Author's Note: This was meant to be a one-shot, but I have interview tomorrow. Thus, I need to go to bed early as it's like a three hour drive to my interview. So, sorry it's not long or complete. I wanted to post what I have done, though, to see what people's thoughts were. Please let me know what you think!

When I first started watching Supergirl, it bugged me that Kara would be fine after she was slammed to the ground by Non, as I remember from the cartoons growing up there were some opponents that gave Superman a run for his money, without using kryptonite. As a kid, I assumed they did not show blood in the cartoon because it was meant for elementary school kids. This is sort of correct, as Superman does bleed when he faces Doomsday. Plus, it seems more realistic to me that Kryptonians can bleed if they are hit with the right amount of pressure. So this fiction incorporates this idea to use as a device to write a Danvers sister bonding/moment fanfiction. I miss those moments in the show where it centered on Alex and Kara's sisterly bond, so I fill my heart by writing scenes myself.

Come on, come on, Alex thought with bated breath cataloging every noise she could make out from Kara's com. She listened intently trying to hold onto whatever she could—trying to hold on to her sister. She didn't have a visual anymore, so she clung to what she heard instead. It was all Alex could do to quell the helplessness gnawing in her stomach. Her bones ached with suspense and powerlessness.

Kara, you got this! You got this, thought Alex trying to soothe the panic in her veins.

The DEO was on their way. Kara just needed to last a little bit longer.

Blood dripped down Kara's face. She sported a deep gash near her hairline. The gash bled profusely leaving a red stream ending at her chin. The red liquid threatened to spill into the hairs of her eyebrow. Her knuckles were coated in blood. Her own red blood. To Kara, it was always a surreal seeing her own blood. Kara could feel the liquid by her eyebrow charting a path toward her left eye, and if she couldn't get space between her and the rogue alien so that she could wipe it away, she'd have to close her left eye.

They all assumed it would be an easy takedown like most alien takedowns were. It was a surprise to everyone, Kara and the DEO, after punching the alien hard, her knuckles had started bleeding. Winn, from that, and the appearance, identified the alien species as a Pruydakh.

Suddenly, seeing another attack incoming, Kara leaped into the air dodging the alien's giant hands trying to grab her again. She took a moment while airborne to use her arm to wipe the blood, near her eye, on her sleeve. She used her heat vision hoping it would have some effect on him. The alien gave a grunt as if it was just an irritating feeling for him.

The Pruydakh's skin was gray and wrinkled, much like an elephant, but the texture was abrasive. It was very gritty and could rip layers of skin from Kara's Kryptonian skin. Her bleeding knuckles showed as much. On top of that, the alien had a massive amount of super strength, enough to leave Kara with that bleeding head wound from when he had grabbed her cape and slammed down her into the cement roadway.

Alex had said once that she was not Indestructible and she was right. The Girl of Steel of was not completely invincible. An alien with a good amount of super strength, if they hit her hard enough, could make her bleed, cause bruising, and break her bones. The same was to be said about her own super strength—her own super-strength could make her bleed. The Danvers' family had figured this out first hand when Kara had first started developing her powers and had dug her nails too hard into her palm. At the time, Kara had woken up from a nightmare about her krypton and family, and as she tried to calm herself down, she had dug her nails into her palm. Hard. Way too hard.

The Pruydakh was an immense alien and stood at about eight feet in height. The face had four eyes, and each eye could look in a different direction. The alien's ears were set low on its snout-like jaw. The ears had an anthropomorphic appearance to them, but the ears had an abundant amount of hair sprouting from the helix. The hair was a dark ginger color. The nose was reminiscent of a snake, being rather tiny slits on its protruding snout mouth.

The Pruydakh opened it jaws and a screeching sound emitted. Not only did Kara's head pound painfully, but her ears were burning. It was as if the ear canal was on fire. The immense pain and pressure layering her brain were enough for her to lose her loft in the air. Her flight wavered, and soon she was falling. The was sound too much—she saw black spots everywhere. Kara's hands grasped her head as she fell from the air as if their hold would relieve the pressure.

"Kara!" Alex shouted concerned over the communicator. Unbeknownst to Kara, she had let out screams of pain. Screams Kara, herself, had not heard over the sound emitting from this creature's throat and mouth.

The alien, taking the opportunity, when she was in reach, nabbed her from the air by one of her legs. That's when the sound ceased. Kara's vision cleared, she was hanging upside down, and she could feel the alien's sandpaper like skin against her leg. Her hair dangled a few inches above the ground. If Kara tried to struggle to get her leg free, she knew layers of skin would rip off. She didn't have any other options.

"Kara, talk to me! What's going on?" ordered Alex trying to keep her voice calm. She was concerned, Kara had not responded to her first call of Kara's name. Kara, in fact, had not heard it over the screeching from the Pruydakh.

"He's got my leg. Alex, there isn't any other way." Kara replied and gritted her teeth. Preparing to struggle against the hand that held her upside down.

"Kara, J'onn is almost there with that tranquilizer. We are almost there too." Alex stated. Alex knew what Kara was implying she was going to do and steeled herself to hear Kara groan in pain.

Kara jerked her leg, her boot provided no protection, and she felt it disintegrate into shreds. Kara bit her lip as layers of skin was ripped from her calf. An unbidden shriek escaped her lips as the pain ripped through her leg. The stench of iron hit Kara, and she felt liquid running up her leg. It took Kara a few seconds to realize the smell was her blood running up her leg toward her, inverted, skirt. In response to her struggle, the Pruydakh tightened his grip around her leg. After that first jerk of her leg, Supergirl quickly concluded her struggle was futile. The pain limited her strength and made her effort much weaker than it would've been if the alien's skin wasn't a weapon itself.

The Pruydakh continued tightening his grip on Kara's leg. The abrasive skin painfully agitated the wounds that Kara had just created on the said leg in her effort to try to free herself. Not giving up, and terrified of the tightening on her leg, she swung her upper body up trying to deal a hard and solid punch into the alien's arm.

The action stopped midway as Pruydakh squeezed with all his strength on her leg. All Kara registered was a reverberating cracking. A multitude of cracking. The sound was similar to that of china shattering to pieces. Excruciating pain ripped through her body.

Alex, through her com, heard the most horrifying scream. Her heart clenched in her chest, and her mouth went unbearably dry. It was a scream Alex doubted she would ever forget. After the scream, came another mixed between a scream and a whimper.
