This chapter picks up where chapter 47 of Arrow's Story Redone left off.
When they arrived back at the DEO, all the Kryptonians headed to the lab.
"Ah, you guys arrived just in time to see my latest masterpieces." Winn said as he revealed 4 belt buckle like devices.
"What are these things?" Clark asked.
"These are based off of some force field tech I'm working on for standard issued DEO agents, only instead, they're designed to protect you from the effects of Kryptonite, since it's really just like any other dangerous substance. You just need to know the right materials to use to create a shield from it and we have. Just attach it to your belt and it will meld right into your suits, completely undetectable to any opponent." Winn said, since he'd learned from the original vest technology he'd made the first time around.
"And this will protect us from green kryptonite?" Kara asked.
"Actually, since the DEO has actually come across 2 other forms of Kryptonite, these devices are also designed to shield you from the effects of both red and silver kryptonite and can be modified additionally for other types of Kryptonite as well." Winn said as he handed Kara the device.
"Very efficient, now we can punch Metallo as much as we want and none of their attacks can hurt us. Sounds like the best of both worlds." Kara said.
"Kara, you're not going after Metallo. You're aunt and Clark are." Alex said.
"Wait, what?" Kara asked.
"I finally got authorization from the president to take Cadmus down and I need the person who has literally become the face of this agency on this mission. Besides Lillian Luthor held our father for years. I think that warrants some payback." Alex said.
"But do we know where Cadmus is operating out of?" Alura asked.
"J'onn has been working with dad, memory reading to see if there's any information buried in his mind we can use to find their base and it turns out that they have multiple bases and I'm sending strike teams to all of them, but you and I are taking the one most likely to be their headquarters. We're gonna raid it and put Cadmus in the ground once and for all." Alex said.
"Copy that, when do we leave?" Kara asked.
"Once we debrief all the team leaders of their assignments, we're hitting Cadmus hard and fast, like a blitzkrieg." Alex said as Vasquez entered the lab.
"Ma'am, Metallo's back. Both of them. Corben is here in National City and the other one is Metropolis." Vasquez said.
"I'll handle the one in National City." Astra said as she took the anti kryptonite device.
"Take a strike team with you, we need to minimize damage." Alex said and Astra nodded as she walked out of the lab.
"Clark, J'onn will go with you to take out the Metropolis Metallo. Once he's taken out, rendezvous with us at Cadmus HQ." Alex said.
"Copy that. But Alex, just to be clear, after this, I'm done with working the DEO as long as you use Kryptonite." Clark said.
"Then it's good thing we still have 3 other kryptonians are willing to work with us despite kryptonite." Alex said as Clark took one of the devices and left the lab as well.
Alex was standing at the front of the main room of the DEO where Kara, Mon-El, Alura, Sara, Ava, Lucy, Demos, Vasquez and all the other team leaders were standing at the ready.
"Project Cadmus thinks that they are the ones who will save the world from alien threats. The only problem with that is that they think all aliens are threats, including those who just want to live in peace and those like Supergirl and Superman, who protect this planet. The DEO was established on the purpose of protection, not just protecting humans, but all life on this planet, from extraterrestrial threats. Cadmus thinks that Aliens need to be eradicated just because they're a little different. But these people have just as much a right to be on this planet as we do, so now, we're taking Cadmus out. We've given authority by the president to do whatever is necessary to remove Cadmus from the board once and for all. Agents Lance, Sharpe and Lane will lead teams to these high profile Cadmus locations while I take Supergirl, Mon-El, Alura and a much larger taskforce to where we believe is Cadmus's primary base. Remember, make your shots count." Alex said.
"What about other Cadmus installations across the country and even the world?" Sara asked.
"This is a worldwide operation and we've already got agents engaging. Time for us to join them. You know your assignments, this is a surgical strike, watch your back and your teammates' backs." Alex said.
"Yes ma'am." Sara said as she and Alex went to go change into their mission suits.
"Alex, mind if I join the team? With my cybernetic arm, it could be helpful." Jeremiah said.
"You sure you're up for this?" Alex asked.
"I owe Cadmus as much as you do." Jeremiah reminded her and Alex grinned.
"We move out in 5." Alex said.
"Supergirl, what's it look like on the inside?" Alex asked her sister, who was floating in the sky with Alura as she and the tact team waited outside the facility which was actually one of Lex Luthor's old bunkers.
"The building's lined with lead, I can't see inside, so let's assume we're in the right place." Supergirl said.
"Then, let's crash the party." Alex said as nodded to Mon-El, who proceeded to punch the door down and the DEO swarmed with Supergirl and Alura flying in over them, to find Cadmus ready for them.
"Hello Supergirl. As you can see, we were expecting you." Lillian Luthor said with a grin as a she approached them, actually wearing the Lexo-suit and to their surprise, both Metallos appeared at her side.
"What the hell?" Alex asked.
"Holograms are a very helpful tool. We needed to thin your forces to give us an advantage." Lillian said.
"Knew we should've taken down the spy sooner." Supergirl said.
"We're taking you down now." Alex said as the DEO agents trained their weapons on Cadmus.
"You really think you can stop us?" Lillian asked.
"I do, because I called in a favor." Alex said with a smirk as suddenly, a transmat portal opened on the opposite side of the soldiers and a green arrow flew out of it, landing in an explosion causing the Cadmus soldiers to scatter as Green Arrow, Spartan, Speedy, Arsenal and Prometheus all jumped through it.
"Mind if we crash this party?" Green Arrow asked.
"All are welcome. Let's take out the trash." Supergirl said with a grin as she soared in and the battle begun.
