A/N: Thank you for the comments. Alex - Henshaw definitely wasn't expecting Elle, but that's a trick that will only work once. More words of wisdom for Elle in the final chapter. Anna - Thanks!

"How is she?" Cat asked as she walked up to Kara who was watching Elle play with Eliza.

"Shocked, upset, confused." Kara said.

"Has she talked about what happened?"

"Not really. I'm pretty sure the excitement of possibly getting powers has been replaced by fear of getting new powers." Kara said.

"I'm sure you'll be able to help her through it." Cat said.

"I hope so. But if I can't I know you'll talk sense into her." Kara replied turning to face Cat.

"Whatever happens, like you, she has plenty of people to help her." Cat assured her.

"Thank you." Kara smiled before asking. "How was Adam?"

"Complaining enough to not be too bad." Cat replied.

"Complaining about what?" Kara asked concerned.

"Being sent to bed, being treated like a child and he was also not appreciating his nurse." Cat listed.

"What nurse?"

"Krypto has taken up residence next to him." Cat explained. "Go see him, I'll keep an eye on Elle if Eliza needs some time off."

"Thank you." Kara said gratefully before heading upstairs.

"How are you feeling?" Kara asked as she entered the bedroom.

"A little sore." He confessed as he stroked Krypto with his good arm. "How's Elle?"

"Being doted on by both grandmothers." Kara said.

"Any more powers?"

"No." Kara said. "But she is making sure she doesn't do anything that may start them."

"You okay?" Adam asked.

"I'm not the one who was shot." Kara reminded him.

"Technically you were a few days ago." Adam said.

"But not being human I heal quickly." She countered as there was a knock on the door.

"How are you doing?" Alex asked.

"Great." Adam said.

"You sure? Elle and Cat both said you were being grumpy."

"I'm not being grumpy." Adam said. "I'm just worried. Any idea why Elle's powers suddenly kicked in?"

"Nothing definite."

"But you have a theory?" Kara asked.

"When you solar flare it is adrenaline that kick starts your powers." Alex pointed out. "Maybe it was the same for Elle. Combined with the fact she had had exposure to the lamps so her cells were more charged than normal. We won't know for sure unless we run tests though."

"No tests." Kara said. "Not yet."

"What about Henshaw?" Adam asked.

"He's not said anything. Yet."

"I don't think he's working alone." Adam said.

"Why?"

"He said something weird, like 'they'll die bettering the resilience to aliens'….I don't know it just felt like he wasn't doing this by himself."

"Well so far there is no evidence of anyone else. But Winn is checking his electronic components and J'onn is trying to get into his head. Regardless we'll be more cautious from now on." Alex assured him before he shifted in the bed. The movement making him wince.

"Are you in pain?" Kara asked frowning. "I can get you more pain killers."

"I'm fine." He assured her.

"You winced." Kara pointed out.

"Don't show him sympathy. I told him to increase his training." Alex said.

"I'm fine." Adam assured her whilst ignoring Alex. Noticing movement on the other side of the room he said. "Hey you, have you tired out both your grandmothers?"

"No." Elle said shaking her head as Alex and Kara turned to face her.

"You okay?" Kara asked as she picked Elle up.

"I'm tired. Can I go to bed?"

"Of course you can. Do you want to sleep in here?" Kara asked concerned that Elle was so lethargic.

When Elle nodded Kara put her down and said. "Go get ready for bad then dad will read you a story."

"Before you go I have something for you." Alex said.

"What?" Elle asked perking up.

"Winn has made you a really special necklace, which we need you to wear all the time." Alex explained handing the necklace to Elle.

"It's just like mom's." Elle said as she looked at it.

"Kind of. Except this one has special powers too."

"Like what?"

"Firstly, it should protect you from Kryptonite. Secondly, if you turn this part it will emit a special signal that your mom will hear so she can come and help you." Alex said before putting the necklace on Elle.

"Thank you." Elle said hugging her.

"You're welcome, but technically you need to thank Winn, which he says you can do by not playing with his toys next time you are at the DEO."

"But J'onn gave them to me." Elle protested.

"Winn is very protective of his toys." Alex explained.

"Okay." Elle said before going to get ready for bed.

"Do you think she is okay?" Kara asked.

"She's been through a lot today and she probably depleted her cells using her heat vision." Alex said. "If she is still tired tomorrow we can put her under the lamps for awhile. If you want I can stay tonight to help keep an eye on her?"

"No. Go home." Kara said. "I'll call you if anything changes."
