Chapter 30
"This is pretty cool," Mon-El said. He and Kara now stood in the middle of her own fortress. The Stones of Power gave their all to create the fortress which was located not far from Clark's own fortress up in the Artic. At first, it had been suggested to put her fortress in Antarctica but that pole had been thoroughly investigated and the chances of running into humans were too great.
"It is pretty cool. Dax-Ur should be almost done with helping Mom and Argo getting their external communications back up. Then we can make a direct connection with them here and I can patch the connection in for the DEO. We can also use this as portal so we don't have to keep borrowing J'onn's ship," Kara smiled. The elder Kryptonian had agreed to go back to Argo with Alura to help them with the Kryptonian technology Kara's father had used to save the small slice of their home planet.
"A direct connection with your Mom is important and your crystal was the missing piece. Who would have thought it," her boyfriend smiled.
"Certainly not me. My father was a very complicated man," the blonde admitted.
"You think that Dax-Ur left more because he didn't want to end up like your father?" Mon-El wondered.
"You mean the whole "create something that would kill millions"? Yes, I suppose that Brainiac is just another version of the Worldkillers. Explains why my father saw no qualms about finishing Brainiac," Kara frowned.
"Yeah that," Mon-El nodded.
"I have no idea what happened to him. He used to care so much about me and Mom and I guess he was good at hiding his feelings because I had no idea he was cheating on my mother. Nor did we have any idea that he would turn his back on Rao. He always did believe in more of what he could see and touch than in religion and for that I did not fault him. I often questioned my beliefs. More and more I find that I lean on what I can see and what I can feel; not what an ancient book has told me," the blonde admitted.
"Religion is what you make of it, or at least I always thought so. It's supposed to help guide you down the proper moral path but I'd say that you needed no help in that department. If there is a great creator, I'm sure you won't have any troubles when you meet him. Me on the other hand…" he frowned.
"You have changed since we first met. I cannot count the number of times that you have done something that makes me burst with pride. You are a good man Mon-El. Never forget it," Kara told him. She pulled him close; their breaths mingled for a moment or two, before she closed the gap and pressed her lips to his. The kiss deepened when Mon-El ran his tongue over her lips, asking for entrance.
"This is Argo, come in Supergirl," the radio transmission broke into their moment and the two pulled apart. Kara went to the computer and pushed a few buttons and a video popped up revealing the caller.
"This is Supergirl. Read you loud and clear Argo," she responded.
"Excellent. Give my regards to everyone. Dax-Ur has decided to stay here. Let J'onn know. He'll know what to do," Alura told her daughter.
"Ok very good. I miss you already," Kara said.
"And I you, daughter. We will talk soon. I promise to make another trip to Earth soon too," Alura promised.
"Can't wait. Patching you through to Winn. I love you," Kara said.
"I love you too," with that the call was patched to the DEO.
"All set?" Mon-El asked.
"Should be," the blonde smiled.
"Good, then where were we?" He smirked and pulled her close.
