Kara spent Valentines day on her own, a long month had gone by. January felt like it had lasted for centuries, but here she was in her apartment, sat on her own. Pot stickers littered the table, but her usual appetite had gone. The Super no longer had motivation, not only that but she hadn't tried for Nia, she hadn't gone to Lena grovelling, she just left it. Kara hadn't seen Nia since her birth and despite it eating away at her, it wasn't consuming her all that much.

The blonde undid her two top buttons on her shirt before grabbing the bottle of wine from the table and pouring her second glass. As she sat back, she stared across the room. There was no one here, just her. "Valentines day." She snorted, "Just another marketing trick to make money out of people." She then took a sip from her wine and stared at her phone on the table.

Winn, Alex and Lena hadn't spoken to Kara in such a long time, Kara was starting to get used to being alone. She'd spent so long in the phantom zone on her own, this was nothing. As Kara grabbed the TV remote from the table, she heard a very timid knock.

That was new.

Who could be knocking so quietly? Who would even want to speak to her?

Instead of using her x-ray vision, Kara got up herself and went to the door. When she opened it, she only froze on the spot. The eyes staring back at her were enough to make her heart stop for a fleeting second.

L-Corp- 20:35

Lena sat filling out forms, whilst Nia was across the room in her crib sleeping peacefully. Lena glanced over and smiled to herself before glancing back down at the work before her. It was a painstaking minute before Lena pushed her chair back and got up to walk across to her sleeping daughter.

Once Lena picked Nia up, Nia wriggled in her arms before giggling clearly enjoying being in her mother's arms. The baby had already started growing brown hair which struck Lena, but her appetite was something that didn't surprise her because, well, her mother was an alien with a huge appetite. Which reminded Lena, Nia needed feeding. Just as that thought hit her, her phone bleeped. The Luthor huffed as she walked back over to her desk. She frowned heavily at the ominous text message. Alarm set in instantly, prompting her to put the phone to her ear and call the first and only person she had on speed-dial.

Kara's apartment- 20:40

"You're not even supposed to be here!" The blonde shouted at her uninvited guest, "This isn't funny anymore. I lost you, you aren't real, you can't be." She tried to move her wrist as she was pinned to the sofa by the other person who walked in the moment Kara opened the door.

"You ruin one life, I'm not letting you do it again. You need to keep out Supergirl. Stay out of our lives, that way you don't get hurt and we can all get on with our lives. You not being there for any of us proved one thing, you're useless and pathetic!" The woman snapped, before raising an eyebrow, "And I'm stronger than you."

Kara fought back harder, managing to get the person on the floor, "As I said, this isn't funny. Who are you really?"

The figure laughed at her, "You think this is a pretence? Kara, I'm what you made me, and all I'm here to do is make sure you know that there is a much darker future waiting for you. On the fields of Argo, you'll return one day and that is where you meet your fate. Nevermind the rest of us whose lives you destroy. Me and Lena, you destroy us because of one secret that she had to keep hidden from me all my life."

Kara frowned heavily, "What secret?"

The other person laughed, "You really don't know? Answer me this, why would you kill your own daughter in cold blood?"

"It wasn't cold blood!" Kara protested, "The timelines needed to be put right in order for her to be born again, so she could live her life again."

"And yet she saw her world burn and her mother die! You never gave a damn about what happened after!" The person shouted before Lena burst in through the door.

The place seemed to fall silent in that moment. Lena froze where she was as the person on top of Kara now stared back at her. Lena slowly moved her hand to her pocket to grab a gun, but the person that was beneath Kara, now moved and slowly walked over to Lena, "Mom." She gasped.

"This isn't funny. Shape-shifter right? Because I tell you something." Lena said coldly, "You're a little slow on the uptake, because my Nia, my Nia was killed by Kara. You're just a fake."

The woman stopped in the middle of the room, before getting winded by Kara, "You're coming with me." She snarled before dragging the other person with her.

Lena in that moment began to break down. This was all too much even for her, even though she knew that the creature she just saw was, in fact, a shapeshifter. After all, she was Lena, she wasn't stupid. She knew someone would want to expose her weakness and Nia was that weakness.
