Karry Universe
Disclaimer: The same as always!
Note: Before I start, I do want to address something. As I am writing this chapter that I have built up to for a while now I realize that, even though I said it was completely original, I did end up using Supergirl season 1 bad guys for my main villain here. That said, I have tried to twist it up and build Indigo and the army better than Supergirl did. I hope this end pay off is better than what Supergirl gave you since we never did have a final battle between Supergirl and the Kryptonian army. Probably because Supergirl didn't have too many people backing her up, but here she has her own army in the form of the Justice League. That's is, hope you enjoy this chapter and the TWIST that will be coming up.
The Brainiac Battle
It was early morning when the communicators binged and every member of the Justice League was ready. Barry had grabbed Winn and brought him to the DEO. "Brainiac is on the move," was the first thing said. The trio of tech genius had figured out a way to track her and had informed the Justice League should the alert go out, which it did.
"What's the plan?" Hank asked.
"Cisco, Felicity and I have come up with a three-way virus," Winn said. "It's going to take time to activate though. Felicity's part is first, then mine, and then Cisco is infecting it last through the entire Internet. Once this is out she will have no place to hide. It will get her."
"We have to assume the army is going to show," Kara said.
"And come after us," Barry added.
"Astra," Hank said, and indicated for her to come over. Hank took off the bracelet. "The government might not trust you, but I do. You'll stay here and be our Kryptonian guard."
"Can I see that?" Kara held out her hand to Hank who nodded. "Karen" Kara called; Karen was on the other side of the room with Diana. "Come hare for a second." Karen came over, unsure what was going on until Kara moved fast and had the bracelet attached on the girl's wrist.
"Hey!" Karen complained, feeling weak the moment the bracelet was on her but Astra couldn't help but smile. "Take it off. I want to help."
"Not with this. You'll get yourself killed," Kara said. "Diana, can you take her to the fortress?" Kara knew Diana knew the location. "Clark has already brought Lois, the kids, and Eliza there."
Diana nodded and picked up the still complaining Karen. "This is for the best," Diana said to Karen who shut up. Diana had become a mentor to the girl and Karen refused to argue with her.
"Krypto, come," Kara said and Barry knew where she was going.
"I'm going to start patrolling the city."
"Me too," Sara said in her White Canary costume, a Kryptonite sword in her hands. All Kryptonians on the Justice League side were already wearing the anti-Kryptonite devices.
….
Kara had dropped Krypto off at the lab and sent a company-wide text to all employees not to come in. Just in case the lab was attacked. "I'm leaving Krypto here, just in case," Kara said as Cisco was typing on the computer. "Krypto, you're the guard. Protect." Krypto barked his understanding. "You guys sure you don't want to go to the Fortress?" Joe and Eddie shook their head, holding their guns.
"We have the right bullets," Eddie said.
"I'm staying right here," Iris added and gave her dad a look. Joe decided not to argue. Iris was hard to argue with when she had her mind set on something. Eddie opened his mouth but stopped when Iris gave him a look too. Better to keep the wife happy. There was no guarantee anyway that STAR labs would be attacked.
"Can't get me away," Caitlin said at the door to lab.
"What are you doing?" Kara asked.
"Setting a trap," Caitlin said. "Electricity."
"Won't work," Kara said. "She kinda runs on electricity, if you haven't noticed."
"Not for her, for the Kryptonian." Kara was about to open her mouth to argue it wouldn't work for them either but Caitlin continued "And I'm talking about Livewire-level," Caitlin said and Kara nodded, remembering how weak she was after taking that attack.
"There's no way they know what we are doing," Cisco said, thinking all these protections were unnecessary. "And by the way, Felicity and I used STAR labs and Palmer Tech satellites to connect all your earpieces through your communicators. Keep the communicator on you and everyone will hear you and you will hear everyone." Kara nodded as she went to leave.
….
Oliver looked at Thea, Paula, and Felicity. He wished he had more people with him now. "Okay so this…"
"Don't start without me," a voice said as Roy Harper walked in, red outfit present.
