Three days had passed, changes erupting all around them but despite the chaos despite the turmoil their lives remained intertwined just as their fingers had as they both looked on in Lena's office at L-Corp. Due to Sam's leave, with good measure necessary for her's and Ruby's relocation, Lena had to take up the mantle with her company again leaving Catco in the hands of James Olsen. James, the ex of the Luthor's whom hadn't taken the change between very well. It left quite a bit of animosity between them and furthermore between Kara and him.
Sure the blonde and him had once taken a run at a relationship but it didn't take fruit and then Kara had got involved with the daxamite prince… Ohhhh that mongrel of a frat boy. Lena never could understand the logic with that relationship between her best friend and him but then Kara had explained how their planets were so very similar and part of it had been because it was familiar to her. The other reason, hadn't been one the CEO had expected.
Kara had gone beet red with that explanation and Lena had to admit maybe she'd laughed her ass off a little too much at that conversation over coffee and Noonan's in her office at her couch. The poor blonde was stuttering all over her words putting her face in her hand and looking away far too often and Lena was just dying of explosive laughter at her expense. The so very logical response had her spitting out her coffee having to stand up and look away from her best friend when Kara had just simply said…'I didn't break anything when we were...in the um...bed'.
Now, that had constituted Lena's need to remedy this very deep seated issue and after a little rather awkward conversation with the Director of the DEO that happened to be the same woman whom was sister and sole protector to her innocent Kara she got a few answers but far more questions. She recalled that conversation well..
"Okay, Lena...you do realize you are calling me from my place of office to discuss my little sister's sex life..WHICH I'd like to know very little of and not dare to think about. So, as rather disturbing this is to discuss, what do you need?"
"That's the thing Alex. Your sister explained, well she tried to without dying of embarrassment, how her and Mon El…"
"Don't bring up that pompuss ass turned married cheat to me please Luthor.."
"As I was attempting to say, without you interrupting me.."
"I'm trying. It's a work in progress."
"There you go again. Anyway….that their...strengths…"
"Okay, I am gonna stop you right there."
"Didn't we just discuss your interrupting issue?"
"We did but I'm dismissing that for now. He screwed her be…"
"I didn't need to think about that Danvers."
"Think I wanted to? As I was saying...because she didn't break his nose."
"What does that have to do with intimacy?"
"I'm getting there. Shut up for a minute geese. She didn't have control of her strength when she was little. She broke a guy's nose kissing him."
"Did she break anything else when she…"
"EW! Fucking shut up about that thought! UGH! I need mouthwash now. She never did."
"So that frat brat was her…"
"Yes. Is that your phone?"
"Yes. It's your sister."
"Do I need to let you go? I see you have that song as her ringtone now hmm?"
"It fits. It's a text not call. We are finishing this conversation."
"Like I can avoid this disgusting process of mental depravities thank you."
"Like I want to think about his stick in her…"
"GROSS! Fucking no Luthor no! Finish this question before I hang up on you to gag."
"Her strength dampened...the red sun lamps right?"
"Hold on hold on hold on….YOU want ME to give YOU a few sun lamps to weaken my sister?"
"Thought we got passed this Alex."
"We did, just that overprotective big sis in me. You want the specs on the lamps so you can toy with them in your dungeon?"
"My lab. It doesn't have bars."
"Four walls make a chamber."
"Cute."
"I try. That song is now stuck in my head thank you."
"I need to buy a donut shop for her."
"You already bought a media company for her and lets not forget the office of floral."
"I'm a hopeless romantic when it comes to your sister. Now...now that I think about it, you think rose petals leading into a…"
"LA LA LA LA LA! NO LUTHOR NO!"
"Should I tell you about how she heard both you and your ex…"
"If you value your very twisted demented soul I advise you not to continue that sentence. I will send you the specs through your phone and leave lamps with Jess your loyal assistant. Do I need to have her sign a NDA form too?"
"Now that I think about it, that wouldn't hurt."
"Does she know Kara flies there on a bus?"
"You gonna hold that one over her head as her inability to keep her own secret?"
"Nah...just for a couple more decades. Look, we are dealing with a lot of alien attacks no thanks to that bitch and her brother so I will have to cut this chat short."
"I can aid with that. I will be in later to work on a couple prototypes for new suits for your agent…"
"I get first dibs. Make mine fly."
"Getting ahead of yourself aren't you Director?"
"You are the one calling me about red sun toys so you can boink my sister."
"I want to make sweet passionate sexually gratifying…"
"I'm gonna KILL YOU LUTHOR! No more! I can't handle those images! LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA…"
"Ta ta Director."
