Despite the war taking place on the outside of the Waverider, you could've heard a pin drop on the inside. Everyone, even those who already knew, were dead silent at the sound of the news.

"You're joking," Stein finally said but Sara turned to him, her completely serious face not once wavering.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" She asked; the older man looked as if he had a response planned but it died on his lips upon realizing that she was, in fact, very serious.

"How?" Rip finally questioned,

"Does she really need to explain the how to you?" Len drawled in annoyance.

"So that's why you were throwing up this morning," Jax exclaimed, making the connection to earlier.

"No I mean, when? Or who?" Rip spluttered, ignoring Jax and causing Sara to do the same. She looked at Len, who nodded his permission, letting her know that he was ok with the others knowing that he's the father.

"Well, the night we stopped at the service station for fuel Leonard and I decided that we had both had a long day and we wanted to get our minds off it for a little bit." She explained, now just about everybody was staring at Snart with a mix of faces that ranged from surprised (Ray and Stein) to downright smug (Mick).

"Wait, you?" Ray questioned, pointing to Len. "And you?" His finger now flying to Sara's direction before he began gesturing widely between the two. "You and you? You hooked up with… so the two of you…?"

"The answer is yes Raymond, now learn to finish a sentence." Len cut off the other man's stuttered question that he couldn't seem to get out of his mouth.

"The two of us ditched the last mission because I started bleeding, you know, down there and we thought I was miscarrying." Sara awkwardly supplied, trying to get everyone away from their initial shock. "But Gideon checked me out and said everything's ok," she made sure to add that when the other's expressions quickly shifted from shock to worry.

"I don't normally disagree with Gideon, but I would say that everything is far from being ok." Rip said; folding his arms across his chest as the shock disappeared and the anger set in.

"Rip," Sara began but the captain didn't allow her to continue.

"What were you thinking?" He demanded, "What were either of you thinking?"

"This coming from the man who got married and had a kid even though it was against policy?" Snart asked, "You aren't exactly one to talk Rip."

"Miranda and I planned on getting married as well as on having Jonas! We were careful not to sleep together while she was in training to be a Time Master, unlike you two who apparently just threw caution to the wind!" He all but screamed,

"Hey, we used a condom." Len snapped in defense,

"But apparently it wasn't a very good one," Sara added, not that it was of any help to the situation.

Rip ran a hand over his face as he groaned, trying to decide what to do with this information.

"This is our absolute last chance to stop Savage and we need everyone," he said mostly to himself.

"I know, and I'll be fine." Sara assured him, snapping his attention directly to her.

"Sara-" he tried to argue but she wouldn't allow it.

"Like you said, this is our last chance and we need everyone. I'm not even a full two months along yet, I'm more than capable of handling one last mission." She told him, the look in her eye leaving no room for argument.

"It's your child," he finally said in a voice that sounded like if he had another choice he wouldn't let her go out on this mission, but he doesn't have another choice, she isn't giving him one.

"And I can protect it," she assured him confidently,

"Besides, she'll have us right there." Mick cut in, he and the others all knew that Sara wasn't going to allow herself to be benched even if it was for a good reason, but they also know that her guard would be up extra high and that she would never allow any harm to come to her baby.

Rip nodded at Mick and sighed, "Here's the plan."

Twenty minutes later the selected crew members, and Rip, were standing among the ranks of Savages army and blending in seamlessly thanks to some uniforms barrowed from four soldiers who are currently occupied on the inside of a closet. Briefly Rip wondered if Mick had truly come back to his side, as he was apparently listening to Savage, but he decided to write the issue off as Mick being Mick.

"All set on our end," Kendra confirmed into their earpieces as the rally ended, despite having tried to push the assignment onto Sara she was the one monitoring from the safety of the Waverider. She's the only one who can kill Savage, and Sara was quick with reminding her that until they procure a means of doing so she needs to stay hidden from immortal psycho. "Jax is standing by in the jump ship," she informed them.

"For if, and by if I mean when, this thing goes south." Snart deadpanned just as Savage's second in command walked by and glanced right at them. "Savage's lady friend just made us." He all but snarled, already regretting listening to Rip's plan.

"Have faith, Mr. Snart." Rip requested but he must not have listened, big shock, because five minutes later Mick tripped Rip and the four ended up locked in battle with Savage's main guards.

"We'll handle Savage, you tie up the guards." Snart ordered Sara as he and the other two headed off after their target. He probably thought he was leaving her with the easy assignment, mostly unconscious guards, but he didn't see Savage's lieutenant hiding in wait for her fight to become one on one.

"Sara," Kendra's voice rang in the assassin's ear as she engaged the other blonde in battle.

"Not the best time for a lecture Kendra," Sara replied,

"Not that," Kendra said, "The woman you're fighting, you need to take her bracelet." She exclaimed, although Sara knew that her friend would probably be giving her a lecture later on.

"Are you seriously jewelry shopping right now?" She asked in disbelief just as she pushed her opponent away.

