Upon return to the DEO, all three strode quickly down the halls and through the doors, with Agent Danvers leading Maggie and Lena to where the older sister hoped her boss had brought Kara. Sure enough, through double doors, was where Vasquez kept a close eye on the hero, no doubt a task J'onn had requested. Alex stopped before the room she knew her sister was in and blocked the other two from going any further. She stepped to the window, followed by her love and their friend, so could all see that Kara was in the best hands possible. Alex let them know, the moment they were clear to come in she would call to them. She took a deep breath and slowly slipped in, pushing herself into that agent mode as she walked over to Susan.
"How is she Amelia?" Alex asked quietly. Vasquez knew it wasn't good, then Hamilton turned to her with a slight grimace to her expression.
"She hasn't regained consciousness Alex, but that's not the worst of it. They were able to slip an IV into her." Alex swallowed hard, glancing down as she studied the readings of her sister's vitals, knowing how bad numbers like that could be. "Every once in a while her head lulls side to side slightly, but her motions are far too weak. The perspiration from her hasn't lessened any. If you had to ask, she's as human as they come right now."
"Thank you for looking after her. I'm sure the boss appre.." But the other agent cut her off.
"I'd do it anyway Al." Vasquez patted Alex's shoulder and walked out, as she noticed the two women attempting to eavesdrop.
"You're okay to come in. Just be quiet." The detective and CEO walked through the door and over to Alex. Lena was paying attention to her best friend's vitals, while Maggie read over the chart at the end of Little Danvers' bed. Alex looked over and met her lover's eyes, that flickered with the worry in her own to her fiance's view, exposing the vulnerability Danvers rarely showed. Both turned to watch Lena carefully walk over, take a chair from the corner and bring it close to the bed the unconscious Super occupied. Hesitantly Alex spoke, "Hey Lena…" The youngest Luthor shot her head to the side as eyes of emerald green met the agent's brown ones. "..I know you want to help in some way. Do you think you can help me out with a blood test? I know quite a bit about kryptonian biology, anatomy and such, but...something tells me you do too." Lena nodded, then Maggie came closer to her as if to bring up something they hadn't thought of.
"Hey Little Luthor, you had taken a screenshot of that stone before. What were you...are you thinking?"
"It didn't feel right, for one. For two, that...bitch..was wearing one a tad smaller. Three, a bigger one had been hanging above them on that damn bed and it had a strange glow to it almost like a smoky swirl. Something tells me that THAT might have something to do with Kara's state. Though, I could be wrong."
No. I don't think you are Lena. As a detective, I look for those things that are out of place. I know it might be dangerous without her out on patrol, but I'd like to send an NCPD SD and CSA team down to where we found her. See if we can find the place she was kept at too. It's gotta be close judging by the footprint trail, which I can go over with a spectrum light. Anything is better than sitting around Danvers. I know that sounds callus, but if it can help..." Alex nodded. Maggie chuckled, "Don't worry I'll take Vasquez too and a team from the DEO to inspect too, alright? If you want, I'll have Guardian keep guard, just in case. Okay?"
"Just be careful Mags...please. I love you." They exchanged a kiss as the detective mouthed the same three words, then headed out. Alex turned back to Lena, who was bent over Kara, as she left the softest kiss on her little sister's forehead. She whispered to her, that she was here for her and not going anywhere, then walked over to the agent. "So Lena..we're gonna run some blood tests while her skin can be pervious. I have a feeling you're right on your assumption." Lena sighed nodding. Sometimes, she hated the way she thought about things..
"It makes sense Alex. It really does. I mean, that cruelty, the look in her eyes..she was gone. It's just...it's no human cause. Which, everything that bitch was saying…"
"Is she from here, or from another planet. Could she be.." Lena swallowed the lump in her throat. "..I hope to hell she..didn't come from Krypton. That would devastate Kara. She's lost enough already." Lena pondered those words and knew there was far more to it.
"While we run tests, would you..if it's okay, fill me in?" Alex gasped, giving serious thought to what her decision would be. When the answer came to her, she just smiled nodding. "Anything to help her Alex. Please...I want to be able to be there for her, completely in...our future."
"Well, let's get to work then Little Luthor." Lena groaned turning and glaring as Alex chuckled.
"Don't start with that too Agent Danvers." Lena grumbled as they both looked at Kara one more time before slipping into Alex's lab right next to the med bay.
"Found something Detective!" Maggie flicked her gaze from the camera she had been inspecting photos of, as Vasquez walked over with a sealed baggie and a small glass vial, that was empty except for a couple tiny drops staining the inside of it. Sawyer tightened her grip on the upper part of the bag, avoiding breaking the vial, as she clenched her jaw growling. Perhaps this would fill them in on what was used on her little sister.
It was bad enough, how they had found the shack that Kara had been kept in. A roughed up bed, claw marks dug through the mattress, torn sheets, indentations in wood posts and strange well knotted ropes attached to the headboard. Even worse, when they had walked in, was the faint but so well known smell of sex. What had that cunt done to MY Little Danvers?! The minute I find that bitch I'm firing two into her ankles, then driving a couple metal stakes through her thighs to pin her to the ground, so Alex can fire as many fucking shots as she wants into her and when my girl is done…..Little Luthor, you'll be up for the next set. Maggie thought, making sure to remember that no shots should be fatal when they do it. The bitch would suffer...slowly...and painfully..
"I want samples from every nook and cranny of this hell hole. Have someone go over that bathroom top to bottom..got it?!" Maggie yelled barking orders with her growl deepening. The sooner they got to the bottom of this...the better..
She slammed her palms on the table in the lab, startling Lena in the process as Alex let out a heavy frustrated sigh. Running fingers through her hair, with a hand on the table, she gripped a pen, snapping it in two in deep aggravation. The CEO came over, placing a gentle hand on Alex's arm, in a show of support and understanding. Alex turned her head to look at Lena, with watering eyes that threatened to give way to the tears she was so close to shedding.
"We've been at this for hours Lena, with nothing in our database. We haven't found a thing in Kara's blood-work, that can give us something to work with. I mean..shouldn't we have SOMETHING?!" Alex looked over to the door to the Super's room, knowing her little sister needed them, especially her, to find out what's wrong. "How can I help you Kara…"
"Why don't we go check on her. Alex, we need to take a break and maybe something will turn up in the database. I mean, it's still scanning for something." The agent nodded and followed Lena out the door and back into the med bay, as both their eyes widened as they froze at the sight, then ran right over in relief. "Kara!" Lena dove into the chair she had occupied before, taking one of the Kryptonian's hands, as Alex ran to the other side standing over her little sister, with both noticing the barely open eyes, but it brought them some hope upon seeing them.
