This is war.

This.

Is.

War.

Words that echoed in Supergirl's ears as she soared through the sky. The world stopped.

Everything stopped.

The sky was grey, and rain was pelting Kara. She swallowed the lump in her throat and closed her eyes briefly for a moment. Visions of the events that lead to now. Alex had started a cataclysmic event, war. It not only waged on CADMAS and the DEO, it had spread further than that. Human and alien casualties alike. How they could all come back from this, no one knew.

It had been a month before Alex made the declaration, and there was no taking it back. It was never meant to go this far, but Alex was fueled with anger, and revenge was the only way she thought she could get through the grief of losing Maggie.

Supergirl landed on the pavement, well, what was left of it. All around her, there were smoldering fires, burned out cars and buildings cracked and torn, threatening to fall. Where were the people?

Gone.

As Kara looked around, everything around her may as well have been an echo of Krypton on it's very last day. As Kara walked through the rubble, she found it hard to keep herself together. All the radio com's were dead.

Silence.

Taking a deep breath, Supergirl carried on trudging through the concrete. The shattered concrete that may as well be tiny pebbles. Tears stung her eyes as she carried on making her way through a street, "How could it have come to this?" She asked herself. She looked up, and saw the huge 'L' on the building for L-Corp had fell and was in a 90 degree angle. Supergirl flew up, and put it in the right position. As she stared at the giant 'L', she felt like there was a huge piece of herself missing, "I'm sorry Lena." She said out loud. She then turned and once again looked at the billowing smoke coming from the buildings below her.

"Our darkest day has already happened." J'onn announced to everyone in the DEO. Winn sat in complete silence. He now had stubble on his face, he had lost hope in the human race. He was solemn, and had become withdrawn since the destruction that occurred only four weeks ago. J'onn was less authoritive, and could hardly look at Alex. He was ashamed, he watched her destroy her own world and he was full of sorrow and mourned this planet like his own. He never thought he'd see the human race practically end itself and what made it worse was that it was because Alex, someone who J'onn considered family, took it upon herself to decide the fate of the human race.

Alex walked over to Winn, "Status on-"

"The same as yesterday, the day before and the day before that. There is nothing Alex. Lillian Luthor is still out there, but what is the point when there is nothing left to fight?" Winn replied. J'onn briefly looked over, "He's right...We have no cause."

"But maybe if we-" Alex started.

"The human race, and aliens have gone underground. Supergirl is alive, and Maggie is not. Alex, I would have stopped you-"

"Then why didn't you J'onn?"

"Because you wouldn't. I had to protect you and Kara."

"And we have single handedly destroyed the human race. Not in a matter of centuries, days." Winn replied, "Maggie tried warning us, now look where we are. There is nothing."

"I'm closing the DEO down. We have no longer got a cause." J'onn said to them, before looking at Winn, "Mr Schott, close everything down."

Winn looked up at Alex, and she was staring at J'onn. He walked off, and she stood frozen. What have I done? Alex thought to herself.

Kara walked down the sub-way line and all she could hear was dripping water. The silence terrified her. No human or alien in sight. She hit the wall in anger, "How could you do this Alex?" She gasped, breaking down. She hit the wall a few more times, before falling to her knees, sobbing. She stared at the deserted rail line in front of her, and then to the earth that was next to it. She saw a faint glow beneath it. She quickly got up and knelt down to it, before beginning to dig. Once she dug far enough, she had a huge smile on her face when she looked at the shiny object and the human inside it. She called Alex, "Thank Rao this line still works. Alex, I've found something."

"J'onn." Alex said to him, "Kara has found something."

"What is it?" He asked, and Kara heard him through the phone.

"I've found the salvation of this planet." Kara laughed in relief and joy,

A:N: Thank you once again, I am thoroughly enjoying writing this. I wonder what Kara has found? :) You will all find out pretty soon I expect.

Thank you :)
