It was hard getting back to work, the only thing I could think of was the Black Witch. It didn't feel like I was doing much, I turned my attention to the door as there was a knock. "Come in." I called. Kara walked in and I smiled, "morning."

"It is, to see you back at work," she chuckled shutting the door. She sat in front of me and I sighed, "that's a big sigh."

"I don't feel like I am doing anything," I admitted. "How do you do it? I mean you're supergirl and yet you come to CatCo and do this, how do you separate the big threats that you know are out there."

"I struggle sometimes," she nodded. "But my job here is just important as the one I do as Supergirl. Just like you Liberty, your advice helps millions of readers of this magazine and as a witch" the door opened we both turned and Clark walked in. "You ever heard of knocking?" I let out a sigh of relief. "As I was saying, as a witch you protect so many innocents from the underworld. You know I don't deal with demons."

"Don't say the d word," I said. "Then they just pop up and it all goes to shit." Clark laughed, he walked over and kissed my head, "hey, you got back fast."

"Well we do fly," he said.

I frowned, I felt like someone was calling me. "What's up?" Kara asked.

"I feel like somebody is calling me, or at least calling out to me," I said confused. "I've never felt this before." I thought of Liam. "LIAM!" I called. Blue swirls appeared in front of me and Liam was stood in front of me with Kelly. "I only called one of you."

"He was dealing with me and my issues," Kelly complained. "I'm hearing voices."

"Surely that's just your conscious," Kara said.

"No," Kelly said.

"You too huh?" I asked. "Feeling like someone is calling you?" She nodded. "Do you think this is because we are the ultimate power again?"

"No," Liam said. "You are powerful witches but you forget your orbing power is from whitelighters you're probably hearing a charge." I sat back in my chair and shook my head and he nodded, "yeah Liberty, you're hearing charges."

"Kelly is the one that is the nurturing between us, me I like to fight and blow things up," I said. "I don't want a charge, can't you tell them" I pointed up "that I don't want it yet."

"You don't get a choice for your destiny Liberty," Kelly said. I glared at her. "I know weird coming from me. You know considering I ignored it."

"Please Liam, give the charge to Kelly, I don't want it and I don't care for it." He nodded and orbed out, Kelly stared at me. "Don't look at me like that, you can look after them I'll turn up when a d needs vanquishing."

"Demon?"

I felt something hit me and I fell, "fireball!" Kelly called. I ducked again and flinched as I saw the burn on my shoulder. I sat up and put my hands up freezing him. It didn't work. "Freeze him!"

"Higher level demon," I said. I stood up, "didn't I vanquish you already?" He cocked his head to the side and shrugged. He conjured a fireball into his hand, "crystals!" I called. "Circle!" I pushed my hand towards him and he was trapped in the circle.

"Cool!" Kelly grinned.

"This is why we don't say demons!" I snapped. "It's like they sense it!" She put her hands up, I walked over to my desk draw and grabbed a potion, "don't ever say that word when we don't have them."

"Okay."

I looked at the demon, "what do you want?"

"To kill you."

"Get in line," I said. I got ready to throw the potion, "it's nice to see you again demon I'm pretty sure I already vanquished. Enjoy being vanquished again." I threw the potion and he burst into flames and disappeared. "Crystals home."

"Well exciting start," Kara said.

I rubbed my head, I looked in my draw, "I'm so going to have to make more potions," I muttered.

"Are you not at all concerned? You said that was a demon you vanquished before," Kelly said. "Surely we need to look into that."

"Kelly," I sighed. "Trust me we don't." She looked at me confused, "sometimes the magic behind the spells fail. I'm pretty sure it's not the same exact demon but if my memory serves me correct in the book it says that the high level demon comes from a greater demon who can produce them at whatever rate he wants."

"So vanquish him," Kara said.

I laughed, "if it was that easy," I said shaking my head. I looked at the pile of work on my desk, "now it's been lovely chatting with you all this morning get out of my office I have work to do."

Kelly stared at me, "we have to look into this," she said.

"Look I'm going to tell you how I've been doing things, I wait until they come to me, I vanquish them with whatever spell or potion I need then I get back on with my life. I can't be mixed in high level demons or greater demons because I was one witch. Now that's been working fine for me, so please Kelly drop it."

"I'm going to check the book," she said.

She orbed out and I groaned and shook my head, "good look finding the book."

"What book?"

"Book of Shadows, every witch has one, passed down from generation to generation, only I hid ours," I admitted sheepishly. "Magically cloaked, she won't find it. Although she's not going to admit that and will spend the rest of the day trying to find it."

"Wow," Kara laughed. I smiled a little, it wasn't often I got to trick my sister so when I did it felt great. "Liberty you realise your shoulder is still burnt."

I looked at my shoulder and groaned, I had forgot, "can't heal myself," I admitted. I opened the other draw and grabbed a gauze, I handed it to Clark, "patch up." He rolled his eyes and placed it on and taped it up. "Try explaining this one away."

