After an hour or so, Overgirl has become worried and flies high over the arena looking for Supergirl. She listens for her heartbeat. She clearly hears it, knowing her lover has been captured again. She hones in on the heartbeat.
The Legion ship is nearing the planet now.
Kara is being kept unconscious with the sound grenade; she had been tortured half an hour ago with the shock gun to give the location of Overgirl. She is being dragged out on Kryptonite laced chains, arms apart, head down and sporting a busted lip for talking back to Routlette.
Still in her suit, the chains are attached to the arena walls. Anyone from above can see her and that there is more than double the guards on the premises. The doors have the sound emitters in place ready to catch Overgirl.
Roulette pulls out her phone and does a video call for Lena and makes it so Supergirl is the first thing she sees.
"Veronica! I did not say I would pay ransom for a tortured Supergirl! Let her go now!" Lena demanded at once.
Roulette sighs, "I'm sorry but... she wouldn't coperate and she is only subdued for her own protection. She and her twin have cost the arena I work with a great deal... it was," she trails off, "out of my hands," she turns the phone around and makes it easier for Lena to see Supergirl. Lifting the younger woman's face so she can see is that Kara is pale from her ordeal, and that she's also lost some weight due to not eating nearly as much as she needs to. Her lip has some blood that trickled down that has dried but she knows it happened recently or it would have been licked.
"She's in one piece," she assures.
"Let her go!" Lena demanded through gritted teeth. "I heard her screaming! Let her go right now! I will pay you. Where is her twin?"
Roulette shrugs, "I have no idea, I'll turn off the sound grenade, I don't have keys to the cuffs but you can ask Kara yourself."
"What do you mean you don't have keys to her cuffs!" Lena asked angrily.
The Legion ship is hovering over the arena, zooming in on the place they see Supergirl in chains with her head down and Veronica holding a small device to her face. "We are going down there now!" Alex says as she grabs up her special gun, Oliver picks up his quiver full of arrows and special arrows, Mon-El and Imra opening the door as their pilot brings the ship over the large landing pad.
Alex taking the lead while Brainiac starts shooting the ships guns at other ships that are unloading more soldiers. They approach the main door and watch as it swings open with four guards for Alex to shoot them with her gun. Taking down sound weapons from the door frames as they file in, it's a bit of a maze.
"Let's split up, Oliver you're with me," Alex orders and he follows next to her going straight down the hallway and he takes down two guards with his arrows in the neck. Their armour covering their chest looks to be something special, but it thankfully leaves their neck exposed.
Turning to look down a hallway on her left, Alex watches as a set of guards come pouring out of a few different cells and Oliver sees the same down the hallway on his right. Going down to one knee Alex shoots each of them and Oliver nails all four at the same time with an arrow to each neck.
Looking back down the hall they were headed down Oliver sees five guards lift their weapons; he glances at Alex to see she has just shot her last guard down. He wraps his arm around her waist and yanks her to the hallway wall she was facing, pinning her to it just in case just as a series of plasma blasts are sent where they were just standing. Glancing down at her as he can see she is frustrated, with him or the situation he doesn't know, "sorry," he mutters while taking a grenade off his hip and tossing it around the corner.
Mon-El and Imra as Saturn Girl hear the bang as they reach an armoury and a food cellar at the end of their hallways. Saturn Girl sends a couple of guard's guns straight up to slam into their own foreheads with her powers.
A whip wraps around Mon-El's left arm, looking at the masked torturer as the guy pulls hard, Mon-El doesn't budge, in retaliation Mon-El yanks hard sending the man into him and he swings his right fist into the guys chin. He falls onto his back instantly, out cold, he turns to see Saturn Girl give a high kick next to a guard's head, she grins at him as he knocks down her leg and she spins around to duck from him lifting his rifle. When he aims his gun down she grabs his hand with the trigger finger and then his lower ribs with his momentum and sends him up and over her body to hit the wall directly behind her. Turning around quickly she watches as Mon-El slams the heel of his foot into his chest.
