A/N: Thanks for the comments.
Jennifer Baratta - Thank you.
Guest - No I have not seen Batwoman yet. Hoping to catch up at the weekend.
"J'onn? Kelly?" Eliza greeted, hugging them both.
"How's Kara and Alex?" Kelly asked.
"Holding on. I know you being here will help Alex. Kara too."
"Are you sure it is okay me being here?" Kelly asked. "I don't want to act like a distraction. I know how much Kara needs Alex."
"You are practically family." Eliza said. "I'm sure they both want you here." She then looked at J'onn and asked. "Any news on that monster?"
"No. He has been very careful to make sure he is not linked to anything bad. Brainy is working on trying to find evidence in encrypted files. I've started to look into the hidden buildings that Lena told us about, but so far nothing."
"How can he get away with what he did?"
"He hasn't got away with anything. We will make sure he sees justice." J'onn assured her.
"But for now she still isn't safe is she?"
"Lex is in no position to make another move." J'onn replied. "Right now he is being investigated, which means he has to act like a model citizen."
"So we can leave?" She asked.
"Not a fan of Gotham?" J'onn asked amused.
"I prefer Midvale." Eliza pointed out. "Plus it feels like a we are in prison right now. Somewhere with space may do Kara some good. Also if we are there, maybe we can stop Kara dwelling on the fact that Lex is still free."
"You think she'll go after him?" Kelly asked.
"I think she'd bring Supergirl back to provide evidence against Lex. She isn't ready for that." Eliza said.
"She'll probably do that eventually." J'onn warned.
"I know." Eliza said.
"According to Alex's last tests, Kara is fully recovered, physically at least, so there is no reason to stay." J'onn commented.
"Unless Lex has done something, or is going to do something." Eliza said.
"We can't hide her forever." J'onn said.
"What about Argo?" Eliza suggested.
"The only way there is my car. After what she went through in VR I don't know if a long trip through space in a small ship is a good idea."
"For what it is worth, I think Midvale would be a good option for Kara. It's somewhere she has always felt safe. And the more she sees of this world the more she'll start to believe it is real." Kelly pointed out.

"So what else have I missed?" Kara asked as she and Alex sat eating pizza.
"So much TV." Alex said. "But so have I. When you get bored we can start catching up on it."
"You didn't watch it?"
"Of course not. You weren't there." Alex said.
"What else?"
"Kelly knows who you are."
"How did she take it?" Kara asked looking guilty. "Is she mad at you?"
"No she isn't mad. I'm beginning to think there isn't really anything I can do to make her really mad." Alex said recalling what she had put everyone through.
"Why what else have you done?"
"You now how I can be a complete jerk when I'm drunk? Well, let's just say I surpassed all expectations when that video came out. And I am so sorry." Alex said.
"For what?"
"I should have been out there looking from day one, not getting drunk and yelling at everyone. If I had, maybe I could have got to you sooner."
"You were out every day searching for me." Kara reminded her.
"Not for those first few days. But that will never happen again. I've given up."
"Given up what?"
"Drinking." The announcement causing Kara to fall silent before suddenly backing away from Alex.
"What's wrong?" Alex asked.
"You. You would never have given up drinking. That means this isn't real."
"Kara. I promise you it is real." Alex said moving closer to her. "I really did give up so I could concentrate on looking for you. If you don't believe anything else please believe that I would do anything it took to find you."
Nodding Kara seemed to relax before letting Alex hug her. After a moment Kara pulled away and said. "Sorry for freaking out."
"It's okay." Alex said. "And for the record, me giving up drinking is far more plausible than you giving up sticky buns."
"Well I need sticky buns to replace all the calories I burn flying." Kara pointed out as there was a knock on the door.
"Hey. Can I come in?" Kelly asked as she stood in the doorway holding a box.
"Are you okay?" Alex asked going over and hugging her.
"I'm fine. It's you two I'm worried about." Kelly said looking closely at Alex before handing her the box and approaching Kara who she hugged while saying. "I've missed you."
"I've missed you too." Kara said.
When Kelly released Kara Alex asked. "What's in the box? It is too light for chocolate."
"And too big." Kelly pointed out.
"Not really." Kara said. "So if not chocolate what is it?"
"I thought you might be getting a bit bored, so I brought Settlers of Catan. I remember how much you liked destroying James and I back in Metropolis."
"I love Settlers." Kara smiled.

"Aren't you meant to be resting?" Kate asked when she saw Lena limp out of the room she was staying in.
"I needed some fresh air."
"At the moment that is likely to be lethal." Kate said. "You are still public enemy number one and Lex is making it his personal mission to make you look more guilty."
"Yet you are still helping me." Lena pointed out.
"Kara asked me to." Kate shrugged. "But I can only protect you if you stay here and stay hidden. Out there you are on your own."
"I'm not a fan of sitting around doing nothing especially when my brother is literally getting away with murder."
"I was hoping you'd say that." Kate said.
"You're that keen so see me lynched?"
"No. I had something else in mind."
