Mon-el grabbed me by the arm the moment we saw him approach, surprising me when I saw him kneel in front of my sister.
"I'm Mxypztly," he said. "Kara, honey, I'm your soul mate, I love you, Kara Zor-el." At that moment my sister looked at me, transmitting the confusion that filled her, and to be exact I was in the same situation "Would you marry me?" He questioned her to everyone's surprise. "I can show you ..." he began to sing, taking me to the limit of my patience.
Even though Mon-el tried to keep me at his side, I approached that guy by grabbing his jacket to get him to his feet, completely angry about it.
"I don't know who you are or how you got here," I began. "But stay away from her," I warned.
"Who are you?" He asked.
"Her sister" I said wishing that he would leave in the same way that he had arrived.
"Kaelah Zor-el, I suppose, heiress of the House of and the future princess of Daxam" he commented getting me to look at him surprised by that he knew such information. "It is an honor, princess" he took my hand to kiss it, but before he could Mon-el got in the middle. "And now who are you?" He asked as I approached my sister.
"Kaelah's boyfriend," he said. "e's asked you to stay away from his sister, so you'd better do it," he threatened.
That guy did not answer, but he snapped his fingers causing Mon-el to disappear, alarmed me, where was he supposed to be?
"Where is he?" I asked, watching the room as my sister grabbed my arm.
"Calm down, he's okay, not far from here," he replied, looking at my sister. "Where were we?" he knelt in front of my sister again, "Kara ..."
"No, no and no," I interrupted. "How have I to tell you that she's not going to marry you?" I asked angrily.
"I did not want to, but ..." he snapped his fingers.
She screamed at her sister's name, looking where Kaelah had been in the past, but she could not help the surprise when she looked at what was on the floor, bending down to watch her closely, verifying that it was her, she would never confuse that look.
In just a few seconds the little girl began to cry demanding to be caught, so she could not deny it, rising from the floor and looking at him.
"Why did you do this?" She asked, trying to stop her sister's crying.
"That way she can not object," he replied.
"What?" She glared at him. "I want my sister back," she demanded, cradling her.
"Then say yes," he asked.
"No, I'm not going to accept," she said. "I don't know you at all, and the little I know of you is that you bring chaos," she explained at the same time as her sister began to cry louder.
"In that case, I'm sorry," he shrugged. "Not to complicate your sister's care very much, there you have everything rhat you're going to need" he pointed to one of the corners of the room before disappearing.
She sighed, watching her sister, who seemed too intent on continuing to cry without any comfort.
"What am I going to do with you?" She asked raising her a little, distracting her, even laughing. "Hey, Kaelah," she said softly as she hugged her, causing her to lean her head on her shoulder.
She sat with her in the couch without being sure of what to do, for it was true that she was educated during her last year in Krypton to care for her cousin, but that was so far away that right now nothing she thought made sense.
When they rang the doorbell, there was nothing left but to get up with the little one in her arms to open the door, looking for some logical way to explain what was happening. However, realizing who was waiting on the other side, she knew that she would not need much explanation.
"When did this happen?" he asked.
"It's Kaelah," she replied simply.
"Seriously?" He looked more closely at the baby, who began to cry again.
"Now what do you want?" She asked her sister, not knowing what to do.
"Maybe she's hungry," he pointed out as she walked with the little girl to the couch.
She sat her sister in this, making sure to surround her with cushions so she could not fall, however, the little girl seemed to find the perfect entertainment to throw them on the ground, making her look exasperated not knowing what to do with her.
"Hold her while I'm looking for something to eat, "she asked after observing that he had sat on the couch and that her sister had begun to crawl toward him.
He took the little one by altering it more than she already was, because at that moment she did not hesitate to extend her hand towards his face, threatening to put his fingers in the eye, so he grabbed both hands after his second attempt.
"Kaelah, honey, we're not going to get along well." He looked at her earnestly, getting her to laugh. "Is it funny, little one?," he said mockingly, getting even more laughter.
"Hey, little one, come here," she called his sister stretching her arms to reach her, sitting in her lap while she showed the baby food in her hand "Do you want?" She asked offering her, getting her reach for it "Okay, let's see if you like it." She sighed, taking a spoonful. "Open your mouth, Kaelah," she asked before feeding her, patiently waiting for her to express some kind of approval or dislike, which she did, so she could tell she had liked it.
She continued to feed her, however, in the end her sister was no longer to keep eating, keeping her mouth shut, allowing food to slip down her face to stain the onesie she was wearing at that time.
"Hey, look at you," she exclaimed. "I'm going to have to change you before I go to DEO," she said.
"DEO?" Mon-el asked confused.
"Eh, yes, I need information about Mxypztly and see if there is a solution for this, "she explained as she sat up." At least they will give me some guidelines on how to take care of her." She sighed, watching as her sister threatened to put her hand, which peviously she had rubbed in her onesie, in her shirt. "No, Kaelah" her gaze was serious and her voice tried, however, she could not help but laugh at the moment she saw her pull his hand away to look at her with her big blue eyes. "It's a good thing he's been considered, and he's left everything you need," she smiled letting her down at the changer.
