Time suddenly stood still. Dharea and Kara had flown back with information, only to see Alex unconconscious on one of the beds in Lena's medical wing. Amelia had an EEG headset on the Director's head, several electrode sensors were all over her chest, and arms and there was a blood pressure cuff on her left arm. Maggie was asking all sorts of questions and the doctor understood her concerns and even more so her fears. When asked where Lucy was, two dim expressions had the kryptonian daemvyr rushing out of the room.
Kara wasn't sure what had happened. Maggie was explaining what she witnessed and how Alex's hands had touched Lucy's wrists and that's when she had suddenly passed out. Sawyer reluctantly stepped away, still keeping an eye on her fiance who occupied yet another medical bed.
"She.." The detective did her best to compose herself, but her hands were absolutely shaking with strife. "I don't know what happened Little Danvers. Lucy is scared shitless she caused this and we both know it wasn't her doing. Danvers' eyes.." The kryptonian slightly tilted her head.
"What do you mean 'her eyes' Maggie?" Their own gazes locked.
"Her eyes that are their beautiful brown and powerful merlot..they became..grey." Kara's orbs shivered. "I pulled back her eyelids and they were brown but, they had gone grey before she dropped. Fuck, it scared me. Scared me bad."
"We got back here as quick as we could." Kara looked over at Amelia. "What can I do?"
"We will monitor her vitals and brainwaves. I'm looking for irregular activities, something more definitive to work with. I will do everything I can Kara."
"I don't understand. How.." They all heard footsteps and saw Kalyste with Lane at her side. The major had the sword strapped to her back again, her wrist bore the bracelet from Dharea and there was a strange amulet around her neck on a braided rope. "Luce?"
"I'm so sorry guys. I...I don't know what.."
"My brother. Lucy was explaining there was something that was used when you were attacked by the parasite and forced into a dream-like state. Do you still have it?"
"The what?" Lena flicked her gaze to each of them, confused by what was being discussed.
"Any of that is at the DEO." Kara said sighing.
"Got this covered." Lucy stepped away after Susan handed Lane her phone, making a call to the Director of the organization. "Yo Johnny! I need your mercy headgear. Yeah, Pronto. Thanks."
"She's clear. We are keeping a close eye on her though. J'onn is gonna kill her for calling him that. I see that doom in her future." Vasquez informed them, doing her best to assure the group and herself, using a slight humor to try to ease the situation.
"J'onn is on his way. We will have the equipment shortly." Lucy explained, scooting a stool over to her friend's bed. Maggie noticed the major at her side. "I'm sorry Maggie."
"Not your doing Little Lane." The woman glared and Lena smirked. The happier expression fell, with worry taking its place again. The numbers looked absolutely normal. No indication of disturbances in brain activity. She would ask questions about the products on route later. All focus needed to stay on helping Alex..
"Wha the fu.." Alex nearly growled out, lifting herself off the ground that she now realized was a familiar balcony. "Shit." Once on her feet, first thing she noticed was the blood in the full moon and instantly something about it felt terrifying. This was something she didn't usually express. Danvers was the badass of the DEO and Lena's Director for crying out loud. She shouldn't be scared. Alex found herself backing away from the half wall and railing she once had slipped her hands upon. Her entire frame shook with each reversed step, until her back hit something solid and the most sinister of chuckles had that uneasy feeling cascading down her spine.
Alex jumped forward and spun around, arms up in front of her and fists clenched. She shifted one foot forward in her full blown fighter's stance. The amber waves of pure untamed flames emulating from his burning hues. His eyes were fixed on her shivering chestnut browns and once again she stepped back. Every ounce of his posture screamed confidence and power. That dark power was far beyond what Kalyste's was, scaring the shit out of her even more. Then he spoke and once again, his voice was like pure unbridled liquid velvet.
"You've returned." He smiled, keeping his gaze fixed on hers, sliding a tongue along the fangs in his mouth, with lips slightly open so she could see them. Sure enough, her eyes darted down and caught the act so purposely orchestrated. Her hues flicked up quickly, but his sinister smile spoke volumes of his calculated capture of her. "Thirsty?"
She couldn't help but swallow the lump in her rather dry throat, knowing he heard her heavy gulp. Alex shook her head and snarled.
