AUTHORS NOTE: This story takes place roughly around the Supergirl episode 'Strange visitor from another planet'. This is my take on essentially what was going on while Kara, Alex and Hank were dealing with the White Martian. It also continues on what happens after Kara and Alex see 'Supergirl' on the news. I do not own either Supergirl or Arrow this is simply me doing creative writing.
National City, Cat. Co Media
It was a slow day at work and Kara was enjoying the last five minutes of her break. James was out doing coverage for Senator Crane's anti-alien pep rally and Kara knew from her talk with Alex this morning that her big sister would be there as well, discreetly providing security. It's funny she thought how she herself pretended to be an assistant while her sister pretended to be FBI in spite of her actual job affiliation with the Department of Extra-normal Operations, guess secrecy runs even in her adoptive family she mused.
Kara threw out her empty salad box and booted up her computer. Going online she clicked on the top trending video to watch to kill time. Winn was acting distant ever since the incident last week when his father escaped from jail and blackmailed him into trying to murder someone. Thanks to her nobody was hurt and Schott Senior would be spending the rest of his life in a more high secured prison. The event its self seemed to have taken its toll on Winn even more so since he confessed that he loved her. And what did she do: rejected his advances and said to remain friends. The thought made her feel bad she should've comforted him and instead she hurt him more than a super strength punch ever could. Winn didn't even want to have lunch with her like old times, so instead she spent it watching online vids hoping to take her mind off the subject that bothered her. To her joy the one trending video she liked was listed and one that was wasn't about her exploits as Supergirl. Half way through watching a voice caught her attention.
'What are you watching?' The voice asked curiously
Kara turned to see Cat co's new hire, Lucy Lane standing behind her.
'Oh nothing just...' Kara started to say while she scooted over in her seat as Lucy moved in for a closer look. The video was of the announcement that was broadcasted in Star City two months ago.
'The Green Arrow's PSA, really?' Lucy asked in disbelief.
'Well yeah, it's nice to see other heroes besides Supergirl for a change, especially one like him' Kara explained.
'Sounds like you're a fan.' Lucy retorted.
Kara couldn't deny that, in the years before becoming Supergirl she took notice of the other heroes that had been slowly emerging over the years, other extraordinary individuals all over the country were performing feats of heroism in their own cities. But the one that stood out to her even more than her own cousin was the hooded archer known as The Arrow. What impressed Kara was that he was doing much of what she did as Supergirl, saving people, fighting criminals and other powerful beings. Yet from all accounts The Arrow was a man a simple human who always put himself in danger, he wasn't strong at least not enough to lift a bus or bulletproof and he could be easily injured or even killed but still went on his crusade even at the risk of his own life. Unfortunately that came to pass eight months ago when The Arrow was revealed to be a young boy named Roy Harper, Harper was arrested and eventually killed while in prison. Shame she thought, that someone who wanted to do good would suddenly just murder the Mayor of his city. There were times Kara wished she could've met him and just say what an inspiration he was before all of that. Two months ago a new guy announced he would carry on as the new protector of Star City to carry on in The Arrow's place, no matter how many times Kara saw the video it still gave her a sense of admiration for this new hero who called himself the Green Arrow.
'Kira! Quit lollygagging!' Cat Grant's sharp voice snapped the two girls back to reality.
'I need this list of tasks done by the working day! Lane, come with me we need to talk!'
Cat rapped out as she placed the to-do list on Kara's desk before stalking off.
'Sorry duty calls.' Lucy said meekly as she went to follow her boss.
Suddenly a familiar ping ringed through Kara's ears a sound only she could hear with her super hearing, the sound of James emergency signal watch.
'No kidding' she thought to herself before rushing off.
He saw her outline in the machine's window as the process neared completion. He was smart to capture that image of her that the camera he planted caught. Soon all of his plans would be worth it. His moment of success was suddenly interrupted by the PA in his lab.
'Sir?' a female voice called.
He walked to the system and pressed the speak button.
'Yes, Paulina?' He said with slight irritation
'Your visitors, their plane just landed.' His assistant replied
Darn, he thought. He'd almost forgotten about his appointment. Still if everything he was working months towards would be successful code phoenix was his main priority.
'Send the chauffeur to pick them up I'll call them.' He said as walked to his desk and picked up his cell phone.
Oliver pushed Felicity's wheelchair off the ramp of the plane and onto the tarmac.
'I just wish we'd have enough time to do sightseeing before this meeting.' Felicity groaned as Oliver pushed her to the airport terminal.
'We'll have plenty of time to do that after this is over' Oliver stated as he pecked her cheek.
'Still don't get why you felt like you'd have to come along, I mean it's not even your company anymore, you don't even have investment shares.' Felicity argued.
'You supported my bid in running for Mayor this is just me doing the same, besides I have a chance to enjoy this few week truce, aren't you always saying that life is precious?' Oliver said back.
Suddenly a phone ringing caught their attention, Felicity dug through her purse to answer it.
'Hello.' She answered
'Good morning Miss. Smoak.' The male voice on the other line said.
'Mr. Lord!' Felicity replied in surprise. 'I was just...well...I just landed in National City and we're on our way to meet you now...uh and by 'we' I mean me and Oliver Queen.'
'Yes, about that, I'm in the middle of an important board meeting one that has taken up more time than expected and one that won't be ending anytime today. As a fellow company head I'm sure you can understand, and so I won't be able to meet you.' he explained sounding regretful.
'Oh I see' Felicity said disappointingly.
'Let me make it up to you both, my chauffeur will be at the airport in ten minutes and I've instructed him to take you anywhere you'd like in National City. I've taken the liberty of booking a room for you two in the city's best hotel and the expenses of any sightseeing activities you'd like to partake in will be covered by me.' He said with a smirk in his voice.
'Mr. Lord that's very generous but I...' Felicity stammered.
'I'm offering you a gift, Miss. Smoak, to show my sincerity the worst you can do is say no.' He insisted.
'Alright then, thank you very much and I look forward to our meeting' Felicity said graciously.
'As do I, we'll meet tomorrow morning at my company. I'm sure this potential partnership will benefit both our companies' interests. See you soon.' He said as he hung up the phone.
Felicity hung up her phone and looked up at Oliver, smiling.
'Looks like we're going to be sightseeing after all.' She said as she and Oliver walked through the terminal doors.
Max approached the machine it beeped signaling its completion. As the liquid drained he couldn't help but smile at his success. From the window he could see her clearly, her face was the one thing that he prided himself with it looked just like Supergirl's.
