Hi guys!

So I'm sorry about the last update! This chapter was taking forever for me to write and I'm super upset that I couldn't get it to you guys sooner. As much as I am glad to give you this chapter, I do have some bad news. The chapter that will be based on Luthors won't be uploaded until sometime this coming week but certainly not on Monday. My plan was to originally have written the 'Luthors' chapter and upload it before the new episode this upcoming Monday before the next episode but there is a very big chance that that will not happen due to lack of time to write and wanting to give you the best content I can. Anyways, I'm nearly a 100% sure though that this fanfic will be fully running on its original plan by next weeks episode but until then, I hope you enjoy chapter 7 of Mon-El vs. Earth.


****I DONT OWN ANYTHING. ALL CHARACTERS, DIALOGUE, CREDITS AND BASICALLY EVERYTHING BELONG TO THE CW AND THE WRITERS OF SUPERGIRL****


Chapter 7: Supergirl Lives / I Exist, Supergirl Lives

Not long after the Medusa incident, Mon-El was able to find a job. A job that he in fact liked very much. It was his first day so he rushed out and got to work. He wasn't at the bar for long when someone said

"Excuse me? Oh, hi. Could I... Could I just please have a club soda?"

I recognize that voice anywhere. He thought as he popped up from behind the bar to see Kara and her oh so adorable face

"Hey." he said

"Hi."

"Hi."

"Do you work here?"

"I do. Yeah, you know after the, um... Gosh, after the incident, they were a little short-staffed, so I took a job." he replied "Mmm-hmm. And you know, I like alcohol. I've been known to like alcohol. So I just really feel like this is gonna be a great job for me."

"Well, I'm glad someone's feeling like they fit in somewhere." she said

Something's wrong.

"Oh, that's a sad sound? You wanna tell me what's going on? Huh? Come on, talk to me. I am a... a bartender now." he said as he poured her a glass of a bottle that he found earlier on the shelves

"I've just been feeling betwixt and between of late."

"Betwixt and between?"

"Yes. But, a story came across my desk today. A missing girl. I'm gonna find her." Kara said with determination

"Can I offer you some unsolicited advice?"

"Do I?"

"If you go looking for trouble... Trouble... Ye shall find."

"Thank you for the completely useless advice." she said taking a sip of her drink before spitting it back out "Mmm. That's not club soda."

"Yeah, what exactly is club soda?" Mon-El asked, picking up the drink and sniffing it "Not this." he said to himself, answering his own question.

The rest of the day went in a blur, people came in and went out. Half of the time, Mon-El was either pouring drinks or thinking of the blue eyed woman that had been haunting his thoughts lately, or sometimes he was doing both. By the time the bar closed, Mon-El was exhausted. Who knew pouring drinks would be such a hard task to do. When he arrived back to the DEO, his legs could barely hold him up and when he saw his bed, the Daxamite leaped for it and as soon as his head hit the soft pillow, the alien was out cold and drifting off to sleep.


The next morning, he woke up, the sun peeking through the windows of his room. As he sat up on his bed, he realized how heavy his arms felt, probably because of all the pouring he did the day before. Mon-El hopped out of his bed and went to his dresser, pulling out his outfit for the day. He quickly changed into the grey sweater and dark jeans and placed the glasses, that Kara had given him, onto the brink of his nose. After finishing, the Daxamite ultimately decided to call the bar and take a day off. It seemed fair to him. He had worked really hard and he thought he deserved a break for a bit. Deciding to go exploring for a bit, Mon-El ran out of the room grabbing a coat along the way out.

Mon-El had visited many places in National City, including its multiple parks, shops and bars. But because it was still day time and he didn't want to waste the entire day drinking, he didn't stay long for any drinks. The alien was just about to head back to the DEO when he had remembered that Kara was still at work and it was nearly lunch. Without a second thought, Mon-El rushed to Catco and ran into the building, catching the elevator.

"You would not believe the size of those mutton chops, it was..." He was talking to one of the other elevator passengers when he walked out into Kara's office, passing by her. She was concentrated on the piece of paper in her hand.

