Final episode but they end up staying together.
"Will you make it to the wedding?" Asked Kara while smiling. Mon El replied "Um.. No. After Brainy connects with the big brain I'm going to be really busy." Kara looked at the grass below her feet and mumbled "Oh". Mon El continued "A.. Actually, with brainy and the legion being so busy I don't think I'll ever be in this lifetime again".
Those words broke Karas heart as well as Mon Els. Kara cleared her throat, trying to fight back tears. They stood there for a moment wishing that things could be different. Mon el opened his mouth but nothing came out.
"When will you leave?" Asked Kara who was trying to pretend like everything was normal. "Soon, I um... In an hour or so" Said Mon el while nodding his head. "Can you not stay a little while longer? I mean you can leave anytime now and go to any point in the future, right?" Asked Kara. "Brainy's going to be quite persistent about leaving." Said Mon el. He looked into her comets, at the tears forming at the bottoms of them. It broke his heart to see her sad. It hurt him even more knowing that he was the cause of her suffering.
"You know what I might just be able to persuade him. I'll ask him." Said Mon el with a reassuring look. Kara smiled and tucked her hair behind her ear. "You're amazing" said Kara. "Really? You think?" asked Mon el jokingly.
"Really... I, uh. Before I met you I didn't admit it to anyone but I felt empty. I saw my life as one of tragedy and sadness. But after, my story, my life was full of happiness and love. You changed my outlook on everything. You made me see that Kara was worth it. That she deserved the same amount of love as supergirl...Sometimes I wished I hadn't taught you how to be a superhero 'cause then you wouldn't have been as selfless and you would of chose to stay." Said Kara seriously with tears.
The final embers of the yellow sun bounced off them and the beautiful landscape. The light breeze flowed through their hair. Mon el put his hands on his hips and looked at the landscape for a moment. He shook his head as tears began to fall. He looked at her and said "I think the world hates us two. Every time we were in a good place something happened. The atmosphere was seeded with lead. The future needed me. Mxapidalic or whatever you call him". They both gave a little smile at the memories they had shared together.
Kara looked out at the view. Her soft lips trembled. She began to breakdown. She tried to stay dignified but her emotions enveloped her. She wiped her tears away but more took their place. She place her hands on her hips as her body quaked from her cries. She wasn't a loud crier but a silent one. She pierced her lips together.
Mon El went in for a hug. He set one of his hands on her waist and the other on her shoulder. He wrapped his hand around her neck and soft hair. He scrunched her hair gently as he pulled Kara in closer to his embrace. She put her hand on his hair and played with his ear slowly. Mon el looked at Alex and Winn who were talking in the distance. "I don't know who I would have been if I hadn't met you and this amazing family. I probably would still been a jerk... I wouldn't be happy." Said Mon el quietly while still holding Kara.
At Kara's apartment
They had all decided to go back to Kara's. It was always their main spot when meeting up. It was almost the heart of the family, but that was because of who lived there not particularly because of the architecture.
Alex and Kelly had arrived first.. Alex was driving. She let herself in with her keys and they both took their coats off. They fell onto the couch without a word. Everyone was drained from the day they had had. Kelly put her head on Alex's shoulder and Alex softly kissed the top of Kelly's head.
This peace was shortly lived with the arrival of Winn, J'onn, Nia, Brainy and James. They had little conversation as they waited on Kara. They didn't know what to say. Alex was almost deafened by the silence. The place where thoughts could be as loud as lions. She didn't want to cry so she went over to the kitchen away from everyone else to get some air. She looked at her family and inhaled. She rubbed her eyes and grabbed a beer from the fridge.
Just then the door opened. Kara came in with flowers that had been from the funeral. She didn't want them to go to waste. She wanted to get as much out of their lives as possible. Mon El followed, carrying even more flowers than Kara. He closed the door with his foot and set the flowers on the kitchen table except for one vase that he put on the coffee table in the living room. Kara loved how thoughtful that was and wore a small smile.
Everyone greeted them. Winn said "I'm glad you decided to stay for dinner." They all agreed. James then asked" Wait, who got dinner?". They all had a moment of realization. They looked round at each other dumbly." No one got dinner, wow" Said Kelly. Nia gave a little chuckle. "Ahh I'm so sorry." Said Kara. "Where would be opened at this time of the night?" Asked James as it was 12:30 or so.
"I know a place" Said Lena mysteriously while raising an eyebrow. No one had noticed Lena come in as they were overcome with hunger. "Yes our saviour!" Shouted Kara dramatically while giving Lena a hug. Winn clapped his hands and Nia jumped up and down giddily. Brainy stared at her and laughed.
Their dinner had been delivered and had been devoured by a swarm of starving superheros. It cost $87.98 and they all had a disagreement over who would pay. It was so normal, a family fighting over who would pay for dinner. Lena ended up winning and buying it all. Although Lena was a millionaire they still felt bad about taking her money. "Your such a gentleman Lena. In the future it is just assumed that everyone would pay for the meal they ate. It's fair but.. I don't know." Said Mon El seriously.
Kara giggled and said "I remember when I brought you flowers and a coffee home and you said I was a gentleman. It was really funny and cute". Everyone laughed and they explained to Mon el that people usually only referred to a person as a gentleman if they were a man. "I like when you say it" Said Kara while giggling.
Kara and Mon El where on different couches but couldn't stop looking at each other. It was as if no one else existed, they quieted and all that was, was passionate stares. Stares that lasted 2 seconds but lasted a lifetime. During those 2 seconds their oxygen disappeared. It took all their attention.
Kara's thoughts lingered on Mon El. The regrets of the way she had treated him. She took him for granted and he was worth so much more than that. Even when things got tough on him, he was always the one holding her. Her breath quickened.
Across from her sat a daxamite who thought the same thoughts and felt the same feelings. His feelings ambushed him so he had to make a quick escape. "I... I'm just going to the bathroom" Muttered Mon El quickly as he stood up. Everyone looked up for a moment and carried on with their previous conversations.
Kara had found this odd as they needed to stop on their way home because he needed to pee, that's why they had arrived late. She thought that maybe her looks and glances were making him uncomfortable. They were only friends afterall. She zoned out in thought and heard something weird. She hadn't meant to focus in on Mon El, it was an accident but she heard him crying in the bathroom with her superhearing.
As Mon El closed the door he fell the the ground. He didn't know something like a missed love could hit him this hard. The only times he had felt this suffocating feeling was when he lost his planet and family. It wasn't like kara died? He didn't know how to handle these feelings. All he was able to think about all day was her. Her giggles, smile, voice...A battle against superman wouldn't be as hard as this. He.. He loved her but he brought himself out of this thought. Kara didn't love him. She doesn't feel the same way he thought. His cry was quiet. It wasn't usually quiet, it was normally loud and emotion full but he couldn't let anyone hear him.
He pulled himself up and looked into the mirror. His read eyes. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He wiped his eyes and padded them dry with his hand. He didn't look well rested by any means but he thought he could just write it off as being a long and sad day.
Kara saw Mon El and wanted to lighten the mood. She didn't want his last memory of her to be sad or full of tears."I know a game we could play, you turn on Alexa and ask her to play a random song. We go round in turns and say who the song is for that song is from you to them. It's really funny!" Exclaimed Kara while standing up and turning on Alexa.
"I'll go first!" Said Kelly. "This one's for Alex" Added Kelly after kissing Alex and the hand like royalty. 'Sleeping on the floor' Came on from the lumineers. "Aww" Said Alex as she kissed Kelly. "I mean that is just perfect, I love this song!" Said Kelly as there was a break in the vocals.
