Deals with Demons

by Lonly Wanderer

Demons are not something to be trifled with, but the oncoming destruction of Krypton tested even Alura's morality and she summoned one to help her, for an interesting price. But the planet still burned, though there's something different about our familiar blond hero. Really bad at summaries, sorry. AlurLane, General Danvers, more in future. Demon AU of Supergirl

5. Chapter 5

LW: Well now for something completely unrelated to what's happening in the Supergirl canon. The usual random insanity you should be used to by now from me :D

Deals with Demons – Chapter 5 (Or the Alex fucks up chapter)

Alex's apartment

'Watashi ni kite, ā, kodai no mono.' Alex chants, really hoping she read/translated it correctly (she probably should have asked Alura and Lucy for the texts, rather than simply borrow them, but oh well) and was fairly confident when the symbols produced a plume of smoke… up until everything turned upside down.

'Are all humans this suicidally stupid, or are you unique in this regard?' A snarky hiss passed from the smoke, before a long snout nearly poked her in the eye as Leviathan Lutessa steps out of the circle in her true form

Despite the being in front of her Alex remained calm 'you're her correct? The Leviathan?'

'Yes darling, that's me. You obviously summoned me for a reason, what is it?' she smiled as her tail raises the human to eye level

Alex takes a moment before she answers 'I want to free Kara from your bind. It shouldn't have been her deal to make' she says confidently, or as confident as someone dangling upside-down by their ankle, so was surprised when the demon laughs in her face

'Oh you are supremely dim child. Firstly, why would I give up a powerful Halfling like Kara as my mate…' she casually smears Alex's circle with her clawed foot '…for a weak human without even the most basic of a magical core?' she appears to be quite gleefully enjoying Alex's look of sheer horror

'But… how?'

'The summoning circle you used, is inadequate to hold a Satan such as myself, even less so given you have no magic of your own within yourself or your bloodline with which to feed it, nor any lyrium with which to substitute your own deficiencies. You're lucky you summoned me and not one of the others, or that pretty little neck of yours would be snapped by now. The current Nocturne in particular, she would have had a lot of fun breaking you' she purrs, her long fingers running along Alex's cheek

'You said firstly, what else is stopping you?' Alex finally asks after a few minutes of tense silence

'Quite simply that Kara's wish saved your father's life, if I free Kara from our deal, it'll be a short trip from here to Cadmus where Jeremiah gets his heart ripped out or his skull crushed, actually I haven't done that in decades, maybe I should' her eyes flash as Alex is moved closer to Leviathan, her jaws opens widely and the human feels the pointed teeth pierce the skin of her chin as well as the crown of her head

'It wouldn't be that difficult you know' a sibilant voice purrs in the dark corners of her mind 'To crack your fragile human skull like a walnut and revive you as my thrall, my little pet with the sole purpose of pleasing me. After all you have no power over me and I'm free to do as I will' Alex tenses, the scent of death and decay as well as the fact the reptid's tongue was nearly burning her simply by ghosting over her skin made her worry about her survival 'But I won't' the teeth retract and Alex is flung to the ground with a painful thud 'There is something we share Little One, Kara's affection, there's no reason to damage that simply because you're a self sacrificing idiot' Leviathan watches Alex shuffle weakly as she pulls herself up 'This will be the last time you attempt to summon me dearie, or next time I break you regardless of what Kara will do because of it, though I'm sure we'll see each other again in the future. Ta ta little sis' she flashes a feral grin before shimmering away, leaving the agent with a couple broken bones, minor bite marks on her skull and a healthy fear of the divine and the demonic instilled in her.