"Where's Kara Zor-El?" He demands angrily, in the corner of his eye watching Saturn Girl move to his side.
"Arena," the guard manages to choke out as he grabs for Mon-El's foot, but Mon-El yanks his helmet off and punches him out.
"Duck!" Oliver shouts and Alex looks at him and bends forward for him to shoot a guard with a spear that looks to have a plasma rifle on the end at the end of the hallway. He fires an arrow while hearing footsteps approach him quickly from behind. As soon as he has let the arrow fly he sees the look in Alex's eyes and ducks down as she had a moment earlier.
Alex rushes to him and hops up to roll over his back and swing both legs around the first guard's neck, quickly manoeuvring to be on his shoulders while Oliver stands back up immediately to use his bow and slip the second guards head threw it to slam his face into the nearby wall. Alex uses the momentum and flips him onto his stomach before using her legs to snap his neck.
Pulling the guard back, Oliver slams his knee into the middle of his spine and then brings the cord of his bow up to the guy's throat, pinning him against himself.
Taking advantage, Alex gets into his face, "Where are the two Supers?" She demands and the guard is struggling to get air into his lungs, but Oliver isn't going to let up. "Where!"
"Supergirl's in Arena!" he finally gasps, Alex punches him hard in the Adam's apple for Oliver to finally release him before snapping his neck.
Running into Mon-El and Saturn Girl they storm into the Arena to see the walls are nearly fully lined with guards, Supergirl and Veronica are in the middle.
Veronica picks up the grenade at her feet and turns it off, Supergirl is still unconscious. "Hmmm is 25 minutes with this thing too much?" she wonders.
Alex shot guards left and right with her alien gun, Oliver backing her up while Mon-El takes to the sky to start knocking down guards on the right. Saturn Girl spots a length of chin on the side and decides to use it to tie up a group of guards on the left before whipping them into the opposite wall.
There's Roulette and Alex levels her gun on her. "All I need is to pull the trigger, and you are instantly fried Veronica." She stated ready to shoot. She saw the unconscious Supergirl and she was very angry.
Oliver starts shooting three guards at a time with his arrows and then yanks Alex to the side when a group of 20 fire all in their direction. "We're not supers!" He reminds her.
"I never said we were!" She snarled about to fire on Sinclaire.
Oliver rolls his eyes, "going in just shooting is a great way to be shot at without cover!"
Overgirl flew in and pulled Kara loose of the chains. She saw she had the collar on and pulled very hard on that too. She managed to free her but saw once again she was shocked hard by the collar. She heat visioned every guard in the arena. Frying them all.
"I am glad you are here, but let's get out of here while we can!" She told them all holding her precious lover in her arms. She worried about how much her heart was now compromised by her twin.
Oliver races over to his wife, "Brainy is handling the ships, are you okay?" He holds her face in his hands.
"Mon-El! More ships are inbound, I can't keep them off and according to my scanner, it looks like a lot more soldiers are coming in!" Brainiac informs over their headsets.
"I'm fine, I need to get Kara to Brainiac and get her well again."
"Wait! I am supposed to get ransom money for them!" Veronica screamed at the departing figures headed back to the ship.
Alex stopped while the others headed back to the ship. She confronted Roulette. Grabbing hold of her dress with her good hand, she threw her to the ground and punched her hard in the face, splitting her lip.
"You are lucky I don't just shoot your ass! If you ever come near my sister or her twin again you will be dead!" She kicked her hard in the ribs, knowing she broke them, and walks back to the ship.
Back on the ship- Alex entered the infirmary with Kara Queen, Oliver and Mon El standing anxiously waiting for an update.
"How is she?" Kara asked Hamilton.
"She's hurt. We are assessing her now." She told them all.
Kara Queen had tears freely falling down her cheeks. "I shouldn't have waited so long..."
