A/N: Thanks for the comments.
csiaddictfan87 - Kara is definitely stubborn, but help will be forced on her by the other stubborn Danvers' women.
Jennifer Baratta - There should be a new chapter up each day. There are only 3 left (including this one) so hopefully I can stick to that statement.
"Alex?" Lena greeted when Alex entered her office. As she looked at the DEO Agent though she immediately saw how shaken she was looking and asked. "What's wrong?"
"I need your help." Alex said.
"Of course." Lena agreed immediately.
"It's Supergirl. She's hurt. And I can't take her to the DEO."
"Hurt how?" Lena asked, unnerved at seeing Alex so shaken.
"Knife wound. I don't know the details. But the wound won't heal, but she has powers. And she is sick, really sick. I took samples, but don't have a lab I can use, not with Haley looking over my shoulder."
"I'll analyse them." Lena offered before pointing to the cooler Alex was carrying. "Are they in there?"
"Yes." Alex said trying to regain focus.
"Give it to me and I'll see what I can find out." Lena said taking the cooler from Alex. "Do you want to come down with me?"
"Yes, but I can't. I need to be with her." Alex said, although she was clearly torn.
"Go look after her. I'll call as soon as I find something."
"Thank you." Alex said leaving the office.

"How is she?" Alex asked when she returned to Kara's apartment and saw Eliza standing on the threshold of the bedroom watching Kara.
"Asleep." Eliza said glancing back at Alex who walked towards her.
"Lena is looking at the samples, she'll call when she finds something." Alex said looking over at her sister. After a minute she said. "I don't understand. How did I not know?"
"You had J'onn wipe your memories." Eliza said leading Alex to the lounge so not to disturb Kara.
"Why?"
"To protect Kara and to protect me." Eliza said as she sat on the couch.
"From the Truth Seeker?" Alex guessed as she sat next to her mother.
"Yes." Eliza confirmed.
"That explains." Alex started only to trail off. "But how did I not see it after that?"
"The mind sees what it wants to see." Eliza said.
"Kara must have been so lonely."
"You were still there for her." Eliza said pulling Alex towards her.
"But not like I should have been. I said some pretty harsh things about Supergirl." Alex said.
"Kara always knew that you loved her." Eliza assured her.
"She kept her injury from me to stop me finding out didn't she?" Alex asked.
"I don't know." Eliza said as they saw Kara stumble from the bedroom.
"Mom? Dad?" Kara said looking at the far side of the room.
"Kara?" Alex said jumping up.
Ignoring her Kara kept walking to the window saying, with tears streaming down her face. "I don't want to go. Not the pod. Please don't."
"Kara." Alex said moving to stand in front of her sister who looked through her with a glassy stare.
"Please don't make me go." Kara cried. "I don't want to be alone."
Not sure how best to help Alex just pulled her into her arms, trying to avoid Kara's side. "You are not alone." She whispered.
"Alex?" Kara asked, although her eyes were still glassy.
"Right here." Alex said hugging her. "Let's get you back to bed." She added gently before guiding Kara back to the bedroom.
The second Kara's hit hit the pillow her eyes shut and she appeared to be sleeping normally.
"Was that normal?" Eliza asked frowning.
"No. At least I don't remember it, but that may not be saying much." Alex said as she wrapped a blanket round Kara. "She's getting hotter."
"I'll get some cold cloths." Eliza said going to the kitchen. But as she ran the cold tap Alex approached her.
"Are you going to be okay here by yourself?" Alex asked.
"Where are you going?"
"To help Lena." Alex said.
"Go." Eliza replied.

"Alex, how is she?" Lena asked looking up from a microscope.
"Not good." Alex said. "Her fever is worse and she has started to hallucinate."
"And the wound?"
"Still not healing and still looks infected. Have you found anything?"
"Nothing you are going to like." Lena said. "The samples you brought in had micro shards of Kryptonite."
"But she said she could feel Kryptonite." Alex said confused.
"That may be because the shards were so small." Lena said. "Unfortunately in the blood stream they can damage cells. My guess is, the knife had a special coating, deliberately deigned to leave Kryptonite in her."
"Which means to get it out we need to cut away the entire area." Alex said wondering how she was going to be able to do that without moving her.
"Only it's not that simple as it is now in her blood stream." Lena said. "I have an idea, but I need to borrow Brainy."
"He's yours." Alex said sending a blunt text.
"How long do you think your idea will take?"
"That depends on what Brainy says, but a few hours would be ball park."
"Lets hope she has that long." Alex said as Brainy suddenly appeared.
"That was quick." Lena commentated.
"Director Danvers was explicit in her instructions and desire for speed." Brainy said. "What is wrong?"
"It's Supergirl. She's hurt." Alex said.