She remembered the patterns that had been given to her by her mother in Krypton, which made things easier, though she had to admit that her sister had not stopped moving or babbling through the whole process. Even so, in just a couple of minutes it had completely changed.
"You're clean, sweetie," she said as she took her and watched what she would risk naming as a baby carrier, which, with a little luck, would make it easier to fly with her sister. "I hope you like to fly" She looked at her.
"You don't think I'd better take her," said Mon-el. "She just ate, I don't think a flight is the right thing to do," he said.
She nodded to his comment, yes, it was not the most appropriate, so she picked up the carrier before approaching him and offer the girl.
"I can carry her, I don't need that," he complained at her intentions.
"Believe me, it will make things easier for you if you need both hands," she explained.
She kept trying to convince him, however, after looking at him seriously and that Kaelah began to cry, he agreed.
She explained how he had to put it on his own, in some circumstance he had to do it alone, although she really wished he had not, since it altered her the instability with which he held the girl.
"See you there," she said goodbye before leaving.
The moment she went out to the street, the child's crying ceased, for she began to look at him curiously while she was showing a toothless smile, which made him smile, contagious for her, remembering the first time he saw her, because honestly, it did not differ much of that scene.
"This is going to be one more step in our relationship, honey," he whispered, stroking the little girl's cheek. "It's all very strange, that you're a baby disoriented me," he laughed lightly, watching as the child had rested her head on his chest and fell asleep. "Good night, Princess," he kissed her forehead as he continued on his way to the DEO.
When they arrived at the DEO, they all looked at them curious, fixing the majority on the little one, so without wanting to attract much attention, he advanced quickly until finding Kara.
"Are you a babysitter now, Mon-el?" Winn looked at him.
"What?" He asked confused.
"It's what we call those who work caring for children," Kara explained, though he must admit that he still did not understand. "And no, he is not, this baby is Kaelah," she replied.
"Seriously?" Winn looked startled by such information. "Wait, is everything you told me true?" he asked before continuing. "Is there a kind of genie walking free through National City?"
"Yes, it's all true," Kara said, starting to get nervous. "Where's J'onn?"
"I don't have any rules about bringing babies to the DEO?" He said as he approached them.
Kara began to explain everything that had happened earlier in the apartment and the consequences that had brought with it, such as the fact that Kaelah was a baby.
He watched the little girl with curiosity, for in spite of the voices and the noises she did not wake up, so he smiled slightly, wishing she could stay that way for as long as possible.
It was not until Dr. Hamilton started to recognize her when she woke up, looking at everything with curiosity before she began to cry, again. She only calmed down when Kara took her in her arms, lifting her up enough to start laughing.
"She's perfect," Hamilton said. "She's nine moths, I think," she said. "She probably has powers, especially if she exposed to the sun," she warned.
Kara nodded slightly before leaving the room with her sister in her arms.
"We'll look for information about that guy while you take care of your sister," J'onn said before they said goodbye.
It was about three o'clock in the morning when her sister began to cry again, waking her up, however, this time unlike the others nothing calmed her, but altered her even more and cried more strongly. She began to sing a kryptonia lullaby, making her remain silent for a few seconds, listening intently before crying again.
She sighed, there was only one option left, and she really wished she could give her a solution.
"Eliza," she whispered as she picked up the phone.
"Kara, honey, what happened? Are you okay?" She asked suddenly.
"Yeah, I just ... I need help," she admitted, watching as the little girl crawled dangerously to the edge of the bed.
"What's wrong?" She questioned her.
"I need help with the subject of babies," she replied, looking for a way to explain. "This evening a magician has appeared ... I don't know what it is" she sighed. "The fact is that he asked me to marry him and Kaelah defended me and he has turned her into a baby, "she explained." I have no idea what I'm doing, she's crying and I don't know what to do to calm her down, "she admitted, waiting for some advice or help.
"How old is she?" She asked.
"About nine months," she replied.
"In that case, it is very likely that bother her gums," she explained. "Try to give her something to bite, that would relieve the pain," she said before adding. "If you need me to come, I can do it," she offered.
"No, it's not necessary, I'll try." she said.
"Okay, call me if something happens," she asked. "I love you Kara," she said good-bye.
"Well, thank you." She smiled as if she could see her. "I love you, too." She hung up and walked over to his sister, picking her up. "Okay, let's check it out," she whispered, kissing her cheek.
She went over to where all the baby things were, stacking a pacifier and a teether, offering both things for her to decide, watching as she grabbed the pacifier before taking to her mouth, ceasing crying.
She cradled her and sang until she fell asleep, laying her down again in bed with the uncertainty of when it would be the next time she woke up.
