Chapter 2: The Sole Survivor

Kara floated above the ruins of National City, the desolation below mirroring the emptiness within her. She was alone—truly, utterly alone. The once-thriving metropolis was now a graveyard, its streets devoid of life, its buildings reduced to ashes and rubble.

Grief clung to Kara like a relentless shadow. She missed the laughter of her friends and the warmth of human connection. The world had been vibrant, and now it was a silent, haunting memory.

As Supergirl, she had been a beacon of hope, a protector of the innocent. But there was no one left to protect, no one left to save. The nuclear war had obliterated humanity, and she was the only survivor—or so she thought.

Kara's powers felt meaningless in this desolate wasteland. She could fly, lift mountains, and withstand any physical force, but she couldn't bring back the world that had once existed. Her strength was futile in the face of her overwhelming grief.

Each day, she walked through the remnants of the city, the echoes of the past haunting her every step. She found herself retracing the paths she used to take with her friends, visiting places that once held cherished memories. It was as if she were trying to hold onto the past, to keep it alive in her heart.

Nights were the hardest. Alone in the cold darkness, Kara would gaze at the starless sky and wonder why humanity had allowed this destruction to happen. She couldn't comprehend the cruelty of a world that had brought about its own demise.

She whispered to the empty streets, her voice a lament for the world that had been lost. The city listened, its silence a solemn acknowledgment of her grief. The loneliness was suffocating, and she felt like the last living soul in a world that had forgotten how to live.

As she continued her solitary journey, Kara couldn't shake the feeling that she was not entirely alone. There were mysteries in this desolation, secrets waiting to be uncovered. She would search for answers, even if it meant confronting the darkest corners of a world that had lost its light.
