"Carly, put him down." Barry warned, stepping closer to us.

I looked at him with shock. Lex was the bad guy, how could Barry be defending him? I looked at Barry with confusion, but never let go of Lex, "Why should I? He swapped with Superman. We are down a Paragon, two if I don't cut it. We will suffer due to his actions, shouldn't he be punished?"

I squeezed harder on Lex's throat and looked up at him with dark eyes. Within the small of fear in his eyes was satisfaction. He knew there was darkness in me and now it was coming to the surface.

Lex looked down at me with a smug smile, "Kill me, Carly. Show everyone what you really are. Let the darkness in. Kill me!"

"Carly, listen to me." J'onn said, taking a step forward so he was standing beside me. He placed his hand on my shoulder so I would look at him, "Kara, wouldn't want you to do this. Lex might be a horrid person, but we are the last 7 people alive. We need to work together, even if it is for a short while. Think of what Kara would do."

Kara wouldn't kill Lex, even if she really wanted to. I knew if I killed him, when she came back, Kara would be disappointed in me, maybe even angry. I wanted to end this crisis and run into Kara's arms proud of myself, not the other way around. So, instead of ripping his throat out like I wanted to do, I slowly set him back on his feet.

We had to figure out what we were going to do. With both Kryptonians down for the count, we had to think of a good plan and fast. Sadly, none of us knew where to even start and that is when time slowed down. Months went by and we had nothing.

Sara didn't believe in a tomorrow anymore. Kate trained every hour of the day for a fight that may never come. J'onn mediated for hours on end. Ryan and Lex tried to repurpose the broken technology of this place to find a way out, which just made Lex annoying. Barry had vanished soon after we arrived and no one had heard from him since. While I had lost any sliver of hope that I once had.

My bloodlust was getting to high levels, but I refused to hurt anyone. So, instead, I suffered in silence. Lex taunted me every day and I was getting to the point that I might actually kill him. I was clammy, weak-legged, shaky, and my stomach was twisted in knots. I knew drinking blood would fix the issue, but I would rather suffer than touch any of them.

All of them knew why I was in this condition, even Ryan somehow understood. I had each of them try to offer me some blood and I refused every time. I wasn't going to hurt any of them because if we got off this dumb Vanishing Point, they needed to be strong.

Ryan and Lex called us to the main room as they thought they found a way out of this god awful place. We all met up, me shuffling in last. Everyone looked at me with worry, but I ignored their looks and tried to seem confident. Ryan flipped on the device and sparks shot out at everyone. When he began to explain what made it spark, a bright light filled the room and Barry flew into the wall behind us.

I was the closest to Barry so I crouched down beside him. He looked just as bad as I did, if not worse. His eyes were sunken in, skin pale, and he looked so skinny, "Barry? Barry, are you okay?

"Where am I? Where am I?" Barry asked in bewilderment.

Sara stepped forward so Barry looked in her direction, "The Vanishing Point. You've been gone for months. Where did you go?"

"Months? No, it couldn't have been months. I just left two seconds ago." Barry mumbled with conviction, "I went into the Speed Force, well tried to. I didn't...I couldn't, it was like running a mountain at Mach 10. I couldn't...there's no way out of here."

Barry got up and was prepared to run again. Even in my weak state I couldn't let him go. I grabbed his hand and tried to hold him back, "Barry, wait. You look spent. You need to rest."

"No. I'm fine. I have to try again." Barry said, ripping his hand from my grasp.

He tried to make his way through the group, but each of us continued to block his path. All of us telling him to stay put, which just made him more and more agitated. Sara was the last straw.

Sara stood in front of him and placed a hand on his chest, "Barry, that's a bad idea, okay? The effort alone could kill you. We can't let you do this."

"So try and stop me!" Barry yelled

"In the condition you're in, Barry, it's not gonna be that hard." Sara threatened

I knew this was going to get out of hand so I appeared between the two and became a sort of wall, "Cut it out! Whatever's going to happen is not going to include us turning on each other. Maybe you're right. Maybe the Speed Force is our last hope…"

Suddenly creaking could be heard from behind me. We all looked in that direction to see a mysterious figure in black come from the darkness. When he lifted his hood, we realized it was Oliver, "It is. The Speed Force is the key to saving you. It's the key to saving everyone."

Barry stepped forward with eyes the size of dinner plates, "Oliver?"