"Who invited you?" Oliver asked, wondering how he got in.
"I did," Thea said with a smile. "I figured we could use more help, especially since Diggle can't get here."
"Nightwing would have come as well, but he figured one of us had to stay in Bludhaven," Roy said. Oliver looked at him with a small smile, and then nodded.
"Okay these people we are fighting are fast and strong. They have all the same powers as Supergirl and Superman. We also know their weakness. The explosive arrows will disorient them for a minute, maybe less. I wish Laurel was around with her Canary Cry – that would have helped, but anyway. The glowing green arrows are made of Kryptonite – they will injure them and maybe even kill them. We have permission from Kara and Clark to kill, so aim well and try to get your arrow back afterward. We don't have an unlimited supply."
"Since when do you need permission to kill?" Roy asked, surprised.
"These aren't humans we are talking about, Roy," Thea said. "They are Kryptonians. Every one we kill is a member of an endangered species."
"A species that goes back longer than humans," Felicity added.
"Wow, that's a buzz killer," Paula said, holding onto her arrows
"But they are not the good members the species," Oliver said defiantly. "The good Krypton lives on, with Clark, Kara, Astra, Karen, and the kids. They are what are left of the once great planet. These are just monsters. Same sort of thing we deal with every week, only bigger."
"We have all the earpieces connected through the communicators," Felicity said. "You two obviously don't have one." Felicity took out two Justice League communicators. "These belong to Laurel and Ray. They left them with us when they went off with Rip. Keep them safe." Felicity handed the communicators to Roy and Paula who put them in pockets.
"We also have Wonder Woman and the Green Lantern on the team, so we should have the upper hand," Oliver added thoughtfully.
"Hate to interrupt," the group heard Cisco over the communicators. "But we have Kryptonians. They are appearing in National, Central, Metropolis, and Starling."
"Our cities," the group heard Kara say.
"This is clearly a distraction," Hank's voice was heard. The DEO, Star, and the Arrow Cave's internal speakers were connected into the communication systems as well. "Be on the look out for the real plan."
"We've got to head out," Oliver said, nodding to Felicity now as the group of vigilantes left to go take on Kryptonians.
….
Soon, every member of the Justice League was fighting a Kryptonian when he or she was given the warning. "This Brainiac somehow released four nukes," Felicity told them.
"We can't shut them down," Winn said.
"Continue working on the virus," Clark said. "Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Green Lantern, we have to grab these."
"We have them on tracker. We'll direct you," Hank said over the coms. "Once you get to them you can turn them off with a code which we have from the military already."
Kara pushed off her Kryptonian enemy and flew away fast, following the direction to the nuke. Once there she had to fly fast to catch up to it and pulled off the panel to get to the control pad. Unfortunately, a Kryptonian had followed her and pulled her off and before she knew it, the pair was locked in a laser battle astride the nuke.
….
Diana got to the second nuke, but also had a problem of having to fight a Kryptonian. The two were punching mid air. Diana got behind him and took out a Kryptonite knife she was given stabbed the man. The Kryptonian fell off and Diana went to go catch up with the nuke.
….
Clark had the same problem as Diana and Kara – a Kryptonian was stopping him from disarming the nuke. This one was a good fight however, and he had gotten a few good punches in on him. "You should join us, son of Jor-El. We will rule this planet!" the Kryptonian tried.
"Never," Clark said.
'Then you will die," the Kryptonian retorted, charging at Clark but Clark dodged and had the Kryptonian in a headlock.
"No, you will," Clark said squeezing hard on the man's neck and then throwing him from the nuke. Clark turned his attention back to the task and had to speed up and hold onto the nuke to try to get to the controls.
….
"I have two Kryptonians on me," John's, the Green Lantern's, voice was heard in the DEO. "I can't get to the nuke."
"Can anyone go and help him?" Alex called out, but the only ones who would be able to have their own nuke to take care of.
"Alex…" Hank said, noticing Astra looked ready to go but J'onn stopped her with a hand. "Give them the codes when they are ready. I'm going into the field." Alex was about to question this but then realized what Hank meant. Hank was not joining them in the fight. J'onn was. Alex nodded as Hank ran out of the DEO, confusing other agents as he gave the order: "Agent Danvers is in charge!"