"Next up, Brainy!" Shouted James as he opened his beer. "Uh, I choose Nia because it seems that the trend is we are picking people we love." Explained Brainy as he put his hands on Nia's. She gave a youthful laugh as the song began. ' Hall of fame'. "Yesss!" Yelled Winn. Winn began sending it, singing. Kara and James gave back round vocals. Mon El added a little beet boxing. J'onn got up and pulled out his killer dance moves. Lena just couldn't stop laughing. Nia gave a couple claps to the mix. They all BLASTED the "HALL OF Fame" line every single time. As the song ended they broke out laughing.
"Oh god I feel pressure coming off that song, um I choose Mon el!" Shouted Kara quickly while still coming off the hype of the previous song. 'Strong Enough' by Haim came on. "Jeez, these are all such good songs!" Said J'onn. Kara took lead in singing this song. "... Lie to me but please don't leave..." Sang Kara beautifully. She kept looking at Mon El. Lena even joined in which wasn't like her. Alex pretended to play electric guitar and Kelly did the same. The atmosphere was magic. Pure energy and fun. Like collage but with slightly less alcohol... Probably.
James chose Lena and got 'Loosing my religion'.
"I'm going to choose papa bear" Said Winn while smiling. J'onn took Winn into a big 'bear' hug and whispered jokingly "Thanks for picking me, I was scared no one was going to". He got 'Jar of hearts'. They all laughed at the song and played it up all night.
Then it came to Mon El, he was the next one up and didn't know if you where aloud to pick the person who picked you. "Kara, is that okay if I say her?" Asked Mon El. "Of course!" Said Lena who had played this game with Kara countless times. 'When I was your man' by Bruno Mars. "Okay, this is your time to shine Mon El, take it away!" Shouted Winn. "Guys I don't sing!" Shouted Mon El while smiling. Everyone shouted come on to him but all he could hear was kara's voice saying " You're a great singer, I remember when you sung to me!". He took a sip of his beer then dramatically cleared his throat. They all cheered."... I should've bought you flowers and held your hand, gave you all my time when I had the chance. Take you to every party cause all you really wanted to do is dance." She smiled at him. He meant those words. This was the perfect song for him. "... I'll be the first to say that I was wrong. I know im probably much too late to try to apologise for my mistakes but I just want you to know. I hope he buys you flowers, I hope he holds you hand..."
"Woo! That was amazing!" Shouted everyone. Mon El didn't know how good he was at singing. Nia, not knowing their full history suggested "OMG, Mon El and Kara should do a duet. That would be great. You're both really great singers!". Mon El and Kara looked at each other hesitantly and Kara was the first one to say, "Yes we should, what song though?"
They put their thinking caps on. They said many songs until Kara asked, "If the world was ending?". They put the music on and Mon El took the 'mic', which was actually a bottle of beer. Then Kara started with the other 'mic' which was a fork. When their voices intertwined it sounded like harmony. Everyone else stayed quiet. "If the world was ending you'd come over right.." And as the last words left their mouths the cheering and clapping began but all they looked at was each other. No smiling just eyes locked in together. Mon El broke eye contact to look down and then James patted him on the shoulder.
The rest of the night carried on the same with everyone doing duets and solos and messing around. Drinking cold, crisp beer and cheers. Speeches and games. Secrets and laughs. It was one of the nights that last forever and the one of the nights you remember forever.
The day had been hard and energy sucking, the night fun and lively. Everyone was knackered and the first to go was Brainy and Nia. Nia could barely keep her eyes open during normal circumstances so she had been lucky she had stayed awake that long. They said goodbyes and away they were. Kara was sad because she knew once the first people its not long before the next and next leave. That would mean she would have to say goodbye soon and that terrified her.
Many more bottles were opened in between when Nia and Brainy left and when Kelly left. Alex decided to stay on a while longer. Kelly had a headache and was really tired. They kissed and she left.
Then the night took a really weird turn. The (...'slightly' drunk) friends decided they wanted to go to a bar. Walked around the city. Keep in mind it 1:00 in the morning. They all stumbled down the hallway and into the elevator. Kara and Mon El had been drinking special beer that actually effects them but they weren't that drunk. The others on the other hand were seeing rainbows in the sky and tripping over curbs.
They walked round the city for a while then walked into the new pub. It was teeming with young things. Kara and Mon El felt slightly like the overbearing parents who followed their kids everywhere. Alex and Winn obviously being their children. They hadn't even noticed that J'onn had headed home when they left the apartment. And James and Lena were doing their own thing.
It wasn't as if Kara and the Daxamite were miserable but they sort of wanted to remember the night instead of regret it so they pulled of the beer train quite early on. They met some really fun characters and enjoyed letting loose for once.
Lena started to get harassed by these two dicky men. They didn't know who she was. She was tempted to call her security and get them thrown out of the bar, but she didn't. Somehow, to her, knowing that she could do that with a tap of a button was enough. It felt satisfying that she held all the power and they didn't even know it. Of course, when she didn't give them anything, they moved on to another woman. Lena was seeing this and knew that if she didn't call her security that one of her friends would start a scrap. And given that all her friends were superstrong powerful people, she didn't want to see that happen.
Somehow Lena was still so smart and level headed, maybe even more so when she was drunk. The night continued until both Winn and Alex had been sick on the corner of the street. James dashed out of there running because he was already about to boke before some appeared as street art on the ground. He ran, pulling Lena along with him. She screamed the whole way down the street as his pace was hard to keep up with. And that was the last of James and Lena for the rest of the night... They ended up sharing the same booze smelling sheets.
Mon El and Kara literally carried Alex and Winn to Alex's apartment and dumped them. They gave custody of them to a half awake Kelly. They boked many times after that and regretted every shot they had took.
Then it was just Kara and Mon El. The whole night up to that point had been busy and loud but it turned quiet when it was just those two. They returned to their previous depressing thoughts.
As they walked along the quiet street their hands brushed against each other. They pulled away simultaneously and looked opposite ways. She thought about it and Kara put her hand back down, inviting Mon El to do the same. Mon El looked at her subtle invitation and nervously accepted. As their hands joined, their lives suddenly seemed more colourful and passionate, joyous and complete,... Loving and hopeful.
The air was crisp and the faint smell of beer lingered softly upon their wanting lips. Her eyes were tired, yet as blue as ever. The warmth coming from her hands made him crazy. The little sounds of sleeping nature rang out in beautiful refrains.
They said nothing, just walked and enjoyed the time with each others quiet. He caressed her finely manicured fingers. When there are many of drunk people around, it's hard to appreciate all the little touches and things.
They came to a little oasis in the middle of the city, trees and a lovely and great pond. The only reason you could tell there was a pond there was because of the slight reflections of the city lights in the rippling water. The trees blew in the wind yet the cold was surrendering for a softer feeling. They stood there for a moment, both staring endlessly at the moving water. The tiny sound of water dancing.
They, for that time, where all there was in the world. No war or sadness. No universe. Life on different planets and even the apartment blocks next door ceased to exist.
Kara turned to him, smiling and whispered "perfection". Mon El turned to her and looked into her eyes. "I, I..." Whispered Mon El while tearing up again. "I have to go to the future tommorow, I promised.. I" Mon El couldn't finish his sentence. Kara pulled him in for a hug. She played with his ear as he smelt her hair. They didn't just want each other, they needed each other.
"If.. I lay here. If I just lay here, would you lie with me and just forget... The world. Forget what you're told, before we get too old." Sang Kara softly and slowly into his ear. She stopped singing as a lump in her throat appeared. Tears fell as they clung to each other." Can we just pretend, just for one night, please? "Asked Mon El quietly yet desperately.
Kara pulled away slightly so she was looking into his eyes. Her heart thumped as did his. She nodded passionately and lunged in for a kiss.
Hearts.. Exploded
Their lips smashed together. Her hand held his head. His hands grabbed her waist and pulled with the might of the gods. Their hearts were beating at superspeed. Their tears wiped away from their kissing. She pushed him against the fence with her passion.
