It had been a week since the Black Witch was defeated, but it had been a week and Libby hadn't woken from her whatever this was. "Clark you need to rest," Kara said again. I shook my head, "yes, you're finding it hard to stay awake."
"Kara, I'm not leaving her," I muttered yawning. I stared at Libby and stroked her head, she had stopped burning up now and we had managed to clean her and dress her in clothes. She still hadn't woken up though. Kara stared at me and I laid down looking at Libby, I let out a yawn and soon found myself falling to sleep for the first time in a week.
I woke up a few hours later hearing Kelly talking to someone, I looked at her, "have you figured anything out?" I asked
"No, there is nothing in the book that explains this, and Liam has no idea either," Kelly said.
"The elders don't know everything Kelly," I heard Lila say. I turned around to see her walking into the room. "Some of them have big heads."
"Mum they are sent to guide us," Kelly said flatly. "Just because you didn't like your whitelighter."
"He was a snob, Liberty will agree with me on this," Lila said. She walked over and pressed her hand to Libby's.
"Too bad Liberty is passed out and has no voice," Kelly said smugly. We all stared at her, "What? She'd say the exact same if that was me laying there." Kelly patted her head and I saw a little bit of blue.
"Do that again," I said standing up. She did and I saw the blue from before appear, "do you see that?"
"Clark let go of her hand," Lila said softly. I did as she said and backed up a little bit, "Kelly hold your sister's hand."
Kelly did as she was told, the blue appeared over them again as things slowly began to shake, "this is what happened when I got my powers back," Kelly mumbled confused.
Lila held her hand out for Kelly to hold, Kelly held her hand and the room shook I watched as two white swirls appeared above Kelly and Libby, some of them separated and turned into their own white swirl. The shaking stop and it just held the swirls over their head, "what is happening?" Lila asked confused.
"I think you were right on them not having the correct powers," I said. The two original white swirls entered Libby and Kelly as the new one hovered between them eventually going to settle into Lila.
"What just happened?" Kelly asked confused.
"I got my powers back," she whispered. Kelly looked at her in surprise, "the potion didn't destroy my powers like I thought. They gave them to the two of you."
"So what does that mean for us?" Kelly asked.
"I think it means you have the powers you should have," Lila said. "Which means figure it out, but I think someone will no longer have her lovely fire power." Kelly looked at her curiously and Lila lifted her hand and it held fire. "That was my power, Libby should have never had it, she's lucky she didn't kill herself."
Liberty's POV
I felt awful. I groaned, I felt like a whole house had landed on me and I knew I wasn't that far away from what had happened. I stood up and frowned I was still at the house but it was back together, I walked forward and saw Catalina stood by the door. "What is happening right now?"
"You're in limbo," she said.
I laughed and I realised she wasn't laughing with me, "oh you're serious," I said my eyes wide. "Why am I in limbo?"
"You nearly died Liberty, the blast should have killed you," she said. "My sister Katarina is now at peace, thanks to you and your sister."
"Great. Can I go home?"
"I don't think you understand Liberty, if you carry on this path it will not end well," she said. I stared at her. She nodded in front of her and we walked up the attic stairs, I saw my mum in the kitchen at home and she was baking. I smiled, I always did love coming home to the smell of cake, even better when I got to eat it. "This is your path unless you change some of your actions."
"Grams!" Two little girls yelled running into the kitchen, "you best tell Lara she's getting into everything!"
"Oh girls, she's just a baby," mum laughed.
"She's 5," one of them said flatly. I laughed a little.
"Enough sass Grace and Alura, be nice to Lara and go and get your brother, it's time to celebrate," mum said.
"He's not here," Alura shrugged.
"Jordan!" Mum yelled. Blue orbs appeared and stood before us was a splitting image of Clark.
"Who are they?" I asked.
"It'll all come clear," she said. "Follow them." I did as she said and followed mum and the other children into the living room and out into the garden.
"Is daddy going to be here?" I heard Lara ask.
"No baby, not today," mum said sadly.
"I miss mummy," Grace said quietly. As I got closer and closer I saw the memorial, "why wasn't we enough?"
"Oh honey, you were enough, Liberty loved you, every night she got home to tuck you into bed, all it takes is once and send didn't."
"If she didn't throw herself into danger all the time this wouldn't have happened," Jordan snapped. "Mum should have been here with us, and let's not even talk about that pathetic asshole that's our father."
