History in the Making

"Ms. Grant," Siobhan said, coming up to the woman while Ms. Grant gave Kara some orders. "Can I have a word? In private." The smile on Siobhan's face as she held onto her tablet showed how proud she was in the information she had obtained.

Cat Grant looked at her. "Fine," Cat sighed, leading Siobhan into her office and shutting the door. "You have five minutes."

"When I was looking at Winn's project of tracking metas I got an idea. I figured we could use the same way to track Supergirl and the Flash and I was right. They are continually running and flying towards STAR labs," Siobhan showed Cat multiple videos of a blur or a flash of lightning running towards STAR. "It must mean Doctor Wells has a connection to the two. Maybe they even had part in the explosion. They didn't show up until after it. We dig a little here we can find out so much. We can even find out who they are. Reveal their identities to the world."

Cat looked at the tablet with a frown, and then put it down. "Then what?" Cat asked bluntly, knowing she had to protect Kara and make it seem believable.

"What do you mean? CatCo gets the biggest story of the century!" Siobhan said. "Revealing who these super freaks are. It would be major."

"But then, Siobhan, what? What do you think happens once their identities are revealed – they hide. They take whatever love ones they have that do not have powers and go away forever. What happens then? There are no more headlines. No more heroes. People die. People that could have been saved." Cat folded her arms as she looked severely to the other woman. "CatCo is not in the business of causing deaths. This will be forgotten."

"But the world has a right to know who they are," Siobhan reasoned scornfully.

"No it does not," Cat said simply, with a little shrug of her shoulder. "And a little secret no one cares about who they are. All they want is Supergirl flying in the sky and the Flash running on the ground saving their lives. Inspiring hope. Being heroes."

'But…" Siobhan tried to say, seeming shocked at this reaction, but Cat cut her off again.

"I said no. This will be forgotten and never mentioned again," Cat said firmly, standing up now. "Get out of my office now and back to your job. Your real job, Miss Smythe."

Siobhan left the office in a storm. She had just given Cat the story of the century and Cat refused it! Siobhan was angry and only when she took a moment to think, to really think, did she then grin. If Cat Grant didn't want it, she would give it to someone who would. She would give it to Cat Grant's media archenemy… Right to Lois Lane.

-Superflash-

Lois Lane was sitting at her computer when the email came in from one 'Siobhan Smythe' from a CatCo email address. Curious, Lois opened it and was surprised when she read the message. Siobhan had a plan to discover who Supergirl and Flash were and was giving it Lois after Cat had denied it.

"Clark… come here," Lois called, somewhat casually from her desk and Clark moved over to his wife. "We might have a problem." Clark read the email and then nodded. "I could delete it but she might try to give the idea to someone else. Someone who would go through with it. What do we do?"

"Tell Kara," Clark answered after a moment's thought. "Let Cat Grant deal with her own employee." Lois nearly laughed, knowing Cat Grant could make no one want to deal with this 'Siobhan' again.

Lois picked up her desk phone and called Kara. "Hey Kara forwarding you an email. We might have a problem," Lois said as she sent the email on to Kara.

-Superflash-

Kara walked into Cat's office with a printed version of the email in her hands. "Ms. Grant," Kara said as Cat looked up. "Remember back during my interview with you when you were concerned because I was too close to my cousin at the Daily Planet?"

"Yes Kiera," Cat said, looking up at her assistant. "That concern has long since been gone. Should I be interested again?"

"No," Kara said. "In fact you should be please, because if Lois Lane wasn't like a big sister to me she wouldn't have given me this." Kara handed the email over to Cat who read it over, knowing what it was the moment she saw Siobhan's email address.

"And she gave you this out of the kindest of her heart? She didn't want the scoop," Cat said loftily, knowing why Lois didn't want the information to go further, knowing Kara was Supergirl and her fiancée the Flash, but wanting to know what Kara suspected, or at least pretended to suspect.

"She has the same interest in protecting Supergirl and the Flash's secret that you do," Kara, said and Cat nodded.

"Sit," Cat ordered, and Kara sat right away. Cat got on the phone and had a rather too-long conversation with Perry White at the Daily Planet, making sure Siobhan would never get a job there once she was through with her at CatCo.

Why is she making you sit and listen to this? Barry asked in Kara's mind. He must have been bored at work.

Not a clue, Kara thought back as Cat finished with Perry and then yelled for 'Sharon'.

"It's Siobhan," Kara said with a wince at the mispronunciation of Siobhan's name. "Let me."

"Stay," Cat ordered as Kara got up and she sat back down. Cat smiled, getting a little pleasure knowing she could control Supergirl so easily in her every-day form. "Sharon." Cat walked to the door of her office and pointed at Siobhan. "In here. Now."

Siobhan could hear the anger in Cat's voice as she walked into the office and saw Kara. Cat then showed Siobhan the email Kara had given her. "I was very surprised when Kara handed me this a few minutes ago," Cat said in forced-calm, making Siobhan look her in the eyes. "I told you this was dead."

"How did you get this?" Siobhan asked shocked, ignoring Cat.

Kara was unsure what to say. "Tell her," Cat said.

"Lois Lane is married to my cousin," Kara said. "She emailed it to me."

"Lois Lane is married to Clark Kent," Siobhan said, a little dumbly, but knowing that as fact.

"Yes, my cousin," Kara said, surprising Siobhan. She hadn't known that. "Lois is like a big sister to me too, really."

"And she gave that to Kiera for the same reason I said no to it," Cat said. "No one cares. She doesn't want the identities revealed either." Cat looked at Siobhan. "I know why you did this. You thought it would get you in at the Daily Planet and make me respect you."

"Well did it," Siobhan said, somewhat hopefully.

"No!" Cat bellowed. "I respect honesty, loyalty, even kindness. People like Kara." Cat pointed at Kara.

Hey she used your real name, Barry pointed, out having been paying attention to the conversation since he really was bored at work and this was far more entertaining.

"Her cousin works at the Daily Planet but I never had any doubt she was loyal to me. To my company. She's the type of employee I admire," Cat said. "You're fired. Clear out your desk and get off my property." Cat took the printed email back from the stunned Siobhan. "And don't buy a ticket to Metropolis. I had a too-long conversation with Perry just before and there's no job waiting for you there."

Siobhan stood there, unsure what to do. "Do I need to tell Kiera to call security? Get out." Siobhan turned to leave, anger at Kara starting to fill her body as she did.

"Can I go back to work now?" Kara asked, a little unsure.

"Yes," Cat said waving her hand, letting Kara go.

"What just happened?" Winn asked Kara as she left the office. "Siobhan just stormed out of here."

"She was just fired," Kara said, and then remembered about the thing Winn had going with her. "I'm sorry." She didn't know what exactly to say, so said soothingly "Oh, this is going to be hard for you. I know you two were close."

"I'd better make sure she's okay," Winn said, glancing worriedly at Kara and knowing how much this job had meant to Siobhan. "What happened?" Winn asked after a moment, wanting the story before going to comfort Siobhan so Kara filled him in. "Okay. Yeah I better go."

Well this was an interesting day, Kara said to Barry over their bond.

Yeah, Barry agreed. Far more interesting than…. Oh, Joe texted me. Bank robbery. Want in? I can feel you need to punch someone.

Nah, I'm going to ask Alex if she wants to train instead. Or if there's an actual alien on the loose who can give me a fight. Go save the day, Flash.

Post chapter note: So, I know this is a short chapter with little Karry but once again this is just a build-up to something bigger. If you can't guess to what, well remember who Siobhan is. REVIEW.