DEO

'Should I even bother asking what stupid stunt lead to this?' Lexi asks as she works on the brunette 'Or is this some other helping Kara related burst of idiocy?' the human's silence is all she needs 'Alexandra, I know you don't want to hear this, but Kara can take care of herself'

'But she's my little sister, I'm supposed to protect her, that was what I was supposed to do since she was brought into our family' Alex argues angrily 'But no, I can't help her, and if she gets hurt there's nothing I can do'

Despite herself Lexi can't help but chuckle 'Oh you silly human, so like my little sister. Always trying to put the worries of the world on her petit shoulders, even when there are others to carry that burden. And there are Agent Danvers: Kara has her parents, her aunt, Director Jones, you, agent Schott and the entire DEO on her side, your sister is never alone child, neither are you' the human sighs but nods to the doctor's advice, even if she doesn't really believe her and Lexi knows that, which is why she was informing Kara of this most recent burst of self-destructive/self-sacrificing idiocy.

Alien Bar that evening

'Well someone has that look on their face that says she's fucked up' Maggie grins widely as she finally manages to get the agent to go for drinks with her, as well as let her see the wider world so to speak; she was sure the brunette had seen the frost giant and the Chuthulen on the way to their table, but the neko giving her the eyes seems to have gone completely over her head, as well as the Hellian pouring drinks though Maggie didn't mind, at least Maze being on tonight instead of M'Gann meant she'd get some good booze.

Alex groans before looking at the detective with a half assed glare 'I tried to be a good big sis, I didn't fuck up as you put it'

'Really, because I'm not judging if it is but what part of being a good sister involves teeth?' Maggie asks as she runs her fingers along Leviathan's bite marks

'No-n-nothing' Alex stutters as her cheeks turn beat red, then a scowl forms when her eyes flick across the bar

'Eh Danvers?' Maggie calls but the agent has already left her seat and advanced on a familiar Hellian and the flustered Latina by her side.

Lucy grins widely at finally having a chance to cut loose and enjoy herself, running her fingers along her brand teasingly, feeling it heat up under her fingertips 'What do you say love, repeat of that first night after this?'

'Only if I'm still sober enough to walk or fly out of here myself' the woman replies placing a kiss on her partner's temple

'Ah hem' Lucy groans before turning on her stool, eyebrows raised slightly when she finds herself eye to eye with Alex (and noticing the bite marks and bruising on the human's body almost instantly) 'Really Lucy, being out on a date with some chick after all that crap you said to Kara about being a family?' she asks angrily

'Really Alexandra? We could ask you the same for why you're here with a …what is that thing Luci?'

'Desire demon love' Lucy nods in agreement

'Desire demon, rather than my sister?' the woman returns just as sharply as Alex had causing her to blink

'No way, you're…'

'Yes dumbo that's my Alura under a glamour, what did you expect, another Astra? Why should they have to be twins when in disguise?' Lucy answers the unfinished questions and fires back some of her own 'Al is sitting the BAR this weekend, I'm showing support for my mate in my own way, by taking her out for a little fun. Don't tell Kara by the way, we want it to be a surprise when she gets it'

'Um okay'

'And for the love of Rao Alexandra, don't sleep with the damn Desire Demon' Alura hisses before turning to Lucy 'so which of these will actually do something to me on this planet?'

'Oh this is going to be fun'

'So you're back Danvers, know those sexy ladies?' Maggie asks with a smile when Alex returns to the table much less hot headed than when she left

'Yeah, they're my little sister's birth parents. I'm sure you can tell one's under a glamour and the other's a Hellian, given you're a desire demon' Alex replies flatly, noticing how the other woman's eyes practically inflate with surprise

'Well given that you're human…'

'Don't finish that, I've had enough of demons looking down on me for being ordinary, just get to the point' Alex hisses as she grips the front of Maggie's shirt who raises her hands defensively

'Fine Danvers, no offence meant. Still yes I am a desire demon, specifically a Halfling like your sister… don't give me that look Kara's other mother isn't a demon or any kind of magical being so she has to be a halfling. Or maybe not the same, my parents were magic but couldn't have a child, summoning a desire demon, these days I know her simply as Aunt Eris, she made it that they could have me, the catch being I would become a demon when I hit puberty. Luckily glamours come natural to my kind or I'd get a lot of weird looks' at Alex's curious glance she takes the human's hand in her own and brings it to her chest, then watches the girl turn near ruby red when she feels soft, warm flesh where there should be fabric 'And that's just the start' she says with a smirk as Alex manages to get her hand free from the demon's grasp, Maggie having her usual flirty smile which causes things to bubble inside.