"Hey baby girl. How you..how are you Kar?" Alex smiled bringing a hand up to Kara's head softly stroking her hair, hoping for an answer from her sister, sooner or later.
Lexy...Lee.." Kara mumbled, with her voice barely even a whisper. Right as they were graced with her voice, the detective walked in. Kara slightly turned her head and gave a little smile. "Hi Maggggie." Kara mumbled. Maggie smiled waving, grateful she too was seeing her awake.
Hey there Little Danvers. Feeling better? You just take it easy kiddo." Kara nodded, turning her head back to Lena. "Hey Alex ..can I..borrow you a few?" The agent got up and kissed her little sister on the cheek, then stepping away as Maggie followed her into her lab.
As soon as the door was closed, her lover handed her a bag with a glass vial in it stained with something. Alex looked into her fiance's eyes.
"What…"
"We found it, in...in the room your sister was stuck in Alex. That's not the worst of it, but that might help you figure out what Little Danvers was drugged with." Alex took it immediately to the counter, carefully grabbing something to scrape the contents out, then put it on a glass petri dish. She took it to one of her machines and slid the dish in, shutting the lid punching the buttons she need to, to analyze it. "How is she?" Maggie asked sitting on the stool as Alex leaned against the counter.
"She had just come to, from what Lena and I saw. Her speech is slurred Mags. I mean..you heard her." The detective wiped her face with her hands then tapped them on stool. "Lena and I spent hours running her blood sample through our system and still nothing has come back. It's still scanning."
"Shit." Alex nodded. "Well hopefully that stuff helps with this."
"I hope so too Mags. I wanna be able to help my sister." The agent cracked her neck, turning back to Maggie. "So..what else did you find?" The detective flinched, not ready to deliver the news, but knowing Alex needed to know. She took the deepest breath she could, reached out and took Alex's hands and squeezed them.
"Babe...I need you to take some deep breaths for me okay?" The agent's eyes locked onto her lover's own and nodded. "I..need you to let me talk and...just listen. Okay? Okay?" Maggie watched the roll down Alex's throat, signifying her nervousness at just how serious her tone was. She put her hand in her jacket pocket, pulling out another bag. "These..knots..were on some ropes there. Do you recognize these?" Alex was about to open the bag, looking up to make sure it was okay and her lover nodded. She took the odd rope out, noticing how smooth it was, how slick. "What are you thinking?"
"Kinda like...japanese-silk rope. Don't ask."
"Kinky. I'm aware of that thanks. Had an ex, that was..nevermind."
"This is different Mags. This isn't that." She studied the knots, that reminded her of celtic ones. These...mean something." Alex's hand was covered by her fiance's. "You've got..that look...detective."
"Here." Danvers saw the digital camera come out of Sawyer's pocket, handing it over to her.
"What is...oh..my god.." The agent had barely turned it on, going through only three picks, as her stomach came up to her chest almost instantly. Five photos in and she wanted to hurl. There it was...proof of..
"I had to leave the room twice, to puke. The room...it..wreaked of.."
"..of sex." She finished for Maggie. "This bitch…"
"Trust me Alex, we will."
Their conversation paused, when the computer dinged with results. The sample results had finally came back, as both of them turned their heads toward the machine. The agent let her lover's hand go and walked over to the computer, that relayed the results of the scan. Alex's eyes widened, sheer gut wrenching shock slamming into her, showing all over her face. The sample, was a kryptonite mixed drug and the other sample...was from her kryptonian database, that Alex had created with the help of Kara, Clark, Eliza and Kalex.
"What is it?" Maggie asked hopping off the stool, as she walked over to her beloved and her own eyes widened by the findings on the screen. "Oh…"
"Shit." Alex finished as both stood there, not even sure what to make of the findings. All they knew was..this...would tear..Kara apart..
Alex and Maggie were taken aback, as was J'onn, that now stood over the computer, with the detective doing her best to comfort her love. The information was riveting and it left the agent in a state of greater concern. If this threat had been human, things would be different. But who were they kidding, this was different and far more dangerous. How am I gonna break this to Kar? Maggie felt her fiance shaking in her arms. J'onn stopped reading for a moment and turned his head slightly making eye contact with his best agent. Alex forced herself to swallow down her shaky resolve, center her entire being and stand taller. He nodded in return, but regardless, he had read her thoughts and knew how dark they were regarding all this.
"What do you wanna do Boss?" Alex asked with a smooth and focused tone. The Martian sighed, unsure of what the right answer was for this..
"I don't know if letting her know yet would be wise. I'm assuming this is why you turned on the fans in here, to avoid her from hearing you if her powers are back." Alex nodded. "We will find out as much as we can. If Miss Luthor has any information that can pertain to this..use it. She has full access now, since she's working with us." The couple watched him step away and walk out the side door. Alex turned back to the computer, then to her betrothed.
"Why don't we check on Kara. Mags?" The detective was flailing her arm to get the agent to shush. She had the door cracked to try to hear a convo, bringing Alex over to the door too..
Kara swallowed roughly, her throat far too dry, as she tried to sit up. Immediately, her body lacked kryptonian, even human strength. Her best friend helped her sit up, being that back support for her.
"Better?" She nodded. "How are you?" Lena asked, hoping she wouldn't get the usual I'm fine response.
"Honestly?" The Luthor watched her nodding. "I feel...as weak as a kitten. My head is pounding, I'm cold...I'm…" Kara sighed. "...I feel fully human with all the aches and pains too. But...Lee…" The CEO stopped her, before the rambling could start.
"My turn, okay?" Kara nodded with the finger still over her lips, as slowly Lena pulled away and adjusted her footing, to keep that continual support for her best friend. "First off, glasses and a ponytail do you absolutely no good for a disguise. I mean how has National City not figured out..just who you are?" Kara slumped back against the bed with a quivering lip, when Lena took the hand off her back. "I know exactly what you are thinking and I'm not mad, well..I was slightly, but not now. I mean, Kara I was spilling everything to you like crazy. Day after day and you were hiding." Lena paused unaware of Maggie's chuckle and Alex smacking her on the arm, regarding the disguise. "Before you start apologizing, I understand your reasoning." Kara's eyes widened then she huffed, as she spoke a little louder than a whisper with how dry her throat still was.
"I wanted to tell you everyday, but I was scared you'd be hurt or hate me." Lena practically choked from what Kara muttered, that she almost needed super hearing to pick up. She reached out and took one of Kara's hands into her own. The hero glanced at their joined hands and looked up in fear.
"Kara, I could never hate you first off. As for the danger aspect, please..I'm a Luthor. It comes with the last name darling." Before Lena could retract the name she called Supergirl, she felt Kara squeeze her hand, already noticing just how little of strength there was in her best friend's hand. "No more secrets okay?" But the hard swallow from Kara brought Lena worry. "What is it?"
