Back at the DEO

"How is she?" Alex asked coming back to her sister's side.

"A little bit better after the meds had started working. She might even wake up."

"She doesn't look better." The Agent responded not taking her eyes off of her sister and stroking her hair.

Kara was struggling with her breathing. She was pale and there was fresh blood covering the bandage on the wound.

"I know but this is all we can do for her right now." Hamilton sadly informed her and gave her some space to be with her sister.

Sitting in a chair next to Kara, she took her hand and said. "Why do you always have to be so selfless. You should've told me something was wrong. I don't care if somebody messes with me but they will learn not to mess with my little sister." The Agent soothed before Kara winced in pain as she started to wake up.

"Kara? Hey, I'm here I'm here. What hurts?" she asked leaning over Kara's face.

"Alex? What happened?" She asked her eyes barely open, but as she remembered the previous phone call she asked out of the blue.

"Where is Kal? Is he okay?"

"I-I don't know. I think so. Why would you ask that?

"I have to go. He's in danger." She said as she started to pull out her IV.

Alex put her hands on Kara's shoulders to stop her movements.

"Kara stop. You are sick. You're not going anywhere."

"You don't get it. He has Kryptonite. He will kill him if I don't do as he says!" Kara tried to explain managing to pull her IV out of her hand.

"What's going on?" J'onn asked seeing Kara trying to escape.

"Hold her down!" Alex ordered before she grabbed the sedative from the cabinet and filled the syringe with it.

"Kar, I promise you we'll check on your cousin and keep him safe but if you don't calm down I will have to put you to sleep." Alex warned holding the needle.

"No! He will hurt you too. I can't let that happen." She argued still fighting to get out.

"Stop. You're hurting yourself!" Alex yelled after she saw Kara's injury bleeding profusely.

Seeing there was no way to reason with her sister Alex injected Kara in her stomach and whispered to her.

"You have to think about yourself too." She said and turned to J'onn before asking "Can you check on Superman?"


"Alex! What's happened?" Eliza asked entering the room.

"It's a long story. Kara is sick. She's been infected with some kind of virus created specifically to target aliens. It's spreading really fast. Too fast." Alex explained before her mother hugged her.

"I promise I will get to the person who has the antidote. We've searched Kara's phone after we had found out about the person apparently stalking her. There was some unknown number that has been contacting her for some time now. We think that person may be responsible for all of this. Winn is trying to track him down but it's taking longer than we'd like."

"What if you are too late? We can try to work on the antidote ourselves. Look at her, she is so fragile. What if her condition deteriorates ?" Eliza suggested searching for any solution.

"There is no time. It would take days and she doesn't have that long. I should have known something wasn't right. I let her down, Mom. I haven't even realised there is some freak out there stalking her. I swear when I find him I will kill him."

"Honey I know you're angry, that you can't stand seeing your sister suffering like that but you have to remember that Kara wouldn't want to be the reason for you to take somebody's life." Eliza soothed.

"I will do what I have to to save her." Alex said resolutely.

"You know how protective she is. She was afraid that he would come after us, so she decided to handle it by herself."

After a moment of silence Alex admitted. "She went to Cadmus the other day. She helped dad escape. That's where she got shot."

Eliza stared at her for a long minute before asking "Alone? How could she do something like that?"

"That's partly my fault." Alex admitted almost crying. "When we rescued dad for the first time Kara'd questioned his loyalty. That's when I lashed out at her. I practically told her she wasn't part of the family."

"She knows you say things you don't mean when you're mad." Eliza tried to comfort her.

"What is it Winn?" The Agent asked when Winn peeked into the room.

"I've managed to track the signal."

"And?" Alex asked impatiently.

"It's coming from Kara's apartment."
