Karamel a Kryptonian and a Daxamite

Chapter 10 BetrayalKaraI didn't wait for Winn to say anything. I just dropped my phone on the couch as the feeling dread just hit me. I speed into the bedroom to change. I didn't even think to tell Alex what was happening I didn't even know what time it was. I flew out of my apartment and landed on the balcony.

"What happened?" I asked I knew there was something wrong when Winn stood waiting for me.

"Mon El's parent have took him," Winn told me in a scared voice.

"And you stood there and let them?!" I shouted.

"There was nothing we could do Kara. His mother and father turned up with ten Honor Guards armed with guns. They tore right though us," J'onn explained. "They were using energy weapons that burned a hole through one of our people."

"Where did they go?" I asked the question.

"We've tracked them to a facility at the edge of the city. It's a suspected Cadmus facility," Winn informed them.

"Agent Schott please get Agent Danvers to come to the DEO I think we need to speak to Jeremiah," J'onn said to Winn.

"It's ok I'm here I followed after Kara left. What happened"? Alex said appearing in the DEO.

"It doesn't matter we need to speak Jeremiah," I said speeding off leaving Alex confused.

"I really wish she would stop doing that she doesn't realize not every one can walk as fast she can," Alex huffed following behind me. We got to the medical bay and saw Jeremiah still lying on his bed.

"What do you know about Cadmus?" I said.

"Straight to the point Kara," Jeremiah said.

"Why did Cadmus release you all of sudden?" I questioned.

"It was a contingency plan in case the Daxamites betrayed Cadmus. They weren't going to take any chances with them," Jeremiah explained.

"So what's Cadmus' plan?" I asked further.

"There's a backup facility that Cadmus built at the outskirts of the city to fall back to if they needed too," he continued. "I'm sorry Kara, Alex, but I was only trying to protect you."

"…Take us there," I said clearly.

We headed back into the main entrance. J'onn is waiting for us to return.

"Me and Winn will be staying back keeping in radio contact. First sign of trouble I will be there," J'onn told us.

"I will fly out and scout the area then follow the car," I told not even waiting for an answer.

I left the DEO and flew around expecting to see a Daxamite ship flying around. I didn't see anything so I flew down so I could see Alex and Jeremiah's car.

We soon arrived outside of a small warehouse. I flew down as Alex and Jeremiah got out the car. The warehouse looked too small to hold much.

"Are you sure this is the right place?" I asked.

"Yes I'm positive," Jeremiah said.

We headed towards the building and I tried the door it looked. I tried to use my x-ray vision but something seemed to block me from seeing through. I laser blasted the door and the door melted. We walked in to see nothing but a dark shadow standing in the middle of the room.

"It's about time what took you?" said a voice. I knew that voice it was Lillian Luthor.

"Don't worry I'm on your side when the Daxamites invaded Cadmus. I trained your father as a spy he became my cover if they were to betrayed us. As the saying goes 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend,' well if the Daxamites have their way then we're both going to die unless we help each other." Lillian spoke

"How do we know you aren't going to betray us like the Daxamites did to you?" Alex asked. "You made my father a weapon."

"I trust her," Jeremiah spoke up.

"We're listening…talk " I said flatly.

"I have a plan to get Mon El back," Lillian explained. "Every Cadmus facility has a failsafe put in place in case it is ever overrun by hostile forces. However it takes time to implement and whenever you've attacked one of our facilities we haven't been able to deploy it. The Daxamites did the same however I'm sure we can trigger the failsafe and neutralize the Daxamite threat before they realize what's happening."

"What failsafe?" Alex questioned further.

"It's a gas," Jeremiah was the one who answered. "It's not lethal and will only knock out those who inhale it."

"The plan is to knock out the Daxamites before they can react and then send them back through the Transmat-Portal at the facility," Lillian finished. "We have an ally in the Daxamite forces, an Honour Guard that once served as Mon El's manservant back on their planet."

"How did you manage to get a Daxamite on your side?" I asked.

"It wasn't that difficult all he wanted to do was protect Mon El," Lillian told us.

"How do you know he's not betraying you as well?" I asked.

"You ask to many questions Kryptonian," Lillian said.

"I want a lot of answers," I responded with a glare.

"I can understand that," she nodded. "However you'll find no such answers here. As for our Daxamite spy, let's just say we've taken precautions for if he ever decides to turn on us."

Precautions?

"What precautions?" I asked not liking the implications.

"Just a small device imbedded in his back," Lillian replied as if she was talking about the weather and not a person's life. "If activated it will release a dose of liquid lead into his bloodstream, effectively killing him."

"You…" I trailed off unable to find the words. She was a monster, there was no other way to describe her.

"Curse me all you want but the situation will not change," she spoke clearly. "Now let me ask you this, what will you do?"

I can't even describe how angry I was at her, not now and not ever. I hated her for what she's done and what she's prepared to do. And she calls what she does 'saving the world.' I refuse to believe that manipulating and killing people is the answer to saving the world.

"…We'll help each other," I finally agreed. "For now."

Damn it I hate her so much that its burning me up inside to not just go over there and put my hand through her chest. Thank Rao that there was no Red Kryptionite nearby otherwise I would have already done that. In the end though I was able to reign myself in and agree, if only to save Mon El. After he was rescued and the Daxamites defeated then we could go back to being enemies.

"We will head back to the DEO to inform them of what's going to happen. Will you get some of your people to come as we will need back up," I said.

We left the building Alex and Jeremiah took Lillian in the car Lillian didn't look pleased to have to travel with them. I flew back. Buy the time we get there there's a crowd of Cadmus people including Hank Henshaw.

"Do you mind tell us what is going on?" J'onn asked as I landed.

"We are working with Cadmus to get Mon El back," I told him I could tell he didn't think it was a good idea.

"And you thing that's a wise Idea?" J'onn asked me.

"They have a way to get us into where the Daxamite's are," I told him.

"If you think you an trust them you have my back up," J'onn said I could tell he still didn't look convinced.

"I don't trust them it just the only way we can get Mon El back," I told J'onn.

Alex, Jeremiah and Lillian entered the DEO followed by what looks like a Daxamite royal guard.

"So I gather you're the reason why Mon El doesn't want to leave Earth a pretty girl like you," the guard said when they reached us I could tell he didn't mean in a nasty way as he smiled as he said.

"No he just wants to be a hero he doesn't want to be the prince," I said.

"Its alright I just want him to be happy I never liked working for his parents back on Daxam. I never served his parents they didn't think I was good enough to protect them so I served Mon El who treated me more like a friend. I was the one that put him in that pod that day because I knew he didn't want to be that spoilt prince that his parents made him," the guard told me.

"I'm glad Mon El had someone to protect him on Daxam," I said.

"You don't have worry I won't betray you like my people did," the guard add.
