Mon was escorted by two Insane guards to Rhea on the bridge of the Insane battleship. "Leave us," Rhea said to her guards.
"How's the invasion progressing? Is it as much fun as you hoped?" Mon asked brightly.
"Beyond my wildest dreams," Rhea smiled. "This planet has amazing potential. It's going to be beautiful when we're finished with it."
"Finished with it? What are you planning to do?" Mon asked.
"Build, of course, monuments to our people, especially me," Rhea said arrogantly. "We're going to build grand pyramids like the ones back home."
"Built by human slaves," Mon assumed.
"Well, yes," Rhea said obviously.
"This ship is stocked with the best Insane leaders, warriors, engineers, and scientists. The dark one gave us a short window of opportunity to take them off-world before he destroyed the planet," Rhea revealed.
"You knew he was going to destroy our world, and you did nothing?" Mon asked stunned.
"Darkseid cannot be stopped. He cannot be defeated. He cannot be killed. Your father and I made the best of a shitty situation," Rhea said angrily.
"I saw a mere child defeat Darkseid's best minions," Mon said. "I saw the legend."
"The gap between Darkseid and his best generals is the gap between a star and a planet. Have you ever destroyed a star?" Rhea asked him.
"Well, no," Mon admitted.
"Here, we can rebuild again and when we are strong enough, we can take down Darkseid," Rhea said to him.
"I'm not interested in spreading my seed and popping out babies my whole life. I want my revenge," Mon said to her.
"You really are a simple creature," Rhea said punching him hard to the gut so he would fall over. "You live in a fantasy world."
"And now you're going to show your cooperation by mating with the Kryptonian's adopted human sister," Rhea said to him.
"What the fuck?" Mon wondered.
"It's insurance in case that brat tries to attack us," Rhea said.
"She doesn't really swing that way if you know what I mean," Mon said referring to Alex.
"I don't give a shit," Rhea said coldly. "In accordance with Insane culture, your first wife will always be supreme. You may marry the Kryptonite brat as well, but she will always be second."
"Unless of course, the first wife dies tragically," Mon reminded her.
"In that case, Supergirl will kill you," Rhea reminded him.
Dozens of US fighter jets sped towards the Insane ships and launched missiles. Blue energy shields destroyed the missiles before they could reach the ships themselves. Kara watched passively from the roof of a skyscraper as the fighters fired again with no result. The Insane ships retaliated by firing continuous laser fire at the fighters destroying them all. Kara turned away as burning wreckage fell into the streets.
The DEO gang assembled in the alien gay bar. "Look who found us," Winn said as James entered.
"Report, Olsen," Hank said gravely.
"Insane troops are teleporting everywhere setting up checkpoints and killing resisters. They're instituting their own martial law on the city," James said.
"It's like Independence Day out there with that big mother ship hovering," Winn said.
"We get the reference, Winn," Hank said impatiently.
"Mon-El and Alex are on that ship," Winn added.
"Then we're fucked because that's Kara's weak point. She won't use her powers to strike at that ship so long as Alex is on that ship," Hank realized.
"What about Superman?" James suggested.
"I sent out a distress call to the Justice League. I haven't received a call back," Hank said.
"He could be fighting in the streets for all we know," Winn said.
"If he is, I didn't see him," Maggie said waltzing in.
"How do we fight an enemy like this?" James wondered.
"I may be of service," Lillian Luther said entering the bar with Cyborg Superman at her side.
"Oh really? What's your plan?" Hank asked skeptically.
"We need Supergirl back in action. I stole the schematics for your portal generator and have recreated it at my lab. We get on board the mother ship and take Alex Danvers back," Lillian said simply.
"That ship's security system will detect you," Hank said obviously.
"Once on-board, we will hack into the ship and disable its shields. If you disable the shields of the mother-ship, the shields on the other ships will fall," Lillian speculated.
"Just like Independence Day," Winn said wide-eyed.
"Sounds good. Knock yourself out," Hank smirked.
