Dr. Lillian Luthor had become restless. She had been with the DEO for two years without allowing to be let out without an armed escort. She knew they would never trust her, and if she was to be free, it would be to escape. She also knew if she had one chance it was now when it was relatively quiet with Alex still suspended and Supergirl on extended leave.
She waited till she was on duty, as whenever she was off she knew she was monitored.
She was faking going over supplies in the cabinetry saw her chance to go to the supply room to get more medical aids, and timed it perfectly when she knew the supply truck came.
The DEO officers were going over the shipping logs with the driver when she quickly hopped onto the back of the cargo truck. Once in she hid behind tall boxes in the very back of the truck.
She waited. Sure enough, they never went back into the truck after unloading the supplies. She watched as the door was slid down and she heard it lock into place. Her heart hammered in her chest. She knew she had only one chance. If she ever was caught she would be in a DEO cell for life.
She felt the truck moving for what seemed hours, when after a long while she felt it stop. She slid back behind the farthermost boxes to hide. She saw daylight peek in when the door went up again.
She watched as more boxes were unloaded and the door was still open. She quickly climbed out and jogged away, seeing that she was in an industrial area of National City.
It felt good to be free again.
She grabbed a cab as all she had on was her while doctor's smock and a pantsuit underneath but knowing she would be escaping she was carrying her wallet with her. "Where to Ma'am?" The cab driver asked bored.
"National City airport, there is a $20 tip if you can get me there in under ten minutes." The driver immediately sped to the airport.
As there was nothing going on, the staff thought Luthor was inventorying med supplies so they allowed hours to go without her being noticed. By the time someone realized she was not in the medical supply room. She had taken a flight out of the country to whereabouts unknown.
Dr. Hamilton was not happy when she realized after a quiet search she was nowhere to be found and had gone radio silent. She reported to Director Henshaw also known as J'onn Jonz.
"I am sorry J'onn. I had no idea she had thoughts of escaping! It's been two years after all!"
J'onn groans and rubs at his face, "okay... how long since anyone had eyes on her?"
"Hours...we don't even know when and how she did it!" She sat down. "She had gotten quiet. I should have realized she was up to something, but she has been the model doctor all this time, I had no reason to suspect." She looked down. "You may as well start a hunt for her. We won't have her cooperation anymore if we drag her back anyway."
He nods, "she has a massive head start, no doubt she is out of the city by now. But depending on hiccups I'll set up a parameter and put in a call to the airports. I'll also ask Winn to look into security footage."
"At least she won't want to experiment anymore and is no longer an enemy to the DEO."
"If she stays low it will be like a self-imposed prison for her. Most likely on some wonderful tropical island or something." Hamilton sighed. "Speaking of a vacation I really need one with all the Kryptonian drama I have had to endure. I am tired J'onn and am human. I am tired of our resident Kryptonian hurting themselves."
He nods, "so long as you have a doctor to cover for you, I have no issues with you taking a vacation."
She eyed him. "And you know they do all the damn time lately! Especially our rogue Overgirl!" She growled.
"We are down one, but we still have others on staff and Livingston if needed."
She handed him her vacation request. "Two weeks and I am not to be disturbed or this becomes a resignation form." She declared. "Honestly Director, I can see why she took off. She was probably just as tired as me." Dr. Hamilton turned to leave. "I will start vacation tomorrow."
J'onn sits himself down, "Yes ma'am."
She walked off quickly.
"I am really sorry things got so bad between us Kar. I just knew if it came from me your twin wouldn't see it coming and had cooperated. I didn't see that going any other way and I really should have. She is malnourished now and it is because of me."
Kara strokes her thumb over her hand, "the both of you have gone downhill because of me," she looks at her sadly.
"What? How can you say that Kara?" Alex asked holding both her sister's hands. Her face a truly shocked expression. "Nothing about this situation is your fault sweetie." She hugged her tightly. "I missed you so much..."
Kara shakes her head, hugging her in return, "if I had of just defended you then I would have lost Overgirl… if I'd sided with her I lose you... but I lost you both. You have both become a wreck because of me!"
"No I was acting out of orders. She herself knows she can be dangerous. You my dear have nothing to do with this. Where is she anyway?"
She shakes her head, "I was angry and upset with you and told you to not contact me at all," she cups her face. "You lost weight because I lost my way... because I was influenced by my girlfriend." She strokes her cheeks with her thumbs, "I love you... and she is out eating, probably at a buffet."
"You were. And I guess part of my problem was I was jealous. You and I have always been together and I know it's stupid but I felt replaced by her. I know a lot of time went by and you only had each other but..." she started to tear up. "I'm sorry. I am usually the rock. Look at me!" She shook her head angry at herself.
Kara gets a phone call...