Oliver places his hands onto her shoulders and turns his wife gently to face him, "hey, how about we get you food and you can fill us in, okay?" He strokes each of her cheeks with a thumb to wipe away the tears.
She shook her head. "I am waiting for her. I am not leaving her." She sat down in the infirmary and waited for her to awaken.
He looks into her eyes, "she's going to be okay, your both safe and sound now." He pulls her into him and hugs her tightly, "I've been so worried about you since we saw the footage."
"Yeah it wasn't fun," she agreed, still sitting waiting.
Dr. Hamilton examines her neck and starts to look under her suit, "I need to remove her suit... please, Kara Queen, I will call you when I have results or if she awakens, whichever comes first."
Kara wanted to say it didn't matter as they were lovers, but realized she couldn't and walked up and left. She was very angry at herself for not being alarmed sooner and going after her.
Dr. Hamilton ushers Mon-El out as well and Oliver follows after his wife. "Hey, can we talk?" He asks concerned.
She realized she had never been on this ship and walked the hall way lost.
Dr. Hamilton removes Kara's suit carefully and sees the spots where the shock gun was pressed into her. Examining her torso, it is minor burning, unless looking closely it is barely noticeable.
Going to her recorder she starts to dictate, "Supergirl has had the shock gun used on her. However, it doesn't seem to have burned her very much, markings suggest a few shocks were done for short periods of time to her torso."
She checks her back and sees lines left behind from the whipping. Running her fingers along the markings to ensure no bumps are left to indicate anything deep stuck under the skin. She frowns and knows Alex will want to know her findings.
Grabbing the recorder as she goes over her neck to see the spot the chunk was taken out of. "Supergirl appears to have nearly healed completely from getting whipped. Just lines remain which leaves me to believe they happened a while ago and were once deep. Finding an exit wound spot on the back of her neck with very faint lines tells me a whip went around her neck and kryptonite went into her." She pulls out a device to look into her ears and squints, she presses the button on her head set. "Agent Danvers? I need your assistants please..."
Alex walked into the room. "How is she?"
Looking up at Alex, "how long was she under the affects of a sound grenade?" She asks while checking her other ear drum.
"I don't know. I didn't even know it was used on her. Why?"
Dr. Hamilton frowns, "a while ago she was whipped with Kryptonite, there are lines on her back to indicate they were deep. But it seems she was in the sun enough for them to close up, this leads me to believe she and her twin got away."
She looks at Alex, "Kara Queen was visibly upset, your sister must have gotten captured and questioned," she shows the faint marks on Kara's torso. "If it was prolonged, even with the collar on this would look much worse. That woman must have used a sound grenade to keep her under control for a prolonged amount of time... I have a feeling they got away from her more than once and she wasn't willing to take any chances." She holds the device up for Alex, "her ears look really damaged, see for yourself... I feel she needs to go into the tank."
"Whatever you think is best Susan." Alex sighed resigned. She wished now she would have killed Roulette.
Dr. Hamilton walks over and places a hand onto her good shoulder, "are you okay?" She asks her concerned. Knowing what happened with her sister she knows won't make it easier.
"What do you think?" She snapped. "She can't even go have a pizza, fly anywhere without being persecuted!" Alex found herself shouting. She left quickly after apologizing to Hamilton for her outburst.
Dr. Hamilton sighs and puts Kara back into her suit, she then pages Mon-El, "I need to put her into the tank... and no idea how to use it."
Brainiac and Mon El set the tank up and had her placed in it. They dialed in what needed treated, and the tank started work on Kara's delicate eardrums.
"Judging from the quick analysis of the ship's computer she should be in there just over a day." Brainiac told them all.
Dr. Hamilton sighs as she looks up at her patient, "and how long till we're back?" She turns around, "and where's my other patient?"
"What other patient?" Mon El asked.
Looking at him, "Kara Queen, I have a feeling she was whipped as well and want to check."