As they began to slow, she put her arms over Mon El's shoulders. She fiddled with her fingers. He released his tight grip on her waist and just set his hands on her back. Their kisses were more organised and slow although the passion was as much as the start. He smiled in between kisses.
They then placed their foreheads together. Smiles took over their joyous faces. They were speechless. The dark shadows that lay across their faces did not represent how they felt inside. This moment was perfect. Mon El moved closer and Kara gave him another long, meaningful kiss.
Mon El looked her dead in the comets, grabbed her hand and ran along the path. They didn't say much, only the celdum giggle as they ran along like teenagers. Within minutes they reached Kara's building. They kissed in the elevator then ran to Kara's apartment.
As they rushed in the door she squealed as he pushed her up against the wall. As they were kissing she unbuttoned his shirt. The place was a mess from earlier but they didn't give a fuck. "Oh. I love you!" Yelled Mon El without thinking. He stopped kissing her as he realized what he had said and pulled back a bit. "I love you way fucking more, now get back here!". Shouted Kara.
She pulled his collar and shoved him against the door. They kissed vigorously and slipped off their shoes. He picked her up and walked to the couch. A beer can was knocked over but they didn't notice because they were soo captured by each other. He took off his trousers and threw them so hard it nearly smashed the window.
One by one their clothes were taken off. "I couldn't stop.. Thinking about.. You" Exclaimed Mon El in between kisses. "Me too". Said Kara as she got up and lead Mon El to the bed. He kissed her hand as she walked. They slowed down once again and both sat on the bed and smooched. They fell backwards and well...*~*~*~* You know the rest
Afterwards they were breathless even though they weren't supposed to be able to get out of breath. Mon El lay staring at Kara's fluttering eyelashes. She was going in and out of sleep yet a faint smile remained on her face. Kara wrapped her legs in between Mon Els. She touched his arms. He sighed in pleasure. Kara's skin was soo soft as Mon el got to discover. Mon El moved his head closer so that they were both on the same pillow. He caressed her red cheeks and held her chin while giving her a cheeky kiss.
He developed a sinking feeling as he remembered he had to leave. He tried to banish those thoughts and absorb all the time he had left with her but they kept creeping back up. He couldn't get to sleep.
He looked at the angel sleeping besides him and guilt came to the forefront. He had decided over a lot of thinking that he would write her a note and leave early in the morning. He wrote:
I'm sorry, I love you but I have to go. I feel sad and I know you will feel horrible. I'm sorry. You're amazing. I love all your family. Last night was amazing, all of it.
You are my kryptonite and always make me feel vulnerable. You made me a into a good man somehow and showed me the world. I could never write everything I feel about you so on the back of this I wrote a list of songs. When words fail... Listen to them, I'm sorry.
Love you always Mon El
He put his head against the backboard. His heart was soo heavy. He knew where he went she could not follow. He sat there for a while then kissed a sleeping Kara on the forehead. He left the note on the side table and left. He tried to remember every detail of her and her home.
The next morning
As her eyes awoke she giggled remembering the night before. She reached out blindly searching for his face and warmth. She opened her comets as she found no sign of him. She thought he could be up making breakfast so she fell asleep for 2 extra minutes. This bad feeling was knawing at her so she decided to go see where he was.
As she walked around the stinking apartment she grew more and more worried. Then she spotted it... The note and her heart sank. It wasn't the type of note you leave when you're going out to the shops, it was the type of goodbye notes you see in movies. She knew before even reading the note that he had left. She rushed and put on a top and t-shirt.
At the DEO
As Kara flew in the entrance she searched for any familiar faces. J'onn had just finished the mornings briefing and was pacing around the floor. "J'onn!" She yelled from across the DEO. J'onn nearly jumped out of his skin and ran to Kara. He assumed something was very bad. "Is Mon el still here?" Asked a desperate Kara.
"Yes, I think I saw him 5 minutes ago, going that way" Replied a confused J'onn. With every face she ran by that wasn't Mon El's, she got more and more aggravated. She was thinking of the words she was going to say to him, asking him to stay. Even if he couldn't she just needed one last kiss to remember him. Their was soo many things she needed to say to Mon El. She needed him to know that she didn't just love him but that he was the love of her life.
Under neath it all was a girl who loved a boy... The connection they had was natural and unprompted. She knew that there would be judgy agents looking at her and her unbrushed hair but she didn't give a damb. This man made her 5crazy. It was a cold morning and rain was thrashing down. Everyone's hair was wet and there was a certain bad feeling about the day.
As she paced along the corridors, her blonde hair racing behind her, she spotted Alex. She couldn't find him anywhere but Alex would definitely know where he was. "Where's Mon El?" Asked Kara. "What do you mean where's Mon El?"Asked a puzzled big sister. Kara shook her head in confusion. She raised her eyebrows as if to be asking again. "Kara he left, did he not say goodbye to you?" Asked Alex. "... No..." Said Kara quietly. He already left and was a thousand years away.
She zoned out and started walking home. Alex asked if she was okay but she couldn't hear her. Her breathing slowed and meaningless tears appeared in her eyes. She didn't feel happiness nor sadness. Just numb.
As she walked home in the pouring rain she didnt walk faster because of the water. She couldn't feel coldness or any warmth coming from anything, including herself. She kept her head down as she walked in the puddles. It was out of character for her. It was the first time she had ever had this feeling, or lack there of. It was worse than feeling sad or angry. As the rain ran down her forehead to her eyes, nose then lips, she didn't wipe it off or even notice it.
She walked up the steps, getting the elevator would mean lifting her hand out of her pocket to press the button and she didn't have the energy for that. She remorsely thought about the things she had blamed him for and how selfish she had been to him as her emotions began to return. When she closed her door and turned to see the mess of her house, that's when she broke. It wasn't the main reason she burst but it was the tipping point.
Kara's apartment
"Nooo.." Wailed Kara while on her knees. She was overcome with emotion and needed to punch something! She grabbed a vase of flowers from the kitchen and threw it across the room. It smashed onto the floor. "Ahhh! " She cried as she crumpled down into a ball on the grubby floor. She cried, cried, cried then went onto her bed and cried. She cried herself to sleep.
Two hours later, when she woke she lay staring at the ceiling. When she finally built up the energy to read the note, she grabbed it with her middle and index fingers. She exhaled heavily before reading it. '... I wrote a list of songs... "As soon as she read that she knew that was what she needed. It said:
Long drives - Boywithuke
Every little thing she does is magic- Sleeping at last
Bright side(acoustic) - The lumineers
I didn't know - Sofia Carson
Thousand years - Cristina perri
July (feat. Leon Bridges) - Noah Cyrus
If the world was ending
I'm yours - Jason Maraz
When I was your man
Talk tonight - Oasis
So much more. Just know I'll be listening to these songs.
She listened to everyone of the songs and cried an impossible amount. Their taste in music were similar so she loved those songs. She called in sick to work and all she did that day was listen to the beautiful songs.
2 weeks later
Everyone were getting on with their lives... Except Kara. She hadn't went out except to get food. She took leave from work and from being supergirl, much to the dismay of J'onn. Her apartment was still a mess and more things had been smashed. She began having fluxuating emotions. Today she happened to be okay. She decided to take the lunge and clean up. She knew she wouldn't feel this good tommorow.
She got out of bed at 11 which was early for her now. She got a shower and put comfy clothes on. She stood in front of the mirror, done her teeth and put her hair up in messy bun. She turned Alexa up all the way which was now custom and played the tunes.