"I.." Kara turned away and Lena saw the pain in her facial features. Had she caused that hurt? She let go of her hand and stood to grab her jacket. "Lena wait!" Kara gasped groaning, as she forced herself to sit up on her own.
As emerald greens turned to meet Kara's beautiful blues, she felt her words stuck in her throat unable to speak. Lena stepped closer and tightened her fists then released them, breathing slowly out taking another deep breath in and release it out just gradually.
"Kara, before you say it…before...you say..something that..makes my hopes dash.."
"Lee.." But Kara was cut off, as Lena raised a hand then brought it back down.
"...before anything else, I have to tell you something. I don't want to lose you or make you think I'll go, because I never would, but please.." Another deep breath in and out, then in again, helped her push what she wanted to say from her lips. "I have felt something for you since you walked into my office that first time with Clark, aka Superman. Each time we said bye, after lunches, coffees, dinners and dates, the two of us have been too oblivious to notice, or even acknowledge as.."
Lena took another breath in then out.. "...and despite that we are best friends and the other Luthor's hate aliens, I...am absolutely head over heels for you Kara Danvers." Lena lifted her head to meet wide eyes and a huge smile, thinking that when she raised her gaze she would be met with heartache, only to discover how happy Kara looked. The kryptonian was desperately trying to reach for her, as Lena smiled finally and walked the rest of the distance, closing it quickly. The CEO wrapped her arms around Kara as their lips crashed together as the Super tried to mutter I like you too Lee.
As the door quietly shut, Maggie waited until both walked away from it then turned to Alex with a huge ass grin. She held out her hand curling her fingers in a gesture to pay up. The agent sighed, grabbing her wallet out of her cargo pants pocket flipping it open and pulling out the crisp hundred, as the detective grinned like the cheshire cat laughing snatching it from her fiance's hand.
"Gotta say Danvers, you keep me wealthy." Alex stuck her tongue out at her love shrugging on other stool. Maggie folded the benjamin carefully, slipping it into the tight pocket of her black pants, then folded her arms stealing her expression. "So when do we tell the new rainbow couple the bad news?"
"Honestly? No idea Mags. But I do need to talk to Lena so, think you can attend to my sister?" Maggie chuckled. "What.." Alex asked scrunching up her face glaring.
"I, do NOT, wanna walk in on Little Luthor humping Little Danvers thank you." Alex just about had a heart attack at the words that slipped out of Maggie's mouth, as she covered her eyes humming. But the detective just laughed. "What's wrong Danvers?"
"La la la la la….didnt need to think about thank you!" It just made the laughter louder, until a sudden slam from the lab door opening, caught them both off guard and in defense mode now on their feet ready for a brawl. Lena stood there then sighed, walking over turning off the fans. "Hi Lena."
"Ya know...if you two didn't wanna be heard you might have thought about soundproofing through the vent ducts. Just sayin." The Luthor walked over sighing, slipping the stool over about to turn the computer monitor some. "I wouldn't hump her here thanks." Maggie swallowed her laughter quickly, as Alex smirked then noticed Lena's eyes go wide walking over. "She passed back out. What is..this?"
"The detective found something at the sickening place she was kept. A sample. It came back with Krypton written all over it."
"Kryptonite too?" Alex nodded. "Shit." Maggie walked over joining them. "Was the person who had her, from her planet?"
"We don't know. But it's a theory."
"This will kill her Alex." Lena struggled to say.
"I know. Hence why I'm hesitant to let her know so quickly. But honestly, she's the only one who can shine some light on this person." Alex stated. "You said she passed out?" Lena nodded.
"Her eyes shut as we were kissing and I...laid her back down and covered her up because her body was shivering. How is it that she's without powers still? I mean, she should at least show something. Those solar lamps in the med bay should help, shouldn't they?"
"Not if something is blocking her solar radiation. I'm thinking, now this is just a plausible answer, that whatever she was given is leaving her in the dark. Nighttime. Without the day, the sun, she's weaker and her powers fade." Lena started to type in a code as Alex was about to stop her, but watched as she linked up her system with Alex's. "What the.." Suddenly, different chemicals were popping up on screen. "I...how?"
"My brother was obsessed with learning EVERYTHING he could about Krypton, especially kryptonites. Anything I got to help, let's use it." The agent nodded and put a hand on Lena's shoulder.
"Thank you."
"Thank me…" Lena stated with her eyes back in the game to find the truth, "...when we get to the bottom of this and help Kara..then stop that bitch."
"Deal." The couple said nodding, just as focused to reverse the damage that had been done to THEIR Super..
"They asleep?" Maggie whispered, Alex nodded and quietly shut her bedroom door sighing. "What do you wanna do Ally?" Alex let out a heavier breath and walked toward to kitchen, with her fiance following close behind.
"Honestly, they are resting and I can't sleep." The agent huffed then turned her gaze to the detective. "What?" Maggie chuckled and shook her head.
"Beers and balls?" Alex slipped her lips into a grin nodding. "Let's go then." Sawyer made sure to keep her voice down for the sleeping couple in the bedroom.
"Let me just write a note really quick, letting them know we'll be back." Alex muttered, as she grabbed a pen and a clipboard off the fridge, writing something out for the ones that needed sleep the most she felt. She tore it off the sheet and stuck it to the fridge, placing the notepad and pen back where they came from, beside the note. The two of them walked toward the door, with both of them grabbing their leather jackets on way out. "While we are there….." Alex started, as they walk down hall, "I wanna check on anymore info we can about the mysterious bitch." The detective nodded, then tapped her sidearm. "Mine is with me too, don't worry." Both slipped out to the parking lot where their DEO, now personal owned vehicles sat, as the agent smirked. They both put in their digital codes for the locks on the bikes, to get to their helmets. They had matching grins as they mounted their babies, turning the key over the bike motors purred. Both rolled out, then hit the gas, as they speed off to their favorite spot. Even thought it was for fun too, they hoped for some answers and info on the female devil..they believed her to be..
Practically feeling the graze of her lips all over her body, her head lulled side to side and back from all her dreams were filled with. It was intoxicating and with that sudden realization, her eyes flew open, as she gasped out and slapped a hand over her mouth to quiet the noises. Kara felt just the slightest of movements beside her and turned her head, with her gaze calming instantly, as she smiled by the sight. Lena slept, probably the first good slumber she's had in a while and the kryptonian dare not disturb the beauty. My dreams..so real..too real. Kara thought and carefully pried herself from the bed, making sure not to stir the snoozing CEO.
