Supergirl dropped down in downtown Metropolis and saw several formidable villains: Sinestro, Ares, Black Adam, Doomsday, and Bane. Kara cracked her knuckles as she readied herself for a good fight. "Alright, who wants to die, first?" she asked them.

"You can't hope to overcome our combined strength, Supergirl," Sinestro sneered.

"Oh really? Yellow is the color of cowardice," Kara smirked.

Looking over the crowd, Kara used her super-speed and went straight for Bane. With one solid punch, there was a large hole in his gut. Bane fell over dead before he knew what had happened.

Sinestro quickly wrapped Kara in yellow chains keeping her in place. Black Adam fired lightning on Kara while Doomsday fired his heat vision. Ares came down and punched Kara repeatedly even as she was being fired upon. Kara tensed up and blasted off the chains around her. A solar shield flared up blocking Black Adam and Doomsday's attacks.

Kara punched Ares' helmet off stunning him. "That mustache looks ridiculous," Kara smiled as she saw it.

Ares manifested blades and swung at Kara missing each time. Kara punched Ares into a building and went straight for Sinestro. He fired on Kara in vain as each attack bounced off her. "You can't hurt someone that has no fear," Kara told him.

Kara blasted off his right arm. Sinestro suddenly lost his powers and fell to the ground where he went splat on the pavement. Ares manifested dozens of blades and threw them at Kara from the ground. Kara powered up her solar powers and created an aura that vaporized the blades before they could hit her. Kara then punched Ares deep into the ground. With her heat vision, she blasted him inside the hole until he was dead.

Black Adam kicked Kara away from the hole. Kara and Black Adam traded blows with electricity sparking off their bodies. The buildings and cars around them exploded with the electrical discharges coming from them. Black Adam then collapsed from his wounds while Kara remained standing. He then turned into a kid wearing black clothes.

"What do I look like: Anakin Skywalker? Scram, kid," Kara told the kid. The kid immediately ran off.

Doomsday suddenly punched her through the air into an "Enjoy Coca Cola" electronic billboard destroying it completely. Kara stepped out of the ruined billboard and looked around.

"Wow, this makes me want a Pepsi," Kara mused.

Doomsday flew up at her for another attack. Kara kicked him to the chin sending him high into the air. Kara followed up with rapid punches to Doomsday's torso. The beast kept attacking though and tried to use his heat vision on her. "I know you like this," Kara said to the beast as she punched him.

"I'm just going to have to like it a little more," Kara smirked. As the two fought in the air, the US military was analyzing the situation at the DEO.

"I think it's time we used the bomb," Maxwell Lord said to Gen. Lane.

"I agree with that assessment," Gen. Lane said as he saw the destruction.

"Hundreds of thousands could die," Alex objected.

"If we don't stop this fight, the whole planet is in danger," Maxwell said.

"You can't do this. This is Supergirl," Alex protested.

"She knew what she was getting into," Maxwell told her.

"I agree. I now have presidential authority to launch the weapon," Gen. Lane said and proceeded to push the button.

"That's...my sister," Alex said tearfully.

Gen. Lane gave Alex a shocked look. "Everyone, brace for impact," he ordered.

The missile fired up towards Kara and Doomsday with Maxwell's Kryptonite weapon. Everyone watched the video screen as the missile continued its approach. Kara was too busy having fun with Doomsday to notice the missile.

"Okay, I'm going to take this a little more serious," Kara grinned and then punched Doomsday hard enough that his head swung around.

Kara laughed in victory and was suddenly hit by the missile. There was an intense flash of light followed by a sonic boom that caused a large section of Metropolis to shatter. Buildings fell crushing anyone inside them. Civilians underneath the blast were suddenly crushed like pancakes. In an instant, hundreds of thousands of people were crushed or incinerated by the blast.

"May God have mercy on our souls," Gen. Lane said devastated.

Maxwell looked around and found that Alex had already left.

Kara hit the ground like a bullet and started coughing from the Kryptonite particles. Struggling to breathe, she noticed the destruction around her. The Catco building had been completely destroyed. "James...Winn...Cat," she choked out.

Police and ambulance crews moved in to deal with the wounded. Kara noted scores of people dead from the blast. "I had it taken care of. What the fuck?" she said teary-eyed.

Kara clenched her fists in anger. "This is Gen. Lane's fault," she figured. Despite the Kryptonite in the air, Kara's anger flared up. Getting back to her feet, the smoke blew away from her as she prepared to take flight towards the DEO.

