Chapter Seven

Hey! I know it's been a while... and I don't really have a reason. I guess life just got too much and I forgot about this story. It's been on my mind a lot recently and... well you guys deserve the rest of the story.

So, here's chapter seven! I know it's short but I will post chapter eight either tomorrow or the next day.

Everything had been set up the way they were before the cave got compromised; kitchen, living, training, and medical areas were all in the same part. Bedrooms were around a corner to the right and the bathroom to the left. This time, they also set up a hiding place in case the trackers under Alex and Kara's skin were turned on.

Once everyone had settled down, many of them fell asleep again, but others cooked, ate, and exercised, among doing other things. Kayla sat watching TV, thinking about what had happened in the past weeks. The people who saved her were becoming her family, but she felt like something else was going to happen, something that was going to hurt. She remembered Kara's friend, Dreamer, saying that something was going to happen, but she didn't know what. At times, she also felt weak, even though she had all of her powers. She had started training with the others, doing exercises without the use of her powers, and training with Kara, showing her how to utilize her powers to the fullest.

One day while the two girls were training, and everyone else was off doing their own thing, the news flickered on; the words 'Robotic technology stolen from the military' flashed red across the TV screens and computer monitors. The Supers, the Arrow, and the Flash were blamed. They had nothing to do with it, but Team Arrow and Team Flash knew who was. Oliver's ex-friend, Toddrick Turner, or Todd. Oliver knew him when they were kids back on Earth One, but once Oliver got back from Lian Yu, he found out that Todd had become a serial killer who stalked his old friends before killing them. Oliver was on the list, and the two had been going after each other ever since then.

The many computers started beeping, and Felicity ran over to see what was happening; they were getting some kind of call from a location in National City; they knew it was from Todd. Everyone started putting their suits on and gathering their weapons, while Kara stood talking to Kayla and William, telling them to stay in the cave, and not to follow the teams; they agreed because they knew someone had to stay in the Fortress; plus, Kayla was beginning to not feel well.

After five minutes passed, and as the teams were turning to leave, Kayla passed out. Kara picked up Kayla's limp body and placed her on a medical bed, while Alex began to run tests to see what was happening, or at least why she fainted. Everyone else left as they had to deal with the "Todd" situation. Tests were run on Kayla. Alex thought it was weird that she was able to get a needle under the alien's impenetrable skin. All tests came back clear, and Alex was stumped until she realized that this was Kayla's body's way of dealing with the temporary loss of her powers.

Kayla woke up a few minutes after the tests came back, so Alex decided to let her heal a little, and compare Kayla's test results to Kara's; she noticed something odd, they had the exact same of everything, excluding Kayla's scars; it was like Kayla was Kara's clone. She remembered a piece of text out of a Kryptonian book stating, "If siblings were to occur then they were similar to one another, but multiple children born at the same time were always the same gender, and always exact clones". Kayla said that she was taken from her parents when she was born, Kara's mom had accidentally called her Kayla a few times and that she wished that there was another one of Kara. It was very clear.

She then heard a noise behind her, and it turned out that Kayla was walking towards her, seeming a little dulled. She asked her what happened, and why she woke up in the medical bay again; Alex told her a little bit before she heard another noise around the corner. It couldn't be William, he was watching TV in the living room of the large area. She went to investigate, only to be hit on the back of the head with something. She could see that Kayla was pushed and fell to the ground, landing on her arm. William put up a fight, but Alex didn't know how it ended as everything went black.

The others returned to find Alex on the ground, with a large, bloody laceration on the back of her head. For once, she was the one laid on a medical bed and monitored. Caitlin was observing her wound, trying to figure out how to wrap it up when Oliver and Kara yelled for Kayla and William they received no response and were nowhere to be found. Everyone took their positions around Felicity's computers, worried eyes flying across each screen as Felicity brought the security cameras and motion sensors up; the group watched as a man sneak behind Alex, and hit her on the head with a baseball bat. Then watched him walk up behind Kayla, who was running to Alex pushing her to the ground. Kara watched with wide eyes as Kayla fell forwards, her body landing on her wrist and face smashing into the ground, blood splattering everywhere. Lastly, they watched as William fought his hardest, ending with him getting the same blow to the head as Alex and Kayla. They watched the two youngest members of their tight-knit team get kidnapped and knew that they were in trouble.

A/N: I am writing another story, one about the Avengers so watch for that.

Anyways, hope you have a good day or night wherever you are.

This is Mel signing off.