L Corp

Lena's back clicks as she stands to take a break from mind numbing paperwork when she hears a thump on her balcony, followed by the door swinging open

'Sure come right in darling' she says with a smirk and a hand wave, not even turning to see Supergirl enter the room 'Any reason you're showing up through the window this time?'

'What did you do to Alex?' Kara asks, ignoring the demons question, though her smirk only widens rather than show any irritation

'So the human tattled?' she teases in a child like tone, her slitted pupils asserting themselves

'No but you left some pretty distinctive claw marks on the floor of her apartment, maybe don't grandstand where simply moving your foot can leave permanent marks' Kara retorts before continuing 'So once more, what did you do?'

Lena chuckles 'Nothing the child didn't deserve.'

'She has bite marks on her body from those needle teeth of yours, and these aren't hicky level bites, that was a survived a crocodile or a shark attack kind of bite' Kara argues back angrily

'She wanted me to break our deal, free you from my brand' she explains with a hiss 'I told her no, explained why and then scared her a little. I may have also threatened to kill her and resurrect her as a thrall, speaking of which I miss having those back in the old days, you and Cat are always so busy and I never pay for sex' Kara, seeing Leviathan was obviously going off on a mental tangent slams her fist into the table, breaking it (probably better than slamming her fist into Lena's face, mostly because she gets to keep all her limbs, not something she's be able to boast about once Lena stopped seeing stars) 'Now that was just rude' she pouts

'Stay away from my sister; I can handle her arguments myself'

'Then teach her not to summon me, I'm breaking bones next time' Lena argues back

'You already did! 2 ribs and her collarbone' Kara yells before in a blur of motion she was lifted off the ground, staring into large reptilian eyes as Leviathan's clawed hand grips her throat tight enough to snap a human's neck

'Your sister has a thick skull, so you can try and get this through to her, maybe even learn it yourself: I don't like people trying to take my things, I get angry and then I get violent. As long as Alexandra doesn't try to make me break my deal, she won't force my hand'

'So I'm just one of your possessions then?' Kara croaks, Leviathan raising a brow ridge before releasing the hero, letting her float back to the ground as the Satan turns on her heels, a flick of her wrist engulfing her in purple smoke where the sound of snapping bone and tearing flesh was heard, when the smoke cleared Lena was standing passively, staring at the cracked window her chair being flung back had caused and chuckled mirthlessly

'Oh Kara, you are so much more than that' the hand gesture was an obvious dismissal but Kara had said her piece so had no other reason to stay, leaving the way she came, noting her kicked puppy eyes appeared to have no effect on the pink/green eyed demon.

Cat's

'Well what can I do for you Supergirl' Cat asks with a smirk, until she sees the tear tracks on Kara's cheeks and turns serious, ushering her in quickly

'Thanks Cat, I needed someone to talk about and the only other person who I can discuss Lena with is preoccupied'

Cat snorts 'Really, do I even want to know?'

Kara sighs 'When I arrived to talk I first thought Lucy was cheating for a minute, but then the glamour faded and there she was, a little tipsy and giddy but it was definitely mom. Given the next thing that happened was seeing my ukr's bare and really perky breasts because mom tore the shirt off her I decided to find somewhere else… quickly'

'So I'm 2nd choice, way to make a girl feel loved Kiera' Cat scoffs before freezing 'Wait, baby Lane's your father? Well that was unexpected, continue'

Kara sits and sighs 'Alex decided to summon Lena and get her to set me free…'

'You're sister is still alive correct?'

'Yes?'

