With heavy-hearted reluctance, J'onn had to remain at base and run all operations from his office until things calmed down in the city from the disappearance of their caped girl of steel. The minute he had flown into the command center with a pained expression and burning red orbs, they knew it was bad. Then the Major and acting Co Director had pulled the CEO and Detective Sawyer into the conference room and the Martian Man hunter had dropped two coms on the table.
Lena and Maggie both felt their hearts slam to a halt. They knew what it meant and none of them had any clues or breadcrumbs to finding the Danvers sisters. Sawyer had left to make a call and the youngest Luthor had headed off in the same direction, as they decided to say to hell with it and leave the DEO for fresh air.
The detective had climbed in the passenger side of the billionaire's black Lamborghini, when Lena had locked the doors and told Maggie to buckle up and shut up. Once buckled, the driver brought a gloved finger to her lips and tapped a button on the steering wheel.
"Call 76422 code 5." Sawyer looked over at the woman, confused as all hell.
"Calling Correctional extension. Dialing Lillian Luthor." Maggie gasped and slapped her hand on the center dash to cancel the call quickly.
"What the FUCK Sawyer!" Lena was glad she didn't have heat vision or the detective would be ashes on the seat by now.
"Fuck that, Little Luthor."
"Got a better suggestion?"
"One." Maggie put in a number she knew far too well and knew Lena was watching her. Sawyer hit the call button and saw the Luthor mouth speaker. Grumbling, she pushed the speaker button. When it stopped ringing, a female voice came on and the driver's eyes widened by the name she saw on the screen.
"Must be reaaaaaally missing Gotham or missing my tongue between your.."
"Behave yourself Kate. I need some info."
"Straight to the point Margarita, as usual. Gotten past the Detective gig yet?"
"Kane." Maggie growled.
"Fine fine fine. Must not be getting much puss.."
"I...am...engaged Kate." Sawyer knew the sudden drop of news would hurt her ex, but she didn't know who else to call that could help her find Alex and Little Danvers.
"Like that stopped us both before? I'll behave. Talk." Lena focused on the road, making a left to her other townhouse just as Maggie was about to explain to her ex about the missing Danvers duo.
"I need...WHAT THE FUCK?!" Both women felt shock and fury building quickly.
"Mags?"
"Gotta call you back Kate." Sawyer put her hand on her hip and reached for her sidearm, noticing Lena opening a hidden compartment under the steering wheel and pull out her own gun quickly. "Where the fu.."
"Luthor, Sawyer. Always be prepared." Neither had expected the bitch that had caused all the chaos and taken their Danvers, to now be in front of a car that should have been still moving.
"Step out…..both of you." The devil woman practically purred the words and it made them want to say to hell with the front window and just go to town unloading their clips on her. "Come now, Margarita...Kieran. Get. Out. I won't ask again."
"I'll take murder for five hundred Alex."
"Must...you use my fiance's name for your points?" Maggie grumbled. "I'll take torture techniques...for a THOUSAND."
"I'll share the winnings and buy you your own billiard hall." Lena cocked the gun in her hand and Maggie removed the safety on her own, doing the same. "I have.."
"Me too." Sawyer was going to enjoy making the bitch burn with kryptonite poisoning.
"Ladies." Kalyste smiled as both exited the vehicle, guns raised. "I didn't expect anything less from you two."
"Where.." Maggie snarled, walking forward with target locked.
"..is.." Lena growled, removing one hand from her gun. She could easily drop the bitch with the use of her opposite trigger hand.
"Danvers?!"
"You want to know?" Both women felt a powerful gust of wind, then the bitch was gone from their sight. "Drop them." Maggie and Lena shivered at how close she was, now standing right behind them. "Drop them."
"No." Lena growled deeper, disdain dripping from her response.
"Detective."
"Give them back." Maggie needed to stay calmer for both of them.
"Holster them then." Kalyste smiled when the detective did as she requested. "Well?"
"Lower it Luthor." Sawyer spoke reserved. "Lower it."
"Arg…..fine." The CEO lowered her arm, keeping the gun in her hand at her side.
"Gooood." Kalyste purred chuckling, grabbing both women by one side of their heads as their gasps were music to her ears. "Just...relax." She knew, the moment she had the slightest physical contact with their minds….they were done for..
"Lee….g...g….get.." Maggie felt the invasion, the instant the bitch touched one of her temples. She hadn't even realized that Lena had dropped her gun or that the holster on her hip, where her own was, was gone. "Le….g...go.."
"Theeeeeere. There you go. Let it come." She put her head back laughing, as both women dropped at her feet. "Too easy. Your little weapons and radios wouldn't have done you any good anyway ladies. Off we go…"
Alex had known that she had been foolish before. She knew that she would pay for it. But this? Danvers groaned and looked up at the dreaded knots on her wrists, that were bound to the ring she hated with a fiery passion. Realizing her predicament, the agent sighed and focused on the room and gasped at what she saw. Nothing. She bit down and felt the braided rope, trying to growl but no noise was heard. She tried to lift her unbound legs, but they were like dead-weight. Alex tried to fight, but not one part of her body would move. Danvers wanted to cry but felt no emotions suddenly. What the hell was happening to her?
"A..ex.." Kara tried to say through the whatever was between her teeth. She fought what her wrists were tied with behind her back, as she lay on her side on the marble stone floor. Her eyes were locked on her sister and noticed how Alex's head hadn't moved at all except for once. Kara needed to get free, get them both free and away from where they were being kept. "A…..nnnn...nnnnooo.." Her disheveled blues watched two figures drug into the massive chamber room and felt herself stop breathing.