"We need your help. You've killed most of my men. I need some volunteers," Lillian sneered.
"Alright, I'll do it," Hank said finally.
"That ship is a death trap. Rhea will be keeping an eye on Alex," James pointed out.
"I'll use my shape-shifting abilities to get around. In the meantime, take to the streets," Hank ordered.
Rhea sat on her throne and addressed her lieutenant. "Create a blockade around the city. I don't want anyone leaving," she ordered.
"We're receiving communication from this nation's leader," the lieutenant informed her.
"Put it up," Rhea allowed.
"Rhea, Queen of the Jin-Saiyan. We finally meet," Vice President Mike Pence smirked. "I am the Vice President of the United States."
"Why should I be speaking to you?" Rhea scoffed.
"Because I know the codes to this," Pence said showing her a suitcase.
Rhea froze knowing what that meant. "You're not the president."
"No, he's in an undisclosed location. I speak for him and all Americans when I say that your occupation of Metropolis is an act of war," Pence said confidently.
"I could move my invasion force to Washington DC if you wish," Rhea threatened.
"Just make sure you do it when Congress is in session," Pence joked.
"I'm taking Metropolis for myself. The rest of your pitiful nation is yours," Rhea said to him.
"Sounds good," Pence agreed.
"Wait...what?" Rhea wondered.
"They didn't vote for us anyway," Pence said nonchalantly.
"Well, this was easy," Rhea said unimpressed.
"You're sacrificing Metropolis to these crazy people?" Cat Grant interrupted Pence.
"Insane people," Rhea corrected.
"What the fuck is wrong with you? I think you're the one that needs shock therapy," Cat said to him.
"Cat Grant, the president's press secretary," Pence introduced to Rhea. "Your presence is always a pleasure but unfortunately I don't entertain a woman alone in a room," Pence said to Cat.
"That's sexist," Cat accused.
Pence simply shrugged. A Secret Service agent then entered the room wearing sunglasses and stared at Cat intensely. "Really?" Cat rolled her eyes.
"It's for my protection," Pence smiled amused.
"Afraid of these," Cat said cupping her breasts.
Pence kept eye contact with her eyes unphased. "Maybe, you're the one that's gay," Cat said buttoning up her shirt.
"Or maybe I have the moral restraint to not receive a blow job in the oval office," Pence smirked.
"I can't believe you voted to impeach the president over that little thing," Cat said disgustedly. "If Hillary were president, none of this would be happening. Women are tough, wise, above pettiness, and completely willing to roll up our sleeves to accomplish peace."
"Qaddafi would beg to differ, or he would if he didn't get sodomized and beaten to death by a mob," Pence said calmly.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Rhea asked curiously.
"I'm Cat Grant. I'm kind of a big deal. I am the queen of all media, or I was until I agreed to this shit assignment," she said looking straight at Pence.
"The country appreciates your service," Pence mocked.
"Let me handle this," Cat said taking charge.
"By all means," Pence said relaxed in his chair.
"I have brokered peace between Kayne and Taylor Swift, so I think mediating peace between our worlds should be a piece of cake. And, the future is female. We've all read the t-shirts. So, we are two formidable women, and we can do whatever we want. So, let's talk it out and come up with a harmonious solution, shall we?" Cat said snidely.
"I am going to kill every man on this planet but will spare the women," Rhea allowed.
"Okay, that's progress," Cat allowed.
"So all of my men can have their way with them," Rhea added. "I don't subscribe to your feminist bullshit. We survived because we all worked together as a single unit. As a mother, I want what is best for my son, and his son, and so forth. I'll kill anyone, male or female, that gets in my way," Rhea said to her.
"That's cold," Pence said to a speechless Cat.
"Kill them immediately," Rhea ordered and signed off.
The Insane battleship fired a laser at Air Force One blasting a wing off. The door flew off depressurizing the cabin. Cat grabbed onto the couch for dear life as the plane was about to crash. "Would you like to pray before our impending deaths?" Pence offered calmly as he sat in his chair.
