Kara, Mon, Kon, Mara, Brainiac 5, Hank, Alex, and Winn were present for a funeral ceremony of the Vindicators. The coffins were all marked with a red "V" on them. All of them were present on the Vindicator cruiser all wearing their uniforms. Mon came forward and read from a datapad at a podium.
"We are assembled here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. And yet, it should be noted, in the midst of our sorrow, these deaths took place in a time not their own. Our beloved comrades gave their lives to protect and nourish this planet. Of my friends, I can only say this: Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, they were the most human," Mon said somberly.
"You ripped that off from Wrath of Khan," Winn accused.
"It's still beautiful, Winn," Kara shot back.
"Why would you use 'human' as a compliment?" Alex questioned.
"It's not a compliment. They died because they were human as in they were weak as fuck," Mon clarified.
"Damn, fucking savage, dad," Kon smiled.
"Watch your language, you little shit," Kara said to him.
"Okay, I think we should stop before things really get out of hand," Alex said.
"No, let them continue. I like this," Hank smiled amused.
"Do you have anything to say?" Alex asked Brainiac 5.
"No," he replied flatly.
"These people were my friends. They looked after me. They babysat for me. They trained with me, and I laughed with them. They taught me the value of life," Mara spoke up.
"Very good," Kara said condescendingly.
"Let's get this over with," Alex shook her head at the indignity of it all.
The coffins were shot off into space with all present watching them disappear into the stars.
Alex was watching an old movie when she heard a knock on her door. "Enter," she said.
"Look what I found," Kara said dropping in and then allowing Sam and Ruby inside.
Alex stared at Sam in shock but tried to hide it. "And we come bearing carbs," Sam smiled.
"Really glad that you did," Alex choked. "Hi," Alex said to Ruby as she tried not to freak out.
"Who's Wine?" Ruby wondered looking at her cast.
"It's Winn. He's a nerdy co-worker of mine," Alex said while keeping an eye on Sam. "You want to...sign?"
"Of course," Ruby smiled getting a permanent marker.
"Fuck me. I'm supposed to go on a trip and my babysitter just canceled," Sam said irritably.
Kara smirked as she gave Alex a knowing look. "Well, I'm not doing anything, so I'm happy to have Ruby here with me," Alex quickly volunteered.
"I couldn't ask you. Look at your leg," Sam objected.
"Hey, I'm still useful. I'm not disabled," Alex said defensively.
"Come on, mom. Let me stay with Alex. I mean, Maggie isn't here anymore," Ruby pointed out.
Alex was about to say something, but Kara motioned for her to zip it. "That's true," Sam nodded.
"Look, she's a much better babysitter than me. If I were her babysitter, we would be watching the Shinning or some other scary shit," Kara said.
"Wow, that's very inappropriate," Sam remarked.
"I know, right? You should definitely hand Ruby over to my more mature sister," Kara said.
"Are you sure it's okay," Sam said not wanting to impose.
"Yes, absolutely," Alex smiled.
"You're a lifesaver," Sam said gratefully and then got a buzz from work. "I have to go. Have fun," Sam said taking off.
Kara came over to Ruby. "Aren't you the most adorable hostage ever," Kara said pinching her cheek.
Alex took Kara aside away from Ruby. "What the fuck is going on?" she asked freaked out.
"So, what I have determined is that Samantha is totally unaware of her alter ego. We're safe around her as long as she doesn't turn into Reign," Kara said.
"We don't know what can trigger her," Alex said obviously.
"Well, we can't kill her and we can't let her get away either. Having her daughter is the best leverage we have," Kara said.
"You set this whole thing up. I have a broken leg. If Reign comes in here, I am totally fucked!" Alex said.
"Which is why you're leaving with the kid," Kara said and then walked over to Ruby.
"Are you staying, too?" Ruby asked Kara.
"Oh, I would love to, but Kara has a million better things she would rather do," Kara said and then placed a chloroform cloth over her mouth and nose.
Ruby was soon knocked out cold. "You're terrible with kids. You know that, right?" Alex rolled her eyes.
"That's why I accelerated their growths, so I wouldn't have to deal with it for eighteen years," Kara said as she picked Ruby off the couch.
