Once back at the DEO the two Kryptonians are placed on sun beds, the eclipse has ended and Alex has surgery on her torn ligaments of her knee and broken arm with seperated shoulder.
J'onn is set onto his own bed, "Kara Queen are you awake?" He asks softly while Dr. Hamilton sets to work on him while Dr. Luthor tends to both ladies.
Kara Queen woke up, Her heat vision hitting the ceiling of the DEO as her last action was attempting to free herself of the chains.
She screams in pain and is disoriented as some plaster rains down on the attending medical staff. Kara tries to jump off but Oliver beats her to it, "Easy there sweetie, you're safe, two World Killers are dead!" He says happily.
Her eyes are still glowing and she is shaking.
He looks down at her concerned, "You really should stop taking off like that," he strokes her hair back. "Everyone here cares about you and with you taking off, you're getting hurt."
She holds up her hands and sees no shackles. She looks around and sees she is in the DEO again. She puts her arm over her eyes and starts to sob.
Oliver rubs her shoulder. "Hey it's okay...You're going to be okay sweetie."
Supergirl looks at Alex in her own bed, "I'm sorry I couldn't help you..." she says feeling drained. She shakes her head at Dr. Luthor, "Alex first... I'll be fine, please."
"Dr Hamilton is taking care of Alex. I have you and your twin." She signaled for her medical team to pull the curtains and change out Kara.
After getting her out of her sweaty and damaged suit, she examined her in a fresh medical gown. "You will heal with the bed, but you need rest." She opened the gown to tape her ribs. "I am setting them so they will mend properly." She finished taping them, realizing Kara could feel everything. "You don't have your powers right now, so we need to make sure when they come back you will heal right." She put a sheet over the hurt Kryptonian. "Rest, try to sleep. That is the best thing for you right now." She waited for Kara to nod, then went over to her twin.
She walked over to the other Kara. "What happened? Did you lose control of your heat vision?"
"No I was attempting to break free of the chains in the cave. When I woke up I thought I was still there and was working on the chains again." Kara told her embarrassed.
She signalled to her team and a curtain was pulled around her as she too was being changed out of a very dirty ripped DEO uniform. Oliver was allowed to stay as he was her husband. After changing her out Dr. Luthor proceeded to examine her. "Your ribs are not set properly. And they have been re-broken." Kara hissed from the pain.
"I am aware." She bit out. The doctor looked at her closely.
"Some of this isn't going to re-heal properly. Kara I need to do surgery right now before they mend completely wrong."
She looks at Oliver. "Just stop the pain please!" She cried out unable to bear it anymore. Lillian set up red sun emitters to soften her skin so she could perform the necessary surgery.
She used a kryptonite needle to start an IV and get the necessary pain killers into her. She ordered the surgical center to be prepped. Number one surgical center was already in use for Alex. Kara was going into the second one.
"I'm sorry Oliver, you will have to wait for her in the observation room." She is wheeled into surgery.
Oliver checked on the other Kara. He sees her eyes are closed and she is resting on the sun bed with a sheet over her and her head nestled in a pillow.
"I'm sorry I didn't come down sooner to help, they were afraid of sending me because I was still hurt," Oliver watches her.
"It's okay, you were hurt and needed to heal." She told him fiddling with a tie on her gown by her side.
"Thank you for helping. Your arrows helped a lot," She told him honestly. "I just kept getting beat down. Rao I cannot take much more of this!" She looked at him. "How is my twin?" She asked concerned, "she got taken out quickly."
"It's not okay, I should have gotten there sooner," Oliver smiles a little, "That was Winn with the arrows... he's pretty brilliant. I wish you could sit out the next fight... you and Alex," he comments and runs his hand over his face. "Yeah she's in surgery now."
"Surgery?" She asked alarmed. "What happened?"
He takes a seat, "Her ribs broke more and have to be reset or they won't mend properly," he places his hands onto his knees. Oliver moves to stand up, "I should let you rest, sorry."
"No it's okay, I wanted to know. Thank you and Alex? She is in surgery too? Do you know what happened to her?" She asked worriedly.
He nods, looking very solemn, "Yeah she got tossed around back and forth..." He cringed. "Broken arm... and I don't want to go into detail."
"I want to know! Don't keep anything from me Oliver!" She gets a little cross with him.
He holds up his hands, "Okay her knee was wrenched as well and that's all I know. I just didn't want you to worry more than you are and add stress your plate," he says and grabs the back of his head in frustration. "If I had jumped down sooner her injuries would have been not as bad," he growls to himself.
"You can't blame yourself for our misfortunes. It took a World Killer to kill one. We are down to one." She told him tiredly. "We will get through this." She sighed starting to nod off.
