Astra and the Man in Yellow
Kara POV:
This morning didn't start off the way that I hoped. I had no water, so I was unable to shower or make myself a coffee, then I went to Jitters and ended up spilling my coffee all over some poor unsuspecting person. It was like the universe was against me today.
When I got to work my day got even worse, it turns out that Iris has been writing articles about Supergirl, and is trying to discover my identity. She will freak if she finds out that I am Supergirl. Winn is concerned about Iris finding out who I am, over the last three months I have been more and more active in the city, and in the age of social media there has been many photos of me floating around everywhere.
After finally finishing the self contained nano power cell, that has been based on a Kryptonian betahedron, I am now working on trying to get this to work with the technology that we have today in the hope of creating life-long clean renewable energy, I am free to spend more time with Barry.
This extra time at STAR labs means that I get to spend time with Caitlyn and Cisco, both if whom are very cool out of work, but it also means that I spend more time around Dr Wells.
After what I saw three months ago I have been trying to find out everything that I can about this Dr Wells. I have researched everything that I can online, as well as sneaking around STAR labs when I think that no one is watching.
From what I have discovered, his wife was killed in a car crash right before he moved to Central City, and he moved to Central City about two/three months after Nora Allen's death. He defiantly can walk and he has a hidden room with an AI inside, called Giddeon. I need more info before I can accuse him of knowing that the accelerator was going to explode before the switch on. My next task is to speak to past members of the team that made this place and see if they know something that the public doesn't.
Also during these last three months I have heard nothing from my Aunt Astra. I don't know why she is here, and what she wants with me, but all I know is that whatever she wants it can't be good. I went to Joe, as Supergirl, and asked him to keep an eye on any suspicious activity in the city. He agreed and in return I gave him a small communications device, that Winn and I developed, to contact me discreetly with the info.
My gut is telling me that something big is coming, and that even I may not be able to stop it. Winn and Alex are both concerned about how I am coping with the revelation that she is alive, and that she is evil, even though I don't think that she is. This is the woman who would sit me on her lap and teach me about the stars and the planet's.
Anyway as I walked into STAR labs this afternoon Barry was lying in bed and he looked like he had just been shaved, which tells me that Joe had been in earlier, Caitlyn and Cisco were both there, Caitlyn was checking Barry's vitals, and Cisco was tinkering with something in the corner of the room.
"Hey Ramone, hi Caitlyn. How is he doing today?"
"Hey Kara, he is doing good. Is brain waves are increasing and his vitals are holding steady. Hopefully this is good news for the future, Joe was here not long ago by the way."
"I can tell, Barry has had a shave. I am glad that his brainwaves are improving, but I am still concerned about his fast heart rate. If his heart was racing so fast in the hospital that even the machines couldn't register a heart rate I am concerned."
"I can run some more tests but I don't know what we will find."
She walked off and I pulled up a chair next to Barry. I spent a good two hours there chatting to Barry, explaining how I am trying to shrink down my energy cell, I spoke about how Alex is contemplating becoming a vigilante to help out. I mentioned that Winn and I had a star wars marathon and that I was almost insulted by how they portrayed aliens.
As I was about to leave I made plans to go out with Caitlyn and Cisco for drinks, I have been getting along with both of them really well and we have been speaking about going out for drinks for a while now. Then as I left I could hear Dr Wells talking to a woman in his secret room again. I made a plan to come back after, every one had gone home for the night, as Supergirl and find out just what this Dr Wells is up to.
I had fun out with Caitlyn and Cisco, and I invited Winn to join us and we had a blast. But now Winn and I are going to break into STAR labs and find out just what Dr Wells is up to.
Winn asked me to make sure that I don't get caught, and he has told Alex what I am up to, so she can hustle the cops if necessary. I silently flew above the clouds and once I was directly above I x-rayed the building, I could only see one body in the building and that was Barry, but there was a chunk.of the building that was lined with lead and I was unable to see in there.
I knew from my time of visiting Barry that there was a hole that had been blasted into the roof, and it leads almost right to the heart of the building. I signalled to Winn to hack the security feed and put the while thing on a loop and I flew in.
Sneaking around I found the section of wall that hid the secret room. As I reached out to touch the wall, and see if I could feel anything, my hand was scanned as though I had pressed a biometric scanner. Suddenly the wall folded back into itself, and I walked in to find a small empty room, with a hologram of a newspaper on show.
I was shocked but as I was walking around the room I could see a mannequin on the wall, it was empty but you could tell that something had been there. I decided to take a better look at the newspaper article on display, and the article made no sense. But what made less sense was the date of the article, it was dated for seven years in the future.
I was so focused on the article that it took me by surprise when a hologram of a woman's face appeared in front of me.
"Hello Kara Zor-El, how may I be of service?"
"Who are you?"
"I am Giddeon, you and Mr Allen create me in the future."
"What does Dr Wells want with Barry?"
"He wants Mr Allen's speed."
"Speed? What speed?"
"I am sorry tour instructions to me was that if I was to ever meet your young self I was to never tell you about your future."
"Time travel is real?"
"Yes. You need to go now, he is coming."
"Who is coming? Tell me."
"The reverse flash. Now go, you need to leave, you cannot beat him yet, you are not strong enough alone."
"What does that mean? Giddeon? Giddeon? Damn it."
At that moment I heard a wooshing sound, and footsteps getting nearer. I flew out of there at high speeds, and as I walked leaving I caught a glance of Dr Wells walking calmly back into the secret room dress in yellow. He is the man in yellow.
I flew back to my apartment, and met Winn, and spent the next hour explaining to him what I saw.
3rd Person POV:
Supergirl had no idea that she had been seen leaving the lab, but she had, and Harrison Wells knew that his cover might have been blown. He had to do something, he had to stop her.
He knew of the Kryptonians weakness to kryptonite but that would be difficult to get hold of, but not impossible. He had an inkling as to the identity of the girl of steel, but he wouldn't know until he confronted her.
Meanwhile Astra and Non were staring at what looked like a plant with tenticles that was lying on the table.
"Are you sure that this will work? And that she will feel no pain?"
"Are you having second thoughts about taking out your niece general. If you are I can always have you removed from command."
"I am not, but one cannot help but think that maybe she will be useful to our future efforts."
"What if she is too much like her mother and cousin, what if she tries to stop us. The black mercy is the easiest way to kill her. I will plant it in her home tomorrow, and then we will he free to implement our plan."