"Don't forget about me, Supergirl," Lex Luthor said wearing a mech suit.

Kara swayed as she walked towards him. "You must have some kind of death wish, Luthor," Kara said to him as she got closer. She tried to fry him with her heat vision, but her powers were too weakened.

"With the Kryptonite in the air, you're no match for me," Lex told her.

"Is that a fact," Kara said and then punched him to the ground.

Lex got up and took out a Kryptonite sword. "Really?" Kara sighed.

Lex hesitated to swing his sword as Kara got closer to him. "Better swing well, Lex. It will be your last," Kara said to him.

Lex gave Kara a look of fear. "Devil's don't come from the ground. They come from the sky," he told her.

"Oh, fuck you," Kara said as she punched him through the chest and out the other side.

Kara withdrew her hand from Lex's body and let him fall to her feet. "No more jolly ranchers for you," she told him.

Back at the DEO, Maxwell looked away and held the desk as if he himself had been punched to the chest. "I've gone too far," he realized. He took out his phone and deactivated the program.

Kara suddenly noticed something odd. Looking around, she saw the bodies of Justice League members on the ground. Hal Jordan was missing his right arm and had splattered all over the ground. Batman had a big hole in his gut. Kara then turned to Lex Luthor and saw, instead her sister, Alex, in a mech suit.

Kara walked back a few steps in shock. She looked down at the hole in the ground she had made and saw Wonder Woman's burned body down below. Looking up at the sky, she realized the truth: Doomsday had been Superman, her cousin.

"What the fuck is this?" Kara whispered. She then realized the destruction around her. The bomb hadn't been meant for Doomsday but for her. All these people were dead because they had tried to put her down. She had killed hundreds of thousands, the Justice League, and her own sister.

Police formed a perimeter around Kara but kept their distance. Kara walked up to her dead sister in disbelief. She had punched a hole through her heart. "How? Why?" Kara cried as she knelt down.

"And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why you can't trust super-heroes," Max said to the DEO agents as the video showed Kara crying over Alex.

Kara shook her head in disbelief and grief. Everyone she gave a shit about was dead. Kara then stood up and looked over the fearful crowd. Kara then gave a scream of grief and rage as she flew off.

Kara shot towards the Fortress of Solitude and punched the door open. Entering the fortress, she turned on the computer. It showed Kara battling the Justice League killing each one individually. Kara stared in shock and disbelief as the Justice League pleaded with her to stop as she killed them. She then saw her fighting Superman and how she had killed him by punching his head around. She then saw Alex pleading with her to stop.

"Kara, it's me, Alex. Don't do this. I love you," Alex said in her mech suit.

"Is that a fact?" Kara smirked as she swayed over to her.

Alex took out her Kryptonite sword to protect herself. "Really?" Kara sighed. "Better swing well, Lex. It will be your last."

Alex gave her a look of fear and hesitated to strike her sister down. "You are this world's guardian angel. Stop this," she pleaded.

"Oh, fuck you," Kara said as she punched through Alex's chest and out the other side.

Alex went into immediate shock and dropped her sword. Alex fell to the ground dead at Kara's feet. "No more jolly ranchers for you," Kara smirked at her dead body.

Kara stopped the recording and gave the screen a sunken look. "What the fuck!" she screamed as she punched through the screen. In her rage, she fired on everything in the fortress destroying all of the statues, artifacts, and artwork in the fortress.

Kelex cautiously approached and scanned Kara's body. "Radioactive Kryptonite detected. Proceeding to eradicate contaminates," Kelex said as lasers covered Kara's body.

"Thanks," Kara whispered as she was free of the Kryptonite. Her strength fully returned to her. "Activate the Alura program," she ordered.

A hologram of Alura appeared before her. "I need a straight answer. No bullshit," Kara told her.

"I will answer what I can," Alura replied.

"How can a Kryptonian lose their powers, permanently?" Kara asked.

The fortress suddenly became red.

At the DEO, Hank snapped off his cuffs and demanded answers. "What did you do?" Hank demanded of Gen. Lane.

"What I had to do. Supergirl attacked the Justice League and was about to destroy all of Metropolis," Gen. Lane told him.

"Impossible," Hank doubted.

"You know as well as I do that her mind is vulnerable to attack. First, it was Red Kryptonite, and now this. This kind of power cannot be allowed to exist," Gen. Lane said.

"That power saved our ass numerous times," Hank argued.