He was in shock, but also surprise and a tint of joy. Just seeing Oliver again brought a small smile to his face. Yet what Oliver said next made his smile completely fade.

"I am Oliver Queen, but I'm also something more. Some might call me a ghost,

a Spectre that's in tune with the entire multiverse." Oliver explained

"So there's still a multiverse out there?" Ryan asked with hope in his eyes.

Oliver shook his head, "No. It's gone, replaced with its antithesis. An anti-matter universe. Which we need to prevent from happening. Right now, the Anti-Monitor is at the Dawn of Time, fighting to make permanent his destruction of worlds."

"Then we go there, and we end him." Kate suggested

"He's extremely powerful. The 8 of us might not be enough." Oliver said, looking directly at Barry and I. The others weren't looking great, but Barry and I looked like we were at death's door, "We need a backup plan."

"You have our attention." Sara said with crossed arms.

"Several millennia ago on a planet named Maltus, Mar Novu attempted to travel to the birth of the universe, but instead opened a breach to the anti-matter universe." Oliver explained

"So the Monitor gave us the Anti-Monitor." Lex thought aloud

"Correct. So while some of us fight at the Dawn of Time, others must go to Maltus and prevent Novu from freeing his doppelganger." Oliver explained

"I'm in." I said with conviction. The others didn't look as confident in me, but nodded their heads anyway.

"Travel to an alien world? So in." Ryan said looking toward me with a big smile.

"Same." Lex muttered as Ryan and I looked back at him with annoyance, "Come on. You know you don't want to risk letting me out of your sight for even a millisecond. Besides, I like to see you squirm."

Barry looked from Lex then back to Oliver, "We need the Speed Force to travel, but I can't get into the Speed Force right now. It's probably because there's no multiverse left, but you said you're in tune with the multiverse. Does that include the Speed Force?"

Oliver stepped forward with a warning, "What you're asking me is very dangerous, Barry."

"But possible." Barry said with hope, "You could give me the energy boost I need. Please. We have to do this. Everyone's lives depend on it."

Oliver caved and placed a hand on Barry's forehead. Barry suddenly looked as healthy as ever with a pep in his step. Oliver smiled and looked directly into Barry's eyes, "I've unlocked your potential, Barry. Do you trust me?"

"Are you really Oliver Queen?" Barry asked. Oliver looked at Barry with honesty and nodded his head. Barry exhaled a deep breath, "Then I trust you with every cell in my body."

"Good. Now run, Barry. Run."


Barry with his new heightened strength took us where we needed to go. He dropped Ryan, Lex, and I at Maltus while taking the others into the Speed Force. Ryan and I landed gracefully while Barry had thrown Lex into a giant pile of leaves. We laughed at Lex as he stood up and wiped the crumbles of leaves off his suit.

Ryan and I also got to our feet as Ryan looked around in awe and confusion, "Why doesn't this alien forest look more alien?"

I looked around and noticed the same humanistic forest, but it wasn't important right now. We needed to stay on task, "Let's focus. Mar Novu could be anywhere, and it's not like we can just do an Internet search for him."

"Well, actually, maybe we can." Ryan admitted as he pointed toward the city ahead of us, "Any city that large has to be a bureaucracy. Bureaucracies require some form of central data bank to function. We find that, we find Novu."

"That's actually not a bad idea…" I began as I noticed Lex was trying to sneak off. I turned around and yelled after him, "What do you think you're doing?"

"What you should have done the moment Flash dropped us off here. Checked out the lay of the land, looking for hidden dangers. We are on an alien world. Any number of creatures could be lying in wait." Lex warned as he began to walk off again. I ran up to him with Ryan keeping his distance, but staying close.

"I may be weak, Lex, but I can still kick your ass. Whatever it is you're planning, I'm gonna figure it out, and I'm gonna stop you." I said

"I doubt that. In a contest of mind over muscle, mind wins every time. Besides, you barely have the strength to stay on your own two feet. I bet you want to sink your teeth into one of us right now. I bet if we gave you opportunity you would try to kill us, but here. Let me make it easy for you. Ask me what I'm up to. Go ahead."

"All right. What are you up to, Lex?" I asked with crossed arms.

"Universal domination, of course."

Lex lifted his arm and an energy beam shot from his fingers. I didn't have any time to react before I was airborne. I was thrown into a tree and then everything went black. I could hear Ryan trying to stop Lex, but he was also knocked unconscious. A short time later Ryan woke up and came to my side.

