Karry One Shots
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
AN: okay I want to clarify something since I have been getting a lot of people asking about this. Yes there will eventually be one shots that take place when they are superheroes. I just want to go in order with this as much as I can so the lay out is this.
College years (I don't know how many. These are more the cute dating ones)
Superhero origin stories (remember this is an alternate universe so the way one of them becomes a super hero is going to be a bit different than the TV show. One will be the same though.)
After they Become Superhero stories.
Okay now on with the next one shot.
Watching Over
It would be years before their plan was ready, but Astra had decided to check out any threats to her plan. The one she could see was Superman. Oh Astra knew who he was right away. He looked just liked his father Jor-El. Astra had went to spy on him when she saw her.
She was younger then she should be but Astra would recognize her niece anywhere. Kara Zor-El was here and alive. Astra could only assume that something went wrong with Kara's pod to make her this young. That's when spying on Superman became spying on her niece. That's why while it was dark outside and she should be miles away from where she was that she was hiding on top of a school building using super hearing and supersite to watch her niece.
Kara was outside with the boy Astra knew she was dating. A human by the name of Barry. They had a CD player playing some music and were awkwardly dancing. They had apparently entered some dance contest that was taking place on campus and were now practicing.
"We both suck at this," Kara said with a laugh to her boyfriend a smile lighting up her face as she looked at the boy.
"We can do it," Barry said, laughing.
Astra knew her niece could dance. As heiress to the house of El she was trained as a child but Kryptionan dancing and human dancing were different. It seemed Kara and Barry were both having trouble. It didn't seem to make them unhappy though as they continued to try to get the dance down smiling and laughing the entire way.
"What are you doing?" Astra heard the voice of her husband and turned around to see him floating just above her
"Get down and keep your voice down," Astra whispered pulling her husband down to the ground. "Look." Astra pointed at the dancing couple.
"Humans dancing. Who cares?" Non asked.
"Do you really not recognize my niece?" Astra asked a bit annoyed.
Non looked back at the couple taking a closer look at the girl. "Your right it is her," Non said. "Any chance of her joining us?"
"I doubt it," Astra said as the two fell to the floor to take a break. Kara laying into Barry's chest as they looked up at the sky.
"I wish we could see the stars," Kara said as she looked up. "The light of the city makes it impossible though."
"You love space don't you?" Barry asked and Kara smiled. "Why not study it? Become an astronaut or something."
"Don't need to," Kara said with a knowing smile on her face. "When I was a kid my aunt use to take me on her lap and teach me the stars. It use to be our thing." Astra heart warmed hearing Kara talk about her. "Now when I looked at the sky I remember her and home. It makes me sad and happy at the same time. Does that make sense?"
"Same way I feel when I visit my dad in jail. I'm so happy I get to see him, but sad I can't bring him home with me. Or when I remember the things I use to do with my mom. Happy memories sadden by a horrible event," Barry said. "So I understand why you can't study the sky. You love those stars. Love the old memories but it makes you sad at the same time. Not something you could do for the rest of your life."
"It strange how much you get me," Kara said going up to kiss her boyfriend.
"Oh I get it. You miss her," Non said. "That's why you're hiding out spying on her."
"I want to make sure she's safe," Astra said. "She's not using her powers. She's living like a human. I just got to know she's okay."
"I think I love you," Astra heard Barry say.
"I think I love you too," Kara said back and Astra could see it in their eyes. They might have said I think before hand, but it wasn't in doubt. They did love each other. The way they looked at each other. The way they talked. The way they touched. She had seen it before. Her Kara was in love.
'Forget the think I know I love you," Barry said after a moment. "I must because I never felt this way about anyone else."
"Same here," Kara said and a smile came across Barry's face.
"Yeah?" Barry asked and Kara nodded going to kiss him again.
'She's playing with fire. Loving a human. That boy is just going to leave her," Non said.
"I don't know," Astra said seeing the look in Barry's eye. The two had connected. 'If he does though. If he hurts her I'll kill him." Non knew his wife was serious.
"Come on Astra. We have an army to build," Non said.
"You go. I'll meet up with you later," Astra told him. "That's an order." Astra added when Non didn't leave. Non nodded and flew away.
Astra watched as Kara and Barry went back to practicing their dance routine getting better each time they did it. It was a few hours later before the two called it quits for the night and went back to their dorms.
Instead of following her niece Astra followed Barry and waited until he fell asleep. When he did she snuck in through the window and bent down to whisper into his ear. "You better keep Kara happy or you'll have me to deal with." Astra wasn't sure if the threat would reach the sleeping Barry at all but for some reason she had to do it. Afterward she left the dorm and flew away knowing she would come by to check on her niece every once in a while.
-Superflash_
The next morning Barry met Kara and Iris for breakfast with bags under his eyes. "Are you okay?" Kara asked Barry.
"I had trouble sleeping last night," Barry said. "Kept on waking up every few hours from weird dreams of your cousin and some lady who I only heard her voice threating and trying to kill me."
Kara had to laugh. "Where did the lady come from?" Kara asked and Barry shrugged.
"I don't know maybe it was Lois or something," Barry said rubbing his eyes.
"Don't worry. I'll protect you from my crazy cousin," Kara joked. 'And maybe this will make you feel better." Kara leaned over the table to kiss Barry.
"One more," Barry said when the kiss was done and Kara kissed him again.
"Okay you two are sweater than this muffin and it's making me sick," Iris joked making the two laugh as they continued with breakfast.
AN: Okay this idea came from the review Silver- Infinite and I kind of loved the idea of Astra spying on them. Even at her worst she always loved her niece so hope you enjoyed. Next chapter Barry will finally meet Alex. REVIEW.
