Hello all I can´t thank you enough for your reviews. I really enjoy reading them and I´m happy you like this story. Here is the new chapter.
CHAPTER 25: MIDVALE
Vasquez unsure on what to say to Jonn approached to his office "Sir you're not going to like this"
"What´s going on Vasquez?" They both walked to the main communications room and then he was able to know watch the recent news
"The fireman department was relieved when Supergirl appeared at the scene and help them to take out the 26 people who were at the camping zone. They wanted to thank her but she disappeared in the middle of the fire. There was a second woman with Supergirl. Could that mean we have a new hero in town?"
"Where is Kara?" Jonn was furious
Winn was nervous to see Jonn so upset "I thought she was at the med bay, I don't know when she left"
"Alex is with her… Sir" Vasquez said still nervous
Winn explained "I saw her flying. She was already near Midvale when she went to the fire zone"
"So Alex is the other woman the news mentioned?" Jonn asked Winn who was watching the monitor
"I think so. There was just one spot flying from the site of the fire to the mountains and then to Midvale beach"
Eliza heard the news and walked to know about her girls. She was mad at Kara for flying to the fire site but felt relieved when she knew Alex was with her "That's where they used to go to talk. We should let them stay there"
"Ok, we will see if they move by tomorrow morning and we will bring them back" Jonn said as he walked again to his office
Kara woke up next morning, her cape was covering her and the sun was rising. She heard the sound of the ocean and the birds and felt happy. She looked for Alex but she wasn't there. She frightened a little until she heard her voice
"Morning Kara. I didn't want to wake you up and I went for a walk"
"Hi Alex!" Kara has a big smile and was clearly excited to be with her
"How are you feeling? Powers on?" Alex said approaching to her.
Kara stayed silent for a minute trying to check her super hearing "No yet"
"Kara I heard your heartbeat when we were at the fire. It wasn't normal are you sure you're ok?"
"Don´t worry is nothing"
"You can trust me. What´s going on?"
"Can we please don´t talk about that for now?"
"I won't ask... for now. What do you want to talk about?"
Kara felt relieved as she didn´t have to explain about her health. Something that would be impossible if Alex had her memory. She decided to change the course of the conversation. "How did you arrive yesterday to save me?"
"I was at the high Mountains from Midvale and saw the fire. At first I wasn't sure about going there and help. I didn't know how I could help. Then I heard you screaming for help and without thinking I ran there. It was something in your voice that made me go. I needed to save you. I guess it was like when I helped you at CADMUS"
"You're always trying to protect me" Kara said confident. "Thank you Alex"
Alex cut the emotional moment since she wasn't sure on what to say "I was thinking about going somewhere to eat. I'm starving"
"Yeah me too" Kara kept silent and suddenly said excited "We can go to our house here!. It´s not far we can walk there"
"Our house? Ok, as you wish. Just know that after breakfast I'll take you to the DEO. You disappeared in the middle of a fire and I think some people might be looking for you"
"But I just want to keep on being with you"
"Kara you need to go back"
"That´s why I told you before not to think. You're right they might be worried. But I don't have to go back WE need to go back. They are waiting for both of us"
They walked towards their house trying to be careful with someone seeing Kara at her Supergirl outfit. Searched and found a spare key buried near the roses Eliza had. They went in and Kara ran to the kitchen.
"Ok let´s see what we can eat"
Alex got in and started to look at all the furniture and photos at the house. She took the family photo were Jeremiah, Eliza, Kara and her were. the sudden pain over her head made her drop the photo which caught Kara´s attention.
"Hey Alex, is everything ok?"
Ales quickly picked up the photo and placed it in its original place.
"Yes I just drop a photo. Do I smell waffles?"
"Yes they are getting ready. It was a good thing I actually learned how to make them"
"Those are frozen waffles Kara, you are just heating them"
"It's better than nothing!"
Alex took her attention to the waffles Kara was trying to heat "I think your waffles are getting burned"
"No they are not" Kara saw that actually they were turning black "I like them crunchy"
"Liar" Alex chuckled
That funny and relaxed Alex was the one Kara was missing so much. Just the both of them. No CADMUS following them. No health issues or alien attacks that could hurt them. Alex noticed that Kara was thinking about something.
"Hey earth calling the alien. Kara?"
"Sorry I got lost in my thoughts"
"I think is time to go back. Ready?"
