Kara strolled into the alien gay bar and walked up to the bar. "Vodka martini, shaken, not stirred," she ordered Mon.
"Coming right up," he smiled at her.
"Anything interesting happening?" Kara asked.
"Nothing out of the ordinary but some guy did hook me up with Monster Truck tickets. Want to come?" he asked.
"Mon, I have this thing about car crashes that I cannot explain. It's better than sex," Kara admitted.
"Wow, good to know," Mon smiled pleased. "Would you give up your job and your life on Earth for me?"
"Absolutely," Kara agreed immediately. "But my sister has to come. I can't leave her in this shithole," Kara said.
"What about Maggie?" Mon asked.
"What about her?" Kara said scornfully.
Alex then sat down next to Kara while Mon went to serve other customers. "Hey, Alex, how about we leave this planet behind and go somewhere actually nice for an extended period of time?" Kara offered.
"Maggie would never agree to quit her job, and I would never go without her," Alex replied.
"Damn...it," Kara muttered.
"Actually, Maggie surprised me with tickets to see Barenaked Ladies," Alex said excitedly.
"Okay, first off they're an all-male band and even worse than that they're Canadian," Kara pointed out.
"Hater. I've loved them since college," Alex said dismissively.
"I think it has more to do with us moving a lot of our production to Vancouver," Kara said skeptically.
Maggie then came to Alex excitedly. "You won't believe this but I know one of the officers that is acting as security and he upgraded our tickets to VIP."
"Ha, corruption is tight," Kara rolled her eyes.
"Oh my God, that's amazing," Alex said happily. The two then ran off to celebrate.
M'gann then came up to Kara. "You need anything?" she asked fearfully.
"Something...stronger than you," Kara said threateningly.
"I'll come up with something," M'gann muttered.
After she gave Kara her drink, M'gann went over to Mon. "Can you take out the trash?"
"That's not really my thing," Mon replied back.
"Fuck my life," M'gann shook her head and took out the trash herself.
As she did, she noticed Hank disguised as a homeless man. "You following me?" she accused.
"Well, yeah, you're perfect bait," Hank said revealing himself.
"When will it be enough? When can I have a normal life?" M'gann asked him.
"After every other White Martian is dead," Hank said darkly.
"Well, they're not here," M'gann said.
"Actually, there's one in the bar, right now," Hank revealed.
"How could you know that?" M'gann wondered fearfully.
"X-ray vision: It's a bitch," Hank smirked. Kara had already told him an hour prior.
A White Martian then suddenly appeared and started attacking them both. Hank and M'gann took on Green Martian forms and proceeded to both get their asses kicked. Kara casually exited the bar as Supergirl and watched the fight.
"Damn, you both suck at fighting," Kara shook her head amazed.
Finally, she blasted the White Martian with heat vision injuring him. The White Martian then retreated by leaping into the air. Kara flew after him and punched him while they were still in the air. The White Martian splattered all over the side of a building.
"Man, that never gets old," Kara said pleased with herself.
At the DEO, Kara stared at the television screen as it showed her killing the White Martian on repeat. She watched the kill countless times memorized. She then realized that Winn was at his desk working. "I didn't know if we'd see you again," Kara said to Winn.
"You know something I don't?" Winn asked concernedly.
"Thought you might be with Guardian or something," Kara figured.
"You know I only do that in my free time," Winn told her.
"James can score by just dialing random numbers. I'm worried about you, Winn. How are you going to score spending all your time either at work or on the streets?" Kara asked.
"Well, funny you should mention that because James is hooking me up with his assistant," Winn said.
"Teschmacher? You better get her tested first," Kara advised.
"Already did," Winn replied.
"Good...good," Kara allowed.
"What have you found, Schott?" Hank asked as he entered the room.
"Nothing yet, if only Supergirl had given us a prisoner to interrogate," Winn said dryly.
"Kiss my ass," Kara said to him.
"As you requested, M'gann is under constant surveillance. If they're out there, we should know it," Winn said showing a map where M'gann happened to be at.
"Creepy as fuck," Kara grinned.
"I'll prep the strike teams," Hank said.
"You should stay here where it's safe," Kara advised.
"Kiss my ass, Kara," Hank rebuffed.
M'gann then appeared in the DEO. Hank turned to Winn. "What the fuck, Schott?"
"I don't like being followed," M'gann said annoyed.
"I don't give a shit," Hank replied.
"Is this because I refused to be your mate?" M'gann asked.
"Oh, if you were my mate there would be even more surveillance on you," Hank told her.
"This is my fight," M'gann told him.
"As I recall, I saved your ass," Kara chimed in.
"Either make me part of your team or just leave me alone," M'gann requested.
"We're not negotiating," Hank refused.