"Easy, you got drunk and fell down into a coffee table," Kara said. I stared at her flatly, "that's my cue to leave. I'll see you later."

She walked out my office and I shook my head, I looked at Clark and he sat on the edge of my desk. "How are things in metropolis?"

"It's good," he nodded. "I have people keeping an eye over there and I am just a fly away." I nodded, "so are you okay?"

"I'm getting there Clark, getting there," I smiled. He bent down and kissed me softly, I smiled and kissed him back. "I love you."

"I love you too," he said. "I'm glad in a way we've sorted everything out," he paused "we have sorted everything out right?"

"Yeah," I nodded. "All my memories are back, painful as that was I'm glad. Now having our last memory before you got rid of them it helped understand that it was a necessary thing to do. You were right about one thing."

"What?"

"We will see each other again," I said. He smiled, he ran a hand through my hair and played with it a little bit.

"I also remember you falling that night and yet again I saved you," he said pointedly.

"I was really clumsy," I said shaking my head. "Stupidly clumsy."

"Maybe you just knew I would always be there," he teased. I blushed a little and he chuckled, "I mean some of those, like how did you manage to fall out a 2nd story window for a start?"

"I can't even explain that, I was only trying to reach for the window," I said shaking my head. "It was like something knocked me, I really can't explain it."

"Magic," he said.

My phone began to ring I reached over and answered, "Liberty Potter," I said.

"Liberty it's Darren," he said.

"Oh why are you phoning the office phone and not my mobile?" I asked confused.

"You haven't picked up your mobile for the last few days, and I heard someone say you were back at work," he said. "Sam wants to come and do some work experience with you, what do you say?"

"I don't see a problem with that," I shrugged. "She's a smart girl and I have faith in her abilities I also believe you should let her have some with Kara."

"No."

"Darren, you know she's good," I said.

"My answer is still no, she'll get trampled on," he said. "I'm sending her up."

I ended the call and looked at Clark, "I need your cousin, and where is my phone?" I asked confused. "Darren said he's been trying to phone me."

"Fortress or the DEO I'm not sure," he said.

I reached for my phone and dialled the extension for Kara's office, "Kara I know you just left I need your help with something."

"On my way."

She ended the call, and I put the phone down my door opened and Sam came in with Darren, "what happened to your shoulder?" I heard Darren ask.

Clark smiled and turned away from me, "I was drunk and fell down into a coffee table," even as I said the lie it sounded ridiculous to me. "This is why you shouldn't drink Sam." She laughed and nodded.

"Can I have a word in private?"

"Sure."

I got out the chair and punched Clark as I passed he quickly grabbed my wrist, "you know you can't hurt me right now?" He laughed quietly.

"I can keep trying." I muttered. I left the office shutting the door behind me, "so what's up? You don't have to worry about Sam, you know she's going to be fine. She did amazing last time."

"I'm not worried about her," he said. "I'm worried about you."

"Me? I'm fine."

"You disappeared for a week not answering my calls, and when you do turn back up you're wrapped in a gauze and you have him grabbing your wrist like you're his property," Darren said. "Is he hurting you?"

"What?" I asked shocked. "No. Don't be ridiculous. Clark would never hurt me. I've lost my phone that's why I haven't replied. I've had a rough week that's all. Clark would never ever hurt me."

"You did not fall down drunk and hit a coffee table, you realise how absurd that sounds?"

"Well, I'm sorry my reason doesn't hold up, it's true. Ask Winn I'm a clumsy drunk, actually ask anyone I'm clumsy. There's nothing malicious happening here Darren and Clark would never ever hurt me. I'd bet my life on it."

"You're hiding something," he pressed.

"You're right, I am," I said. "Nothing to do with Clark, I went through a trauma when I was 16," he looked at me shocked, "I thought I got over it, but something recently just brought it back and that's why I had a week off. I also did fall down drunk too but it was because I was having flashbacks of that trauma and I was in no state to come to work."

"You wanted to see me?" I turned to see Kara in that moment I was never so glad she had turned up.

"Yeah, I'll see you later Darren." I walked away and opened my office door, Sam and Clark were talking, I could tell by the look on Clark's face he had heard every word Darren had said. "Kara, Darren wanted Sam to do more work experience up here but I know both of us know that Sam doesn't want to be up here."

"Not true, you're awesome company," she protested.

"Well, as long as we keep this secret I think if this ok with Kara to let you go and follow her for a week," I said.

"It's good with me," Kara said. "Let's go."

They both left and I walked over to Clark and lifted his face, "you know I don't believe you could ever hurt me right? You know that."

"He loves you."

"I don't love him," I said. "Clark I know you would never hurt me."

"I'm glad you know," he said. "Thank you for defending me." I hugged his chest and I felt him kiss my head, and I smiled.
