting with her mother and Lois, as well as their eight-year-old son. After, his freak out, the Legion offer to cure Mon-El of his lead allergy and help him control his powers. She looks up at who holds her and quickly jumps back, hugging herself. She rolls out her neck, her head turning in the direction of her sister and friend. You just up and kissed him like there wasnt seven months and seven years between you., You think I dont know that? Kara snaps. You cant heal a broken heart unless the person who broke it comes back, right? Imra smiles, annoyed. How do you feel about the Supers?, Lena freezes, eyes widening. He doesnt look into her apartment, doesnt debate his answer. We just arent seeing much of each other lately. Theyll hurt whoever knows it., I know that! Kara shouts up to her. She shakes her head, continuing. But fine, go. She understood that she lied, betrayed her, but Lena let her believe that they were going to be okay. She closes her eyes again, not able to come up with a good enough excuse. She pulls her arms away from her, tugging at it. She inhales sharply, giving a watery gasp. I do take responsibility for the pain she has felt prior to knowing you, but I dont regret telling her your identity. Because I realized you needed to be found out. Alex throws her arms around her sister, apologizing profusely into her hair. I would love to come to the next showing., Shut up, Kara grumbles, smirking and sitting up. I had been betrayed by everyone I thought was close to me, and that now included you. He crouches slightly, looking at Kara just over the top. She was going to let him choose the distance between them, how close or far apart he wanted to be from her. But at a cost. Tell them I will see them with Rao when their time comes, and Ill put in a good word for Lois to join us. Marsdin turns to Kara, stepping forward and embracing her. Then she wanted to be a God. Oh, she says quietly, taking a step back. And even in this darkness, his pupils dilate until his irises are completely black and she can only see herself in his gaze. A small but sorrowful smile slips onto Alexs mouth. Kara changes out of her suit in front of her sister, slipping on a pair of jeans and a casual button up. Kate watched her, slightly concerned. An understanding that only came from a marriage that was built on obligation and heroism, not love and compassion. Well, Im in. And I know theyre the same, but you cant blame me for feeling angry and terrified at both because theyve been different people for years.. Lena tilts her head to the side. Kara puts a hand to her mouth, overwhelmed at the sight of them together, a family. Were all fine., He waves a hand through the air. Are you drunk?. She should have known. Her name was crawling across every screen, every report. Im here for you., Lena glances around the office at all the eyes watching them. I understand that. Hows reporting?, Kara sighs, finally relaxed. She had accepted her, wasnt that enough? I certainly didnt expect that. Kara nods, sucking on her teeth. No. Each one has different warning and ratings in the notes. Alex and Ruby still keep in touch and she told me everything. When she takes them off, that tether will be broken. Kara was awaiting her in the conference room, arms crossed and pacing back and forth. He was always there. His hands grip her cape and his head presses harder against hers. The team only realized this when her heat signature wasnt picking up on their radar. Whats wrong? Kara asks, putting her hands on her hips and furrowing her brow. She made you look weak. We know how we are going to track the doppel, take her down, and hold her, but how are we going to get the rifle and Kryptonite?, Lena steps forward, closing the small circle the four of them stand in. Why couldnt she have done it in a private room or with Alex by her side? I also almost died and Mon-El saved me, but thats a story for a different time. She rolls her eyes, remembering their fantasy musical world. Once she buttons the bottom of her shirt, she winks at him, walking into the kitchen. Her sister shakes her head. Alex jumps, taking a step forward to help her up. She came in and stopped it, but she saw me.. Ah! He sees her eyes beginning to water and takes a daunting step forward. Her legs are utterly broken. Time slows for a moment as Winns words ring in her ears. She gulped for air, the wind knocked out of her. They both cross their arms and stare at it. Alex? He calls, unsure, softly rapping his knuckles on the door. Im going home. She squats down, wrapping her arms around Alex but then letting go immediately as she is stung at their touch. Okay, my turn. She slides back onto her sister, immediately warming her. Separate sides?, Lena chuckles. Karas words have paralyzed him. Basement, cell. Lena swallows, nodding. Karas gaze rises to Lenas as she drops the rubber from her hand. I should know better than to think youd talk to Kara willingly anymore., No, she says, setting her glass down on the table and standing. As far as pity and aggression go, I really dont care what people think of me. I cant live any longer with pretending there is nothing between us. Open up., Damnit, Kara, do it yourself. Yes. Taking the frames in her fingertips, she slides them off her face slowly, lifting her face to Lena and opening her eyes. Kara leans over, squeezing her arm. Gave in to our feelings., Kara laughs, shaking her head at her. Not care about the consequences, just the feelings that would come with it. And as much as she wishes that last sentence was true to only one half of her life, she knows it applies to her Super half as well. Not today.. And it broke him., Alex nods slowly. I know you are here to witness the latest product L-Corp is unveiling, and I apologize that I have used that as an excuse to invite you here. The crowd gasps, reporters scribbling on their notepads and cameras flashing. Every civilian in the city believes in her. Do you understand? Lena nods, a tear falling. Kate sighs, never realizing she didnt know the heros past. What else? With everyone around just five feet outside the door? Well, for goodness sake, Lena says, stopping her speech. One dreaded, horrible person she cant stop thinking about. Kara hears it from inside the DEO where she still stands at the roundtable. So, I just wanted to let you know that I am grateful for the friendship weve had., She may not see it the way I do, but my guilt has built up for too long not to tell her., Ill be fine, Alex. A ripping of stitches. The message was playing on every station, worldwide. To forgive herself for