Kara and Alex strolled into the DEO. "Test this little shit for demonic energy," Kara gave Ruby over to Brainiac 5.
"I'm slightly surprised you're back, Agent Danvers," Hank said upon seeing her.
"Well, Kara made my apartment a huge target, so I'd rather be here than anywhere else," Alex said bitterly.
"I can fix your leg instantly," Brainiac 5 offered.
"Not until after I have made the disability claim," Alex told him.
"Which I will deny," Hank scoffed.
"Why would you do that? You get unlimited money," Alex said pissed off. "I clearly broke my leg in that fight against Reign at the New York Stock Exchange."
"Yeah, but we don't exist, so you don't exist, and your claim doesn't exist," Hank smiled.
"Such an asshole," Alex glared at him.
"Anyway, we have more important things to discuss," Hank said giving Winn the floor.
"We combed through the Fort Rozz manifest and found a Kryptonian priestess who apparently didn't escape with the others," Winn said showing her profile pic.
"Jindah Kol Rozz," Kara eyed the screen. "She must be important to have the prison station named after her. Odd that my uncle and aunt never mentioned her ever. Odd that you two never looked into this."
"Are you trying to imply that this is a retcon?" Winn wondered.
"I'm not implying anything, Winn. I'm flat out telling you," Kara clarified. "What does it matter anyway? I threw the station into the sun."
"That's what we all thought but apparently you fucked up because it's still orbiting the sun as we speak. As a Kryptonian, she's soaking up all that radiation," Hank said to her.
"You know what? This is all bullshit. The priestess, the space station, the connection to Reign. It's all bullshit," Kara scoffed.
"Be it as it may, the radiation is so strong that it will sterilize any male that gets on it," Hank said.
"You know, having your sexual organs on the outside completely exposed is perhaps a serious design flaw," Kara mocked.
"Take it up with God," Hank said dismissively. "We, therefore, need an all-female team to lead this rescue/assassination mission."
"Well, you're fucking high if you think I'm sending my daughter there," Kara said quickly.
"Come up with your own female Expendables then," Hank ordered.
Kara walked into a diner and sat down not bothering to look at the menu. "You ready yet?" the waitress asked impatiently.
"Yeah, I'm looking for the free toast option, and I'm just not seeing it," Kara said.
"I'm going to go on break and when I come back, you better order something that's real," the waitress said and walked off.
Kara smiled amused and then followed her outside quickly turning into Supergirl. Livewire smoked a cigarette and drank from a beer bottle as Supergirl walked up on her.
"You drinking on the job...again, Livewire," Kara asked condescendingly. "Or should I say, Rosanne? Really?"
"How did you find me?" Livewire asked annoyed.
"I've been keeping tabs ever since I let you go," Kara said.
"I'm literally electricity. You can't track me. That sounds like bullshit," Livewire doubted.
"And yet, here we are," Kara smirked
"Well, as you can see, I'm making an honest living now," Livewire said awkwardly.
"As it happens, I need someone that can be a DJ for my kid's Birthday party," Kara said.
"Really? Wait, you're fucking with me, aren't you?" Livewire glared. "You here to fight. Wait until after brunch."
"I'm not here to fight you...today. I'm here to recruit you for my F-Force," Kara said.
"The what force?" Livewire asked confused.
"It's all-female superhero action team," Kara said enthusiastically.
"My help? I fucking hate you. You ruined my life," Livewire pointed out.
"I know we've had our differences, but I know who you are deep down. I know that you were only a liberal on talk radio to please Cat Grant. I know that you hated every single day you were forced to say things you knew were bullshit. You're a conservative Republican who voted for Trump, aren't you?" Kara said of her.
Livewire said nothing to that. "Reign is killing people for their political and religious beliefs. These are your people. This is your opportunity to be a hero and save them," Kara said.
"You're the most powerful being on the planet. Why do you need my help?" Livewire asked.
"I need you to shock Reign so hard that it knocks her out but doesn't kill her. I am so strong that one little punch could kill her and then she resurrects. We have to defeat her but not kill her. We also have to make sure she doesn't rage-quit on us. I need you to give her the shocker," Kara said.
"Alright, how do we set this trap of yours?" Livewire asked.
"We're going into space. You can be the first woman astronaut to get close and personal with the sun," Kara said.