"Give me the code," they heard Diana say and not long later Clark asked for them too.
"We got them right here," Alex said, reading off the codes to Diana and then a different one to Clark.
….
Oliver and Thea were racing around Starling on their bikes with two Kryptonian behind them. "Got to give STAR Labs something. These bikes are good," Oliver said, impressed as he and Thea went separate ways at a fork in the road. They were leading their Kryptonians into separate traps.
When Oliver crossed a certain point he released a smoke screen on the Krytponian that had followed him. The smoke caused the Kryptonian to pause and fly over it where a bright green arrow hit one in the heart, coming from on top of the building.
Artemis used a swinging device to swing down to the street and take her arrow out of the first Krytponian. "You know, adding you to the team was not a bad idea," Oliver said. "Speedy, did you and Arsenal get yours?"
"Got it," Speedy answered.
"There are still more out there," Oliver said, looking around. "Let's go."
….
Barry was running around fighting a Kryptonian at super speed. He was faster so he was confusing the Kryptonian and had managed to throw lightning at him. That was when a heat vision hit him. "Someone has to go to the military base where this Brainiac is and stop her from releasing more," Felicity's voice could be heard.
"Kind of diffi…" Barry paused as the Kryptonian he was fighting was hit by a fire blast. Barry thought for a moment it was Firestorm. That he was back. But paused when he saw the wings. This was not Firestorm – it was Firehawk! "You do not know how happy I am to see you! Stick close to White Canary. She has a com." Barry indicated Sara, who was fighting a Kryptonian with her sword and heavy use of a modified Canary Cry. "Not too close. Don't want to destroy your hearing."
"Got it," Jax answered, sending more fire blast at the Kryptonian. He didn't know what came over him to make him jump in but he saw the big fight in the street and had to help. "I see you didn't go off with that time traveling weirdo in the end, too." Jax added to Sara, who smirked.21
"Too busy to take time off," Sara responded as she let off another Cry, crippling the Kryptonian she was battling and shocking Jax.
Barry ran off to the military base Felicity has sourced as Brainiac's current location, running in easily and punching the strange blue lady inside. "Brainiac 8, I assume?" Barry said, standing before her.
"I go by Indigo now," the blue woman replied, crawling to her feet in an almost animalistic way. "So the fast one comes to take me on? I expected Kara. How was Disney by the way? Good time?" Barry went to run at her but Indigo threw him off and Barry's communicator fell to the floor. "Who are you talking to in there?"
"Barry, you just have to hold her off for a bit longer," Felicity's voice was heard as Indigo cocked her head at the thing on the floor and picked it up. Before Barry could react she had put her hand through the communicator before using her other to hold Barry back by the neck; showing surprising strength as she lifted the Flash off the floor.
….
Felicity was typing away with a speed to match Barry's, completing her part of the virus as she looked at the data streaming on the screen. That was when the hand came at her through the monitor. She didn't have the time to react, or even cry out as it wrapped around her neck. Instinctively she tried to beat at the thing, to loosen its grip but to no avail – the grip got tighter, constricting her breath.
"I need your part Felicity," Winn said, unawares of Felicity's struggle as she gave up trying to move the hand, realizing what was going to happen, and used her last few moments to complete her part of the virus. As she pushed the enter button, Indigo snapped her neck, not a second too soon as she had just sent her part to Winn to continue. As her body crumpled to the floor, blood began to trickle from the noticeable wound on her throat. Indigo hadn't just broken her neck; she had torn her throat apart.
"Nice job Felicity! We got it from here," Winn said, but there was no one left to answer. Felicity Smoak was dead and none of her friends even knew it yet.
….
Kara was in heated eye battle with her Kryptonian still, putting all her anger in it that she somehow managed to overpower him. Throwing her eyes beams directly into his eyes and burning them out, the Kryptonian falling off the warhead. "Code!" Kara panted as she flew back up to the nuke and held onto it. She felt weak now but she wouldn't give up. She knew Diana and Clark had already disarmed their nukes and were already going back to the battle.