"Sssshhhhh…" Kalyste told her beautiful bound kryptonian. "This is why your sister was sooooo easy to trap." She held up a glass and walked over to the agent, hanging from the knotted ropes and ripped away the gag as it fell to the floor. "Watch Zor-El." She ran her fingers along the side of Alex's face, as a smile slid over her lips when Danvers smiled back. "Better Alexandra?" Kalyste heard the growls and listened to the raging thoughts of her two conscious captives on the opposite end of the room. "Better?"
"Better Kalyste." Alex put her head back, as the rim of the chalice was brought to her lips. Just as she thought that she would get the drink she had been craving, the glass was pulled away. "Whaa.." Her wrists were freed and she dropped to her feet.
"Here." Kalyste handed her beautiful creature the glass and chuckled as the agent practically downed the whole thing in three gulps. Every single time Alex touched the glass for herself more and more of the incredible warrior's willpower faded. The elements, that the simple metal looking goblet were made out of, were a way to cement her powers into her chosen prey. "Still thirsty?"
"Always." Alex licked her lips and handed over the empty cup. "Didn't you say something about company?"
"I did? Ohhhh yes. I did." Kalyste was practically foaming at the mouth. The fact that Alex couldn't see or hear who was in the room with them, proved how strong her hold on the agent was now. Time for the three in the room to have a taste of their future fates. "Remove the vest."
"Kinky thoughts so early Kalyste? I can do that." Alex smirked and began to unlace her training vest, unbuckling the sides and unhooking the small clasps. "You know my one stipulation." Danvers let the vest fall, leaving her top half completely exposed. "I'm hers."
"Mmmmmm...I know. Shame...I could enjoy BOTH of you." She watched Alex turn around and Kalyste glanced down at the three on the floor. "I might drink this time." She purred and slid her hand along the front of Alex's throat, tilting her head back. "What would you do...if...I did?"
"Drink..and tell me." Alex purred back with a smirk piercing her lips. "Make me stronger."
"Stronger than Supergirl?" Her eyes burned with dark purple fires, swirling in black smoke, as she looked down and met the detective's angry and terrified eyes. "Well?"
"Make me MORE than her." She was ready. "Drink." Kalyste drug her lips down the side of Alex's throat, then toward where she had already bitten the agent several times. "Drink."
"Ohhhh dearest Alexandra...I already have." She chuckled and slid her fangs over her markings, as they slipped into the warm sweet spot she had found enticement in keeping as her own. Kalyste had been drinking from Alex, just not blood. She had been siphoning off her energies and using her hold to shift her thoughts more and more. She kept her powerful stare on Sawyer's frantic begging face, for her to let Maggie's fiance go. Every single moment that she kept her fangs in Alex's shoulder, she used the tips to spike arousal through her skilled fighter.
"Ohhhhh Kalyste.." Alex couldn't help it, the fangs in her body were driving her mad with sexual frustration and she was sooooo ready to BEG for it. Instead, she pushed the thought and then said it out loud. "Ohhhhhhhh….ohhh...bring her here...bring her...fuuuuuck..bring her here Kalyste. Please...pleeeeease..I'll bite her.." Danvers gasped as the fangs left her shoulder and her legs buckled so bad she dropped to the floor. "Why di.." The brown eyes of her beautiful loving fiance, were looking right at her. "When..did...you.."
"Before...or AFTER she heard you moan for me?" Kalyste snickered and walked right over to her struggling kryptonian.
"Kalyste! KALYSTE!" Alex lost it and let the power fill her eyes. She jumped onto her feet and rushed at who had been toying with all of them..
"Fool." She let her eyes slip darker and when they did, Alex's shifted too. "Calm down a moment." She listened to the agent's body carefully. "Calmer?"
"Yes." She walked over to Kalyste calmly and stopped at her side. "I don't like people touching those that belong to me Kalyste."
"I know. Pick her up." She watched Alexandra easily lift her sister up by the shirt, holding her off the floor, as she made her way to the other two and ripped the gags off their faces. "Snap the ropes and put her hands above her head. I...want you...to TIE her wrists." Kalyste heard her beautiful creature purr and grab the rope material off the table as the agent took the shaken Super to the wall. "She's quite the catch...isn't she Detective?"
"I'll kill you.." Maggie snarled, fighting the ropes tied around her wrists. "I will ENJOY doing so!"
"I will ignore your threats and the daggers you both are throwing at me, through your glares. I want you to listen." Kalyste told them. "Listen."
"You are USING Kara's sister on her!" Lena fired back. "Why would WE listen to YOU?!"
"Alexandra." She didn't want to do it this way. "Bring Kara Zor-El here."
"Knots are done. Yes." Alex grabbed the thickest part of the knotted line and brought her sister over to Kalyste. "Anything you want Kalyste.." Her body tensed suddenly, the moment a hand stroked the side of Kara's face. She blinked a couple times with her head much clearer.
"Tell them Kara." Kalyste told the first sister she had tasted. "Tell them."
"No….please..no." Kara was shaking, her entire body helpless in both her sister's and who she now knew to be Kalyste...her grasp. "Please.."
"You may think me a monster Kara. Think what you will. I am not Udol or Zhgehv Chaiahm."
"World Killer?" Alex didn't know what it was about, what was said to Kara, but she stepped back and held onto her little sister. "Kar?"