Oliver walks over to her and smiles, he can't get over the fact that she's a twin to his wife. But even with this, there is something different about her and figures it has to do with her personality. He hasn't spent much time with her but from what he's seen, "You are so selfless... I haven't seen someone like you in so long. I hope to continue working alongside you," he gives her shoulder a light squeeze before leaving her to go into the observation room.
Winn is typing away on his computer and grins as he looks at the time. Picking up his phone he dials Lena, he knows how hard she's been working, the iffy rift between her and Kara and honestly what Kara said when she last returned struck him. About her finally getting to be Kara Danvers and he realized no one has had a break since the third world killer came out. He waits for Lena to pick up and walks to the locker room since his shift is almost over. Humming away with excitement over his new plans.
"Hello?"
"Hello my sexy, sultry, brilliant lady!" He says with a kick to his step as he reaches his locker.
"Hey Winslow, what's up?" She looked up from her work.
"I have made us dinner plans! And don't say you can't do it because a comment Kara made at the start of the Eclipse had me thinking... we've all been working really hard for weeks. It's time for us to have some US time!" He opens his locker and drums his free hand fingers on his thigh to a beat in his head.
"Well now that Reign is not in my lab I have some time. What do you have in mind?"
"I'm taking us to the Keg, right now it's their lobster special with steaks and-"
He hears a strange but familiar sound coming from behind his set of lockers. "What's going on in here...?" He trails off to see men coming through in a different uniform and sees General Schott step through. "Whoa! You are not allowed to be here!" He lowers the phone.
General Schott motions for the people to proceed until Winn steps in front. "Move aside... Winn, I'm here for Kara Queen," he states simply and out of annoyance.
Giving him a confused look, "Uhhh you do realize she's been here for over a month... right? You just show up now?" He says with hand gestures forgetting that Lena can hear all that is going on.
General Schott steps up to Winn and gets into his face when the men part but don't leave the room. "Meaning? It took me some time to get our people to get another machine set up to come here. Everything takes time, Now tell me where she is," he says in his voice of authority. "If you do not, we will be forced to take matters into our own hands with the individual from our own Earth."
Trying to puff out his own chest but winding up taking a couple of steps back and looking nervous. None of the girls are in any condition to fight, "You know what?" His voice a little high, he clears his throat. "No," he says a little more firmly. "You're not-"
General Schott punches him in the left cheek causing Winn to grunt and to stagger back before holding up his hands. "If we do not find Kara Queen, then we'll take your Kara until ours returns to our Earth to pay for her crimes! Go and search!" General Schott commands.
Winn holds his arms out to block them from leaving, "No!" His voice shaking out of being terrified and angry. "you can't just go bursting into another Earth and take someone!" He looks around at the people there, "I bet I know why you took so long and it wasn't technical difficulties!"
General Schott walks up to him again, rolling up his sleeves, "give me one good reason to not beat up my own twin who looks to be a sniveling weasel!"
Standing his ground, he fights to not shake at what he knows will happen if he fails. "They didn't want to give you access to our world did they?" He says as defiantly as he can muster.
The men glance at their general but he doesn't flinch. "It's you who won't let it go... isn't it? Someone escaped punishment... left from your grasp and while everyone else is moving on you won't let go of the past so your going out of your way to get it done!" His body is shaking as he steps closer to the General.
"You threatened... you pointed a gun!" Raising his hands on the air, "I don't know! But you are the only one not letting go of the past and if you keep going on this path," he points to the door behind him. "And go after our Kara, who is our Earths protector!" He sees a blink, "That's right! She is our hero, and coming after her is the wrong thing and you know it!" He steps into his twin's face now.
"She is here... she isn't out shopping... she isn't gardening or baby sitting or anything that involves her mingling with those she hurt! She can't hurt them anymore so leave her alone!" He says breathing heavily and still shaking.
General Schott watches his twin's eyes, he swallows and motions to the men while holding up the new device and turning it on. "You're not a wimp after all," he comments, "you're right..." he says out of anger, but steps back as the men file out. Turning he walks back through and they're all gone.
Lifting his phone he sees he's still on the line with Lena, "You still there?" He asks quietly.
"What? What happened?" She asked shaken after hearing all that.
"I just stopped a kidnapping... and my twin is an ass with a good right hook... now I need an ice pack!" Winn touches his cheek, "Oww..."
"How? You know what? I am heading over there now." She hangs up.
Within fifteen minutes Winn gets a call from the DEO command center that Lena is there for him. Winn goes to the command area with an frozen jelly pack to his cheek, "I have a feeling dinner is off," he mumbles.
