Chapter Text
Lena had put all the kryptonite away; she had no desire to hurt Sam, she looked at her friend who was clearly confused and rattled by what had happened. Lena watched there was no sign that Reign was back, that there was anything evil or nefarious about Sam. she was the same woman that she had always known, she walked over and placed her arm around her friends shoulder.
"Sam please, don't worry, you didn't lose any time, the powers are still accessible even now, and you're you, you have not reverted, you defeated Reign, you took control and you still have it now."
Sam wanted to believe Lena that everything was alright but she was not sure yet, she was nervous enough being around Lena, she would never forgive herself if she hurt her friend but she would die if she lost Alex, and well if anything was going to pull Reign out of her it was Kara, and if she hurt Kara or Alex she wouldn't survive that. Lena agreed that they wouldn't call them over and that they would just work here until it was all done and go to the DEO only when Sam was ready. It got to the point where everything was packed up categorised and sent to various locations, the only thing left was the transport for the matrix. Lena had rigged up a power source to move him safely and they headed to LCorp, once he was situated there would be no more excuses.
Lena messaged Brainy, informing him that they were transporting the Kryptonite and the experiment to LCorp and then they would be heading to the DEO, that she would like to see her mother, but first they needed to discuss what was happening and the way forward. Brainy had responded that there was more to discuss and explain that something had changed that she needed to come in as soon as she could.
"Sam something is wrong, Brainy is saying that we need to get in as soon as we can, I don't know what is happening but I don't like the sound of this."
Sam looked worried and couldn't help her thoughts spiralling out of control, what if Nia had seen her as reign and that she was going to go back to her old ways. She just wasn't sure what to think, Alex had not messaged.
"What if Nia has seen what I become and they are looking to take me in before it happens?"
"Sam, I protected you before, I helped you before, and I will again, but this time you have Alex and Kara too, if you think that there is anyone that can stand against all three of us you have lost your mind. Now let's go and find out what my mother has done this time, because with a Luthor in the cells I can guarantee that is more likely to be the issue."
After getting everything sorted at LCorp they both headed to the DEO, Lena and Sam were standing on the balcony, Sam still so very anxious, Lena was holding her by the shoulders and looking into her eyes. Lena was determined to calm her before she went in, she may be a super now but she needed time to make sure that she had a handle on her powers and high emotions were not needed right now.
The danvers sisters came up the stairs together walking towards their respective loves. The way that the two women were on the balcony, they knew that something was wrong. They shared a look, knowing each other well enough to know what the other was thinking, something had gone wrong and they knew it. Alex's mind was playing over what J'onn had said and there was definitely signs that Sam needed support; she could tell that by the way that Lena was holding her. They approached, Kara was sure that whatever support Sam needed right now, Lena would also be needing it soon enough.
"Lena, Sam we are so happy that you're back, we have a lot to discuss but first…."
Alex in a rare show of emotion grabbed hold of Sam and held her to her, kissing her deeply. She didn't normally allow this kind of slip in composure at work but she had spent the past few hours panicked by J'onn's warning and seeing Sam she couldn't help herself. Sam was a little taken aback by the sudden movement but melted into the kiss doing her best to make sure that she didn't hurt Alex. Kara was anxious about telling Lena what they had discovered and wanted to ensure that she had privacy for her reaction. After all Lena didn't allow many people into her life and Kara respected that.
"I think that we should head to the conference room, there is things that we need to talk about"
Kara smiled and took hold of Lena kissing her softly and all four headed into the room. Sitting down. The room fell silent at Sam's news momentarily before Nia looked up and smiled. She had seen Sam with powers working with Kara and Alex so she had no worries. Alex broke the silence first to support her love and after a while they were all on the same page, Sam wanted to help, make up for some of the devastation she had caused, Kara would help Sam control her powers and learn to control them, and Lena would make her a suit that showed hope, everyone was behind her supporting her and Sam started to feel a little better.