"Udol." Kalyste explained. "They will come, like fire and brimstone...DESTROYING everything they touch. The evil here, isn't me. Feed them what is on the table Alexandra. I will return." She didn't let her warrior respond, taking off out of the room.
"DAMMIT!" Alex yelled and quickly tore off the ropes from her sister's wrists and the moment she did, Kara's arms came around the back of her neck. "I'm here sis. I'm here." Danvers lowered them both to the floor by her fiance and friend, ripping off their bindings too. "I'm so sorry Mags."
"Hey…" She reached up and slid her fingers into her gorgeous badass' short hair. "Do me a favor...okay?"
"Anything." Alex felt the loving touch of Maggie's and it made her feel a bit better after everything.
"Don't be stripping in front of Little Luthor okay?" Sawyer smiled, flashing her signature dimples. Danvers turned beet red and she couldn't help but laugh.
"Ugh….sorry Lena." Alex grumbled, embarrassment showing completely on her face. She placed her shaking sister in the Luthor's open arms and then had her top thrown at her face by the detective. "Mags.."
"Danvers." Maggie cupped the agent's face and pressed her lips to a set of quivering ones. 'Don't do that again Kalyste. Got it bitch?!' Their kiss deepened and Sawyer nearly shivered when she heard the laughter in her head. 'Then understand, I didn't come for world domination. I didn't come to kill. I didn't come to take Supergirl away from the world. I came to help. This home of my own, is filled with everything you need for the moment. Consider what I left in the glasses on the table. Consider the words I spoke before carefully Detective. I am not the evil. Ask your..Little Danvers...about Juru.'
Sawyer thought about what she was told and held onto Danvers, while they watched their little sister sob in the Luthor's arms. "Easy kid." Maggie and Alex scooted closer and the agent held one of Kara's hands as the detective rubbed up and down the blonde's back. Lena kept rocking her selfless beautiful best friend's body gently, stroking her hair to help calm the trembling Super. "You're safe."
"You're safe darling." Lena said as sweetly as she could and felt when Kara's body slumped against her. "Rest love." She went to lay back with her best friend, but Alex lifted the kryptonian easily. "Dare I ask?"
"Better that you don't." The agent told her friend. "I….I'll show you around. We all need food, especially Kar. I need to explain things and I need you guys to just...trust me."
"I'm not drinking that shit." Maggie warned her fiance. Lena looked at the detective, as did the agent. "I'm not."
"Follow me and listen...both of you." Alex grumbled, adjusting her arms while carrying her snoring sister out of the room.
"I'm still not drinking that shit." Sawyer repeated, still weary of how Danvers could move as freely as she could with Little Danvers in her arms. Maggie remembered their conversation once, about how heavy Kara actually was. Alex had explained to her fiance about how gravity may have been kind to the girl of steel, but not anyone carrying the dead-weight blonde.
"How does she look that.."
"Light? I told you two, listen. Let me talk and explain and then you two can throw whatever shit you both want to at me. Okay?"
"Fine." Both the detective and CEO grumbled at the same time. They kept from saying a word as Alex unloaded everything she knew about and asked for what she missed. Lena talked first, as Maggie sat with Kara on the sofa. Their concerns grew with how pale the kryptonian's complexion was. Then the blonde's body began to shake harder and Alex stopped talking, walking over to bend down and check on her sister.
"You didn't force.." Lena shut her mouth with the merlot hue she saw in the agent's usual brown eyes.
"I…" Alex stood back up and stepped away. "I don't know." She put her head back. "Kalyste...did you?"
"Are you nut.." Lena went to finish her sentence until Maggie's hand came over her mouth.
"Did she?" 'No.' All three of them heard that, clear as day. "Point made."
"What was that whole business about the knots?" Lena wanted to know as much as she could before she made any choices. Alex walked over to the fully stocked fridge and pulled out a bottle of iced tea, grabbing a glass and walking back over. She handed it to her fiance, who looked at her funny.
"It's sealed." Maggie realized what her love had done, understanding the reason she did it that way.
"Here." Sawyer handed the bottle back to Danvers. "My wrists hurt."
"Riiiiiiight." Alex smirked and twisted the cap off.
"Do we have straws?"
"Whaaa?" The detective wasn't sure how far off in left field Little Luthor was, but she was burying herself into a dugout at this rate..
"For...Kara. She might not be able to hold a glass and I thought a straw would help her. Who takes care of your ass when you are sick?" Lena asked them both, who pointed at the other. "I shouldn't have eeeeeven asked."
"I think there might be some bendy ones in the second cabinet to the left of the fridge." Alex chimed in.
"Bendy? Maggie mentioned and Alex glared. "Just Sayin'."
"Shit...MOVE!" Alex pushed them both away and grabbed her sister, running for the bathroom. "No...don't do this to me sis. C'mon.." The minute she got through the door, she froze on the spot. "Fuck.."
"Alex wha...holy hell." Maggie noticed the state the massive bathroom was in and gasped. "Who pissed off the shower?"
"Kara did." Alex explained. "Shit.." She shut her eyes and focused. 'Kalyste, where is there another bathroom. I need to...is she sick from what I've drank?' Not getting any response, the agent carried her sister out, about to go looking for one when she got an answer. 'Make a left when leaving that one. There are two halls. Take the second one and the third door on the right. I haven't given her any yet. There is a sunlamp setup down the same hall. I am PART kryptonian too Alexandra.'
"Danvers?" Maggie asked, as both her and Lena followed the running agent. "Alex?"
"Alex? Alex...how did you.." Lena already knew the answer before she could ask it. "Is it dehydration?"
