It's been an hour since I left Cadmus with Lillian; we contained her and just waiting on Lena to get back to the DEO to see what she wants to do with Lillian.
"Kara, where's Lena?", my foster mom asked realizing that Lena hasn't come back yet.
"Not sure, I tried calling her cell phone and she wont pick up. I'm going to go back to Cadmus and see if she's still there. Maybe she found something in Lillian's files that can help us with Alex.", I said to Eliza.
"Be careful.", Eliza said before she headed back into Alex's room. As I got closer to Cadmus I could hear Lena's heart beating fast and I could hear what sounded like crying. When I flew into Lillian's office I saw Lena sitting on the floor hysterical crying. "Lee, what's wrong?", I asked her as I sat down next to her and pulled her into my arms to comfort her. "Did you find a cure?", I asked her once she calmed down a little.
"No, there's nothing here. Kara she must not have written it down anywhere. Only she knows how to help Alex. What if we never get the cure? I saw what happened to the test subject my mother used for the virus; it's bad Kara. I can't see Al go through that.", Lena said to me as she was still crying a little.
"We'll find a way to help Alex, we always do. Between you, mom, and Doctor Hamilton you will figure out the cure. I know you Lee; you're not going to let anything happen to your wife. I trust you, Alex trusts you and my mom does too. She'll come back from this I promise.", I said to Lena as I hugged her a little closer and kissed her forehead.
"I can't raise a kid on my own she has to pull through.", Lena said to me which got me so surprised. When I talked to Alex she said they were just figuring things out in the whole baby department; now Lena's telling me she's pregnant. But I would have known I would have been able to hear two heartbeats.
"What?", I asked her with a confused look on my face.
"Alex doesn't even know. I finished the project I was working on weeks ago; we both decided I would get pregnant first because my job doesn't demand me to be out in the field like Alex. We were telling everyone that we haven't decided yet because we didn't want to get everyone excited if it didn't work. But a few days after I was finished with the project we went to the doctors and started the procedure. Last night I went to the doctors and found out I was in fact pregnant. I was coming home to tell Alex and then you and Jimmy were there and then this happened.", Lena said to me with a small smile on her face.
"But I don't hear two heartbeats. I can tell when someone's pregnant.", I said to Lena even more confused.
"I'm wearing a lead accent belt. Like I said Alex and I didn't want anyone knowing right away. You get so excited with things and that causes you to be a blabber mouth.", Lena said with a laugh to her voice.
"That is true. I'm so excited I'm gonna be an Aunt again!", I said to Lena as I hugged her.
"Yeah, it's still early to tell people but I wanted you to know so we can fight this thing and get Alex better.", Lena said to me with a smile on her face.
"Well then let's get back to the DEO and get Alex well again.", I said to her. "Wait is flying okay for the baby?", I then asked Lena worried that we flew before and then we are going to fly now.
"It's okay to do every once in a while.", Lena said as she grabbed my hand and I flew off with a smile on my face. When we reached the DEO and landed on the balcony I could tell Lena was going to be sick she looked like she was about to puke.
"You okay?", I asked her as she was breathing to calm her self down.
"Yeah, maybe not.", Lena said as she ran to the bathroom as I ran after her.
"So that puking you did before was morning sickness not that you couldn't handle Alex being sick?", I asked Lena as I was holding her hair back and we sat on the floor again.
"It was a little of both. Well I guess now we know I can't fly.", Lena said with a laugh to her voice as I chuckled as well.
"Let's get you cleaned up, mom was wondering where you were.", I said to Lena as she cleaned up and we headed to Alex's room. When we reached Alex's room we saw Ruby resting on the chair that was sitting next to Alex's bed as Eliza and Doctor Hamilton were checking Alex's vitals.
"How is she?", Lena asked when we walked into the room.
"Mom, where were you?", Ruby ask as she slowly woke up and went to hug Lena.
"I was trying to see if my mother had anything that could help Mama.", Lena said to Ruby as she hugged her.
"By the look on your face I think it's safe to say you didn't?", Eliza asked Lena.
"No, I found videos of a test subject she used though. We are not letting Alex get like that. It was bad.", Lena said with fear in her voice.
"We won't let it get that far. Doctor Hamilton and I already started coming up with different ways to make a cure. We could use your help though, I'm sure Kara and Ruby will stay with Alex.", Eliza said to Lena with a small smile on her face.
"Yeah let me just talk to Al real quick.", Lena said as she walked over to Alex's bed and grabbed her hand. "You keep fighting okay, we are going to figure this out and then I have some exciting news for you. I love you so much.", Lena said into Alex's ear so that only I could hear what was being said.
"Right let's go, J'onn is trying to get information out of Lillian with James' help. Don't worry Kara we asked Winn to watch Addison.", Eliza said to me with a smile on her face.
"Thank you mom.", I said to her as Ruby and I sat next to Alex's bed.
"So what does Mom have to tell Mama? Or am I not allowed to know?", Ruby asked me. Crap I forgot she has super hearing as well.
"That's something that your Mom should tell you. It's nothing bad though, that's all I'm going to say.", I said to her with a smile on my face as she smiled back at me.
"Maybe we're getting a puppy. I've always wanted one but Mommy never let me have one. Mama and I were talking about getting one soon, maybe she talked to Mom about it.", Ruby said to me with a smile on her face.
"It's not a puppy but something similar.", I said to her with a chuckle to my voice as she looked so confused at my statement.
