Chapter 8 – Divided we Fall
To answer your question Flash4818, I didn't have Kara side with Barry for a number of reasons, but just remember that this story will have multiple twists and turns, I do plan on making Barry and Kara on the same side in the future, but not at the moment. Also Kara will get sidelined for quite a while.
Today was the day where the Vigilante Registration Act was being signed. The current members present to sign were Supergirl, Vibe, Martian Manhunter, and Guardian.
"So, where is the rest of the Justice League members?" one of the senators asked.
"They decided that they weren't going to sign." Kara replied with a hint of sadness in her voice. She knew what was going to happen.
"Do they realize that if they want to continue being heroes, and not be hunted by us, that they need to sign?" the senator asked.
"Yes, they are fully aware." Supergirl said.
"Well, let's get this over with." Said the senator and the heroes present began to sign.
As the other heroes were signing, Barry, Oliver, Dig, and Laurel were stopping a meta-human.
"Give up, there's four of us, and only one of you!" Barry yelled from behind cover. The meta-human was able to control heat and was trying to rob a bank in Star City while Barry was helping out Oliver get ready for the war ahead.
Oliver shot the meta-human in the leg with an arrow and Barry run up and punched him across the face, knocking him out.
"Nice work Flash." Oliver said walking over to Barry as the police came in. Needless to say, they were surprised when the cops aimed their weapons at them.
"Freeze! You are under arrest!" one of the cops said.
"For what crime?" Oliver asked.
"For violating the Vigilante Registration Act. Now get on the ground, and put your hands behind your head!" the cop said again, as more police officers filed into the bank.
"Barry…" Oliver started and Barry knew exactly what he needed to do.
Barry ran so fast, the police couldn't do anything. There were about 12 officers, he disarmed them all and knocked them all out within 0.2 seconds.
"Nicely down." Oliver said as they were exiting the bank. "Laurel, Dig, and Roy are on their way to the new bunker with everything they need, all we have to do is meet them there."
"Ok, sounds good." Barry said.
That's when Supergirl landed in front of them. She had her hands on her hips and did not look happy. Also a portal opened and Vibe, Guardian, and Martian Manhunter stepped out.
"Whether you guys like it or not, you're coming with us." Guardian said.
"No, I don't think we are." Oliver said as he pulled out a tranq arrow and fired it into J'onn, taking him down. Barry then began to fight Cisco as Oliver and James started to fight. Oliver noticed that Kara wasn't getting into the fight and that made him curios.
"Cisco, I don't want to hurt you!" Barry yelled, but Cisco kept fighting. So Barry grabbed Cisco and threw him as fast as he could, without hurting him permanently, into the ground, knocking him out.
James was getting beat badly by Oliver. The two of them already got into constant arguments over Oliver's tactics, mainly on getting information, and a few other things.
Finally, Oliver was about to land the final hit to take James down, but was hit with freeze breath.
Oliver, as quick as he could, picked up his bow he just dropped, and pulled out an arrow laced with kryptonite, and fired it at Kara. But the arrow was grabbed by Barry before it hit her, and Barry dropped it on the ground.
"Let's go!" was all Barry said as he grabbed Oliver and ran them out of there.
In a secret bunker in Hub City
"What the hell were you thinking?! Kara probably knows where we are by now Barry! Why would you do that?!" Oliver was furies with Barry.
"Not now Oliver." Was all he said in reply. Laurel, Roy, and Dig came into the room that Oliver and Barry were in.
"No, we are going to do this right now! I'm sorry that I was about to shoot Kara with a kryptonite laced arrow, but she would have been fine! We needed to get out of there! I would have only weakened her for a few minutes, now she's probably hot on our tail!" Oliver yelled.
"She wouldn't do that! She wouldn't risk the… forget it." Barry was starting to get angry.
"Risk what Barry? What wouldn't Kara risk?"
"She's pregnant! Ok Oliver! Kara is pregnant! Can you honestly tell me that the kryptonite arrow would do nothing to our unborn child? Can you?!" Barry was now angry.
"Barry… I didn't know she was pregnant." Oliver said.
"Yeah, well now I have to go to war with my pregnant fiancée."
"Is that why you proposed? Because she's pregnant?" Laurel asked.
"No, I found out two days ago. She's only a month along. We were going to announce it yesterday actually, but that obviously didn't happen. The meeting was called off so we never got the chance."
"Barry, we are going to fix this, and I promise you, by the time that child is born, this will all be over." Oliver said putting his hand on Barry's shoulder.
Central City
Kara was crying. She had been for at least an hour. She was holding onto a picture of her and Barry, when they were at the park. Barry would run so fast he could take the picture and Kara wouldn't even notice except for the lightning.
That's when her computer beeped.
She got up and saw a video message was ready to be played. It was from Barry. By the looks of him in the camera, he had been crying. She looked at the date and saw it was taken about two days ago.
"hey, so yeah, if you are getting this, then the Justice League is at war with itself, and you and I have chosen opposite sides. I'm so sorry. I hope you know how much I love you, and how much this hurts me to leave you. But I want you to know, that when this is all over, I still have every intension to marry you. I have and always will love you, forever and ever. Until I see you again. I love you. Goodbye." Barry then stopped the video.
He was trying his hardest not to cry trough out the video, but he was clearly losing that battle. Kara then went to bed and was about to cried herself to sleep, she didn't know how she was going to get through the pregnancy without Barry.
But before she fell asleep, she felt someone kiss her fore head and whisper "I love you" in her ear, but when she turned around, all she saw was a flicker of lightning leave the apartment.
