Two months after the twins' first birthday, she waited anxiously for the Legion to return, since Winn had been the one to warn that he was coming home, which indicated that Mon-El would do it too.

She did not leave the DEO all day, wanting to be patient, but without being so, which was beginning to disturb everyone who was around her, mainly her sister, who had been trying to send her home with the little ones for a while, who were asleep in the stroller.

"I'm back!" Winn exclaimed, which made her turn to him, but frowning after noticing that he was alone.

Still, she did not hesitate to run to him to hug him, believing that Mon-El would appear behind him, this time to stay with them, but this did not happen for as long as the minutes passed and, although she wanted to ignore it, she had a feeling that something had happened, because she did not understand why he was not there if it was not for that.

"Where is Mon-El?" She asked making her best friend sigh. "Winn, where's Mon-El?" She repeated the question again.

"Kara ..." Winn did not seem to know what to answer her.

"You might want to sit down" Imra pointed to them, she was beginning to not like it. "It was two weeks ago, in the last mission, Mon-El left alone to investigate and we lost communication with him" Imra began to explain. "I went to look for him, but I didn't find him and the only thing left was this" Saturn Girl handed her the necklace, the one she had given him when she was forced to say goodbye to him for the first time. "He may just be disoriented and not to know how to return or he may be held there is no reason to think about the worst without having found his ... Body" the last word was just a whisper, which made a chill run through her body. "I'm sorry, Kara" She heard her whisper.

Was he dead? Was Mon-El dead? No, she shook her head, Imra was right, there was still hope that he was only being held, but what if by the time they found him, he was already dead?

Everything began to move around her, the tightness in her chest was present preventing her breathing, which only altered her even more, without being aware that she had been losing her balance for a while and, if it were not for the scream of her sister, perhaps she would not even have realized that she was already lying on the floor.

"I'm fine" she whispered trying to get up again, but she fell backwards without being able to get it.

"You're not," her sister denied, placing her hand on her shoulder to prevent her from getting up again. "J'onn, can you take her to the infirmary?" Alex asked him, but without receiving an answer, he picked her up.

Her head fell on her shoulder and she could not help it, feeling completely dizzy again, so she had to close her eyes in an attempt to prevent losing consciousness. However, when she opened them, she did not remember the time he had left her on the stretcher, nor the moment when her sister was beginning to make sure everything was okay.

"Maybe he's just disoriented, right?" She questioned in barely a whisper, seeing concern on her sister's face.

"It's a probability" Imra answered.

"But, what if he is hurt?" She asked with one possibility in mind, she needed hope, the one that she had lost some time ago.

"The probability that he continued alive being injured is virtually nil" explained Brainy getting everyone to look at him. "Sorry, I have been insensitive" he apologized, to which she nodded, the truth is that he was right in his words.

She clutched the necklace that had never fallen from her hand, bringing it closer to her heart while the tears could no longer be contained, wanting to maintain the hope that they would find him and he would be alive, that it would only be a matter of time until she saw him again.

"We'll do everything we can to find him," promised Imra, making her nod.

At that moment her concern was diverted to her daughters, she had not thought about raising them without their father and, although she had been doing it for a year, for some time she had been dreaming that he would be there with them to see how they grew and changed with the years, but now she was not so sure.

"The twins ..." She wanted to whisper.

"They're fine, you have to rest, Kara," her sister interrupted her. "We're going to help you until you're all right, okay?" She said.

"No need" she shook her head, she did not deserve her pity.

"Yes, you need help" J'onn answered. "You just received bad news and you need help to overcome it, little by little, Kara" he looked at her, to which she had to end nodding, it was not worthwhile to continue denying it.

After preparing everything they would need, she went to the DEO with the little ones, who, despite not understanding what was happening, seemed to feel that something was not quite right.

It had been a couple of weeks since she had learned what had happened with Mon-El, weeks in which she had lost hope of seeing him again, which had made her to lock in herself just as she did it the first time he left, the difference is that now she could not be exclusively Supergirl.

"Where are you going?" She heard her sister ask, which made her turn to look at her, noting how Alex was looking at the suitcases she was carrying.

