A/N: Thanks for the comments.
alexfan101 - Thanks. I will try to post updates most days.
Guest (1) - Thanks
Guest (2) - I hope you enjoy it and it goes on.
Guest (3) - When Lockwood had the conversation on the phone about giving Agent Liberty a rest for awhile I was hoping that call was with a shady mastermind behind the scene who is the real powerhouse and could be controlling both Lockwood and the President. Having Baker just being controlled by polls tragically doesn't sound that unreasonable anymore.
DirectorDanvers - To me the sisters are what makes the show, so there will be plenty of sister moments in this, but not for the first few chapters.
Guest (4) - Don't worry, there will be angst.
Guest (5) - Regarding the cross over, not so much to be honest. Mainly as I won't have time to watch all the episodes this year.
danverssisters - Thanks. I'll consider any idea and I've not down that one before. But it kind of comes down to time. But I do have another 10 hours on a plane this week so I'll see if anything comes to mind then.
"Where is Director Danvers?" Haley asked as she walked into the command room the next morning.
"According to her calendar she is scheduled to be in a meeting with you." Brainy said.
"I am well aware of that. I am also aware she did not turn up for the meeting. So where is she?" Haley asked.
"I don't know." Brainy replied, but when Haley stared at him he suggested. "I can try tracking her...strange there is no signal from her tracker. Let me try her phone...or Supergirl may know." He said seeing Supergirl walk towards them.
"Supergirl no longer works here." Haley pointed out.
"Yet she is behind you." Brainy said pointing, causing Haley to turn around.
"Supergirl? I'm surprised to see you. Does this mean you have had a change of heart?" The Colonel asked.
"I thought we should talk." Supergirl said. "And you clearly want to ask me something." She added pointing to Brainy.
"I can not talk to you about DEO matters." Haley said just before Brainy jumped in and explained.
"We need to know the whereabouts of Director Danvers."
"Isn't she here?" Supergirl asked frowning.
"If she were here why would I be asking about her location?" Haley asked, missing having well drilled soldiers for subordinates.
"Brainy?" Supergirl asked.
"I am tracking her phone...and I have found it. It is -" He started but before he could finish Supergirl had read the address and was flying to the location.
"Well?" Haley asked when Supergirl returned a few minutes later.
"She wasn't there." Supergirl said before dropping a metal box on the table. "But this was."
"Not all of us are indestructible. We have protocols in place to protect the men and women who work here. Men and women who do not want to be blown up by a suspect package that you chose to fly in here." Haley pointed out.
"There's no explosives. I checked." Supergirl said before adding. "If you prefer I can take the contents somewhere else and find Director Danvers without you."
"Open it." Haley said. Nodding Supergirl opened the box and pulled out Alex's smashed phone, a piece of metal covered in blood, which Brainy identified as her tracker. Finally she pulled out a piece of paper with numbers on.
"It is an IP address." Brainy said. "Should I load it up?"
"Do it." Haley ordered.
"The website will be displayed on the central screen." He explained as the screen flicked to life. As it did so it showed Alex strapped to a chair, her face bruised and bloodied. Her shirt ripped at the shoulder and her skin caked in blood from where her tracker had been removed.
"Alex?" Supergirl asked dismayed. But before anyone could take in all of Alex's wounds their access to the website alerted Alex's captors, including Agent Liberty who walked into view.
"Has Lockwood escaped?" Supergirl asked.
"No, this must be an imposter." Brainy said.
"Our cause is just, our cause is right, our cause is for humanity." The masked figure said. "Take one of us down another will rise. Agent Liberty and the Children of Liberty can not be stopped." He then stepped closer to Alex and yanked her head back, forcing her to face the camera.
"Alexandra Danvers, head of an organisation that was meant to protect humanity. But she was corrupted by the Martian and the Kryptonian and failed in her duty. But she is still human and we believe she can still be redeemed. So we offer a trade, Director Danvers for Supergirl."
"Supergirl, don't do it. You are too important." Alex said looking directly at the camera. "The world needs you now more than ever."
"The world needs to purge the aliens not worship them." The new Agent Liberty said. "I had such hopes for you." He added before releasing Alex's head and taking out a knife. "Some people believe there are those beyond help, but I will try to supportive." With that he stabbed Alex in the leg. Looking back at the camera he said. "We all have choices to make, for example, humanity or aliens. So Supergirl will you make the trade or do you believe you are better than humanity?"
He paused and looked down at Alex then back at the camera.
"If you would like to trade then I will send instructions that only you will hear. But every thirty minutes you don't show will result in a broken bone for Director Danvers." He said before picking up Alex's hand and snapping a finger.
As Alex's scream rung out in the background, the screen went black.
"I assume you still won't work with me even for Alex?" Supergirl asked.
"No, not unless you tell me who you are." Haley said, pausing before adding. "My hands are tied." She paused and then said. "Even if you tell me your identity I can't support you making the trade."
"Then I will do this by myself." Supergirl said turning.
"You heard Director Danvers she told you not to make the trade." Haley said.
"Alex is more important than I am."
"Seeing you beat Superman in fight, you are literally the most powerful creature on this planet. I am not handing over my primary asset." Haley said.
"Good thing I am not your asset any more." Supergirl countered.
"There is a reason we do not negotiate with terrorists." Haley tried. "Director Danvers knew the risks."
"I'm not leaving her out there." Supergirl threw back.
"Let me make this very clear. If you walk out of here we will not be sending a rescue party for you. You will be completely on your own." Haley threatened.
"Works fine for my cousin." Supergirl said storming out of the DEO.
