Chapter 1 Beyond Crisis on Earth X
Oliver and friends had defeated evil Oliver's army of Nazis and saved earth-1 from impending doom. It was a hard fight that came with it great cost for Oliver and his friends with the loss of Martin Stein. Oliver killed his evil double, Barry had let Thawne escape with the promise of a showdown at a latter time, and Kara captured Overgirl. Kara taking Overgirl captive did not go along well with her teammates for a few reasons first the team for what she represents hated Overgirl. Second she was one of the reasons why Stein was dead. Finally there was the fact that Overgirls heart was still unstable and could explode causing mass damage if she melted down. This caused a huge fight among the team " Kara you called her perverse and despicable the other day, and no you want to protect her." Oliver said. Kara turned to Oliver " Yes I know what I said about her Oliver just because she is evil does not mean we can just execute her. Further more aside from me and Clark she is the only other kryptonian alive so I can't just let you kill her." Alex then speaks up " Kara listen I understand why you want to take her back to National City with you, but her heart is still unstable and can explode at any time leveling the city its to dangerous not dealing with her now." Kara turned from glaring at Oliver to looking at her sister " I know the risk, but I or rather Supergirl called Lena back in National City to break out a piece of technology that Lex Luther created to clone Alien DNA specifically Kryptonian DNA in a few days. So I sent her a piece of my DNA so she can clone a heart for her, and perform the heart transplant surgery at the DEO and then we put her in a cell." Alex was stunned by her sister's statement " so you sent Lena your DNA and you never thought to tell me that you had her create a heart for Overgirl." Kara knew Alex would be upset if she found out " I was going to tell you, but we have been busy fighting evil Oliver and his army of Nazis so I am sorry I did not tell you Alex, but it would not have changed anything."
Kara and Alex argued for a number of minutes, but eventually Alex relented and gave into Kara. Kara and Alex left with Overgirl back to National City so they can get the surgery done before Overgirl went supernova. When they arrived at the DEO J'onn and Winn were waiting for them. Everyone was shocked when they saw Overgirl walking behind Kara and Alex, and how alike both she and supergirl looked, physically, yet so different mentally. J'onn informed both women that Lena had sent over the heart, and both knew that it was best to not wait for the surgery so immediately they took Overgirl to prepare her for the surgery. Kara is on the roof of the DEO building when she hears a familiar set of footsteps walking up behind her "Did Alex send you Diana." Diana Prince better known by some as the heroine Wonder Women walks up next to Kara "No Kara no one sent me I heard you and Alex returned from Central City with your doppelganger as a prisoner." Kara turned to her friend " Yes Barry and Iris's wedding was more then just a little interesting to say the least their was an evil version of Oliver with an army of Nazis at his back crashed the wedding. I discovered there is an evil version of myself from another dimension that I find perverse and despicable, and here I am against the advice of everyone I saved her from everyone else and brought her here to have a heart surgery to save her life. I mean I have no idea why I have gone out of my way for her when I know she wouldn't do the same for me if the situations were reversed." Diana saw the conflict on Kara's face " Kara that's why you're the hero you see someone like her and want to try and help them no matter how hard it maybe. Also she is a kryptonian and even though she is evil she is another connection you have back to your home world so of course you want to try to preserve that it's only natural." Kara knew Diana was right. Kara turned to Diana "Diana listen thank you for watching over the city when I was away its been great having you around to help out with the city, but also for just being their to talk when I need you." Diana smiled at her friend. In the year and half since Diana came to National City and helped stop the assassination attempt on Lena at the renaming ceremony of L Corp Diana had become great friends with the kryptonian and in away both she and Kara had became National City's dynamic duo. Also both women would spend endless time talking about anything and leaning on each when they needed to. For Diana she had really had nobody, but having Kara their to talked to helped and for Kara she found herself talking with Diana about thinks more and more instead of going to Alex to talk about things like before. After a few minute Kara and Diana continued talking about Overgirl mainly but other things as well until they both heard the door to the roof open and turning to see Alex standing their "Kara Overgirl asked to see you she has been refusing to do the surgery and some of us are getting nervous that she could blow at any minute so time is critical." Kara nods and she and Diana walk back inside.
Kara walks into Overgirls cell and sees the fierce foe in the corner of the cell. "So they tell me you don't want to get the surgery?" Overgirl looks up at Kara why should I everything I had is gone I can never return to my earth I lost my army, I lost my husband, I lost my freedom, and I lost my home world so why don't I just surrender my life what more do I have. " Kara goes to sit down across from her double "Look Kara I know what it is to lose everything remember aside from how we ended up in the end but we started of the same way with the destruction of Krypton. You and I may see the world in a different way, but inside we are the same you are one of three kryptonians on the world so please have the surgery." Overgirl began to chuckle at Kara's heart felt plea " so if I have this surgery I just become a caged animal no thanks I would rather take death then being your pet." Kara understood overgirl she was stubborn and proud so she knew she was going to have to make a deal with her that nobody is going to be happy with.