"Carly? Carly, please wake up." Ryan begged, shaking my shoulders.

He continued to yell my name until my eyes fluttered open. I looked up at him as relief covered his features, "Ryan? What happened?"

"I think Lex pulled a Luthor on us." Ryan said, pulling me onto my feet, "On the bright side, I haven't been knocked unconscious on an alien planet before."

"It's pretty much the same as being knocked unconscious on Earth." I said as I looked him over, "No broken bones. You'll be fine."

"Thanks. This definitely makes me question again why I'm here. I haven't got special powers or, you know, powers in general. I'm pretty much the dictionary definition of unspecial, and I definitely don't feel like I'm a Paragon of Anything, let alone humanity." Ryan worried

"Ryan, you aren't the only one who feels unworthy." I said with sad eyes, "I'm not even supposed to be here. Kara switched places with me and now I have to live up to her greatness. I wouldn't even be able to come with you guys if it wasn't a cloudy day today because otherwise, I would be ashes by now. I'm barely holding it together, so I understand your worries, but you were chosen. Chosen for a purpose. You are meant for this, I know you are."

"Are you sure you guys got the right guy?"

"You left your family because someone you never even met told you you were needed. I'd say that makes you pretty special." I admitted

Ryan smiled and looked down at his feet, "I don't know about hope, but you're definitely the Paragon of Pep Talks."

"Yeah, I've gotten years of practice, but right now we need to catch up to Lex." I said as pain shot through my side, causing me to double over. Ryan tried to help me stand up straight again, but I shooed him away. After the pain subsided, I stood back up, but I needed a minute, "First, let's take a short break."

"Carly, you don't look too good." Ryan pointed out

"Yeah, don't really feel it either." I retorted with a gasp. I knew I was dying, but I didn't really want to admit it to myself. I knew the second I drank blood this pain would be gone, but I couldn't. Ryan didn't agree with my opinion.

"Well, then we are going to have to solve that." Ryan said, taking off his sweater while extending his arm toward me, "Drink from me."

"I'm not going to bite you, Ryan."

I pushed his arm away and gritted my teeth as the pain returned. We both knew I was our best shot at catching up to Lex so Ryan offered his arm to me again, "You need your strength, Carly. I am merely a human. We need your strength and speed to catch up to Lex and save the world of this crisis. We will lose if you continue to weaken. Now, drink from me."

"Why are you offering me such a thing?" I asked, looking toward him with dark eyes, "You learned I was a vamtronian a month ago and we have barely spoken since Ralph retrieved you. Why are you offering me something so valuable? If I lose control, I could kill you, Ryan. You may never see your wife or daughter again. Do you want to risk that for a stranger?"

Ryan thought about it for a moment, but he didn't change his mind, "You aren't a stranger, Carly. In the last few months while we were stuck in the Vanishing Point, I learned a lot about you. I know you are kind, quiet, sarcastic, and would rather be in pain yourself then hurt others. I get it, Carly, but we don't have time for this. I need you, the world needs you. Drink from me so we can get our loved ones back."

"I'm not going to bite you, Ryan. You need to be at full strength for this fight. I will manage." I said getting up from the tree only to collapse onto my knees.

"Carly, you know you can't." Ryan insisted, crouching down beside me, "I might not know much about vamtronians, but I have seen my fair share of vampire movies. The only way you will heal is if you consume blood. Waiting too long could kill you and we need all the help we can get. Don't worry about taking my strength, I have enough to go around."

"Ryan, no." I insisted

"Why? Why are you fighting against the one thing that can help you?"

"Because I don't want to be a monster!" I yelled, causing Ryan to jump, "I don't want to feed on people to get better. I don't want to take something from others to sustain myself. I only bit Kara because I had no other choice. If I had, I would have never laid my teeth in her neck. I don't want to bite anyone, Ryan. I don't want to lose control and become a monster. So please, don't make me do this."

"Carly, you aren't a monster."

"I am a monster...I truly am. I am just like the vampires from movies. I can't go in the sun without covering myself head to toe, I have the strength to kill, and I drink blood. I need blood to live, Ryan. I sustain myself on other people's life force. That is what a monster does and that is exactly what I am." I said, looking down at my feet.

