This is my first time writing Supercorp so hopefully, you enjoy it. This is also an idea I came up with on the fly so bare with me!
Feedback as always is welcome
The Earth was gone, the multiverse was gone, incinerated, no colliding, no merging.
Light flashed behind her eyelids and screams filled her mind, someone was calling her name, she was fighting to get them, whoever they were. Sara's voice rang through her mind,
"At the dawn of time,"
Kara was floating, they had done it. They had saved earth. Or at least one earth. Or, was she dead?
Then, Kara was floating. Hovering in limbo. That feeling when you rock your chair back slightly too far and you're weightless, hopeless and in gravities hands. Then she was falling. Kara didn't fall, Kara flew, but now she was falling and fighting, desperate, not to crash.
Kara jerked awake, her breathing erratic, her heart hammering in her chest. No, no they hadn't done it in time. The earth was gone but no she was here, she was alive. Had they succeeded?
Kara looked quickly around to find a large bedroom, in a brownstone building. But her apartment didn't have a closet or open and large windows. She was sat in a large king size bed with white sheets. Analysing her setting she quickly concluded that:
A. This was not her apartment and,
B. She was very naked.
Kara paled, this wasn't right, she had been saving the earth from the Crisis, she had been with Barry and Sara and Clark. Kara's breathing increased as panic set in. What had happened?
The multiverse had collapsed, her friends, her family were gone, no they were here, they had been rebuilt in a different timeline. Rebuilt in a new universe, this was to be the last universe. It was here, she was here. Alex where was Alex? Kara thought rapidly, she would find Alex, find J'onn, assess the changes. Right. Kara nodded to herself, she had a plan. That didn't explain her current situation. A rapid thumping pulled her from her thoughts as something shifted beside her.
"Oh, my head"
Kara spun around frantically to find a pale shoulder emerge and dark head appear from under the sheets. Her eyes nipped at the beginning of heat vision.
"Lena!"
"Kara!"
Lena clutched the sheets to her chest as she sat up, her mouth dropped open in shock as Kara scrambled for the comforter. They were both naked, Kara could deduce that much. They stared at each other for a long moment their mouths half open in shock, hair dishevelled, eyes wide in panic. Lena's hand clutched her head as she squinted at the Kryptonian.
"What're you doing in my bed?" Lena shouted in shock, anger slowly etching over the surprise on her face.
"You're bed?" Kara squeaked, oh this definitely was not good
"Yes, Kara, my-" Lena seemed to pause looking around, taking in what Kara had taken in previously, "Wait, this isn't my- Where the hell are we?"
"How am I supposed to know?" Kara asked defensively, "Wait this isn't you're apartment?" Kara asked in confirmation. Lena shook her head. She didn't have a brownstone building or a pale wooden bed. Lena shifted, green eyes scrutinised her for a moment and Kara tightened the comforter around her nervously. Len scrunched her face in concentration as she lifted a hand to soothe the rapidly increasing headache she was having. Where was she? And more importantly why were they both naked in a bed that was neither of their own. Lena thought back to before,
"Wait, no, the wave and, ugh, the anti-mater" Lena muttered,
"You remember?" Kara asked quickly, shifting closer to the pale woman. Lena naturally lent back,
"Yeah but Kara, the wave still came, we shouldn't be here, we should be dead" Lena stated watching Kara carefully who nodded,
"It did but they managed to redo the universe into one big universe and now we're all still here but it worked, but it didn't because something not right" Kara summarised ending with a gesture between them.
"Well, obviously Kara because we're in bed together and I can guarantee you that that was not in the redo of the multiverse" Lena snapped.
Kara sighed, climbing out of bed clinging the comforter to her naked body. She didn't want to start arguing with Lena. Not until she knew what was going on.
"We need to go find out what's happening? Heck, find out where we are" Kara stated exasperated already and she hadn't even had coffee yet.
"Well, why don't you just fly out the window and find out?" Lena snapped.
Kara glared but simply turned. Nope, she would leave Lena to calm down and then she would have a rational conversation about how they were going to go about putting this behind them.
Walking from the room, Kara found a hallway leading further into a large penthouse. It was similar to Lena's previous penthouse except it was less white. Light pastels decorated the hallway as she followed the sunlight streaming through the end. Standing at the top of a set of iron stairs she looked around with a frown.
It was in a brownstone building similar to her loft, large windows that looked overlooked the city. A large chef's kitchen with marble worktops, a large light wooden dining table that looked used from family dinners and living room with throws and pillows everywhere, filled the space beneath her. Walking down, Kara glanced around, it was soft and warm. Homely, was what she would have thought if she was visiting. No, she was visiting, this wasn't her apartment but it felt familiar. There was a painting in the corner that she was sure was hers but it was probably just something similar to her work. The large couch and subsequent chairs filled the space, a small reading corner with bookcases caught her attention. The wall behind the chair was lined with white bookcases. A variety of novels from romantic comedies to Homer and the Illiad graced its shelves.
Kara looked around reluctantly, the large television and expensive furnishings made her feel uneasy, she had to find out what was going on for both their sakes, they currently hated each other, well Lena certainly hated Kara, she shook her head feeling sick when something on the bookcase caught her eye. A multiple somethings.
They were photo frames. In a variety of sizes decorated over the shelves filled with varying pictures that she recognised, some with her and Alex, others with her friends. Then, they changed as she looked at more, there were ones of her and her mother that she had no recollection of, another of her and Nia in their superposes but in their normal clothes. It was the one of herself and Lena that caught her eye the most. She had never been to these places. Kara rubbed her head as she tried to think, she hadn't been to a beach with Lena. It was sunset, on a pebbled beach, the soft light of the sunset casting their silhouettes. They were in white. They were close, holding one another.
Oh no. Kara thought as she picked it up. As she did a flicker on her hand made her drop the photo. She didn't hear it crash, she was too busy looking at a simple intertwined silver ring with silver stones embedded in it that graced her left ring finger. Kara could feel the dread wash over her.
"Oh, crap" Kara whispered as she looked at the ring, the pictures, the waking up naked. What had happened? How had this happened? This was not supposed to happen.
"KARA!"
Kara burst into the bedroom, double doors of to the side were flown wide open. Lena was stood in the closet a face of pure rage on her face. In her hand, she held two rings,
"You better start explaining what the hell is going on here?"
So Lena's pissed...
Let me know what you all think of the concept and first chapter, I'm hopefully going to post weekly but who knows when it comes to me, to be honest.