lying to you. He pauses again. You were the only family I had. I write scenarios to keep my mind from thinking the worst between characters. But there is a reason to her madness. I didnt even react to the shooter. Kara grabs a notepad from her junk drawer in her kitchen, using the gamepad for Pictionary. She grabs them both and returns to the bed, looking over the tattered cover of Romeo and Juliet. She grabs all the hangers at once and plops them into the box before carrying it over to the couch. I wouldnt be surprised, Kara answers, glancing up to Mon-El. She was more in pain than angry, although anger took up much of her emotion. I hope you like it. Lena doesnt move, just gazes at her like shes seen a ghost. And she was so proud of her for the longest time because Lena was living up to those standards, she was breaking away from her harmful family. The knuckles turn white as they squeeze tighter, hair pulling and stinging at the scalp. I noticed it was gone. I cant just call her when I miss her.. He wants to tell Imra and deal with the Legion himself. Im glad youre willing, Mr. Luthor. I could barely keep up in our conversations with him rambling about a topic I had no interest in or I had never heard of. Are you all right? Alex asks, reaching out her hand and placing it on the side of Karas head. Finally, after a long and shaky jog to the end of the bridge, Kara can see the entrance that rests on stable ground. Mon-El walks up to her rubbing his neck. Well, that was a lie. Hang on a second, Nia, she says, stopping her once more. Rock formations jut out and up into the sky in several places, casting large shadows onto the sand. She couldnt live with herself. Especially with her voice trails and lands on the Kryptonite Lena holds. None that I can think of. Lets fix this together., Lena swallows the lump in her throat. I would love for you both to be there, standing with me., Of course, James says, putting a hand on Lenas. He steps up and sits down on the table, planting his feet on the bench portion and setting the food beside him. Seven years, he thinks. She grins, displaying blood-stained teeth. After everything Kara had taught her; to be sympathetic, forgiving, ruthless, Lena didnt take anything away from it. This story sounded like it had a few similarities with her and Lena. Guys, I think we found a solution! Calls Winn ecstatically. Kara recoils, disgusted with what Lena just said. Nice one, her sister shouts, waving at William over her shoulder. No, I dont mean like that. When you see that, we will be waiting for you. No, I do. So, what next Supergirl?. Im glad we could work this out appropriately, she says, her monotoned voice coming out to disguise her true feelings toward their conversation. Its a demand. They sit close once more, a separate seat taken by their food. Kara stutters, stepping back. Okay. Ellen. You dont even know how many people are working on clearing your name. No, no. Kara knows it. Shes in trouble. Um, its all right, she says hesitantly, taking a stab at her first conclusion. But she had finally gained the trust of the city because of what she is and not who she is. Theres nothing more we can do about it because its over, it happened, we cant ever gain it back.. When I was with Mon-El, there were never any real dates. She catches it and holds him, bringing tears to her eyes. Lena sits outside the infirmary doors, legs still stretched out in front of her and head pressed against the cement wall. As if on cue, an identical Supergirl approaches the hero, facing her seriously. You always do.. She simply sits there, playing with her red hands. This is Mxy. A plan for world domination, a plan for a machine, a plan for getting out of bed in the morning. There. Yes, you can, goddamnit. Are you okay? Hi, Lena. When she first started as the hero, that was all she wanted. Yes, this was her decision. As well as your friends. The real Kara. Youre a new father now. I think its time for the cape to finally be dry-cleaned. Kara chuckles sadly, closing her eyes. She feels his body shrink, his smell clot in her nose and his hands pet her hair. The Luthor who lived up to her name, the Luthor who succeeded in killing a Super. And that was what she learned. So Mon-El, you can say whatever you believe about me not ruining things between you and Imra, but I am. None of it was real. I wouldnt worry about her hearing us. Im here, Kara swallows, blood from her lips slipping down her chin. A label I dont want, and neither does she. He inches closer to her. Not this time. Lena turns quickly, her hand hanging heavily at her side as she holds a deadly device. Theres a knock at Lenas door and she stands and smiles before striding over to it. Lena tilts her head at him, brow furrowed. At the sound of Lena, Kara hurriedly rubs her hands around her stomach, covering them in red. Okay, I think you had a little too much to drink, Kara says, settling her in and standing back up. All these little cases here and there, they are all tied together. Alex she begins. His eyes close for a moment, remembering the memories, and when they open Kara is standing in front of him; three boxes behind her. Alex arrives late to Karas loft for their regularly-scheduled Sisters Night. Kara Zor-El! Kara stumbles as she reaches flat ground, almost falling and having to put a hand on the pavement to stop herself from toppling over. Because if you do not obey, I will tell the world the secrets your family and friends hide, and then I will kill them in front of you. She ruined me too. You havent been the same since they came into your life. Oh, me too, Kelly says, reaching her arms up for Alex to bring her to her feet. You think Mon-El is having trouble getting it up?, Alex smiles, shoveling a fork of twisted noodles into her mouth. Written in red is the word HELP. You had me believing you actually hated Supergirl., Lena almost chokes on her whiskey. Marsdin grins at her, looking her up and down. She doesnt understand.. They were so exhausted that even if they tried to protest, they didnt last long. Trusted him enough to know that he would not hurt her too badly or lie to her for too long. When Krypton was destroyed, debris from my home damaged his to the point that it became inhabitable. Karas gaze snaps up to her, flinching. He nods and scoops up the alien, carrying him outside. But you didnt come back a whole week early just because you missedme. That was all. Do what? Kara shakes her head, raising her hands to her friend and reaching out gently, walking toward her. Kara is not of sound mind, and she has deadly superpowers.