Ryan shook his head and offered his arm to me a third time, "You are not a monster. Kara would not have given up her Paragon status if you were. She believed in you, I believe in you. Take enough to regain your strength so we can stop Lex and save the universe. You are the Paragon of Hope so act like it."

I didn't respond for almost a minute because I knew he was right. I didn't like it, but deep down I knew what he was saying was the truth. I took his arm in my hands and looked into his eyes to make sure this is what he still wanted. He looked nervous, but kept his ground and nodded. I took my attention back to his wrist and sunk my fangs into his skin.

He gasped and then as most did, he moaned. He tried to hold his breath because he knew how uncomfortable this already was. The taste of his blood exploded in my mouth in ecstasy. I didn't truly realize how hungry I had become until I tasted his life force. Both of my hands clung to Ryan's arm for dear life as I sucked the life out of him.

I wanted to keep going and take every last drop. I got close to stealing his life from him, but then I heard Ryan begging me to stop. His words cut through my haze like a machete in the rainforest. I lifted my mouth and wiped the blood from my lips. Ryan looked dazed, but alive. He wrapped up his arm with a piece of his shirt and looked at me with a smile, "You ready to save the universe?"

"Ready and able."

Ryan was dizzy, but he would survive. I warned him my speed was nothing like The Flash's, but that didn't mean I was slow. He got on my back and I gave him a piggyback ride to the city. Only one of the buildings, the biggest building, had the lights on. We snuck in through the back and found Lex talking to The Monitor.

"The experiment you're conducting will not only destroy you but your planet and your wife." Lex warned

"Another ancients zealot. I am so sick…" The Monitor began

"Don't know who they are. I'm not even from this universe." Lex interrupted with annoyance, "What I am from is the future, so I know exactly how your little time-jumping experiment will go wrong, and I am willing to share my future knowledge with you. That is, if you are willing to use your abilities to deal with some "super" problems in my world."

"I do not have any abilities."

"Stick with me, kid. Soon you will have more than you could imagine. So what do you say? Team up?" Lex asked as Novu seemed reluctant, "You might want to take my deal. You basically tore a little hole in the space-time continuum, opened a doorway into something called the anti-matter universe."

"Matter and anti-matter cannot coexist."

"Hence a lot of bad stuff happening that we would just as soon not have happen, so I think what we need to do is adjust the ronstrom coefficient." Lex said

Ryan and I looked at each other and realized it was time to make ourselves known. We stepped out from the doorway and I caught Lex's attention, "Mar Novu, do not trust this man with anything! Give him a knife for his food, and no matter how much he thanks you for the dinner, he'll stab you right in the back with it."

"Or the front. I'm not choosy."

"Last time, you caught me by surprise. That's not gonna happen again." I said with a hiss to my tone. I turned to Ryan, "Get Novu out of here."

Ryan nodded and stepped forward. He lightly grabbed Novu's arm, in fear Novu might attack him, "Come with me, sir, please."

Ryan escorted Novu out of the room while Lex and I stared each other down. We began to circle one another when Lex gave the first remark, "You look stronger. Did you get your blood fix, Neck Biter?"

"Maybe I did, Lex, but right now that doesn't matter. What does matter is you trying to twist things to your advantage again. Do you ever give up on this mission to ruin lives?" I threatened as our circling began to get smaller, "Do you care about anything? The world is literally gone and this is our last chance to save everyone and instead you are trying to mold something out of it."

"I might as well, who's gonna stop me?"

Lex lunged himself at me, but I dodged just in time for him to miss. He ran at me again his hands landing on my shoulders and pushing me backward. My feet slid across the stone tile as I pushed against him in the same manner. I grabbed him, twisted him around, and flipped him over my shoulder; his back slammed into the floor with a crack.

He quickly got up to a crouching position and shot an energy blast into my chest. I went flying across the room, did a flip mid-air and landed gracefully on my feet. He began rapidly shooting at me as I dodged each beam with ease. I appeared before him and used my speed to hit his foot, causing Lex to fall onto his back. I straddled him while holding his arms down beside his head.

"You were saying?"

"You an interesting creature, Carly." Lex said as he struggled to get his arms free, "If you weren't so good, you would be a perfect asset for me. You would be an amazing body guard if you drank blood regularly instead of last minute. You know you could join me. Instead of pretending to be the hero we all know you aren't."

