After the homecoming dance, Kara and Sara began dating and now Christmas, which was also Sara's birthday, since it was technically the day she'd arrived on Earth, was almost here and Kara was trying to figure out what to get her, since it was their first Christmas as a couple and she wanted it to be special. Then it came to her. Sara still had questions that Kara couldn't answer. Questions about her family back on Krypton. Sara didn't know anything about her family, since she'd been sent off Krypton when she was the same age Kal-El when he'd left. But Kara knew where she could get Sara all the answers she needed. So after speaking with Clark, who'd agreed with her after learning about Sara, Kara put her plan in action. The first thing she needed was a strand of Sara's DNA.

Which she'd gotten via Laurel, who'd pulled some of Sara's hair out of her hair brush.

Now Kara was up at her cousin's Fortress of Solitude in the Arctic.

"Kelex." Kara called out as the helper bot approached.

"How can I assist you lady Kara?" Kelex asked.

"I need you to run this DNA sample against your database of the Kryptonian birth codex." Kara said as she handed the hair to Kelex.

"Right away Lady Kara." Kelex said as he scanned the hair strand.

After a few moments, he beeped in confirmation.

"Match found." Kelex said.

"Don't tell me, but upload the results of the scan to a data crystal, along with all the data there is in the fortress's archives on the house the DNA belongs to." Kara said.

"As you wish Lady Kara." Kelex said as he moved over to the console and worked to upload all the information Kara had requested before handing her the crystal.

"Thank you Kelex." Kara said as she flew out.


It was Christmas day and as much as Sara loved her family's usual morning celebration, she was really looking forward to spending her birthday with Kara, since it was their first Christmas together and while Kara had insisted that Sara didn't need to get her anything since she shouldn't have to give gifts on her birthday, Sara had gotten her something anyways and for the first time, she wasn't angry about that.

Anyways, Sara met up with Kara at her house to exchange gifts.

"Happy birthday Sara." Eliza said.

"Thanks. Where's Kara?" Sara asked.

"In her room." Eliza said and Sara nodded as she headed upstairs to find Kara waiting for her.

"Hey, happy birthday." Kara said.

"Merry Christmas." Sara said as she handed Kara her gift.

"You shouldn't have." Kara said.

"I wanted to." Sara said as Kara opened the package to find a jewelry box.

"What is this?" Kara asked.

"Open it." Sara said and Kara did to reveal to a beautiful heart-shaped locket that was engraved with the symbol of the house of El and a K and an S it. Kara opened it to reveal a picture of her in one side and a picture of Sara in the other.

"It's beautiful." Kara said as she closed it and Sara smiled as she took the locket and placed it around Kara's neck and after pulling her hair out, she smiled at how good she looked with it on.

"Ok, now open my present." Kara said as she handed it to Sara, who opened it.

"What is this?" Sara asked.

"It's a kryptonian data crystal. Remember how I told you my cousin has a kryptonian fortress up in the Arctic?" Kara asked and Sara nodded.

"Well, it's archives contain every bit of information there is on Krypton, including it's birth registry. Laurel got me a strand of your hair, don't ask, but I ran it through the DNA database and well, I found the answer to your questions." Kara said.

"What answers?" Sara asked, not daring to hope.

"Your family. Everything there is to know about your lineage." Kara told her.

"You did not." Sara said.

"So, you ready to find out who your parents were?" Kara asked.

"Yeah, I guess." Sara said, though suddenly, she wasn't so sure.

"You okay?" Kara asked.

"Yeah, I'm just worried, what if I don't like what I find?" Sara asked.

"Look Sara, you don't have to use this, it's your call, but if it were me, I'd at least like to know my family was." Kara said.

"You haven't looked at it already have you?" Sara asked.

"No, it didn't seem right to do that without you." Kara said and Sara nodded.

"Promise me you'll be there no matter what I find out?" Sara asked.

"I promise." Kara said and Sara finally let her show her how to activate the data crystal.

"Here it is. First, we have your real name, which as it turns out, is also Sara, so that's convenient." Kara said and Sara nodded.

"What about my last name?" Sara asked.

"It looks like your name is Sara Ra-Van. Your father was a highly decorated general of the Kryptonian military guild, Ran Van and your mother, Shara Ra-Van was a member of the science guild, a few levels below my father and uncle." Kara said.

"Is there a picture of them?" Sara asked, relieved that her parents hadn't been criminals, and Kara nodded as she moved down to show a photo of Sara's parents. Her father had dark hair and brown eyes and he looked tall and proud. Sara's mother on the other hand looked like an older version of her, right down to the blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Thank you Kara." Sara said, tears coming to her eyes as she saw an image of her parents for the first time.

"Happy birthday Sara." Kara said as Sara shut off the crystal.

"What was that for?" Kara asked.

"Because I don't need an image of my parents watching me do this." Sara said as she kissed Kara, who was shocked for a minute before she started kissing Sara back as they shared their first real kiss.