Alex gave her the code. Kara typed in the first three numbers but in her weakened state slipped from the nuke. In shock, she didn't begin to fly until a few seconds later, meaning it was an effort to get back to the nuke, but she was determined as she reached the panel once more and put in the last three digits. The nuke fell out of the sky, now disarmed. "I'm going to go help Barry," Kara said into the coms, directing the falling metal safely to the ground before flying to the military base, getting there as soon as Indigo took her hand out of the communicator. Kara pushed the other hand off her husband.
Nice timing, Barry thought to her. He had been trying to phase through the hand but found it difficult. Indigo wasn't made out of anything of this earth, after all.
"One down," Indigo said however, with an awful smirk on her fact, to the confusion of the two. They didn't ask for what she meant though, diving into a fight with the computer woman.
….
John was still fighting the two Kryptonian when J'onn showed up and took one. With one now having to fight the Martian, John was able to use his ring to defeat the other one and fly to the nuke. Using the power of his ring he made it stop in the air.
"I can't hold onto this for long," John said. He was right near the panel as Alex gave him the code. He disarmed the nuke and then looked over to the fighting going on between the two aliens.
John used his ring to trap the Kryptonian and J'onn took them out with ease. "Thanks," J'onn said and Jon nodded. 'There's more."
"How many Kryptonians were there in this army?" John asked.
"A lot," J'onn stated.
"Then we have a lot of fighting to do," John said, giving his comrade a nod before going off.
…
"I'm done with my part," Winn said, sending the entire thing to Cisco. "It's all on you, man."
"Don't worry I got this," Cisco could be heard as he started typing.
…
Barry and Kara were surprisingly having trouble with Indigo. She was a fast and strong opponent who was more than capable of taking on both of them at the same time. Kara got thrown down more than she'd like to admit and when Barry went to toss lighting, Indigo easily dodged it. "Who else do you have in there?" Indigo said reaching her hand through the communicator again.
"Just a bit longer guys," Crisco said at the same moment.
…
At STAR Labs, Cisco was shocked when a blue hand shot out of the computer. Joe and Eddie aimed their guns but couldn't fire. They did not want to hit Cisco or the computer. Caitlin and Iris went to try and pulled it off but found they could not get the hand from around Cisco's neck.
Krypto barked and growled and Caitlin and Iris moved away. Krypto flew up and bit the arm, hard. The hand detached and disappeared. Cisco took a breath and rubbed his neck. "Good dog," Iris said, going to pet Krypto, and Caitlin joined her.
"Yeah… very good dog," Cisco breathed, but wouldn't dare pet the dog. "Remind me to get you a steak for that one." Krypto's ears perked up at that and he gave Cisco appreciative looks. Caitlin laughed.
"Maybe you will make friends with Krypto after all," Caitlin said.
"Virus," Joe reminded the group, and Cisco got back to work.
….
"Youch!" Indigo screamed, removing her hand. "Stupid dog."
Kara laughed with a smile as both her and Barry said at the same time "Good dog." That seemed to anger Indigo as she went to attack the two again.
"Guys, it's ready," Cisco said to the two a moment later.
We got to get her to connect to the Internet again, Barry thought to Kara who shared an idea. Barry smiled. "Hey Windows Vesta." He could almost feel Cisco from this distance rolling his eyes at the terrible pun name. "You're nothing but a glorified computer," Barry said, and Indigo went to attack him but Barry ran around her. "Too slow!"
"Not fast enough, Indigo," Kara said as she had picked up a cellphone from the body of a dead officer while Barry had Indigo distracted and dropped it near her, pretending it was an accident
Indigo looked at the two, knowing this double team would be hard to continue against. "You'll never be able to stop me!" Indigo said. "You can not even catch me." Indigo knew she had to leave now and put her hand into the cellphone Kara had 'dropped', ready to go back and hide in the Internet and figure out a new game plan. The minute she touched the connection though she screamed and removed her hand.
