Two weeks later.

Two weeks had past and the Danvers sister were already like strangers to each other. They hadn't seen each other and only talked on the phone twice. Neither of them could stand the awkward silence that had formed after a while and no one wanted to voice it but they knew, so it was more like a mutual understanding when they started texting instead. Wich soon also quieted down. Neither of them knew what to say or how to say what they wanted to say. It had never been like that between them, they were always able to talk about everything, but this was different and it tore them apart. Kara tried to see her sister one more time, she couldn't take it anymore and flew to the DEO, just wanting to hug Alex for a minute, taking being in a little bit of pain for a fair trade. As soon as the cameras picked up on Supergirl flying towards the Headquaters though, Alex had left the scene and went on the other side of the huge building, being no where to be found and making it very clear that she didn't want her sister anywhere near her, for her own safety of course. Kara didn't let it show, but took it hard and flew back to her apartment that night, disappointed with a single tear running down her face. That was almost a week and a half ago. Since then there was no other attempt from either side to make contact except the occasional. "Are you ok?" Texts here and there wich where mostly answered short and the conversation was over again.

The last phone conversation they had was a really difficult one. Kara tried to apologise for how she acted in the hospital room, but Alex wasn't having any of it. She felt responsible and terrible for hurting Kara. The younger sister tried to get that thought out of her sister head, saying she had nothing to do with it, but she wouldn't listen. Then the subject with the surgery came up and things got emotional really fast. Kara protested Alex getting the Kryptonite removed, if it meant harming her.

"The Doctors said you would be completely fine, living with the Kryptonite inside your stomach."

"But I wouldn't be fine living without you." Alex had replied in a hurt tone, her sister even considering that she would choose anything over her.

"Alex.."

"No it's alright well just talk later ok? It's been a long day. Take care alright?"

"Yeah sure I will. You to. Bye"

"Bye."

Just like that there last conversation had ended. Tonight was different thought. Tonight was the second week in a row where Kare sat in front of her TV, starting at the frozen screen. Homeland was on tonight and she had paused the recording, as if waiting for Alex to walk through the Door with Pizza or chinese Takeout apologising for being late and telling her some story about Hank having her do some extra work or about some malfunction in the Lab, wich she knew would go unheard by Kara anyways since she only had eyes for the Food that Alex was balancing.

Kara had a smile on her Face, thinking about that seemingly boring and unexciting memory, but it was what she missed the most, just the boring normality with her sister. Her smile turned into a frown as she looked at the paused TV screen again. She couldn't bring herself to watch it without her sister. It would have been like giving up hope on it every changing again. But maybe it wouldn't, maybe that was how it was going to be from now on, the two sister drifting away from each other to what they once were, strangers. Kara didn't tell Alex, but of course she wanted her to get the Kryptonite removed, she just would never say it and even hated herself for wanting it. It was so selfish of her, but she couldn't help feeling that way, she couldn't help wanting to be with her sister. Not trying to think about it anymore, she picked up her Phone and got a text in that very moment, feeling it vibrate in her hand. The text was from Alex.

'Are you watching?' Kara let out a shaking breath and answered.

'No. You?' A reply came only a few seconds later.

'No.I coulden't.'

'Me neither' No reply came for a few minutes.

'I miss you.' Kara wanted to cry, it was like she could hear her sister say it.

'I miss you two.'

She locked her phone, turned of the TV and went to bed. Not wanting to think about anything anymore, she let sleep come over her and welcomed the darkness.

The next morning Kara was woken up abruptly by a loud knock on the Door. She stumbled to the Entrance, not expecting to see Director Henshaw standing on the other side.

"Boss!", Kara said in surprise, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes and blushing slightly. She looked like she was twelve, her hair in her ponytail and pink clouds on her pyjamas. "What are you doing here?"

Her embarrassment turned into worry really quick as she thought of the only reason why he would show up at her Door. "Is Alex ok?", she said with wide eyes.

"Agent Danvers is perfectly fine. She just asked me to stop by and give you this."

He handed her a sealed letter with her Name written on it, she recognised the handwriting as her sisters immediately.

"Ill leave you to it. Have a good day Miss Danvers."

"You to." Kara mumbled, still staring at the letter as she closed the Door again. She sat down on her couch and opened the letter, slowly beginning to read it.

Dear Kara,

I know it's weird writing you a letter, but a phone call or text would have seemed to impersonal. I wanted you to touch something I touched. I am letting you know I am doing the surgery. Today. By the time you read this I will be already under. I'm sorry I didn't tell you I just didn't want to argue or explain myself to you. I made this decision and I'm going to live with the consequences. The Doctors are hopeful. It took then a while, but they figured out a way. I never told you this, but I am so deeply grateful for you. You are the Reason I am who I am. Before you came to live with us I was an obly child, I was the star, but that wasn't at all what I wanted to be. When you came along I finally had a purpose. A reason to do good, because I always had youre puppy dog eyes looking at me. I had to be a good Role Model. I was a big sister now and had to make sure you were protected, taken care of and loved. This whole situation made me realise how selfish and wrong I was all those years.I always tried to protect you and be there for you, at least I thought thats what I was doing, but in reality I am putting you in so much more Danger. I am the only link between Kara and Supergirl. Through me people will find out who you really are. Through me they are going to get to you and hurt you. I can't let that happen so after the surgery I will leave. You have your life together here and you don't need a big sister to hold youre hand anymore. It will be enough if I watch from a far. So this is goodbye. I can understand if you are mad and don't won't to see me. I won't expect you to. The one thing I have realised through all of this is that with or without this piece inside of me, I am your biggest Kryptonite.