Man, she looked so cute when she was concentrating like that

"Hey, Kara. Hey... Um... Wait..."

"What are you doing here?"

"I took the day off."

"It's your second day."

"Yeah, didn't wanna overdo it. So lunch?"

"No, actually, I'm working."

"Oh, great. I'll come with you."

"I... I don't think so." she replied

"Oh, come on! Come on, it'll be fun. You wanna find that missing girl, right? Hey, two heads are always better than one, right? Except on the planet Barvex, because they have two-headed cannibals."

"Fine. Fine. Yes. Just keep your mouth shut."

Yes! I mean, it's not lunch but it's something right?

"Have I told you about the first time..." Mon-El started saying but Kara didn't really listen to him or his fascinating story. So instead, they stood in silence until the pain walked out of the building.


Mon-El and Kara were walking to some sort of medicine building while Kara explained the situation. She had explained how this 'blood work' place was the only connection she had between the missing persons victims and so that it was the clue they would have to where they went.

If you asked him, Mon-El didn't want to go but Kara was Kara... She was going to go there either way.

They arrived at their destination and stepped into the small office. It didn't look very suspicious, honestly, it could have passed for any other hospital or clinic around. The two of them found a seat and Mon-El picked up a magazine from the basket next to his chair, flipping through the pages.

"Question, do you think I'm more of a Goofus, or more of a Gallant?"

"Goofus." Kara answered immediately

Wow thanks Kara...

"Well, well, well, well, well. Hello." a man said as he emerged from behind a door, wearing a long white coat.

"Hi." Kara said with a warm smile plastered on her face as they both stood from their seats

"Hello."

"They told me two strapping young millennials had dropped by, and here you are."

"Yes, we, uh, we work out a lot." he said awkwardly

"Yeah, we just wanted to, uh, get a better idea of what you do here before jumping in. We looked at your website, it just said you can make some quick cash." Kara explained with a much better story than his

"Yeah, and we're trying to save up for a trip to Paris city." he said

"It's just Paris." Kara muttered, correcting him from his mistake

"Paris."

"Well, we're running a clinical trial on a new-to-market supplement."

"Oh!"

"We're just looking to examine the effect of the supplement on base metabolic rates. So, all we need to do is some blood work, and we'll have you in and out, and off to Paris city in no time." the doctor said

"Sure" Mon-El said before Kara interrupted him

"Um, well, actually, we can't give blood. That is... That's against our religion."

"Yes. Yes, we are very religious. Very into our gods." Mon-El said hoping that this comment would cover up the last

"God." Kara corrected him

"One God. We are madly monotheistic." Mon-El replied quickly

Why Earth is such a confusing planet?

"Well, you both look young and healthy enough. Let's give it the old college try, shall we?" the doctor said as he lead the pair along a hallway and through a door, which lead to a large garage space. "How did you hear about our study? We have a recruiter, but she didn't tell me to expect anyone today."

"Well, actually, a friend of mine told us about it. It's weird, I haven't heard from her since she came here." Kara answered

"You, stand here." the doctor said to Kara pointing to a spot on the ground

"Okay."

"And you... Stand here." he said to Mon-El directing him to his spot

"Well, maybe you remember her. Izzy Williams?" Kara asked

"Yeah, she did come through here." the doctor said before pulling off a large tarp to show a large machine.

I don't think that's used for blood work...

"What is that?" Mon-El asked

The doctor pressed a couple buttons on a keypad and the machine whirred, blinding the Daxamite for a moment with the bright purple glow that came from it.

"You said you wanted to travel." the doctor said as his face morphed to show one of an alien.

Oh damn it

Two henchmen came up to them and grabbed them but the one who was supposed to be focused on Mon-El, lost his concentration and the Daxamite saw it as the perfect opportunity to punch him. Kara had already beaten the other henchman, but by the time they were done, the doctor had already escaping, running through the portal.

"Go back to the DEO." Kara ordered as she started removing her clothes to reveal her suit underneath it

Do most people do that? Wear an entire outfit under their clothes?

"I just..."

