Chapter 5 Training

Kara

I flew onto the balcony of the DEO the next morning. It was eight o'clock and Mon El was not there waiting for me. I headed straight to his room and heard a voice coming from the other side.

"Going to enjoy watch him get all sweaty," I turned to see Alex laugh and raise her eyebrow at me.

"I don't think aliens sweat," I reply I keep on walking I get to his room I knock on the door still getting no answer. I knock again then open the door with a little too much strength, taking the door off its hinges. I put the door down against the wall.

"First day of training your late," I shouted making him jump awake.

"What happened to my door?" he asked.

"I don't know it fell off," I said as I walked back out. "I will meet you in five minutes," I make my way down to the training room and gym.

"You're late again, I said five minutes," I said without turning to see him at the door.

"I got lost," Mon El said.

"So did my cousin teach you fight?" I asked him.

"Yes the basics," Mon El said.

"Right come at me," I said .

For a moment he hesitated before charging at me, moving faster than anyone I'd seen before, easily rivaling Non whom I'd fought last year. The punch came at my face faster than I would normally be able to react if I hadn't been expecting it.

He was fast…

I was faster…

With inhuman speed I moved, my arm snaking round and blocking his punch to the side, opening up his guard enough for me to step to the side and deliver a punch of my own. It didn't connect, instead meeting nothing but empty air as Mon El threw himself to the side.

I pursued him as he rolled across the floor and climbed back to his feet. My foot came up, thrusting out catching Mon El in the chest, hurling him back and into the wall.

"Damn…okay…that hurt," Mon El grunted as he pushed himself out of the hole in the wall his body had made. "You're faster than your cousin."

He'd sparred with Superman before, repeatedly, and if he were to compare Supergirl's fighting style compared to his it would be like night and day. Superman's entire fighting style was based around his superior strength and experience while Supergirl's was based around speed and power. He needed to be faster, a lot faster, he thought as he pushed himself. Or did he? What was it that Superman told him when he was training him?

If you encounter an opponent who was stronger and faster than you, think before you fight.

The words echoed through his mind as he narrowed his eyes, his focus solely on the blond hero in front of him. Clenching his fists, he breathed slowly and took a fighting stance. After three seconds without any movement from Mon El, I flew right at him and threw punch at his face. For a moment I thought that I had him dead to rights with his back against the wall however that changed after a moment.

He shifted his weight and turned, his left hand coming up and crossing his body to grab my wrist. He continued turning and his right hand came up to backhand me across the side of the head.

I staggered back stunned and was unable to guard from the follow-up kick from Mon El that sent me into the far wall on the other side of the room. This time it was my turn to be surprised by my opponent's fighting style.

"You…" I trailed off surprised.

"I sparred with Superman, he taught me a lot," Mon El told me I didn't expect him to be that strong.

"I can tell that you are strong," I said. I have fought many people but unless they had Kryptonite I had never feel so challenged. I sat down on the floor.

"Have I worn you out Krypton?" he laughed as he stood over me.

"Not a change Daxamite" I said I held my hand out for him to help me up. Just as he was about pull me up I pulled him down. He ended up face down on the ground. He turned on his back and laughed

"Is that because I beat you up?" he asked we end up staring at each other. He didn't look like that cocky daxamite that I meet In the bar. I don't know what it was about him but he seemed different. Alex came running into the training room

"Sorry am I interrupting something?" we both drop our gaze between each other and shake our heads. "You're needed Supergirl, it's a car chase. I get up and run straight out flying toward the car chase.

Mon El

I get up thought with Kara gone I can feel Alex staring me

"Promise me one thing Mon El, don't hurt her she been though a lot," Alex said.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Just…don't hurt her," Alex said before walking away.

I stare after her for a minute, confused at her words and what she meant. Was she talking about Kara? Hurt her? How could I hurt her? She was strong, stronger than me, at least physically. Did she mean what I thought she meant? I think she's beautiful yes but could it even work between us? I mean she's a Kryptonian and I'm a Daxamite, our planets never got along at the best of times.

I head back to my room my door has been put back on I get some more clothes I head for the shower rooms. I shower and change I head back to my room. Kara is stood at my door about knock.

"Don't break my door this time," I said making her jump.

"No promises," Kara said laughing. " I came to see if you want to go for some lunch."

"Like a date?" I asked surprised.

"No….of course not, just two friends going to for lunch what do you say ," she said stuttering.

"I wont refuse food," I said we head to the front of the DEO. We jumped and flew, landing out the sight of people. Kara leads us to a café called Noonans . We take a seat at a table, order food and drink

"Nice place this is," I said I could tell it was nothing like the alien bar from the looks of every one there was not alien in sight.

"I used to come here for my old bosses orders," Kara told me.

"Where did you used to work," I asked.

"I used to be a reporter at Catco," she told me.

"Your cousin is a reporter as well isn't he? What happened?" I asked.

"The editor in charge, Snapper didn't like me so he got rid of me," Kara explained and I couldn't understand why he didn't like her.

"Well its his loss," I told her. I could tell she still wanted to have the job but if this 'Snapper' dude wasn't going appreciate her then he's a fool.

"I know but I loved that job," she said pouting. She looked so cute when she pouts.

"Can't you just go to another news agency?" I suggested.

"It just wouldn't be the same I loved working for my boss but she left," Kara sighed.

"…So anyway, what do you do for fun on this planet?" I asked trying to change the subject.

"Well there's sports and the stuff on TV plus people find dating fun." Kara explained

"Dating? What's that?" I asked confused I had never heard the word dating before.

"Ahhh….its hard to explain, the closest reference for a Daxamite is mating," Kara struggled to explain to him.

"Mating huh? Is that why Alex said for me not to hurt you?" I asked not thing much of my question

"Alex … what did she say?" Kara asked

"After training, after you left she said for me to promise not to hurt you. At first I could not understand what she meant because we had just been sparring and of course there was change I could hurt you but I don't think she was talking about me hurting you like that," I explained.

"Ah Alex she's all way butting in, just ignore her," kara said trying to laugh it off.
