"Kara?" Barry's voice came in. "Kaelah what happened?" He asked me directly, worried.
I explained everything that had happened, warning him of his last words as they tried to discover what was happening to my sister.
"She's Kaelah, she's Kara's sister." She introduced me. "And they are ...?" He looked at them.
"He's J'onn, DEO's director, and he's Mon-el, my ..." I sighed watching him, knowing that I could not call him that way, not anymore, so I rectified. "He's a friend." I said seeing the pain in his eyes.
"Have you broken up recently?" wondered who had been introduced as Iris, making me shake my head.
"It's a little more complicated than that," Mon-el replied. "It's something related to our cultures, something decided by our respective parents ..." he began to explain, but it was J'onn who interrupted.
"In other words, Kaelah must marry Mon-el's brother," he explained directly, to which I nodded slightly.
"Can't you do anything to stop it?" They asked us, shaking our heads.
Honestly, if there was anything I could do to avoid it, I would have done it, but I had nothing, so I had to try to accept it no matter how hard it was, but all I wanted to do was keep him safe.
However, at the moment my main concern was the state of my sister, who was in a coma and did not react to anything external, which complicated the knowledge of what was happening. Although everything became more complicated when the warning of that type came true, because he attacked Barry.
When that happened, the need to find that guy increased, but even though J'onn asked for my help, I could not, because I was not focused, so I sat next to my sister, feeling the look of Mon-el stuck in me until he finally came and hugged me, which only got me to cry without being able to avoid it.
I went to that cell without caring what Mon-el was telling me, standing in front of that guy, ready to stay as long as it took until he told me how I could get them out of that state, but everything seemed to be a game for him, as if he did not care what was happening.
"How can I get my sister back?" I asked, watching him shrug, causing me to sigh in control. "Tell me," I demanded.
He shook his head, which only made me go to the button that opened the door that separated us at the moment, being held by Mon-el, who grabbed my arm to pull me back, getting me to debate, but that I finally stood still, watching him again, for there was something I had not tried.
"Did you get anything?" Iris asked.
"Not yet," I replied, concentrating.
I looked directly into his eyes as I tried, watching as he smiled slightly and shook his head, obviously he knew what he was doing, but I did not stop. I felt like a beep, but without getting the answer I needed, fighting not to scream, because the headache was increasing. At a point I had to force myself to close my eyes, wanting to keep myself upright, but I ended up falling to the ground in tears, holding my head,
"Are you okay?" I felt Mon-el's arms around me, so I tried to nod in spite of knowing I was lying. "Kaelah, hey, look at me" he asked grabbing my face, watching me, he hugged me the moment I started to shake.
I wanted to nod, but it was not true, this was not over, not until I could find a way to bring her back with me, not until my sister could promise me that everything would be all right, because that was all I needed right now.
"If you love them enough, you can get them out of there," he said, getting me to look at him.
What kind of solution was that? How were we supposed to get them out of there? I still did not understand it, but I did not have the strength to give me some other explanation, so I sat up determined to leave, wanting to find some logic to his words, but, honestly, I did not.
However, all my nervousness increased the moment we arrived where they were between convulsions, debating between life and death, which made me run beside my sister to make sure she was okay, but she did not seem to be.
"He said if we love them enough we can save them," Iris explained. "Cisco, can you send us where they are supposed to be?" She asked, watching his confusion, but finally approaching.
"Put one hand on my shoulders and the other on one on theirs," he said, so I did, not knowing if it would work.
"It was at night, a dark street lit only by a few streetlamps, the truth is that it resembled nothing I had seen before, but that was not what caught my attention, but the fact that their bodies lay in the ground on a pool of blood, so we do not hesitate to run to them with tears.
"Kara" I called her watching how she moved her hand to my face to dry my tears. "Don't dare to die on me" I asked her, seeing her smile slightly. "I mean it, I can't do this without you, I need you alive, please" I begged her to feel as her life was escaping without being able to do anything about it.
"You're strong," she whispered through tears.
"No, I'm not, we both know I'm not," I complained, looking at how she struggled to focus on me.
"I ... love ...you" he murmured, but I shook my head, because I refused to let this be a farewell, I really did not.
"I love you too," I replied, feeling her breathing stop. "Kara? ... No, no ... Kara ?! ... for Rao ... you can not leave me" I hugged her, starting to cry, feeling that a part of me had died with her, since she was my little sister, seriously, I could not lose her, not like that. "
I felt like they were hugging me back, but believing it was Mon-el I did not move, remaining in that position I was until I heard her voice asking me to calm down, to stop crying, getting me to open my eyes to look at her, I smiled slightly, at which point I realized that she was alive, that my sister was alive.
"Calm down," she whispered, wiping away my tears. "I'm fine," she assured me.
"But you were dead," I said, not sure what had happened.
"I know." She brushed the hair off my face. "But I'm here, with you." She smiled weakly. "I love you, Kaelah, and I can not allow you to do it," she said, getting me to look at her quizzically without knowing what she was talking about. .
"The mark ..." I went to speak.
"It's not going to do anything to you," she assured me, showing me her right hand, showing me the mark on it, surprising me, since I was not aware of this. "It appeared when I turned eighteen, Kaelah, and nothing happened to me," she explained before adding "You're not going to give yourself up, I'm not going to let you get away from me," she assured me, making me nodded.
"I think there's something you're not thinking about, when my brother wants something, he gets it," Mon-el warned, to which I looked at him knowing it was something to keep in mind.
There were two days left and I was supposed to surrender tomorrow, but both my sister and Mon-el refused, so I was not going to do it, and the truth is, I was glad I did not, but the biggest problem It was like keeping me hidden without being able to find me, because I was truly convinced they were going to look for me.
"I have to go," said my sister. "Mon-el, you know what I told you." She looked at him to what he nodded slightly before she left, leaving us alone in the apartment.
"What did she tell you?" I asked.
"Nothing," he replied, causing me to look at him seriously. "Kaelah, no ..." he tried to deny it, but it was too late.
"Do you intend to lock me in the DEO?" I asked. "That's the only way he can not find me, right?" I questioned him without understanding why he allowed this.
"It's for your safety, okay?" He came up to me, hugging me. "And now, we have to go," he said.
I was not surprised that everyone knew what was going to happen to me during the next few days, but I found out that it was not just that I was being detained in the DEO, I was going to be locked up in a cell that disabled the fact that they could teletransport to the interior, which made me at first deny it, but when my sister appeared and it became an order, I had to do it.
"Do you plan to leave me here all day?" I asked them trying to pity them, making a small pout that was starting to work for Mon-el, but not for my sister.
"If I promise I'll keep an eye on her, can she get out?" It was Mon-El who asked the question.
"You and several other agents," she finally answered, making me smile. "Kaelah, sweetie, I do it for you, because I don't want to lose you." She approached the glass, placing her hand on it. "I love you and I do it to keep you safe." She whispered as I placed my hand where it was hers.
"I love you too," I whispered back as I closed my eyes, I should start getting used to this, because I could assure that I would spend a lot of time in here.