"No really but let's go" Kara realized that going back would mean facing Jonn, Eliza and Cristina. They wouldn´t be happy with her because of leaving. Good thing is that Alex was with her.
"Eliza, Jonn! They are coming!"
"Are you sure Winn?" Eliza said happily
"Yes"
After some flying tricks and fun they landed at the DEO. Eliza and Winn were already waiting for them. Kara ran towards them.
"Kara, Alex thank God you're back!" Eliza said relieved to see her girls again.
"You got all of us worried" Winn said as he kissed Kara
Alex walked near them "My fault. I needed to talk with her"
"Why were you carrying Kara?" Winn asked.
"I blow out my powers. Not fully recovered yet" Kara said ashamed for leaving.
"That´s why Hamilton told you to wait" Eliza said giving her a disapproval look
"You will have your powers. Don´t worry sis"
Eliza was surprised by what Alex said "You remember!"
"Oh no I´m sorry. But I can't see this one is getting sad. I know she wants me to call her like that"
"Thinking about others… I'm so proud of you Alex. You're always helping others. I know you're confused sorry I¨m Eliza, your mother"
"I'm so sorry I can't remember. I saw some pictures of you" She grabbed again her hand to her head and the pain came back.
Kara noticed Alex´s pain "Don´t worry Alex we will help you. You should see Cristina"
They walked inside the DEO and Jonn was relieved to see them together.
"It´s good to see you again Alex. My name is Jonn Jonzz. I´m the director of the DEO"
"So you´re kind of my boss?"
"I´m. We will have time to talk Alex"
They went into the med bay. When Cristina saw Alex she was happy to see her friend again.
Jonn made the proper introductions. "Alex, this is Dr. Cristina Hamilton. She will take care of you as she always does"
"Hello Alex, what Jonn did not say is that I´m not only your doctor I'm your friend too and I'll help you"
"Thank you to all of you" She again felt the pain over her head. Images came along.
"Alex, you're ok?" Cristina Asked concerned.
Alex had flashbacks from her time talking with Cristina and how she asked her to take care of Kara. She also remember the many missions she was at with Jonn "I´ve headaches when I see these images. I think they are memories, but they don't feel like mine"
"I´ll give you some painkillers and will check you up. Is this ok for you?"
"Sure, you're the doctor"
This non fighting against medicine and the check up was something strange for Cristina but right now it was useful since Alex had experienced a lot in the recent days. Alex fell asleep after taking the painkillers.
Eliza approached to Cristina as quickly as she could. "How is she?"
"She has a headache. I gave her some painkillers besides that she is in good condition. There are no marks from the previous injuries. Her heart rate is fast but is just as Kara´s so I think is because of the Kryptonian powers"
"Can I see her?" Max appeared from behind
He caught Cristina by surprise "She is asleep right now. But if she wakes up she still doesn't remember so try to make it easy for her"
Eliza and Kara were surprised too when they saw him. They just smiled when he went into the room. Max was happy to see Alex again without all the med equipment surrounding her. He knew he couldn't wake her up because she might frighten so he just kept on seeing her and smiling. When she was about to leave he whispered "Thank you for staying alive agent" And he left the room.
"Now you" Cristina said to Kara "To your solar bed"
"I´ll go when Max leaves the room. I want to stay with Alex"
"Another Danvers not fighting to be at the med bay, this is the day for surprises. How are you feeling Kara?"
"Better, I felt really weak yesterday but now that Alex is here I'll rest as much as you want" As soon as Max was out Kara went into the room and stayed at her bed beside Alex. After a couple of hours Alex began to wake up and Kara noticed it.
"Hey Alex"
"Hey you!. I didn´t know you were staying here"
"Does it bothers you?"
"Not at all. You know I'm kind of remembering something… Did I used to call you alien?" She chuckled
"Yes, but it was when you were your mean you" Kara said not very happy "But now I'm getting used to hear you calling me like that. Although is weird"
Alex kept on thinking "I think little alien suits you better" Kara opened her eyes "I'm sorry is just that… you're younger than me... you're an alien but if it bothers you I won't call you again like that"
"You used to call me like that but just keep it between us" she sighed "You said you wanted to call me little alien before" she said almost sobbing.
"Kara do you think I will get my memories back?"
"Sure, Jonn will help you with that just as he helped Dr. Hills"
"Of course I will" Jonn heard them and got into the room
"Jonn!" Kara said happily
"How are you feeling Alex?"
