After a long, tough day, both Lena and Kara saw each other off.
"So, Supergirl will be here soon?" Lena asked Kara as the young woman slung her bag over her shoulder.
Kara nodded with a smile, "Miss Luthor, she will be here." She then looked at the journalist who had truly made her day.
Sarah Jane Smith.
She seemed like an utter mystery, but both Kara and Lena adored her. Kara even more so after she found out about this man who could travel in time and space.
Of course, in Kara's own nature, she wanted to know more about this lone time traveller. She wanted to meet this guy and she thought maybe in return for meeting Supergirl, Sarah might get her the chance to meet the Doctor.
"Well, have a good night Kara." Lena smiled as she gave her best friend a hug.
Kara smiled, feeling warm in her embrace, "Goodnight Lena." She then pulled away and looked at Sarah Jane, who just sat there with a smile on her face.
"Miss Smith." Kara nodded curtly.
Sarah Jane then stood up and gave Kara a hug herself, "It was a true honour to meet you Miss Danvers, and I'm sure, should I need you, I will have Miss Luthor as my first line of contact."
Kara blushed and smiled, "Thank you." She then looked at both Lena and Sarah and bid them goodnight once more before leaving.
"What an intriguing woman." Sarah Jane spoke aloud after Kara had left.
"She is certainly amazing in what she does, and who she is." Lena smiled as she sat at her desk, "Did she show you some good places around here?"
"We certainly did, and may I say, she has quite the appetite." Sarah Jane beamed.
"Pot stickers?" Lena quirked an eyebrow.
"Does she love those?"
"She adores them." Lena chuckled, "I honestly don't know where she puts all of it."
"What is her work like? How did a Luthor and a Super become like best friends?" Sarah Jane then cleared her throat, "I am not trying to sound rude, but what with your brother and Superman, anyone would have thought that you'd be exactly the same."
Lena smiled nervously, "That's how my brother and I are different. My mother on the other hand...She is forever trying to destroy either me or Supergirl."
"That's awful! Lena, you are an amazing human being." Sarah Jane gasped, appalled at the notion that people would even want her dead.
"Do people not see past the family name that was sadly bestowed upon you?"
"The perks of being a Luthor." Lena laughed darkly. She then turned her head as she heard a thud on the balcony.
"Right on cue." Lena smiled as she saw her hero outside.
Sarah Jane frowned at the figure dressed in red, yellow and blue. She quickly flicked up the face of her watch and did a scan of the Kryptonian woman.
She was aware of her being an alien, but the human persona shocked her.
She was Kara Danvers.
"Miss Luthor, Kara Danvers told me that you had a special guest for me to meet." Supergirl greeted.
"Of course, come this way." Lena said with a smile.
As Supergirl entered Sarah Jane's perimeter, the older woman stood up and held out her hand, "Sarah Jane Smith, and you must be the infamous Supergirl."
Supergirl laughed nervously, "That is me." She took a quick breath, "Kara Danvers told me that you have wanted to meet me really badly."
"Indeed, I have. It is an honour to meet National City's guardian." They shook firm hands for a brief moment.
"I don't think I have heard that one before, but yes, it is great to meet you too." Supergirl giggled.
Lena looked between the two, "I should leave you two alone. I will be downstairs dealing with some press stuff, you don't mind do you?"
"Not at all." Both women said in unison.
"Great." Lena grinned before leaving.
Sarah Jane took a deep breath and noticed her heart rate changing, "Miss Smith, are you okay?"
"I'm fine Supergirl...You know, I have met many aliens during my time...And you...Want to do good in the world...Many that I have met...they abuse that power and want to take over the world, but you and Superman are different." Sarah Jane reflected.
"Kara Danvers told me about the Time Traveller, The Doctor. It must be awful being the last of your kind...I remember when I lost my planet...When I got sent to Earth by my parents...I always thought I was the last of my kind, well, second to the last...But then..."
"Your aunt emerged from the Phantom Zone." Sarah said pointedly.
"How did you-" Supergirl began, sounding slightly higher pitched than she meant to.
"I am an investigative journalist who travelled with an alien for some time. I became a defense force for the Earth as well as Torchwood..." Sarah Jane began, "And I trust you Supergirl with what I am telling you, because I know who you are behind that coat of arms...I get it, you are a hero, but in front of me there is no need to lie."
Supergirl swallowed hard, "What is Torchwood? Who are you?"
"I think you'll find, if you ask the DEO Miss Danvers, they will tell you all you nees to know..." Sarah Jane then took a breath, "I have an alien computer in my attic, a Xylock. You may or may not have heard about-"
"A lot of this is overwhelming...You know who I am?" Supergirl gasped.
"Of course I do, and on the behalf of everyone on this planet, Torchwood, UNIT and the DEO, I'd like to thank you, but right now Supergirl we have a problem."
Supergirl's posture straightened, "The Doctor." She assumed.
"And the darkness. Something is coming from across the stars and we can't fight this alone. Please...Help us."
Supergirl nodded, "Of course, whatever you need."