"Tell Alex what happened and make sure a strike team follows me. I'm going in there." she said throwing her clothes at him

"Right, um... We don't know what's on the other side." Mon-El said, catching her clothes and glasses

"Izzy's on the other side and that's all that matters." Kara said before running through the portal

"Wait, no..." Mon-El said but it was too late, she had already disappeared.

Now I have to go after her don't I? Yeah I do... Damn it, why do I have to have feelings?

Mon-El dropped the clothing that Kara had thrown to him and ran through the purple portal as well. It must have been perfect timing because when he arrived, an alien was pointing a gun and the caped girl. Quickly, Mon-El tackled it to the ground and punched it out.

"What're you doing here?"

"Uh, I thought you might need my help. Hey, you're bleeding." he said noticing the red liquid dripping down her hand

That's not right

"That is a red sun." Kara said pointing to the large red circle hovering in the sky, which casted a red glow on everything they saw

"Like on Krypton and Daxam."

"And we get our powers from the radiation of a yellow sun, so that means..."

"No powers."

"No powers." Kara repeated

"We need to get out of here." Mon-El said walking up to the portal but when he was only a foot away, it immediately closed "Well, now who's gonna help us?"

Crap, we're really on their own now.

Mon-El walked up to the keypad next to the machine and began to try to punch in some codes to get the portal to open.

"We have to get it to work. Nobody knows we're here!" Mon-El exclaimed

"That's why I told you to get my sister."

Mon-El was just about to lose it but luckily, he contained his anger

"You know what? It doesn't matter who's to blame. We just need to get back to Earth."

"Aliens brought those people to this planet, and we're gonna find out why and save them." Kara determinedly said

"Um, could you maybe just think about saving us for a second?"

"No one told you to come here. In fact, I specifically told you to not come."

"Okay, and let's say we do find them. The portal is closed."

"We'll figure something out." Kara said but they were interrupted by whirring in the distance

"What's that?"

"Sounds like a short-range shuttle. That's a troop transport. Where is it going?" he said

"It's probably headed there." Kara said motioning to a large scary looking building

"Yeah, so we're going..."

"After it." Kara finished his sentence

"No. No, No, No. We are going away from Murder Castle because we don't have our powers anymore." Mon-El objected. He didn't feel comfortable in letting himself walt right into a death trap

"And?" Kara said, already walking towards the building

"Right. All right." Mon-El said because for him, walking into a death trap with someone was better walking alone.

They had walked for what seemed like hours and Mon-El finally decided to start a conversation

"You know how on Earth they rate everything? One-star. This is a one-star." he said as they continued walking

"I used to love going to other planets with my parents. They'd take me to the pretty ones, though. Not like this. We'd spend solstices on Sedenach..."

"Oh, yeah. The Bismuth mountains?"

"Yeah. Yeah, they'd grow right underneath our feet."

"Yeah." he replied. He liked talking to Kara, a lot. He never felt like he could take to someone about anything until he met her.

"It's all those crystal staircases raising us up."

Took a girl there once. It's a great spot, you know..." he said with a step but something took hold of his foot. He looked down at the small contraption that hid his foot. "Uh, Kara?"

"What?" Kara said as she turned around to face him "Oh, come on, now you won't follow me?"

"Um, I can't. My leg is stuck." Mon-El replied

"What is this?" Kara said approaching him and crouching to the ground to examine the trap "What..."

Suddenly, both of them swivelled their heads around as a bullet ricocheted to reveal another alien pointing a gun in their direction. They put their hands up signalling surrender as Mon-El said

"This planet sucks."


The alien had taken them to his tent where they simply sat near a fire that was cooking the alien's dinner. They were tied or chained, so they could've run away but Mon-El knew that another not so friendly alien would just end up finding them and doing worse things to them.

"It's Thanagarian snarebeast. And we're the next course." Mon-El said looking at the little creature being cooked over the fire

"Jo Gunraf does not eat bipeds." the alien said

"So you speak English?" Mon-El said shocked

"Oh, yes. Jo dissected a human once."

"Of course he did." the Daxamite muttered

"Learned your tongue. Hideous pink thing."