She quietly made her way to the bathroom, shutting the door, but not realizing it hadn't closed completely. With a slight loss of balance suddenly, she staggered towards her sister's vast and beautifully tiled shower, stripping away garments before entering it. Kara turned the handle, as the spray of cold water hit her body and she shivered at the cold, biting her lip to stop the gasp that wanted to escape her. Obviously her powers weren't back yet, evident of how temperatures were felt by her. As the water turned warmer and warmer, she found a comfortable medium and reached for the body wash on shelf she had left the last time she had used her sister's shower.
She rubbed the soap over her body, with the washcloth she had grabbed before entering the shower. With the relaxed state hitting her, Kara felt her mind slip back to her dreams, just as her eyes did into her skull. With what she had in her hand, she rubbed it along her chest, putting a hand against the wall moans escaping through ragged breaths. The kryptonian took the two steps back as she felt the wall behind her, dropping the washcloth as both her hands slid up to her chest. It wasn't her own hands that she felt. It was hers. It was her voice, the touches she brought, when she tasted Kara intimately. Her mind and body were locked in torrent preamble, with no give for the thoughts and feelings to end. Moans got louder, as her lips parted and her panting and shivers wouldn't cease from the dark rapture that swallowed her. That taste...she wanted it so badly and her body shook with ache, with need, with an unimaginable thirst..
One hand left her chest and slipped to the side, as it dropped and knocked over a bottle of body wash off the shelf. Once it hit the tiles, the magenta colored soap began to pour out, with the lid off, from when Kara had opened it to use it. As it continued to unload its contents, purple flecks of something else became visible. Kara's cerulean and sky blue eyes slipped darker and darker, as a sudden slam of the bathroom door was heard. The noise knocked part of her tattered thoughts away, but her body now felt so heavy, so jaded.
Kara!" Lena yelled and ran towards the shower, where the blonde was on her knees, uncaring if she got wet or not. She noticed the flushed color of the kryptonian's face, dropping to her own knees for her. She cupped her face, observing how unbalanced the Super's eyes were. "What happened?" But the darkened shades in her hues, that were usually beautiful warm blues, worried the Luthor tremendously. "Kara? Kar.." Soft lips were suddenly on her own and Lena's emeralds slipped back as she returned the kiss hungrily. Then Kara was trying to rid the CEO of her shirt and bra and Lena did it for her. The pants were next, undergarments too, with everything off Lena's body she felt her frame spun around as her backside collided with the wall. With the woman's legs partially straight, she found Kara straddling her waist, as the kryptonian began to rock herself back and forth and roll her hips. Kisses became frenzier, hands roamed all over their naked bodies and moans escaped them both under the rain of heated water. They were lost to the passion, pleasure and a ravenous hunger neither could deny anymore. Both women didn't want it to stop, hazed in rich wanton need..
Alex set down the empty bottle, as Maggie finished off her own and set it down. She watched the agent dial up her 'game, point, match' shot, hoping for a miracle.
Gonna biff it." The detective snickered as the tip punched the cue and popped the eight right where Alex had wanted it to go. "Phff…shit." Alex gave the biggest smile at her victory.
Awww...what's the matter Sawyer? Hmm?" She laughed slapping her lover's ass, as Maggie racked up the balls with the triangle. "Oh now, how much is that?"
"Before my wallet is empty, I think we should calling it a night. We do have a couple of rainbow kids at home." The detective pointed out, as Alex leaned back against the table giving her fiance the sexiest stare she could. "Keep it up Danvers and I'll have to do something illegal right here on the table."
I love it when you make such devious propositions to me babe." Alex piped back, wiggling her brows, as she felt herself pulled in for the most passionate of kisses. "Mmmmmm.." Maggie broke the kiss, then brought her bottom lip between her teeth and pushed Alex back to go grab their coats. "Yeah yeah."
Danvers..hold up." Alex watched the detective walk over and talk to one of the other pool players, as one guy shook his head then nodded twice and shook her hand. Alex quirked up an eyebrow as Maggie came back over. "I'll tell you once we are outta here." Both walked out of the bar and headed to where their bikes were parked. They had just unlocked their helmets, when both women heard what sounded like a deep purr, turning around with their guns out of the holsters and in their hands. Then the wicked tantric laughter filled their ears, setting them on edge even more.
"Leave it to an FBI agent and a cop, to sense a strange presence in the air. I applaud you both." The woman smirked and walked forward, into the neon lights by the bar. There, in the same tight black and dark purple laced vest, black leather pants and buckled black boots, was the same despicable evil they had seen on the videos. Her hair was braided and pulled back and on her wrists were two black leather cuffs that fit almost over her entire forearms, with rather familiar crests. Alex could see the design, just a little and knew the knots were the same as the ropes Maggie had shown her before.
Immediately, the swirls of her rich dark blue midnight purple hues were capturing their browns that shook from the feeling of them. Maggie had disengaged the safety on her gun, preparing to get off for a shot if bitch came any closer. Alex was warming up the charging power of her alien gun, so ready to blast this bitch. Instead, Kalyste slowly and purposely lured them both out further from their bikes, until she was easily walking smooth slow circles around them smirking. "You haven't a clue what you two little wolf cubs have decided to play with...do you?" Every little word that came out of her mouth, filled with a sultry seductive purr, made Danvers want to fire on this monster even more.
"Then enlighten us." Alex stopped moving and gasped, as Maggie noticed her love's body language and stopped too, realizing just what their enemy had been doing. "What do you want?" The agent growled, getting sick of this game quickly. The laughter was low and haunting. so much different than before and it brought an uneasiness to the agent, along with an unexplained fear that began to rise. Kalyste smiled and without them grasping just how quick she was, she had appeared behind them, watching and waiting.
Alex felt the hairs on the back of her neck sticking up and spun around, firing a wave of power from her gun, intending to hit the bitch. Her target had moved easily out of the way and with the immediate threat gone, she slapped the gun right out of the agent's hand, then grabbed Alex by the throat and jumped back away from the detective. Maggie gasped and aimed at the one holding her fiance snarling.
"Let...her...go...NO!" Sawyer growled and practically shouted at the she-devil, but was met with only more laughter. She looked in Alex's eyes, watching the grip on the agent's throat, with them facing one another and Danvers nodded. Maggie fired twice, two kryptonite rounds, but both bullets were caught almost instantly by the woman. Sawyer's eyes widened, as she prepared to fire again. Just as she was about to, a powerful wave hit her body and with it, she gasped then screamed and hit her knees. "N...no...no...papa..do..don't...lea..ve.."
"Ma.." Alex struggled against the grip on her throat, trying to fight to get free and over to her fiance. "Ps...Psi.." The agent could barely talk with how the fingers pressed against her windpipe. She helplessly watched, as another wave hit Maggie who was screaming out in sheer terror, dragging the detective into a state of shuttering unconsciousness. "Ma...g...n...no.."