Cat sighs in relief 'Good, Leviathan is….' She stops when there's shrieking and thrashing audible from the living room 'Ah crap' she mutters runs off Kara following and finding Carter groaning and writhing, scales erupting along his skin before receding 'Hey Carter, come on kiddo it's just a nightmare' Cat coos soothingly, unfortunately the boy's tail had managed to assert itself, flicking around as he twitches before striking forward in Cat's direction.

The tail is stopped by a pale hand wrapped around it's tip, Lena appearing with her glowing pink eyes, low clicks escaping her throat before she kneels on the bed and pulls the half shifted reptid into an embrace, unintelligible noises coming from the duo as Carter begins to relax, Lena's long fingers running through his hair as she gently ruffled it.

Lena's eyes meet Cat who nods and steps out, Kara glad she hadn't moved from the doorway the entire time as it probably wasn't a good idea to get to close to the Satan right now. It made the decision to follow Cat back into her room very easy as otherwise it would just be a matter of time before Lutessa either saw or more likely sensed her skulking around

'Does that happen a lot?' Kara asks, sitting on the bed and looking at the wall in concern

'The nightmares? Every now and again, the shifting is more recent and one of the reasons I asked Lena to help him control his abilities'

'It's probably a good thing she showed up when she did, that tail could have hurt' Kara winced and surprisingly Cat laughs

'Very true Kara. I think Leviathan's been shadow parenting Carter a lot longer than she will ever admit to doing so' Cat smiles and Kara looks confused 'Helicopter parenting didn't sound right seeing as she's literally a demon from the pits of Hell'

'Plus the last time she was in a helicopter it got shot at, like a lot' Kara jokes and Cat smiles before it drops

'This is what she wants, what she never had; a family' Kara raises her eyebrows 'Leviathan has been alone for a long time, sure she has had thralls and bed mates but Carter is the first offspring she's ever produced, the only being sired by the 2nd most powerful demon in existence. She's defensive and protective of this, which is why I was surprised she let Agent Scully live after trying to take you away from her. I know Leviathan and to a certain extent Lena seems aloof and flighty at times, but she has a death grip on anything she deems as hers, and this family she's building for herself definitely fits the bill'

Kara flops down and leans against the media mogul 'I know she cares but today it just felt like I was some kind of object to her, something she can write 'Lena's, fuck off!' on and be done with. Now I think about it, isn't that what these marks are?' she rubs the L on her wrist thoughtfully

Cat chuckles 'Oh Kara, my sweet naive super, you are so much more than a possession to her. Lena has fallen for you Sunny Danvers, I think so have I but right now it's about her. You keep forgetting she's a demon, she's not going to just ask politely for people to go away, she's going to break things and possibly kill people in order to protect what she sees as hers, namely you, me and Carter. I know as a hero you think killing is wrong, but like I said, Lena's a Demon, a very freaking old and powerful demon who has a certain way of doing things, I bet even baby Lane has no problem killing for her family's protection' she explains, smirking when Kara (reluctantly) nods in agreement 'I'm glad we understand one another, but I think you need to rest. Le will be in there about half an hour so just curl up on the bed and I'll sort things out once Carter goes to sleep'

'You don't have to do this, giving up your bed…'

'I'm not giving up my bed, like your Red K self pointed out we're both mates to The Leviathan, we should at least be able to share a bed without breaking out in hives' Cat states directly, finding amusement that she could make the great Supergirl blush.

'O-okay Cat' Kara gulps and as instructed curls up on the bed, Cat running her fingers through her hair not too dissimilar to what she does for Carter, the halfling's eyes droop and close, gently snoring escape her lips in under 10 minutes.