She waited for a response, but one never came. Instead Rip and Mick rushing her way and shouting to fall back cut off the chance for it. Snart wasn't far behind them, and when he caught sight of Sara's attacker he aimed his ice gun at the woman with a deadly glared that just dared her to continue her assault. When she stood down at the threat of being frozen, and once Sara was safely on her way with Rip and Mick towards the jump ship, he gave the attacker one last warning glance and then took off after them.

Turns out she hadn't been jewelry shopping. The bracelet had apparently once belonged to Chey-Ara, AKA Kendra's first life, and she was wearing it on the night that she died. So while Rip, Ray, and both halves of Firestorm were out making friends with what's left of the group fighting against Savage's army and Klepto and Pyro were out obtaining the bracelet Sara was in charge of preparing Kendra to take the killing blow at Savage, with a bracelet.

"I could teach you to kill with a necklace, a headband, even a good earring," she mused as she paced around the cargo bay while Kendra flipped though one of Aldus's notebooks for about the thousandth time. "But how in the hell are you supposed to fight and kill an immortal warlord, with a bracelet?" She asked just as Kendra dumped the journal in her hands.

"I don't know," she sighed before turning back to the box she had taken the journal from.

"Hey, what's it like?" Sara asked as she ran her hand gingerly over the leather-bound book she had been handed. The last time she had seen this it was just a book to her, something that had once belonged to a man she didn't know. But now, maybe because she knows Kendra better or because of her own situation, it was so much more. It was heavier, weighted by love and pride, and it held so much more than just half thought out notes in a handwriting she could barely make out. "Being a mom?" She continued her question when she noticed Kendra's face said that she didn't quite understand.

"Well I don't remember most of the newborn days," she sighed apologetically. "But I remember his face when Carter, Joe was his name in that life, came home from work. His eyes would light up and he'd run into his arms, and I remember sitting by his bedside with a washcloth on his head when he was sick; Joe was always jealous because I was the only person he wanted." She reminisced; a bright smile making it's way across her face as she thought about the son of her past life. "It's a lot of work," she finally said, bringing herself back to reality. "But out of the 206 lifetimes I've lived, I think it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done." She confessed and although Sara gave her a smile, she was still scared. "Was he your only kid?" She asked, curious to know if over the course of the last 4000 Kendra had seriously only ever had one child.

She seemed to think on it for a moment, her brow knitting together with concentration.

"I don't think so…" she said uncertainly, "I've had some vague dreams about a girl, I feel like she could've been my daughter." She confessed before shaking the thoughts away and refocusing on the contents of the crate, specifically Carter's mace.

She reached down to pick it up, just to move it so that she could get the journal that lay underneath, but that isn't exactly what happened.

Kendra froze up for a brief second, before dropping the mace as though it had burned her.

"What is it?" Sara asked, very aware that her friend was coming out of a vision from her past.

"I think I know what we can use to kill Savage," she announced, without another word the two of them left the room and headed for Rip's study. When they got there, however, they found the team in the middle of a very interesting discussion.

"So she's Savage's daughter?" Ray asked in disbelief,

"Wait what?" Sara questioned as she and Kendra walked in.

"Apparently that lieutenant you were fighting earlier today, Miss Lance, is the daughter of Vandal Savage." Stein replied in response to her question,

"Yes, so to continue with today's theme, does anyone else here have or plan on having a child and want to share that information?" Rip questioned but obviously no one in the group replied, so they moved on to the next subject.

"I think I've got the bracelet thing figured out," Kendra said confidently before turning to Mick, "But I'm gonna need you to burn something for me." She said and he nodded.

"About time," he said, clearly looking forward to breaking out his lighter again.

"Great, but we still need to figure out what we're going to do with our new guest." Rip reminded them all,

"She's seen us and the ship, if she runs back to Savage we're giving him a huge advantage." Sara pointed out, "But if she is Savage's daughter and his lieutenant then she would know the details of his defenses."

"Yes, but how are we going to get those details out of her?" Rip all but snapped, not noticing that Snart was already vacating his spot in the doorway.

"I'm on it," he announced, the others all turning just in time to see him leave.

"You really think you can get through to her?" Sara asked when Snart came walking out of the brig, she had been waiting outside for him ever since a few minutes after he went in.

"I don't know," he admitted, falling into sync with her steps as they began to walk down the corridor. "One of the worst things about having a crappy parent is that you don't want to admit that you have a crappy parent, even to yourself." He mused before he let his eyes scan over her.

"How are you doing?" He asked and she shrugged,

"Fine," she answered, as though the events that took place a few hours ago hadn't ever occurred.

"Are we ever going to talk about it?" Snart asked her and she shrugged again.

"I thought we already did, when you told me your vote is for keeping it." She reminded him; they were stopped now, standing in the middle of the corridor and locked in a staring contest that neither of them knew the true point of.