"Go fuck yourself." The agent said sternly with pure disgust dripping from all three angry words. Instead of the nervousness she hoped to create, he laughed at her ploy and brought on his own.
"Do you know, why you're here...again?" Alex couldn't help the tremble that rippled through her entire being. "She took you without your permission. Didn't she?"
"She saved me and my sister. You..nearly..KILLED HER!"
"Did I?" Dante stepped to the right and watched the agent's own movements shift. He intended to find a way to stalk his prey. She was a skilled fighter though and he knew this wouldn't be so easy the second time around. "Wasn't it you who shot and stabbed your dear little sister? Your hands. Your..very..hands." He knew he had rattled her heavily and felt her mind slipping back to that dismal place. "You.." He took a step forward and this time she didn't back away. "..lifted it.."
He took another step forward and slowly her fists loosened, her hands lowered. "..aimed.." Danted was so close. "..firing..twice. One..then two." Her arms dropped and this time she backed up. He knew she didn't have much room left, the balcony rail so much closer than she probably realized. "That knife.." He could see the fight in her eyes ebbing away little by little. "..how good it felt. You had all the power. You..were..free." There it was. Every ounce of resistance, diminished.
"Free." The chestnuts of her hues, slipped into darkening merlot tempered in smoked ambers. "Free." Alex felt his warm hand slide along the side of her face. His other hand tilted her chin up when he moved closer to her. 'ALEXANDRA! ALEXANDRA WAI AOE! EL MAYARAH!" She gasped, grabbing the rail and flinging her body up and over it, plunging towards the ground below.
"FOOL!" Dante growled when her hand shot up and a middle finger presented itself. Then a blur of red and blue took her away. "Dammit.."
Alex felt the safe warmth of her sister, as she was cradled against her chest and she shut her eyes surrendering to the call of slumber. 'Voi..'
"Voi Wai Aoe. Safe big sis.." Alex knew...safe..
"Thank you. Ohhhhh thank you." Maggie was holding her love's hand, feeling a slight twitch in it and finally a firm enough squeeze. "Ally?" Lucy removed the band from her friend's head.
"Ugghhh.." Alex opened up her eyes, her vision blurry at first until the soft glow of calmer lamps eased her worries almost immediately. She blinked, turning her head and met those beautiful chocolate hues belonging to her fiance. "Mags." Maggie lunged forward on the stool and dropped her head onto Alex's stomach. "Mags?" She could feel the detective shaking and from the sobs, her heart ached for giving her such a scare. Danvers lifted her gaze some and saw Kalyste standing there, hands on her sister's temples noticing no headset on her at all. 'You sent her into my..' 'I did. You needed her more than you needed me. You are stronger than you realize Alexandra. Remember that.' Alex nodded as a smile slid across her lips. She mouthed thank you and Dharea nodded. Kara's head was back though and when the kryptonian daemvyr knew that the warrior was safe, she removed her hands and caught the hero before she could collapse to the ground.
"She's safe. It takes more energy than usual in these abilities I have. Your sister isn't use to that kind of power manifested through her. She's safe." Kalyste slipped her arms under the blonde and carried her over to part of the couch. Danvers then realized where they were.
"You had us worried lady." Lucy stepped closer with Susan and Amelia at her sides. "Don't pull that shit again Danvers." 'Your heart stopped twice Alex.' Lane removed her hand from the agent's arm. "Once you feel up to it, we are gonna start dinner."
"Guys?" She shakily pointed in a certain direction, warranting the most gruesome of growls to emulate from Kalyste's throat. Dharea slid in front of Alex and Lucy grabbed their unconscious hero with Susan's help. Lena reached behind her and tossed one of the two guns at Maggie. Both women aimed instantly. Despite her state, the agent had jumped to her feet standing beside the kryptonian daemvyr.
"Now sister..."
"DON'T call me that." Another growl left her throat and this time it was fueled by the fires of rage that burned within her gaze more and more with each passing moment.
"So this is that asshole." Susan commented.
"Careful little pussy cat." One quick pull of a trigger and Dante was forced backwards, howling from the punch of the bullet that struck him. "Human BITCH!" Another hit him, this time in one of his knee caps. Instantly, he was forced to his other one whimpering a howl like a kicked dog from steel-toe boots.