She started by opening her blinds to let the light in. It was a very hopeful day for her. She opened the windows and breathed in the fresh air. '.. Thinking' bout that one night when the world caught on fire... Life just don't hit same, I have a migraine. My friends all over the place have their life straight... 'Muttered Kara. She had memorised the words from how many times she had listened to it. "I can't do these long drives, sitting in the back seat. Thinking about that one night." The sun dropped in to say hello just as the words sang, " sun on your face". She smiled and danced around the place.
She grabbed the spilled beer can as the song ' Every little thing she does is magic' came on. It reminded her of Mon El. She smiled. That was the first time she had smiled while remembering him. She put all of the rubbish in a black bag. She looked at the clothes littered around. Tears developed in her eyes while still smiling and dancing around. She had been really struggling since he left. She never thought she was the type of person who cried for weeks about another person unless they were dead.
She was really getting into cleaning and jamming out to her songs. She washed and hoovered the floors. Made her bed. Cleaned the mirrors and windows. She cleaned the kitchen. Re-organised a few things. She stepped back and was happy with her apartment, it wasn't perfect but it was perfect to her. She grabbed a nice spray and sprayed it everywhere.
It took her about two hours. She wanted to stay on that high so she decided to organise lunch/dinner with Lena. Kara got a shower, put on a nice pair of jeans, one of Mon Els tops but she styled it so it looked really good, a small chain necklace, a couple rings, beautiful and simple gold earrings to match the rest of her jewellery, a pair of DMs and her same messy bun. She grabbed her coat and of course her earphones.
At a cafe
As Kara approached the quaint, little cafe she spotted not one, but two of her most favourite people. "James! I didn't know you were coming!" Said kara, the surprise blaintly portrayed in her voice. It was an outdoor cafe located in one of the newer parts of the city. It was a warm day so Kara took her coat off and put it at the back of her chair. " You didn't? " Asked a puzzled James. He looked at Lena and she gave an awkward smile. "Oops I forgot to tell her" Said Lena even though everyone knew she had planned for it to be like that.
James cleared his throat then said "Urh, we've got something to tell you." Lena then took over and blurted out "Were dating!". Kara was surprised but not really shocked. Their chemistry was strong. "Yay!" She shouted while giving them a hug. A waiter came over and asked for their orders. "2 coffees and a..." Said James, answering for both of them. He looked at Kara. " Oh, um can I have a tea please." Answered Kara. The waiter nodded then walked away.
"So what have you been up to? We haven't talked in forever!" Exclaimed Lena. "Not much to be honest" Said Kara while thinking of everything she wanted to tell Lena about. Sleeping with Mon El. He leaving without a goodbye. Her feeling depressed and under the weather most days. Her mental breakdown when she threw her phone at her TV and smashed both things about a week ago. Not talking to anyone and feeling lonely. Yet, all she muttered was those five words.
"Oh come on! When has Kara ever been up to nothing, come on spill the tea!" Giddily said Lena. Luckily the waiter came just in time to save Kara from that conversation. As the waiter set the things down on the fashionable little table, they all said their thank yous.
Kara dove into her tea and finished it in 2 minutes." Wow, impressive" Said James and Lena rolled her eyes playfully. Kara smiled but behind it was a sadness looming, as she had remembered that walk with Mon el and all the suggestive glances. As she tried to suppress her forthcoming frown a headache started to appear. Now, Kara whom had never really had any pains anywhere before unless injured, found this jarring and scary.
"Another cup?" Asked the waiter who had noticed the empty mug. "Oh um... No, ah no thanks" Muttered Kara. "Really, you look like you could take another cup?" Said the waiter kindly. "I said no" Said an annoyed Kara. The waiter was surprised by her sudden change in attitude and said "Oh sorry, ah sorry". The waiter then walked away awkwardly.
"Kara, what was that about?" Asked a confused Lena. "I said no and she wouldn't leave me alone" Said Kara while side eyeing the waiter. "Are you okay Kara? You seem off" Said James while reaching over to touch Kara's arm. "I'm fine!" Said Kara loudly while pulling away from James.
Kara could see the waiter gossiping about her to all the workers. Everything, all of a sudden annoyed her for no reason. Kara herself noticed this. The slurping of the cokes by the people adjacent to her. The kids walking by who where dragging their feet along the pavement. The baby who wouldn't shut up. The sun instantly too sunny.
"Guys I think I'm going to get going" Said an overwhelmed Kara. " What?" Asked James. Then Lena added, "Yeah you've only been here for like five minutes!" Are you okay? "." Would people just please stop asking me that!" Shouted Kara as she snapped. "Kara I don't know what's gotten into you but I'm not liking it!" Shouted Lena. .
"Just stop" Said Kara while getting up and grabbing her bag. Lena scoffed and ordered "James come on were leaving". James didn't say a word and just blindly followed Lena. Kara gave her a dirty look and walked off.
1000 years later
"YOU OKAY?!?!" Asked a screaming Mon El. A another bomb went off as Winn responded "Fine, is everyone else okay?!". "I'M Okay!" Shouted a tired Imra. "You okay Sam?" Asked a concerned Mon El. Ten seconds went by until Winn screamed "SAM ARE YOU OKAY?"
Sam was the new member of the legion. They were from Parlo, a planet neighbouring our solar system. They could jump really high and had x-ray vision. Their ear piece broke and that was why Sam wasnt answering them. They were fighting a war like soldiers.
The war was caused by the still current anti-alien groups. The technology had progressed so much and really powerful machinery was produced to be bought by the average person. So much so that they had weapons capable of hurting aliens. They had made an army and were attacking Europe which had around a 40-60 to human alien population. It had signed treaties and document in arournd the 2070s, to forge peace with aliens. Other countries had done similar but none had been as successful as in the continent of Europe. They were the most central place for refuges and was very peaceful until countries like America that had grew more anti-alien attacked it.
America grew more anti-alien as Europe grew more pro-alien due to the people who believed in such things moving to the country that held their beliefs. The world grew more sectioned and hostile. They had solved and stopped climate change once it so got so bad that the ignorant couldn't ignore, even breath without noticing. There continued to be a strain of intelligent people who solved the problems, no stress.
The Americas had sought war and started the war in 3005. There was around 109,000,000 casuallties already. The world was being torn apart.
5 hours later
Mon El and the legion had successfully rescued captured soldiers on American soil and where taking refuge in an old, forgotten bunker that as built by the opposing army at the start of the war. Unfortunately during the mission two of the captured soldiers were shot down.
One, being Sam's best friend Cara. Cara was forty-two and had been fighting for nearly 15 years. She had saved around 503 aliens from death and was highly respected.
Sam was sitting, staring at the wall. Their eyes scarred with the sight of their best friend being shot in the back of the head. She didn't even die instantly which was disturbing. They watched as her eyes slowly crystallised.
"I'm soo sorry Sam. She was a great soldier and woman." Said Mon el while sitting down next to them. "She w.. As" Cried Sam while trying to suppress their tears. Sam looked at Mon El and hugged him breaking down even more when they were securely in the hug.
Just then, the radio said "Breaking news, information regarding Americas secret weapon are leaked but are quickly erased, who saw these plans? We can only hope that this person will be alive to tell us what they saw". Sam squinted their eyes in confusion, "Wait wasn't that the side mission Winn was working on?" Everyone had a realization. " The son of a bitch done it!" laughed Mon El.
Winn came running into the room screaming" GUYS WE HAVE TO GO, I GOT THE PLANS BUT THEY TRACKED US, THERE GOING TO RAIN FIRE! ". Everyone jumped up and grabbed the bare minimum. They ran across the abliterated terrain and onto their ship." Isn't our mission still incomplete?" Shouted Sam as the doors closed. Then the whole base was exploded by a bomb. The shock waves sent shivers down Sam's back. "Oh" Said Sam. " Yeah, we aren't going back to finish the mission" Said Winn while looking at the rubble. "Ship, set coordinates for home base" Ordered Mon El as the ship sped off.
