Chapter 7: Looking Towards the Sky

Barry was worried sick about Kara. They weren't sure what had happened. They heard Kara fighting Galatea through the intercom, and it seemed like she had beaten her, but afterwards, the intercom gave out. Barry had rushed to the location to see what had happened, but when he got there she, Galatea, and Alex were all gone. He had searched the city, corner to corner and still wasn't able to find them. As worried as he was last time, at least then he could see Kara. Now, he had no clue where she was or whether she was even still alive.

It was night time now. Cisco, Caitlin and Wells were sitting inside the main room working on various things to keep themselves occupied. Barry however was standing on the roof of the lab, looking at the stars. In these last two days, not only had he met an alien, but also made a connection with her like none he had ever made before. Just a few days ago, he was head over heels in love with Iris, but now, he finally felt like he could just be happy for her and Eddie. He suddenly noticed someone stepping towards him from behind.

"Kara!" he called out, turning around to only be met by Joe.

"Sorry, son. It's just me," Joe replied, moving towards his son.

"Am I going mad Joe?" Barry asked Joe honestly.

"There's nothing wrong with being worried for a friend, Barr" Joe insisted, putting his hand on Barry's shoulder. Barry paused and looked up at the sky for a second.

"It's just… Kara is not just a friend. There's more to it than that. At least, that's what it feels like." Joe looked at Barry with a surprised look on his face.

"I didn't realize you felt that way about her," Joe said.

"It's crazy right? I mean, meeting someone and then connecting with them so instantaneously?" Joe looked at Barry, thinking for a moment.

"Maybe it is a little crazy… maybe it's very crazy," Joe said, "but that doesn't make it not real, does it?" Barry now looked at Joe. "Let me give you some advice, Barry: If you feel like this is happening too quickly, just try slowing it down a bit." Barry chuckled at this. "Yeah, I know. Not the way you usually do things." Barry quickly wiped the smile from his face.

"I shouldn't be laughing. We don't know if she is still alive."

"If what you have told me about her is all true, then I'm sure she very much is." Barry smiled at the comforting words.

"Thanks, Joe!" he said as he embraced his father.

"It's getting cold. I'm gonna head inside if you don't mind," Joe said as he broke from their hug.

"Go ahead," Barry assured him as he looked towards the sky. "I'm gonna look at the stars for a bit longer." Joe nodded and headed back inside.

…

Kara was flying in the night sky at her highest speed trying to get back to STAR Labs. As she finally started flying over Central, she could see someone standing on the roof of the lab. She couldn't make it out from this distance but as she closed in, she could see who it was.

"Barry," she said to herself, now heading straight for the roof. Once she was close to the roof she began slowly lowering herself to the ground, seeing Barry starring to the sky, in the opposite direction from where she was coming from.

"You're not getting rid off me that easily," Kara said with a smile. Barry turned towards her quickly, going from a surprised to a joyous expression immediately.

"Kara!" he called out, speeding towards her and embracing her the second she landed. Even though she knew Barry would be worried, she didn't quite expect this.

"I'm sorry," she apologized as she returned the hug, squeezing as tight as she could without hurting him. "I was held up. I would have came back sooner if I could have."

"Don't ever do that to me again," Barry said, still embracing her.

"I can't promise you that," she said jokingly and they both laughed.

"You are a piece of work, Kara Zor-El," Barry joked while chuckling.

"And I make up for it with great hair," Kara threw back at Barry, laughing still.

"By the way, I did not realize that you got your own super hero outfit," Barry pointed out as they finally broke from the hug.

"What did you think? That I went to fight Galatea without any clothes on?" she asked jokingly.

"No. What I do think is that it really suits you," Barry complimented Kara.

"Thanks," Kara said blushing a bit. "Alex's mom made it for me."

"Is she alright?" he asked, slightly concerned. "I couldn't find her either when I came looking for you."

"I had to take her to a hospital after I defeated Galatea," Kara lied. "I'll explain the rest later." Barry seemed satisfied with this answer.

"Come on! We should probably let the others know you are still alive," Barry pointed out. Kara nodded and they headed inside.

…

The rest of Team Flash were ecstatic to see Kara and very impressed with the new look. Everyone but Wells decided to head out to celebrate the victory at a restaurant with food and drinks, even though Barry and Kara couldn't get drunk. They just had to be contempt with eating a dinner that could feed two families.