"Eh, Jo... Jo, is it? We promise, we are not here to hurt you. We just... We want to help this girl." Kara said showing Jo a picture of Izzy.

Jo grabbed the piece of paper and looked at it before saying "They brought her through portal. They took her to the Red Fortress where they sell carbon forms like you. Sell them like animals."

"They've been kidnapping those people and selling them as slaves." Kara said

"Slaving is a big business on Maaldoria." Jo said

"Wait, this is Maaldoria?" Mon-El said

Oh this isn't going to end well for any of us.

"You know where we are?" Kara asked him

"The locals call it Slavers' Moon. The royal family on Daxam used to buy their slaves here."

"I forgot they had slavery on Daxam." Kara said disapprovingly

"There were a lot of things there I didn't agree with. We have to leave."

"No."

"We have to."

"No, we have to find the people we came here for." Kara strongly objected

"No finding girl. Fortress bad. Many weapons. No way out. No way in..." Jo warned them

"There is one way." Kara said

Oh no. This isn't going to be good

The next thing Mon-El knows is that he's walking into the castle with Kara and several guards pointing guns at their backs

"We surrender." Kara said as they entered the main hall

Not long after their entrance, the doctor entered the room and escorted them down a long hallway. The place was huge. Much bigger than the DEO and definitely a lot more terrifying. Mon-El slowed down his pace to look around but the guard behind him growled and poked him with the end of his gun

"Yeah, yeah. I got it."

"Hey."

"Okay, yes." Mon-El said as they were being pushed into their cell. "At least we got them right where we want them."

"Izzy? Are you Izzy Williams?" Kara asked a girl with blonde hair hiding in the corner

"Supergirl, you... you know who I am?" the girl asked as she stepped forward

"Your mother is looking for you." Kara assured her

"You know my mother?"

"Uh... A friend of mine is a reporter and... Your mother persuaded her to find out what happened to you. And she told me, that's why I'm here." Kara explained

"You can save us. You can just knock down the walls." the girl exclaimed with hope and relief

"You're gonna get us all home!" another boy said

"I can't. I don't have my powers on this planet. But I will help you. All of you. I promise." Kara said to the group of prisoners

"Supergirl in my cage again." a woman said from beyond the shield, separating them and the woman that stood in front of them

"Roulette?"

Who the heck is Roulette?

"We have got to stop meeting like this." the woman said "Well, if this isn't deja vu."

"Why are you here?"

"Yeah. Wait, who is this?" Mon-El stepped in

"I'm here because of you. You dismantled my club. I had nowhere else to go. So imagine my excitement when one of my fighters told me about Slavers' Moon. I jumped at the opportunity to help expand its market."

"You are treating this like... Like you're selling coffee! You are selling people!"Kara shouted

"I've taken human trafficking to the next level. These are prime specimens that can survive a lifetime of labor. They're good stock. And they'll sell for top dollar."

"It's blood money."

"Blood diamonds, actually. This planet's lousy with them. They're like dirt to these Maaldorians."

"Oh, man, I hate these guys."

The alien behind Roulette spoke a foreign language before Roulette continued talking.

"Good news, everybody. You've all been sold." Roulette said and everyone gasped, some cried. They were about to have their entire lives taken away from them.

"Okay, listen. I know that you're all scared. But we're going to find a way out of here. Don't worry."

"Psst!" Mon-El whispered to Kara

"Did you just 'Psst'?" Kara asked

"Yeah. Come here." he replied "So, we're stuck in the most dangerous planet in the galaxy. We don't have our powers, and you're optimistic how?"

"Because they need us to be." Kara answered simply

"See, this is what I've been telling you. Kara, you know, if you go looking for trouble, you will always find it. And you do. You're like the winner at it."

"That's what heroes do. They fight. They don't sit and hide in a bar because it's easier than getting involved."

"I'm not hiding, I'm being smart. It's a dangerous universe." he defended himself "And why do you have to be the one who saves everyone every time?"

"Because our worlds may have been destroyed, but we were spared for a reason."

"Ah, luck."