1000 years earlier
It had been a week since the incident at the coffee shop and Kara felt awful. Both because she was developing migraines and pains but also because of her behaviour. She didn't know what had come over her that day, she must of been in a mood? But why all of a sudden? She had had a good day up until that point. She didn't know what was wrong with her.
She didn't want to go to Alex and upset her and plus she didn't want to wreck the married couple's first few months together. She went on with her days as usual. Going to work and getting typing cramps somehow, doing supergirl when she had the time. Going home and falling into bed from tiredness. Since Mon El left it had felt like she was hit by a planet.
As she walked into the DEO she was bumbarded by an onslaught of burgerlries and guns in her face. "A burglary on 29th" Shouted J'onn while giving her more cuffs as she had ran out of the rest. She nodded and whizzed out the door.
A shop
There appeared to be five burglars trying to rob a convenience store. Usually when bad guys saw her they would say" Uh shit" under their breaths try to run even though they knew they would be catched. They wouldn't try shoot as they knew it would do nothing but on this occasion the burglars shot for some reason. Kara didn't bother dodge as she thought it would bounce off her.
As the bullet made contact with her it felt different. It peirced her! "Uohha" Muttered a shocked Kara. Even the bad guys seemed to be shocked. Their eyes popped out of their skulls. One of the other ones shot at her again while she was still disoriented by the pain. She had two wounds, one on her shoulder and the other on her thigh. Her eyes went blury as she flew unorganisedly to the DEO.
She smashed down and cracked the DEO ground. The DEO agents were confused why supergirl was lying crumpled on the ground on a random Wednesday because they hadn't seen the blood yet."Supergirl!" Screamed a scared and confused sister.
"Alex!" Shouted Kara who was feeling those same feelings. The crowd had caught J'onn's eye so he ran to it and pushed passed it. What he saw scared the soul out of him.
His indestructible and impenetrable daughter lying in a pool of her own blood. He was speechless. "Uh.. Um, doctor, GET A DOCTOR!" Screamed J'onn trying to stay calm but it was no use, he was freaking out. The DEO doctors rushed by them with a stretcher.
The rest was a complete blur for everyone. Kara had passed out from the pain and stress of it all and she was getting stabbed what it felt like, everyother second with green needles. Kara and J'onn had been advised to step away as they might have caused more panic than help, and of course they were right.
10 hours later
As Kara's eyes awoke a yellow sun light blinded her. She tried to lift her arm up to shade her face from the light but as soon as she moved her arm she screamed "Ahh!". A throbbing appeared all over her body and a sharp pain attacked her, rooting from her shoulder.
All of a sudden she remembered what had happened. She was freaking out internally but on the outside she was frozen. Not moving a muscle, scared that it would hurt even more. Her head stuck looking at the plain wall. No one was there and she felt so alone. She imagined Mon El coming through the door. Him hugging her and making all her pain go away. Her holding him and never letting go.
The room warmed as she pictured him dancing around the room to a silly song, trying to raise her spirits. Him singing quietly in her ear as he sat besides her on the bed. She humming along too. Him caressing her blonde hair.
Grey returned to the room as Mon El disappeared into the air. Tears dripped off her chin. Her heart sore with the weight of the impossibility of her what ifs. Some moments, especially if she was alone would pull the rug from under her and she would fall into a pit of sadness.
"You're awake" Said Alex cheerfully yet quietly. "How are you feeling?" Asked Alex as she checked Kara's stats. "I... I miss him soo much." Said Kara while diving into Alex's arms. It hurt like hell but she didn't notice it under the piles of cries. "Who?" Asked a vastly confused Alex.
The room was warm and muggy with the lights so Alex opened the window to an avalanche of wind. Kara continued to sobb. "What are you talking about Kara?" Inquired Alex. "Him, he, I love him" Muttered Kara in between her cries. Alex was completely tooken a back. Kara didn't say she loved anyone. She never even said she had met someone. Alex sat on the chair next to Kara and asked an upset Kara, " Who do you love?".
Alex maybe thought she had hurt her head somehow or maybe a blood clot because Kara wasn't talking any sense. Kara took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "... Mon El..." Said Kara. Alex was shocked. "What? How are you in love with him?" asked Alex.
"You wanna know how I know I'm in love with him?... I was literally just shot and I haven't even asked how or if I'm okay because all I can think about is him! I stay up night after night, imagining a world where he's here with me. I love him so much it gives me migraines! Every song I listen to reminds me of him and all I want to do is listen to them with him. The way he smiles is all I ever see when I close my eyes. At night I dream about him and we're walking down a city street instead of a field. And we hold hands. We say absolutely nothing but it is still better than any conversation I could have in the real world!" Cried Kara.
Alex looked at her distraught baby sister. At her stitches and bruises. At her blue eyes and blonde hair that had been stained by her blood. The tears drowning Kara.
"I had no idea you were going through this. I know it was hard for you to see Mon El go but I didn't think it was this tough on you." Said Alex while beginning to tear up. "That's the thing Alex, I didn't see him go, he just left. All he left me was a note. He didn't wake me up to say goodbye. He just walked away! And right now he's., he's a... A thousand years away!" Said Kara.
"What do you mean wake you up and leave you a note?" Asked a completely lost Alex. "After we dropped you and Winn of at Kelly's house, we.. We had a, walk. We. I he, we kissed and he slept at mine, we slept together" Said Kara honesty . Alex's heart broke for her sisters. "I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want to be a downer on you and Kelly. You deserve to have your own problems together, not mine." Said Kara while wiping her tears off with the pillow.
"I'm your sister, if you ever have a problem you come to me! Do you hear me?" Asked a crying Alex. They hugged and Kara nodded. This was somehow, the hardest thing Kara had ever went through.
20 minutes later
After Kara had been checked and they had gotten most of their tears out Kara asked," So how did I get shot, was it a kryptonite bullet?" "We don't know how, but it was a normal bullet. Just lead, nothing else." Answered Alex.
As soon as Alex said lead, Kara had an idea of what could be wrong with her. It terrified her but it made sense. "So when can I get out of here?" Asked Kara. "Uh, after we find out how it happened and make sure you're alright you should be able to get out of here in a couple days"Said Alex
" No more needles thought"Said Kara looking down at the kryptonite in her arm.
"But Kara we need to run tests" Said a sympathetic Alex. "Please" Asked Kara. "Okay" Said her defeated sister. "Do you know what would cause this?" Questioned Alex. "Um...yeah, I might" Said Kara with a concerned look. She fiddled with her hands. Alex shook her head as if to ask what it was, "Well?" She asked.
Kara was daydreaming about something. Her heart began to race. Everything now, made sense. "Uh, when someone is in emotional turmoil, they uh can loose their powers. Only for a second though. I think I just had all these emotions built up." Lied Kara.
"Really?" Asked a skeptical Alex. "Yeah, yeah I only learned about it when I went to argo. Surprisingly, yoga is a big thing there, yeah. I mean they call it aogry but it's the same thing. It calms them down" Explained Kara. "Well, then maybe you should have a break. A longer one I mean. To destress" Said Alex while jokingly going into a yoga pose. Kara giggled.
1000 years later
As the ship landed in England they all made a sigh of relief. While on the enemies soil they couldn't calm down and every little noise made them panic. Especially Sam.
'Yeah I can't do these long drives, sitting in the back seat, thinking bout that one night when the world caught fire'. Mon El mouthed the lyrics as he layed down on his bed. As the song continued he closed his eyes and imagined Kara.
They where in her apartment listening to that song. Kara stood up and pulled him up too. She started to dance twirling him around and singing. Her smile, lighting up the room, where the only lights where of candles. The red illuminated the room with a romantic glow. 'I'm falling out of your life'. Kara spun then caught herself from falling with Mon El's hand. He grabbed her and pulled her close.
