(Arrowverse Earth-38)
Kara and Eliza were able to talk down Alex as she now looked at her sister with a sword in her hand "Kara?" Alex asks and then turns to look at he mother "Mom?!" She then looked around to see the gathered group "Who are they? Why is Jonn in his Martian form? What is happening right now?" She is quiet confused as Kara tried her best to answer her. "Non and Indigo are using Myraid, a mind-control device that shut down a part of the brain that transmits optimism and hope in the people. We can reverse the effect of Myraid by giving the people there hope back." Kara then looked at the group that was gathered "They are helping me."
"Oh okay." Alex said as she looked at the group that looked quite similar to a human "Are they alien?"
"Ahhh funny thing." Kara said as she gave a chuckle "they are all human." Alex then looked towards them in surprise as Kara led her towards them. "Really?" Alex asks again and Kara nodded her head. "How are they unaffected by the effects of Myraid then?"
"The masked guy." Kara nodded towards the blonde man with lower face covered with mask "Can do mind merged thing and helped his freinds to get them out of there funk."
"Okay, can he do it on all of them?" Alex asks as Kara nodded her head in negative "He said the group is too large as he still learning that ability and also it would be better if it's done by someone they trust."
"You."
"Why does everyone believe that all of the National City trusts me?" Kara asks again.
"Because you are their hero." Alex put a hand on Kara and gave her a smile which she returned all of there attention then turned when Superman burst out of the building and landed in front of the group of heroes. Alex looked closely at somewhat bruise that was on the face of man of steel. "Nice Punch." Alex said to Kara.
"Yes, well it wasn't me that did it." Kara said back to her.
"So Jonn."
"Actually, no." Kara then turned towards the blonde haired guy again. "He did it."
"He punched superman and it hurt him!" Alex asked in surprise "are you sure they are human?"
"They believe it." Kara replied again but then turned to look at her younger-older cousin. "We have other matters to attend to." All of their attention including the Defender and the Aliens had their eyes trained on the man of steel. "How much time will it take?" Rand asks the supergirl who turned to look at the building from where they came. "They are still working on it." Kara said with her supervision as she turned to look back at them. "We have to defeat Superman to actually help him?" Alex asks her adoptive sister as she looked at them.
"Well we don't have any other option." Kara said when the blind guys turned towards at the other three people that were with him. "Alright Danny, you probably found out more than us, have anything to share."
"Actually yes." Iron Fist stated as Alex and Kara along with Jon looked at them "That guy over there is an alien, and is superhero of Metropolis, which is an actual city here." Jonn and Alex didn't miss the emphasis on the name of the city.
"Wait Alien, Superhero." Cage asks Iron Fist as she looked at them "Metropolis" "Not now Cage." Iron Fist said as he looked at him "He has super strength, freeze breath, super senses, flight, invulnerability, laser eyes, he is currently under mind control, on good note we do have her cousin on our side and on bad not he actually has more experience in using his powers, oh and he could be hurt by my punches and here I have your Billy clun." With that Iron Fist hand glowed again surprising Alex and he pulled a wierd red colored club from his coat and gave it to the blind guy, as he gazed at the last son of Krypton.
"Okay, and what about the guy on your side." Was that guy really blind?
"He is another alien, I don't know anything about him."
"He is actually from Mars." Kara said as both Jonn and Alex glared at her which she missed "he basically has our powers and few other extra things."
"Has he used his powers in actual combat." With that Kara looked at the two. "Well?"
"Are you kidding me?!" The blind guy? Yelled and turned towards Iron Fist "So the only thing we have against that guy who is basically strongest here with more experience with superpowers and we have two amateurs."
"Hey." Alex yelled affronted by the blind guy "I'll have you know that both of them are the strongest beings here and are actual good superheroes."
"Oh well then tell me Alex." The blind guy said to the surprise of the two aliens "what good is hero if they are dead, and with that all of the people are doomed here soon too."
"Matt we already have a lot on our plate we can't afford fighting among us." Rand called out to his blind friend.
Matt took a deep breath then turned to look at the man of steel that was now standing in front of them. "Does he have any weakness?" He asks again Iron Fist made a sound of no.
"We get weak from kryptonite." Kara said as she then turned to her sister "Alex has kryptonite sword."