"I might not be a hero, but I will never be like you." I said with poison on my tongue, "You hurt people for your own gain and I am not going to do that to myself. I might be a vampire or vamtronian or whatever, but that doesn't mean I have to be a monster. Not all monsters do monstrous things."

Lex was preparing to try and shoot me again. I grabbed his hand tightly and began squeezing. I would have broken his hand had not Ryan ran into the room, "Hey! Stop trying to kill each other. I got through to Novu."

I looked down at Lex and reluctantly got off of him. He pulled himself up and wiped the dust from his clothes and began to rub his now sore hand, "You just ruined a perfectly good bad guy plan, you know that, new guy?"


The three of us were in a place I did not recognize. Ryan almost collapsed as he wasn't at his full strength and that sudden speed made him weak-kneed. I helped him stand up as the other paragons appeared beside us with Barry appearing last. Everyone noticed my better demeanor and smiled. Ryan was the first to question what the hell was happening, "Where are we?"

"This is the anti-matter universe at the dawn of time." Oliver explained as he appeared in front of us and pointed at the figure in the distance, "We arrived, and he was already here."

"That's impossible." Ryan said dumbfounded with surprise, "I got through to him. I know I did."

A booming shock of electricity hit the ground about 200 feet in front of us with the Anti-Monitor appearing from the smoke, "Some fates are inescapable. You spoke to one man across countless universes, but within the tapestry of the multiverse, there will always be one Mar Novu who cannot turn from his towering ambition, and in that inevitability, there is destiny."

"All of you, listen to me. This is why you were selected. You're Paragons." Oliver announced as we stood strong together, "It means you're powerful enough to hold the line, to buy us the time we need. To rebirth the universe."

"What, like, a do-over?" Sara asked

"The Dawn of Time is the only place it can happen. I'll light the spark, you fan the flame."

Then Oliver and the Anti-Monitor were gone, the dementor-like beings took their place. We all looked at each other and ran full speed at the monsters. They were easy to dispatch with a simple punch, but with the multitude of them it was tedious and tiring work.

Each of us took out the beings in our own way. I would slash them to shreds with my strengthened nails, Barry would dissipate them with his speed, Lex shot them with beams of power, J'onn flew around them, and the others used their skills to punch them into nothing. I looked over and noticed Ryan was smiling as he took one out himself. I smiled back just as one knocked me on my ass.

I was about to get up when the thing grabbed me and pulled me into the sky. I struggled against its grasp as the ground got farther from my feet. How could a ghostly thing have this much strength? I fought against it and used my nails to make it vanish. Sadly, when it vanished nothing was holding me up anymore, so I began to fall. I squeezed my eyes shut and was ready for the pain, but the pain never came.

I opened my eyes to find J'onn had caught me inches from the ground, "Thank you, J'onn."

"Anything for family."

He set me down and we continued our battle. This went on until a ball of fire appeared on the ridge above us. The appearance of this fireball caused all the dementor things to vanish. We all grouped up and watch the ball of fire twist and turn.

"What is that?" Ryan asked aloud to no particular person.

"I'll light the spark, while you fan the flame." I muttered as a realization hit me like a brick wall. I looked toward Lex, "He said you would know what to do."

"I think dying kind of messed with his head." Lex retorted

"Well, think. You're meant to be the genius." J'onn said with annoyance.

"A genius who's had the fortitude to read The Book of Destiny and retain his sanity. There has to be something special about you. Think harder." Sara threatened

"The Book of Destiny." Lex whispered as it came to him. He turned to the group, "I made myself the Paragon of Truth. What if truth can tell us what we need to do? Use what's left of the book to fan the flame."

"How do we all use the book?" Ryan rightfully asked

Barry and I looked at each other at the same moment. We were both thinking the same thing, but Barry let me explain. I moved in front of the group and explained how we use the book, "We focus. A singular, laser-like focus. Humanity, truth, love, destiny, honor, courage...and hope."

The group agreed to the plan since it was the only one we had. We stood hand in hand and focused on why we were Paragons, sending that focus to Oliver. Suddenly, the beam of light from the center of the fireball vanished and the ball exploded. The sky above the ledge began to glow and twist as if it were alive.

"Oliver!" Barry yelled, taking a step forward.

Sara and I did the same. Sara was the first to speak our thoughts, "Barry, get us there."

