The only sounds that were heard in the car, besides the sound of Atrocita's dark echoes of her voice giving directions, were the roar of the SUV engine and the DEO scanner.
When Atrocita wasn't telling Alex where to go she sat in silence.
Saying that the silence was uncomfortable was an understatement, but having nothing to talk about wasn't the problem, the problem was when Atrocita looked in Alex's direction she saw the DEO agent shrouded by a light red aura of anger.

This didn't bug Atrocita in the least, hell she had anger and rage running through her veins 24/7. Rage and anger are what kept her alive. Atrocita just wasn't used to talking to people, especially about their feelings. Sure she would chat amongst the other Red Lanterns but the only thing they felt was, well… anger. She wanted to try though. From what she saw at the DEO, Agent Danvers and Supergirl seemed pretty close and if Atrocita was going to gain their trust, she knew she had to put in the effort and make a connection with both Supergirl and the agent that sat adjacent to her.

Ok think Atrocita, what can you talk about? We just need to get the ball rolling, open the lines of communication. WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE GOING TO TALK ABOUT? PANIC! Oh god this is so awkward!
And it was starting to show, as the lantern started to fidget and move about uncomfortably in her seat, not able to sit still.
Calm down lantern and just think, what do you know? She's angry. Ok, that's something! We are experts on anger so, maybe lets gently open up to her see if she'll bite. Like if we wanted to sleep with her you would start by slowly striping away your own clothing to show her that you are in it just as much as she is, right? Ok! And…
Atrocita took a deep breath, "So. Danvers, uh why the anger huh?

Alex gave her a side glance. "What are you talking about?" she said, sounding a little edgy.
"You're giving me anger vibes over here Danvers… so since we are practically strangers to one another feel free to spill your worries. I won't judge."
Alex squinted her eyes in wonder on why the lantern would ask such a thing. Could it be she's looking for a weakness to exploit or maybe she could just really be asking in a kind gesture, Alex thought that the latter would be unlikely so she raised her walls. "I've known you for a whole two, three hours Lantern, I'm not telling you anything. Not until I'm sure what your angle is."

Atrocita rolled her eyes. "Do I have to have one? I'm trying to open up the lines of communication here. We are headed towards a guy who's probably going to try and kill us and if we don't communicate then this guy is going to have an advantage over us. I can see you're stressed and angry and don't bother telling me you're not because I can plainly see it, seeing anger is kinda my thing if you haven't noticed."

Alex didn't reply and it was starting to bother the Lantern. With a hint of annoyance in her voice Atrocita tried to break down the great wall of Alex.
"Ok. Fine. I'll tell you what I think you're mad about. You're confused. Plain and simple. You are confused about something that is a big part of you or your life and you're mad at yourself because you didn't see it before. Add the stress of work and confusion turns to anger. So, how'd I do?"

Atrocita saw the uncertainty in Alex's eyes. As she takes quick glances at the woman in red and starts to breathe a tad heavier.
"I'm not trying to make you uncomfortable Alex," The Lantern said in a soft voice. She knew the agent had a good heart. She saw it when Danvers was talking to Supergirl. Maybe she has to offer something of herself first to show the agent that she truly meant no harm. Equivalent exchange. "I want to help, Danvers. And I know from what people think they know of Red Lanterns that makes it hard to believe but it's the truth. I've been alone for a long time. I saw how horrible the world truly is at a young age and because of that I kept myself at a distance from everyone and anyone I could get emotionally attached too. When I saw Supergirl out there doing so much good out in the world it made me think that maybe the world isn't as bad as thought. It just needs a little push in the right direction. A little help to see what I was blind to. That even in the darkest part of the universe there is always a source of light fighting it's way though. I've been fighting out in some of the farthest spaces of the universe. Trying to do good but seeing Supergirl out there fighting, made me see that I had to help my own planet before I help the universe. That Alex Danvers is my angle."

And from that piece that Atrocita revealed about herself, a crack formed in Alex's wall around her heart.

Now across the street from an abandoned warehouse, Alex and Atrocita sat in an unmarked SUV waiting for the go ahead order from Director Henshaw. Since their last conversation the two haven't spoken, but the air around them wasn't as tense, since now they had an understanding. Atrocita caught Alex's attention when she lifted her hand, tapping the red ear piece that Alex could've sworn wasn't there before.
"Arrived at suspects location, waiting for go ahead to intercept, over." The lantern said into the mic that sat in her ear.
Alex's stunned eyes switched from Atrocita to the DEO scanner radio in the middle console of the car and then back to the Lantern as she heard the echo of her voice through the scanner.

The scanner crackled as a voice from a confused DEO agent who worked on the channel came through "Who is this?"