"She can burn the entire world. Even if there is a one percent chance it can happen, how can I accept that risk?" Gen. Lane said.

"So, what did you do?" Hank asked.

"We fired Maxwell Lord's weapon at her," Gen. Lane said. "It didn't even kill her."

Hank was relieved and then saw the destruction on the video screen. "The entire Justice League is dead, hundreds of thousands dead, and she's still out there," Gen. Lane said.

"Where's Agent Danvers," Hank demanded.

"She's dead, Hank. Supergirl killed her," Gen. Lane told him.

Hank gave Gen. Lane a look of disbelief and horror. "No," he said devastated. "I have to talk to her."

"That could make matters worse," Gen. Lane disagreed.

"Tell me, general. How could it be worse?" Hank said wiping away a tear and marching out of the DEO.

An alien ship the size of a city resembling a skull with tentacles floating about approached Earth. It immediately reached out to Earth's satellites taking control of them and downloading all of their information. Maxwell Lord was approached by a technician as soon as the problem occurred.

"We've lost all of our satellites," the technician said. "It's a powerful virus. It keeps changing as if it has a life of its own."

"But the Kryptonians have been defeated," Maxwell wondered.

Television screens were suddenly taken over by an alien source. "I am the knowledge and strength of ten thousand worlds. I am flesh and machine. I will have everything," the mechanical voice said with a three-dot symbol.

"You will give me all of your knowledge. You will give me the Kryptonian, Kara-Zor El. Failure to comply will result in your eradication," the voice said.

Gen. Lane listened to the voice on DEO screens. "Your petty weapons are under my control now," the voice continued. The television screen showed the locations of every nuclear missile in the world.

Gen. Lane took to the phone and listened intently. "We've lost control of our missiles," he realized.

All of Earth's cities suddenly went dark as all electronic devices were shut down. Jetliners went down as they lost power. Shazam managed to save one jetliner from crashing as he gently laid it on the ground. However, other jetliners slammed into cities and fields. Stunned by the loss of life, Shazam took to space and went straight for the alien ship.

The alien ship launched fighters at Shazam. With his lightning power, he blasted a few of the fighters. Eventually, the fighters overwhelmed him and brought him on-board. Robot soldiers engaged Shazam as he tried to free himself. He was punched numerous times and then subdued.

A seven-foot-tall figure approached the captured Shazam. His body was encased in metal with dozens of socket ports. His skin was a sickly green, his eyes were black, and there were sockets on his scalp. "I am the destroyer of worlds. I am Brainiac," he said.

"Nice to meet you," Shazam smirked as he was restrained.

"You were one of the last to see Kara Zor-El. You will help me find her," Brainiac ordered.

"No can do," Shazam resisted.

"She killed your comrades," Brainiac said.

"She must have been brainwashed. She's a good person. She let me live," Shazam said.

"You will give her up or die," Brainiac said.

"Even if I give her up, you won't stop until you've killed everyone," Shazam said.

"I give you credit, mortal. You are one smart mother-fucker," Brainiac complimented. A cable suddenly inserted itself into Shazam's head.

"Say your name," Brainiac ordered.

Shazam attempted to resist but lost control of his speech. "Shazam," he said and then became a kid again.

Brainiac extended his wrist blade and went for the kill.

Kara stayed in bed dressed in a white nightgown with a glass of champagne near her at all times. She looked sickly, depressed, and completely drunk. "Another," she said softly to Kelex.

"That is not advisable," Kelex told her.

"I don't give a shit," Kara shouted.

Kara drank her last glass, so she wouldn't feel anything. Stumbling the entire time, she went past the ruined fortress and exited into the Arctic cold. Without her powers, she quickly began to freeze to death. Kara didn't care even as the blizzard blasted her.

"I'm so sorry, Alex," Kara said as she cried. Her tears turned to ice in the cold. Kara then collapsed in the snow.

A green ghost then appeared before her. "What the fuck?" Kara wondered as her mind began to shut down.

J'onn took hold of Kara and carried her back to the fortress.

Brainiac's ship hovered over Metropolis with its tentacles swaying dangerously. Fighters patrolled around it constantly. "Give me Kara-Zor El," the ship demanded.

US fighter jets engaged the alien ship firing missiles at it. Brainiac's fighters scrambled shielding the main ship from the missiles. Maxwell watched as the fighters engaged one another. Brainiac's main ship then engaged a pulse that slammed into the city. US fighters went haywire from the pulse and slammed into buildings in powerful explosions.