Cat was then sucked out of the plane. Supergirl flew towards her grabbing her in midair. Another beam from the Insane battleship blasted away what remained of Air Force One. Debris scattered on the ground. Kara safely dropped Cat among the debris field.
"Where have you been?" Cat demanded of Kara.
"Where have I been? You left us at Catco to serve that asshole," Kara reminded her.
"I heard about your stunt to defeat Hillary to keep me at Catco. You fucked us over," Cat raged.
"You never told me you planned to have your art director acting CEO," Kara shot back.
"All you care about is your own little world. Have you ever thought about the common good?" Cat asked.
"Sorry to interrupt," Pence said walking over to them perfectly fine.
"How the fuck?" Cat wondered.
"Language," Pence pointed at her.
"How did you survive?" Kara asked.
"The Lord works in mysterious ways," Pence smiled.
"He certainly does have a sense of humor," Kara agreed. "You going to thank God for this miracle while everyone else on board died?"
"We are but dust in the wind," Pence replied. "I know that you're not attacking that ship because your sister is on it. You have until tonight to get your sister. Then, I will be sending a nuke through the star-gate onto the mother-ship," Pence said to her.
"You can't. The explosion will destroy the mother-ship and Metropolis with it," Cat objected.
"They're in God's hands," Pence said simply.
"I can't let you do that," Kara said as she advanced on him.
Kara was blasted a few feet away from a powerful electrical surge. Kara got back to her feet only to feel her throat crushed. She fell to the ground unable to breathe. Pence then calmly took out a cell phone. "Bring a submarine to these arctic coordinates," Pence ordered and then inputted the coordinates to the Fortress of Solitude.
"What are you?" Cat asked stunned.
Pence smiled as he released his hold on Kara. "Don't you remember, Ms. Grant? I'm a deplorable."
Mon and Alex were called onto the bridge with Insane guards watching their every move. "My son, the prince, and his beautiful bride to be," Rhea greeted.
"Wait...what the fuck?" Alex wondered.
"Just go with it," Mon frowned.
"How about no? What the fuck is going on here?" Alex demanded.
"Alex and I are not getting married," Mon turned her down.
"If you don't, I'll kill her and rest of the people in this city," Rhea threatened.
"Well, I tried," Mon muttered.
"I can't marry Mon. That's crazy," Alex objected.
"No, it's Insane," Rhea corrected. "You will marry Mon and then you will give me an heir."
"Oh my God, the boy," Alex realized. "He really is my descendant."
"What are you babbling about?" Rhea asked impatiently.
"She's just excited about it. She hasn't had a man in many many years," Mon said smirking.
"You think this is funny? You can go fuck yourself," Alex said to him.
"And so it begins," Mon sighed.
"You can make this easy or you can make this hard," Rhea said to Alex.
"She prefers it hard," Mon smiled.
"I will never fuck you, ever," Alex glared at him.
"Come on, Alex. Is this really all that bad? I'll let you have as many girlfriends as you want...as long as I get to watch," Mon allowed.
"You're a pig," Alex spat.
"No, Maggie is a pig," Mon corrected.
"Let me be very clear. I have genetic material from both of you, and I can produce your heir in a pod if need be. However, no grandson of mine is going to be a bastard," Rhea said to them.
"Fine, whatever. I'll just divorce his ass later," Alex agreed.
"In Insane tradition, a marriage is consummated shortly thereafter...in front of witnesses," Rhea said.
"Nice," Mon agreed.
"Oh, fuck no," Alex rejected.
"Refuse me and I will start destroying buildings one-by-one starting with hospitals and schools," Rhea threatened.
Pence stood by as navy sailors brought the nuke inside the Fortress of Solitude. Kara watched passively as they placed it in front of the portal projector. Pence then turned to Lillian Luthor, Cyborg Superman, and Hank. "Should you fail, I will order them to send the nuke through."
