When Kara Queen awoke, she would notice she is chained to her bed. General Schott is sitting in the corner of her room, reading, he'd been sitting there all night reading and watching over Kara Queen. Now and then he'd ask for a cup of espresso or something to keep him going through the night.
She looked around her room and spotted the General. "Why are you still here?" She bit out angrily.
"Believe it or not, I'm protecting you," he looks up from his book and flips the page. "I won't let anyone harm you before your sentencing while you're in this state," he continues reading.
"When are you sentencing me? I thought you already had my trial when I escaped last time!" She shook her head angrily. The red sun emitters completely making her human. She knew she would be helpless against a firing squad.
"Taking away my power is not helping! All you're doing is setting me up to be slaughtered" She taunted angrily.
He looks at his watch, "in a couple of hours... and missed your trial because... oh! You weren't here for it," he closes up his book onto his index finger. "I sent agents to that DEO place to do recon on what my twin had said. Used the computers and learned he was right... imagine my surprise when I find out that the exact same face has done so much good on her planet that they gave her a statue for saving them from being taken over!"
"Why don't you just shoot me in the head now and get it over with!" She growled. "Did you ever think I could change as Well? I have! I came back because I gave up!" She could feel a strange sensation in her. She felt human, yet she still had the Sorceress powers.
"Are you going to let me get up to use the facilities? I assume you have a wash room somewhere? I drank allot of wine!"
She thought about everything, how the powers had been fueling her temper. She had to apologize to Oliver!
He stands up and walks over to her, "if I release you... your more than likely going to snap my neck. However... because of how much you had to drink, I will escort you to the bathroom," he folds his arms over his chest. "You say you've changed?" He walks closer to her, "prove it," General Schott pulls the keys out but doesn't use them yet as he watches her closely.
"How?" She growled.
Tilting his head to the side, "for starters, calm down," he unlocks her from the bed post.
"See how calm you would be chained like an animal!" She growled angrily.
He sighs, "why do I get the feeling that even though you came willingly... that if I took down the defences you'd take off? I do not wish to treat anyone like an animal... it is as a precaution because we don't know you or these changes you've said you've done. All I see is aggression, now do you want to use the bathroom or not?"
"Yes, free me. Even as a prisoner I have rights!" She snapped. Her Sorceress energy was rising again she could tell. Fortunately, she burned off the wine. She felt the Sorceress in her pulsing through her veins.
He rubs at his chin, "you know... my twin fought for you. He defended you," he looks at her in curiosity.
She could tell her powers were coming back! The red sun emitters were no longer working. Only the bite of the kryptonite cuffs could be felt. "What did he say? And are you going to let me up or not? Getting a little desperate." She admitted, trying to hold her temper. She did not want to tip her hand yet. "Without the risk of angering you further- may I say your twin is alot nicer than you!"
He watches her, "I saw him more as a weasel at first... even punched him for blocking me." General Schott starts pacing in the room, "he refused to give you up to me... refused which had me think... why would he protect someone that so many on our Earth want punished?" He looks at her giving her a considerate look.
"He grew a pair and got into my face... which told me that you must be either really good at hiding what you are, or you've changed," he prepares to adjust her to go to the bathrooms but will not remove the cuffs. He looks up at her, "despite what you may think... I too have changed."
She smirked. Deciding it was best to keep her opinion to herself. She gets up and looks down at her feet. She makes small steps away from the bed. "Well? Where is it?"
General Schott walks with her and opens up a panel, a hidden door to the cell that pretty well looks like the inside of an outhouse. Only with proper plumbing, he stands on the other side of the door to give her privacy.
"Are you going to lower the settings? This is not going to be easy with the cuffs, let alone the kryptonite hurting me!" She snapped holding out the cuffs for him.
She is trying hard to hide the fact the Sorceress in her protected her super powers from the red sun emitters. She could fry him where he stood, but she was biding her time...
He grunts, "fine... or..." he turns to look at her, looking into her eyes. "A show of good faith?"
She cocked her head. "Good faith? Sure, if that is what you want to call chaining me like an animal." She purred dangerously.
Folding his arms, he thinks hard, "I remove the chains and cuffs... treat you like any other convicted criminal... you say you came here to face the music?" He looks at her, "I am trying to not be such an ass anymore, much like your husband."
"Don't talk about my husband. Lower the settings of the kryptonite please. I am not asking you to remove them." She bit out needing to use the facilities. She was pretty sure she could fly too. "Although the ankle cuffs would be nice." She quickly added.
He picks up on chatter in his ear microphone, tapping it, "I need an officer to swap places with me then... thank you," he drops his hand as a fresh, older officer comes in. "Lower the kryptonite settings as a show of good faith, she needs to use the bathroom. Please treat her like any other human being or you'll get a court martial so fast and be stripped of your rank before I pass through that door," he instructs and looks at his watch. "1 hour Kara Queen," General Schott leaves the two and the officer lowers the setting.