"Well...fuck it," Livewire agreed.
Winn explained the DEO mainframe to Brainiac 5. "And this is where the magic happens. From here, we can monitor and communicate with the Vindicator cruiser," Winn said proudly.
"Incredible. You rely on this to keep people safe? This is the technology that backs up Supergirl when she goes into battle?" Brainiac 5 asked as he looked around.
"It is," Winn said awkwardly.
"I can hack into the world's nuclear silos and launch a nuclear holocaust. I can reprogram drones to assassinate whoever I want. I can control the entire content of the Internet. With a simple thought, I could delete the entire porn industry. I can monitor millions of phone calls, texts, and messages instantaneously. I can even use people's phones to create a sonar system to locate whoever I want and if that doesn't work, I can hack into every satellite on the planet. I can control every electrical plant on the planet sending your world back into the Dark Ages if I so choose," Brainiac 5 said to Winn.
"Wow, I feel so irrelevant now," Winn said stunned.
"I could man the DEO all by myself. However, there is one thing that alludes me. That is why I need you, biological units," Brainiac 5 said.
"What would that be?" Winn asked curiously.
"There are unexplained phenomena that can neither be detected, calculated, or tested. It is the realm of the spiritual. Until I figure it out, I still find you all useful," Brainiac 5 said.
"Good to know," Winn said awkwardly.
"Do not despair, Winn. Of all the humans I have encountered, you are the fittest to take my place on the cruiser," Brainiac 5 said to him.
"Okay," Winn said, uncertain what that would entail.
Kara escorted Livewire inside the DEO. "What the fuck is wrong with you? Why did you bring her here?" Hank asked.
"You told me to make a team. Well, I made one," Kara said and then showed Psi being escorted by DEO men.
"You brought in someone that could fry all of our equipment and data and another one that can mentally disable us and read all of our secrets," Hank raged.
"There's no need for concern. Their powers have no effect on me. I'll kill them both if they prove...uncooperative," Brainiac 5 said to Hank.
"You're one scary mother-fucker. You know that?" Hank said to him.
"I know. I know everything," Brainiac 5 replied.
"Perhaps, you should go on this mission then," Hank considered.
"No, there is no mainframe on this planet that can hold the information I carry. If this unit were to be destroyed, all of that information would be lost," Brainiac 5 rejected.
"I'm not here to cause trouble. Reign is targeting the banks, the very places I steal from," Psi said seriously.
"Assuming you ever get released," Hank said doubtfully.
"Please," Psi rolled her eyes.
"Alright, F-Force. Let's move," Kara said to them.
The Vindicators cruiser took off and headed into space towards the Fort Rozz space station. Inside the ship, Kara looked over a hologram of the station. "How do we find this bitch?" Psi asked.
"We're just going to have to search the whole thing," Kara said.
"Don't you have X-ray vision?" Livewire asked.
"Okay, smartass, for your information, the station is coated completely in lead," Kara said annoyed.
"Not really feeling like a space-cadet. This is boring," Livewire said.
"Yeah, I agree," Psi chimed in.
"Okay, how about this," Kara said opening the ceiling. A force-field kept the air in as they were exposed to space. Psi and Livewire stared memorized by the stars. "Yep, drink it all in. You guys are the only humans to have gone this far from Earth."
"It's wonderful," Livewire said.
"The sun is so much larger now," Psi commented.
"Yeah, as you all know, I can survive in space so don't fuck with me or this force field goes down," Kara told them both.
The Vindicator cruiser docked with Fort Rozz. Kara went over to Psi, removed her blocker, and then put it on her head. "I thought you could resist me," Psi mocked.
"That was my daughter. You're lucky your fight was with her. I would have killed you," Kara said.
"How did you train your daughter to defend her mind so well?" Psi asked.
"I didn't. Barney did...as if he knew she would need it," Kara said suspiciously.
The three came upon the door leading to the station. Kara easily twisted the knob allowing them inside. Kara then felt immediately sick as she fell to the floor. "Oh, shit," she said as she could barely breathe.
"Well, this isn't something you see every day," Livewire quipped.
"What appears to be the problem?" Brainiac 5 asked.
"The air is filled with Kryptonite," Kara said painfully.
"We should abort mission," Hank said seriously.
