AN: Hello all, it's been a long time, but I'm back and as said before, I will be ending this story soon, I just don't know when. I'm at uni now that is why updates have been scarce. I hope you enjoy this one. I hope everyone has a great Halloween this week. That being said, what is your favourite part about autumn? Or Halloween itself?

The sound of monitors bleeping filled the room, swiftly following was the sound of machines. They sounded like they were supporting someone's breathing. The dripping of water could be heard in the distance.

Her senses were slowly coming back to her. Slowly her eyes opened, the light was blinding and the sound that surrounded her was deafening. As she came back to the world, she realized that she was perhaps already in hell.

A tube was stuck down her throat to help her breathing while only one sunlamp was lit beside her. Kara began to panic as she found that she couldn't move her wrists to try and break free.

"Look who is awake." A woman's voice filled the room. Kara turned her head toward where the sound was coming from. Tears filled her eyes as she began to feel pain. She had no idea how long she had been here or how long she had been out of it. She tried so hard to remember but nothing came to mind.

A drip of water fell onto Kara's cheek. At first, she thought it was water from the roof above her, but she soon figured that it was her own tears. As Lilian walked closer, she began to fight harder, trying to break free from her bonds but nothing worked.

Lilian carried on walking closer, "I wouldn't do that if I were you." She took a breath, "You're confused and scared, you can't figure out why you're here or what happened. Well then, let me tell you." Lilian sat beside her and crossed her arms.

The Day Kara got brought to CADMUS

Kara was walking down town in National City, the day was warm and delightful and so instead of flying, Kara decided to walk into work. She was half-way there when she was struck from behind with a heavy object.

The coffees that she was holding fell onto the pavement and drifted through the cracks along with Kara's blood. The next thing Kara remembered as she was Semi-Conscious was seeing the face of her captor.

Alex?

Kara thought that with the blow to the head that she must be hallucinating. The next thing she heard was a faint, "Sorry." Before she was struck again, this time falling unconscious.

Alex stood there, not believing what she had done. Her sister was hurt bad, and now her being unconscious would bring life to an evil version of Kara that would go on to destroy her family.

What was she doing?

Alex pressed the inter-com on her ear, "She's down." Was all she said as she looked down at Kara's lifeless body.

"Good." Lilian spoke in Alex's ear, "Bring her in."

Present

Kara felt sick to the stomach, she knew that Alex was dead. She watched her die. Why would Alex do such things? The Kryptonian shook her head in denial.

"I know you don't believe me." Lilian shrugged, "But I gave your sister her life back in return for yours, temporarily. Now, what will I do with you?" The Luthor then stood up and removed the tube from Kara's throat that was helping her stay alive before, but she no longer needed it.

Kara coughed heavily as she felt it being pulled out of her, but then struggled to speak after. Kara licked her lips with whatever saliva she had. She was then even more surprised when Lilian gave her a cup of water with a straw.

Kara drank it though, needing it.

"What happened to Lori, Lena?" Kara asked, her voice remaining raspy.

"Lori was a prisoner, but she came free. The creature I created to destroy your family is now dead and Lori is on her way back here to rescue you. Whilst I admire her courage, she still forgets that she is a half-human which means that she isn't invulnerable to bullets."

Kara's eyes widened, "No, Lilian please. Don't. She's my daughter."

"She's my family, not yours." Lilian said fiercely, "You only came back when you thought you could get something out of it. Once she started to get powers, that's when you bothered. My daughter and granddaughter were happier without you in their lives."

"Then why did you kill Robert?" Kara asked bluntly, "If Robert were still here, I wouldn't have come back, so why kill him?" Kara then laughed darkly, "I have a better question, "Why did you try and take everything that Lori cared about away from her? You tried to kill Lena too."

"That water that Lena drank wasn't for her, it was for Lori." Lilian quipped back.

"Okay, so what about shooting Lena?" Kara asked, "None of your plans make sense! You just want Lori to embrace her darker side. Well, I hate to break this to you, but she was raised by a woman who cared very, very deeply. A woman who has a big heart. She was loved, she is loved, and nothing will make her turn to a dark side!"

Lilian stood up as a siren sounded, "Would you look at that, your hero is on her way. It would be a shame if she was shot dead upon entry, wouldn't it?"

"Lilian, leave her alone, please. Please don't do this." Kara begged frantically.

Lilian picked up a gun and cocked it before looking back at Kara, "Do what?"

Kara swallowed hard and stared at the gun in her hand, "No."

With that, Lilian left the room, leaving Kara screaming and struggling, "LILIAN!"

…

Outside the warehouse

Lori was just walking out of a field, long blades of grass skewed her vision, but as she looked around, she could already see Lilian there waiting for her.

Lilian looked around, she knew Lori was right there. She smirked as she looked right at her, "Come to grandma." She said smugly, before turning to one of her guards, "You don't do anything unless I tell you to. Let her come on her own."

Lori walked out of the grass and began towards them with her arms held up in surrender, "I don't want anyone to get hurt. I just want my mom, I want this all to end. Please." Lori carried on walking just as Lilian began to walk towards her.

Eventually, they met each other in the middle and Lilian looked down on Lori, "You made a mistake coming back, you know that? I could kill you right now and order my people to end Supergirl."

"Your creature is dead, your plan failed, face it." Lori retorted, "I want my family back."

"You need to surrender." Lilian sneered, "Go back home."

"Not without Kara." Lori insisted.

"Fine." Lilian said to her before turning around and taking a few steps forward.

Lori stood there in silence, not knowing what to say or do. She just wanted everything to get better. She wanted her family back together. She watched as Lilian pivoted towards her and straightened her spine.

"What would you be willing to do to get your family back together?"

Lori frowned as she thought about the question, "I'd be willing to do anything."

"Good." Lilian said smugly before raising her gun to her.

Lori's breath caught in her throat as she watched the gun being raised. However, she was too slow to do anything to stop it. Three bullets were fired towards her and in that moment, time seemed to stop.

The bullets hit Lori in the chest. At first, she was numb, nothing seemed to hurt but the next, she heard a scream coming from somewhere. From behind Lilian, there was Kara running out of the building, and as Lori lost her balance, Kara caught her, "Lori, Lori stay with me." Kara begged her, tears streamed freely down her face, "You've got to stay with me okay?"

As bullets were flying towards them, Kara shot into the sky with her daughter in her arms. Kara headed to the one place she knew, Lena's home. Lori's breathing became laboured and her heart was not beating properly, and Kara prayed that she would survive.

She hoped she would survive.
