Reunion
LuthorCorps. Inc.
"You've got interesting choices of friends Neil," Lex told his son.
"What?"
"Lara Kent," Lex said.
"You stay away from her Dad," Neil told him.
"I'm not going to do anything," Lex grinned at him, "though; the resemblance with our local heroine is almost uncanny."
Neil watched his father's face.
"What are you getting at?"
"I'm simply wondering if your little friend haven't got anything to hide, "Lex said,"There is a way to find out after all."
"A way?"
Lex gives him a ring which had a green stone in the middle, and as Neil observed it putting it to his eye level.
"Our girl of steel weakness," he said, "having this nearby her will send her to her knees. At least, take it as a gift."
Neil pocketed it.
"Can't be too careful,"
Neil knew his father was being paranoid, but something within him was also curious about how Lara resembled the girl of steel.
Supergirl arrived at her destination, the Metropolis Star Lab and she hovered above it, narrowing her eyes seeing through the building walls. She observed the place for a few minutes before flying upward toward the sky.
The Franklins found murdered in their house and a break-out in Star Labs, could these events be connected in some ways? Supergirl sighed a little. She couldn't think of anyone murdering the Franklins unless that person had a grudge against them…
Could Linda have really killed her own parents?
She needed to be sure, and the only way to do this was to find Linda herself…but where should she start looking?
Then an idea came to mind, and Supergirl headed straight for Smallville.
Lara arrived at the house finding it deserted and frowned. Neither of her parents had told her that they were leaving the house and the front door had being unlocked…
"Ma, Pa," Lara yelled looking around.
No one answered.
She made for the barn, quickly scanning the building up and down but she didn't find no sign of life within the place which made the girl grew all the more worried.
"Hello Lara," a voice said.
She stopped at the voice before turning around. Standing across her was Linda Franklin who was smirking at her. The blonde girl was dressed in dirty jeans with a long sleeved shirt on her, her blond hair falling behind her shoulders. She looked older than when Lara had last saw her, and skinnier also.
"Linda," Lara responded.
"You sure look great for someone I've killed for three years," Linda said, stepping sideway, observing her carefully.
"I'm not that easy to kill Linda," Lara answered her, "What have you done with my parents?"
"They are alive," Linda answered, "At least, for now anyway."
Lara's eyes narrowed slightly, x-raying the girl in front of her finding that her entire blood was mated with green glow…kryptonite.
"You've killed your parents didn't you," Lara stated.
"They're not my parents," Linda told her, "Parents would have supported you no matter what's wrong with you, not dumping you off to be an experiment for scientists. What other ways to take my revenge on them other than killing them?"
Lara stared at the girl, shocked to hear the words coming from her mouth.
"But I have discovered something today," Linda continued, "Something that I had seen that day at Diana's, that flash of red and blue that no one had noticed. Unless you can be in two places at once Lara, you were the one that interfered with my love for Diana and today, you will pay."
Ice grew out of the ground in front of Lara but the tip broke off when they collided with Lara's body, causing Linda's eyes to widen, noticing this.
"You're a freak aren't you Lara," she said, "A meteor infected freak…just like me."
She fired more ice out of her hands toward Lara encasing her entirely in ice but Lara blew the ice outward with a yell as her gaze glared at Linda.
"What are you made of…steel?" Linda said, now sounding extremely pissed off.
Her skin turned blue as her hair looked like icicles, and she fired two blast of ice from her hands which Lara dodged skillfully. Then she used her heat vision slamming the blast against Linda sending the girl back and landing against the ground. Lara approached her and when she got close enough, Linda struck with an sneak attack which sliced her shirt, showing part of the S-shield underneath which Linda gazed at, as if she couldn't believe her eyes.
"It's you," she whispered, "You're Supergirl…"
Lara took her by the collar of her clothe, glaring at Linda.
"Where are my parents?"
Linda gives her a grin.
"Find them if you can Supergirl…before they died of cold."
"If they die…I'll kill you myself," Lara growled, her eyes flashing red as the heat vision powered up in her anger.
"With blood on your hands," Linda said, "Will you really be the hero you made people believe Supergirl?"
Lara's eyes widened, suddenly taking conscience in what she was about to do. She could have really kill the girl right there…Linda took this chance to slam an ice tip into her face but it shattered just like all of the other.
Lara glares at her.
"I'm taking you back to jail."
With that she took off into the air, taking Linda with her. She heads straight to the Metropolis Star Labs dumping Linda there with security and then took off into the air, her cape fluttering behind her…
She couldn't have taken them far…so they have to still be in Smallville, she thought thinking of her parents, How many places in Smallville had a freezer big enough…wait, the Talon…
The girl of steel increased her speed, blurring through the empty store heading straight for the basement where the freezer. She saw that the door was locked, and she ripped it off its hinges. There both of them lying on the ground, tied up were both Ma and Pa Kent. Not wasting another second, Lara activated her heat vision, sending waves of heat toward the two, warming them up quickly. When she was done, Lara pick of both of them up and super sped toward the Smallville Hospital.
A few hours later, was when Ma Kent woke up, as Lara entered the room.
"Ma…how are you feeling?"
"I…I'm fine Lara," she said, "How is Jonathan?"
"Sleeping," the young girl answered, "I was so scared to lose you guys that I even threatened the person responsible. In that single moment Ma, I felt something, something dangerous…coming from me."
"Now you listen to me young lady," Ma Kent said, causing Lara to look up at her, "You are here to be a force of good Lara Kent. Nobody is immune to temptation but you got to learn of not falling into it. There will come a time, you'll have to face our Darkness, but not today."
The young girl took her into hug, feeling safety into her mother's arms.
Daily Planet
When Lara arrived to work the next day, she noticed on the news that they were talking about the Star Labs convict back under security thanks to Supergirl.
"I'm guessing you had something to do with this," Chloe said, approaching her.
"Yeah," Lara said, looking at the news video, "well, better get these to Perry."
She showed her the orange envelop.
"Go ahead."
Lara made her way toward the office, and entered finding Lois there again.
"Ah, Kent," Perry said, noticing her, "You've got some pictures?"
"Yes sir," Lara said giving him the folder.
The man took it and pulled out the pictures. On one of them was a full bodied picture of Supergirl flying off somewhere, followed by a few others that made Perry's eyes widen in amazement.
"Well, I'll be damned; you've certainly got the stuffs. I like you already. Expect your paycheck by the end of the week."
"Yes sir," Lara smiled.
"See Lois," Perry said, "This girl's a professional at taking pictures….great one at that."
Lois glanced at the pictures, looking quite impressed.
"Not bad, for a rookie,"
Yeah, crazy girl Linda from part One show up to give some hell...but nothing Supergirl couldn't handle.
Next time: Lara will face something unlike anything she ever faced before...In this finale of Season 3.