"We understand," Hank said to him.
"Turn it on," Lillian directed Cyborg Superman.
The projector then turned on giving the fortress a purple glow. Hank, Lillian, and Cyborg Superman instantly materialized onto the Insane battleship. Hank became J'onn and immediately starting kicking ass on the Insane guards. The three of them reached a control panel. Cyborg Superman plugged himself into the system. The shields on all of the Insane ships fell at the same time.
"Their shields are down," Cyborg Superman reported to Pence.
"Very good," Pence said pleased and then made a phone call. Fighters from a US aircraft carrier lifted off and sped towards Metropolis.
Cat and Winn entered the Catco building finding the offices in disarray. "Oh my God," Cat said of the damage.
"I know, the building was hit quite a few times from the Insane ships," Winn said.
"No, not that. This," Cat pointed to free weights in her office. "There are free weights and it smells like ball-sacks and nachos in here."
"It smells masculine, not that I would know anything about that," Winn said.
"Where is James Olsen?" Cat asked curiously.
"He's out fighting as the Guardian," Winn told her.
"You're fucking with me. He's the Guardian?" Cat asked incredulously.
"Yep and I'm his sidekick," Winn said proudly.
Cat rolled her eyes. "No wonder Catco stock has gone to shit since I left. Its acting CEO is punching people in the face."
"It works for Stark Industries," Winn argued. "So, uh, you ready?"
"I am always ready," Cat told him.
On the Insane battleship, Hank sensed the minds of Mon and Alex. "They're close," he said as he opened a door. Insane guards immediately fired on them.
Cyborg Superman fired a laser from his eye and Hank phased his fist through their armor dropping them. "J'onn?" Alex wondered upon seeing him.
"We have to go," J'onn told her.
"We have to get Mon," Alex insisted.
"Alex, the only reason Supergirl hasn't destroyed the ship and killed Rhea is because you're here," J'onn told her.
"Okay," Alex relented.
The four of them made their way to the teleportation room. Cyborg Superman activated the controls and then fired a beam into J'onn's back, dropping him. "Humans only," Lillian smirked as the three of them disappeared back to the Fortress of Solitude.
Using Winn's special camera, Cat hacked into the Insane battleship's hologram projector. "Good evening, Metropolis. I am Cat Grant. Yes, I've been away for a while, but I'm back," she said.
"What...the...fuck...is...this?" Rhea asked her lieutenant.
"Now, I can imagine you're feeling afraid and feeling that your world is spinning out of control. But believe me, you have power and right now you have a job to do: Resist. Resist these invaders with everything you've got. They come with empty promises and closed fists. They promise to make our world great again and yet they know nothing about the people that make this world great. They think they can con us," Cat said.
"Anyone else feeling a little hot in here?" Pence asked as he saw Cat on the fortress's computer screen.
"They think they can beat us into submission. They have no idea who they're up against. Aliens and humans, we need to band together and we need to stand up and fight back. Everyone needs to be a superhero. Everyone needs to get up and say 'Not in my house'. Let us prove to these thugs that we are strong and united, and we are not going to be conquered. And Rhea, you have come to the wrong town. I'm Cat Grant, and I'm not going anywhere," Cat said as she signed off.
The people of Metropolis were inspired by Cat's speech and began marching against the Insane troops. "Your orders, my queen?" a squad leader asked from the ground as humans moved against him.
"Wipe them out...all of them," Rhea replied coldly.
The Insane guards raised their hands and fired on the human crowds creating an instant blood bath. Hundreds were killed within seconds of the fighting. The Insane warriors went on a gleeful killing spree all throughout the city. Humans were either incinerated in energy blasts or beaten to death. Not even the cops or the national guard in the city could put up any kind of defense.
"Foolish of you to broadcast your transmission in your own building, Ms. Grant," Rhea sneered as she targeted the skyscraper.
The Insane battleship fired blasting the top floors of the building and sending debris to the streets below. US fighter jets arrived and fired missiles at the Insane ships creating explosions in the air. "We're receiving damage reports on all ships," Rhea's lieutenant told her.