"No, fuck that. I can handle this," Kara said getting back to her feet.
The three went looking around the prison cells and were suddenly ambushed by a female prisoner. "You wear the uniform from the House of El. How dare you show your face around here," she said.
Livewire shocked her but the female prisoner was able to withstand it. She smacked Livewire to the head. Psi then used a psychic attack but that also failed. The female prisoner smacked Psi to the floor. She then advanced on Kara expertly hitting her. The weakened Kara fell to the ground as she was given a good beating.
An energy blast hit the female prisoner to the back stunning her. Livewire got back up and used electrical whips on the female prisoner to keep her at bay. Kara got back and looked over the fourth figure. "Well...shit."
Kara stared Mara down. "What the fuck did you think you were doing?" she yelled at her.
"You have a real gratitude problem," Mara said dressed as Supergirl.
"This station is filled with Kryptonite dust, and we're dealing with a Kryptonian priestess that has powers we don't even know about," Kara told her.
"I saw how you got your butt kicked. At least, I can resist the Kryptonite a little better than you can," Mara pointed out.
"She's right. With your powers weakened, we might as well be three humans," Psi said still rubbing her temple from being smacked.
"That's not the point. If I need to, I could destroy this station from the inside. I can survive in space. You cannot," Kara said to Mara.
"Oh, fuck us, right?" Livewire said not surprised.
"You two are expendable," Kara said to the two criminals. "You are not," Kara said to Mara. "How the fuck did you even get on board?"
"Don't look at me. You took my blocker off right before we got onto the station," Psi said innocently.
"Please, Barney gave me the code a long time ago," Mara said dismissively.
"I should tear that little imp apart," Kara said pissed.
"No, it's not his fault. I didn't tell him I was here," Mara defended him.
"He knows more than he lets on. Every time he talks, it's like he breaks the fourth wall like he knows the future," Kara said.
"He said the records from this time period are lost," Mara said defensively.
"Maybe he lied. Did that ever occur to you?" Kara asked her.
"Barney doesn't lie," Mara said naively.
"Let me tell you about Barney. He's from the same piece of cloth as his father, a Kryptonian computer that took all the information he could gather by force and then destroyed that world so no one else could learn from it. If he wanted to, he could nuke the entire planet. We could go home and have all life on the planet be vaporized. The only reason I trust him is that, from all appearances, he genuinely wants to continue learning about life. But when he gets bored with us, he'll backstab us without a second thought," Kara told her.
"He saved my life," Mara said flatly.
"Of course he did. Just as I would save his. We're Vindicators. It's what we do. It's part of our stupid code," Kara said.
"He cares for me and...," Mara argued.
"He's a fucking machine!" Kara said obviously.
"I...like him," Mara confessed.
"Oh, Jesus," Livewire rolled her eyes.
Psi smiled as she ate popcorn. Kara glared at both of them and then burned away Psi's popcorn with her heat vision. "Really?" Psi shook her head as she dropped the burning bag on the floor.
"You are eight years old, alright. You're not allowed to like anyone," Kara said.
"You accelerated my growth. I've reached full maturity," Mara pointed out.
"We're not having this conversation, right now. It's a good thing we have a prisoner because I am in desperate need of a punching bag, right now."
Kara stormed into the prisoner holding cell. The prisoner lurched towards Kara in rage as she approached. "I'm looking for Jindah Kol Rozz. You can make this easy or hard. Between you and me, I always like it hard," Kara said.
"You're all a bunch of fools," she spat.
"She's not wrong," Livewire joked.
"The last one to talk to Jindah never returned, but we did hear her screams," the prisoner said.
"That's not really your concern. If you don't tell me what I want to know, I guarantee you'll be screaming, too," Kara said to her.
"Jindah is in the dark corridor," she said.
"What the fuck does that mean?" Kara wondered. She then took a datapad showing a map of the space station. "I want you to point on this here map where she is."
"You can't expect me to give you information that could lead to other prisoners being killed," the prisoner scoffed.
"Well, no, that's exactly what I expect you to do. If you don't, I'm going to let my friend Livewire shock you to death," Kara said.
"Do your worst," the prisoner replied.
"Alright, Livewire, go to town!" Kara told her.
"With pleasure," Livewire said as she shocked the hell out of her.