Lena smirked at that sipping her coffee seeing out of the corner of her eye the beautiful blonde quirking one eyebrow up at her. She turned her head slightly still sipping her coffee with the smile still on her lips locking eyes with her. My how Kara was squirming suddenly.
"I….what are you thinking about?"
"Lay..over." Lena said removing the cup from her lips. The reporter was still looking at her confused.
"I don't think I wanna ask anymore." Kara turned back to the TV and her eyes shook with worry. "This is getting worse Lena." The Luthor looked back at the screen and that's when she saw whom had appeared on it.
"Isn't that one of the agents that…" Lena noticed she was the only one in the office now. "Shit…" Her emeralds were glued to the screen widening as she watched Supergirl appear on the scene. Before she could pick up her phone her coffee dropped out of her hand as she watched Kara's body dropped to her knees with her figure radiating several waves of a glow that Lena knew was bad. She dove for her phone looking back up to see Supergirl's body struggle to hold up against her own heat vision fired at her trying to protect herself with her cape. Lena dialed the frequency Alex had given her for emergencies slipping the ear com in her ear. "Alex?"
"We had to evacuate Luthor. Supergirl was weakened far too much. I have agents pulling her back to the DEO now!" Lena heard the Director try to explain but her end was scratchy due to being on the field. "Lena...get down here...now! Bring your modified suit for her. She's in bad shape.." Lena struggled to breathe as the line went quiet until she heard. "SHOOT HIM DOWN! GET BACK! WE NEED TO GO NOW!"
"I'm on my way Alex!" Lena wasted no time and ran from her office with her shoulder bag thrown over it tossing the box in her bag running over to Jess's office. "Eve? I need you to take over! I'm taking Jess with me! It's an emergency!"
"You got it Miss Luthor." Eve muttered and Lena dashed into her old assistants new office.
"I heard. I'm coming." Jess told her running out and Lena ordered her to go down a different hall. "Detour?"
"We need to. I will explain on the way." Lena lead her and Jess to a private elevator and they lowered down to the garage with both of them running out and she heard her second chair gasp. "Yep, we are taking the Lambo." Lena fished the faub out of her bag and clicked the button to unlock the doors with both panels sliding upward at the sides. "Buckle up."
"This car is heavenly." Jess mentioned with both of them in the car now and the doors coming back down to lock in place. "I didn't know you ever drove."
"I own twenty different model cars, four motorcycles, a chopper, a jet, two houseboats, four regular boats, and a yacht. Anytime you want to borrow any of them, minus the jet and chopper, let me know." Lena started up the engine as the stereo came on and the track that seemed to fill both their minds the most came on.
"Isn't this song.." Jess began with Lena nodding as she pulled the vehicle out of the parking spot clicking on her garage door opener taking off quickly out of the lot.
"Andres Badler, yeah. It's Kara's fault."
"Oh you mean Supergirl's?" Lena slightly turned her head to see Jess nod to her looking at her then the road. "Is she okay?"
"Not sure. I do know she better start learning not to take on everything."
"You continue to live to remind her of that. Besides...I like having you back at L-Corp."
"Thanks Jess." Lena focused on the road and accidentally ran through a red. "Shit."
"Learn to pay attention to the greens though Boss. Don't want you getting this towed for not remembering to stop on those."
"I'll try to do that."
"She's not okay is she?" Jess' voice started to crack some and Lena's wasn't far off from doing the same as she clenched the steering wheel.
"An agent that turned on the agency she and her sister work for was altered. He drained part of Kara's lifeforce and power." Lena explained picking up speed some toward the DEO.
"It's that Mercy and her…?" Jess saw her boss nod. "Shit." They both noticed the radio click off as they slid into a massive garage under a building. "What is this place?"
"Where you will be filling out a shit load of forms. Sorry by the way and don't feel bad I had to do the same."
"Whatever I have to do Lena. Whatever it takes to help Kara."
They pulled into a spot and Lena turned off the engine with the doors opening and both women jumping out with their bags. Agent Vasquez was running over to them with several agents in tow. Lena shook her hand and they followed the team to the doors to be scanned in.
"Med bay?" Lena asked and Susan nodded shaking Jess' hand. "Have her fill them out later okay?"
"The Director needs you there now Lena. Something went wrong on the way back here." Lena didn't need to be told twice and took off at full speed down the hall to the med wing. Jess and Susan weren't far behind her. Supergirl would survive dammit, they had so much more to learn about one another and so much more time to live for each other. This was not death's judgement day...
