A/N - Couldn't help but write this chapter, seemed like it was time to get know our players a little better.


"Then you have already lost!" Lucifer grinned, it was like shark, one who had found its prey. "Now where were we?" Kara could only gape as Lucifer moved at incredible speed, in one swift move he had the assailant's wrist in a death grip, a wrist which was quickly snapped, the knife turned on its owner and then stabbed firmly into the man's leg, he howled in pain and then he was faced with it, the true face of the Devil, he did the only thing he could do and that was to scream, scream with all of his might as if that would save him from the eternal damnation he was going to face.

At that moment, he knew he was going to burn in the fires of Hell. The failed mugger did the sensible thing and passed out.

Kara had seen it too, thankfully it was only a glimpse, a glimpse was more than enough, with a sharp intake of breath she moved forward making her presence more known, not knowing what she was about to face.

"Apologies Miss?" Lucifer asked,

"Danvers or Zor-El, depends on the outfit!" Kara's response was a little shaky, she was still wide eyed and some kind of primeval fear had crept into her mind, a little voice in the back of her mind was telling her to run, run far away from this man, this voice was told to shut up,

"Well seeing as you have a cape, I will go with Miss Zor-El, I am sorry you had to see that, it is not something I like to show the innocent!" Lucifer took a deep breath and Kara could see the look of hurt and shame that this impossible being held in his eyes at that moment, was that because he may have scared her too? The charred and burnt flesh she had seen looked horrific and he was the one looking ashamed, she was the one who had gaped at his injuries, if she kept this up, someone would pull her superhero card,

"Does it hurt?" Kara asked in a small voice, giving a little gesture over her face, Lucifer looked at a little stunned by her reaction,

"Not anymore." He responded, Chloe had asked him once, Linda never really discussed his Devil Face, outside of its 'meaning!?' Ella, he had never shown her, wings and hellfire eyes was all she would ever get.

"I'm sorry."

"You're sorry? What on Earth do you have to be sorry for?" Lucifer was now beyond confused, the normal reaction (Ella aside), was to scream and run and well then scream some more, not an apology,

"For staring, it was rude of me and for well trying to attack you earlier, friends?" Kara held out her hand, Lucifer shock it and nodded, stilled baffled by the whole situation.

"Right, well what should we do with this…." Lucifer waved is hand in the general direction at the broken and unconscious man on the ground, "seems our victim has taken her leave, the youth of today, not even a thank you, bloody typical!"

"I'll call Barry, see what him and Joe can come up with, if it was my Earth, I could have the DEO deal with this or even the police, being Supergirl has its perks,"

"I guess we should just kill him then!" Lucifer looked thoughtful for a moment before chuckling at Kara's horrified expression, "I am merely joking my dear and I don't kill humans! One of the only rules I happen to agree with my farther on."

"O…..Kay? If the police take him in, what do you think will happen?" Kara asked,

"Oh I believe that once this fellow wakes, he will be in a confessing mood, to all of those nasty little crimes he has committed over the years, hoping to find absolution or some other such rubbish." Lucifer looked smug,

"Will it work?"

"Nope!"


The criminal was being carried off to the hospital by ambulance then he would face questioning at the station, Barry had taken care of the arrangements, in the meantime Kara had changed back into her street clothes and had joined Lucifer back in the bar where he had spent the past few hours at, propped back at the bar with three empty glasses in front of him and a fresh drink was waiting for Kara,

"I'm not really a drinker," Kara screwed up her face and pushed her glasses back into place, "Also isn't it a bit early for that?"

"Nonsense my dear Miss….. Danvers? Kara gave him a little nod, "It has been a strange day and I for one am going to enjoy a drink and I would like you to join me." Kara smiled and took a sip of her drink, surprised to find out it was just lemonade, "I never like to presume and as you said it may be a little early in the day for you humans!" Lucifer gave Kara a genuine smile,

"You know I am not human right?" Kara whispered,

"I am aware but as you are trying to keep your super-secret identity intact, I thought it best to play along but seriously, do the glasses actually work?" Lucifer quirked an eyebrow,

"Well, yes, actually!" Kara couldn't help but reach to her glasses, it reminded Lucifer of how Ray-Ray had picked up that little trait too. He adjusted his cufflink but in no way was that the same thing.

"Really? I bet if you told people who you were they wouldn't believe it?" Lucifer seemed genuinely interested in her answer, "Do you play a version of yourself that people would never see as a hero?" Lucifer finished another drink and signaled to the barman for another,

"It's a long story!" Kara gave the Devil a wide eyed response,

"Well I am here till the end of time!"

"Touché! Ok, when I came to Earth I was a child and my cousin had arrived well before me, he was a baby when we left but now he was Superman and an adult! He had arrived many ears before I had, I was meant to protect him but now it was the other way around!" Kara wasn't sure why she was telling the Devil of all people her story but seeing the man before her she felt like she needed to, "I was placed with my human family, where I got my wonderful sister and parents but I was told to keep my origins and my powers a secret so as to not expose myself as an alien, a Kryptonian. For large part of my life I kept my true origins hidden, occasionally helping people when I could, or when no-one was watching, well until my sister's plane was crashing and I had to save her and then the world saw me! Miss Grant named me Supergirl and I was the world's hero like my cousin." That little confession made Kara smile, she felt a weight lift from her shoulders, one she didn't know she was carrying and it wasn't like she had many people to tell her true story too, it felt nice. Who knew the Devil was such a great listener.

"I tell everyone I am the Devil, no one seems to believe me? I don't lie, point of pride for me, well we had the same conversation and same reaction earlier, did we not?" It was a serious question, so Kara answered,

"It's not something we have had to deal with before! We fight criminals, aliens, meta-humans, so probably more open minded than most people to the possibilities but, celestial being is a new one!" Kara shrugged,

"Well you are handling all this rather well! I usually get a mixed reaction!" Lucifer chuckled darkly into his drink, Kara smirked at his reaction,

"Oh, before I forget, when I was flying over the city I did see a few tailors over on fifth, maybe we should head over there?" Kara queried hopefully,

"Lovely!"
