"Aliens!" Nate and behrad say at the same time. Then comes their fist bump. "It's a whole new level, bro! I mean, I know we've done crossovers with aliens before and we fought the Dominators but-"
"Oh my God, do you think it's them?"
"Actually – "
"Where is everyone!?" Ava's voice interrupts the guys' conversation and takes them to an uneasy feeling. The rest of the legends catch up with them in the bridge just in time to see the enfuriated captain walk through the door. "There you are!" She says, moving her arms around like she always does when she's stressed. "Listen to me, while Sara is… while she's not here I am in charge, so don't you ever do that again."
After a few seconds of silence, Nate steps forward.
"Ava, you're our friend." He says.
"You're a legend" Behrad adds, also stepping forward.
"You're family." Zari states with a smile.
"Yes, and sometimes we knock out a member of the family to prevent them from doing something stupid." Nate reminds them. They all agree.
Ava shares a sad smile, Nate, Behrad and Zari give her a group hug.
"Did she have a good rest, Gidget?" Zari asks aloud.
"Yes, miss Tarazi, miss Sharpe herself has stated, and I quote, 'Fully recovered and ready to kick some ass'"
"Where have you all been? Please don't tell me you screwed things up for the better again…" Ava asks.
"Nah, we were just doing field work." Nate says.
"We revisited the place where…" Astra started.
"And we did some deductions, love." John finished. Ava asked him to please don't call her love. Then he continued. "It appears to us that Sara has been taken from above."
"Aliens!" Behrad explains.
"Aliens? Why would aliens want Sara? Wait, do you think it could have been the Dominators?"
"We… only got to the Aliens! Part." Nate says.
"I need a beer." Mick decides, and leaves the bridge.
"Wait we know aliens, right?" Ava says, her brain working at full speed now. "Gideon, hail The Tower."
"Right away, captain."
Less than a minute later, there's a conversation going on in the screens of the bridge. Ava is surrounded by her friends, Zari's hand on her shoulder, while she speaks.
"Oh thank God there's someone there. Hello, this is Ava Sharpe and the Legends, you must be Alex Danvers."
"Yes I am, how can I help you? Is there something wrong?"
"Our captain, Sara Lance, is missing."
"Sara?" Alex is surprised and concerned.
"We've been looking everywhere, for days. No sign of her. After some extra research today the team believes aliens must have taken her. As team Supergirl is used to aliens maybe you could help us?"
Alex gives Ava a reassuring look. "Sure, we will. Kelly and I will start by checking the DEO, if there has been unusual alien activity they will know. Right now Jonn and Supergirl are solving some problems downtown, we'll reach out to you as soon as we have something."
"Thank you, Alex." Ava says, relief written on her face for the first time in days. "Oh, one more thing!" She remembered. "The unusual alien activity… it was in 1977. I'll get Gideon to send you the details."
Alex seemed a bit confused for a second. "Oh yes, time travel… we'll get to work."
And the screens went silent. Silence filled with relief and hope. Silence only interrupted by Gideon's voice announcing a disruption in the timeline.
Ava immediately turned to look at the Legends.
"What did you do?" she asked.
"I swear it wasn't us." Behrad says, with his hands up.
"He is right, captain." Gideon confirms. "I detected multiple fractures in the timeline, from multiple sources quite unclear."
"You mean time is breaking again?"
"But this time it's not our fault!" Nate wants to be clear in this point.
"It is in fact breaking" Gideon admits. "I detect many displacements in time and space, as if –"
"As if the multiverse organizes itself again?" Nate asks. "That's what Sara told us, right? In the crisis the multiverse was gone and the Paragons made a new one. Now we know some different Earths are together in one…"
"That reorganization could be causing the alterations in the timeline, Gideon?" Ava asks, her eyebrows wrinkled in concern.
"That's correct, captain. However, as I said before, the sources of the anomalies are quite unclear. Some of them don't seem to be coming from Earth Prime at all."
"Do you mean they come from other planets?" Behrad asks.
"I mean they come from other universes." Gideon answers.
"Wait, so the multiverse is a multiverse again?"
"I can't confirm that, mister Constantine."
"And how do we travel to other universes. Can we even do that?" Zari says.
"We did it once, by accident. We went to a Star City on another Earth." Mick startles everyone with his thick voice, while leaning against the wall drinking.
"Buckle up, Legends, we are going to fix some anomalies in THIS universe so we can A.L.O.H.A our way to finding out how to move through the MULTIVERSE." Ava announces, and the Legends go their separate ways to get ready.
"Gideon, set a course." She adds. And then, alone in the bridge, she whispers:
"It doesn't matter what universe you're in, my love. We will bring you home."
