Kara swooped over the tops of the glittering buildings, she seemed to spend more time as Supergirl then as her human counterpart lately, ever since Mon El had to leave the earth. The blonde sighed and landed softly on a building below her, wanting to be alone for a moment longer before the next call came in for her to deal with.

She dropped her head into her hand as she sat on the edge with her legs hanging over the ledge of the skyscraper, she looked out across the horizon seeing the other neighbouring skyscrapers, her eyes pausing on one, one with a giant illuminated 'L' on the rooftop. The lights in the CEO's office of 'L Corps' were still on and using her super eye sight she was able to see the elegant raven haired woman sitting at her desk, typing away on some sort of document.

Kara felt guilty, after she had to say goodbye to Mon El she hadn't seen a lot of Lena Luthor, the CEO had tried to call Kara and even at one point shown up to her apartment, Kara had lied and said she was ok which Lena had seen through right away, but the Luthor didn't push Kara, she understood that some people took longer to heal than others. Kara had felt terrible for not accepting her help but right now when she had to be out in the world as Supergirl she didn't want to have to be a smiling happy Kara Danvers right now.

"Supergirl receiving"

Kara's earpiece buzzed to life as her sister's voice echoed in her head

"Yer Alex I'm here" she answered taking her eyes away from Lena

"We got a bank robbery going on Downtown" she replied "Maggie says she could use some help"

Kara exhaled "I'm on my way"

Kara pushed herself off the building and started to free fall, faster and faster until she kicked in her powers and soared over the streets, she heard people gasp in excitement as they saw the hero of their city. She flashed past them and strained her super hearing to listen ahead to what the situation was, she saw the flashing light of the police vehicles and shortly after located Maggie who was trying to co-ordinate her officers, Kara landed slowly beside her

"Maggie" she greeted "How can I help?"

Maggie turned "Supergirl" she said keeping her knowing the real Kara on the down low "They have hostages inside, from what we know there are three gunman and seven hostages, they haven't given any demands… it's strange"

Kara looked towards the building, she used her hearing to listen, but nothing was being said, there were a few shuffling of feet and whimpers from the hostages but it was unusually quiet, no planning or concerns that the cops were here.

"I'll clear them out" the blonde said before speeding off into the building

She entered the building and saw the situation, there were indeed three gunman, two had the hostages pinned down on the floor, the third man was standing there just watching his watch, Kara halted in front of them

"Give up and I won't have to take you down, the police have surrounded the building" Kara prepared herself for a fight

The man didn't even look up at her at first, his eyes fixed to his watch

"Did you hear me?" Kara asked wondering what the hell was going on

After another moment the man looked up, he placed his gun slowly on the floor, as did the two others, Kara's brows knitted together as she watched the man in front of her, it was if he was trying to keep his face straight

"We surrender Supergirl" he raised his hands in a yielding

Maggie and the other cops filed in at that moment and arrested them, Kara watched them as they were taken away, but something felt off, it was like they were waiting for Kara to swoop in.

She dismissed it as they were securely locked away and driven down to the police department, she followed the vehicles until she was sure nothing else was going to happen but it was all smooth sailing.

She headed back to the DEO shortly afterwards allowing the cops to do their paperwork, Maggie looked like she was going to murder someone when a bunch of unfinished documents were dropped on her desk, Kara had swiftly exited then.

"Hey Kara" Alex greeted sensing her sister's presence behind her, she turned and smiled warmly at her "Good job… How you holding up?"

Kara put on a fake smile "Yer I'm fine" she lied

Her sister saw through it instantly, she moved toward her and slung an arm around her shoulders

"Well… Maggie is going to be working late tonight so…." She gave her a lopsided grin "Why don't we go back to yours and order some food and maybe watch some Homeland?"

Kara looked at her sister "Maybe another time, I just want to go home and sleep" she said not wanting to hurt Alex's feelings by just saying no flat out

Alex seemed to understand instantly what she was trying to say, she nodded sadly but she did not argue "Text me later?" she asked

"Of course" She said as she wrapped her arms around the brunette "Thanks Alex"

They shared on last smile before Kara took off into the night sky, she inhaled deeply as she swooped through the streets and landed softly in through her apartments open window, she stood there for a moment looking around her own room, seeing her own things. She didn't even bother taking off her outfit before collapsing on her bed, she laid awake for hours listening to the traffic outside, the neighbours TV. Her night started out restless, she found it difficult to sleep, her goodbye with Mon El flashing through her mind as it had done every night since he had to leave earth, leave her, but eventually she fell into a deep sleep.
