A/N: A shout out to Jennifer Baratta. Glad you liked the chapter!

Chapter 15

"What have you got?" Kara asked J'onn in a whisper. The two were hiding high up in the trees so as not to be spotted by anyone who may be lurking in the surrounding forest.

"Movement in the forest and it's not a wild animal," he said keeping his own voice low. Kara used her x-ray vision to scour the nearby area. J'onn was right – multiple targets with high powered weapons. A voice popped into her ear via the comms,

"Supergirl, this is Agent Spinelli. We're only five minutes out."

"We don't have five minutes. I've got multiple bogeys coming in from the south of the compound with automatic weapons. Manhunter and myself will deal with them but things could get ugly. Warn the Secret Service and get here as quick as you can. The President and the other leaders need to get out of here," she responded.

"Yes ma'am," Spinelli responded.

"Shall we give them a little surprise?" Kara turned to her friend.

"Sounds like a plan," he winked and the two split up, heading for the figures that moved toward the President's cabin. They hadn't gotten far when a cry went up,

"It can't be!"

"Surprised to see me?" Kara smirked as she landed in front of them. As expected the three men opened fire with their weapons. The bullets bounced off of her just like always did many times before but she knew that something wasn't right. Her suit had come alive and it was protecting her body from the Kryptonite in the bullets. Perhaps they had figured on her cousin coming back to Earth or perhaps they were just being smart and using any bullets they could get their hands on. At any rate, when they realized the bullets weren't working, they dropped their weapons and tried to run but they would not get far as a familiar voice reached her ears.

"Hands up! You're under arrest!" The men quickly followed the orders as six DEO agents came out of the woods.

"Agent Spinelli?" Kara asked as the other five took custody of the men.

"Yes ma'am. I sent a team to assist Manhunter. The rest are combing the woods while the Secret Service handles the protection end of things. The Director will be here within an hour, seems they left shortly after you did but planes aren't as fast," the man smirked. He was about as tall as James but a little older and had a more of an olive skin tone. In the distance she could hear the engines of the President's motorcade as the cars sped away from the scene. A few more minutes and they'd be clear.

"Excellent work. Glad to have the assist. This seems like it can't be it though. Too little of a response for making this kind of move," the blonde frowned.

"Agreed. That's why I have the Secret Service's eyes in the sky scanning the area with the infrared cameras," Spinelli explained. He was nothing if not thorough. Kara was about to say something when the agent's radio crackled to life.

"Dirt bikes heading in fast toward the compound from the west!" Supergirl took off in the direction indicated by the Secret Service helicopter. She could hear the sound of their engines and within seconds, she'd cut the bike out from under the first rider by flying straight into the side of the vehicle. The second saw just what happened and pulled up short. Standing up, she faced the second rider, who was obviously a female.

"Mercy, give up. No one needs to get hurt," Kara said. The rider pulled off her helmet and said,

"You're harder to kill than I thought."

"I do what I can," the blonde smirked. She then saw a look on Mercy's face that she couldn't place.

"Good thing I have more than one trick up my sleeve then," Mercy went into her coat pocket and pulled out something that wasn't much bigger than a hockey puck. Kara lunged at her but not before the woman activated the object in her hand. A pulse shot out and everything electronic within a one mile radius stopped working, including the nanites which protected Supergirl.