M'gann then stormed out of the building. Kara sighed at Hank. "You should stop letting White Martians enter the DEO. At least make them work for it."
"That was a White Martian impersonating M'gann?" Hank asked stunned.
"My boy here is an excellent tracker. M'gann is at the bar, right now," Kara said referring to Winn. "Besides, X-ray vision: It's a...," Kara said.
"You share important shit like that," Hank interrupted her.
The real M'gann was at the alien gay bar. "You're cut off after that," she said as she gave a weird-ass alien another easy cheese squeeze can.
A bald man with an evil goatee approached M'gann. "Armek," she realized.
"How's it going...wife?" he asked resentfully.
"I'm no longer bound to you," M'gann corrected.
"Damn, that's cold," Armek said.
"It was always cold," M'gann glared at him.
"Even for Mars, you were always frigid," Armek frowned. "You've been impersonating a Green? What the fuck?"
"I thought you were dead," M'gann said.
"You came closer to killing me than anyone. It actually turns me on remembering it," Armek said.
"I thought murdering scores of Green Martians turned you on," M'gann said disdainfully.
"It still does," Armek agreed. "I've come to bring you back to Mars. Your treachery is legend. The council wants to see you dead more than J'onn J'onzz."
"I will never go back," M'gann said defiantly.
"You should see it. Without the Green vermin, Mars is a paradise," Armek said.
"Have you watched NASA Mars videos? It's a total wasteland," M'gann said skeptically.
"Fake news. Our cities are cloaked," Armek.
"Yeah, bullshit," M'gann muttered. "I'm not afraid of you."
"Maybe not. I know that you're friends with J'onn J'onzz and the Kryptonian," Armek said.
"Friend is a bit of a stretch," M'gann frowned. "If you care about me, you'll leave me alone."
"But I don't," Armek said with a crazy expression. "You have two hours to turn yourself over to me. If you do, I may let them live. If not, I'm going to make them burn."
M'gann left the bar after her shift was over. Hank was outside waiting for her. "I'm leaving," she told him.
"They'll just find you again," Hank said obviously.
"I've put you all in danger," M'gann said.
"Well, some more than others," Hank smiled.
"I have to get going," M'gann said impatiently.
"I spent many lifetimes running, convinced I was on this Earth alone. No one to call family, no one to call a friend. I refused to open my eyes to what was right in front of me. People who were willing to take a chance. It's taken me hundreds of years to learn to trust again," Hank said heartfelt.
"I can't stay here. So, piss off," M'gann told him.
Hank sighed and then motioned for his strike team to take her down. They came out of the shadows and used a TASER to stun her. They then took her away before anyone noticed.
Alex came into DEO and heard Barenaked Ladies through the intercom. Kara came up to Alex. "Shouldn't you be at your concert?" she asked.
"I'm just checking in for any updates," Alex said and noticed the music.
"It's called a phone," Kara rolled her eyes.
"I was checking in to see if things were okay between us," Alex clarified.
"Oh, because you're completely missing my Earth birthday," Kara said resentfully.
"I know you made all these plans," Alex said apologetically.
"I did?" Kara wondered. "We can celebrate another night."
"I'm so sorry. Do you hate me now?" Alex asked concernedly.
"I don't blame you, Alex. I blame Maggie," Kara said darkly.
"I want you to like her," Alex said.
Kara smirked at her. "I mean as a friend," Alex clarified.
"Tall order, because you're going to see a group you don't even like just because Maggie likes them," Kara said knowingly.
"How can you know that?" Alex asked.
Kara used her remote to increase the volume on the intercom. Alex twitched slightly as she heard them. "Nothing escapes these eyes," Kara said pulling an eyelid down for emphasis.
Kara then walked over to Winn. "Anything on the Martian front?" she asked cracking her knuckles in anticipation.
"Nothing yet, we're working on a better tracking technique," Winn said disappointedly.
"I brought M'gann in to help," Hank said.
"I'm here against my will...again," she muttered.
"We'll do everything we can to keep you safe," Alex promised.
"Oh really? Our record is shit poor in that regard," Kara smirked. "Especially with me," Kara said as she punched a hole in M'gann. She was flung into a plasma screen TV destroying it. M'gann fell to the floor dead.
"What the fuck, Kara?" Alex freaked.
"X-ray vision: It's is a bitch," Kara grinned as M'gann turned into a White Martian.
The real M'gann came down the stairs and gave the group a fearful look. "I thought this place was safe."
"Safe is relative," Kara told her.
Hank looked at the destroyed TV. "That was a seventy-inch plasma screen TV," he said with controlled annoyance. "You couldn't just break his neck?"
"Putting us on lockdown," Winn said putting in the command. All entrances and exits became closed.
"Exactly what a White Martian would do to pick us off one-by-one," Kara said to him.
