GUYS! Guess what!?
I do not and will not ever own Supergirl in my life. I don't own the characters either. I will put them back when I'm done.
So thanks for the incredible amount of REVIEWS AND REQUEST! Like holy crap! You guys are ridiculously amazing and the request were sooooo amazing!
We got 27 request and reviews! You guys never fail to make me swell with joy!
Do you think we can make it to 30 on this next chapter...? If YouTubers can get 3 million subscribers, I hope that I can get 30 reviews! Haha!
Anywho, this might be the last update for the summer. Or maybe it won't be. It'll depend on how you guys and how I feel. This story may or may not be dragging out, I don't think it is but I'm sure a few of you do! If you feel that way, let me know and I'll try to do a MAJOR change in my writing style for a chapter, just to try it.
I'm hoping to be able to start updating this story on Tuesdays and Saturdays. Little One will be on Fridays, and I don't know if I will continue We're Not Broken, Just Bent yet or not. As of right now, no. As of next week, we'll see how I feel about it. Things may change :)
This chapter - Alex brings home a DEO K-9 and rushes into a burning building to save Kara.
Requested by - Guest and Yoyo
Dear Guest and Yoyo, I would have loved to use your request individually, but they didn't quite allow for a long chapter. I'm sorry about that...
Next chapter - Alex has a nightmare.
Question - anything you guys want to happen in her nightmare and anything you want Kara to do when Alex finally wakes up? Let me know in the reviews! :)
More Authors notes at the bottom.

"Hank, pleeeeeaaaase!" Alex stood before her boss/father figure trying to convince him to let her take one of the Special Force Department of Extranormal Operations K-9 dogs.
"Alex, those aren't just dogs at some shelter you can just go to and adopt. These are elite task force top of the line German Shepard Dogs. They can be dangerous." Hank warned, rubbing his temples.
Alex had been begging to take Digs home ever since he arrived at the DEO as a nine week old puppy.
"And I'm not dangerous? You aren't dangerous? Kara isn't dangerous? Look, we are only dangerous if we choose to be. The same goes for Digs! And if you tell Kara I said she was potentially dangerous, I will become dangerous." Alex's hazel eyes narrowed threateningly as she stared, more like glared, at Hank.
"Yes Alex, I know. I wouldn't tell her. And you still can't take the dog home. He stays here. Where he belongs." Hank stood up tall. "End of story."
"But-" Alex started up again, only to be cut off by Hank.
"I said, end. Of. Story." The Green Martian left the room without another word. To be honest, Hank was just glad Kara wasn't there. Those big blue puppy dog eyes were starting to make him cave.
Alex sighed and sat down against the table. 'If I took Digs anyway, how much trouble would I be in...?' Alex wondered cautiously to herself. 'No, Kara is terrible at keeping secrets. She'd accidentally tell J'onn. Then where would we be?'
"Alex, don't you even think about taking that dog home with you!" She heard J'onn tell her in her mind.
Alex sighed, 'right, Martians can read minds.' The elder Danvers sister wined.
"Don't you forget it either." Hank said in her mind again.
'This is getting weird. Can you stop that?' Alex practically hissed at him.
"Right away. But your not taking that dog home with you!" Hank finally left Alex to her own thoughts and the elder Danvers had an idea.
Kara absolutely loved Digs. He was her favorite dog out of all the others in the DEO, it's why Alex had wanted to take him home. The older Danvers really loved Digs, but there was something about the way Digs looked at Kara and how Kara looked at Digs. The dog loved Kara as much as she loved the dog.
Alex walked calmly out of the room an up to Hank again. "Last chance, can I please take the dog home?" The Martian froze. Something about Alex's little smirk and the little shimmer in her eyes made him nervous.
"N-no Alex! You can't take the dog home!" As much as he had tried to sound intimidating, he knew his voice wavered.
"I warned you." And with that Alex was gone, leaving Hank to sit and wonder what that devious little agent of his had in store for him.
After two hours of being uneasy, Hank realized what he'd been warned against.
There was Kara, sitting on the solar panels pouting. Her blue eyes were rimmed with tears and her breathing was hitched.
"Kara?" Hank slowly entered the room, very uncomfortable with the situation.
"Y-yes?" The blonde looked up at her name.
"What's, Uhhh. What's wrong?" Hank scratched his neck nervously.
"I. Alex said that Digs was d-d-dead!" And the youngest Danvers was sobbing again.
"No! No, Kara. Don't cry. Digs is alive and well, he's in his kennel if you want to go see him." Hank comforted.
"R-really?" Kara looked up and Hank melted a little inside.
"Yes. If fact, why don't you go get him and take him home." He regretted it the moment he said it. Alex had played him. She told Kara that Digs was dead, so that the younger Danvers would look pitiful and J'onn would feel bad for her. Then, he'd give into Kara's love for the dog without the alien girl even asking. Alex had won. Damn it.
"Really! You really mean it!" That excitement in those previously sad blue eyes... He didn't have the heart to break it. Kara was like a daughter to him now, and he couldn't turn his youngest 'child' down like that. He didn't want to Alex either, but there was something odd about it. Alex challenged him and Kara didn't...
