Astra heard stories about the Black Mercy. How if you ever returned from it, you would experience a loss like no other. That your greatest fear would come to life.
Lying on the ground, Astra wants to laugh at those stories, because this would never be what Kara fears most.
She sees her niece bend over head and smiles shakenly, "Hello, little one," she gasps for breath as Kara takes her into her arms, "I'm so happy to see your sister was able to bring you back."
"Astra, I have to tell you, when I was under the Black Mercy, you were there," Kara said trying to keep calm.
Astra winces, she didn't want to hear the words from her beloved niece's mouth, not when such a strange glint grows in her eyes, "As your enemy," she says for her.
Kara sobs, "As my family."
Those words break her more than anything and Astra knows what's she had to do, "Kara Kara, listen to me," Astra tells her and Kara stares at her intensely as Astra take the girl's face in her hands, "Non cannot be stopped. If you stand in his way, he will kill you and those you love."
Kara smile slightly at her, the strange glint growing stronger. "Hush. It's ok," Kara whispers in Krypnonise.
"Myriad. You have to know-" Astra tries to tell her.
"It's ok Astra. I know," Kara tell her, a cruel smile on her face, "You don't have to worry. I know everything. Non would hurt me."
Astra feels her heart squeeze, and it's not because of the injury. Please Rao No. Let it not be!
"Please no," Astra whispered and Kara lays her down, bending closer to Astra's ear.
"I will be a better wife then you ever were," Kara whispers with promise.
Astra chocks out a sob. Perhaps the stories were true, but misplaced. It was not Kara that was experiencing her worst nightmare, it was Astra.
"Please," Astra chokes again, begging Kara to see reason.
"Myriad will happen," Kara tell her, "And the humans will bow to us."
Astra cries as the darkness come upon her, her niece's, her little one's, cruel smile being the last thing she saw.