"You shouldn't...have kept such dangerous criminals in the same place agent. It was far, far too easy...to feed on Gayle. Now, I have YOU for my tastes. Let's be off now, Agent Danvers." Kalyste felt the moisture on her hand and knew the woman was crying. "Don't worry Alex, she will be found." A phone was held up and Alex watched, with the last of her clear vision, as her sister's number was dialed. With her feet off the ground, still in the powerful grip, the agent saw the device dropped beside her lover's head. "Time to go Alex."
Kalyste kept purring in the rather skilled fighter's ear, then tilted her head some and pulled Alex's head to the side. There..was the struggle she was hoping for. 'It will do you no good Alexandra. Now...you fall..' She slipped her lips passed the side of the agent's neck, to between it and the shoulder. 'Fall.' Kalyste's lips covered where she wished and slowly pressed her fangs down, until they pierced Alex's skin and she slipped them deeper in.
Alex gasped, the grip on her throat loosening, but she was unable to struggle anymore. The arm she had been fighting to get the hand off her throat, she now held onto tightly throwing her head back as far as it would go. Her body ignited in sensual flames and with that burn, heat pooled through her. She was unaware of them flying, or for that matter moving. Her eyes were so far back in her skull that darkness was the only vision given to her. 'You belong...to me now...beautiful creature..'
Kaylste purred, using her powers to elicit more control over the agent in her grasp. She flew to her penthouse, enjoying every wave after wave of sheer rapture she was spiking through the agent's overheated shaking body. By the time she was done with this human, Alex's will would cease to exist. Kaylste had only wanted the full blooded kryptonian, but this one...this one..was TRUE power..
As they sat in silence, in the agent and detective's home, it was Lena whom stood first, as her body cracked in a quite a few places. One of Kara's eyebrows rose at the sounds along with the groan from the CEO. Lena chuckled at the reaction, flexed a little, then walked over to the fridge for something to drink.
"Would you like something darling?" The Luthor slightly purred bringing a groan from the woman with her face over the counter, where Kara sat on the stool. She smiled at the blonde's shy nature, even after their glorious encounter in the shower. Although, on Lena's top ten list, marking an un-markable Kryptonian was definitely at the top of it now. Yet the woman still worried. Kara's eyes weren't her normal hue of beautiful blues. Instead, they were like two dark storms, with no way of knowing when those forces would pass.
"Is there anything that's not alcoholic in there?" Lena grumbled and Kara sighing while she messed with her phone. The blonde had sent yet another text to her sister, as a digging concern worked its way into her thoughts. Lena walked over with two cokes handing one to her lover. 'Oh, I want her to be that soooo badly.' The Luthor brought her bottom lip between her teeth right as Kara glanced up, still holding her phone. That one lip bite and it made the powerless Kryptonian crunch the full can tightly. She gasped as it sprayed everywhere and she rushed to the sink with her super speed gasping again. "Sorry Lee."
"Your powers!" Kara turned as Lena spat it out. "They're back?" The blonde drained the rest of her soda into a glass, washing off the empty can and tossing it into the recycle can a little too hard. The can rattled from the force of her Super speed and strength.
"It appears so, though I'm not sure how." Kara flexed her hands and fingers sighing. "Alex still hasn't responded back. Lee...I got a bad feel.." Both heard a rough pound at the door and Lena reached over to her purse, grabbing the gun from it. Kara used her x-ray vision to check who was through the door, rushing over quickly and pulling it open, just as she caught the shaking detective who fell into her arms. "Maggie? Maggie wha.." Kara immediately inspected the woman for injuries and when she didn't find any, she looked through the walls, searching for her sister.
"Maggie? What happened?" Lena asked coming over, as Kara brought her over to the couch and set her down. Tears were running down the trembling woman's face and she held up her hands that were shaking so much she couldn't focus on anything. "Maggie...Maggie where's Alex?"
"Maggie?"
"Sh..sh...sh...sh..she.." Maggie sobbed, coughing some. "Th..th...the fire..roa..roads sss...ss..soo cold...pllllleaaase d...dont le..leave papa…" Kara's eyes widened and knew exactly what had happened to Sawyer. She brought her head down and spoke softly in her ear.
"Maggie..you are the strongest woman I know Maggie Sawyer. You are a proud and fierce detective. Now show me that Maggie, Show me that woman MY sister loves!" The woman gasped coughing as the detective's hands clenched the edge of the coffee table. Her shakes slowly subsided and with them calmed, Maggie lifted her gaze to her little sister. "Maggie?"
We...we were ambushed outside the bar Supergirl." The blonde felt fear start to radiate through her entire body. "That woman was there...and...Ps..Psi. She...a wave...fear..." Kara's eyes shivered with even more fearful panic. "I don't know how she got out of the DEO but she was there." Maggie explained. "Wh...what you endured at the bank..she got stronger Kara. They are working together. I..I woke up...shivering so bad.." Sawyer noticed all the scratches along her arms and felt the sting of some on her face. ""Alex..Alex..where...she took her.."
"We, we will get her back Maggie. We'll get my sister back." Kara clenched her jaw and pushed herself onto her feet, as she walked over to the counter and grabbed one of their newer coms, that Alex had left her, slipping it into her ear. "Winn, you there?" Kara called out, hoping for an answer. "Winn? Winn...I need you to answer. Winn...Winn?"
"Who is Psi?" Maggie shuttered at the thought again.
"A metahuman, that has a power to generate these..waves that hit you and bring out your worst and I mean WORST fears. She hit Supergirl with a wave at the bank when it was robbed and I found Kara hunched in the corner of the safe and the look in her eyes, the tension in her body, the shakes..it was bad Lena. Like really REALLY bad."
Jesus." Lena stated, but the fear was already trickling through her with just the idea of someone with that kind of power in existence. The thought of someone like that, working with the one who had taken both sisters and attacked the detective, terrified the hell out of her. The CEO shook the negative thoughts away, just as Maggie yelled to the one that was heading towards the balcony door.
"KARA!" The hero looked back and into two sets of nervous and scared eyes.
"I can't just sit around! It's my sister!" The Kryptonian spat out with a slight aggression in her words. "Winn?" Kara heard her friend through the com and walked past both women, as she put a hand on the fridge door gasping. "Can you track her? You guys put a new tracker in her for a reason! What do you mean...it's not working?! How is that possible?! Don't give me excuses! FIND...MY...SISTER!" They watched Kara rip the com out of her ear and throw it so hard against the wall it shattered into pieces. "He can't...they can't find her.." The blonde collapsed to the floor, head in her hands as she broke into heavy tears. The CEO knelt down and took the fragile sobbing Super into her arms.
"Shit.." Maggie said with fists clenched, tears trailing down her own face and fear taking an even stronger hold over her thoughts that tore at her heart ruthlessly. "Where are you Danvers.."