"I refuse to believe that. I believe you keep fighting... Whether you're stuck on another world, whether or not you have your powers, you never give in. That's the difference between you and me." Kara said to him

"It's time to go, Earthlings." the doctor said, lowering the shield but Kara stood between them and the humans behind her

"Move." the doctor ordered

"No." Kara said raising her arms, blocking them. the doctor motioned for the guards to attack her and that's what they did. They began to electrocute her with their guns as she screamed in pain and fell to the floor

"Hey, hey." Mon-El yelled. He couldn't stand watching them hurt her.

Kara got back up to her feet to block them once more.

She sure is brave...

"Move!" the doctor ordered again

"No." she answered but the guards shocked her once again

"Hit her again." and the guards continued to shock her. Kara's screams growing louder and louder.

It was the worst feeling he had ever heard. Her screams ringing in his ears as he watched them torture her

"Let's go!" Izzy said to the others as they all began to attack the guards

Once they had defeated them, Izzy pulled Kara up from the ground

"You didn't give up, so neither will we."

"Thank you. Let's get them in the cell." Kara said

"And you can stand right there." Mon-El said, quoting the doctor, as he motioned at the spot behind the shielded cell.

"Well, now what?" Izzy asked

"Now we get the hell out of here. Go, go." Kara answered as they ran from out of the room, looking for an exit.


They ran through several hallways before finally realizing that they were doing something right. Many guards had spotted them and began chasing them.

"Hey, give me that. Give me that. Go, go." as he took a man gave him a gun

One of the guards appeared and he shot him before running after the others

"Through here. Through here. Go, go, go. Move, move, move! Come on, we gotta hurry. Through here. This way. Come on, go, go. Hurry. Make it through. Come on. Let's go, let's go. Hurry, come on, come on." Kara was yelling to the rest of the group, guiding them to safety.

Mon-El had kept on shooting until one guard managed to shoot the gun out of his hands. The guard was ready to shoot him but then he pointed his gun at Kara.

Mon-El refused to let anyone hurt Kara so he stood up blocking Kara. The alien was on the verge of pulling the trigger but the alien from before stopped him and bowed to the Daxamite. Taking it as a once in lifetime opportunity, Mon-El stood up and ran with the others.

"Move, move! Come on, run! Go, go. Let's hurry." Kara shouted "What were you doing?"

But Mon-El ignored her comment as they continued running into another room. A group of people in black suits approached them and he instantly recognized them as DEO agents and saw Alex in the crowd.

"Hey, we know her."

"You found us?" Kara asked as her sister gave her a hug

"Always. We gotta hurry up. Winn's waiting for us." Alex said quickly as they ran along

"Wait. You brought Winn to space?" Kara asked surprised

Alex was about to answer her sisters question but they knew they only had seconds before they would all be caught. So they ran until they found the exit and even then they continued to run.

Finally, they had arrived at the portal as Winn stood there with his arms stretched out wide \

"Winn!" Kara yelled running

"Supergirl! Look, I'm a badass!" Winn yelled back

"Start the car! Start the car!" Mon-El shouted "Go, go, go, go, go."

"Go, go."

"Go."

"Come on."

"In the portal. Go. Go." he said to the remaining humans

Suddenly a blast came from behind Mon-El and Alex and they turned around

"Jo help carbon forms. Carbon forms get Jo off planet forever?" Jo asked

"Yes, yes, and carbon forms agree. Just go."

"Hello. Hello." Jo said nodding to the Daxamite and Alex

"Winn, that is a big spaceship. Go." Kara said looking at the gigantic air craft above them

"Oh..."

"Crap." Mon-El finished for Alex

"Supergirl! Please help!" Izzy screamed as an alien was dragging her away

"Izzy!" Kara yelled as she ran to the girl

"No, no, wait." Mon-El shouted.

"Let's hope this thing works." Alex said fidgeting with a tiny machine and then throwing it up into the air, creating a bright yellow explosion. Suddenly, Kara was flying once again and her powers had returned.

"What was that?"

"It's a yellow sun grenade. Little taste of home." Alex said as Kara tested out her returning powers by using her heat vision to break the ship

"Nice!"

The alien that was holding Izzy captive let her go and ran off as Kara directed her to the portal

"Let's go. Go, go, go! Go through." as the rest of them stepped through the portal.