They spun around glued into each others eyes. 'And take you to my dismal dreams'.
Kara lifted Mon El up easily and he wrapped his legs around her waist. They kissed, breathing softly into each others mouths. Kara's breath smelt like fresh sea air and Mon El's like gingerbread. Probably because he was eating them earlier. Mon always used to eat the heads first saying that it was the most "Humane".
'Hey, I've been thinking bout you all damb day, and the sun is shining on your face. I think fell for you.' Said Kara to Mon El. Kara swayed back and forth. She could tell that Mon El was tired so she brought him the the bed and layed him down. She fell besides him and wrapped herself in his warmth.
As the song ended Mon El was brought back. He opened his eyes to see the white walls and door. The ship was almost too white. Like an insane asylum. Trying to be modern, but trying too hard and giving people headaches. He was extremely tired and drifted off to sleep, with a tear running down his battered face.
1000 years previous
Kara had just left the DEO and was on leave to rest. As she passed the corner she looked behind her and then went into a pharmacy. Her hands were shaking as she looked around the cluttered shelves. As her eyes fell upon the box she nervously grabbed it and went quickly up to the cashier.
"How you doing today?" Asked the cashier in a friendly tone. Kara didn't respond, her mind to focused on that box. The cashier looked at it and made a light cough awkwardly. "Well that's going to be $5.90 please" Stated the cashier while putting it in a bag. Kara looked around at all the posters on the walls. She gulped as she came back in to focus and saw the cashiers hand out for the money. "Oh." Said Kara tiredly.
As she left the store her mouth dryed and her breathing became laboured. 'This can't be happening' She thought to herself over and over again all the way home. She passed a family on the street; A mother, father and two small children. They looked so happy. Kara couldn't walk anymore, she felt like crumpling over and crying but she couldn't. She had to keep walking.
As she wiped her feet at the door, she placed her hand on her heart and cryed. She turned on Alexa and said "Play, Mon El playlist. " She grabbed the box and shakily took it out. She stared at it. Kara hadn't realised how hungry she was until she spotted the cookies on the table. She grabbed one quickly and stuffed it into her mouth. Most likely to try detract herself.
A couple minutes later, after she had siked herself up enough she took the test into the bathroom and done it. Her finger twiddled with her hair as she waited. She felt sick. Hopefully it wasn't a symptom of what she was testing for. It couldn't be true. Her life was a mess of breakdowns and all-day naps.
Her heart raced as she flipped over the test... Two lines. Kara shook her head and started to cry. The only time she could ever imagine being a mom was if Mon El was by her side. She had no idea what to think or how to feel. She wished she could go back to when she first saved the plane. In the moment her life seemed so complicated but looking back it was paradise. So much simpler.
She needed to tell Mon El but he wasn't in reach. She constructed a reality where Mon El stayed that night. Kara was the happiest she had ever been.
Mon El was sitting on the couch wondering why Kara was taking so long in the bathroom. He knew she had been feeling a bit off lately so he knock on the door. "You okay?" Asked Mon El. Kara was speechless as she stared at the positive test. "Kara?" Asked Mon El while his worry growed. "Ug.. Uh. I'm okay. I think I, I" Muttered Kara from the other side of the door.
As the door clicked open which was strange because they never locked the door when they went. Kara had quickly hid the test so he didn't see it. "Hey" said kara, her hands shaking. She leeped in for a hug and held him tight, so tight that a normal person would be crushed. " What's wrong?" Asked a heart racing Mon El. She didn't respond, just cried into his top.
He lifted her up and walked her to the couch. "Somethings wrong. Tell me" Said Mon El solfty yet desperately. Kara stared into his beautiful eyes and slowly said "There's something that, I don't know how you are going to react because we've never talked about it, I I..". Mon El sat there patiently while she struggled to find the words. She couldn't.
She got up gently and said "I'll be two seconds". Mon El nodded and a few seconds later she appeared again. "Why did you go into the bathroom?" Asked Mon El. As she pulled the stick from behind her back she said "For this". He looked at it confusedly. This silence frightened Kara. After a moment or so he asked "What is it?"
"Ohh. Um you, don't... Its a um. Its a preganacy test" Said Kara with much hesitation. Mon El took it off her and asked "And the two lines.. They mean, they mean that your pregnant?". Kara nodded her head a centimeter. Her big, doe eyes waiting for his reaction. He gulped then stared at the lines. He began to tear up. "You, you don't want it?" Asked a terrified kryptonian.
He smiled then looked around him. "Do you?" Muttered Kara. He nodded then Kara exhaled. She was soo nervous she had somehow forgotten how to breath. Mon El didn't know what to say.
Mon El had never really thought about children. He knew he would of been forced to have them on Daxam to continue the monarchy but in those times he was more interested in sex than anything else but he was a knew person now and loved the thought of having children with Kara.
"So... We're going to have a baby" Said a blank Kara. As soon as she said that he burst out laughing and smiling. He wrapped his big, reassuring arms around a frozen Kara. He pulled away and put his forehead on hers. "I know you're scared because I am too but we love each other and that's all we'll ever need." Stated Mon El. Kara nodded.
They both stared at her tummy. She wasn't showing yet they couldn't help but look in awe. He placed his hand on her belly and she smiled. She kissed him, closing her eyes trying to soak up his love.
When she opened them again she was alone in a cold and empty apartment. All her happiness disappeared and all that was left was the fear again. All these feelings. As she walked in to the bedroom even the sun seemed sad. She wasn't sad because of the baby. She was sad that Mon El wasn't here. The root of most of her sadness these days.
There was soo much she needed to say to him. Somehow after just finding out she was pregnant all she could think about was Mon El... Still. She grabbed a pen and her diary. She had bought it thinking she was going to be that girl who writes a page long diary everyday, but alas she had bought it two months ago and had only written 11 pages.
She began to write:
To Mon El
What the fuck is my life. What the fuck. I'm pregnant. You're 1000 years away. I just got shot with normal lead bullets. I have hillutionations of you. I have done nothing with my entire life. I have no idea what's going on in anybodies lives. I think im depressed. What the fuck. When did my life become a cartoon tradegy??? I don't know.
You're never coming back but I still wait for you to walk though the door. When you left the first time I felt shity and I thought there was no way I could feel more shitty. I told you it was worse than I could imagine, you coming back married. I told you it was worse than never seeing you again but I lied because in my heart buried very low I was soo happy to see you and I wish I would have told you... This though, this is shittier. This is shit in a toilet made out of shit, in a house made out of shit, in a planet made out of shit and everything's just shit...
She carried on for pages and pages writing everything that she thought of at superspeed. Her page near caught on fire, how fast she was writing. A lot of shit, fuck and ??? where written in the messily written pages. She wrote for hours, with music in the background. Her Mon El playlist obviously. She didn't move from her spot once. She cried, laughed and was angry.
Somehow when she had finally set down her warrior pen for the night she felt the best she had felt in weeks. She just needed to say everything. Now, there was room in her head for knew thoughts. Like... Baby.
Kara, like Mon El had never really thought about having kids. She was an alien who could not have children with humans and the only other kryptonian there was her cousin and she wasn't in alabama so... She went from young assistant who was just starting to figure things out to superhero who obviously couldn't have a child. If she was a normal human with a quiet job then maybe but...
She caught herself on that thought. 'If I was a normal human? Obviously couldn't have a child?... I'm the reason I'm not happy! I make excuses for why I can't have things and do things! Well fuck you old me because guess what? I can have a child and I am having one!'
Oddly having an argument with your old self can be strangely liberating. She promised herself that she was going to be and do everything that she ever wanted to do but just made excuses for.' I would sing at bars but I am too busy with supergirl-I'm going to sing at bars! I would love to go to concerts but my job-I'm going to go to a concert... Multiple!'