"Does she now?" Matt muttered "Alright I want Cage and Jessica, along-" "duck!" Cage suddenly yelled when he jumped in front of the blind guy and got punched by the man of steel. Cage flew back a few meters as he tried to stuck his fist in the concrete road and use it to stop himself from going further buck. Jones was first to come to her senses when she also punched the man of steel from the side. Now on a side note keep in mind that Jessica Jones has super strength not compared to the kryptonian but still is strong enough to push them back and give a little damage "shitshitshitshit" Jones muttered as she rubbed the hand with which she punched the wonder boy of Metropolis "what is that guy made off?!" She totally missed the widened eyes of Alex, Jonn and Eliza, with them being surprised at the fact that, there was another person who was able to punch the man of steel and didn't have there hand broken. "Alright new plan, keep him busy till the guy above can connect to the satellite." Matt, the blind guy said as both him and Iron Fist quickly jumped forward in action followed by Supergirl and Jonn. Cage after coming out the stun shot ran back at Superman full force. Alex and Eliza on the other hand were more surprised than they already were. First the blind guy, Matt, could fight and had way too much good reflexes also his club could be used as a cable too. Then there was this Iron Fist, Rand, not only was he able to punch Superman and nearly knock him out but he was also knew martial arts. Then there was this Cage guy, he was able to take a head on blow from Superman and still stand up not only that but he also had super strength as was seen when he struck himself in concrete to fly further away and there was this Jones, she also have super strength as she using a car now to pummel superman, Superman suddenly caught her and threw her but she turned mid air and floated as if she knew how to fly, she could fly!.
"Alex!" Kara voice called out as she escaped from a laser eyes with Jonn following and making himself intangible to escape from the punch of Man of Steel. "A little help here." With that Alex came out of her stupor and decided to file about them at a later time. She took out the green sword and ran towards the man of steel. Superman seeing her coming at her with a sword which was emitting green light decided to escape by flying. Kara, Jonn and Jones quickly followed him the former catching up to him quickly he tried to punch Kara who deflected it with her fist and used her other hand to punch him towards the martian who quickly caught the man of steel and punched him down towards Jones who seeing the man of steel coming at her kicked him back down with a bicycle kick. With that he crashed into the road of the city and making a giant crater in it. Below the heroes on the ground waited for the dust to settle soon the figure of superman stood out again ready to attack but was tied up by the cables of the club of Matt, Alex quickly finding the chance ran towards the son of krypton and used the blunt side of the sword to hit him. The sudden appearance of the kryptonite made him weak which Matt quickly found as the guy was now on the ground and having a hard time to breath and kicked him near the head Superman tried to jump away from the kryptonite but he was held down by Matt and Alex on the ground. "Rand." He called out to the guy with the glowing fist "can you-" he was interrupted when Superman elbowed him in the stomach making him let go and kicked Alex away from him as the sword fell a bit away from her. Superman tried to get some distance but he was then held from behind in a grapple from Cage who after tightening his hold gave him a suplex with his head burying in the ground. Superman picked himself up and was about to kick Cage away when Iron Fist punched him the face again, Superman flew back again and was disoriented and seeing the chance Jonn quickly dived right at him and punched him to ground followed by Jones who did the same thing and Supergirl who after diving straight at him and making a huge crater and gave a final punch to Superman knocking him out completely.
"Okay." Kara said with long breaths "Now that is done." She then looked towards the face where Cat Grant was looking from at the action done on the ground. She looked at the gathered group who was with her "let's go see if it's done." Kara said as she got ready to fly back to the building with that she took both Alex and Eliza and flew to the top. Matt turned to look at Jones who understanding what he was implying took him. Jonn then looked at both of them "You take him." Rand who was panting on the ground said "I'll take the stairs have enough with flying around for today." With that he went inside the building. "Is it safe?" Luke asks him as he looked at the green alien. Jonn not saying anything quickly took him under his arms towards the building. Cage on the other hand yelped at first but was soon inside the building, he at first stumbled and fell to his side as he tried to keep his insides.
"Are you okay, Lucas?" Jonn asks as Cage eyes widen in surprise.
"How do you know my name?" Cage asks in confusion.
"I have limited telepathic abilities."
"You read my mind!" Cage yelled while looking at the big green alien.
"No fighting here, Cage." Matt from his place said where he was with Jones.
"We have other things have to deal with." Matt then turned to look at the genius who was working at the computer "we will be connected to the satellite in few minutes we just need to keep this place protected from any harm, the system here are quiet old so it will take some time to connect on the main network and every work stations and channels in the National City."