It wasn't solid anymore. It looked like she was breaking apart and it started to go up her arm. "No!" Indigo cried, falling to the floor. "No! Without me you wouldn't even be here." Indigo said, looking at Kara with a laugh before falling completely to the floor. Her body completely disappearing.
"I think she's dead," Barry said, never having seen anything like that. The closest would be when Copycat died and all her clones melted. What did she mean by that? You wouldn't be here without her?
I don't know. But what did she mean by 'one down'? Kara asked and Barry nodded. That had been strange. There's still a Kryptonian army who doesn't know its leader is dead. Going back out. Kara didn't wait another moment as she flew, but Barry got an idea.
"Hey Alex, does the DEO still have that mutated Kryptonite that Eobard made?" Barry asked as he went to pick up his fallen communicator.
"Yeah why would you…?" Alex paused as she realized Barry's idea. "You know, sometimes with all the other geniuses in the group we forget how smart you are."
"Not sure if that a compliment or an insult. Coming to get it," Barry said, running back to the DEO to grab the Kryptonite mutation. He then went to where Diana was fighting with a Kryptonian and touched it against that Kryptonian. The guy suddenly stopped, looking around. His memory gone, just like Kara's had been when she had been exposed to this over a year ago.
Barry tossed the rock to Diana who easily caught it. "This will take away their memories for a time. Start touching it to Kryptonians. I'll be around to collect them," Barry said and Diana smiled as Barry took the Kryptonian she had been fighting back to the DEO.
It didn't take long for the plan to be finished. Diana was fast and once Kara, Clark, J'onn, and John were free to help, they started to help Barry take them to the DEO. The battle was done.
-Superflash-
Oliver, Thea, Paula, and Roy were walking back into the Arrow Cave when things were done, pleased on a job well done. "Felicity, you have been…" Oliver paused when he finally saw Felicity on the floor and ran up to her. "Felicity?" Oliver said taking the body in his arms. "God! No, this place was safe…. No. You can't be…" He tried to wipe the blood from her mouth, but it had already dried in the time since her death.
"Olly…" Thea said tears forming in her eyes as she watched Oliver over Felicity body. Roy put his arms around her. "She's… she's gone Olly."
"No, no, no, how?" Oliver asked, anger and sorrow in his voice, his eyes red from emotions. The sudden shock. He hadn't even given any thought to someone protecting her. The Arrow Cave was hidden. Neither this Brainiac nor the Kryptonian army should have known where it was. How could this have happened?
Paula took a step back, wiping a tear away. She didn't know Felicity as well as the other, but she had liked the tech nerd. "How did this happen?"
"I don't know," Thea said crying into Roy's shoulder now.
-Superflash-
Barry smiled. After all the Kryptonians were locked away, everyone had gone to STAR to party. There was one person Barry had to talk to though: Jax. He was sitting outside the building, looking up to the sky in thought. "Planning on leaving without even joining the party?" Barry asked, startling the young meta. "So what made you jump in? I thought you didn't want to be a hero."
"I saw all of you fighting and these guys attacking the city and I don't know…" Jax said. "You look like you needed help so I helped." Jax thought back on the battle. He and Sara had been fighting together, Jax having more power obviously but Sara was good with her Kryptonite sword. It had felt right. "I liked it though. Being a part of a team again."
"Well after this I'm sure no one will object to letting you in the Justice League," Barry said.
"You said the Justice League is for heroes. I'm not sure if I'm a hero," Jax said and Barry put a hand on his shoulder.
"You jumped in to help us when we needed help. You probably saved lives. You're a hero, but if you don't feel like one yet… work on it," Barry said and Jax nodded. "Now there's a party going on inside. Have some fun." Jax smiled, about to leave when he turned back to Barry.
"What exactly was the battle about?" He asked.
"What do you mean?" Barry replied, curious.
"Everyone has motive. The guys who turned me into Firehawk had motive to make a Firestorm; these Kryptonians and this Indigo woman must have had motive for something. I heard Astra, I think that's her name, mention something about a Myriad, but that's dead in the water now…" Jax shrugged.