"Headache besides that and the loss of memory everything ok Sir"
"Are you ready to get your memories back?"
"I have this images in my head about Kara and my parents. I want to remember and not just look at those images as if they weren't mine"
"You need to know more about you and I think I have an idea. Follow me"
The three of them walked out the room and by the direction Jonn took Kara knew where they were going.
"Jonn are you sure of what you are thinking?
"Ohh you know where are we going" Jonn said to Kara
"Yes but I don't know if it's the best option"
Alex annoyed for not understanding rolled her eyes. When they arrived Jonn turned to Alex "Ok, I need you to stay calm all right?"
"Sure, but I don't understand and you two keep on talking. What is this place?"
"Kara" Jonn said pointing at the panel. Kara placed her hand and the system began. When Alex saw her hologram she was astonished "How am I there?"
"It´s a special AI you finish working on a couple of weeks ago. It has all your memories. I couldn't think of a better way to remember than you telling your own story"
"Why did I do this?"
The AI started to talk "You did it to help your family in case you experienced an accident or something went wrong with you"
"Oh... and now it will help me"
"Just ask what you need to know and I´ll help you"
"Could you please leave me alone?"
"Sure, we will be outside if you need something" Kara and Jonn left the room
"I'll stay here and there is no way you can change that" Kara said to Jonn
"Maybe he can't but I will" Eliza said talking towards Kara "Sweetheart I know you want to be here for Alex but you also need to recover and I know Alex would like that too. Come with me and we will wait for her at your room"
Kara agreed and went with Eliza. Meanwhile Alex was talking to herself. She knew about her father, about how the relationship she had with Kara at first. About her uncontrollable behavior before joining the DEO, her friends at the DEO, Astra, the black mercy, Myriad... She stayed there for almost 2 hours but she needed to stop. She went out and went to talk to Cristina.
"Hamilton!"
Cristina was surprised to hear her name like that and by that voice "Alex?"
"Yes, don't get so excited I can't remember but I know who I was or who I am"
"So you have the facts but are only facts not your memories"
"Exactly. You said you could help me"
"Sure, whatever you need"
"The AI told me everything about me from the last years but I want to know what happened these weeks. Nor Kara neither Eliza would tell me. Could you please tell me?"
Cristina looked at Alex she walked to the door and closed it. She opened a drawer and took Alex´s file. "Alex many things happened in the last weeks. You were abducted by someone from CADMUS. He kidnapped Kara first and trick you to take you too. You were there for about three days. He gave you something that altered your system" She gave the file to Alex "There is all what happened, you can read it as I try to explain" Alex opened the file and started to read "Kara and you were in a critical condition. But you started to recover pretty fast to then have a sudden change that took you into a coma. You started to show improvement to some serum developed by CADMUS. A serum we got thanks to Kara. Unfortunately it erased your memory and you became under their control"
"That´s the time I remember at CADMUS. Is the place to where I took Kara"
"Yes, you were both there. I don't know what happened there but you helped Kara and got two shoots over your chest" Alex looked down trying to see the marks of their injuries "But again you recovered and there are no marks of any of your injuries. Anyway you didn't woke up"
"And I died?" She couldn´t get her sight away from the file.
Cristina sighed "Yes. Dr. Stevens declared you" It was difficult to Cristina to keep on talking. She cleaned her face as tears began to fall
"I can´t imagine how difficult it was for everyone here"
"Yes it was, you are my patient and it never gets easy to lose someone you care about. But a miracle happened. Dr. Hills came with a cure and he managed to bring you back.
You have powers now but no memories. Still I think that Jonn can help you with that"
"Could you please call him?"
"Sure wait here"
Cristina left for some minutes. Meanwhile Alex kept on reading her file trying to understand all that happened to her. Cristina and Jonn arrived
"Hamilton told me you wanted to see me"
"Yes, I know you can help me. Can I have my memories back?"
"Do you want to call your mother or Kara?"
"No. Just please do it"
"Ok, try to keep calm"
Cristina grabbed Alex´s shoulders to show her support as Jonn started to get into her mind. Alex felt a stronger headache and how her heart began to rush by seeing all her memories coming back. It was all a mix of images. CADMUS images from what they wanted her to believe with her real memories. Jonn let her go and Alex was agitated. She took small breathes and her eyes kept looking to the ground.
"Alex are you ok?" But Alex kept silent. When she turned her sight to Jonn. He saw a mix of anger and sadness over her face. "Alex?"