Lena Explained about the Experient and told them that the name on the file is Kon, Kara explained that it meant war, that he was a EL and that they would need to support him in his transition. Alex would supply psychic inhibitors so that they could work with him without him controlling people. Nia still had different visions although now there were more positive ones, it would appear that there was still a chance that Lillian could be the one to get to the boy. This was not going to happen even if Alex had to put Lillian in a black site. Lena would learn how to bring him out of the matrix, and Kara would help with him too.
The room had fallen silent and Lena could feel the tension. She knew that what was coming next was not going to be something that she wanted to hear. Kara moved closer and took her hands in her own and Lena knew that something very worrying was on its way.
"Lena as you know Lillian was not at the place we raided today, there were several Metalo's and it would appear that she was building a army, but they were for protection, they were not protecting Lillian, Lena, Lex, he is alive."
Lena knew that was not possible, she had shot him and watched him die herself. She shook her head and looked around the room, the looks on peoples faces were of pity what the hell was going on, Lena could feel her heart racing and Kara's pressure increasing as it did.
"Where is he, I want to see him now."
"Um, Lena I think that I should explain a few things first, I don't think that this is a …."
Lena cut Alex off, if her brother was indeed alive then she would see him and now.
"Take me to him"
Kara nodded and held up her hand to Alex, taking Lena by the hand and heading to the Med bay ensuring that everyone was out of the area she guided Lena as far as the door. She smiled at Lena and raised her hand pressing for her suit. Lena raised her brow at the addition and Kara opened the door, as Lena stepped into the room, she not only understood the need for the suit but could see what her mother had done with her brother.
"Mother why, what have you done?"
Lena may have killed him, but this was her brother, she couldn't stand to see him like this, and experiment, a creation of her mother's laying in the bed, augmented and recreated into a cyborg version of himself, powered by Kryptonite and it wouldn't be stable her mother wasn't able to create it, that was probably why he looked so ill. Lena went over to the bed and looked at him, he was sedated and clearly had other issues other than that which her mother had created. Lena turned eyes red, jaw hard and chin up.
"Take me to her now, Kara i need to speak to my mother"
"Before you do i need to tell you that He needs a kidney, and there was a set up for a second person in the location, she was planning on modifying you too, after she took a kidney that is."
Kara took Lena down to the cell. She stood outside looking at her mother, she was sat poised, perfect posture, a look on her face of smug superiority.
"It took them long enough to bring you, Lena you need to get me out of here. There is something that you don't know, and we don't have much time."
Lena raised her chin, her eyes furious and fixed on Lillian, she couldn't believe that this woman was so narcissistic that she would still believe that she would be here to help her, that wasn't exactly true she could believe it, but she never thought her mother would have gone this far, with her maybe but not with her golden boy.
"He wouldn't want to live like that Mother, why did you do that, why would you mutilate your son in this manner?"
For the first time in her life Lena saw the mask slip on her mother, a touch of emotion showing through, she was scared, there was fear in there but why? She couldn't understand where this was coming from, they had had her in a cell before, they had stopped her plans before, there was no change in her previously, her selfassuridness always shone through her innate belief that she was right and unstoppable, that every set back just meant that she was on the right path.
"You killed him Lena, you shot him and left him laying in the dirt to die, watched him bleed out and walked away, you didn't even give him time to explain to show you the truth, you just shot him. I saved him, I told you that everything I do is for my children, now he is not healed where is he, did the DEO take him, I need to get him to give him a treatment and we need that experiment, your brother needs a Kidney and stable Kryptonite."
Lena could have gone her whole life without Kara ever hearing that she was a murderer just like the rest of her family, Leave it to her mother to find a way to destroy them by accident, she couldn't bring herself to look at Kara, but she did understand one thing, Lillian had not expected for them to find her or Lex, and that's what she feared, the DEO shutting him off.
"He is out of your reach, and you are out of time"
Lena turned her head down and walked out of the area followed by Kara once outside the tears started to fall. Kara pulled her close and held her.
"I am still here and I am not going anywhere Lena"
Lena finally looked up to see Kara full of love and compassion looking at her, Kara dipped down and kissed her softly.
"I will make sure that you are in control of what happens to Lex, Lena. I swear"