"I don't know. Kalyste? Is she sick?" Alex wasn't sure what was happening to her sister, but part of her knew that the one that had kept her there and brought the three of them to her, wasn't responsible.
Kalyste remained floating over her estate. She knew the way she had gone about everything hadn't been the right one. She understood the anger and fear, of her and what she had told them. She listened to their frantic thoughts, focused on the mantra that one sister gave the other. This always interested her, these...bonds. She wouldn't separate these four from each other again.
She couldn't help but wonder...when the first of the evils showed herself, could the others do what Zor-El couldn't? Kara didn't believe in killing. Perhaps Kalyste needed to explain what evil would come her way if she didn't..
"She won't hesitate." She needed her beautiful kryptonian beauty to understand the danger...of the Devil. "She will kill you. She will kill them." Kalyste would give the planet's Supergirl...a taste of both the sun and moon. "It's the only way. The eclipse will make her powerless and with it...Reign will strike her down. I will not take her powers away Alexandra. I won't do that. I need her...to take in...mine. I need them too. I need them too.."
She vowed to protect the four of them from the future threat. Kalyste knew about Kara's nightmares and that the kryptonian didn't know what they were about. She made her mistakes and she would rectify them by her actions. The agent had been the first one to cave to the drink. Now...she would explain that it wasn't out of possession, but protection. "I will explain everything to them tonight. They need rest. I...need rest."
"KALYSTE?!" Alex's screams broke Kalyste out of her train of thought immediately, as she flew back down and toward the terrified voice of the agent's. Had the World Killer, Reign, shown up early..?
Her body remained an immovable object, unaware of the two women that were fighting to get past her frame. She didn't hear their screams at her or pleas to get to who was behind her. She didn't know, with hands on their bound wrists and both on their knees in tears, that her actions were resulting in two broken hearts. She wasn't aware...of any of it..
"D...Dan...vers...wa...wake...up.." The fight in Maggie flat out left her after two hours, her head down and body too weak to keep trying to get through to her fiance. She sobbed into her love's leg, knowing it was no use with Kalyste's control over Alex. Barely turning to her left, Sawyer knew how the Luthor felt. Lena's fists were clenched, even with the hopeless grip on the knotted ropes between their wrists.
"Alex...pleaaase Alex..please...it's your...your sister agent. Please...please Alex..Kar...Kara needs...needs us. She needs you...needs her sister.." She should have known, the yearn to help them...was NOTHING but a lie.
Kalyste had to make the decision, the moment she heard Alex scream for her aid. When she flew over to the blonde's spasming body, the ideals of being a force for good..ended. Then she commanded skilled Alexandra, choosing her own selfishness over those that the selfless blonde kryptonian would sacrifice herself for and has sacrificed herself for, to bind the two and keep them out of the room she took Zor-El to. Now, in the room that is used for the yellow sun radiation, she had flipped the switch with the red lamps coming on. Kalyste let the darkness fuel her, as her eyes burned their shades of purple haze and with that power, she let go of all notions of humanity.
"Time to deplete your solar cells completely, Daughter of Rao." She let that side of her blood, the daemvyr side, take hold completely. Her regret, of using her warrior to bind the other two and guard the door, was long forgotten. Kalyste should have finished the job when she had her kryptonian the first time. She wouldn't make that mistake again. She focused the powers she had absorbed from each creature that had crossed paths with her, easily sensing when Zor-El's body had become practically human. "Alexandra.." Kalyste purred out and listened to the gasp from her loyal soldier.
She blinked several times and with her vision and hearing returned, her entire body began to shake. Alex looked down and instantly let go of the knotted strands of ropes between Lena and Maggie's wrists. She hit her knees and practically tore off the bindings on both women. The minute they were gone, Alex looked at her hands and felt the ramifications of what they had done to her love and friend. Tears rolled down her face, the shaking of shame and guilt became trembles of unbridled rage.
"Danv...ALEX!" Maggie forced herself onto her feet, regardless of how unsteady her balance was, trying to reach out to her love before all hell broke loose.
"You...youuuu USED ME ON THEM! BITCH!" Alex screamed, as she spun around and rushed into the room with a closed fist. "BITCH!" She was about to teach this half-breed a thing or two about why NO ONE messed, with Agent Danvers. "GET AWAY FROM MY SISTER!"
"I warned you Alexandra." Kalyste turned around and smiled when she saw the shock on the agent's face with how quick she had moved. She closed her fist and drove it directly into Alex's gut, sending her foolish pet right out of the room and into the hall. The warrior's body dropped beside the other two humans and Kalyste put her attention back on who had slightly groaned. "You'll feel better soon my sweet one."
"FUCKING MONSTER!" Lena yelled and tossed the detective the second gun she was holding. "RELEASE HER!" She fired round after round, stopping after unloading an entire clip and reaching out to have Maggie quit shooting. "Force...field.."
"Wha?" Sawyer noticed it too, as both came closer to the doorway. The detective reached out and instantly felt the electrical current when she tried to put her hand through the invisible wall. "Fu….fuck! Danvers? DANVERS!" Alex slammed her fists into the doorway, kicking and punching at the shield.
"KARA?! KARA! KARA WAKE UP!" The agent screamed. She was determined to get back inside again, but every punch and kick she attempted was frying her body with each passing charge. "KARA! NOOOO! NO! DAMMIT NO!"
