Two months after receiving a letter from Lilian Luthor, Alex had seen Kara plenty of times but she often wondered if her fate was the same as Maggie's. She saw Lilian die at the hands of Lena, she stood there and watched her neck get snapped. At least she thought she did. Alex sighed as she walked up and down her cell, brushing her teeth. Dark circles were beneath her eyes, but she couldn't get rid of them, even Kara asked about them and Alex made up the excuse of it being down to age, which Kara has the luxury of not being able to go through it.

Another letter was dropped through the bars. Alex briefly stopped brushing, taking the brush from her mouth. She picked the letter up, and opened it carefully. Inside she found a bud, it was tiny and she was confused as to what it was for. She then pulled out the letter, 'How long has it been since we last heard from each other? I have given you a little gift, put it into your ear and we can have constant communication while no one has a clue about what is going on, but one thing is for certain. You belong to CADMUS now. Working with you will be anything but a privilege.' The letter was signed, Lilian Luthor.

Alex sat down on the bed and stared at the tiny bud. She was very hesitant to pick it up, before she finally did. She slowly pushed it into her ear and as she did, there was sudden white noise, which she hissed at. Eventually she adjusted to it, before hearing that familiar voice, 'Alex Danvers.'The voice was one of delight as if she was happy that the next plan was coming together nicely, "Lilian Luthor." Alex said sternly, "What do you want?"

'Oh, you don't know?" She said, and Alex could hear her smile, "Maggie told you what would happen. The new earth looks amazing by the way, I'm very proud of Lena, but she married your alien sister. You will bring L-Corp down, and destroy every bit of happiness that her and your sister have ever had."

Alex went quiet for a moment, she hadn't even been told about Kara's new life but she quickly suspected it was because Kara never knew who was listening, "If my sister is happy, then I will let her be. The worst you will do is kill me, and I'm spending the rest of my life here anyway, so what difference does it make?"

"Oh no, you are getting pardoned and getting back into the DEO."

Alex merely laughed in disbelief, "J'onn would never allow me back."

"That Martian will be dead."

"You leave him alone Luthor!" She sneered, "He is my family, you ever go near him, I will kill you myself."

"Get with the program Danvers, you already tried and killed millions of others instead. I will see you soon." The line then went dead. Alex felt both relief and dread. Relief that she would be out of these four walls soon, and dread because she would soon be going back to normal life which she had forgotten. How she would adapt would be a struggle, but at least she could see Kara again.

Upon Alex's release only two days later, Alex left the gates for one final time. She couldn't help but smile when she saw Kara, she still hadn't aged at all.

"Lena is in the car." Kara smiled and hugged her, "Hey, it's so great to be able to touch you again." She squeezed her a little more.

"Kara." Alex gasped, under her grip.

"Oh, I'm, I'm sorry. I'm just really happy to see you." Kara said as she pulled away.

"And I'm beyond happy to be able to hug my little sister, so, first thing's first...That ring on your finger." She said pointedly, "You think I never noticed? I never asked because I just thought it was an heir loom from your mother or something and now I'm starting to join the dots." She said, nodding her head towards the car, "Is Lena-"

"Yes, well yes, very, but...I was not copying you, I j-I, well...we..." Kara said nervously, fixing her glasses on her face. Alex smiled and held her arms, "I'm happy for you. You have made me very very happy. You found your happiness, and I'm very proud of you." Alex smiled. She then began walking towards the car before Lilian spoke in her ear, 'Your dear sister cannot hear me, but plans will change over time.' Alex sighed, "I should've known."

"What?" Kara asked as she came to the back door from the trunk. Alex smiled nervously, "I said, I should have known...You and donuts." She said while pointing at the box on the back seat. Kara only smirked like a child, "I know. I went to Frosty's, the new store downtown."

"There's a new one? I mean, of course there is." She said, almost forgetting that she did blow up the planet ten years before.

"Although, they did rebuild the Lincolnshire show. I wanna take you."

"And you can, but first, I need to settle back in." She said with a small smile, looking very pale. Lena took a notice and was frowning behind her passenger side window. She then rolled it down, "Are you okay Danvers? You look a bit...off colour."

"Must be the fresh air. Come on, we all need a drink." Alex said nervously as her stomach jumped uncomfortably. Kara even frowned as she listened to her heart, "You're seeing a doctor at some point today. Just a check over, don't worry." Kara said softly, taking her sister's hand.

"We got married by the Fortress, admittedly it was very cold for Lena." Kara said, on the verge of laughing as they sat in the bar later on. Alex was enjoying the company, but being on edge wasn't helping. She knew Kara could sense it and because Lena and Kara had super hearing, it really didn't help. Alex had had five shots and seemed to have no intentions of stopping. Lilian was constantly speaking in her ear. Alex stood up suddenly when it got too much, and walked off to the bathroom. Both Lena and Kara frowned at each other and were thinking the same thing, What is wrong with Alex? Kara got up, "I should check on her."

Lena grabbed her hand, "Give her a minute, I'm sure she is okay. She is just...adjusting." Kara sat back down, "She isn't herself."

Alex stood at the sink, staring at herself in the mirror. Age certainly showed it's ugly face, Alex knew that time was taking it's toll and with her current predicament there was no way out. Lilian's voice swam through Alex's head like white noise. She put her finger in her ear and tried to pull out the bud, but as she did, her ear began bleeding. Even though it was bleeding, she wouldn't stop. She began screaming and crying, "LEAVE ME ALONE!" She screamed. Seconds later, both Kara and Lena were in the bathroom. As Kara stood at the door, she froze in shock, "Alex." She breathed.

"She won't leave me alone!" Alex sobbed, collapsing into Kara's arms.

"Who won't?" Kara asked softly as she rubbed her back. As Lena stood behind Kara, she stared at the blood on Alex's fingers, and instantly tried to find the source. She then found it, "Alex." Lena said nervously, "Who won't leave you alone?" She asked, having a small idea as to what the hell was happening.

"Lilian." Alex gasped, "Help me please."

"Lilian? I thought she was-" Kara gasped.

Lena straightened, a dark shade seemed to take over her features, "I should have known that it was too good to be true...It explains why Alex got pardoned. She wants something."

"She wants to destroy you."

"I won't let her. Alex you need rest." Lena said sternly.

Kara went quiet and cradled her sister.
