Inspired by and based on the fan film "Confessions of a Teenage Supergirl" at and the DC Comics owned characters.

Episode 1:A Not So Enchanted Evening

It hasn't been the best 24 hours for Kara. As Supergirl she had to watch her childhood hero sacri.fice himself to save her from a mysterious entity that's been haunting her dreams for weeks. As Linda Danvers she had to leave her date Rick Malverne alone in a restaurant. Rick now doesn't even want to talk to her. She understands of course how he feels but that didn't make it hurt any less. She really likes Rick and his words and actions cut straight to her soul, which unlike her body is quite vulnerable. She sat at the desk in her dorm room at Garrett Hall and thought to herself "How does Kal-El do it?"No time to ponder that though, as she had classes to get to.

Rick was talking with a few classmates. Linda tried to approach him to talk to him. Before she could even get a "Hi Rick." out of her mouth, Rick had already walked away. "Smooth, Linda. Real Smooth." she said to herself .Sometimes she really hated being Linda Danvers. As she started to walk away herself a young woman came up to her. She said "Excuse me, are you Linda Danvers?" "Yes, that's me. Do I know you?"Linda said. The woman said "My name is Julie Moone. I have a few classes with you. I was wondering if you would like to come to a little get-together tonight. Say around 8 o'clock" Linda asked "What kind of get-together is it?" Julie said "Just a place where smart young ladies like yourself can socialize with others like yourself. No boys allowed however."Linda was actually relieved to hear that part so she accepted the invitation.

Later that day, at STAR Labs Midvale, Supergirl is helping Dr. Thorne with an experiment that needs her special talents. After they are finished, they begin to talk casually.

"So things haven't improved with your young male acquaintance ?"asked Dr. Thorne.

"No, he still isn't speaking to...my other identity. The truth is I'm not sure that I can blame him. After all I basically stood him up. He has every right to be mad."

"You left him to stop the hostage situation at the TV station. I think that's a pretty good reason."

"Sure, for Supergirl it's a great reason. The problem is he's not dating Supergirl. He's dating ...I'm not even sure anymore!"

"Perhaps that's part of the problem. Maybe you should try to give Supergirl a night off. You were invited to this party, right?"

"Yeah, a classmate is sort of having a girls night. I guess it's sort of a social club of sorts."

So go. Enjoy yourself. Don't worry about saving the world for a night and let yourself have some fun."

"Sounds like a plan."she said. She also thought to herself how it wold distract her from thinking about Rick.

At an old fashioned house just off-campus, Julie walked into her bedroom and stood in front of a mirror on the wall. After a wave of her hands, a mysterious figure in an emerald cloak appeared in it.

"All is nearly prepared ,powerful one. I await your orders."Julie said.

"Excellent, my enchantress. You shall have power beyond your imagination. All I require is a sacrifice ."said the ominous figure.

"And you shall have it, I promise."

On a table in the main room laid an unconscious young man. Specifically Rick Malverne ! Julie covered him with a black blanket and prepared for the night's ceremonies.