"We will be back in two days. She will be out tomorrow." Mon El looked into the tank at his girl's pretty face.
Brainiac smirked. "You sent her out doctor. Don't you remember?" Mon El grinned at that too.
Dr. Hamilton shakes her head, "yes... your right. Danvers was my major concern," she sighs and writes down notes on her clipboard.
Oliver walks up next to his wife with concern, "I take it you don't want to talk about it, which I totally understand... I just didn't think you'd shut me out. But, if you want space I'll give it," he says trying to be considerate.
"No, I don't want to talk about any of it!" She told him angry. She headed back to the infirmary, she spun around so quickly he didn't even register she left, she was simply there one minute and gone the next.
He opens his mouth and blinks, heaving a sigh he runs his hand through his hair before going to the cafeteria to sit down and make himself hot chocolate and sip at it very slowly. Resting his chin onto his forearm as he stares at it wishing he knew what his wife was going through, but he knows better than to push.
The General, acting very much like the General, walked back into the infirmary. She immediately saw Kara in the tank, and walked over close to Super speed to it. "Why is she in this?" She demanded.
Dr. Hamilton jumped, her hand about to touch her ear piece to call Queen down. "Oh, ear damage, I'm confident she'll wake up after they're healed. Not much damage anywhere else," she gestures to a table, "please, have a seat so I can look you over."
"What do you mean ear damage?" She started angrily.
Dr. Hamilton looks at the chart for Danvers, "it looks like she was put under a sound weapon for too long. My best guess is the woman wanted to keep her under control... I take it there was more than one escape attempt?"
She nodded curtly. "So she will be out tomorrow." She continued to look at her girl's sweet sleeping face. "Okay." She turned to leave.
Dr. Hamilton clears her throat, "I still need to look you over, Kara Queen."
"I am fine as you can see." She walks out the infirmary. She is saddened by her twin's demise. She really should have checked on her sooner. She walked down the hallway lost again. She decided food was important, as she had depleted her needs some time ago. She found the cafeteria, and got a tray. She really wasn't hungry, but knew she had to eat. So she grabbed a salad and some bread and Sat down by her husband.
"Hey." She said. "Sorry I left. But I sensed something was wrong and I was right."
Oliver looks up and watches her sit down, "why not have a steak or a beefy burger... I think Winn set up pizza for you two," he takes a sip of his drink and listens.
"Kara got admitted for treatment. She won't be out till tomorrow. I am fine with the salad. Not really hungry actually." She picks at it.
He nods, "I remember shutting you out after I was tortured... I understand," he takes another sip, "I've just been worried sick over you both for over a day. I hate not knowing what is going on... I hate knowing your being hurt and there's nothing I can do about it..."
"I am fine now Oliver. It is her that I am worried about." She forces herself to eat her salad. "You want my bread?" She asked handing him the roll.
He takes it and has a bite, "shitty situation... did you have separate cells or were you together?"
"No we were together most of the time." She finished the salad, proud of herself that she forced it down. "I am tired. Where are we staying on the ship?" She looked around, "I need to lie down."
He stands up, "I'll take you, it's a bit of a maze," he holds his hand out to her. "Happy to hear you had each other," he smiles a bit and then frowns, "leaning on each other... who did the fighting?"
"What do you mean? We both fought to get out." She followed him to their borrowed quarters.
"Sorry, we took down a company called EAE, we were told you were at a fighting arena," he stops at the door frame. "Mind if I lie down with you?"
Once in, she closed the door. Peeling off her suit, she climbed into bed naked. "Of course you can lie with me. I may go near comatose from everything I have been through though." She warned him. Pulling up her covers over her.
Oliver steps in with her, taking his shirt off and climbing into the bed with her, wrapping his arm around her protectively. "I love you sweetie," he kisses her cheek.
"Love you too dear." She falls asleep.
So... how're things going to go from here? What do you predict?