US helicopters were quickly destroyed by Brainiac's ship's many laser cannons. Brainiac's ship then fired on the city for the audacity. Maxwell turned to Supergirl. "It's showtime," he told her.

Supergirl leaped out the building and landed in the streets. "Here I am," she said to the ship.

Brainiac's ship paused its assault on the city. Brainiac exited his ship and landed on the ground. His robot army landed and formed lines to his left and right. Supergirl didn't back down as Brainiac came closer. Brainiac towered above her. "For you, I would search the entire universe."

"Your reign of terror ends here," Supergirl told him.

Brainiac scanned Supergirl. "You are not Kara Zor-El," he realized.

Supergirl went for a punch that was easily caught by Brainiac. The two struggled briefly until Brainiac stabbed her through with a Blue Kryptonite blade. Supergirl fell at his feet dead.

Maxwell gave a dumbfounded look as his Supergirl clone had failed. "What have I done?" he realized.

Hank waited for Kara to wake up. "Finally, you're awake."

"It's cold outside," Kara said weakly.

"No shit," Hank agreed.

"Leave me, Hank. If I wanted a shrink, I would talk to my dead mom," Kara said.

"I'm here to smack some sense into you. The world is under attack by an alien that goes by Brainiac," Hank told her.

"When is the world not under attack?" Kara muttered.

"I made a promise to Jeremiah that I would protect his daughters. I failed...with Alex. I won't fail with you," Hank told her.

"I'm the reason you failed," Kara said depressed.

"You were under some kind of mind control. It's not your fault," Hank assured her.

"What difference does it make?" Kara asked. "I got rid of my powers."

"What?" Hank asked dumbfounded.

"Yeah, I'm now ordinary Kara. I can even cut myself now," Kara smiled sadly as she got up.

"The world needs you. Who gives a shit what you did before," Hank argued.

"Maybe I should give a shit more often, Hank. Maybe, I should give a shit that those who I fought were actually Justice League members. I knew something was off during that fight. When Black Adam became a kid, I should have known something was wrong," Kara blamed herself.

"That kid is now dead defending the Earth," Hank told her.

Kara said nothing. "You are the only one that can stop Brainiac. That is a fact," Hank said.

"I stripped myself of all my powers. Don't you understand? Even if I got some sun, it wouldn't matter. I've lost the ability to even absorb sunlight. I'm as weak as any other human. I don't deserve this power. I'm a fuck-up," Kara told him.

Hank gave Kara a stunned look. "Is there no way to reverse it?"

"Maybe, I don't know. I don't care to know. If the world is going to end, I'm happy to end with it," Kara told him.

"I'm going to face it alone then," Hank said to her. "I lost my world. I won't lose another."

"You'll die," Kara told him.

"I don't give a shit," Hank said walking out.

Brainiac's ship came upon the White House and blasted a hole through the roof. Robots immediately went through the hole in the roof and easily subdued the secret service. Brainiac himself toured the White House and found the president with his staff in the oval office.

"You are not the president," Brainiac surmised.

"Why? Because I'm Black?" Obama asked offended.

"No, because you're green," Brainiac replied and then took Obama by the neck. After a brief struggle, Obama transformed into J'onn.

"Give me Kara Zor-El," Brainiac ordered.

"Fuck you," J'onn spat.

A drunk Kara made her way over to the nearest town's bar and sat down. An old television showed the news. "Your most powerful nation has surrendered to me. Earth's last hero is now in my grip," Brainiac said as he held a beaten J'onn. "Come to me, Kara Zor-El, or watch this world suffer."

"Supergirl needs to show herself," a Canadian drinker said to the agreement of others. The TV then showed an image of Supergirl.

"You know, you kind of look like her," another said to Kara.

"Why? Because I'm blond?" Kara asked subdued.

"Yeah, you do look like her. You need to turn yourself in," another demanded.

"How about you make me," Kara rolled her eyes.

The Canadians were just about to kick her ass when a red flash sent them all to the floor. Kara was then whisked away to a tall mountain. "Thanks for the save, but I kind of welcome the abuse," Kara said filled with self-pity.

"You were not yourself when you destroyed the Justice League. What happened wasn't your fault," Flash told her.

"What does it matter? My parents are dead. My sister is dead. My cousin is dead. My boss and my friends are dead. Why should I give a shit?" Kara asked.

"You cannot let this world die like Krypton," Flash told her. "There's a way to fix all this. I can break the speed-force and go back in time. I just need to know how you lost control."

"Go back in time? You must be high," Kara laughed.