"Yes. I really mean it. Go get him, I know you know where he his." Before he could finish reading sentence Kara was already at Digs cage and petting the two year old German Shepard.
"Hi Digsy boy!" Kara greeted and hugged the dog.
"I warned you." Hank heard the almost mocking voice of Alex behind him.
"Oh hush you." Hank grunted and marched off to his office.
"Alex! We get to take Digs home!" Kara hugged sister tightly but suddenly stopped and pulled back. "Why would you tell me Digs was dead!?"
"Because I needed you to look upset so that J'onn would let you bring Digs home." Alex smiled gently at her younger sister.
"Oh." Kara was back to smiling and petting Digs. "C'mon boy!" Kara patted her side and the German Shepard followed her out, Alex entwining her fingers in Kara's.
"Alex! Awwwww! Look at him!" Kara gushed as Digs hoping into the backseat of Alex's car and sticking his head out of the window.
"Yes Kar, I know. He really is adorable." Alex reached behind her and scratched just behind Digs ears.
The dog panted happily at the affection and leaned into the touch.
"Wow, I still can't believe he's actually coming home with us! This is amazing!" Kara squealed and Alex couldn't help but awe at the adorableness of it.
"Your so cute." The older Danvers smiled and started the car.
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"Arf!" A loud bark from Digs silenced to the bickering sisters.
"Okay, okay. Alex's right. I'm cute, you win. Both of you win. But, Digs! Your supposed to be on my side!" Kara giggled and ruffled the 90 pound German Shepard's fur.
Once they all made it home, Alex realized what I mistake bringing Digs home might have been. There was dog fur... Everywhere. It was floating around her, covering her floor, and finding its way into every nook and cranny imaginable.
"Ugh!" Alex exclaimed as she lifted up a large clump of brown fit with black and grey hughs to it. "So much fur. Just... How do you even have fur on your body?" Alex looked at the playful German Shepard who in turn to her question stood up and shook off even more fur.
"Leave him alone, Alex. He's adorable!" Kara got down level with Digs and (gently) play wrestled him.
"Your not the one who has to clean all this up." Alex grumbled but, despite herself, smiled at the adorable pair playing on the floor.
"Hehehehahaha! Digs! Stop it, that tickles!" Kara giggled like an innocent child as the large dog breed licked her in the face happily.
"Alright you two, knock it off. I've got to finish cleaning up that mutts hair. Because a certain someone who retains super speed, strength, and near infinite stamina refuses to help. Because she's lazy." Alex smirked and rolled Kara out of her way with her foot.
"Yeah, well. I have better things to do." The blond grumbled out.
"Like?" Alex raised an eyebrow.
"Saving people's lives." The younger Danvers folded her arms defiantly.
"Okay, but your not doing that right now, are you?" Alex stated as she dusted off the coffee table.
"No. But I could be needed any second."
"But not this second."
"Yeah, but what about the next?"
"And that's the next. Not this one." Alex explained.
"Ruff!" A loud bark once again silenced the bickering sisters.
"Geez. He's worst than mom." Alex smiled and sat down on her couch.
"For real." Kara joined her, Digs hopping up beside her and resting his head against her legs.
"If he didn't shed so much, I'd see about bribing J'onn for him. But, the hair..." Alex shuddered. "I understand now why mom said I couldn't have a dog."
"What do you mean? We were getting a dog?"
"Well, I asked for a dog on my birthday. And mom said no. Then we get a phone call stating that you showed up and instead of a puppy I got a little sister."
"Am I better than a puppy?" Kara looked up playfully.
"Sometimes." Alex smirked and Kara pouted. That wasn't the answer she expected. "Okay, I kid. I kid. Your way better than a puppy. Sure I could have taught a puppy tricks but you," Alex got that glint in her eyes and leaned a little closer to her sister. "I got to do so much more with. I had someone to talk to, someone to advise, someone to teach, someone to love, someone to protect. I had so much more with you than with a dog. A dog wouldn't be half as amazing as you are." Alex pressed and gentle kiss against Kara's cheek and smiled.
"I'm glad you got me instead of a dog to. I'd be so lost without you." Kara rested her head against Alex's shoulder. "I love you."
"I love you too. Even if you are a brat." Alex laughed at Kara's huff.
"Yeah, well. Your nosy." The youngest Danvers complained.
"I'm your big sister. That's my job."
"You can't blame everything on the fact that your a big sister, ya know."
"Yes I can." Alex smiled.
"Why?"
"Because I'm a big sister."
"Ugh!" Kara huffed loudly and rolled her eyes while Alex laughed.
"Smile. You love to smile." Alex chasted.
"I do not." Kara felt her lips twitching.
"Oh?" Alex leaned over Kara and began to tickle her mercilessly.
"Okay, okay. What's for dinner." Kara managed to say through her giggles.
"Food." Alex simply stated.
"What kind of food?"
"Edible kind."
"Why so secretive?"
"Because I'm a big sister."
"Oh my Roa stop it!" Kara wined.
"Fine. I'll go make dinner."
"You still didn't answer my question!"
"I don't have to." Alex walked into the kitchen.