The agent felt the darkness slowly subside, as her eyes opened only for her vision to still be in tatters. She blinked a few times, groans leaving her, with her head still foggy and her body heavier than it should be. Alex shook her head trying to rid the blurriness from her vision and gasped at what she saw. Below her was burgundy wine and black marbled floor, she barely could make out with how dark the room she was in actually was. The room..
Danvers studied the layout of what looked to be a master bedroom suite, that alone sending shivers through her. Instantly, she looked at her body and was relieved to see that she was clothed. For the most part. Her jacket and boots were on the floor by the fireplace that cracked with the break of the logs in the hearth. Alex looked back down and snarled. Her button down was off, but her tank and jeans were still on. Her feet were barefoot though, socks removed. She went to speak, finding her voice muffled. The agent bit down and felt something thick between her teeth. She bit down a few more times and discovered what was in her mouth wasn't any solid material like metal. With that answer, Alex looked up and her eyes instantly widened. She had felt her wrists tied, her arms over her head, but the knots...the knots..just like what Maggie had shown her. Maggie..
The agent found a new reason to fight her bindings and one kick of her feet and she realized they were bound, ankles tied together too. She hung helpless and swinging both feet forward didn't help her any. What was around her ankles, was attached to the wall. The fire crackled again and with the noises, she looked that direction. Flicking her gaze from the flames, around the dim black candlelit room and to the tapestries, she found nothing of familiarity. Then there was the strange scent in the air, bringing Alex's eyes back to the bigger of the black candles. Was it coming from them?
"Mmmmm…" That damn purr again..she wanted to puke. "You didn't think I would let you call out for help...did you?" The woman walked toward Alex and she thrashed in her bindings, until a hand came up, with a familiar item between two of her fingers. "Doesn't work anymore." Danvers snarled at her, glaring daggers at the bitch. "Best behave...or.." Alex shivered when her com was thrown into the fire and a hand grabbed her by the chin. "You don't want me touching the detective...do you? Do you?" She shook her head. "Good." Her chin was let go and she watched the bitch's movements carefully. A scraping sound caught more of her attention.
Kalyste purposely drug her sharp nails up and down the stem of her black and midnight purple chalice, listening to the human's heart that thundered beneath her chest. She heard how heavy the stunning agent's breaths were, knowing that the aroma in her chamber had almost everything to do with it. She felt when Alex's thoughts began to cloud and with that realization, she lifted up her drink and slowly walked back over. "Don't fight it beautiful Alexandra. Let it come." Kalyste told her hanging prize, reaching up and running a nail down the side of the human's face.
Her dark orbs flashed like a set of purple fires twice, with the ropes that were around Alex's ankles and attached to the wall behind her feet, falling to the floor. They flashed again and the ropes above the ones used to tie the agent's wrists, lowered her body some until her bare feet were just inches from the floor. "Let it come. Don't fight it Alexandra." She whispered against one of Alex's ears. The strong brown hues of fury, were clouded with her power. The heavier breaths and change in her heartbeat, warranted what the effect of her own planet's elements in her candles could do. Kalyste had used these on other beings, not on humans..yet.
She scraped two fingernails down Alex's face, then to her cheek and finally dragging one along Danver's bottom lip. The braided rope she had put between the agent's lips fell at her feet. She took the two fingers that were on her face and slid them under the human's chin, bringing her thumb to that soft bottom lip and drug it side to side slowly. "Let me have you Alexandra. Let me take you." Kalyste kissed the ear she was whispering in. "You're thirsty. So thirsty Alexandra. So thirsty."
"Thir...sty.." Alex had never known yearn, the way she did now. The energy she felt, was like hot licks of rich enticing preamble. She knew she was pooling from this, but she couldn't pull away. She didn't want to. She didn't want to fight this intense feeling that consumed her in every way possible. "Thir.."
"I'll help with that, dearest Alexandra." Kalyste smiled, purring as she lightly stroked the agent's earlobe with her tongue. "Drink." She brought the rim to her captive's lips, making sure to keep touching the agent's skin. "Drink." One nod and she tilted the glass and waited for Alex to do the rest. "Drink. Become more for me Alexandra." Kalyste fastened her lips over the earlobe she had been toying with, enjoying each gulp she heard from the well toned warrior. "Still thirsty?" She pulled her head back and removed the empty glass from a set of parched lips and watched as Alex's tongue ran along them. One set of browns, so much darker and fueled with a rich merlot now, met Kalyste's dark blues and midnight purple orbs. "What do you want Alexandra.."
"More." Alex felt as if she had become more powerful than Supergirl and she smiled at that, enjoying being stronger. Being...more. What she had tasted, was better than anything she had ever drank. She yearned to have more of whatever had been given to her, craving it like the very oxygen she needed to live. What she breathed in, smelled intoxicating and Alex wanted to bathe in the wonderful aroma of it. "More.."
"I'll give you more Alexandra." Kalyste purred and brought her lips to where she had marked the human by her bite. Now..she would be biting her again. Humans were a new thing to the fangs for canines, her father's kind bore. "Give yourself to me Alexandra. Give in, give yourself over to the power." She kissed the marks once then twice, slipping her fangs into the exact same spot she had before. Kalyste cooed, her eyes glowing in dark swirls of purple fire, as she listened to the sinful sweet moans from her captive.
She had no intention of fully taking the agent's beautiful body just yet. She easily read Alex's thoughts earlier, aware of the fiance that she had finally met in person. Kalyste had spent years learning other planet's cultures. She would never be that callus as to bring separation to two joined souls. The detective, she would take next. Until she did, she would bask in the life force of her glorious meal, feeding the human more and more of her power and the Aihaz-Eir. The drink alone, Kalyste always knew and took in to survive, would help when she turned the agent completely later.
Kryptonian blood, the blood of her mother. Daemvyr blood, the blood of her father and their people. Kalyste had both and now she fed the warrior, the beverage of her people. Slowly she slid her fangs out and when she did, merlot hues more than brown ones, locked onto her darkened purple eyes of pure power. "More?"
"More." Alex purred back, smiling as she licked her lips. She looked up at her tied wrists then back to the stunning creature before her.
"Do it." Kalyste commanded and with the two words spoken, she watched Alex snap the thick braided ropes made of materials from one of the moons of her home planet. The minute her bare feet touched the floor, she knew she had this one completely. Two spikes of her power into the agent by her bite and two full glasses of aizur and the results were positively arousing to Kalyste. She couldn't wait to make Alex like her. "How do you feel?"
Alex looked to the torn up ropes, to the pile of discarded items, then back to who had freed her. "Well?"