"Your three little humans are giving a valiant effort to your cause, my beautiful Zor-El. They will learn, their futile efforts are in vain. It's time...I tasted you again. You remember.." Kalyste whispered into her shivering captive's ear, as she held a familiar crystal in her hand and drug the sharp tip of it over the blonde's bare body. "Open those mesmerizing eyes for me, sweet one. Theeeere you go." She reached over and put her fingers around the stem of the full glass, bringing it up to Kara's face. "Thirsty, aren't you?"
"NO! KARA! DON'T! RELEASE SUPERGIRL!" All three of the pathetic humans just made Kalyste laugh. She already had planned for such a brazen attempt, knowing her enthralled prey couldn't hear any of them.
"Thir...sty.." Kara wanted what was in the gorgeous woman's hand so badly. She hadn't even realized her predicament. She didn't know that three people she loved and cared about were fighting with everything to get to her. She wasn't aware she was naked. She couldn't fathom anything else but who had come to her again and what she craved to drink down.
"Let's take care of that then hmmm?" Kalyste smiled and slid onto the table, pulling her delicious pet's body up some. With the blonde's back against her chest, one hand holding the chalice close to her lips and the other resting between Zor-El's legs, she had her right where she wanted her. "One little taste again my sweet. One taste.." She felt her fangs burn to be back under the kryptonian's skin, watching the three gazes of absolutely agony as two long gulps sealed the hero's fate. "Thaaaaaat's it. Drink it all Daughter of Rao. How I will enjoy you again."
Her voice was like pure liquid seduction to Kara's ears and as she finished what she had been given, a hand slid around her throat as it tilted her head back some. Kisses along the side of her neck deepened her yearn. The hand between her legs was a sultry promise of more to come. She dropped the empty glass, arching back against the one that set fires to her body with flames of maddening arousal. Kara flung her head back and grabbed both of Kalyste's arms, one that bore the hand that rubbed her possessively and one that rested at her chest with the hand still on her throat.
Kalyste's eyes flashed twice with scorching purple fires and when they did, the force field ceased to exist. Quickly, the three women ran in and she bore her fangs even more to spur on their fury. "You want me to taste your body again….don't you my beautiful Zor-El?"
"Pleeeeease…" Kara moaned for her and finally saw the three blurry female bodies that stood in front of her. "More.."
"Say it for me sweet one...say Supergirl is gone. Say it and I will give you everything and more. Say it." Kalyste danced her fingers against the drenched folds of who she had wanted most of all.
"How about.." The sharpest of blades met Kalyste's throat and she hissed the moment it made contact with her skin. "You take your filthy grubby paws off my tattooless friend. Deal?"
"Wha the.." Alex noticed the sword, so similar to the one she had bore during Myriad, then to the woman in nothing but a black leather outfit that held the blade tightly. "Who the.."
"See...that woman you have...that woman and I have a date in the future. You know ALL about the future and the World Killers and all that jazz, don't you? See, that gorgeous and inkless body isn't yours. I don't take kindly to those that threaten future bedfellows bitch. You suck at trackers by the way."
"Ka...Kate?" Maggie was floored and both Alex and Lena looked at the detective confused. "How?"
"Still got that fabulous nipple piercing Margarita? Trackers are adorable aren't they.."
"Get your...arggg.."
"Uh uh. Set her down and stand up. My cousin has a ton of nifty toys and I have a ton of spare time. Altered kryptonite and sparklers make for FUN toys. My blade can slice your half n' half blood filled body in itty bitty pieces. Hands off her. Theeeeere we go. Stand up bitch."
"Kane...you're a.."
"Save the pillow talk for later. There is a bag behind me and in it is a set of cuffs and four smaller bottles." Kate told her ex and instantly she heard Sawyer rummage through her bag of tricks. "Find them?"
"Not eeeeven gonna ask." Maggie handed Alex and Lena the bottles. "Handcuffs?"
"Couldn't help it. They aren't for me this time though. Put your hands on your head." Kate ordered, pressing the blade into the bitch's throat. With her warning, the hands went up. "Cuff her."
"With pleasure." Sawyer grinned and slapped the restraints on Kalyste's wrists. The minute they were on, the monster dropped at their feet. "Whoa.."
"I do like to bring the best party favors Mags." Kate kicked the woman in the face as hard as she could with her steel toe boots. "Never….fuck...with Batman's cousin."
"Who? Kara!" Alex didn't like how badly her sister was shaking.
"Give me one of the bottles." Kate told them and Lena handed one over. "This is gonnnnna be a tad strong for her. Consider it espresso for kryptonians." She ripped the lid right off and tilted Kara's head back, as she emptied the contents into the blonde's mouth. "Don't be afraid Kara." Kate pushed Supergirl's head back and kept it there until the woman swallowed what she had been given. "There."
"You tracked me?"
"You didn't return my call. You know how I get when you ignore me."
"The calls ended when I left Gotham. How do you...know...Little Danvers?"
"I'd like to know that myself actually." Lena added.
"Same here." Alex grumbled.
"She...comes over to MY neck of the woods...in...the future."
"Come again?"
"Some asshole, with abandonment issues steals this book and rewrites shit aaaaaand let's just say...I learn about how she can see all of MY tattoos aaaaand...I guess that she doesn't have any...yet." Kate kicks the unconscious bitch in the head again. "Here." One toss of her favorite blade to the stunning soldier, who catches it, has her walking closer to the woman.
"Kate." Maggie slightly growled, ready to step between her fiance and ex if she needed to.
"She will be okay. There is a formula in the bag for what I made. Girls gotta have a hobby. Who might you be?"