"Argo" she answered without daring to look at her in the eyes.

"No, Kara, you're not going to do this, not again," her sister denied, causing her to frown.

"We're only going to Argo" she sighed beginning to get angry.

"I don't intend to allow you to distance yourself from everyone" her sister answered. "The other time you focused on being Supergirl and now, I understand that you need time, but I will not allow you to get away from all of us" Alex looked at her seriously. "Kara, we just want to help you," her sister sighed.

"I know, Alex, but I need some time" she said approaching to embrace her, to which her sister did not refuse.

"I love you, remember that I will always be here" whispered her sister hugging her tightly.

"I love you too," she whispered, parting from her to allow her to say goodbye to the little ones.

Once everything was ready, she set out to cross the portal, being able to observe the little faces of fascination of the little ones, who pointed to all the places without knowing what to pay attention to, since it was the first time that she took them to Argo being so conscious.

In a way she was not surprised to see her mother on the other side, knowing she was going to be waiting for her, so she tried to smile slightly as she approached her, although the tears struggled out of her eyes.

"Hey, kiddos" her mom crouched in front of the stroller to greet the girls, who smiled and stretched their arms towards her. "How are you?" she asked her before hugging her.

"Good" she smiled slightly, she did not want to start crying in front of her daughters.

She waited until both girls were asleep to explain the reasons for her visit to her mother, which was why these moments she was sitting in the couch hugging her mom while she was sobbing. Her mother did not respond at first, she just hugged her and, truthfully, it was the only thing she really needed.

"Kara, you can't lose hope that he is alive" whispered her mother before kissing her forehead.

"He's been missing for a month, What if they don't find him?" She could not help sobbing.

"They will do it," her mom tried to calm her down.

She distanced herself from her mother when she heard Vega's cry calling her, which made her get up from the couch and go in search of her, finding the little girl standing with her arms outstretched while tears fell down her cheeks. She took her in her arms to calm her, her daughter's dark blond curls glued on her forehead because of the sweat, so when she tried to brush them away she realized that the child was burning.

"Everything all right?" questioned her mother entering the room.

"She has a fever" she answered trying not to alter while Vega rested her head on her shoulder and closed her eyes.

"Do you want me to call a doctor?" asked her mother making her agree, the truth is that she would prefer it, she needed to make sure that the little one was not ill.

It took about ten minutes since they called until a young doctor arrived to take care of the little girl. She did not leave her daughter during the whole process, really wanting to hear that the child was healthy, that nothing was happening, because the last thing she needed was something serious.

"It seems to be an ear infection, she should be okay with an antibiotic in a couple of days" he explained as she hugged her daughter, who had fallen asleep again. "If she worsens, don't hesitate to call me" He said.

"We will, thank you" she tried to smile slightly.

Indeed, three days later the little girl was completely recovered, so she decided to go for a walk with both girls, since the previous days she had only taken Elara.

Both children pointed out everything they saw, looking for a way to attract her attention so that she would listen to them, so during the entire walk she dedicated herself to answering them.

"Hey, I see that she is finally fine" she heard someone comment, so she turned to meet the doctor who treated Vega the other night.

"She's much better, right, baby?" she replied stirring her daughter's hair, who smiled.

"By the way, I'm Eth-Van" he offered his hand to introduce himself.

"Kara Zor-El" she smiled accepting the handshake. "They're Vega and Elara" she presented them pointing them out.

"Twins are not usual around here" he said observing the little ones.

"Maybe that's why people tend to get close to us." She laughed ironically. "My mother had a twin sister, I suppose it's in my DNA," she explained, seeing him nod, for a moment the image of Mon-El appeared in her mind, making her duck her head. "I should go" she shook her head.

"Are you going to be here tomorrow?" He asked, which made her shrug. "See you soon, Kara Zor-El," he said to her, making her watch as he left, unsure of what had happened.

Hello!

As you read, Mon-El is missing or even dead, but nothing can be confirmed. On the other hand, Kara has returned to Argo and a new character, Eth-Van, has been introduced. Tell me what you think about him.

Thanks so much for reading,
