A/N: Thank you for the comments.

Guest (1) -Or she doesn't believe she is capable of making mistakes. They needed to keep her distracted which is why they were trying to wind her up. It was a point blank explosion mixed with an injection of Kryptonite

Superkara - Happy to help!


When Alex opened her eyes she was aware of a heavy weight on her chest making it almost impossible to breathe. Forcing her eyes open her vision was obstructed by blonde hair covering her face.

"K-" She started only to stop herself and instead say. "Supergirl?"

"Alex?" Kara asked groggily as she started to move.

"Right here, like I said I'd be." Alex replied trying not to wince in pain.

"You okay?" Kara asked carefully moving off her sister trying to ignore the feeling of nausea.

"No. They did it again. What's with the arm breaks?" Alex asked miserably looking at the broken limb. "Where is she?" She asked looking round.

"Her body is over there." Psi said.

"Head is still unaccounted for." Livewire added.

"Wow, it worked." Alex said surprised.

"What did you do?" Kara asked.

"Used Winn's device as a weapon."

"Purity?" Supergirl asked looking round.

"With your goons. They were far enough away to not get splattered." Psi replied before looking round ensuring she was safe. Happy the danger was over she looked at Alex and Supergirl and was about to unleash a psychic attack when she suddenly felt something clamp round her head.

"I think it's safer for you not to have your power." Mon-El said before looking at the sisters. "You two okay?"

"We will be." Alex said before looking at Supergirl and saying. "We need to find the weapon."

"Sure." Kara said getting to her feet only to collapse to the ground.

"Ka-, Supergirl." Alex said scrambling to her side.

"The explosion must have caused her to get hit with Kryptonite." Mon-El said seeing a cut on Kara's neck. "I think I can get it out." He said. "But it would be better to do it on my ship."

"No. I'm okay. We need to find the device first." Kara said trying to stand again. "After we're all safe we can remove it."

"You can barely stand." Alex pointed out.

"I'll be okay." Kara said trying not to sway.

As Lillian stepped out of the lab Eliza approached the device and ran some more tests, convinced that Lillian was up to something. As she triple checked everything she realised there was one thing she hadn't thought necessary to check. Taking a sample she looked at it under the microscope and immediately realised what Lillian's plan was.

"He always said you were the smart one." Lillian commented as she walked up behind Eliza.

"You're a monster and I will not let you do this." Eliza responded.

"I'm not actually after your permission." Lillian pointed out. "And I don't have time for small talk." She added before drawing a taser and stunning Eliza who fell to the ground, hitting her head on the bench as she did so.

"What happened?" Lena asked as she entered the lab and saw Eliza sprawled on the floor.

"She fell and hit her head." Lillian shrugged.

"Did you do this?" Lena asked as she hurried to Eliza's side.

"The work bench did it." Lillian said. "Stop wasting your energy. It is time to go."

"Go where?" Lena asked.

"To the optimal release point. You can stand by my side, mother and daughter, whilst we defeat the Worldkillers."

"You've modified the device." Lena said.

"Of course. Don't worry it will still disperse a cure. But a cure mixed with a deadly toxin for Kryptonians. So shall we?" Lillian asked.

"You're insane." Lena said. "I'm not joining you. I am not like Lex-"

"You could be better than Lex, you have so much potential." Lillian replied.

"It won't work." Lena said. "For years I was desperate for your love and approval. I would have done anything to get it. But now, now I know I don't need it. I am my own woman."

"Yet the fortune to squander on vanity projects like CatCo comes from the family. With out the money you would have nothing. You would be nothing." Lillian said. "You are what you are because of us."

"I am what I am due to everyone I interact with." Lena said. "I will not be drawn into the darkness you crave."

"Darkness? I am offering you a chance to save the world with minimal causalities."

"No." Lena replied.

"Your choice." Lillian said zapping Lena with the taser. Once her daughter was on the floor she picked up the dispersal device and walked towards the door. As she passed Lena she commented.

"Next time we meet the world will be a different place."

"Anything?" Alex asked as Kara scanned the area with her x-ray vision. Although with the Kryptonite shard in her she could barely see anything.

"No."

"Then let us do this. You need to get the Kryptonite out." Alex said.

"J'onn will be back soon. When he is we'll swap." Kara said, her forehead showing beads of sweat.

"I could zap her unconscious and you could drag her back to that ship." Leslie offered.

"Stand back." Brainiac said as he entered the room. "Don't touch anything." He said as he held a device in front of him. Having waved the device around he pointed. "Through here. I'm surprised you didn't see it." Brainiac said to Kara. "Although you do look unwell. Have your powers failed?"

"Just take us to the device. Please." Kara ground out.

"Of course." He said removing a wall panel revealing a hidden room, set up like a lab.

"I assume this is not a meth factory." Leslie said looking round.

"I do not know what that is." Brainiac confessed. "But I suggest you do not use your powers in here. It would not end well."

"Just out of interest, when you screw this up, is your cure actually going to work?" Leslie asked.

"It should do." Alex said.

"Not exactly a ringing endorsement. But I'll take it." Leslie said before adding. "See ya." With that she disappeared into a power outlet.

"I said no powers." Brainiac complained as he stepped up to a large object in the room. "This is it. I think."

"You think?" Alex asked.

"I would need to run further tests. But I assume you would prefer me to ensure this device is deactivated first."

"Make it safe." Mon-El agreed. "Are you sure that is the only device?"

"The only one at this location."

"That's not exactly reassuring." Kara said struggling to hold herself upright.

"We need to get the Kryptonite out of you." Alex said frowning.

"You have Kryptonite in you? That's not good." Brainiac pointed out.

"Thanks Brainy." Mon-El said. "If you have this I'll take them to the ship."