She then stopped and frowned. What else had she wanted to do? Is that really all? Kara looked at her apartment, the same old furniture, same old job, same apartment, same friend's. It was like she decided who she was at 20 and never looked back. She had no idea what she liked anymore. Who she was...
She said out loud, "By the time I have this baby I want to know who I am. I will be a better person." She was absolutely wrecked emotionally and literally from the week so fell into deep sleep instantly.
Thirty first century
Mon El had been in a meeting discussing their plans and Americas plans. It was a heavy meeting with loads of," Unfortunately we lost such and such.." And, "It isn't going to plan".
The team decided to have a beer in the bruised ship. Random music played in the background as they talked about things. All they had known for weeks was war, screaming and yelling. They didn't know how to have a normal conversation. "So..." Said Winn trying to start a conversation. "So." Said Sam while taking a swig of alcohol. Mon El sighed loudly as he set his empty beer bottle on the worn table.
"Finished already?" Asked Sam while smirking. "Yep" Replied Mon El while giving a weak smile. They were all done out. The windows cast a heavy grey over their faces.
Then the song came on... A thousand years. As soon as the vocals started Mon El broke out in tears. 'Heart beats fast, colours and promises. How to be brave. How can I love when I'm afraid to fall but watching you stand alone all of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow... One step closer'. He quickly went out of the room trying to disguise his sadness.
Everyone in the room sat there awkwardly. They didn't want to say anything. A couple seconds later Mon El came back in. His tears wiped away. He tried to pretend like everything was normal. Everyone stared at each other. 'I have died everyday waiting for you. Darling don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years..I'll love you for a thousand more'.
"Beauty and all she is" Sang Mon El subconsiously while thinking of her... "I am in love with Kara Zor El." Said Mon El bluntly. He continued by asking, "Winn, I love her, so... So if I don't don't make it out. If I don't make it, can you tell her that please? I need her to know that she is the love of my life. Please". Mon El had tears dripping onto him. He was planning on going back to her once the war was over but... He didn't know when that would be or if it would ever end. He didn't know if he would survive to tell her himself.
"Don't say that man, you're going to see her again. I mean if anyone is going to die it's going to be me, the nerdy tech guy who used to be scared when his boss walked into the room." Said Winn jokingly. Winn looked at Mon Els sad face and said, "Of course I would tell her".
Twenty first century
It had been a week since kara had found out the news and she was doing... Okay. She was still struggling but now she had someone to fight for. She still hadn't fully wrapped her head around her baby. She hadn't wrapped her head around any of it if she was being honest. She hadn't told anyone yet. And if she was being honest about that too, it was because she was still waiting for Mon El to magically appear. She wanted to tell him first.
She was lounging on her sofa scrolling through Netflix looking for something to watch. She had been really sick that morning so decided to take it easy. She turned on a rom-com. Obviously she cried... On the adds before it even started but it was a really cute dog. How could you blame her?
Ring ring ring
Hey
Hey Alex, what's up?
I know you are on a break but there is sort of a situation..
And before Alex could finish her sentence Kara was at the DEO.
"What do you want?" Asked Kara. Kara was standing beside Alex and J'onn looking at the familiar silhouette. "I gave you a gift Kara Zor El and you wasted it! Now you're going to pay the price!" Explained the charismatic figure.
"Music Mike or whatever!" Yelled Kara as she finally remembered who it was. He walked out of the shadow and gave a twirl. "It's me!" Shouted Mike. He continued " I go by Mikkey now, but anyway. I was excited to call round to yours after I saw how well Barry and Iris were getting on but no. Mon El is nowhere in sight! I sensed him here, in your apartment but he wasn't there. A little bird told me he was in the future!"
"I'll ask again. What do you want?" Asked Kara who seemingly turned angry when mikkey or whatever said his name. "Remember when Mon El saved your life with true love. Well seeing as your not in love anymore. I've came to take it back!" Sneered Mikkey. "Take what back?" Asked an angry Alex. "You're sister's life of course" Said Mikkey laughing lightly.
That sentence made every bodies blood boil. J'onn had had enough of this talking so attacked him, running while turning into the Green Martian. Mick dodged his attack and gave a side gut punch. Alex ran in next trying to catch Mick out but he smacked her across the room. Kara was on the edge and fell. She ran at him at supers speed and punched him straight in the head. A punch that would have instantly killed a normal human. Even J'onn saw this and thought it was harsh.
She began repeatedly smashing his skull with her small hands. "MICKEY LIKE MICKEY MOUSE REALLY? YOU DIDN'T DESERVE THE NAME MIKE ANYWAY. THAT'S RESERVED FOR THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!" screamed Kara. He grabbed her forearm, twisted it round her body and kicked her up the ear. "YOU DON'T LOVE HIM! AND IF YOU DO, HE DOESN'T LOVE YOU BACK! LOOK! HE'S NOWHERE TO BE FOUND!" shouted Mickey in Kara face.
She used her laser eyes as he dodged. The lasers hit the screens and wrecked them all. Probably 120,000 in damages. J'onn, Kara and Alex all fought against him for around two minutes before he grabbed Alex's arm and literally snapped it in two. CRACK. It was horrific to hear and after a second Alex screamed... Obviously.
It sent shivers down everyone's back. Just then lots of DEO agents came rushing in who had previously been at a mission. They didn't know what to do. Kara had and idea and quickly sped down the corridor.
"Hey Mickey Mouse!" Screamed Kara while flying at him. He turned around to have a fist full of 5th dimensional energy in his face. His kryptonite. He was knocked out and Kara went instantly over to Alex. "Is it bad?" Asked a heavily breathing Alex who already knew the answer to that question. "We're going to get you sorted. You just stay brave okay?" Said Kara while carefully lifting Alex up.
Mon Els time
There was hope in the air as Winn pressed the last button... The AAA's (Anti-Alien Army) plan was foiled. Relief consumed the air as well as their hearts. It was over, well not the battle but the war. They knew that without their plan, the AAA wouldn't win. There was still work to be done but they could finally see the end of it.
The Legion where in London fighting a army of enemies. London was nothing like it was in the 21st century. It had only grew in popularity and was named the "Most diverse city in the solar system" by many news sites as well as on a Saturn and Mars. Mars had beat the white Martians and was know very peaceful.
The streets were modern yet beautiful but it had been blown to bricks by bombs and was now a wasteland. "You ready?" Asked Winn while smirking at Mon El. "Team, listen up. They are coming from the east on foot so we have to be ready. Protect the people" Said Mon El. "Protect the people" Said everybody else in synchrony. It was their motto.
The doors of the ship opened and they all walked out. They grabbed supplies while doing so. Mon El felt so out of place. It was war. Not a villain versus the Legion, it was World War Three. He was used to a battle where you save everybody...He had toughened up during it a lot. He couldn't of handled it if he didn't.
Fighting people, saving people... Killing people. It disgraced his heart. He couldn't look at himself anymore. The only thing reminding himself of his life before was Kara. Kara. All he could think about was Kara, even when he was out on the field. Listening to music inbetween missions felt so surreal to him. He didn't recognise the world anymore and felt like a fish out of water.
As they left the ship they started running at the people who were shooting at them. Mon El jumped into the air and smashed down on the ground in the midst of the army. As he did 20 soldiers alone fell by the shock wave the created.
"Everyone good?" Asked Mon El who asked this question routinely when they were fighting. "Good here" Said Sam loudly while touching their ear piece. "I'm all go. AAAHH!" Screamed Winn as he was shot down. Mon El searched for him on the battle field and ran to him.