"Oh, WE humans..have..GREAT aim." Sawyer smirked, pulling back the slide and releasing it to load the next round. "Don't we?" They heard the Luthor's own gun go off and this time the bastard screamed. "Ohhhh damn."
"Shucks." Lena tapped her earpiece twice and the digital shades shifted from green to clear. "I only hit one nut."
"I'll take care of that other one for ya Little Luthor." Maggie tapped her own piece and green shades appeared over her eyes. "Kiss that boyhood goodbye." She shot directly where the x-ray vision gave her perfect sight to. The monster dropped onto his back with hands over his crotch. "Ohhhh look guys!"
"Target practice." Susan and Lucy spoke, holding semi-auto rattler rifles. Both women fired at his shoulders and with the sound of two loud cracks knew the damage they had done.
"Give me it." Alex growled, her fangs on full display to the rest of them. Merlot shades painted the fires of her now glowing orbs. Lena motioned to Lucy, as she took out what was in the case and handed Danvers her new favorite gun. "Eat my Zenith-5K motherfucker." One quick swipe of the fully loaded thirty round magazine, one slam into the well of the grip, one slide back with the switch flipped back and a royally pissed off newly made 'force to be reckoned with' had Danvers walking right up to the bastard. "Uhvhrra Bem Voiehd." 'Cover my sister's ears and close your's off Kalyste.'
They all threw hands up and covered their own as Alex 'badass' Danvers unleashed fire and fury and shot off all thirty rounds in the magazine. No matter how loud it got, it was one hundred percent worth it.
"Dare I ask?" Lucy was curious and Maggie gave it a go.
"You told him to eat your lead?"
"Chew on this." Kara spoke softly translating, but loud enough for them to hear, now that their ears weren't ringing from the 'Assault of Alex'.
"Holy.." The shoulders had been shot to high hell, two limbs a couple of feet from where they had once been attached. Both kneecaps were gone, holes residing in place of what had been there before. Most if not all of his face had been blown off, teeth scattering the floor. There were holes in the boot covered feet. Broken ribs were sticking out of impenetrable skin. Through and through shots where his male parts once had attended. Two precise shots and the spinal cord at the neck had been fractured, severing it from what was left of Dante's head. "Damn babe." Sawyer had never been so grateful, relieved and turned on all at the same time. 'Fuck me three times and go for a full house Danvers.' The agent smirked, lifting the gun and blew the smoke away from the muzzle.
"I want a dozen of these if you don't mind Boss." Alex told Lena who smiled and nodded.
"With pleasure." They both noticed the blonde's eyes locked on the motionless body. "Darling?"
"Kar.." Alex set the gun down on the counter and walked up to her sister. She flung her arms around the trembling kryptonian, knowing just how scared she was. "It's okay Kar. It's okay." She held her as Kara began to wail from everything that had been bottled up. Her entire frame shook so badly with how hard she was sobbing. 'Tell me we can take all this away from her Dharea. She can't have this hell in her head Kalyste.' Alex carefully pulled the hero away from the others and into the other room. They needed some Danvers sister time anyway.
"Good thing we used your holographic template Little Luthor." Maggie chuckled.
"Came in handy. Besides..didn't wanna have to clean up the garbage anyway." Lena went to the wall and opened a panel. "Might wanna step back." Lucy quirked up a brow.
"Why?" Dharea yanked her back and when everyone was clear, Lena turned the dial where five torches shot out from the ceiling and began to burn away the body. Lane's jaw dropped.
"Remind me to never fuck with her." Lena's grin got bigger, as she turned the dial back. "Is that.."
"It's him." 'He had Roulette working for him. He knows which moon she's on. He has a birthmark that no shifter can mimic. Lena burned it away.' Dharea informed Alex, who was tending to a calmer Kara in her arms.
"How can she not smell that.." Usually the golden retriever aka Little Danvers could pick up a whiff of fresh baked bread across two continents.
"Too much energy and power to go into Alexandra's mind. It drained her batteries the way a solar flare would." Kalyste explained.