Kara exited the torture room and met up with Psi and Mara. "We've lost communications with the DEO, and we are falling into the star," Mara reported.
"Well...shit," Kara said.
Kara looked over the computer console. "So, we can't free ourselves from the space station because the docking system is jammed. We don't have enough thrust to bring both us and the station out of range of the star. You know what? This is bullshit. I don't need this extra dramatic tension. We haven't even started yet," Kara said peeved.
"We still have one or two hours," Mara said helpfully.
"Why are you all so relaxed about this?" Psi asked.
"I can go outside the ship and push us out of orbit," Kara said nonchalantly.
"Then why not do that?" Psi asked.
"Because it gives me awesome leverage over the two of you," Kara said obviously.
"You're fucked up. Do you realize that? You are the worst superhero I have ever heard of," Psi said.
"But you have heard of me," Kara smirked.
The three of them could hear the prisoner's screams in the background. "Psi, extract the information we need from her," Kara ordered her.
"I was wondering when you would ask. God damn," Psi said as she walked off.
"Do you torture people to get information out of them or to punish them?" Mara asked her mother.
"Yes," Kara replied.
"But under torture, they will tell you anything you want to hear," Mara said confused.
"That's why you ask them questions about something you don't give a shit about you already know. Then, when they lie, I know it already. Also, I corroborate everything they say with already existing evidence," Kara said simply.
"You see this map. Based on Hank's information, she should be here. However, we don't know that for sure. If the prisoner confirms what we think is the right location then its probably true. You never use a confession from torture as your only method of getting information," Kara taught.
"I don't approve of torture," Mara said innocently.
"Good for you. You stick to your guns no matter how naive they may be," Kara smiled warmly and gave Mara a pat on the head.
Psi and Livewire returned. "She's here," Psi said pointing to the location where Kara already knew she was at.
"You see, that's called corroboration," Kara said to Mara.
Kara opened the weapons armory and took out plasma rifles. "I'm not here to fuck around. If it moves, you kill it," Kara told the group.
"What about our prisoner?" Livewire asked.
"Oh, yes, Psi, I want a complete memory erasure," Kara ordered.
"Done," Psi smirked as she was finished.
"Good," Kara said and then blasted the confused prisoner to the face.
"The fuck?" Psi wondered.
"I want them to feel confused and helpless before I kill them," Kara said nonchalantly.
"Damn," Psi said amazed.
"Oh, you only fought the PG version of me," Kara said to Psi.
"Thanks, mother," Mara muttered.
"Alright, diamond formation around Psi. We need her to help us find the priestess," Kara ordered.
The four went through the tunnels of Fort Rozz in a diamond formation with their rifles at the ready. As prisoners tried to ambush them from all sides, the four of them fired their plasma rifles taking them out. Eventually, their plasma rifles ran out of juice and were thrown away.
Kara and Livewire then made small talk down the halls.
"So, we're looking to get information that will help us kill Reign, huh?" Livewire asked.
"Actually, we're here so we can separate Reign from her host in a peaceful non-violent kind of way," Kara corrected.
"You really think you're going to get through to her?" Livewire asked skeptically.
"I got through to you, didn't I?" Kara pointed out.
"Err...no, you didn't," Livewire recalled.
"Yeah, you're right," Kara smirked.
"I volunteered for this mission to kill Reign," Livewire said frustrated.
"I get what you're saying, but Reign's host is a friend of a friend of mine...so, we have to keep her alive," Kara said.
"You're fucking with me, aren't you?" Livewire realized.
"Got me," Kara grinned.
Kara was then whisked away by a demonic fog. "Did you guys see what just happened?" Livewire asked incredulously.
"There is a strong presence nearby," Psi said.
"Yeah, no shit," Livewire said condescendingly. "If we don't get her back, we're all fucked."
Kara came face-to-face with Jindah. "Daughter of Alura," she recognized.
"Jindah Kol Rozz?" Kara asked.
"You know it is me and yet you ask anyway. Uncertainty will be your doom," Jindah said.
"It's just that you look a lot older and uglier in person than your prison photo," Kara smirked.
"I know why you came," Jindah glared at her.
"Oh really?" Kara said skeptically.
"Reign will destroy you," Jindah said confidently.