She suspects this. She waits for the officer to lower the settings and steps in. She realized she could break the chains, but the kryptonite was weakening her. She was not sure if she could fly far. So, she used the time to plot an escape while in the bathroom.
Quite a few minutes went by before the officer became uneasy. She had been in there awhile.
The officer clears his throat, "Kara Queen... is everything okay in there?"
"What do you think?!" She snapped.
The officer hears a loud commotion as she explodes through the outside wall of the outhouse cell.
Tapping his earpiece, "sir... she escaped!"
She realized it was going to be difficult keeping her balance with arms and legs cuffed. She flew straight up like a rocket to put as much distance from her and the rebels.
She tried to pull the cuffs off her legs to no avail, even with the kryptonite settings lowered, it still burned her ankles and her hands trying to remove them. She pulled a little too hard sending herself in a tailspin heading back to the ground. 'Oh Rao!' She exclaimed in her head as she felt herself free falling back down.
The officer could clearly see Kara falling back. She is doing a SG right now. Free falling on her back.
Winn has a team go out to retrieve Kara Queen from her crash site, informing to increase her cuff kryptonite levels as the council members had arrived early. He wasn't surprised by this as he picks up the bullets.
She is dazed, but not completely unconscious. She is only showing a little blood seeping from her mouth.
"General Schott, she is aware of her surroundings. Even though she is in a crater!" One if the team to retrieve her informed him.
"Should we prepare her for execution?"
"Do not harm her, bring her out front of city hall please," General Schott informs them.
She is lifted out of the crater. Her outfit torn in a few places. Her wrists and ankles heavily bruised and cut from the kryptonite.
"Yes Sir." They loaded her in the back of a truck, preparing to leave.
Soon they got to City Hall, and they lowered her to the ground. She tried to struggle, still concussed from her fall, she tried to locate the Sorceress inside her again.
The council members are all lined up at the top of the stairs. Two officers are dressed in Rebel Uniform just as General Schott is, a crowd has gathered with news crews.
A team of 4 heavy guards haul her up and hold her still dazing in front of the Council.
A woman steps forward with the papers in her hands. "With the evidence in my hands and discussion about the accused standing before us... former General Kara Queen has been brought here to answer for her crimes during the war. After deliberation we concluded a firing squad of our final 3 Kryptonite bullets will be what she faces." The woman looks at Kara Queen with anger in her eyes. General Schott steps forward, "do you have any last words?" He asks and watches her carefully.
"May you see the light of Rao when you burn!" She spat, and quite a bit of blood came with it.
The four guards held her, one shook her and grabbed her face for the outburst. "Shall we chain her to the post Sir?"
Kara could feel the heat vision building in her eyes. She quickly closed them.
She started plotting on how fast she could fly out without crashing this time and get the device and get back to Earth 38. She also quickly thought about why she even opted for being killed!
General Schott shakes his head, "no," he wipes at his face with a cloth from his pocket. "Hold her firmly." He steps back with the other two, loading their rifles with the single bullet each.
'Oh yeah... She thought in her head. Her heart had been broken...
"Ready!" The safety is taken of and guns are cocked, "aim!" General Schott orders and they all lift their rifles and rest their finger on the trigger as they look at the target.
He looks at her and then focuses, "FIRE!"
"Seriously?" Her eyes popped open just in time to feel the first bullet hit her in the sternum.
The guards held her as she was hurled back from the impact.
She felt her body shatter from the impact of all three kryptonite bullets. The heat vision exploded out if her frying all four guards that were attempting to hold her. The Sorceress powers were the only thing keeping her up and moving with three kryptonite bullets in her. She knew she had little time before she bled out.
She used her heat vision and took out the two other shooters. They quickly became charred bones. She raised her hands and burned through the cuffs, once hands free she threw wizards fire onto Winn Schott- the same that had been used against her twice. Winn Schott once General of the rebels was nothing more than ash at her feet.
She watched as the cameras followed her and everyone else did a mass exodus away. She launched herself in the air and super sped, time was of the essence, back to the lake where she had buried the device.
She nearly crashed plowing into the lake but allowing it to stop her fall.
Now in a world of pain she crawled out and grabbed the rock pushing it away from the shallow grave the device has been placed in. Quickly grabbing it up, setting it on the last portal it was set to- she activated it.
Soon the portal appeared. She couldn't fly! She couldn't walk! So close she had to figure out how to get through before she went unconscious.
She decided to crawl through. Barely staying conscious she rolled over through it after crawling her way up to it. She made sure to hold onto the device as she crashed onto the floor of the DEO hallway. Exactly where she had been before she left.
Kara realized she made it back before she collapsed from her near mortal wounds.
What are you excited about for the new season? Batgirl? Dark Supergirl?
