Hi guys! I'm back with a new story! This time, I wanted to write a crossover between two of my favorite shows. I hope you guys enjoy! Disclaimer: I don't own "Supergirl" or "Shadowhunters" nor do I own the lyrics to the song in this chapter. This story takes place post season 4 of "Supergirl."
After arriving in National City, I went straight to the L-Corp building. I knew exactly who I was looking for and where I was going. I soon arrived at the top floor and went directly to the reception desk.
"Excuse me?" I said, politely.
The woman sitting at the desk looked up at me. "How can I help you?"
"I'm looking for Lena Luthor," I said. "She's not really expecting me, so I plan to surprise her with my visit. Is she available right now?"
"Yes. She's heading to her office right now," the woman said. "Would you like me to let her know you're here?"
"No, thank you," I said. "I would just like to know where her office is, please."
"Sure," the woman said. She motioned in the direction I was to go. "Just right through these doors."
"Okay," I said. "Thank you very much."
She got up from her seat and opened one of the doors, allowing me in.
I entered the huge office and politely sat down in the nearest seat, which happened to be a couch. As I looked around, I took notice that on the TV screen on the wall, the news channel it was on was doing a report on Supergirl. Admittedly, I did admire her for being a hero, but I was also skeptical about my chances of meeting her. The reason why was because whenever I had the chance of meeting a famous iconic person, I never get the chance to meet them face to face since other people seem to get right in my way.
The moment I heard two voices on the other side of the doors, I turned my head to the entrance of the office. The doors opened to reveal two women happily talking to each other. The dark long hair and pale complexion of the thin woman was not what I was expecting, but her green eyes were the notion that she was the woman I was looking for. Lena was talking to a young woman with blonde hair, glasses, and a bright smile on her face. They seemed to be having a conversation as if they were very close friends.
I stood up, causing Lena and the young woman to turn their heads to me.
"Hello," Lena said. "Is there something I can help you with?"
"Hi," I said. "I'm Abigail. And I guess that you don't really remember me."
"You've met her before?" the young woman asked.
"I… don't think I have," Lena said, a little confused.
"Uh…" I took a quick look back at my bag then at Lena. "Excuse me for a moment." I opened my satchel-like bag. I reached into one of the pockets and pulled out the item I was looking for. I turned to Lena again and held out a photograph. "Here."
She politely took the polaroid photograph in her hand and looked it. In the picture, there was a very young Lena sitting on the floor with a big smile on her face. The little girl in the photograph was sitting next to a little baby girl on the floor, who seemed to be around six months old and smiling at the girl right next to her with a baby toy in her hand.
It took her a moment to realize that this photo was taken when she was in a family friend's home, before she was pulled away into the Luthor family.
"This… this picture…" she said. She looked at me. "How did you get this?"
"My mother gave it to me before I moved out," I said. "I was too young at the time to understand what the picture meant. But the night before I moved out of my parents' house, my mom gave that photo to me. She told me that even though I was just a baby, her friend came over one day to keep her company with her daughter. I was fussing and was about to start crying, until that little girl held me in her arms and I immediately stopped. I even opened my eyes for the second time since I was born. My mother told me that the very first time I truly smiled was when I was in that girl's arms. But when I was put in my mother's arms, I began to cry again. That little girl asked to hold me again and once I was in her arms again, I stopped crying. So, for a while, my mom's friend would come over every day with her daughter. The only times I wouldn't cry or was fussy when I was away from that girl was when I had to be fed, when I had to be changed, and when I was sleeping. During the time I was awake, I would always be playing with that little girl. The two of us were inseparable until her father took her away and her mother passed away. I was told that before she left, I was given a stuffed animal from her that I would also not be separated from. I still have it, but just not with me now since it's at my place. But I wanted to come here so I could meet the person who helped take care of me when I was just an infant."
Lena had tears in her eyes once I finished speaking. She came over to me, staring at me as if I was that young infant again. I didn't know what to do or how to react until she wrapped her arms around me.
Kara smiled as I hugged Lena back. This was one of those beautiful moments in movies where one of the main characters was reunited with a long lost relative or friend they have carried in their hearts.
"I guess I should go," Kara said. "I'll let you two have some time together."
"No, it's okay," Lena said turning to her. "You can stay." With her arm wrapped around my shoulders, she turned her head to me. "Abigail, this is Kara Danvers," she said, motioning to the blonde. "A reporter from CatCo and my best friend."
"Hi," she said as we shook hands. "It's nice to meet you."
"And it's an honor to meet you," I said. "I've been reading your articles and I will admit: you're my number one favorite."
Kara flashed a bright smile at me. "Aww, thanks. You're so sweet."
Some time later, Lena and I were at one of her favorite restaurants for dinner. She wanted us to catch up so much that she cancelled her entire week just so she can spend time with me. I told her about how I became a successful author for fictional adventure stories and a part time singer, opening for Contemporary Christian artists at their concerts. But I have my own concert to perform at National City this time. Throughout the entire evening, we felt like very close sisters who had a strong bond with one another. She had asked me how I was able to find her and I told her that it felt like there was never a moment I didn't feel without her by my side in spirit, even if she didn't know it.
However, I had to get enough rest for the concert that was the next day. Lena proposed to go with me and give me a ride, but I told her that I will be fine and the hotel I was staying at wasn't too far away. So, she promised me that she will be at the concert tomorrow to watch me perform.