"The fact that you two can eat this much is a crime against nature," Joe exclaimed after seeing Barry and Kara finish their fifth plate each. Everyone laughed at this.

"It's technically not," Caitlin pointed out. "It is however, totally unfair."

"True that," Cisco agreed fist bumping with Caitlin. Suddenly, Barry took the drink he had ordered and held it up.

"To the Maiden of Might," he said with a smile on his face.

"I was actually thinking about calling myself… Supergirl," Kara suggested. Barry looked to her and nodded.

"To Supergirl," he said. "To Supergirl," everyone else said holding up their drinks. Kara suddenly held up her drink again.

"And… to the Flash," she said smiling. "To the Flash," everyone else said as well. Suddenly, Kara noticed her cell phone going off.

"Sorry, I gotta take this," she said excusing herself and going outside.

"Danvers," Kara heard through the phone. "So here I am, enjoying a great news day, only to find out from Lois that you took a few days off." It was Perry White, Lois' and Kara's boss.

"I'm so sorry Mr. White," she said honestly. "It's just, my friend Alex who lives in Central City has been really sick lately, and I wanted to be there for her while I was visiting here.

"It wasn't supposed to be a visit, Danvers," Perry corrected her. "It was an assignment."

"I know, Mr. White," Kara said, hoping compliance would help her out.

"And you're lucky you're one of my best damn interns because otherwise, I'd show you the door."

"I'm so sorry, Mr. White. I swear I will make it up to you when I get back."

"You will. I will make sure of it. I have sent you some info on people I want you to interview and you better get on it as soon as you can. Tonight if you can."

"I will. I will. I promise you. And thanks for not firing me."

"Don't thank me," Perry demanded. "Prove that I didn't just make a huge mistake.

"You didn't I promise you," Kara assured him. As she hung up the phone she could hear someone coming up from behind her. Turning around she could see it was Barry.

"Everything alright?" Barry asked her, slightly concerned. "Seemed pretty serious."

"That was just my editor at the Planet," Kara explained. "He wasn't too happy about me taking two days off. But things are good now."

"Good," Barry said grinning.

"Look," Kara started saying. "I need to catch up on some of the work I missed out on in the past few days. I should probably…"

"Go," Barry interrupted her. "I'll let them know. You got a life outside of Central City after all." Kara looked intensely at Barry for a moment.

"I never got around to thanking you for saving my life the other day," Kara said suddenly.

"To be fair, it was you who saved yourself," Barry corrected her.

"Yeah," Kara agreed, "but you helped… a lot. And not just that time, but with a lot of things." Barry smiled at her.

"Helping people is what we do, isn't it?" Barry said confidently. Kara nodded.

"Also," she said. "I think it's time you and I revealed ourselves."

"What do you mean?" Barry asked in confusion.

"I mean, show the world we exist. That we are here to help. With all these metahumans popping up, I think people have a right to know what's going on. Especially after that newsfeed showed Galatea calling me out." Barry thought about it for a second.

"You're right," Barry said in agreement.

"I usually am," Kara said with a smirk and they both laughed. Barry looked intensely now at Kara as well.

"I'm gonna miss having you around, Kara," Barry said smiling.

"I'll visit," Kara promised. "We have super speed after all. It shouldn't be a problem." They laughed again and embraced each other tightly once more.

"Alright. I gotta fly," she said smiling. She ran towards a nearby alleyway, glancing back at Barry right before changing into her super suit at super speed, taking a few more steps before lifting up into the air and flying away.

Barry looked at the night sky once more, this time not at the stars, but at the woman that had brightened his world up. He knew at that moment, that no matter how dark things might get, he could always look towards the sky and see the sun flying by, faster than the speed of sound.

I really hope you guys enjoyed this story. I had a lot of fun writing it. I'm currently working on the next story/sequel to this one. I plan on creating my own version of the SuperFlarrow universe and this is the first story in that continuity. I will post the next story in a few weeks I think, if everything goes well. I got school and a job so that might keep me busy but hopefully I will find time to write.

Next up in the SuperFlarrow Verse: Supergirl returns to Metropolis and is back working as an intern reporter for the Daily Planet. However, when both her and the Flash reveal themselves to the world, the world doesn't respond as planned, and the Girl of Steel has to find a way to deal with the world of the ordinary becoming the world of the extraordinary
