"Danvers." Maggie said sternly as she walked into the main command centre of the DEO. Alex was standing with arms crossed looking at the projected image above. She passively nodded as she drummed her fingers on her arm, "Maggie." Alex said blankly.
Maggie looked up at the projected image, "Metallo?" She asked curiously, "I thought he was destroyed wayback."
"Me too, but it looks like CADMAS are one step ahead of us. We recently beat Daxamite butt, and now this..." She said rather calmly, clearly worried, "And Kara is off-radar, I j-Something is wrong with her Maggie and I don't know how to fix it. I know Mon-El left a few months ago and I thought she was over that with how happy she's seemed."
Maggie put her arms around Alex's shoulder and pulled her close. Alex felt her lip trembling slightly, "I'm trying, you know to see it from her point of view, if I were in her shoes but..."
"Grief takes many forms Danvers. She will have up days, down days and all of the inbetween." She said softly, before kissing her cheek, "Just give her time." Alex nodded, before hugging Maggie, keeping hold of her for a while longer than she should. She then frowned at the sight of Supergirl, "Supergirl?" Alex said with shock as she let go of Maggie. Maggie turned around, "Little Danvers, where have you been?"
"And wouldn't you like to know." Supergirl bit back in response. Maggie frowned, confused as to the way she was acting. She understood she was grieving, but like Alex, she thought she would be past the anger and blame stage by now.
Alex watched as Supergirl stood staring at the screen with her knuckles firmly placed on her hips. She approached her slowly, "Are you...Are you okay?" Alex asked softly.
"On top of the world Alex!" Kara snapped, sarcastically before catching sight of Maggie, and her glare was firmly fixed on Maggie. If looks could kill, this would be it. Kara rotated so her full front was facing Maggie, but she did not say anything. As Maggie was looking at her, she was put on edge while firmly being pissed off with all of the anger being pushed at her, "Problem?!" Maggie spat.
Alex was so confused. She kept passing looks to and from Maggie and Kara.
"I don't see a problem here." Kara said sarcastically, shrugging, "Do you Alex?"
Alex went to respond before Kara cut her off.
"Are you going to tell her Maggie or should I?" Kara asked, zeroing in on her.
Alex felt the rift between them and knew this wouldn't end well.
"What are you on about?" Maggie laughed with nervousness, "It would help if I knew where you were going with this...thing."
"If only my sister, your fiancé knew about who you really were." Kara sneered.
"Kara stop it!" Alex snapped.
Maggie now knew where Kara was going with this, and her glare was just as bad as Kara's. Maggie squared herself up to Supergirl even though she knew she would never win against the girl of steel.
"Will one of you tell me what is going on?" Alex asked them both.
"Don't you dare!" Maggie sneered at Kara.
"Why, because lying is better? I can't let you hurt my sister. I came first. Not you." Kara sneered, before turning to Alex, "She works for CADMAS, isn't that right Miss Sawyer?"
"Maggie?" Alex asked her, more or less astounded, and heartbroken.
"I've no idea what she is talking about." Maggie said sternly.
"Oh I think you do." Alex sneered, "I know when Kara is lying and she is telling the truth, why keep this from me?" Alex was reaching for the gun on her hip, but gave Maggie a fair chance to explain, but as she continued to ignore Alex, Alex handcuffed her. It broke her heart, but she couldn't take chances.
"Come on." Alex said with authority. She lead her down to a holding cell, "CADMAS...I don't believe it...I will never believe it. You need to start talking."
"And then what Danvers? You imprison me?"
"You asked me to marry you! I love you Maggie and you keep this from me?" She said, as she held back tears.
"Why does anyone lie? To protect those they love." Maggie said pointedly.
Alex went quiet, and left the room.
Please tell me what YOU think, I have no idea where to take this. I haven't written in a while, so feedback would be great. I'm thinking about maybe using prompts, however, I'd like to make this angsty and have lots of feels.
Thank you for reading :)