Barry grabbed our arms and took us to Oliver. When we arrived on the ridge, the Anti-Monitor was nowhere to be seen, but Oliver was lying there gasping for air. We all kneeled beside him, Barry and Sara on one side and me on the other. Tears formed in our eyes because we all knew what was happening.

Oliver looked up at Sara and Barry, "I need both of you to watch over my family."

"Hey, Ollie. They're gonna be fine, all right? You're gonna be fine." Sarah denied as she tried desperately to hold back the tears. She knew what she was saying was futile, but she had to say it. Even thinking of losing Oliver a second time, made her heart ache.

"You did it. You all did...you all did it." Oliver muttered, looking up at the sky.

The three of us looked up to see a swirling vortex of sorts. It was twisting and turning, a light shining from the center. It was like it was alive. None of us knew what we were looking at it, but it was beautiful. The most beautiful thing any of us had seen in a long time.

"Oliver, we see it, but what are we looking at?" I asked

"It's the new universe." Oliver said, looking from the sky to each one of us, "You all did it. You saved the multiverse."

We all noticed how tired Oliver's eyes had gotten and Sara wasn't ready to let go yet, "No, Ollie, you did it, okay, and that's why you gotta come back with us, so we need you to hang on, okay?"

"Sara, this is just what the Monitor said would happen. There was an end. And there's a beginning." Oliver said, swallowing the spit in his throat and turning to look at Barry, "You remember what I told you?"

"Dying is the easy part."

"I'm at peace." Oliver said with a small smile, "The real heroes…"

"They're the ones that have to keep going."

"So keep going...and don't ever stop. This world, this new world...it needs you...all of you." Oliver said, turning to look at me, "You did good, Carly. Kara...would be proud."

"Oliver, don't go. This new universe needs you. They need heroes." I cried

He weakly smiled, but looked honestly into my eyes, "It has heroes. It has you. You might have darkness in you, Carly, but if someone like me can be redeemed so can you. Don't ever stop fighting."

I nodded while a tear rolled down my cheek. He looked up at the sky and closed his eyes with a single tear cascading down. The tension in his face loosened and his head dipped to the side. All three of us began to sob just as our surroundings got brighter. We knew this new universe was beginning to grow and we wouldn't have much time to say goodbye.

Barry leaned forward and with teary eyes, finally got to say goodbye to his dear friend, "Thank you, Oliver."

Everything around us lit up in a bright flash of white light. One minute we were at the dawn of time and the next I sat up on Kara's couch. I was hyperventilating as I fell onto the floor. I heard movement and someone crouched down beside me. I looked up and saw those ocean blue eyes I remembered.

"Kara?"

"Are you okay? Did you have a bad dream?" Kara asked, helping me to sit back on the couch. She sat down beside me with worry, making sure I didn't hurt myself falling onto the floor.

I looked around bewildered and confused, "I don't know. I'm...How did I get here?"

"Well, you fell asleep in front of the TV, and you just looked so peaceful, so I didn't have the heart to move you to the bed."

I rubbed my eyes and a voice in my head whispered the dawn of time. The words brought everything back and made me realize this felt weird. Something was off, that couldn't have been a dream. I wouldn't have imagined something so awful

I got off the couch, "Wait. What is...this isn't right. Well, I mean, it's right, but it's not right...because it's right. This feels weird, does this feel weird to you?"

Kara looked even more worried than she had before, "No, not really. Last night you were almost killed by Remus, but we saved you. After biting me...you passed out. Alex helped both us back here and you fell asleep on the couch."

Her words confused me, but then it truly hit me, "That's not even what happened. I bit you and then the Monitor showed up. We had to deal with a crisis and you…"

"Carly, I think you are more tired than I first thought. Why don't you lay back down and we can chat again later." Kara suggested, placing her hands on my crossed arms.

This wasn't right, I know this isn't right. It couldn't be. I pushed her hands off and decided I needed answers, "I...I gotta go."

"Carly, you aren't feeling well. Stay here." Kara begged

"I can't. I'm sorry."

I walked around Kara and went to the front door of her loft. I looked back at her and she looked worried, really worried. Probably thinking I lost my mind. I exhaled and left, slamming the door behind me. This couldn't be right. I couldn't let this be right because if it was then I never confessed my feelings to Kara. Which means she had no idea.

I shook those thoughts out of my head and left the building. I needed to talk to someone. Someone had to remember what happened. I made my way across town toward the DEO. I had to pray someone there could help me, otherwise I was going insane.
