Moment
Alex is in danger.
Time slows then, freezing like a photograph. The corrupted version of Kara is hovering before Alex and oozing malevolence and he knows, knows that Alex will die if he doesn't save her.
(It would ruin Kara too, but then and there he is more concerned about the elder Danvers sister.)
And there in the space between seconds he acknowledges what is about to happen, what he is about to do, what the consequences will be, but he's already pushing himself to his feet, red light dancing over his skin as he sheds the life he has lived for eleven years—
(Years of fear and caution undone in a heartbeat, because he is going to save Alex no matter what the cost. The idea of not saving her never crosses his mind.)
-and Hank Henshaw dies again as the transformation is complete, and J'onn J'onzz sprints into the light.
Because holy feels, that scene!