"Why not?" Just before Kara could say, 'I swear if you say because I'm your big sister again I will melt your face' Alex said, "because I'm your big sister."
"Aleeeeeeeeex!"
"Karaaaaaaaaa!"
"Please stop it." Kara pleaded.
"Okay. For now." Alex set to work in dinner.
"Gotta fly!" Kara yelled and before Alex could even say 'okay, bye be careful, love you!' Kara was already gone.
As it turned out a building was on fire and thankfully being from krypton meant Kara was fireproof.
But as Kara came to the last room something felt off. She was dizzy, tired, and weak. Definitely not normal for Kara.
A faint green glow could be seen in one of the back rooms and undoubtably it was kryptonite. Kara collapsed onto her knees and heaved for breath, not really feeling much like herself.
It was all she could do to keep awake as everything began to turn dark. "Alex." Was all Kara could breath out before she fell at the hands of the kryptonite and the smoke.
Alex's phone began to ring and the DEO's called idea appeared on the screen. "Hello?"
"It's your sister. She's trapped in the fire. A very strong amount of kryptonite is in the building." Director Henshaw's voice rang desperately through the phone.
"Digs, stay! I have to go save Kara." Alex instructed as she rushed out of the apartment, not noticing that Digs was hot on her heels.
She managed to get down to the currently burning building in record time, and found herself rushing in without hesitation as half the firemen and DEO agents tried to stop her.
The buildings structure was beginning to sub come to the flames as it groaned Beneath Alex's weight.
The older Danvers began to cough and wheeze as she went deeper into the fire. "KARA!" Alex called out. No response. "KARA!" Alex went into a coughing fit but still heard no response.
Alex's hands dragged against corse metal as she made her way blindly through the thick smoke and roaring flames.
"Kara!" Alex managed out as she tripped over a piece of fallen metal, most likely from the buildings structure.
Then she heard it.
It was weak and quiet, hardly even audible, but Alex knew that voice. With a new found strength Alex pushed threw and raced towards the area where she had heard her name faintly being called.
She came to a skidded stop in front of a dirty, yet familiar, red cape. Kara laid covered in soot from the flames, her cape wrapped tightly around her like a blanket.
"Kara!" Alex fell to her knees and pulled Kara into her lap, checking her over before trying to pull the younger Girl along.
A large and very heavy wooden beam collapsed, blocking they're only exit. They were trapped in the flames, and a escape route was unknown.
"Kara, stay with me. Come on. We're gonna be okay, I know it." Alex said and with a grunt, lifted the blonde alien off of the ground and carried her bridal style as far away from the kryptonite as possible.
She made it to the fallen beam, but couldn't get any further, as the flames were rising around her.
Alex used her feet to kick against the heavy log and she felt it give in a little, meaning it had a weak spot. With a heavy grunt she kicked it in with all of her strength. Thankfully, it created a gap just big enough for her to get through, but she still didn't know which way to go next.
There was a noise.
It was faint but still loud enough to be heard. It was a bark. And not just any bark, Dig's bark. He barked again and Alex took her chances, running in the direction of the bark.
Another bark, followed by another one. Alex followed the barks, hoping that it would take her to an exit.
The air was becoming much to thick to breath and Alex felt the urge to pass out, but for the sake of Kara, she kept going.
Finally, she could see light again and she ran out of it, collapsing with Kara still in her arms about fifteen feet away from the burning building.
Not even thirty seconds after she emerged did the building collapse completely, falling down and into a Pile of dark ash.
News reporters surrounded the sisters, asking questions about why she ran in there like that and who Supergirl was to her and why Supergirl had collapsed like that.
It angered Alex greatly that not a single reporter had asked if Supergirl was okay or not. Only the citizens did that as both girls were loaded onto an ambulance and given oxygen mask.
Digs hoped into the ambulance with them, growling when someone tried to remove him.
He laid next to Kara, resting his head against Kara's chest and nuzzling her affectionately. It was almost like he was saying "please wake up. You've gotta be okay. Please."
Alex reached over and petted him gently. "Thank you. For saving us. If you hadn't barked, I wouldn't have known which way to go. Thank you."
Digs whined softly, his version of saying no problem, any time.
A few hours later Kara finally came back to, And in a panicked frenzy.
"Alex?" Kara say up and blue eyes meet round, dark brown eyes. A long pink tongue lapped up the side of her face making her smile. "Digs, hey boy. Where's Alex?" Kara scratched behind his ears and looked around for her sister, only to find the older woman fast asleep in a chair next to her, Alex's hand intwined in her own.
Sleepy hazel eyes pealed open and went wide with relief. "Kara!" Alex leaned forward and tightly hugged the youngest Danvers, squeezing her tightly.
"What... What happened?" Kara asked and Alex began to explain everything to her.
"So you and Digs saved me?" The alien girl asked.
"What else are big sisters and 90 pound German Shepards for?" Alex responded playfully.
"True." Kara chuckled.
"Get some more rest. You need it."
"No. I want to sleep at home, shall we?" Kara moved to sit up, only to be pushed down by Alex.
"Five more minutes. Then we can go home."
"Fine." The younger Danvers sister huffed.