"I want...more." She drug her tongue over her bottom lip, losing herself to the intoxication of pure power. "Make...me...more." Kalyste laughed, enjoying how easy it was to bring out the inner darkness of her prize. She could give dear Alex what no other could. This warrior, who had strived to become stronger and smarter and learn everything she possibly could, would be exactly that. More..
"Sawyer? Maggie? Ugh...Detective!" Susan yelled, trying to get the woman to hear her. She knew that J'onn was out looking for her friend and fellow co-worker, but being responsible for running the DEO when both were away..
"I'm...I'm here." Maggie knew that things were bad, when tests run on her she didn't even feel. She couldn't feel the needle when Hamilton had drawn blood. She couldn't focus on the light in her eyes, or flinch when they tested her reflexes. Sawyer knew she needed to get her shit together, in order to help find her fiance.
"Are you?" A female voice asked and she looked up at the strange woman in the doorway. "Give me a few Vasquez."
"Behave Major." Susan told her friend, who nodded and she left the room.
"You've done your tests, taken blood...I've pissed in a cup! Go out there and FIND MY FIANCE!" Maggie yelled at the agent in front of her. "Go...find Danvers."
"You know, I thought that she was into girls."
"Who the fuck are you.." Maggie grumbled, then heard a gasp from the doorway.
"Lucy!" Kara yelled as this agent walked over to her friend.
"Wait...who?"
"You must be Lena." Lucy offered her hand and the CEO looked at it then her.
"Lucy? Lucy…"
"Lucy Lane. Well...Major Lane."
"Lena Luthor." Both women shook hands. "I'm gonna guess that Kara called you."
"You mean Supergirl? She did." Lucy heard the rustling and spun around quickly. "You don't need a gun with me or on me detective. I am here to help if I can. When did Danvers go missing?"
"That's Agent Danvers, to you." Sawyer snarled.
"My apology." Lucy ignored the grumbles and growls." J'onn filled in the details and asked me to come in to help out. He also scanned her for um...psychic residuals."
"DAMMIT!" All three woman jumped when a metal tray went crashing to the floor. "FIND ALEX! That bitch and Psi have her!"
"You're wrong."
"Excuse me?" Maggie needed a gun, just for this person.
"Gayle, aka Psi?"
"Yeah. Her."
"She's been on lockup since the DEO took her in after Kara stopped her the first time."
"What?" All three women looked at the woman.
"That's how we know that it wasn't her, that did that to you. I did...have tests run on her though." Lucy tossed her phone at the detective who surprisingly caught it. "Album two. Fourth row." She watched Lena and Kara come over, to see what was on the album.
"That's.." Maggie wasn't sure what she was seeing.
"Those marks." Lena muttered.
"Like vampire?"
"Not exactly. J'onn and I went through the alien database. He's explained to me, the twelve species that could do something like that. None that came from Earth. Then...there's this." Lucy held up a small vial bottle and Maggie instantly knew what it was. "Kara, what do you know about the Aihaz-Eir?"
"The wha? Kara?" Lena looked from Lucy, to her best friend, then back to the major.
"Little Danvers?" Kara's entire body shook by the name, her eyes no doubt showing the fear she felt.
"Ta Kao Rrrip.."
"I know enough. Tell me. Sokao. Please Kara. Whatever you know that can help us find Alex let's use it. Okay?"
"You said...eights?" Maggie sucked at the pronouncing things like this.
"No. a then i then h then a then z." Kara spelled out. "E then i then r. Aihaz-Eir."
"What is…"
"Why, do you bring tha.."
"Kara." Lucy closed the distance and put a hand on one of her friend's and the other on her arm. "The Daemvyr." She could see how much worse the blonde was shaking. "What was in your system, is from that moon. What is it Kara? Please."
"Aihaz-Eir. The Daemvyr...they have similar.." Kara put her hands on her face, rubbing it. "They are..like..what you read about in stories and see on tv. But..not the same. How do you even.."
"J'onn. Keep going."
"The…the Aihaz is…" One look at their faces and she knew there wasn't any escape from this. "It's a kind of...power."
"Like kryptonian?" Lena had certainly never heard of this before. Perhaps she should go through Lex's file.
"No. Their lifespan is similar to kryptonian. They have...like J'onn.."
"A form of telepathy?" The CEO would keep asking questions, until told to shut up.
"Not exactly." Kara started slowly pacing back and forth. "She couldn't...I wouldn't.."
"Darling?" Lena forgot where they were, getting a raised eyebrow for the term of endearment she used on Kara. "Kara?"
"No. She couldn't. I can't be.." It didn't make any sense to her. It made zero sense..
"Hey! Little Danvers!" Maggie tried not to yell, but she needed to find her fiance not chase ghost stories.
"What..do..you..know Kara.." Lucy would center the kryptonian if it was the last thing she did. "What Kar."
"Who else Luce." The Major didn't take it as a question, she knew exactly what Kara meant.
"Thirty off base. Ten on my own. Three, here." Lucy forced her friend to stop pacing. "Tell me."
"They can...manipulate..thoughts."
"What?!" Maggie didn't care how much blood she gave and jumped right off the table snarling. "You.." She shoved Kara angrily. "..couldn't..tell...me…"
"STOP!" Lucy barked, forcing both away from one another. "She didn't know who she was. Do you?"
"I don't." Kara dropped to the floor, but held out her hand that she was okay. "They manipulate thoughts. They can siphon energies. Bite...and absorb...powers. It doesn't...doesn't make any sense.."
"What doesn't." Lucy needed more to work with than just what her friend had just explained. "Tell me."
"The Daemvyr, can't..we aren't immune but...we..can't be turned."
"Turned?" Lena asked.
"She can't make you what she is." Lucy wasn't sure, what that had to do with this. She sure as hell was gonna find out. "Why bring that up.."
"She's after me." Kara said, just loud enough for them all to hear. Before they could yell her name, she was out the door. 'My own powers be damned. Alex, I'm bringing you home..'
"She's on her way." Alex practically purred as the fingers on her throat drug their nails up and down it. She shut her eyes and put her head back against the woman's shoulder.
"Mmmmm...good Alexandra." Kalyste had made Alex's full name enjoyable to her. She loved how she could flip every little thought….for her motives. "You will need to drink more, before our GUEST arrives."
"I want, to be the one to.." Danvers felt her back dropped onto the floor. "Dammit.."
"Your techniques need fine tuning Alexandra." She purred.
"Want me to kick your ass Kalyste?" Alex jumped back onto her feet. She had been training with Kalyste, who's name she had just been told, for three days.
"Thinking about your lover?" The agent was quick to move, but so was she.
"I want to see her Kalyste." She relaxed her form, gasping when she was thrown at the wall. Before she could collide with it, her wrists were grabbed and yanked up above her head.