Alex's apartment, the next morning

'Ow my fucking head' Alex groans as she sits up in her bed, trying to remember how she even got there in the first place

'Well hello to you too sleepy head' Maggie greets with a chipper smirk as she enters the room herself

'Maggie! Holy shit we didn't sleep together did we?' Alex asks in a panic

'I'm actually offended you'd say such things: 1 that you don't want to sleep with me, and 2 that I need you to be wasted in order to sleep with me. Besides even if I tried, should I mention the kryptonian currently in your shower who could break me in like 5 seconds?' the desire demon wrings her hands nervously, just as Alex hears the shower stop then Astra blurs into the room in her usual clothes

'Good morning Brave One, I see you've awoken, should I get you some painkiller for your hangover?' Astra asks, her focus solely on her mate rather than the detective

'No, I'm good, I need this pain right now' Alex waves her off and the kryptonian rolls her eyes

'Do I want to know what you did to deserve this pain and lead you to heavy drinking?' she asks

'I did something stupid, without thinking…'

'Hence why it was a stupid decision Brave One' Astra jokes 'Such as getting your ass kicked by Leviathan' despite herself Alex laughs

'Kicking my ass would imply their was an actual fight involved, I was hanging upside down for the entire time, including when in her mouth… shut up' Alex hisses at a grinning Maggie 'Wait, how did you know it was Leviathan?'

'I've seen the creature as well as the marks on your head. I actually think she has the same amount of teeth in both forms, they fit in that elongated reptile snout but look creepy when she smirks as a human with demon teeth'

'And the reason you're here and not dead is…'

'Simple, I did something rash before and it bit me in the ass, leading me to getting imprisoned in Fort Rozz. So instead I'm getting all the facts before knocking on Lena's door' Astra answers

'I think I had my Fort Rozz moment when Lena threatened to crush my skull between her jaws, or possibly her thighs… don't' Maggie opens her mouth but closes it at Alex and Astra's glares 'then tosses me across the room like a rag doll. Fuck I should have just talked to Kara instead of basically trying to force the hand of a fucking demon' she groans as she flops back onto the bed, not helped by both of the others laughing at her 'Yeah laugh it up, laugh at the dumb, squishy human' she mutters

'You're not squishy Danvers, you're toned, it's not your fault compared to a demon or a kryptonian you're kind of fragile but as those both tend to be able to shrug off gunfire and getting thrown through a brick wall and jump right back through it and continue fighting it makes sense' Maggie says, chuckling as she pokes her in the ribs.

'I suppose, doesn't mean I have to like it either' she groans as she curls into the nearest warm body, in this case that of Maggie to freezes and looks over to Astra who was still just smiling

'What have I just let myself into?' the desire demon thinks before shrugging 'It'll be fun though, the stamina of these girls'

L Corp, about midday

Lena smiles as she prepares her notes for the future video conference when Jess calls her 'Miss Luthor, Kara is sitting outside and appears to be waiting to see if she can see you. Did you guys have a fight or something? I was actually expecting her to walk right past me as usual but she's sitting outside your office. I'm really confused' she says and even Lena can hear the succubus is actually pretty close to disturbed something she didn't expect to ever hear on her assistant

'Yes send her in immediately' Lena replies, the door clicking open and Kara walks in slowly 'are we still fighting darling?'

Kara blinks 'No, I mean I hope not. I, I wanted to say sorry how I reacted, my sister is important to me she's family and I kind of react badly to people hurting them… which is exactly what you were doing in your own demonic way, stopping Alex from breaking up your family' she sniffles and is surprised when she gets pulled into the ravenette's embrace

'Oh Kara, I didn't want you to cry, but I couldn't let someone take you from me, like I said before; human, alien, demon, spirit or even angel, they try and I break things. I hope we can move past this' she bites her lip and Kara kisses it

'I think we'll be fine and if what Aunt Astra said is true you really put the fear of G… well Satan into Alex, she's not going to do something like this again'

'Good, disapproving siblings and even other relatives I can handle, I don't care if she thinks I'm not good enough for you morally or otherwise as long as you think I'm good enough for you, but trying to break these bonds will not end well for anyone, even Luci' Lena admits, stroking Kara's cheeks and getting her to smile and blush the demon grinned too as it appeared Sunny Danvers had returned to her