"I don't know how to put this...but I'm the strongest being in the universe. I've beaten Reign's ass quite a few times already," Kara said.
"You know nothing about destruction," Jindah said to her.
"Bitch, I am destruction," Kara said wide-eyed.
"I sense the darkness within you," Jindah sensed.
"No shit?" Kara wondered.
"I have languished in misery because of you," Jindah said angrily.
"I'm not apologizing," Kara replied automatically.
"Soon, your pretty skin will be scales in hellfire," Jindah said to her. "When the other World Killers unite: pestilence and purity."
"You're going to tell me how to defeat Reign for good, or I'm going to take great pleasure in kicking your old wrinkly ass. You understand me?" Kara said to her.
Reign then appeared behind them. "My child. Our time has come. Deliver me from this prison. Together, we will bring anguish upon our enemies," Jindah said approaching her.
Reign fired heat vision into Jindah's chest killing her instantly. "Yeah, saw that coming a mile away," Kara smiled amused.
"My powers are beyond the physical. The Kryptonite in the air is nothing to me," Reign said advancing on Kara.
"We need not be enemies, you and I. I sense the good in you," Kara said with false sincerity.
"Spare me," Reign replied dismissively.
"I am invincible and you resurrect every time I kill you. Will we just fight forever?" Kara asked.
"When the other World Killers join me, even you will not be able to stop me," Reign said confidently.
"Can there be peace between us?" Kara asked her.
"Peace? No peace," Reign replied.
"What do you want us to do?" Kara asked finally.
"Die," Reign replied demonically.
Livewire then intervened blasting Reign with continuous electricity. "Get us out of orbit before we all fry," Livewire said to Kara.
"Don't die. I want to kick your ass again," Kara said to Livewire.
"Don't tell me what to do," Livewire replied.
Livewire let loose sparking around the room and firing electrical bursts at Reign. In turn, Reign fired heat vision at her. "You're a nuisance," Reign said of her.
Livewire materialized in front of Reign and grabbed her wrists shocking Reign as hard as she could. "You've grown weak, Leslie," Reign mocked unaffected.
Mara then got in between them blasting the two apart. Mara ignited into Super Insane mode and fought Reign hand-to-hand. Psi then targeted Reign's mind forcing her to her knees. Mara took the opportunity to beat the fuck out of Reign as Psi kept her mind locked on Reign.
"This is for Lightning Lad," Mara smacked Reign hard to the face. "This for Bouncing Boy," Mara kicked her to the stomach. "This is for Triplicate Girl," Mara said as she gave Reign three quick jabs to back. "This is for Timber Wolf," Kara said as she broke Reign's nose. "This is for Chameleon Boy," Mara said blasting Reign to the face. "This is for Phantom Girl," Mara said as she knife chopped Reign's throat.
"And this is for me," Mara said head-butting Reign to the floor.
"Aahhh!" Reign fell to the floor in pain.
Mara powered up an energy attack to kill Reign. "Justice is served. You're a girl after my own heart. Let us die together. I'll see you in hell," Reign said to her.
Mara hesitated and dissipated the energy orb in her hand. "I'd rather see in jail."
Reign suddenly grabbed Mara's throat and flung her to the floor. Her eyes glowed red for a killer strike. "Good girl, Barney has taught you well. Noble, stupid, but noble," Reign said to her.
Livewire then tackled Reign and shocked her as hard as she could. Reign furiously tried to throw her off of her and then tore through the spaceship. Psi and Mara held on for dear life as the room became depressurized. Reign continued to struggle against Livewire as they descended towards the sun.
Kara watched as a black sparky object fell towards the sun. "Leslie?" Kara wondered.
Livewire held on for as long as she could as her electrical body became unstable from the sun's powerful magnetic field and dissolved away. Reign was sucked into the sun's gravity well and was consumed by the flames.
Kara pushed the cruiser and Fort Rozz out of danger and then went inside. The emergency force fields sealed the holes that had been made to the station. Mara and Psi were on the floor exhausted and out of breath. Kara walked up to the two of them.
"Where's Leslie?" Kara asked.
Mara and Psi looked away. "Well...shit," Kara realized.
