The ride back to the DEO medbay shook up J'onn, Kara and Maggie. Kara and Maggie sat on either side of Alex, holding each of her hands, covered in her blood. J'onn stared at her in thought, trying to read her mind, trying to convince himself that she'd be okay, but she was too injured for him to even think that. So he just kept staring. Kara wished that she could fly her, but there was so much damage. The sight of her injured so badly, ragged breaths, shaking, all of the wires hooked up to her; it was something that they wouldn't forget. There were three IVs in her left arm: blood, fluids and a light sedative, an oxygen mask on her face and wires that monitored her heart.

"We're almost there Alex. Just hold on." Maggie thought back to the night Alex almost drowned. It was a worse fear this time around; the deep-seated worry in the pit of her stomach was too much to bear. The thought that she could lose her best friend, her family, her.

Then the monitor went erratically. Kara and Maggie let go of her hands and looked at her. Alex, the one who was always so tough, so brave, was losing an uphill fight.

"She's crashing!" The doctor's crowded around the co-director and J'onn took Kara and Maggie by their shoulders and moved them back.

"Pushing one of epi!"

"Starting her on manual ventilation!"

"J'onn let go of me!" Kara struggled to move, to get out of the martian's grip. "That's my sister! Stop!"

Maggie held Kara this time. "We can't do anything right now, Kara. We have to let them help her. We can't do this, we're not doctors. Look at me." Maggie was trained in crisis situations like these. No matter who was in distress, she knew how to keep it together.

Kara broke down, sobbing, fear of losing her sister. Maggie couldn't hold back and did the same. They held each other, not being able to look at the sight of their best friend being injected, resuscitated, fighting the clock.

Flatline.

"Alex!" Kara tried to escape Maggie and J'onn's grip again. Maggie looked on with fear.

"Charge to 200! Clear!" Nothing.

"Pushing another one of epi! Give her that blue vial over there." The medic injected some sort of light blue substance into Alex's veins.

"What is that stuff?" Maggie asked.

"It's Titanian medication Imra left us." J'onn looked on. "We've tried it before on others. It should help stabilize her heart, get it to a steady rhythm."

The trio looked on in agony. Still no signs of improvement. Why isn't it helping?

The doctors seemed to hear their thoughts. "Let's charge to 250. Clear!" A slow rhythm on the monitor drew sighs of relief from the three. "Okay she's back. Let's give her another round of fluids and hang up another unit of blood. Let's try this again." Another dose of the Titanian fluid was injected into her. "Alright team, monitor her closely. Right now she's stable."

As if the universe was playing a cruel trick on them, Alex suddenly arched her back on the table. Still unconscious, she broke into a cold sweat, heaving and moaning in pain. She was seizing at the high doses of medication as soft whimpers of pain filled the ambulance. Imra's drug was proven to be safe on humans, to have a stronger effect, but nothing seemed to help her. Even the sedatives didn't seem to work. The three could tell that she was fighting the pain, fighting to stay alive, fighting for the people she loved.

"She's crashing again! Okay, let's try this one." One of the doctors held up a red vial.

"That's Kryptonian. That'll kill her!" Kara looked on as they injected yet another thing into Alex's bloodstream.

"What is it?" Maggie looked at the red coursing through her veins.

"It's Rao Alleviant. It's risky, even for us. Supposed to be the medication of Rao, it's supposed to help the heart but it can be lethal."

"Don't worry, Kara. It's been diluted and we've used it dire situations like this before. It should kickstart where she needs to be."

Maggie held Kara, and they looked on. Steady beating. It stayed that way long enough to know that she was back.

"Good job everyone. Now Kara, Maggie, J'onn, we have to wait and see what happens. When we get into the DEO she needs an MRI, an X-Ray and a CT scan to see what damage he did. We'll do some blood panels and skin tests to see if we can get any traces of who did this to her out. Do you consent to doing a ra-"

"No. She doesn't need that." Maggie answered before the doctor could get her sentence out. There was no blood in that area, no trauma when she first checked her. "No one would do that to her."

"Alright. We're here. Let's move!"

J'onn, Kara and Maggie stood behind the moving stretchers. Maggie held Kara's arm in her own, making sure that her girlfriend's little sister was okay. Kara all completely forgot about Alex's plans of proposing, and Maggie forgot the whole reason she was looking for her in the first place.

Time had passed and Kara hadn't stopped pacing since her sister was taken away for tests. J'onn decided to get coffee and pastries, and Maggie made some calls to her captain as well as James. They would need to take some time off until Alex had woken up and healed and their bosses didn't hesitate one bit and to ask if they needed anything. James told Maggie that Guardian would be present during Supergirl's absence and she thanked him. J'onn had decided to continue directing the DEO, as he knew him and Alex both couldn't be out.

"Kara, Maggie, hi." Dr. Hamilton walked out to greet the two. She looked somber.

"Is she okay?" The two talked at the same time.

"Director Danvers suffered multiple traumas to the head, chest and abdomen. She has a concussion and broken legs. She's in stable condition, and we set her legs back and put them in braces. We don't know when she'll wake up yet though. J'onn said that you two saw her being kicked around before he got away?"

"Yeah, and as soon as Kara yelled something changed in him. He ran."

"I just can't believe it was him. He would never do that to Alex, or even to me." Kara's voice still quivered.

"It's going to take some time for us to get all of the results back. Before J'onn left, he scanned Alex's mind for any residual psychic activity. He couldn't find anything out of the ordinary. The concussion seems to have hindered his ability to read it, but he said if there was anything out of the ordinary that Alex saw, it would have came up. Unless there was some sort of barrier protecting Jeremiah's mind, I'm sorry to say it was fully him."

Kara closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her second father. The one who was always caring, always helping Kara control her powers, always there when she needed a shoulder to cry on. How could he do this? How could he do this to his child? She exhaled. "When can we go see her?"

"You can go in now if you'd like. She'll be okay. It's Alex Danvers we're talking about. It's going to take some time but she'll wake up. I can promise you that."

"Thanks Doc. Okay, Kara are you ready?" Maggie slowly guided her into the medbay.

Alex looked better. Her face was still swollen, taped with a breathing tube, but it was still her. The doctors had cleaned the blood off of her, got her out of her clothes and into a hospital gown. There were two braces on her legs, bandages wrapped around her torso.

Maggie was the first to walk into the room, and motioned for Kara to come through the doorway. They took a seat on either side of her and held her bruised hands. You'll be alright, Danvers. I love you. Maggie felt herself tear up, felt like the world was closing in on her, felt like someone tried to take her lifeline away from her.

Just hold on.

A/N - That was a hard chapter to write. I really didn't know a lot of the medical terms, as you probably can tell. I promise Alex will be okay in the end! Thanks for reading and your reviews again!