'I bet, almost makes me glad Lex is in jail, he'd definitely be disapproving of what we have' Kara jokes and Lena cracks a smile even if a small part of her winces in memory 'I have to get back to work or else Snapper will have my head, think we could do dinner?' Kara's pout had returned and this time Lena wasn't even trying to ignore it

'Sounds wonderful darling, we'll eat at Baratie, the owner has wanted me to see how well my little business venture went for a month now. 8 good for you?' she asks and gets a happy squeal in return. Kara kisses her cheek and rushes out, Jess peaking in once she was gone 'Everything's fine now, no need to panic' Lena answers the question in her eyes and the succubus nods before returning to work.

'Well that was entertaining dearie'

Lena spins around and was only mildly shocked her caller was around at this time, but the shade had never been one for punctuality so she just ignored it 'Find your own girl to play with' she replies with a mock glare, the black eyed woman just grins wider

'Oh… Lena is it? Well for the moment at least. Why must you be so serious around me?'

'Because one of us has to Helena, how to people even fear you when you act like this?'

'Because I can kill them with no chance of a backlash. Perks of my species and my title' Helena's grin got wider and despite herself Lena joins her 'Also can you imagine the look on those pompous jackasses up top if they found out we were in contact with each other? Makes me smile regardless of the circumstances outside' she laughs madly

'Well having 4 Satans in a room spells disaster; but if we're on different continents… nobody has to know'

'Crowley is worried he has a traitor in his mitts and Raz was killed about a year ago, have you tried getting in touch with the new Lucifer dearie?'

'No but it shouldn't be too hard, I just need to beat the crap out of League members until I find the new Demon's head, or find someone with the dagger's marks on their skin, meaning either the Dark One themselves or a bond mate'

'Always so direct, makes me wonder how you lasted this long Leviathan' Helena teases only half jokingly

Lena scoffs 'Because my kind are difficult to kill Fiona Nocturne' her needle teeth flash at the Shade's anger at the use of that name 'anything else?'

'Just idle gossip and something I found ironically amusing'

Lena sighs 'What?'

'Just that the brightest Supergirl is a Demon, well half but still, while the darkest Kara In-Ze is an Angel' Helena's black eyes flash as Lena actually stares in shock

'You're talking about that one aren't you? But how, the barrier should be impenetrable'

'Well something breached it, and I peered in through the cracks in the world as I always do and there she was, your Sunny Danvers an angel in a Dark World. Like I said, it amused me for ironic reasons, the best reasons. Bye, bye dearie' the calls ends and Lena sighs into her chair, dealing with demons was almost as bad as dealing with humans sometimes, but at least she could kill humans, killing a fellow Satan, that wasn't something she could do on a whim. Besides as much of a pain in the ass she is, she was also the reptid's oldest friend, and she had so few of those she wasn't going to throw it away just because she was a bit of a gossip and sneak.

TBC

LW: So that happened, Lena reminds everyone she's not human (mostly Alex) Lucy gets laid after (how long ago was Kara born?) many, many years, seeds of SuperCat and maybe even Sanvers (Is General Sanvers a thing?), Lena being overly protective and a couple other things. More stuff next time, maybe even plot related.

Translation is 'Come to me, oh Ancient One'

Alura's glamour is basically Lana Parilla, going for a theme here with OUAT and seeing as Astra's the older twin she got the older Mills, while Alura got Regina.

Maze is Mazikeen from Lucifer, which is based on the DC Sandman comic.

For the record I'm perfectly aware Lena is at times flighty, insane and more importantly OOC. That's because she isn't Lena Luthor, well not fully, she's a several millennia old demon who is insanely powerful and gets bored easy. She often does things simply to amuse herself or get a rise out of people, which in turn could do something that interests her. Also like I said she is possessive of things she deems hers… such as her 1st attempt at a family.