Goodbye sister. I love you.

Alex.

Kara had tears running down her face she didn't even noticed. She was mad, hurt, shocked and so many more things. She thought that it maybe wasn't to late, that maybe she would make it to Alex in time and made her realise that she shouldn't get the surgery and on top of everything, that she shouldn't leave. Even if they couldn't be with each other in Person. She wanted to have her sister near. Not even 2 minutes later she was at the DEO. She ran inside and looked around not seeing Hank anywhere. She kicked herself mentally, he wouldn't even be back here by now he was only at her apartment 5 minutes ago.

She walked around towards the medical wing and started to feel weak as she approached the Door at the end of the Hallway. Although it got harder for her to keep herself up while walking, she had hope now. Knowing that her sister was in that Room. All her wounds had healed so she wasn't in any Pain, just the dizziness and weakness that was making her stop and breath for a short moment. She opened the Door and almost fell into the Room, but was able to catch herself and regain her balance. Alex looked up in shock, not expecting Kara to show up. She jumped out of the bed and almost ran towards Kara to try and steady her, seeing the discomfort on her younger sisters Face, but then she remembered and bolted to the other side of the Room, trying to put as much distance between them as possible.

"Kara! What are you doing? Leave you're hurting!", Alex said pressed against the wall of the far corner. She couldn't stand that she was doing this to her.

"How could you?" Kara spat out. All the other emotion she felt earlier were replaced by one...Rage. Alex looked at her little sister, she would never admit it to anyone else ever, but she was slightly terrified of her. She had never seen that much anger in her sister eyes, at least not directed towards her.

"Kara. You should get out. This much exposure is not good for you."Alex tried to avoid the subject and Kara ignored her sisters plead to leave.

"How could you think that I could live without you?" Karas voice began to crack, her features began to soften. She was grabbing on to a chair that was standing, the strength leaving her body slowly. It took all of Alex self control not to run over to her sister. "How could you ever thinking about leaving me alone? How could you think I would be alright without you?" The disapointed and hurt look she was getting from Kara was far worse than the anger. It stunned Alex Heart.

"Kara. I would never want to leave you. It's just..I have to protect you, make sure yore safe and I'm putting you in Danger."

"No you're not! It's crazy you would even think that." Karas voice got softer. "Just don't leave me..please." She begged like a little child would, clinging on to the chair, it was a heartbreaking scene.

"You should go. Kara I'm serious. The Kryptonite it's..."

Before she could finish Kara collapsed to the floor, her legs giving away. Alex eyes went wide, she never felt so helpless.

"Just come here and hold me..please." Kara begged again and looked up from the Floor all her anger was long gone, she just wanted her sister.

"Kara I can't." The conflict was clearly visible in the older ones eyes."Ill hurt you even more."

"We'll then I'll come." Kara slowly started picking herself up from the floor in an attempt to walk over to Alex. She knew that her sister couldn't get away from her this time. The only exit was the Door the Hero had come into and Alex would have to step over her sister to get out and she wouldn't do that. The Agent started to look around nervously, seeing that her sister was serious and really trying to get over to her.

"Kara! No stay away from me! The Kryptonite.."

"Than can't keep me away." She said a little out of breath and she continued to struggle to get up.

Alex couldn't take the scene in front of her anymore, her sister could be very stubborn and would eventually make her way over to her or tried until she would pass out. She pushed the screams that were telling her not to go over there away and rushed over to Kara. Needing to hold her more than she realised. Kara immediately was wrapped in her sisters arms and never felt anything so beautiful but painful at the same time.

"P-promise me you won't leave." Supergirl clenched her teeth, trying to hold it together.

"Kara.." Alex was holding her sister, the younger girls head was buried in her neck as Alex chin was resting on her neck.

"Just.." she took another shaking breath. "..Promise."

"I promise", Alex answered after a moment of silence. She knew her baby sister wouldn't drop the subject until she had what she wanted.

Supergirl lifted her head, looking her sister in the eyes, she had almost forgotten how much love were reflected in them.

"No matter what?", she asked as she searched her sisters face for any injection that she could be lying

Alex stroked her sisters cheek and answered with silent Tears running down her Face.

"No matter what." She said as kissed Karas forehead. The younger sister closed her eyes from exhaustion. That was the first time since they were kidnapped that she felt safe and like everything would be alright.