"Jordan that's enough, not in front of the girls," mum snapped.
"What lie do you tell them Grams?" Jordan asked. "The same one you told me? Mum didn't care, if she did she wouldn't have gotten herself killed. She choose to go after those demons."
"I'm dead?" I asked shocked. "These are my children?" She nodded. "With Clark?" She nodded again, "where's he?"
"After you died, he tried to be there for the children, he was for the first year and he went off into the deep end, nobody is sure where he is," Catalina said.
"How long?" I asked.
"You've been dead for almost 5 years now," she said. "This is the future you may have, if you carry on throwing yourself into danger Liberty. It's unnecessary sometimes, you have sisters, other witches, you do not have to bare the world on your shoulders."
I saw my mum wrap her arms around Jordan and he broke down crying screaming for his mum, well me, I shook my head as tears streamed down my face. "No, stop."
"You can change your path," Catalina said. "I want to show you something, that could be a possibility." She led me back into the house but it was different.
"Mummy mummy!" A little boy yelled. "Daddy flew me over the house!" I saw me sat on the sofa with a bag of Doritos resting on a rather huge stomach.
"Did he now?" I heard myself ask. "I might have to talk with daddy and stick him on that naughty step, we shouldn't fly around the house or over it. That's a true for when you go to the fortress."
"It wasn't my fault," Clark protested walking past us and towards her, he kissed her softly and then leant down and kissed her belly. "He just pouted and he kind of had me there."
"Pathetic," she scoffed.
"You could have this Liberty, just be more careful, you and your sister was never meant to be the ultimate power, the power you wielded in that battle, did not belong to you." Catalina said.
"Who?"
"Your mother, the potion that was thrown, temporally misplaced her powers, but as the battle was looming they had to be brought into the battle, so they chose the stronger witch," Catalina said. "If you want you can leave limbo."
"How?"
"Just open your eyes," she said.
I frowned at her confused, as the scene before me started disappearing, I blinked as I groaned. I turned to see Clark sat in the chair next to me. "Hey," he said softly. "You're awake."
"I don't feel it," I mumbled. "I hurt and ache all over."
"A house blew up on you," he said. "You exploded, but we won't have that problem anymore. Let me get Kelly and your mum."
"No don't go," I said not wanting to leave him. He smiled and I brought his hands closer to me, "I love you Clark, so much."
He bent down and kissed me softly, "I have never been so worried."
"I'm sorry, I will not do that again, ever," I said. "Is she gone?" He nodded, "good."
He stood up and walked out the room he came back a second later with everyone in tow, mum rushed over to my bedside and kissed my head. She then sent her fist flying into my arm and I groaned "you stupid idiot," she scolded. "I was so worried."
"I know," I said. I looked at them and nodded, "I'll be more careful, I promise." They looked at me doubtfully, I didn't believe I had been that reckless. "Do I have to stay at the DEO?"
"That depends," Kara said. "Are you going straight on your feet?"
"No," I said. "I'll be going to bed." She nodded I got off he bed and groaned, "wow that feels terrible."
Kelly chuckled, I remembered the weird dream I had, "Kara, can I talk to you privately?" They all looked at me and they began to file out, Clark looked at me begrudgingly and I nodded for him to go and he sighed but left. I patted her to sit on the bed.
"What's up?" She asked.
"I had a weird dream, well it's not a dream it happened," I mumbled. She looked at me confused. "I was in limbo and Catalina was there she showed me two possible futures and in them I was with Clark."
"Right," she said not understanding where I was going.
"In one there was 4 children, and in the other I had little boy and was pregnant again," I said. "I was pregnant with Clark's children."
"Oh," she said surprised.
"I thought human and Kryptonian's couldn't have children," I said. "Clark never believed we could, is it possible?"
"Liberty, you survived an explosion, fire literally exploded from you and then a house collapsed on you," she said with a small smile. "I think it could be possible." I smiled a little, "Also you aren't just a human you're a witch, a damn powerful one."
"Thanks Kara, can you keep this between us?" I asked. She nodded, I went to stand up and winced shaking my head, "really feel like a house has fallen on me. Can you send Clark?" She laughed and nodded a few minutes later he came in alone. "You want to go home?"
"Where is home exactly?" He asked curiously.
"With you," I said. He wrapped an arm around me being careful to lift me up, I wrapped my arms around him ignoring the shooting pain. "I love you Clark."