She should have known, even as the others slumbered peacefully and without turmoil, that the hero would awaken to watch over the rest of them. Alex made her way over to the blonde guardian, who kept a close eye on things from the second story half wall. Now standing beside Kara, the agent set a gentle and comforting hand over her back to softly run it up and down her spine. She understood now, the troubles and trials that the kryptonian bore everyday for just being who she was and is still.
"Listening to my heartbeat Lexy?" Kara spoke softly and low so as not to wake anyone. She didn't need to turn her head to know that's exactly what Alex was doing. "Have you calmed your cravings?" The hand along her back stilled suddenly. "How bad sis.." 'Bad enough that I yearn to slide my fingers through your long mane, pull your head back and roll my tongue along your beautiful throat. Bad enough that I want to drag my fangs up and down your lovely neck until you are shaking and begging me to bite you.'
Alex was unaware of the merlot swirling in and taking over the chestnut shades in her eyes. She easily heard the gulp and watched the roll down the front of Kara's throat. She couldn't help it, sliding her hand up and doing exactly as she spoke of in the hero's mind. Her fingers threaded into long blonde strands, twisting some around each digit and lightly pulling down. The kryptonian's head came back and Alex leaned in, her other hand slid from where it rested on the wall to around Kara's waist. She drug her slight nails across tightening abs.
"Want me to..don't you? Khap Ehch Osh Lizrhom." Alex purred in her ear. 'I thirst..for..more.' "Would you..Chad to me? I want to...Pil Rrip." '..take you. Would you give to me?' "Tell me. Stop me." She drug her tongue up a rather visible vein that had showed itself by her tempting offer. "Can't..stop. Stop me."
Kara knew her eyes had slipped back with baited breath and shivers up and down her spine. The truth was, she didn't want to stop Alex. The temptation ran both ways. She should be fighting this and telling her no. She should push away and remove herself from the darkening situation. Instead, she leaned into it.
"I..don't want to..stop you.." She practically moaned her purr. That alone, sealed her fate. She felt the hot tongue drag down and away from her neck to the spot between the collar and shoulder. "Do it Lexy.." Kara was done. She was so done with it all. "Mark me." She heard the slight crack of her sister's jaw and she welcomed it, even though it should be..wrong. 'I give Lexy. I'm your person...yours.' She sent a prayer to Krypton's deity, to protect Lena from whatever transpired and prayed yet again that she would understand.
"Say it." A slight brush of hot lips against her ear and once again Kara was shivering for her. Alex knew then, knew that she wanted this. Her own ego and hunger demanded more. 'Say it.'
"Niv Khap. Mark me..as..your..yours..ohhh.." She barely got the last word out and felt two sharp strikes of burning preamble and knew fangs had pierced the spot Alex had kissed. If her eyes could roll any further back, they'd be sunk into wanton fires. Kara hadn't known when she had been turned around, feeling the half wall against her lower back. She didn't care either. The minute Alex's fangs pressed down and under her skin, torrent fires engulfed her mind and body. She welcomed it, craved it as much as the agent craved her.
"Good girls." Kalyste whispered her rumbled purr, sultry and with promise. She scraped her nails down the side of the kryptonian's torso with her other set of nails scraping along Danvers' spine. Dharea let her orbs elicit their rich purple haze and lunged in piercing Kara in the same spot Alex had on the opposite side. The moaning wrecked kitten between them, was quickly silenced by a hand that covered her mouth to avoid waking the others. 'Elsewhere.' Both women whispered with just as much promise of pure seduction to the shaking blonde, panting more.
Kalyste held onto both of them and flew the duo to an area unbeknownst to others, that the CEO had built but had not focused on. She had..
"Can't..fight..need it.." Both women moaned and oh how the kryptonian daemvyr answered that calling. One pure soldier. One fallen angel. Two..for the price of one..crisp..hunter's moon..
A smile slid over her lips, squeezing the hand that rested on the her stomach. Maggie put her head back some and felt her fiance snuggled up at her back. She smirked.
"Being the big spoon this morning Danvers?" Alex chuckled and nuzzled the side of the detective's face. "Is it morning?"
"About..six thirty." Sawyer groaned and pushed her face into the pillow her head had been occupying. "No coffee?"
