According to Alex everything was going to get worse without even giving us time to react and, the truth is that we did not understand the reason why it was happening, although I could assure that, unless a cure was effective enough, it would end with my life, because it was still a poison for me.

I sighed looking at the window from where my brother watched me carefully, causing me to also observe him wanting to understand when we had lost confidence in each other, because I understood that it would be difficult to tell Kara, but to me ..., I was still his sister and I was not going to judge him, well, maybe I did, but not in the way he could think. I was not angry at the fact that he had remade his life, since for me it had only been seven months, but for him it had been years, so I could not expect to remain tied to a past that he did not even know if he was going to recover, because, even me, I had tried to continue forward, to try to convince myself that he was not here, nor was he going to be.

I looked away with tears in my eyes, beginning to cry almost without being able to avoid it, feeling as it was getting harder and harder for me to breathe, to introduce air into my lungs.

"Mya!" I heard him scream. "I need help!" He asked grabbing me at the moment my body stopped answering me. "Hey, no ..., Mya, please, stay awake" he started to cry while I I let myself go by the unconsciousness.


He could not calm down, of course he could not, not when his younger sister was inside that room and he had no explanation about what was happening.

He looked through the glass, noticing how Kara kissed Mya's forehead before sitting next to her and stroking her hair, which he envied, since he was her brother and should be there, although he could not deny it to Kara, since she had been the one who had taken care of the teenager in the last seven months.

He dried the tears that were beginning to fall down his cheeks, he could not lose her, although he was not sure if he had not already done so, because the words that his sister had said to him the night before were true and they had lost their confidence, but he could not tell which of the two had caused that situation, although if he could blame someone, it had been him.

"Mon-el, you can come inside." Alex approached him, but all he had to do was look at his sister to know that it was not the right time.

Mya had rested her head on Kara's shoulder before closing her eyes again, falling asleep again, which made him leave, maybe he should come back later and let her rest for now. However, it was Kara who signaled him to come inside, for what he did, observing his sister carefully.

"You should stay with her, she needs you even if she doesn't show it" she looked at him leaving the child lying down on the bed before moving away so that he could get close to her while he smiled gratefully. "Let me know if something happens" she asked.

He nodded at her words, watching her leave shortly before taking his sister in his arms, sitting on the bed to hold her, noting that she was paler than before, but that she seemed to breathe well, at least enough to continue living, but he was aware that they needed to find a cure.

He could not lose her, he refused to let that happen, that was one of the reasons why he was here, to save her and Kara, although he was aware that he should keep it a secret if he did not want to be prevented.

"Hey, how is your sister?" He heard Imra speak, which made him turn his head to look at her, watching as she sat in front of him.

"She's breathing, it's much more than I can say after this morning," he said, turning his attention back to Mya. "We have to find that cure." He said. "I'm here to save her, not to let her died in my arms" he felt how tears were becoming more and more present, so that he could not contain them any longer.

"You're going to save her, you're going to get it" Imra tried to calm him down.

"What if I don't get it?" He questioned between tears. "I found her tombstone, it was next to Kara's, she died seven months after I left" he started talking. "When that bomb was activated, I thought that it wouldn't affect her, but I was wrong, her Kryptonian physiology is still appearing, it's too weak to fight the allergy to lead," he explained looking at his sister again, stroking her face as he watched her."She's only seventeen, she's a kid, I can't allow it" he sobbed shaking his head.

"We have come to change the events and we are going to do it, your sister is not going to die" Imra spoke wanting to cheer him up, but it was a bit complicated, yes, that was his purpose, but it did not indicate that it was going to be fulfilled.

"I'm afraid," he admitted in a whisper. "Afraid of losing her even when she's alive, that at one point, she won't need me," he explained, feeling his sister move in her arms, opening her eyes to look at him. "Hey, sweetie" he whispered trying to smile at her.

"Is it true?" Mya asked.

"What?" He asked confused without understanding what she was referring to.

"Everything you just told," she replied looking directly into his eyes, which made him nod as she swallowed. "I'm going to die these days, right?" She arched an eyebrow as she looked at him.

"No, I'll find the cure, you'll be fine," he whispered, brushing the hair away from her face.

"You can not promise me that" she denied him. "You shouldn't play with these things, it may be my destiny and it is something that you can't change" she closed her eyes for a few seconds .

"Since when aren't we able to have a conversation?" He questioned to himself. "Is it because of Imra? Because you're attached to Kara?" He asked her, needing an answer.

"It trust her" she answered simply. "Imra..., I don't know her" he noticed how her sister looked at her for a few seconds.

"In Kara you trusted from the first moment" he said.

"Because she took me out of CADMUS, she saved my life" she looked at him again. "I think it would have been better if you had stayed in the future, maybe you're still in time to leave and let us die, you do us a favor" the tone was completely serious.

His sister's words made him stay silent for a few seconds, wanting to verify that this was really what she felt, but he did not find any doubt in the child's eyes, or anything that could indicate that she was not serious, which broke him completely.

"How are you able to ask me that?" He asked in a tiny voice, noting how she shook her head.

"Can you leave me alone?" She looked at both of them waiting for them to move.

"Mya .." he tried to continue talking but she repeated her request. "I've missed your stubbornness" he said releasing her before sittig up.

"And I missed your arrogance," he heard her murmur, causing him to turn to her wondering where the Mya he remembered was.

However, he did not dare say anything else, he only shook his head before leaving that room.


The moment I saw him disappear, I broke down, beginning to cry without being able to avoid it, sobbing loudly as I repeated my own words over and over in my head, knowing that I had hurt him, but it had been necessary for me. I was afraid that he would leave again, that he would have to return to the future, leaving me again, so, if to prevent him from doing me more damage, I had to convince him that I did not need him, I was going to do it.

I heard Kara calling me, making me look at her while I wiped my tears without stop sobbing, feeling how she wrapped her arms around me in an attempt to calm me down, but without achieving it.

"What happened?" She asked grabbing my face making me shake my head. "Mya, sweetie ..." she whispered, drying my tears.

"I ... I've asked him to let me die" I sobbed in her arms. "Why can't he do it?" I asked her. "He's going to leave, I know he's going to do it" I said separating myself from her.

"Who said he is going to leave?" She asked grabbing my face. "Mya, he's your brother, his role is to protect you, he will not stop until he gets you to be safe" she commented while I looked at her starting to calm down.

"Try to sleep, okay?" she said allowing me to lie down. "I love you" she kissed my forehead.

"I love you too" I whispered beginning to fall asleep.


She stayed in that room until Mya was completely asleep, watching her for a few seconds to make sure she was completely fine, even knowing that it was not like that. However, when she raised her head she could not react, but in turn, she sighed with relief, needing someone to watch her while she went to CatCo, so after keeping her gaze fixed on Imra, she nodded slightly.

"How is she?" Imra asked as she approached. "Mon-el is hurt by her words, but he also feels guilty," she explained, making her nod, knowing that what she was saying was true.

"Mya didn't intend to hurt him, she's only protecting herself from the possibility of losing him again" she explained, looking again at the young girl. "It has been seven hard months and she ..., she wouldn't bear it if he left again" she said remembering everything that had happened during that time. "Can you stay with her? I'll be back soon, but I need someone to watch her" she asked observing the indecision of Imra, who was prepared to deny it. "It's a really good kid, let her know you," she said trying to convince her.

"I stay with her" Imra assured getting her to whisper a "thank you" before leaving.
