She didn't know what she was going to walk in to, I mean when does she ever know what she's walking in to. She was a god damn detective, she had dealt with aliens and bad guys for long enough.
She knew it wasn't going to be good. The fact that Supergirl hadn't already cleared and secured the scene by the time the police got there, she knew something had gone wrong.
Maggie cleared the main floor of the bank;
'Make sure they're ok'
she shouted to her team who were close behind;
'I'm gonna check the vault'.
She walked down the steps to see the vault door open and could hear someone breathing heavily inside. As Maggie rounded the door with her gun still drawn she was confronted with something she had never had to handle before. She called for her team to leave, to get out; if there was one thing she knew, it was that no one else could know about this.
With her gun now holstered, she made her way over to Kara, she could hear her gasping for breath. Maggie had dealt with her fair share of panic attacks, she knew how to calm herself down. Had even had to calm Alex out of them. But Supergirl, this was different; Kara Zor El was a super hero; Hell, Kara Danvers was a super hero!
Kara had been through a lot over the past few years, with the red kryptonite, Jeramiah, Mon El; and that's just what Maggie knew about. God knows what she is seeing right now, what she is reliving.
She should phone Alex.
'Kara. Kara, it's ok. It's ok'
She already had her phone out, calling Alex.
'Kara, c'mon 'lil Danvers. Look at me. Look at me. You need to focus on my voice. You are safe, it's Maggie, I'm here. I'm here. C'mon…'
She couldn't get through to her. She couldn't make Kara focus, listen.
Kara was crying, no, sobbing. She was mumbling something; Maggie couldn't make it out.
'Maggie. Maggie! What's happening? Are you ok? Are you with Supergirl?'
Maggie was so focused on Kara, her heart breaking at the sight of the blonde that she completely forgot she needed Alex. She shook herself and made her way to the phone.
'Al, I'm here. I'm with Kara. Alex, you need to get here, I don't know what to do, she's not responding, she's having a panic attack, but it's different, I can't get through to her!'
Maggie heard something behind her, she turned thinking it was one of her officers. A rage was building inside her as she was about to scold the officer for disobeying orders.
The phone fell from her hands as she realised who it was. She was still here. The woman. The woman who could get inside people's heads. The one who is responsible for the torture in Kara's mind.
'Maggie, you still there? We're on our way. Where are you? Maggie?'
'Alex, she's here.'