"We never found out the whole plan," Barry replied truthfully. "Indigo wanted to release the prisoners, start some sort of nuclear war, but what her intentions were beyond that we may never know." Now it was Barry's turn to shrug. "We were prepared though; when we knew she had released the DEO prisoners, we were prepared."
"Cool," Jax smiled, giving Barry a little nod before leaving to join the party in the Labs.
Barry took out his cellphone and dialed a number. He was surprised when Thea answered Oliver's cell. "Hey Thea, we have a party in full swing here," Barry said, not knowing what was going on over there. "Want me, Kara, and Clark to come pick you guys up?"
"Barry, oh, it's just…" Thea cut herself off and Barry could hear the emotion.
"What's wrong? What's going on?" Barry asked concerned.
-Superflash-
Kara was smiling as she sat in the very crowded lab. Clark, Diana, and herself had gone to get Lois, Eliza, Karen, and the kids from the fortress. They had taken the bracelet off Karen and put it back on Astra, who seemed happy to only have to use her powers to help get her old army back in jail. Astra was happy without the powers now it seemed. She'd never had them back on Krypton, after all.
Alex and Sara were together. Sara had gotten minor injuries and Alex was insanely looking after her. Sara laughed as she kissed her girlfriend.
Krypto was following Cisco around with unusually big, round, eyes. He wanted his promised steak. "Okay, what's going on?" Kara finally asked as Cisco sat down and Krypto put a paw on his lap. Her dog never liked Cisco.
"Cisco promised Krypto a steak for saving him," Caitlin said with a smirk.
"You better get him that steak," Kara warned Cisco. "You do not break a promise to a Kryptonian dog." Cisco sighed, wishing he hadn't opened his big mouth but nodded. "Oh and he likes it medium rare." Cisco nodded once again, wondering where he could order a steak.
Jason and Ella seemed fascinated with John. John smiled as he showed the kids the ring. It blinked. "It needs recharging," John explained.
"You have to recharge that thing?" Clark asked, surprised. He had been watching his kids interact with John, an arm around his wife. "How do you do that? Plug it in or something?" John smirked as he stood up. Everyone in the room watched curiously.
A light appeared and the power source for the ring appeared in it. "In brightest day, in darkness night," John started putting his ring up to the lantern. "No evil shall escape my sight. May those who worship evils might. Beware my power, Green Lantern light!' The green light got so bright that people closed their eyes and when the light was gone, the green lantern power source that had appeared was gone and John's ring was glowing green before dying down, back to normal.
"That seemed… far-fetched," Clark now pointed out casually.
"That was so cool," Cisco counteracted, with a smile as Jax walked in to join the celebration.
It wasn't long later that Kara got distracted as people were deciding where to order food. She felt Barry's emotions suddenly change and he appeared in the lab. He was on the other side and the two just looked at each other. What happen? Kara asked him, suddenly feeling dread.
Felicity, Barry thought back solemnly.
No..., Kara said but Barry replayed the conversation with Thea in his mind. How they had found Felicity, and because of what had almost happened to Cisco, Barry had figured out what happen to her.
That's what Indigo meant by one down, Barry thought to her.
Kara ran fast past everyone in the room and ran into Barry's arms. Tears forming in her eyes as she cried into her husband's shirt. Barry put his arms around her and tears formed in his eyes too. The husband and wife stood together, weeping.
All the talking and partying in the room die down as everyone looked at them. "We're being left out of something aren't we?" Diana asked and members of the group nodded.
"Kara? Barry?" Lois said cautiously, trying to gain their attention. "What's wrong?"
The pair looked at each other and broke apart, knowing they had to do this. Barry kept an arm around his wife as they looked at the group. "We lost a member of the superfamily earlier," Barry said shocking everyone. "Felicity is dead."
"What?!" Winn said shocked, standing up. "But she was on the computer like us. How can she be dead?"