"Ugh just tell me Aunt Kara.", Ruby said to me with a dramatic sigh.
"I can't, I promised your Mom I wouldn't tell anyone.", I said to her with a pout on my face really wanting to tell her what's going on.
"Oh come on you can't be afraid of Mom you are so much stronger then her. Just tell me!", Ruby said in desperation.
"Oh no I am afraid of your Mom, you didn't see how angry she was when I told her I was Supergirl. I don't ever want to get on your Mother's bad side ever again. It's even scarier then Alex when she's mad, or even Eliza. I honestly thought she was going to kill me.", I said to her with a chuckle at the last part as Ruby laughed as well.
"I haven't been on the receiving end of that before but I have seen Mom get angry. Though Mama is usually the scary one when she's mad. When I was going through my rebellious stage I legit thought Mama was going to kill me. She did threaten to shoot me with an alien gun once. Mom tried not to laugh at that, it was kind of funny.", Ruby said to me with a laugh to her voice.
"Oh my god she's tried that with me too. I got her so pissed one-day that she threatened to shoot me with one of her favorite alien guns. Even though she knew it wouldn't do anything to me she still threatened to do it. It kind of made me laugh but then I realized she was being serious so I shut up.", I said to Ruby as the two of us started to laugh again. As our laughter died down Alex's monitors started to beep uncontrollably and Alex started to seize again. "Ruby go get Doctor Hamilton.", I said to Ruby as I put Alex on her side and held her there. "You better fight this a little longer you hear me. We will find a cure I promise.", I said to Alex as I held her there as Doctor Hamilton, Lena, Ruby and my mom all ran into the room.
"When did this start?", Doctor Hamilton asked as she was getting something for Alex's seizures.
"Not even a minute ago. As soon as she started to shake I told Ruby to get you guys and I immediately put her on her side.", I said to Doctor Hamilton.
"Her fever spiked again. Eliza can you grab more cooling blankets please? We need to keep her head cool as well we don't want her brain to suffer because of the seizures.
"She can't take much more of this.", Lena said to all of us with tears in her eyes.
"She has about 6 hours before this starts to get critical. We have time to help her Lena I promise we'll figure something out.", Doctor Hamilton said to Lena then to all of us.
"We don't have 6 hours. We have 4 hours until her organs start to get affected and then we have 2 hours until her brain shuts off. So in reality we only have three hours to save my wife before she's literally dead.", Lena said as she stormed out of the room.
"I'll go talk to her.", I said as Alex stopped seizing and I put her back on her back as I headed out to where Lena was.
"I can't do this Kara. I can't watch my wife die while we sit here and try to come up with a cure when my mother is sitting in a cell and has it in her head. Isn't there something J'onn can do to read her mind?", Lena said then asked me.
"He's trying your mother is blocking him some how. Winn is trying to come up with something to help him read Lillian's mind. But it's going to take some time.", I said to Lena.
"We don't have time Kara. I could loose my wife in three hours. Ruby can loose another mother in three hours.", Lena said in an angry voice. I know she's not really angry with me she's just upset over the whole situation.
"I can't raise Ruby and a baby on my own. Well I can but I don't want too, I want to have Alex by my side. I want to have more kids with her and I want to watch our kids grow up and get married and have kids of their own. I never knew I wanted that before, I never thought anyone would want a family with a Luthor. But then Alex and I started to get closer and I could see that she wanted those things with me not because I'm a Luthor but because of whom I am as a person. She didn't fall in love with me because of my last name she fell in love with me because I wasn't defined by my last name. I wanted to be come a Danvers when we got married I wanted to erase my last name I didn't want our kids to be known for having a mother with the last name Luthor. But Alex, she made me realize that my name made me who I am today. She made me realize that my last name made me stronger and it's only going to make our kids stronger; because Luthor-Danvers' are stronger together. She makes me a better person Kara, I don't know how to do that without her nor do I want to try and figure it out without her. I love my life with her.", Lena said to me which got us to both tear she's never really been this open with me before. I can truly see that she loves my sister with her whole self and it's a great thing to see.
"You won't have to worry about doing anything without her. We will get her back; she will get to do all those things with you. You know I will go to the ends of the Earth for my sister if I have to beat your mother so she tells us the cure then that's what I'll do. I project my family and that's exactly what I'm going to do.", I said to Lena as I side hugged her and kissed her temple.
"I just hope we can save her.", Lena said with tears in her eyes as Winn was running towards us.
"J'onn got your mother to talk, I don't know how I didn't ask. But here's the cure go make it.", he said to Lena as he handed her a piece of paper as she ran into Alex's room to get my mother and Doctor Hamilton.
"Where's my daughter Winn?", I asked him knowing that he was looking after Addison for me.
"She's with Jimmy, he just put her down in J'onn's office.", Winn said as Doctor Hamilton, Lena, and Eliza walked out of Alex's room and headed to the lab to start making the cure.
"Thank you. Are you sure this is the right cure? And that it's going to work?", I asked him with concern on my face.
"It is trust me, you don't want to know what J'onn had to do to get that. But it's legit I wouldn't have brought it to you if it wasn't.", Winn said as we headed back into Alex's room where Ruby was sitting next to Alex's bed.
"You think it's going to work?", Ruby asked us with hope in her voice and eyes.
"I hope so. Though Uncle Winn wouldn't have give it to your mother if he didn't think it wouldn't work.", I said to Ruby with a smile on my face.