"I'm just following protocol," Winn said pathetically.
"Okay, I'm convinced that Winn is real," Kara smiled.
"Stop fucking around, Kara. Find out who else is the White Martian," Hank ordered.
"What are you looking at?" an Asian DEO agent asked a female agent.
"Your ugly face," she said.
Asian DEO agent took out his pistol. "Whoa...whoa," Alex said taking out her pistol. In short order, pistols were being pointed at everyone.
"Guns, guns, guns," Kara said amused.
"You're up against no ordinary White Martian. His name is Armek. He was my mate," M'gann admitted.
"Is there divorce in Martian land?" Kara asked.
"No," Hank narrowed his eyes.
"Looks like we have to kill him," Kara said enthusiastically.
"Find him already," Hank ordered.
"Oh, fine," Kara said and then blasted Winn with heat vision. He survived the wound and punched Kara to the face with his White Martian claw.
Kara punched him hard sending him to the floor below. Kara leaped off the ledge and fired on him with her heat vision. Armek fled the scene and disappeared inside the building. "Well...shit," Kara said disappointedly.
The remaining DEO agents took up M16 rifles after Kara had cleared each one. The red alert system went active. "It's the reactor core," a DEO agent said looking at the computer. "It's going into overload."
"Why do you need a reactor core?" Kara asked Hank.
"Our power bill was enormous before it came in," Hank said. "If the reactor core goes into meltdown, it will take down this building and ten blocks with it."
"This is Bruce Wayne level stupid," Kara said unimpressed. "You know how I said having the DEO in the middle of the city was a bad idea."
"Wait, he'll kill himself in the blast. We're on lockdown," Alex pointed out.
"He doesn't care. He'll willingly do it if it means my death," M'gann said.
"Damn, you're really unpopular," Kara said amused.
"Can we shut it down manually?" Alex asked.
"No," Hank said flatly.
"That sounds like a serious design flaw," Kara criticized.
"Only the real Winn can unlock it," Hank said.
"Is he even here?" Kara asked.
"To mimic Winn perfectly, he would need a telepathic link to him," M'gann speculated. "Can you scan the building for him?"
"I would but some asshole lined the walls with lead," Kara said looking directly at Hank.
"Search the building," Hank ordered.
"How long until the reactor blows?" Alex asked.
"About fifteen minutes," the female DEO agent said.
Kara and Alex casually strolled through the halls looking for Winn. "So...how are you going to make it up to me for missing my birthday?" Kara asked.
"You're still on about that?" Alex asked incredulously.
"Well, yeah, its either me or Maggie," Kara said immaturely.
"Fuck you, Kara. I deserve to be happy. You wouldn't be saying any of this shit if I had a boyfriend instead," Alex shot back.
"Oh, using the gender card already?" Kara asked unimpressed. "You're with a woman that is a workaholic, alcoholic, sexaholic, cheater, Barenaked Ladies lover, and worst of all, she likes vegan ice cream," Kara pointed out.
"Maybe, I'm attracted to damaged people like Maggie and you," Alex glared at her.
"That's fair," Kara sighed. "It's just that I have abandonment issues from when I was sent off from Krypton, and I feel like you're abandoning me for Maggie."
"I will never abandon you," Alex said sincerely.
"You really shouldn't make promises you can't keep," Kara said as they reached the reactor. Kara punched Alex against the wall nearly killing her.
Alex shook her head and revealed herself to be a White Martian while keeping human form. "Finally, a one-on-one fight without the others to interfere," Kara said pleased.
"You were just fucking with me?" Alex said stunned.
"You have no idea how therapeutic this is," Kara said as she advanced on her with heat vision ready to fry her.
"I wouldn't if I were you," Alex said getting close to the reactor core.
"And here I was going to give you a quick death," Kara shook her head sadly.
Alex kept her ground as Kara walked over to her. She swung at Kara with combinations. Kara didn't even flinch from the attacks. Kara then punched her head around killing the White Martian instantly.
Meanwhile, Hank and M'gann found Winn and Alex in black gue on the walls. "Supergirl, we have Winn...and Alex," he warned her.
"You don't say," Kara replied as she stood over the fallen White Martian.
Kara then heard the mic abruptly cut out as Hank and M'gann were attacked by Armek. Unconcerned, Kara took a cell phone out of her bra. "Hey, Mon. Get your ass over to the DEO. I have something special planned."
Armek went total savage on Hank and M'gann kicking their ass throughout the hallways. The two finally transformed into Green Martians. Kara watched bored as the three fought near the reactor. Mon then appeared at Kara's side.
"You know, I never understand why they would fight as their human selves. Does it require more effort to exist as their normal selves?" Kara wondered.
"Oh shit, oh shit!" Winn said as he tried to stop the reactor meltdown.