"Agent Danvers." Alex locked gazes with Kate. "Special Agent Alex Danvers. Mag's...FUTURE wife." She had expected the woman to take a hint and apparently...had expected wrong.
"Pleasure Alex." Kate smiled, stepping directly into the beautiful agent's personal space. "Call me."
"Excu.." Alex gasped when the woman lunged in and kissed her roughly and with her mouth already ajar, a tongue dove right in and drug along her own.
"Mmmmmm...thanks for the fun. Tell Supergirl I look forward to finding out when I get to draw on her gorgeous body!"
"Later." Both Maggie and Alex said to each other.
"Kara? Kara?" The three women put all their focus on the one whose eyes had just came into view. "Darling?"
"Lee...uggghhh...throat hurts." Kara's gaze widened when she realized she was naked. "Clothes!"
"Oh boy...here Kar." Alex grumbled and handed her sister the black leather trench-like jacket.
"Where are my clothes?" She held tightly to the coat that covered her from both her sisters' view. "This is a nice jacket."
"Burning later." Lena and Alex muttered under their breaths.
"Looks like...Kate left you a new toy Alex?"
"Batwoman." Maggie told them. "If that sword will keep that from touching Little Danvers, then by all means...use it. "
"Who?" Kara asked as the three of them sighed and shook their head. "Can um...we go home?"
"You bet." Alex smiled and hugged her sister.
"Hey Sawyer?" Lena handed Maggie the phone and with it a sticky note. The detective took the device and read the note.
"Well?" Danvers wanted to know what it said and didn't like the look her fiance had on her face.
"Paid in full. This makes up for the one you lost at that spa resort. Some things aren't meant to be waterproof." Lena told the agent.
"What's not waterproof?" Kara wondered. Lena covered the blonde's eyes and watched the glare from the agent to the detective. "Phones aren't waterproof?"
"Your sister." Lena told Alex.
"Your girlfriend." Danvers retorted.
"I'm hungry! Can we do chinese?" All three facepalmed at that.
"Help Little Danvers, ten cents a day.." Maggie handed the phone to Alex, who quickly called J'onn.
"J'onn? I need a ride home. ALL of us do…"
The moment all four women were brought into the med bay, Lucy lost her shit. She wasn't the only one and soon enough, Susan was right there with her. Then, the prisoner was escorted in and that's when the major really lost it.
"Hold the bitch up." She snarled, a gloved fist ready.
"Yes Ma'am." Both agents nodded and kept the woman locked in place.
"Pssst?" Kalyste looked up, just as Lucy cold-cocked the bitch. "THAT'S for Danvers. Pick her back up." The agents smiled and did so. The moment she was up, Lucy punched her again. "THAT'S FOR ME!" Lucy removed her glove and all other agents, including Alex, unwrapping her wrapped hand. With the covering gone, she dropped the brass knuckles, that were wrapped in a kryptonite netting, at her feet. "Don't...MESS...with a Lane." She looked back up at the agents, who had matching smiles. "Get this garbage out of my sight."
"With pleasure." Once the prisoner was literally dragged off, Lucy turned to a bunch of clapping agents. "Yeah yeah." It wasn't just agents clapping.
"Now that was better than Christmas. Don't tell Little Danvers I said that." Maggie said.
"How is she?"
"Debatable." Lena explained, as Alex fist bumped her pal. "Whatever Kate came up with.."
"Kate?" Lane was confused, but one disgusted expression on two out of three faces, warranted a raised eyebrow.
"Ohhhhhh yeah! Maggie's ex." Danvers answered.
"That kissed you." Lena shared and Lucy glared.
"That saw my sister in her birthday suit." Alex grumbled.
"...mentioning how Kara has no tattoos." Maggie added.
"I already don't like her."
"She saved Kara though." Lena was grateful and would give Kate that.
"Explain." Lucy demanded, as they all went to check on their fully clothed Super. The moment they were in the same room, where Amelia was going over her vitals, the blonde had been gripping the black coat for dear life.
"Needles." Kara's eyes showed her fears of them, right off the bat.
"How are you feeling Kar?" Lucy walked over and side hugged her best friend.
"Needles." She pleaded with shivering cerulean and sky blue hues.
"I'm sorry about that." The major asked one of the lingering agents for a stool and she sat down beside the kryptonian. "How is she?"
"Rather dehydrated. I will need to keep an IV going and pump fluids in her. At least she is eating." Hamilton handed Danvers her sister's chart. "I want to keep her here, hell ALL of you here..for observation. Especially you. Your tests aren't good and I'm pretty sure withdrawals are gonna hit you agent." Alex sighed and nodded.
"Quarantine me if you need to Amelia. I'd rather not risk it."
"I'm not going anywhere either." Lena spoke with pure conviction as she took up another stool beside the woman she loved and slipped one of her hands in Kara's.
"Me neither." Maggie concluded and took a stand behind her little sister.
"I figured." Lucy rolled her eyes and waved them off. "I'm gonna go help with paperwork that you owe me Danvers." Alex huffed, dropping her head forward.
"I expect you three to alert me of any changes." Hamilton tossed the agent a pager. "The green button on the side will notify me immediately."
"Got it doc." Maggie guaranteed the woman who left the four of them alone. "Well Little Danvers...what you wanna do?"
"Can I have a few minutes with her guys?" Lena asked and both women nodded. She waited until the couple was out of the room and turned to face the woman who had turned her life around. The CEO took both of Kara's hands in her own and just smiled up at the beautiful kryptonian. How just one visit, just one look in the most stunning set of blues, had changed everything for her. "Darling...Kara.."
