Chapter 10

DEO OFFICE NATIONAL CITY

"Welcome back everyone. I bought you all pizzas. Congratulations on saving Supergirl." Brainy was ecstatic as he greeted everyone during the meeting.

"What happened to the donuts?" Kara asked.

"Brainy, tell her about the donuts. I know the truth." Alex put the AI on the spot.

"Oh boy. Since we all need to speak the truth. The donuts are from Lena Luthor. I thought it wasn't the right to bring donuts if they're from me."

"Thank you for the food, Brainy. You didn't have to." Alex said.

"Now, back to our goals. Let's pick it up on Lockwood and L Corp. Let's investigate everything. Brainy, how was L Corp?" Alex continued.

"It was pretty bad. I had to hack into the hacker's database to re-code all of Lena's properties and make it appear like they never knew anything about her inventions at all." Brainy provided them folders with the hacker's information.

"It wasn't Lockwood. He's working with the hacker. He just went to L Corp for Harun El but failed." Brainy continued.

"What? Then who is the hacker?" J'onn asked.

"Lex Luthor." Brainy said firmly.

"Are you sure about this? He was dead three weeks ago." Alex asked.

"Holy Rao." Was all Kara could say.

"Does Lena know about this?" J'onn asked.

"I'm going to find that by myself. Call me if you need me." She flew directly to L Corp.

L CORP

Kara was surprised when Lena's balcony doors were locked. She knocked with the slightest effort so it won't break.

"Lena! You've got to stop doing locking your doors on me." She shouted.

"I'm sorry. You should enter like any normal person would. I am the owner of this company. You need something, you can go through the front doors." Lena told her.

"You'll unlock it sooner than later. Please? I don't want to change clothes." Kara joked.

"I said what I said, Supergirl. See you in a few." Lena said.

Kara was about to get down the ground when Lena called her name.

"Supergirl, I made my office soundproof so you don't get to snoop around whenever you want to. You're using your super hearing right now."

"I won't do that to you." Kara sighed.

"You've done the worst thing I expected from anyone." Lena said as she stood up to pour herself a drink.

LENA'S OFFICE

"Kara Danvers, to what do I owe the pleasure?" She asked as if nothing happened.

"Lena, I have to tell you something and please just listen." Kara pleaded. Lena nodded as she stood up and sat down the couch. Kara followed out of instinct.

"The other day, Brainy received a video of Ben Lockwood barging in here for revenge. He destroyed some of your inventions but he was looking for Haruln El. You also got hacked that time because Lockwood is working with someone else." Kara didn't know how to tell Lena the truth.

"Kara, please proceed. I'm not a fan of dramatic pauses." Lena was calm.

"He's working with Lex." Lena looked shock.

"Are you sure about this?" She asked as she stood up.

"Brainy is 98% right in any events. It's him, Lena." Kara put her hands over her head because she couldn't even comprehend what just happened herself.

"It can't be. I don't believe it." Lena just stood at the front of her window overlooking the whole city.

"Better believe it, Lena. He's alive. And I need you to help me defeat him for whatever purpose he has. He hacked into your company." Kara was upset.

"I killed him." Lena turned around to meet Kara's eyes which showed a sense of shock when those words escaped Lena's lips.

"What?" Kara asked. She wanted to make sure what she heard was right.

"I killed Lex. That's why I was late at game night." Lena is a killer. She killed her brother.

"Don't worry this is the only secret I hid from you." Lena told Kara.

"I'll apologize to you every single day if I have to." Kara said firmly.

"I'll reject it every time. Call me if I need to know about Lex's revenge. Thank you. You may head out." Lena even pointed to the door.

Okay. But I'll be around. Kara wouldn't take no for an answer.