Kara walks out of the cell and finds Alex and everyone talking about what she suspected was overgirl. The group turned to her as she walked into the room " she agreed to do the surgery." To say that some of her friends where stunned was an understatement expecting overgirl to reject Kara. Alex went to find Kara because something was not adding up how did Kara convince overgirl to have the heart transplant. It took Alex a few minutes to find Kara and called out to her "Kara" this caused her sister to turn around "what did you say to overgirl that convinced her to have the transplant because everyone tried to convince her and then you go in their for ten minutes and convince her to have the surgery so what did you tell her?" Kara knew Alex would ask her this and she knew that she needed to have this conversation sooner rather then later so she looked at Alex and told her and told her to sit down. Kara sat next to her " Alex I know your going to be upset, but please keep an open mind." Alex nodded so Kara continued " So she was defiant at first and after talking with her I realized that she was broken she lost everything her husband, her earth, her home world. So she has nothing left so the only way to have her agree was to promise to give her freedom after the procedure." Kara braced herself for Alex's impending meltdown " YOU DID WHAT! Kara how can you promise her that she helped genocide millions of people on her earth, and she tried to take your heart, and you said you would let her go free after the operation." Kara tried to calm Alex down "Alex listen she is a broken women who has lost everything, and I think I should know better then anybody how she will react because I have been their and I understand her better then anybody, and I am pretty confident in saying I don't think she will cause trouble." Alex still could not believe Kara's decision "Kara this was a decision that we should have all made. We are about to take away her biggest weakness by fixing her heart, and if we set her free she could turn on us and put all of us and National City in danger." Kara responded "Alex I know it's a risk but I feel that it was worth the risk." Alex shuck her head still visibly upset at Kara's decision and even though she was not happy with it maybe Kara was right.
Alex and Kara went to join the others, as the surgery was underway Lena had arrived to see if the heart would work and everyone else was their just looking. As the surgery progressed Kara told the group of the deal that she made with Overgirl and to say the room was divided was an understatement. Mon El, Jimmy, and Winn where upset at the recklessness of the decision. Diana and Lena supported Supergirl's decision. Kara knew how Alex felt about the decision, but she did not know how J'onn felt about it being a stoic as ever. So Kara then announced to the group " so I know I made a rash decision in promising overgirl her freedom, but it was the only way to get her to have the surgery, but I recognize that I should have asked your opinions first. So know I am asking you guys what should we do with her after the surgery. After much deliberation the group decided to take a vote on whether they should give overgirl her freedom or lock her up and throw away the key. So one by one they voted Kara, Diana, and Lena both voted to give overgirl her freedom. Jimmy, Mon El, Winn, and Imra all voted to lock her up forever. It was a 3-4 split at the moment with Alex and J'onn left to vote. The attention of the group turned to the two outstanding votes when J'onn finally broke his silence " I have listened to both arguments there are risks, but I trust Supergirls judgment and if she says she has confidence in overgirl then I will take her word for it so I vote to give overgirl her freedom. With J'onn's vote it was all tied up with Alex playing the tie-breaking vote Kara knew that Alex was divided on this because of their earlier conversation so she did not know what Alex would do. It took Alex a few minutes to speak "I was there when Overgirl and her evil army came into the picture, and I have seen what overgirl can do and the threat she can be if she is let free. That being said like J'onn I have to trust in Kara's judgment in this situation because Kara may have a special insight in overgirl that none of us can understand. So if Kara thinks overgirl will pose no threat to the public then I say lets release her after the surgery." To say Kara was shocked at Alex's decision was an understatement she was certain that Alex was going to say no, but she was happy that she said yes. So it was decided that they would release overgirl after the transplant and set her up with an identity in National City.
Overgirl's surgery took another few hours, but went very well with no complications. After the decision to give overgirl her freedom J'onn and Alex had gone to work preparing her new identity, Lena had to leave for a meeting back at L corp, Mon El, Winn, Jimmy, and Imra left upset with the decision. After the surgery Overgirl was put in a room to recover Kara went to sit next to her, and was joined by Diana "You know Kara despite what some of the others may think you did a very good thing for her." Kara nodded her head she knew she just hoped it did not comeback and bight her in the ass later. Alex walked into the room an hour later holding a folder " Here Kara when she comes around give her this J'onn and I put together an identity for her and set her up with a place to live with in the city." Kara took the folder form her sister seeing the name on the folder made Kara chuckle it read Kiara Wagner the first name being the way Cat Grant would sometimes pronounce her first name. Alex then began to speak again "J'onn and I both thought that she would appreciate something a little more Germanic considering where she came from." Kara nodded in agreement. Alex saw the tired look on Kara's face and knew it had been a while since Kara slept "Kara you should go home and get some sleep you have a busy few days." Kara was hesitant she knew Alex was right she should get some sleep, but she did not want Kiara to wake up alone. Diana then chimed "Kara I will stay here with her if that will make you more comfortable while you get some rest." Kara turned to Diana and relaxed a little knowing someone she trusted would be here to watch overgirl. So Kara relented and handed Diana the folder "call me the minute that she wakes up Diana." Diana nods at Kara's request.