After a few seconds Snart opened his mouth to say something, but a violent rocking of the ship cut him off. It felt like the ground underneath them had started quaking, and at some point in trying to maintain their balance Snart found himself instinctively slipping an arm around Sara's waist and his other hand resting firmly against the nearest wall, which she was also leaning her hands against. The shaking lasted longer than any earthquake should've and if they didn't know better both the crook and the assassin would've sworn that a very large and unsteady crane was lifting the ship. In fact, they soon determined that the ship had to be in the air because it started thrashing about vigorously and it didn't take them long to lose their balance. When they went down Snart wrapped his other arm around Sara, pulling her flush against him in a protective hold. Once they hit the floor she twisted in his grip, using her back to put as much protection between her flat midsection and the now falling debris of the ship as possible.

When the shaking finally stopped, and ended with them having been thrown almost all the way down the hall, the two cautiously climbed off of each other.

"What was that?" Sara asked,

"I don't know, but I'd bet my gun it has something to do with Savage." Snart said and Sara nodded her agreement.

"I'll go check it out with Rip, you see if Savage's daughter knows about anything worse that could happen." She instructed, now it was Snart's turn to nod in agreement.

He wanted to argue, wanted to go with Sara, but he trusts her. He knows that when it comes down to it she'll do what's necessary to protect their child, even if that means benching herself. But until then she needs to be able to carry on with her usual business for as long as she can, for all their sakes. So he let her go, and once she was around the corner he turned around and headed back into the brig.

A giant robot.

Of all things it was a giant freaking robot that had attacked the ship. It had left Stein wounded and confided to the med bay, meaning that Jax couldn't really do much more than monitor the mission from the ship. But that turned out to be helpful because when Ray managed to reverse his suit's polarity and make himself grow to the size of the robot he needed someone to monitor his vital signs so that he didn't blow up.

Anyway the rest of the team, with the aid of a turncoat Cassandra Savage, snuck into Savage's secret bunker and was currently awaiting the signal from the young lieutenant. Well they didn't have to wait long before Savage caught onto her intentions of double-crossing him and they revealed themselves, all but Kendra.

"Oh I admire your command of irony Gareeb," Savage said, referring to Rip by his alias from Ancient Egypt. "Using my own child against me,"

"Sorry to say it didn't take much," Snart said, not sorry at all of course.

"They showed me the truth of what you've done," Cassie said as she turned to join the group and stand against her father.

The fight ensued not long after that.

Kendra came swooping in and flew Savage off to another part of the bunker while her teammates dealt with the guards. They were heavily out numbered but dwindling the odds down fairly quickly when Snart noticed a man about to take a kill shot at Cassie from behind. He wasted no time in icing the attacker, causing the young blonde to turn around and see just how close she had almost come to being vaporized.

"I had it covered," she insisted and he smirked,

"Sure you did."

The mission, as always, didn't go as planned. Turns out one of Savage's goons was the latest reincarnation of Carter and Savage had gotten ahold of him before his memories did, so he brainwashed him. With Savage holding the key to unlocking his mind Kendra just couldn't do it, so instead of killing Savage they took him prisoner. Sara had just finished changing out of her leathers when her door opened and she turned around to see Kendra staring back at her with heartbroken eyes. The blonde crossed over to the door and ushered her friend inside, and once the door was closed Kendra just lost it.

She crumpled to the floor and hugged her knees to her chest as she sobbed, so Sara sat down beside her. She put an arm around her shoulders in an attempt to be comforting, she owed Kendra at least that much.

"I feel like a horrible person!" She wailed before burying her head in her arms.

"You're not a horrible person," Sara assured her, rubbing her arm as if it would help.

"I had the chance to kill Savage, to, to save Rip, Rip's fam, fami…" she trailed off, a fresh onslaught of tears stopping her words from coming out.

"I know, but you can't let Carter live out his life as a brainwashed puppet." She insisted, hoping that holding Savage prisoner would be enough to spare the lives on Miranda and Jonas.

"What about Ray?" Kendra sniffled and Sara sighed,

"That's up to you," she answered and in response Kendra let out another loud sob before picking up her head and burying it in the crook of Sara's neck. Sara just laid her head against Kendra's and held her tighter, hoping that the day would never come when her child cried like this and she felt as helpless as she does now.

"I supposed I should thank you for saving my life," Cassie said once the leader of the resistance had more or less accepted her as an ally and left her alone with Snart.

"You can thank me by helping these people and taking out Savage's forces," he drawled and she smirked.

"You were right you know," she said sadly, "My father has no deep down. When I was a child he would push me past my limits, and punish my failures harshly. I often made note of the things that I wouldn't do when I inevitably became a mother," she confessed and Snart looked at her quizzically.

"Why are you telling me this?" He asked,

"I may have been raised as second in command to a monster, but I was still a little girl not too long ago, and I can still see something that I suspect you no longer can." She cryptically replied.

"Oh yeah? What's that?" Len asked, raising a skeptical eyebrow at her as she smirked.

"That you may not have had the best example of one, but you will be a great father one day should the occasion ever arise." She told him and when he looked at her in surprise all she did was smile. "Good luck on your mission," she said before turning and heading off to begin her own mission, leaving him standing their, and hoping that she's right.