"Get the shields back up!" Rhea barked at him.
Kara blasted through the window of the bridge. "Kill Alex," Rhea ordered her men.
"She's gone, my queen," her lieutenant said.
Rhea blasted a hole in his chest killing him. Kara casually walked towards Rhea. "Now that Alex is off this ship, I can finally open a can of whoop-ass on you all," Kara said cracking her knuckles.
"Oh really? Did you think your adopted sister was the only loved one in my possession?" Rhea asked.
"Do you mean Mon? You must be joking. He would rather die than be controlled by you," Kara said.
Mon took two fingers and moved them to his forehead. Rhea pointed her index finger at him. Kara got in between them just in time. Mon disappeared and reappeared near to J'onn. He grabbed ahold of him and then disappeared off the ship. Kara smirked as the beam hit her chest. "That tickles," she mocked.
Mon reappeared in the Fortress of Solitude and saw Cyborg Superman and Lillian. Dropping J'onn's body on the floor, Mon raised his hand against Cyborg Superman. "Do your worse, alien scum," Cyborg Superman said to him.
Mon blasted Cyborg Superman incinerating him. He then moved against Lillian. "Don't, she lives for now," Pence said to him.
"You intend to use this nuke to destroy the mother-ship?" Mon asked him as he saw it.
"Supergirl has twenty-four hours to destroy that fleet," Pence allowed.
"Or I can destroy it right now," Mon threatened to destroy the warhead.
"I wouldn't if I were you," Pence said calmly.
"Holy fuck, Mon," Alex said as he pointed his hand at it.
Mon fired on the nuke. The energy beam only made it half-way before it was frozen in time. Mon was thrown against an ice wall breaking him in several places. The energy beam then disappeared.
"What the fuck are you?" Alex asked of Pence.
"I'm a guardian angel of a sort," he said.
"Well, you're doing a shitty job then," Alex glared at him.
"That, my dear, is a matter of perspective," Pence smiled.
"If you're this powerful, then stop the war," Alex said to him.
"I am only an observer. I will not use my powers to intervene," Pence said.
"Yet you became Vice President. If Trump is removed from office or dies, you're in charge," Alex pointed out.
"That isn't going to happen," Pence smiled at her.
"What of those tie-breaking votes?" Alex asked.
"I did those only at the president's behest. Believe me when I say I chose the least powerful position in our government while at the same time observing the man in charge," Pence said.
"Bullshit. You think you can sit on the sidelines for four years?" Alex questioned.
"More like eight," Pence corrected.
"People like you have been my enemy my whole life," Alex said becoming emotional.
"Really? Before you discovered yourself, you and your family were firmly on my side. Don't let your sexuality define who you are. You can choose to support or oppose me based on your reasoning. Don't let people tell you that you must think a certain way because you correspond to a category of people," Pence told her.
"I choose to oppose you because that's how I think," Alex said slightly wavering.
"Good, good," Pence smiled warmly. "Speaking for the president, I am ordering you, Agent Danvers, to stay put."
Kara stared Rhea down. "It's over, Rhea. I have the high ground," she said standing one step above Rhea.
"You underestimate my power," Rhea sneered at her.
"Don't try it," Kara smirked at her.
"When my own husband opposed me, I killed him. Don't think for a moment, I won't do the same to you," Rhea said.
The Insane shields came back online and US fighters retreated. The Insane fleet stayed largely intact over Metropolis. Fires raged down below as the Insane slaughtered anyone that resisted them.
"Super...girl," Rhea said slowly as she circled her.
"I love it when you use your sexy voice," Kara mocked.
"You really thought you'd won. Didn't you?" Rhea said to her.
"It ain't over until the fat lady sings, and you haven't sung yet," Kara shot back. She suddenly got punched to the face, but her head didn't even flinch.
"Really?" Kara said as she saw Superman glaring at her.