"So till the guy does his work." Jones stated as Rand come from one of the doors with a dorito in his hand and a soda in another "where did you get that?" Jones asks as she looked at the Iron Fist. "One of the shops down there had this, and I was hungry after using Iron Fist for too long." "You stole the food." Kara yelled feeling a bit irritated that this guy actually stole something when the whole of National city was in peril.
"Actually I paid for it with the money I had on me." Rand stated as he sat down and opened the pack of doritos and began munching on it after pulling his mask down allowing them to see the actual face of the person. "And I really needed to eat after the whole fight as I used a lot of energy today." He then took a huge sip from the soda can.
"We are ready." Lord voice came over as he looked at the gathered group. Kara on the other hand got nervous as Cat and Lord set up the cameras.
"What is it, Supergirl?" Alex said as she looked at her.
"I-I don't think I could do it." Kara stuttered out.
"Nonsense." Rand voice came over as he munched on the chips "I heard people talking about you before this whole fiasco, you are there hero, the little kids look up to you and the older citizens looks at you as their savior, if you can't do it than nobody can as all of them trusts you." He paused as the rest of Defenders and Jonn and Alex looked at him as still kept on munching "And if you don't do it than you will be letting all of them down especially who trusts you to save their lives in their time of need." Jones and Cage looked at him in surprise as he kept punching.
"He is right, you know." Alex said as she gave her an encouraging smile. "All of them trust you and it will work, just have some confidence in yourself and give these people their hope back." Kara gave her a smile and took a seat in front of the camera.
"Thank you." Alex quietly muttered to the guy who was munching on his snacks who just nodded his head.
Kara took a deep breath as she looked at the camera.
"We are rolling now Supergirl." Cat's voice came from behind the camera and Kara took a deep breath again.
The picture in front of the skin turned on with the face of Supergirl now on every screen in this city the voice coming from every single mic and radio and TV. Outside the building Superman stirred awake as he also turned to look at the picture of Supergirl on the big screens.
"People of National City" Supergirl said into the camera looking solemn "this is Supergirl, and... I hope you can hear me. We have been attacked. Mothers and fathers, friends and neighbors, children, everyone, suddenly stopped by a force of evil as great as this world has ever known. Your attacker has sought to take your free will. Your individuality. Your spirit, everything that makes you who you are. When facing an attack like this, it's easy to feel hopeless. We retreat, we lose our strength, we lose ourselves. I know." In front of Kara's eyes came the picture her mother putting her in a pod and of krypton for the last time she saw her planet exploding.
" I lost everything when I was young. When I first landed on this planet, I was sad and alone." Now the scene changes to that of her pod opening and looking around the place when Kal-el suddenly came from above and landed in front of him, how someone who was suppsoe to be younger than her was now older and how he now wore the symbol of her house on the chest.
"But I found out that there is so much love in this world, out there for the taking." Now in front of her were the whole Danvers family including Jermiah and how they taught her, Alex and her going out flying for the first time, Eliza making food for them, how Kal-El will drop by from time to time to check on her. Winn and James face came in front of her as she looked on, Cat and Carter, even Lucy and Maxwell Lord face came in front of her and for some reason Barry's face came as he gave her the smile and his advice when he talked to her about how everything will turn out to be alright.
" And you, the people of National City, you helped me. You let me be who I'm meant to be. You gave me back to myself. You made me stronger than I ever thought possible, and I love you for that" with that face of every person that she had met came in fron of her eyes and how she helped them. How she flew up to the tree to save a cat for a little girl, how she stopped crimes from happening around her. How these people saved her from Livewire and Banshee.
"Now, in each and every one of you, there is a light, a spirit that cannot be snuffed out. That won't give up. I need your help again. I need you to hope. Hope... that you will remember that you can all be heroes. Hope... that when faced with an enemy determined to destroy your spirit, you will fight back and thrive. Hope... that those who once may have shunned you will, in a moment of crisis, come to your aid. Hope... that you will see again the faces of those you love." As she said this she looked at the screen and face of her every freind came to the forefront of her mind.
"And perhaps even those you've lost." With that picture of her parents and Astra came to her mind and a tear gently slipped out of her eyes.
Alex, Eliza and Cat looked proud. Whereas the rest had somewhat of a awed look in their eyes.
"That was the most beautiful thing that I've heard." Cage said as he looked at the Girl of Steel and gave her a smile which she returned.