M'gann finally took a pipe and sliced through Armek's neck killing him. "God damn, that took forever," Kara said unimpressed.
Winn was about to solve the issue with the core when Kara smashed his keyboard. "What the fuck?" he said stunned.
"Mon, give the White Martians my regards," Kara ordered.
"As you wish," he smirked and then disappeared with the reactor core.
Mars
Mon instantly appeared in the middle of a White Martian city. "Peace!" he shouted at them and then disappeared. The core then exploded destroying the entire city. The cloak went down making the ruined city visible. A NASA Mars rover noticed the explosion.
"Houston, we have a problem," Mars rover command said as they saw it.
After everyone had been cleared by Kara, Hank ended the lockdown. "It's still evening? It felt like a week," Winn said exhausted from his ordeal.
"Aren't you forgetting something," Kara said to Alex.
"Shit! I need to call Maggie," she ran off to call her.
"You prevented Winn from shutting down the reactor. Now, we're on auxiliary power. Do you have any idea how much a reactor core costs?" Hank complained to Kara.
"Just call up Senator Cane and be 'Bitch, where's my money?'," Kara suggested.
"Nuclear fusion energy is best for the environment," Hank told her.
"Having Metropolis be a radioactive crater isn't environmentally friendly and when did you give a shit about the environment?" Kara scoffed.
Hank shook his head in frustration. "Oh, I'm sorry I lost your toy," Kara apologized to him. "Tell me, what's really making you sad."
"M'gann wants to go back to Mars," Hank said disappointedly.
"Damn. Well, you need to give it some time. She's had a rough couple of weeks with you imprisoning her, torturing her, the constant attacks, the near-death experiences, and the death of her mate," Kara said reasonably.
"Maybe you're right," Hank sighed.
Winn came up to Kara. "I'm going to go hang out with James and hopefully not get killed."
"You asking me for permission?" Kara asked him unconcernedly.
"It's just...," Winn said pathetically.
"Go have fun," Kara said to him.
Winn then took off. "Wow, you're really understanding," Alex said to Kara.
"Well, if he dies I can wipe away my tears with hundred dollar bills," Kara said.
Kara and Mon spent the rest of the evening watching the Santa Clause. "So, if I kill Santa Clause, I get to be him?" Mon wondered.
"Yep," Kara confirmed. She then noticed someone approaching. Using her X-ray vision, she saw Alex with a cupcake. Kara opened the door and smiled at the cupcake.
"Happy Earth birthday," Alex said.
"Wow, it even has a 'K' on it," Kara said touched. She took the cupcake and blew it out. She then placed it next to a massive wedding style cake with a Supergirl action figure on top.
"Did Mon give you that?" Alex asked smiling at him.
"No, I ordered it for myself," Kara corrected. "By the way, is Maggie mad you missed the concert?"
"Well, luckily she's very understanding," Alex grimaced.
"She chewed you out," Kara said knowingly.
"Yeah," Alex sighed. "What's with the sweater? I thought you weren't into that feminist bullshit," Alex rolled her eyes at Kara's sweater that said "Power to the girls."
"Look at Mon's," Kara said.
Alex saw that his sweater said "Power to the boys."
"He can't wear that outside," Alex warned.
"I don't see why not. Feminism doesn't succeed when men are whipped. We all succeed when both men and women compete against each other," Kara said and then pointed to a whiteboard on the wall. It was titled "Daily Kill Count" and had 5 under Kara and 50,000 under Mon.
"Did that White Martian look just like me?" Alex asked curiously.
"Well, her breasts were a little bigger," Kara judged.
"When I was under, I still felt connected like a dream. Did you have conversations with it?" Alex asked.
"No, I killed it immediately," Kara lied.
"You know, even though I'm with Maggie, it doesn't mean I'm going anywhere," Alex assured her.
"I understand. I didn't grow up with a sibling and even on Krypton siblings weren't very close. We were so obsessed with our callings and occupations. On Earth, siblings move away from each other, get jobs, have families, and just fade from each other," Kara said.
"That isn't going to happen to us," Alex said seriously.
"I hope not," Kara smiled uncertainly.
At the alien gay bar, Mon took to the mic. "I have something to announce. M'gann is going far away and won't be back. That makes me the bartender in charge here and things are going to be different around here," Mon said to them all.
Loud club music was turned on as Mon worked his hands as a DJ. Laser lights went everywhere as aliens and humans alike danced together. Kara took two champagne bottles and squeezed them hard enough that their corks popped off and liquid poured out. "Let's make enough noise that even Mars can hear it," Mon said to the dancing crowd.
Meanwhile, M'gann entered a White Martian ship. She was immediately put in cuffs and thrown in a cell. The ship then shot towards Mars. "Well...shit," M'gann realized her mistake.