'Can I tell you something, just between you and me?
When I hear your voice I KNOW I'm finally free.
EVERY single word is perfect as it can be
And I need you here with me.
When you lift me up, I know that I'll never fall
I can speak to you by SAYING nothing at all.
EVERY single time, I find it harder to breathe
'Cause I need you here with me..'
Lena released one of Kara's hands and reached up to tenderly touch the blonde's cheek. "You believed in me, since day one. You trusted me to be what you see me as. You walked into my office with that dorky Kansas boy...Superman." Kara's eyes widened, but then relaxed. "You saved me that day and saved me everyday after that. Even when everyone else saw me as just another Luthor...you saw me for me." The CEO slid her fingers through the sunshine blonde strands of her hero, her everything. She scooted closer, until their faces were inches apart. "I love you Kara Danvers, Kara Zor-El."
"Yeah?" Kara asked, her smile getting bigger. Lena nodded. "I love you Lena."
"Yeah?" Lena felt like she was on cloud nine.
"Yes." She took the leap and pulled the CEO in closer, cupped her face with both hands and lunged in to kiss her. Everything stopped for them and their whole world became each other. Neither were aware of the ones that stood in the doorway and watched the two of them embrace in a way that both of them knew...far too well.
"Their happy Danvers." Maggie pulled Alex away from the two women making out like a couple of teenagers.
"Yes they are." The agent grumbled and pulled out her wallet, handing over another benjamin.
"Keep it up Danvers and I'll have my own bar." Alex slapped her fiance on the arm. "Just sayin'."
"You know.." She looked over and noticed the huge grin on the detective's face. "I'm gonna strip that saying of yours, from your vocabulary." Sawyer just laughed.
"I wish you luck on that Ally." The engaged duo walked past Vasquez and Lane, neither aware of the cash handed to Susan by Lucy. Some things, you JUST shouldn't bet on..
She had thought this was a good idea. She had thought wrong. The CEO had nine degrees and seven defense courses under her belts. Still...Danvers was kicking her ass. Lena sighed on her back and flicked her eyes to the side, following the circle the agent was walking around her.
"Get up Luthor." She grumbled and leaped to her bare feet. This was a Tuesday and Thursday routine now. Lena began to believe that it was just double ass whooping days. "C'mon." Alex would push her, teach her the way she taught Kara too. Granted..Lena was human. "Allllll that smarts. All bark and zero bite." That did it..
Lena ran at the agent and Alex had been counting on that mistake. What she didn't count on, was the woman to master the punches and kicks she had taught her two weeks ago. "Better. Shit!" Alex had blocked two side swipes, but was knocked off balance when Lena spun backwards and landed a good kick to her left side. Danvers had played this game before and quickly righted herself to counter the last move.
Both women began to counter each other's attacks and block every strike. The detective and Super watched from above, along with several agents. Money was being passed back and forth and some actually believed that Alex 'badass' Danvers would lose to Lena. The ones that had placed that bet, ended up broke.
"Even I know better than to bet against Danvers."
"Lena is getting better though. Still not signing her up for the DEO." Lucy commented. She glanced over at Kara and noticed the kryptonian's trembling jaw. Was she STILL having cravings?
"That's enough for today Alex." Lena knew defeat when she felt it..all over her rather sore body. The agent held out a hand out to her and she took it, being pulled to her feet. "Quit kicking me..SO HARD in my left butt cheek Danvers."
"I'll try. Take the shower first." Alex tossed her friend the private bathroom key. "Kaaaara...get your ass down here. YOUR turn."
"Crap." Kara slumped against the observation deck glass. "I'm doomed." She headed down to the training room, until Alex motioned her to that training room. The sisters left the curious gazes and headed to their private sparring room.
"Let Little Luthor know I'll be back in a while, would ya Suz?" Maggie requested.
"No prob detective." Vasquez smiled. "Want me to place bet for ya?" Sawyer snickered.
"Danvers...always." She smirked and walked off. Maggie slipped down to the garage, waving to the security guard at the front that checked on everyone's credentials for safety measures. Once out of sight, she passed the vehicles and made her way to her gorgeous black baby. "Dammit." The detective muttered and opened up the side compartment by the seat. She cursed again and pulled out the tiny vial. Sawyer twisted the black lid off and brought it to her lips, knowing what rush it would bring. Without a second thought, she drank it down and already could feel the concoction stirring up the energies in her body. Maggie's brown eyes slipped into shades of copper, smiling and welcoming what it did to her. 'Goooood girl. Let it burn away that struggle my beautiful Sawyer.' The voice purred in her mind and she smiled and surrendered to Kalyste's pull.
A part of her had known that when the half daemvyr-kryptonian had taken Luthor and her, she had enticed that darker side in her. Maggie could still feel the intimate bite from her on the inside of her left thigh, uncaring at what she had given her to drink while she lay there partially conscious. It didn't matter anymore and she didn't want to fight what a strike of rich wanton fire Kalyste had given her. She would wait as patiently as she could, to free her from her cage below the DEO. Patience Sawyer...patience..
Lena finished up her shower and reminded herself to thank Alex for the privacy later, even though the agent had royally wiped the floor with her during their sparring workout. Despite how sore her ass really was, she was grateful for the training. The CEO wanted to be prepared for anything else that came her way and needed to make sure her friend Sam wasn't overloaded with L-Corp's business tasks. Lena had faith in Arias, even though she had bitten off more than she could chew with the ins and outs of CATCO.