Kara finally got the docking bay door to unjam and detached from Fort Rozz. She then piloted the Vindicator cruiser back to Earth and landed in the bay near Metropolis. Kara, Mara, and Psi made their way onto the beach.
"You going to send me back to prison or kill me?" Psi asked.
"Neither. You're free to go," Kara said to her.
"Thanks for making me an astronaut. That was really cool," Psi said gratefully.
"Sure, no problem," Kara said subdued.
"I'm sorry about your friend," Psi said and then walked away from them.
"What did we accomplish?" Mara asked her mother.
"I don't really know," Kara admitted.
Alex waited for Ruby to wake up. When she did, Ruby was oblivious that she had been drugged. There was a knock on the door. Alex opened the door and let Sam in. "Hey, she's alive," Alex said.
"I missed you," Sam said to her daughter. "How did it go?" Sam asked Alex.
"A total disaster," Alex smiled. "I mean what a nightmare."
"I know, she's rough, right?" Sam stared at Alex directly.
"How was your work trip?" Alex asked.
"I had to downsize someone who was revealing secrets to the competition," Sam said without emotion.
"That's tough," Alex allowed.
"Sometimes, people who admire you the most end up being your greatest liability," Sam said.
Alex frowned feeling very self-conscious. "Well, it was nice having Ruby over. She's a very good sleeper."
"So am I," Sam nodded and then left with Ruby out the door.
Alex turned to Kara who was sitting in the corner out of view. "Well, that was weird."
"There are to be two others like her. How do I defeat something that won't die?" Kara wondered.
"We'll figure it out," Alex said confidently.
"I'm scared, Alex," Kara admitted.
"Scared of Reign? You kicked her ass how many times now?" Alex scoffed.
"Not for me. For everyone else," Kara said.
Kara had dinner with Cat Grant at an expensive restaurant. "To Leslie," Cat and Kara toasted as they drank a glass of wine down.
"So many memories," Kara wiped away a tear.
"Like how I transferred her to traffic resulting in her getting electrocuted," Cat recalled.
"Or when I transferred my essence to her giving her super-powers," Kara said.
"I remember the two of us standing over her comatose body mocking her," Cat said using a napkin to wipe away tears.
"We never did sign that guest log," Kara shook her head.
"What does the story of Leslie teach us?" Cat wondered.
"Her story reminds me of the hit 'Greatest Love of All' by Whitney Houston. It's one of the best, most powerful moving songs ever written. Its universal message crosses all boundaries and instills one with the hope that it's not too late to better ourselves," Kara said reflectively.
"That's so beautiful," Cat applauded.
So, I heard you have a son and daughter now...from the future no-less," Cat said.
"Yeah, they're a handful," Kara admitted.
"I would suggest we have another opportunity to unite our families, but Adam won't talk to me, and Carter is confused as to what gender he/she wants to be," Cat said.
"The things we parents have to deal with," Kara said understanding.
"I'm already bored lying for Trump every day. What about you?" Cat asked.
"Same, I mean, the work at the DEO anyway," Kara agreed.
"What do you plan to do afterward?" Cat asked.
"Oh, I don't know, maybe travel to distant worlds and kill stuff," Kara said thoughtfully.
"I've already lined up a publisher for my tell-all when I resign or get fired," Cat said.
"I'll read it," Kara said having no intention of doing so.
"Don't lie to me," Cat glared at her.
"You need to come back to Catco. Lena is a total square. I called in sick and she visited my apartment to make sure I was sick. I mean, what the actual fuck?" Kara said.
"I am so surprised that you have outlasted me, Winn, and Snapper at that place. And now you're the new journalism editor," Cat smiled.
"Yep, I fail upwards," Kara smiled back.
"I need a funeral speech for Leslie. Can you write it for me?" Cat asked.
"As you wish, my master," Kara agreed and then clinked glasses.
At their apartment, Mara looked at herself in the mirror. In a flash, her eyes became a pale white and then back to normal. "You know what you have to do," a voice in her head said to her.
Kon entered the apartment and sat on the couch. "Hey, do you know if Barney has fixed my sword yet?" he asked.
"I had other things on my mind today," Mara said to him.
"Okay, whatever," Kon said dismissively and began playing video games.
Mara then rushed out of the bathroom, grabbed Kon by the throat, and threw him out the window.