"I'm being totally serious. I can reverse everything that has happened," Flash said.

"Barry, this is no time to be talking about time. We simply don't have the time," Kara said drunkenly and then threw up on the snow.

"Jesus," Flash muttered.

"You're a real asshole, Barry. Giving me hope and then taking it away. Why can't you leave me alone?" Kara said sadly.

"I'm taking you home," Flash said and then whisked her away to the fortress.

Flash looked around and found the place a total mess with ruined equipment and beer bottles scattered everywhere. "God damn!" he remarked.

"It's still better than your basement," Kara said.

"I might be able to repair some of this," Flash said looking over the computer that Kara had smashed.

"Knock yourself out," Kara said as she passed out on her bed.

Flash quickly went to work using his super-speed. Once he had fixed the computer, he started looking for any leads. He then came by a video blog posted by Maxwell Lord. "I am responsible for Supergirl killing the Justice League and causing Metropolis to be nuked. I used a mind control prototype based on Myriad to confuse Supergirl's senses. She thought she was fighting Earth's greatest foes. I am responsible for all those deaths. I saw super-heroes as a threat to the world, but I realize now the true threat are people like me, mad scientists with god complexes. For that, I am truly sorry. I'm sorry, Supergirl," Maxwell said and then shot himself in the head.

"Damn," Flash winced. "So, I just need to go back in time and persuade him to not use his device on you."

"Yeah, sure, persuade him," Kara mocked.

"What would you have me do? Kill him?" Flash wondered.

"Yeah," Kara said obviously.

"That isn't the Justice League way," Flash said leaving the fortress.

Kara followed after him curiously as to whether he could pull it off. Flash went into a running stance as he prepared to break the speed force. "You got this: gay pride," Kara told him.

"You're gay, too?" Flash smiled hopefully.

"No," Kara smirked.

"Err...well, I'm not either. I'm just proud to know some of them and...," Flash babbled.

"You need a push?" Kara mocked.

Flash suddenly shot forward and disappeared into the speed force. Kara went inside and restarted the Alura program. "Is Brainiac still on Earth?"

"Yes, Kara," she replied.

"Well...shit," Kara realized.

"I can give you back your powers, Kara," Alura said.

"Well, how about that?" Kara said frustrated.

"Listen carefully, Kara. We will never speak again. You've made a terrible mistake of your own free will. Not the destruction in Metropolis but you willingly stripping yourself of your powers out of your grief and self-pity. Now you return to me for one last chance to redeem yourself. It is something I have anticipated, my daughter," Allura said.

"Oh really?" Kara rolled her eyes.

"Silence!" Alura shouted at her. "Look at me, Kara. I give you the last remaining energy I have left. I died to save you. Now, I say farewell to you, forever," Alura said and disappeared.

Kara suddenly felt her strength return. Getting into her Supergirl uniform, Kara stepped outside only to find a robot army approaching. Brainiac's ship was hovering nearby. Brainiac, himself, marched towards her. "You should never have told J'onn J'onzz the location of this place. It was a fatal miscalculation on your part," Brainiac lectured.

"You fucked up coming here," Kara said confidently and then flew at him.

Brainiac quickly punched Kara to the face stunning her, then gave her a Falcon punch to the gut, and then smacked her down into the snow. Brainiac then pulled her out of the snow by her hair. "You were saying," Brainiac mocked.

"Just you wait until I am at full power," Kara threatened.

"You are at full power, Kara Zor-El. I am the perfect synergy of biological engineering. Your feeble skills are no match for a twelfth level intellect," Brainiac told her.

Kara was forced inside Brainiac's ship where the atmospherics purposefully weakened her. She struggled against Brainiac in vain as he led her to a large room filled with display cases of alien cities. "I have collected millions of lifeforms from thousands of different races," Brainiac told her.

"Well, I guess it's true what they say about mad scientists," Kara smirked.

"What is that?" Brainiac asked.

"You're too arrogant for your own good," Kara said and then punched through his torso.

Brainiac coughed up purple blood. "Impossible," he gasped.

Kara withdrew from Brainiac's torso and then kicked Brainiac's head clear off his shoulders. His body immediately collapsed without its head. Kara casually walked up to Brainiac's head and took a squat. "I'm going to destroy you and this entire ship," she told him.

"I have collected all of these civilizations and knowledge from countless worlds," Brainiac's head said.

"You don't say? Too bad I don't give a shit," Kara smiled.