Once she was dried off and back into more business attire, that she had hung in her locker, the Luthor grabbed her phone to make her first call. She sat down on the bench and waited for her friend to pick up.
"Hey Sam."
"Lena! Oh thank god..remind me to kick your ass later." Already the words had Lena grumbling.
"Please..don't bring up anything regarding that."
"Why? What puddle did your high class ass land in this time?"
"I'll tell Ruby about your imported chocolate stash I gave you a subscription for from Belgium."
"Fine fine fine. You play dirty Kieran."
"Ha ha. How are you fairing over there?"
"I wanna pull my hair out but thank you for leaving Jess with me. She really knows her stuff. Can I promote her?"
"Tell her she gets double the salary I give her now. She actually has two degrees in business and economics, so she can crunch numbers really well. Tell her to find a replacement at the desk though. There is an empty spacious office next to yours. I'll order you both espresso machines and a keurig for your house. Make sure you get a list for your daughter's favorites too. I'll email you a copy of the different things that are offered for both your personal and professional one. Let Jess know I'll email the same."
"I love you, you know that?"
"Just keeping my L-Corp gurus satisfied. Hey listen...there is a set of files across from you in the left hand cabinet. Behind the second folder is a small manila envelope. Can you have Jess bring them over to CATCO for me later? I'll be in my office there around three."
"As long as I can supply you dinner."
"You might make my girlfriend jealous."
"Did you finally strike the nerve to elicit your undivided physical attention on a certain blonde with a set of stunning blue eyes?" Lena smiled.
"Yes." She could hear Samantha whistling and slightly glared into the phone. "Mine."
"Blondes aren't my thing really. Now this damn fine FBI chick in all black I met at the unveiling...what I wouldn't give to unwrap THAT package."
"That beautiful woman has a fiance."
"Dammit. There goes my bi fantasies."
"You could always see if Jess wants to test out the quality of your office desk." The CEO smirked devilishly.
"Is she bi? Good to know. Is she taken?"
"Nope." Lena punctuated with a pop of the p.
"She is far too professional for me to clear the desk for. Dinner first maybe. Listen, can I send over a couple of emails to ya? Some shit is WAY over my area of expertise."
"I can do that. Talk to you later Sam. Call me if you need anything and say hi to Ruby for me."
"Catch ya later Lee." The call ended and Lena just shook her head laughing.
"What to do with that woman. Better check to see how my girlfriend is doing from Agent Danvers lessons.."
"Still...leaving yourself open Kar." Alex bounced from one foot to the other and back, waiting for her sister to adjust her own stance. "Now..come at me."
Lucy continued to enjoy a little snack and coffee, grateful that Danvers had given her the opportunity to observe their sparring match.
"Yes? I'll be down there in a few. I'm bringing a friend." She informed the agent in the prison block, just as a knock was heard at the door. Lucy whistled to Alex, who left Kara on her stomach on the floor. "I'm gonna borrow Luthor for a little while alright?"
"Fine by me." Alex entered her codes to let her friend out. "I'll be here." She watched Lucy step out and shut the door behind her. "Uh uh. Feet." She smirked as Kara groaned and got up.
Lucy noticed Lena heading over and informed her what was going on. The fancy dressed CEO looked ready to go business engagement.
"I'd ask if you had a hot date, but your girlfriend is learning the hard way with the older Danvers."
"I'm ready to go when you are. My rear still hurts." Lucy chuckled at that. She mentioned a few tips and rules on their way to the central cell block underground in the DEO. An agent met them at the door, informing the major where the woman had been taken. Lane nodded to the man and they headed a different direction, to an interrogation room.
"Welllllll well. Two little birdies to play with." Lucy slid in front of Lena immediately. "What can I do for you ladies today?" The blonde asked, curious as to why she was brought out of her confinement, studying the emeralds of the one kept hidden from her view. She shifted her head to the side, silver blue eyes locking onto the one she recognized well, from articles by a certain reporter. "You wouldn't have brought me here if there wasn't a catch twenty-two."
"I'm Co Direction Lucy Lane. I'm sure you know who I'm keeping from you."
"Hmm hmmmm...cute. I've got two cuffs on me that keep me from demonstrating my gifts. Now...why..am..I..here."
"I heard you had a run in with a bitch that bit you." Lucy noticed the burning fury and flicked her gaze down to two clenched fists. "How did it happen."
"Some doctor showed up in my cage to check on me. She explained she was a nurse and told me not to fire off my special skills at her. The moment she touched me.."
"You couldn't think, couldn't fight." Lena finished for her and stepped around Lucy. "What happened..please."
"Her bare hand touched my head and it was as if she was sucking the power I have from me. I barely remembering her sickening laughter...purring bitch. The heat from her bite, it hurt at first. Then everything went blank. Next thing I know, guards are checking up on me and my cuffs were placed back on. I hadn't even realized they were off. I used to believe that the power of fear could cripple someone..annihilate one's spirit...till her."
"I need to know about your gift Gayle." Lena sat down in the chair across from the blonde's bunk. "Please." Silver blues slid up to the other woman, then back to the Luthor.
"Okay." She had been called her actual name, even though she enjoyed the powerful name of Psi. This woman was just what the Danvers reporter had said. Both of them were judged on a few things. She had hoped that she might score an audience with the CATCO blondie.
Lucy stood at the door and listened to everything the meta human said. Not once did Psi fire off a smart ass remark. She looked pissed at someone playing with her fire, eager for revenge if she could get it. Lane could count on that later, if it came to that. The more info...the better..