Diana has been by overgirl's side for a while now and she has still not woken up. Diana stared at the still form of the Kryptonian, and admired the beauty of the young girl. It's hard to believe that the girl lying in front of her was an exact physical copy of Kara yet was responsible for the death and persecution of billions. After admiring the Kryptonian for another few minutes Diana realized that the girl was starting to stir, and called one of the doctors informing them that the patient was waking, and also to call Kara. Diana then went to sit down next to her again.
Overgirl woke form her slumber still mildly in pain grateful for her quick healing ability considering she just had heart transplant surgery, and she only felt a little sore. Her eyes then went to the figure sitting right next to her. She was stunned at the beauty of the women from the raven black hair, and her eyes where a brilliant shade of brown. Before she could examine the women any further she was broken from her revelry when the women spoke "hello my name is Diana of Themyscira, princess of the Amazons and daughter of Queen Hippolyta." Overgirl smirked " that's a mouth full." Diana smirked at the comment " how do you feel?" Overgirl once again made eye contact with Diana " I feel fine thanks to the Kryptonian DNA I am just sore and should be okay in a few more hours." Diana nodded her " Kara should be hearing in a few minutes to discuss where we go from here." Overgirl nodded already hearing Kara coming and expecting her within the next minute. Thirty seconds later Kara walks into the door of the room " How is she doing?" asked Kara. Diana turned to Kara " she is doing well it seems her Kryptonian healing factor will have her up and about in a few hours. Diana then got up to give the two privacy so they can talk, but before Diana left she heard a voice say something to her " Hey beautiful don't stay away for to long." Looking back Diana saw overgirl wink at her giving Diana pause, but she quickly composed her and left the room.
Kara sits next to her doppelganger "my team and I discussed our deal, and though it was close vote we decided to follow through with releasing you." Overgirl is a little stunned yah Kara ha promised to let her free, but the fact that the team voted her release stunned her. J'onn and Alex, put together a new identity for you. Your new name will be Kiara Wagner." The name surprised her " Interesting the name is rather Germanic." Kara nodded " Alex and J'onn felt that you would like the name better if you could identify with it more and so they made it more Germanic." Kiara nods " Well I approve of it." Kara gave a small smile thanking Rao that Kiara liked the name because if she could avoid any drama she would. Kara then looked back at Kiara "So what are you going to do now that you're free? Overgirl had a puzzled look because she didn't know what she was going to do if she was being honest. She could not return to her world, and she knew almost no one here, and the people she did know hated or didn't trust her. One thing was bothering her however that Diana women was on her mind since the women left the room, and she did not know why she barely knew her, and she had to think that Diana would be like the rest of supergirls band of merry hero's. Still Kiara wanted to investigate what ever this was between her and the amazon. So Kiara looked at Kara again "to honest and I know you and your friends may have a problem with this, but I was thinking about staying here in National City. I can't go back to Earth X now, and I don't know anybody here, and despite are differences you may be the only true connection I have here." The statement stunned Kara to say the least she was not expecting that from her doppelganger. "You want to stay here in National City." Overgirl nodded affirmatively "I know that may be harder then leaving because most of your team like your sister have a problem with me, but if I am going to make a life here on this earth this is my best shot at it." Supergirl understood to an extent what Kiara was saying this for her is like coming to another planet for the second time in her life and starting over from scratch again, and Kara being Kara wanted to help her if she can even if deep down she thought it could be a futile task. Kara turned to the other women "if you can promise me right now that you will in no way harm the people of the city despite your prejudices then you can stay here, but I swear if you do anything to hurt the people I care about or the city its not going to go well for you and you don't have your army of Nazis at your beck and call anymore." with that Kara extended her hand to Kiara. Kiara looked at the hand and nodded then she shook Kara's extended hand you have a deal, and with that Kara got up and left the room knowing that there is going to be a fire fight when she informs the team about overgirl's decision to stay in National City.
It took a while, but after much fighting and deliberation between the team everyone relented and gave there blessing. After the decision was made Kara was going to go inform Kiara of the decision when Diana caught up with her in the hallway. "So where is she going to stay." Kara really had no idea how to answer that she did not trust her enough to have her stay at the DEO or with any of her friends. So really the logical choice was to stay at her apartment. So she looked at Diana and told her a much. Diana then looked at Kara "She can stay with me in my penthouse if that would make it easier for you. This caught Kara of guard wait you want her to stay with Diana you barely know plus she is dangerous and unpredictable." This caused Diana to chuckle Kara I have stood face to face with powerful beings before I know how to take care of myself, and on another note I don't know what it is, but I have this feeling that revolves around. Maybe I can help her like I helped you I mean it is worth a shot don't you think?" Kara looked away form Diana analyzing what the amazon was saying, and to be honest it was true if anybody can really help Kiara it was probably Diana so she decided to roll the dice and turned back at Diana "fine if that's what you want Diana I will run it past her, but I swear if there is any trouble what so ever you yell and I will be their in seconds." Diana chuckled at the overprotectiveness of the Kryptonian but nodded her agreement at the request, and the two went their separate ways Diana now going to prepare her apartment for her new guest and Kara to inform her doppelganger of her living arrangements. However Kara was not sure what was going on with Diana and her interest in Overgirl, but she would just have to wait and see what the situation is.