Atrocita burst out into laughter trying to calm the cackling down once she saw Alex's unimpressed face. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I've just always wanted to do that." She said in deep breaths trying to regain the oxygen lost from all the laughter "aw my belly hurts" she cackled.

"What the hell do you think you're doing and when did this-" Alex took the red ear piece out of the Lanterns ear, holding it in front of her "come from?" as the words came out the little piece of tech disintegrated.
"Oh come on Agent. Wake up and smell the exhaust fumes. I can create anything that comes to mind. Hacking into security tech is easy, especially when the channel coordinates are right in front of me." She said pointing at the screen of the DEO scanner.

The scanner crackled once again before Alex had the chance to tell the red warrior off as Director Henshaw's voice filled the car's interior. "Decoy of General Lane is online and operational, Agent Danvers you have the go ahead to intercept and subdue the subject. Atrocita, stay out of sight and let Agent Danvers handle this. Only engage if absolutely necessary."

Atrocita tapped the ear piece that she regenerated and huffed "You guys are cramping my style."
The Director replied "Perhaps, but it's either my way or the highway. And Atrocita?"
"Hmm?"
"STAY OFF THE COMM SYSTEM!" the Director yelled and hung up.
"Meany" Atrocita whined before waving her hand past her ear where the communication piece sat, disintegrating as her hand passed it.

Alex slowly walked into the building, her gun drawn and at the ready. Checking behind every corner for Morrow who was nowhere to be seen.
The DEO agent eventually came up to a desk filled with monitors, all of which displayed a different layout of the Red Tornado.
"That won't do anything." The familiar voice of the Doctor said, Alex whipped her head around to see the Doctor standing behind her, with a metal crown like object on his head, glowing a bright blue. The man pointed to the metal band like object on his head "Telepathic relay interface, to control his cerebral matrix. If you want to stop him, you'll have to cease all function from his creator. You'll have to kill me." He said as he calmly paced in front of Alex.
Alex stood her ground, gun pointing straight at the Doctor. "You don't have to throw your life away." She consoled.
Doctor Morrow approached the desk "The Red Tornado is my life" picking up a long pipe and quickly whacking the gun straight out of Alex's hands. Swinging the pipe again and again towards the agent only for her to dodge it expertly, eventually knocking the pipe away from the angry Doctor.

The two fighting with nothing but fists for what seemed like forever when really only being seconds. The Doctor gaining the upper hand as he wrapped his arm around Alex's throat from behind, squeezing as hard as he can, choking her in the process.
Even as Alex's lungs were being robbed of air she grabbed Morrow's upper arms, throwing him over her shoulder, taking advantage of his recovery time to refill her lungs with the air she lost, but what Alex didn't know was where the Doctor landed, was where her gun fell when it was knocked out of her hands, the male engineer picking up the gun as fast he can while finding his footing, pointing the gun right at Alex, smiling at his near victory.
As he pulled the trigger back, Alex squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for the bang that would end it all. Even though the bang did come it was muffled out from the loud tearing of the tin roof of the warehouse, Atrocita landing in front of Alex with the cement floor cracking under her steady feet as they connected with the ground, the bullet that Morrow fired bouncing off of Atrocita's invisible shield, a light red glow appearing and disappearing just as quickly on the shield where the bullet hit, ricocheting right into the corrupted Doctor's head. It all happened it slow motion for Alex, coming so close to death sent her into a slight state of shock.
Once she saw Morrow's lifeless body fall to the ground she bent over and started taking deep breaths, replaying the last few minutes over in her head.

Atrocita slowly moved towards Alex not making and sudden moves, she knew Alex was in shock. Slowly, she raised her hand and gently placed it on the brunette's shoulder. "You're safe now agent. He's gone." Offering a friendly smile along with the words spoken.
Alex patted the hand on her shoulder, nodding her thanks to the lantern, watching as Atrocita walked back to the dead man's corpse, looking down on him. "Losing his life all over a machine. What a waste." She said, disappointed in the dead human who had so much potential.

Supergirl's voice was in Alex's ear though the intercom, she too was out of breath, "Alex you did it." But Alex heard a robotic activation like noise in the background. "It's still going!" Supergirl alerted.
Alex had a horrified expression which in turn worried Atrocita. "Red Tornado is still operational. Killing Morrow didn't stop it!" on hearing this, Atrocita shot out of the building through the whole she came though.
Flying as fast as she could towards Supergirl's location, the ear piece once again reappeared in her ear as she spoke directly to the hero, "Supergirl! Remember what I told you? It's time to let go of that anger, to use it. Let it out Supergirl!