"Not yet." She grumbled. Danvers just scooted closer and pulled the blanket over them. She preferred to cuddle with her love as much as possible. Then she was curious who would moan louder, Kara..or..Lena. Curiosity got the better of her, licking her lips still tasting the blend of two essences along her tongue. She was grateful that her soulmate in her arms couldn't hear what she was able to now. Alex tried not to let her mouth water when the wicked tantric shuttered moan spilt from Lena Luthor's lips.
Kalyste was indeed aware that Danvers not only heard but felt every place she struck fangs into while two fingers were wonderfully lathered by two, just like before. Dharea loved how easily these beautiful women let themselves be carried away by the tides of salacious urgency to sate their own needs, she had no qualms about assisting with.
Lena's body bucked up arching into one's thirst to drive her tongue deeper with nails raking along her chest and fangs buried on the side of one breast. She shivered in torrent addiction to the lust and love weaving into one another. Her sweet angel dove deeper inside with sinful intention. How she had denied this opportunity before, was absolutely fruitless. Two scores and all she had to do was ace Kalyste's test. Kieran obviously passed with the naughtiest of colors, or should she say covers. If there were any before, they ceased to exist now.
Kara had never felt such unbridled desperation to quench her thirst for her lover, for passion and pleasures far beyond devilish. This was new to her and oh she'd been missing out for far too long. No longer. A few quick tips and tricks and she was playing, who she had wanted since the first moment she met her, the sweetest music through each heavy breathed moan and plea for more. Feeling the warmth and pooling of the one she chose to be her partner until Rao himself called her into his light, made her yearn to ask, if not beg, if Lena's life span could be extended to match her own.
Two swift plunges between fangs and fingertips and both women had been sent over the edge and into the long awaited and rewarded release they so desperately had needed. Kalyste removed both and let the kittens rest. She stood up and left them to their dreams in Lena's master bedroom. Dharea quietly walked down the hall and heard another heavy breath, a gasp then an attempted silence to the moan that wished to escape. One swift move and the major's eyes widened.
"It's alright Lucinda.." Lucy felt a hand slide down her arm, to where her own hand had been occupied inside of her pants and undergarments. The minute fingers pushed down on her knuckles Lane's back arched against the wall, unable to stop from plunging the two fingers she had inside before, back through soaked folds. "Give into that urge." Dharea brought her lips over the now exposed throat. 'I will not bite you beautiful Lucinda. I shall drive you into the ecstasy you have been denied by men and your one female acquaintance. Let me help your long overdue orgasm sweet one..'
The major had never been so unbelievably turned on in her whole life. If this was what it's like in the arms, in the hands of a kryptonian..fuck yes..
With the first rise of the sun, two stood side by side to admire Sol's capacities to refuel their cells and bring strength to protect those that slept peacefully for once. Charged by the solar absorption into her body, the agent knew it was time for answers.
"Ask."
"Zhgehv Chaiahm." Alex needed to understand why Dharea had spoken the term World Killer. For some reason, this terrified the kryptonian daemvyr and she needed to know why.
"Fire and fury. Blood and brutality. They will come, risen within vessels here on this planet. It is time, you learn the truth. I am from a different world." Alex's head slapped to the side and looked at her maker's face. Then Kalyste turned her own head and met the shivering darker chestnut hues of the agent. "I grew up on this one then left Lunarin for an opportunity to escape the treachery and violence. Somehow, I woke up on another Earth. My choices to surrender to the darkness, I feel within you, were savage. So I found a way, to come to this one. I have planted my feet on this planet, calling it my home."
Alex had never expected this woman to have come from another Earth. She remembered what her sister had told her of the other dimensions and her time with Flash, Arrow and the Legends. To find out Kalyste had came from..
"What.." She knew the ramifications of meddling with future events, how it could throw off the balance and order of things. Contemplating her next question, she chose the safest route to venture. "More than one?" Danvers swallowed the lump in her throat when her companion and teacher nodded. "How...how many."
"Only one I can speak of." Dharea grabbed Alex's hand and squeezed it tightly. "Only one."
"Dharea.." Their eyes locked and for once there wasn't any purple in Kalyste's. It spoke volumes to the fear in the hues she studied. "Who." The woman's throat rolled and Alex knew how serious this was.
