Unconquerable
Cat Grant had never been afraid of much. Even when she was younger, she knew that she could face whatever life threw at her. And the things that scared her, well that's what therapy was for. She's always had a solution to a problem, even when she was a kid. That was one of the few good things about having a mother like Katherine Grant. She pushed and pushed until Cat had no choice but to come up with solutions and answers. She learned how to fix her own problems, or at least try to fix them.
When Cat was twelve, Tommy Dallas stuck a spider in her lunch box because she wouldn't give him her snack during recess. He did that everyday for two weeks and even though she was never able to catch him, she knew with every fiber in her being that it was him. So, a couple of days later during class Tommy's pens suddenly kept running out of ink or somehow leaking in his pencil case. This lasted for an entire month.
In tenth grade, she found out that Ashley Merlon always copied her tests. And because this was a reoccurring thing, if she spoke to anyone about it she had the possibility of getting expelled. That and a couple of Ashley's friends had threated to beat her up if she told anyone. So, when the next one came, she made sure that all of the answers were in plain view. And just when it came time to hand the test in, she switched all of her answers to the right ones.
Her ex husband decided that spending time with his twenty-two year old secretary was more important than his son's National Science and Mathematics' Quiz semi finals, or coming to any of his Drama performances. So, she made sure that his reputation for further promotions was tarnished and he somehow ended up on the no-fly list for a while. There wasn't a thing that she couldn't conquer. Well, except for her fear of flying but her therapist said that had more to do with her inability to relinquish control. Besides, she had almost worked through it. She was prepared for anything life threw at her, or at least she thought she was. But when Supergirl pulled her aside that Tuesday morning, nothing could prepare her for the crippling fear she felt.
"Supergirl, nice of you to drop by." She said smiling when she saw the superhero land on her balcony.
The smile faded when she turned to Cat with wide eyes. "You really have no idea, do you?"
Her whole world shattered when she heard the Kryptonian's words. "Carter's been kidnapped."