As soon as kara passed through the portal she destroyed the keypad using her heat vision and frying its circuits.

"We did it." Mon-El exclaimed in joy as everyone applauded

"Oh, I'm so glad you're okay." Kara said hugging Izzy and stepping back to her sister "Hey, thanks for the recharge."

"No, it was all this guy's idea." Alex pointed to J'onn

"I couldn't make the trip myself, so I thought I'd send a little sun along. Welcome home, Supergirl."

"Thanks, J'onn." Kara replied as she gave the man a hug as well.

"Earth smells funny. Always smell like this?" Jo said as they all erupted in laughter.

It had been a long day, so they all agreed to celebrate their victory another time and return home and get some rest. As he lay in his bed, Mon-El thought about things. Kara. Himself. And most importantly what he wanted to do with his life on Earth. Certainly, he didn't just want to be a bartender. He had heard a quote that said 'To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that's all'. He knew that Kara was living but he was not and Mon-El didn't want that anymore. It was in that moment that he made the most important decision of his life.


The next day, Mon-El had returned back to work as he tried to make up for the days he had missed due to being on Maaldoria. He hadn't seen Kara all day and had then decided to pay her a visit and tell her about his decision.

On the way to her apartment, Mon-El stopped at a store to pick up a bottle of what he was now sure was Club Soda, mainly due to the fact that it said 'Club Soda' on the label. After he paid for the beverage, he hastily made his way to Kara's apartment. When he reached her door, he knocked hoping that she was still awake. The door quickly swung open and there she stood, the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.

"Hi." she said upon seeing him

"Club soda?" he replied

"I see, thank you." Kara said as she took the bottle from his hand

"I found it."

"You look cozy and comfortable." Mon-El said noticing her comfortable sleep wear

"Well, I am."

"So you still feeling betwixt and between?"

"No, no, I feel amazing."

"Good, good."

"So what brings you by?"

"Oh, you know, some shopping... A little evening stroll. No, I, um... There we are." he said as they sat on her couch and he pulled the edges of the blanket over his legs "I was wrong. That's what I wanted to..."

"About? Because the list of things you were wrong about is, is, it's long."

"Yes, long list. Um, I... About getting involved. And then I saw you with those people and... There wasn't much to inspire me on Daxam."

"What about the Prince? He wasn't worth admiring. But I wanna be. So that's the next thing. I've made a decision..."

"Sounds decisive."

"It's very decisive." Mon-El replied pausing for a moment "I wanna be a superhero."

"Say what?"

"Like you. With a name and an outfit, maybe a cape."

"You want the suit."

"No. No. I mean, yes. I want the suit, but no, no, I wanna... I wanna get my hands dirty, you know, like... I wanna do something."

"You're serious?"

"Yeah."

"If you take this road, easy is over."

"Well, I don't want easy."

"Cape can get heavy sometime."

"I want a heavy cape." he replied, not taking any form objections an answer

"Come on."

"I wanna help you keep the world spinning. To prove that I was spared for a reason."

"You're gonna have to listen to me..."

Oh yeah. That I will... Whatever it'll be worth it

"Pfft. I will listen to you. I will, I will. This time I will." he said confidently

"Well, you got me something, it's funny. I got you something, too." Kara said

"You got me something?"

"Yes." Kara replied as she snatched a little brown bag, pulled out a magazine and handed it to Mon-El

"What's that? Wow! For me?" he said laughing at the gift

"Mmm-hmm!"

"My very own?"

"Mmm-hmm."

"Can I ask why?"

"Yesterday, you were a little less Goofus, and a little more Gallant." Kara explained a wide smile on her face.

"You noticed? I'll take it." Mon-El said as they did what she called a 'fist bump'. Never in a lifetime, had Mon-El felt so at ease. Sitting next to the girl of his dreams, talking and eventually working together. Earth was just starting to feel like home now.


That's it! I really hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. It took me forever to write but I really liked it. To those of you who are wondering, I will be sticking with this fanfic for some time now and if I were to fall away, I would always let you guys know before hand.