"They call her Reign. She will be the first to show herself. Alex.." The agent had always been called by her full first name. Who was this person? "She will not be kind. She will bring death to many. The righteous will be cast in the fires of sin. Those that had rose to power will be struck down. Angels will fall. She..will fall." Alex watched the direction to where Dharea's eyes turned to. The coldest of shivers ran down her spine. She suddenly needed to sit before her knees buckled.
Kalyste felt the courses flood her newly made, quick to help the warrior steady and get off her feet. "Here." They chose to both take a seat, grateful for Lena's patio furniture even on the veranda. Once Alex got settled, she leaned forward and swallowed down what she intended to ask. Dharea beat her to it. "I can't tell you that."
"I didn't ask." She spoke calmly but with a hint of stern. "Dharea..will she live?"
"With help."
"From who?" Alex sighed, shaking her head. "Let's go about this a different way. Who..what is Reign..wait.." 'Was I...human when..'
"Yes. Reign is the worst of the ones known as World Killers. She possesses a host, a certain host on Earth. I can't tell you who, for fear of what it could cause. I don't know all of it and would rather not risk things worsening by my actions. Yes. You were human." Kalyste listened to the war waging on in Danvers' head. She had changed things to save Kara. She had changed things to save them both.
"Are they kryptonian?"
"Partially. One is. That monster is worse than the evils of this planet. Worse than any others I have seen, including that fuck of a half-assed sibling you took care of for me."
"Partially? That doesn't make any sense. So the one here, she's not fully kryptonian?" Dharea shook her head. "She's..human." Alex suddenly stood up and walked away, shaking her head. She did her best not to cry. She had read the kryptonian daemvyr's mind. It was then, Kalyste cursed in several tongues, knowing what the agent had done. "Kids. I destroy everything, all for...for.."
"Alex.." She had royally fucked things up by her slip up. She stood, walking over to her made and that's when she felt the surge of power inside of Danvers. "No...fight it."
Alex felt as if her own body was revolting against her mind. She couldn't stop the glow that emulated through her normal brown eyes, laced in the darkest of merlot. Unable to stop the animalistic growl that erupted from her throat, she felt as if her own humanity was being devoured to leave the powerful creature in its place. "Alexandra! FIGHT IT!"
"No." She had never felt so good in her life. The power that fueled every drop of blood within her body, had her craving what it gave her. Alex was stronger than Supergirl now. Finally.
"ALEXAN.." She grabbed Kalyste by the throat, lifted her then slammed her down onto the veranda balcony. The minute Dharea was seeing stars she shouldn't, she felt a powerful strike on her shoulder warranting the hottest of tempting fires through her body. Her back arched as she writhed moaning for the one feeding on her. It was as if Alex was the kryptonian daemvyr and not her, eliciting both yearn and fear that collided with one another. 'K...a..' Kalyste couldn't reach out, knowing exactly why she was unable to communicate that way. 'They and YOU are mine.'
The power tasted too good and she couldn't get enough of it. Alex drank her fill of both Dharea's life force and outworldly power, savoring each drop with burning orbs. When she knew there was no more that Kalyste could give her at the moment, she let her drop to the ground she had levitated off of in pure bloodlust to have..more. Blood dripped from her lips and she licked them to catch what had escaped.
"Mine. Your little trick to send my sister in to save me, drained more than you thought." Alex purred and slipped Dharea's crystal out from under her vest. She knew this had been the little trinket that Kalyste had used at first to trap the kryptonian into her hold. Now...it..was..hers. "Thank you Kalyste. Your lessons in Lunarin bindings proved useful." She slowly floated down and once before her maker, she knelt down and took a small woven rope from her pocket. With perfected skill, she wrapped it around one of Dharea's ankles. "Hungry...sooo...need more.."
Alex looked up at the sky and hissed at the brightness it held. She walked away and back to the slumbering prey residing inside, where they believed they were safe. For the price to be strong enough to protect them all, it only required one..simple..surrender. Now Alexandra held all the cards, giving into the bloodlust and lust for everything and more. She would have it. Unlimited and unbridled power came to her, called to her. She had become...Euphoric Darkness..
