Chapter 15: His Brother's Keeper
Summary:
the assault on the Eagle's Nest is underway but lex still has a trick or two in his sleeve
Notes:
little violence, nothing major. this chapter and the next is where it really diverges from history and is more like a call of duty or medal of honor game than anything realistic. just thought it would be fun to have lex go batshit when the allies have them trapped like this.
Kara stood on the road leading to the Eagle's Nest. The allies had moved into Austria and were very close to where they were now. Kara and Winn were dressed in SS uniforms. The two of them sat in the front of the truck carrying Easy, who was armed to the teeth.
In the distance, Kara could make out a grand mansion, one of Hitler's prized homes. The place seemed to be abandoned, no soldiers patrolling it whatsoever. The truck got closer and closer until they arrived at the steps leading to the main house.
Kara turned to Winn and nodded, the two getting out of the truck. They walked to the back and Easy began to file out. With everyone armed, they made their way into the home. Kara had everyone wait outside. If anyone wanted to wring Lex Luthor's neck right now, it was him.
Kara rounded a corner, when he spotted two people sitting by the fireplace in the living room. As Kara got closer, weapon drawn, one figure stood up.
Lex Luthor was dressed in a stark white Nazi unifrom, his cap in his right hand, his Nazi party armband on the left.
Lillian sat in the opposite chair, dressed in the regular clothes of a upper class woman, the only sign of her involvement being a Nazi party pin on her dress.
Lex turned to Kara, a warm smile on his face that made Kara cringe.
"How nice of you to join us Mister Danvers. I've just been dying to meet my future brother-in-law" Lex gestured to a seat across from him and Lillian. Kara moved to it but didn't sit, his weapon not leaving Lex.
Lex sat back down in his chair and crossed his legs. "I heard theres a wedding in order though i didn't receive my invitation, and is there another Luthor child on the way? I've always loved children." Lex asked, feigning interest. This question made Kara frown.
Lex laughed "What? You think i would leave and not have someone watch my sister?" Lex leaned forward in his chair.
"I know exactly who you are Kara Danvers. And i intend to use you for everything you have." Lex leaned back in his chair and reached into his pocket. He pulled out a small device, looking much like a detonator.
"You have a choice. Call off your men and come with me, or I will kill you and your men." Kara thought of it for a moment. Kara apparently took to long.
An explosion went off in another part of the house, Kara could hear his men yelling and moving in on the house. He thought of Winn and Dick outside, two friends he wanted to get home above all else. I can't kill anymore of them
"Fine but let them go" Kara moved to stand in front of Lex, and Lex smiled
"A promise is a promise."
Kara ran to the door, where his men began to pour in.
"All of you retreat! You need to get ou-" before Kara could finish, a shot could be heard, and something hit him in the chest.
Explosions continued to go off in other parts of the home, as if strategically pushing his men out. Kara fell to the ground and Winn ran, calling for him.
Winn grabbed Kara's hand but he pushed him away
"Go. you have to leave me. Please" Kara pleaded with him. Blood began to pool on the floor. Winn's eyes started to water and Dick came running over and grabbed him.
Winn began to yell "No not you too. Please, don't make me do this"
Kara yelled for them to go again, as the place his men once stood collapsed. A pair of arms grabbed Kara and pulled him to another part of the home that had not been destroyed yet.
They were pulled into a basement that seemed to run for miles.
Secret Nazi tunnels? Kara wondered.
This is it isn't it? God Lena. I'm sorry Kara's eyes began to close, his consciousness leaving when Lex spoke to him.
"Don't worry Kara. We're not done with you yet. You'll live"
Great