"The computer wasn't so safe," Cisco said, rubbing his hand on his neck as though he could still feel the hand there, solemnly realizing, like Barry, how Felicity must have died. "Krypto saved my life. Felicity didn't have a Krypto with her." Krypto barked happily at Cisco. He knew everyone was getting sad but he wanted his promise, but he also understood he had helped save a life today, even if others weren't so lucky. "Yes, I'll get you the freaking steak." Cisco barked at the dog, and Krypto gave him a look, but laid down. Understanding the emotions now in the room. He would be a patient dog.
Everyone sat around tears forming in his or her eyes depending on how well they knew Felicity. Sara especially was upset, and she and Alex quickly left the room; Sara on a one-track mind to head directly to Starling to see her friends in person, Alex wanting to come in tow, even if she didn't know the Arrow team as well.
The party was instantly over. Celebration was gone.
-Superflash-
Everyone had gone to Starling for the funeral. Kara and Barry sat there listening to people and talking to friends. Remembering times spent with Felicity. The tech nerd's single mother was in tears the entire time, Detective Lance sitting next to her, and Sara next to him. Oliver had been especially quiet, sitting at the back instead of the front, not wanting the publicity or association this funeral presented and after everything was over Oliver came running up to Barry.
He threw his communicator at the Flash, Barry not having expected it and was hit in the head by it, Kara catching it however, before it hit the floor. "What was that for?" Barry asked; trying not to sound annoyed at his friend, rubbing his head.
"I quit," Oliver said simply.
"The Justice League?" Barry asked, kind of dumbly.
"The League, being Arrow, the mayor race… everything. I'm done," Oliver said, raising his hands.
"Oliver. Felicity wouldn't…" Kara started.
"No!" Oliver said, cutting Kara off. "Felicity is dead because of me. I dragged her into this. It's my fault and I am done. I'm out. Just leave me alone." Oliver turned and left, jumping on his motorcycle driving away.
Thea, Paula, and Roy were not far off as they heard everything. "What are you going to do now?" Barry asked, wondering if Thea was out too now.
"Felicity wouldn't want us to give up." Thea said knowing that as fact as she rubbed her red eyes. She had to honor her fallen friend who had given her life to save the world. "Speedy continues. Someone needs to protect this city." Thea turned to Paula. "I know you wanted to be trained by Arrow, but as he's throwing a hissy fit... Well, if you want to leave I will understand."
"I made a promise to help protect this city and you're going to need help," Paula said. "Artemis and Speedy." Thea smiled, glad Paula was staying on.
"I'd stay but Nightwing needs me back," Roy said solemnly, looking at Thea. "I'll come back when I can. I promise." Thea nodded.
Kara and Barry watched the scene silently. "Thea," Kara said holding out Oliver's Communicator. She quickly put it on unavailable mode. "For when he comes to his senses. He's always welcome back to the team." Thea took the communicator, nodding.
"And if you need us…" Barry started, but Thea interrupted.
"I know how to get you," Thea said, a small smile on her face nonetheless as there was nothing more needed to be said. The superfamily was one member down and Oliver was taking himself out for now, but it would survive. They would survive.
Post Chapter Note 1: If you thought the last death was controversial I am waiting to hear Olicity fans crying out. Now please let me explain this death. This fight was big. I couldn't have everyone come out of it okay. I needed to kill a character that would affect our heroes, but also not change my story over all. Felicity was the perfect candidate there, most particularly as I want to give the original pairing of Black Canary and Green Arrow the shot it never had in the show, apparently. Speaking of, I saved Laurel by having her go with Rip, but time had to even itself out. It had to claim a member of Team Arrow. Laurel was saved so another member of Team Arrow had to die. So hope my reasons make sense to you and hope you enjoyed this chapter. Please don't bite my head off for killing 'Overwatch' – this is the Karry Universe, not the Arrowverse after all.
Post Chapter Note 2: Don't worry about Oliver. Someone will throw him a bone to get him back into his Green Arrow ways. You'll see…
Please REVIEW
Next Time on Karry Universe:
Looking to the Future- There's something wrong with Kara so it's up to Caitlin to figure out what that is. When they do, everyone is in for a rather surprise.
Karry Master OUT!
