Karamel a Kryptonian and a Daxamite
Chapter11: Gas
Kara
We made a plan that the Daxamite royal guard would take me to Cadmus' old facility as if he had captured me. He lead me to the Daxamite hideout. The surprised look on the Daxamite's faces as he lead me to a office that must have been Lillian's office he open the door to see Rhea looking over a data pad.
"Your highness we have just found this Kryptonian snooping around out side," the royal guard said making her look up from the data pad.
"Ahh Kryptonian I was wondering how long it would take you to try and get my son back," Rhea smirked. "So come on that what your plan to rescue him."
"I don't have a plan. I know he's better off with his family," I lied. "I came her to talk."
"About my son I gather you are wasting your time," Rhea laughed "Take her away put her in a sell."
We left the office, we head towards the cells were they held my father that was laced with Kryptonite. I knew that Mon El's parents would not have put him in a cell where people would find him. The guard lifted his gun, shooting the cameras that lead to a room at the back of the building.
"Come on we have to be quick," the royal guard said. He opened the door Mon El lay in cell he didn't look to good his shoulder looked worse he lay motionless.
"What they done to him?" I snapped to the royal guard. I half expected to see Mon El's eyes snap open when he heard my voice but he still lay motionless.
"I don't know, he was awake when I left to come to the DEO," the royal guard said quickly running to open the door to the cell. "We have to hurry up, there is still some lead in the wound that's why it's not healing."
"Get the car ready we are bringing Mon El out he not in a good way," I said though my ear piece. We picked him up half dragging his body. I used my X-ray vision to make sure that corridor was clear. We opened the back to the building, Winn and Guardian were there to take Mon El of us.
Winn rushed passed me and I turned back to see where he was going. I saw him standing near a small biometric hand scanner. It lit up as he raised his hand and covered it. It flashed once and then twice before turning red. A second later he was running back towards us as gas started to drift out from the vents all around the building. We didn't waste any time in leaving the area as the gas ran its course and knocked the Daxamites unconscious.
Thank Rao we made it…
Alex
I was already leaping out of the back of the jeep as we pulled up with Maggie right behind me. I could smell the gas from here though thankfully it only effected the Daxamites. I tightened my grip on my weapon, a small Glock pistol ready and loaded just in case any of the Daxamites were still conscious.
We approached the side entrance and readied ourselves. I quickly nodded to Maggie. A second later she nodded back before she pulled away from the wall and kicked the door down. I was through the door a moment later, my gun raised as my eyes scanned the room. It was a loading bay of some kind with several crates of alien design littering the area. Scattered around were the unconscious bodies of the Daxamites looking like they had just lain down for a nap in the middle of the day.
"Secure the building!" I yelled to the rest of the squad. They started to file in and spread out through the facility. "Let's find the control room."
"Lets go," Maggie smiled.
We made our way through the facility and found a few stragglers. It didn't take long to dispatch them with a quick punch to the head. Between the gas in the air and us getting the drop on them, the few Daxamites that were still conscious didn't stay that way for long. Finally after a half hour we made it to the control room.
There was only one body here…
King Lar Gand…
"There's no one else here," Maggie spoke up as she looked around the room. "Where's the queen?"
"I don't know," I replied. "Stay sharp."
"Yeah," Maggie agreed.
I walked over to the large computer terminal at the far side of the room and accessed the door controls for the facility. I quickly inserted the pen drive that Winn gave me into the terminal and it automatically opened all of the doors. I looked over at one of the screens and saw dozens of DEO personnel entering through the now open doors a moment later.
"That should do it," I sighed in relief that Winn's pen drive actually worked. If it hadn't then we would have had to use blast charges to open some of the doors and that would have been messy. "J'onn, we've secured the control room and the doors are open."
"Good, Agent Schott is on his way back now," J'onn responded over the comm. "Any sign of the King and Queen?"
"We've found Mon El's father in the control room," I answered. "We haven't see his mother yet though."
"Keep us posted," J'onn said before the comms went dead.
Maggie nodded at me as she raised her gun and headed for the doorway. I followed close behind with my own gun raised and together we helped scour the building for any Daxamites we migh have missed. Eventually Winn arrived and reactivated the portal.
"Are you sure that you have the right coordinates?" I asked him. "I don't fancy throwing them through the portal and them all dying because the other side of it leads to deep space."
"Yeah—I mean it's fine," Winn reassured us.
I simply nodded and motioned for several DEO agents to start throwing the unconscious Daxamites through the portal. I trust Winn's judgment when he said that the portal was safe. Two hours later the last of the Daxamites were sent through except Lar Gand and Winn closed the portal down.
It was over…
They were gone…
There was just one problem though…
Rhea's body wasn't among the number that was sent through…
"J'onn, can you hear me?" I asked as I looked around the control room.
"Loud and clear Alex," J'onn responded.
"There's no sign of the Queen anywhere," I reported. "She must have escaped."
"…I see," J'onn mused. "We'll find her."
We left the old Cadmus facility after cuffing Mon El's father and putting him into the back of the DEO van. We headed back to the DEO. We put Lar Gand who was still unconscious into a holding cell. I spoke to J'onn about setting up a search for Mon El's mother.
Mon el
The last thing I remember was lying on the floor of the cell, the pain in my shoulder was getting worse. The pain must of knock me unconscious because the next I know am waking up to be back in the DEO medical bay. I look around there is a chair placed beside my bed Kara is sat with her head in her hands.
"Am I in heaven?" I asked making Kara's head snap up she had tears running down her face.
"Not quite," she said trying to smile. "We managed to get you back to the DEO your shoulder's in a bad way."
"Hey what's the matter?" I asked the tears still running down her cheeks.
"I thought I had lost you. Your royal guard led me to you. You were laying motionless on the floor when we got there," Kara cried I moved along the bed and held up my good arm for her to come towards me she lay on the end of the bed cuddled into me.
"I'm a Daxamite I'm made of strong stuff," I tried to joke. Kara laughed a bit but her tears still kept coming. "Hey I'm here I'm not going anywhere."
Kara finally leaned up and give me a smile she closed the gap resting her forehead against mine smiling down at me. She placed a small kiss on my lips she went to move back. I placed my hand on her back, she couldn't this time I kissed her more deeply. The kiss was interrupted by Alex coming into the medical bay.
"Sorry I just wanted to let you know that we have your father in a holding cell," Alex told us. I was confused to where my mother was.
"What happened to my mother?" I asked.
"When we searched she was no where to be found we think she has escaped underground," Alex told us.
"Okay thanks Alex," I said.
"I will question King Lar Gard," Kara spoke from beside me. Alex nodded and left.
"Are you okay?" Kara asked me. I didn't know how to feel I thought my parents where dead then they arrived on earth.
"I just don't understand," I shake my head in confusion. "Why would they do all of this? For me? I just don't understand any of it."
" I think you should talk to your father," Kara told me with a smile.