"Patience." She read the agent's thoughts far easier after feeding Alex more and more of what kept her trapped by her powers. 'I will bring her to you soon Alexandra. You will help me get what I want and I...will help you have what YOU want.'
"Yes." Alex answered Kalyste's command. "Forgive me."
"Nothing to forgive." Kalyste let her go, both of them locking eyes. "You, get Maggie. I...I get your sister." She tested to see how deep her influence had been to the ravenous human.
"Reading my mind Kalyste?" Alex smirked. "I won't turn on you, if that's why you are checking my thoughts."
"She's your sister Alexandra."
"Adopted sister. You promised not to hurt her. I trust you."
"Do you?" Kalyste tossed her phone to the agent. "Do you.." She waited for the reaction and got exactly that.
"TEN DAYS?! You've kept me...kept me HERE...TEN DAYS?!" Alex was beyond furious..
"Eleven." She ripped the phone right out of the agent's hand. "Now...eleven."
"Shisir Rrip!" Kalyste watched the hot-headed beauty crack, counting on it. She easily grabbed one of Alex's wrists and flew towards the far wall. The moment the furious woman's back met the surface, she had one of her ropes ready. "Fahtul!"
"I can't do that, Alexandra. I can't let you go."
"Sohao. Please..please I'm sorry." Alex felt like a fool, for thinking she could lash out at Kalyste like that. "Please.." The moment the ropes were knotted around her wrists, all strength left her body. "Zhalish Khap."
"Forgive you?" She watched and waited for the nod from her obedient human. With that one nod, she easily ripped away the knotted bindings. "Don't do this again, Alexandra." Kalyste smiled, when Alex hit her knees and bowed her head. "You are forgiven. Go. Shower. Change."
Alex got back onto her feet and ran from the training room, still shaking. 'That was stupid. Damn you Danvers! Damn you and your STUPID actions!' She knew that things could have been a lot worse by her...temper tantrum. She forced herself into the bathroom and quickly shut one door then the other, locking them too.
"I'm….I'm giving.." She turned on the water, stripping her training wardrobe and climbing in the shower, she had turned on after locking the doors, adjusting the temperature. "I'm giving my own...sister...to her.." That's exactly what she was doing and she knew it too. She was handing her brave, caring, selfless sister over to a woman that could have killed her. Alex reached for the body wash and gasped at what she saw. "Flecks." The realization slammed into her in an instant. "She's been drugging me." She shook those thoughts away, acting on training alone. J'onn had shown her how to think not act and act not think.
Alex reached up and felt for what she knew was behind her skin. Once she had found it by touch and grabbed her shaving razor, she quickly disassembled it and forced only one thought into her head. Maggie. "I'm gonna marry you Sawyer. We are gonna get married, buy a house with a giant backyard, have a dog...maybe two...lot's of firsts. Lots and lots of firsts." She kept thinking of nothing but Maggie and everything happy to do with the woman that had made her feel real love. Alex focused on that and knew that Kalyste would be out for a few hours. Something about the daylight, she hated."
Sure enough, she heard the bitch's voice.
"I expect you decent when I get back and READY to train."
"I'll be ready Kalyste." Alex answered, regulating her heartbeat and breathing patterns. "I'll be ready." She knew she was alone again and waited a moment before slicing into her arm. The agent didn't think, just acted. Right now, she had one mission and only one. Her thoughts stayed on Maggie. Alex would keep her fiance and sister in her heart, but only Maggie in her mind.
Danvers slid the tracker out and quickly ignored the blood. She grabbed the blade and used the end to puncture the top of housing. Alex looked at the circuits and kept thinking about Sawyer. She thought about what kind of dogs they would get. She thought about what kind of flowers to get for the wedding. She thought about them taking their bikes out to an empty race track and smiled at the notion of kicking Maggie's ass at something else too. Alex chuckled and started humming the first song they danced to on Valentine's Day and how their first game of pool went.
The agent just kept her fingers busy and thought about what color to paint their house and what car she wanted to get in the future. She wasn't even aware that the light on the tracker had blinked on. Alex considered what grill to get when she barbecued steaks and ribs while Maggie made the potatoes that only Sawyer knew how to do. She began to contemplate a new leather jacket for the detective, when a loud crash knocked all other thoughts away. "Kalyste?"
Alex ignored the pain in her arm, the blood pool at her feet and the blade laying on the drain grate. "Kalyste?" She shifted her weight and adjusted her stance, preparing for a fight. "Kalyste?"
"Alex?" The voice alone, had Alex flinging open the shower door. "Alex!" Danvers ignored the fact that she was naked in front of her little sister, far too happy to see Kara's beautiful cerulean and sky blues eyes. "Alex, you're bleed.."
"Hmm hmm hmm hmmmm...mmmmm. Far...TOO easy."
"No!" Kara was quick to turn and shield Alex from who she recognized instantly. "You.."
"Did your dearest sister not tell you? She was to bring you here...to me."
"Lies." Zor-El wouldn't stand for anyone hurting HER sister.
"Is it?" 'Was Psi a lie?' Kalyste watched the kryptonian's body language and easily read her thoughts. She knew exactly what to do next. "She begged.." Her eyes looked past the hero's head and knew that Alex's eyes were on her. "...begged..me to give her more."
"A lie. We are leav.."
The kryptonian dropped at their feet and Alex looked at her raised arm and gasped, backing up further into the shower.
"I warned you Alexandra. You didn't want to listen to my words." Kalyste purred and stepped over to the unconscious Zor-El, coming into the shower and putting a calm hand on the side of the shaking agent's head. "Shhhh. It's okay."
"You...made me...hit her."
"Just, knock her out. I didn't make you hurt her did I? Did I?" She stroked the side of Alex's face. "Did I?" A shake of head brought a sweet dark smile to Kalyste's lips. "Good girl. Finish up and bring her to the chamber. I'll be waiting." Alex already knew how bad she was shaking. "Don't make me wait long."
She would leave the two sisters time to catch up, knowing that the agent would blame herself for the state the Super was in and how she had brought her to Kalyste. Now….the fun could reeeeeally begin. She left a full glass of what she knew would snap the little control, she let the human have. It had been the perfect bait trap. She had used her power to reactivate the tracker, when she had tied Alex's wrists together. She listened for the tempo of Zor-El's heartbeat and waited for the moment it changed. Kalyste listened to the static and knew no one knew she had been out flying around again. "You shouldn't have told everyone that your powers weren't back...should you?"
Kalyste had known everything. She knew all about the blood results. She knew about the small little samples she had purposely left behind. She knew about how the martian had been taking on Supergirl duties. She knew exactly how the detective was doing, since the night she had left with the agent after using her stolen powers on Sawyer. She knew how badly Zor-El's cravings were getting. She read both sisters, perfectly. Now...now she had BOTH of them..