"NO!" Brainiac's head screamed as Kara started blasting holes inside the ship. Kara finally hit the power core causing the ship to explode. All of Brainiac's volumes and civilizations were destroyed in a brilliant explosion. Kara walked away as Brainiac's ruined ship crashed in the ice and then sank into the Arctic Ocean.

With renewed optimism, Kara flew around the Earth. With each pass, she accelerated her speed until she reached nearly the speed of light. The planet slowed down and then started rotating backward. Kara kept it going until the Earth had rotated a sufficient number of days. Kara then slowed down and landed in Metropolis.

"Too easy," Kara said as she saw Metropolis completely restored. She landed at the Catco building, changed clothes, and casually walked into the office. Cat gave her the usual disappointed look while James and Winn smiled at her. "You ready for game night?" James asked her.

"Absolutely, but I have to do something first," Kara said.

That night, Kara entered Maxwell's apartment while still in business attire. Maxwell was busy contemplating a chessboard. "Supergirl or should I say, Kara Danvers," Maxwell smiled as she came in.

"I wanted to show my human persona," Kara smiled back.

"But what is truly the costume?" Maxwell asked.

"When I go to sleep, I wear pajamas just like you do," Kara rolled her eyes.

"What do I owe the pleasure?" Maxwell asked getting to business.

"We've had a good ride together. You threaten people I love and I thwart your plans. We have been enemies, then allies, and who knows what now," Kara said amused.

"Rivals of a sort," Maxwell agreed.

"You have a mind-control device you scratched from Myriad. You're planning to use it on me. You're going to make me kill the Justice League by manipulating my senses," Kara revealed.

"Any proof?" Max asked.

"We both know that I don't give a shit about proof. I just know," Kara shook her head. "Anyway, Max, you should know that I am totally willing to kick the Justice League's ass anytime anyplace for free. You don't need some fancy gadget to motivate me."

"Isn't the fact that your mind is vulnerable proof enough that you're dangerous? First, it was Red Kryptonite and now mind control. Let's face it. You may be invincible in strength but not in mind," Maxwell said.

"You're right, Max. That's why I try to give as few fucks as possible about this world because I know the temptation is too great for me to come in and fix all your human fuck-ups," Kara agreed.

"Then give up the cape. Go back to being a secretary and living in your cheap apartment. Give it all up," Maxwell said.

"I can't do that. I have to protect my sister. She's the only family I have left. I've tried to persuade her to leave her job and do something normal. As long as she does what she does, I have to protect her," Kara said seriously.

"And that makes you dangerous," Maxwell nodded.

"I can reverse time itself. There's nothing I can't do. That's how I know of your device. I told the Justice League about it just in case you thought to use it before I got here. Diana Prince is on her way here, and she's not taking prisoners," Kara told him.

"I knew she would show her true colors eventually," Maxwell said disappointedly.

"She won't get here in time," Kara said darkly. "I can do what they can't do. They inspire hope while I only inspire fear. That is how it has to be."

"I must have fucked up royally. That's why you reversed time. I did something so heinous that you had no choice but to risk everything including disrupting the space/time continuum. I forced you to kill Alex, didn't I?" Maxwell asked.

Kara downed a shot of whiskey and gave Maxwell a shot. "Something like that," Kara's voice cracked.

"Who's going to play this game with you without me?" Maxwell asked.

"I'm sure I'll find someone," Kara smiled sadly.

"After death, there is just nothingness. No past, present, or future," Maxwell mused.

"It is a bitch," Kara agreed.

Kara eyed the walls and then back to Maxwell. "I wish...," he said and then twin beams went through his eyes and out his head.

The door was suddenly kicked open as Diana barged in. She found Maxwell dead in his chair. Looking around, she noticed the balcony window was open.

Kara sat on her couch in quiet contemplation. Alex came in and found Kara staring off into space. "You missed game night," she said.

Kara said nothing. "I know...you don't give a shit," Alex mocked.

Kara got up and embraced Alex. "I would burn the whole world if it meant you were safe," she sobbed.

"What's come over you? I can take care of myself," Alex assured her.

"I really really need you to quit your job," Kara said to her.

"You know I can't do that. I have to find my dad," Alex reminded her

"Okay, but after we find him," Kara relented.

"Saving the world is my calling. I can't quit. Never," Alex said resolved.

Kara sighed. "Well...shit."

Author's Notes: In the comics, Diana kills Maxwell Lord to some controversy. This finally ends Maxwell's story on SG in a satisfactory manner.