Meanwhile, Kara was in the sky as Supergirl keeping watch over the city. She then spotted me walk out of the door of a restaurant. I had put one of my earbuds in my ears and had opened a music app on my phone after pulling the hood of my jacket on as it began to rain.
With a smile on my face still, I sang the song I was listening to as I walked down a street that wasn't bustling with people.
"I've been a sinner
I've been a saint
A little bit of both every single day
I've been lost
But somehow I've been found."
Even though the rain continued to fall, Kara could still hear my voice. Listening to me singing brought a smile to her face and a feeling of hope and faith into her heart. She began to wonder how this came to be just by listening to someone sing, but she pushed that thought away as she watched me.
"There's been some pain
Been some regret
Been some moments I'll never forget
But when I look back
From where I'm standing now."
Supergirl smiled even more when she saw me get into the spirit of singing as if I was on stage or no one was watching me.
"There's never been a moment
I was not held inside your arms
And there's never been a day when you were not who you say you are
Yours forever, it don't matter
What I'm walking through
'Cause no matter where I'm going
There's never been a moment that I was not loved by you."
Suddenly, she heard a bank alarm go off. Supergirl looked in the direction the sound was coming from with a frown. She took a glance at me again then flew off in the direction the robbery was taking place.
I was humming the rest of the song I was listening to with a smile on my face, while walking down the sidewalk. Then, a strange feeling came over me causing me to stop and the smile to disappear. It felt like my heart was racing unexpectedly and for no reason at all. Both my hands had this strange tingling sensation the moment my heart began to beat fast. Reluctantly, I paused my music and took my earbuds out, putting my headphones and phone in my bag. It felt like my entire body except my hands and chest went numb. I just stood there staring at the empty space in front of me while the rain continued to fall.
A glowing light was what caught my attention. It didn't break this feeling that still had a hold on me. It was in the middle of the alleyway that I was standing in front of. I turned to the small light that almost looked like a star had fallen from the night sky down to Earth. The next thing I knew was that I was walking towards the source of the light as if my legs and feet had a mind of their own.
Once the light was right at my feet, I kneeled down to it. I took my bag off my shoulders and set it on the ground next to me. The feeling I felt in my hands and chest only grew stronger. Captivated by the glow of the light and feeling within me, I reached out to the source of the light. My fingers wrapped around whatever was casting the light. I tried to pick it up, but it felt like it was stuck. So, with a gentle pull, I freed whatever was in the ground with ease.
I brought the light closer to me in order to observe it. It was some type of crystal. Its length and size were the same of a small flashlight. And for some strange reason, it felt like it was radiating an unbelievable amount of energy.
My mind went blank and before I knew it, I was holding the crystal up pointing it towards the sky with my eyes still locked on it. The crystal grew brighter and brighter until it looked like a bright light instead of a crystal in my hand. Then, a beam of that same white light shot up into the sky. The beam shot through the clouds, piercing through it like a needle through cloth. Just like in the movies, the clouds began to swirl around the light, moving away from the light to reveal the night sky.
Lena had just left the restaurant after speaking to a business partner, when she saw the pillar of light. Supergirl had just finished up with securing the robbers then she saw the bright light. Both women went to investigate.
After a few seconds, an even brighter beam of the same light shot back down the pillar, towards me. I continued to stand there, seemingly oblivious to what was happening. Once the beam reached the crystal, I was engulfed by a bright flash.
Lena had reached the alley and Supergirl was above her when the burst of light happened. They both held up their hands to cover their eyes from the bright light. They could do nothing except watch, especially when the air blew out from the light.
Ten seconds later, the beam was retreating to the light in front of them and the clouds were returning to normal. Once the beam ended, the light turned into a silhouette shape of a type of bird. The shape retreated to the source and the light began to fade away. Supergirl and Lena lowered their hands to see what had happened.
The light was fading into me as I remained in the position I was in before. Once the light was gone and everything seemed to be back to normal, my eyes rolled back as I closed them and collapsed to the ground. The crystal rolled out of my hand after I hit the ground. The glow was gone.
Lena ran over to me, hoping I was okay. She kneeled down at my side, put one hand behind my head and the other on my side to lift me off the ground. I appeared to be unconscious, but Lena assumed the worse.
Supergirl landed just a yard away and Lena raised her head to her. The Kryptonian approached the two of us, her eyes locked on me. She kneeled down on the other side of me.
"Please, help her," Lena said with tears in her eyes.
"I'll do what I can," Supergirl said. She scooped me up in her arms and got to her feet. "I'll meet you at the DEO, Miss Luthor." She took off into the sky.
Lena was still on her knees as she watched the Kryptonian fly off towards the building of the DEO. Then, she saw the crystal on the ground. She remembered that it had rolled out of my hand when I had collapsed. She picked it up with a handkerchief and put it in her bag, hoping it would somehow be a clue as to what might have happened. She also picked up my own bag before leaving the alley.
As Supergirl soared through the air with me in her arms, she contacted her sister through her comm, telling her to prepare the med bay.
She looked at me. My eyes were closed still and it looked like I was sleeping. Even though my heart was beating steadily, she hoped that I was okay.
"Hang in there, Abigail," she said to me. "I am not letting Lena lose someone she cares about."
So, what did you think? I'm not going to really follow the storyline of season 4, since there were moments I definitely could NOT accept. If you would like to see more and what happens next, please leave a review!