"What happened?" Lena asked concerned.
Winn pulls the ice away, "General Schott wanted their Kara and threatened to take ours so... I poked holes in his story and sent him back."
"Is he coming back?" Lena asked concerned.
Winn puts the ice pack back on, "I doubt it, if you want to see the footage I can pull it up on the computer," he offers. "I'm just glad our downed Kryptonians didn't see my twin."
"He hit you?" She asked putting a hand to his face.
"Yup, left cheek... it's already swelling," he watches her eyes.
"So did I hear right? You shamed him into leaving?"
He nods, "yeah... fought him with words like a Danvers."
"How is everyone?"
He frowns, "Alex and Queen had to have surgery, Kara taped up and J'onn... well they'll all be okay. Just need lots of rest," he pulls the pack away to stretch his cheek and see how it feels. "I take it a bruise isn't sexy."
"Are you sure he is not coming back? You need to warn someone."
"Already done," he taps on the keyboard and shows her the footage.
She looks at it.
"I set up the system to scan for portals in the future and an alarm will sound, we're covered," he watches her reaction to the footage.
"Okay just let someone know. They need to know about the threat."
"I told the techs, and when the others are up they'll be informed."
"Okay, do you still want food? Or do you want to order in?" Lena asked.
Winn glances at the time, "We could still eat out if you're not bothered by this mug," he points his thumb at himself.
"No worries. Why should I be bothered? You chased your twin off." She laughed.
"This is true, but just making sure," he reaches up to touch her face. "As I've heard... in a video game... a guy is meant to compliment the woman."
"Ah you're sweet Winslow." She walked with him as they headed out of the DEO.
The legion ship and Imra and Brainy are getting ready to leave.
After dinner, of which Winn gets some looks from people but he just treated them like any other look for him being a nerd. He offered to walk Lena home, with Reign being out and about he doesn't trust her to make a move on the woman who held the host captive for weeks.
Approaching her building, he smiles at her, "I had a really nice night. It was nice to get out with you for a change," he takes her hand gently. "I don't want to be too forward, but I really enjoy spending time with you," he smiles as he sees the city lights reflected in her eyes.
He opens his mouth to say something more when his phone gives off an alarm. Pulling it out of his pocket, "well that's not my World Killer alarm it's..." his eyes go wide, "my app! I mean my program!" He grins at her excitedly. "I have a program set up to alert me when something Kryptonian pops up, you know as like a warning from that old cult group," he taps away. "And this is a rock! But they're classifying it as an alien rock found in a box... look at those markings! It's... an eBay listing!" He nearly jumps out of his shoes in excitement. "Let's go to your lab and look into this further!"
"Okay!" She exclaimed just as excited.
They hurry into her building and into her personal lab where he pulls up the listing on a much larger screen. "It's here in National City... those are Kryptonian markings! And... is it just me or do they also look like World Killer on them?" He looks at her concerned suddenly.
"Look! It's a buy in now. Get it."
Winn sees the listing is more than he makes in a year.
She grabs the phone changes the user ID to hers and buys it.
"We have it. I will tell them I want to meet to pick it up." She contacts the seller.
"You aren't going alone!" He warns her, not with something so potentially dangerous.
"Okay you want to bring Supergirl? She might be interested in this."
He shakes his head and then nods and gets flustered. "She's hurt still. Let's ask Oliver to cover us. What if it's nothing? But then if it's something Kara will get upset for me not telling her... but I could just bum her out... frig... yes we'll call him but only as back-up."
Lena agreed to meet, Winn is with her, and Oliver is in the wings watching. They met in a public place and the guy is right where he said he would be.
"So I had no idea it would be the famous Lena Luthor picking up my rock." The guy told her.
She smirked. "$30,000 right?"
"Yes all in cash."
"Before I hand over more money than you make in a year. Tell me where you got this rock."
He handed it over for her to examine. It was a shard but definitely had a Kryptonian signature on
it according to Winn's readings. "Friend was a stupid alien cult member. He took a piece off a bigger rock."
She looked at Winn sharply. "Where is the rest of the rock?"
"It got melted down in a failed experiment."
"Do you know what this experiment was?" She asked now curious.
"Only something about making a World Killer... whatever that is."
"Okay," she hands over the cash and waits for him to count it quickly.
"It's all there. This is a legitimate business deal."
She handed Winn the shard piece. Once both parties were satisfied they went their separate ways without incident. He immediately starts examining it. "We need to show this to our resident Kryptonian." They met back up with Oliver and headed back to the DEO.
What did you think of the Winn vs Winn? And in general of everything that took place? Please review! We love hearing from our readers! ^_^