"Where where you shot!?" Asked Mon El while running to Winn. Winn didn't response. "Winn! Where were you shot?" Asked Mon El urgently. He crouched down besides him and looked for the wound. Winn just looked at him, shocked and scared. Mon El was the same but couldn't give in, he couldn't be soft right now. "Winn?" Asked Mon El as he quietened.
"I, I... Don't think its good.. I." Said Winn sitting up and leaning against a bit of destroyed building. Mon El looked away at the field and shouted into the earpiece. " we need help over here!" When he looked back he... He couldn't talk or think or here.
"Winn? " Asked Mon El quietly while beginning to cry. Winn's eyes had crystallised and he was limp on the ground.
After a minute frozen, Mon El lifted him up and flew him to the ship for help. He kept muttering to himself "Please be okay, please be okay."
A few hours later
Mon El was standing on a balcony listening to music with his earphones. He looked over the green sky infused with kryptonite. He couldn't bare doing this without Kara. Every second he was thinking of her. Brightside acoustic version was playing. '... And the light in your eyes...'
Winn was always there for him. Mon El put his hands over his tired face as he thought ' It's my fault, I was the reason he came here. I'm the reason he's hurt.'. He crumpled over on the ground. The air was not his. In this time, he could not live.' I'll be your brightside baby tonight'. Kara was always his brightside. As soon as he saw her face he knew.
1000 years previous
"Are you sure you're okay?" Asked Kara concernadly over the phone. "I've got a beautiful wife who can take care of me Kara! Im fine. You have a life too you know" Said Alex
"Oh really, I didn't know" Said Kara jokely but Alex picked up on a twinge of heartache in her voice. Alex knew how much Kara had been struggling and didn't want to be a burden on her. "Anyways I'll talk to you later? " Said Alex. "Sure" replied Kara. They hung up their phones simultaneously.
Kara frowned as soon as the call had ended. Today was one of her harder days. Her plan was to just sit around, listen to music and eat lots of stuff. Then she remembered! She was booked in to sing at the alien bar tonight. With the whole curfufle Kara had completely forgotten. She quickly got ready and headed out.
While on route to the bar Kara started to panic on what songs she should sing. You may be wondering how she got the gig. Well she knew the owner and the owner had heard her sing at karaoke nights before so she got it easy. The owner, Mrs Lalat gave her free reign for her song choices.
As she entered the noisy bar she was overwhelmed with the amount of people there. Of course on today of all days, the bar was busy! As her feet stepped on the old wood floor everyone turned to look at her. She was wearing a dark olive jump suit with beautiful details. She wore matching gold jewelry and a gold chain. Some black boots and a messy yet gorgeous bun. She looked like a rock star. This was what she felt most herself in.
Everyone quieted as the music began. 'love the way you lie' by Eminem. Kara started of quiet, "Just going to stand there and watch me burn? Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts. Just going to stand there and hear me cry? Well thats alright because I love the way you lie. I love the way you lie."
Kara's voice was slightly shaky as she was nervous out of her mind. She had sung at Karaoke night a plethora of times but there was never any pressure for her to be any good. It was a lot. She just closed her eyes and let her voice guide her to the end.
She sent it when she began to sing, "I can't tell you what it really is, I can only tell you what it feels like. And right now there's a steel knife in my windpipe. I can't breath..." It took the audience by surprise and honestly took Kara by surprise aswell. All her emotions flooded out into the room. It wasn't like she was screaming but you could hear the pain in her words which really benifited the song."... When it's going good, it's going great. I'm superman with the wind on his back. She's lois Lane... I guess I don't know my own strength. "
"Just going to stand there and watch me burn? Well that's alright because I like the way it hurts. Just going to stand there and hear me cry? Well that's alright because I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie. I love the way you lie." Sang Kara.
Kara passionately continued," You ever loved somebody so much you can barely breath when you're with 'em? You meet and neither one of you even know what hit' em. Got that warm fuzzy feeling, yeah, then chills used to get 'em... "
The crowd had completely abandoned their conversations to marvel at her. Kara didn't seem like the person to sing at this bar, she seemed like a singer who would sing in stadiums and sell out on well over priced tickets. People started getting up and singing and the atmosphere was amazing.
"Just going to stand there and hear me cry? Well that's alright because I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie... I love the way you lie." Sang Kara. As the last words were sung, nearly spoken with how quiet she had got, the crowd erupted into applause. Kara couldn't contain her laughter and happiness... This felt right.
"Thanks soo much! I feel loads of pressure coming off that last song!" Shouted Kara charismaticly. "Alright I want to hear yous in this next one! I know you all know it!" Yelled Kara while pointing around the room. The music started and everyone cheered.
'Strong enough' by Sheryl Crow but the HAIM version. "God, I feel like hell tonight. The tears of rage, I cannot lie. I'd be the last to help you understand. Are you strong enough to be my man. My man." Sang Kara confidently. She was free, free of a label of who she was or who she could be. She was just herself. Herself for the fist time in a while. Mon El always made her feel like herself but now she could be that without relying on anyone else.
"Nothings true and nothings right. So let me be alone tonight. 'Cause you can't change the way I am. Are you strong enough to be my man?" Sang Kara while holding her arms up. During the vocal break Kara said "Come on everyone! Sing it with me!"
"Lie to me, I promise I'll believe. Lie to me, but please don't leave!" Screamed everyone, even the grumpy bartender. Kara wasn't lost, in that moment she was found. She knew that the feeling would be fleeting once she jumped off the stage so she made the most of it.
She sang five songs and had a blast." Thank you soo much guys! This was my first gig and I was really nervous!" Spoke Kara while smiling uncontrollably. They gave her a cheer as she jumped off the stage.
"Oh my gods, that was amazing!" Shouted one of the aliens in the crowd. "I heard you singing along! I think you should get up on that stage too!" Said Kara enthusiastically.
"Hey you were great!" Said a tall man coming to Kara. "Thanks" Said Kara politely. "What's your name?" Asked him. " Oh uh, Kara" said the up in coming rock star. " My names Jack, you want to uh, come back to my place?" Asked Jack persistently. Kara was shocked by his forwardness and quickly shook her head.
"Oh come on!" Said Jack while grabbing Kara's hand and pulling it. Kara jults away and says "I've got a boyfriend!". Jack rolls his eyes and says, "Really? 'Cause I seem to remember you dedicating one of your songs to the love of your life who you can't be with soo..."
Kara tries to walk away but Jack follows her outside. "You really don't want me angry." Said Kara while trying to stay calm. "Oh, what are you going to do?" Asked Jack. Kara stared him in the eye. She walked over to him which gave him hope.
"Hehe. What am I going to do? Oh I don't know maybe punch your face in or um... Break your legs so you can't harass me anymore?" Said Kara with a deadly stare. He grabbed her and pushed her against the wall. "You know I'm trained in self defence?" Asked Kara calmly.
She grabbed his arm then twisted it. She kneed him in the balls then slammed him against the wall. "Aawa" Shreaked the weak man. Kara couldn't use her powers as she had already told him her name. She pinned him down then called J'onn.
"Hey, are you alright?" Asked J'onn concerningly.
"Oh yeah I'm fine, but there's a man here who is injured. I think he was trying to get in my pants so I've got him pinned down out the back of the alien bar. Soo... Um... Its Kara Danvers by the way." Said Kara trying to give J'onn the message.
"Mmm. I've got it Danvers." He hung up and flew over besides the alien bar, transformed back and pretended to be a normal police officer.
"Umm, I think you've got this wrong officer. I was just chatting her up then she attacked me like a crazy woman." Said Jack convincingly. Kara scoffed. "Totally" Said Kara sarcasticly. J'onn and Kara looked at each other.
A hour later
"So he's in a cell currently. I don't know if we will be able to keep him in there for as long as he needs but." Said J'onn sternly.
