Karry Universe
Disclaimer: As always…
IMPORTANT NOTE PLEASE READ: I cannot believe I have to address this, but I do. Let me start this note by saying that I write this story for three reasons. The first one is for my own personal enjoyment. The second reason is because plotting, writing, and editing stories and ideas are something my friend/beta Terrance Sigma and I love to do together. The third and finale reason is for the enjoyment of you, my readers. I do take into account what I think you will like when I am plotting, yes, but that being said this story is first and foremost MY story. My universe based on the Arrowverse but not what you've seen on TV. What I want to happen, happens here. If I think something different should happen like a couple getting together, someone being saved from death, or someone dying, I am going to find a way to make it happen. In the last chapter I killed off Felicity. Like I said after I killed James, it's not easy to kill a character, but in the end I decided it was the right move for my story. Did I expect people to be upset? Hell yes. Did I think I might lose a reader or two? Of course. Nevertheless, in the end, I had to do what was right in my view. I did not expect the response of ONE reader to become so explosively hostile, and because of what this one reader said, I have to address this here. IT IS NOT OKAY TO CYBER BULLY ME OR MY BETA FOR DECISIONS MADE IN THIS STORY OR EVEN HIS. IT'S NOT EVEN APPROPRIATE TO CYBER BULLY OTHER AUTHORS HERE FOR THEIR WORK. Before anyone says I am overreacting I have to say that this person cursed me out, called me names including, but not limited to, being silly and immature (those weren't the worst but they are the ones I feel comfortable revealing), had the nerve to demand I apologize for killing off Felicity (something I will not do since apologizing means I did something wrong which I did not), and then wrote another nasty review to warn people away from my story. When my beta saw all this he told her to back off and she went off on him too. Then when I blocked her she came back as a guest reviewer to once again yell at me. This is cyber bullying and it is unacceptable behavior. If a decision I made ruined the story for you and it's no longer fun to follow, feel free to stop reading. Don't warn others away just because it no longer meets your needs. This story is supposed to be fun for all. If you feel you need to address me I am more than willing to have a CIVIL conversation regarding my decisions with anyone, but what this person did was mean, cruel, hostile and a complete overreaction. Remember we are talking about fictional characters in a fictional world.
Note 1: For this chapter I am using an OC myself and my friend Kimie (TheLovelyDanish) made together. I hope you like – he's rather unique to say the least.
Note 2: If you haven't read it yet, my Beta did a crossover with this story in his Power Girl story last week and I suggest you read it, its chapter 14 of his story and called 'The Karry Universe'. References will occasionally pop up to that here now.
Looking to the Future
Kara blinked as the red light hit her eyes. She had been following an odd lead and walked into a building only for a cage to go around her and red light to hit her. She was fearful at first, but then noticed she felt no weaker, unlike when the Master Jailer had trapped herself and her earth hopping double. Looking for the source of the red light she found it came from a lamp with some red sheeting over, causing the light to go, well, red.
"Hah, I got you," a middle-aged man with brown hair cried, laughing. "I knew you would come so I set this trap. Red light takes away the powers." The man laughed again. "Because I am the Master Planner."
Do you need me? Barry asked. He and Krypto were taking care of a small fire as Kara had gone to deal with this.
Nope I got this, Kara thought back, wondering where this was going but sure she could deal with this 'Master Planner' character easily enough.
"And now you will watch my master plan come to light," the so-called Master Planner said, moving to a machine. "I will use this money sucker to take all the pennies out of the economy. Once the pennies are gone, the economy will crash and burn."
Kara was looking at the guy shocked and confused. "He did just say pennies, right?" Cisco asked in her ear. "He is aware pennies are worthless?"
As Master Planner continued talking about what he would do once the economy crashed Kara got bored. She was in a cage she could break from easily, with a man who clearly belonged in the nut house. "Okay, that's it," Kara said moving the bars aside and stepping out of the cage to the surprise of her so-called villain. "This started out pretty well. You got me. You could have had me, but that…" Kara pointed at the lamp "is pathetic. It doesn't do anything and your plan?" Kara took a step closer shaking her head in anger.
"Your plan. I mean come on, even if that machine could work, which I doubt it can, I mean pennies. Seriously? No one uses pennies. No one would care if you took every penny in the world." Kara's voice got louder as she continued yelling at the shocked man. She even went and punched a hole in the machine. Her fist went right through, indicting to Kara it was not metal but plastic. Metal would have bent at the strength she used but not broke.
Master Planner took steps back before turning and running out. "Oh now he runs," Kara said annoyed rolling her eyes.
"Let him go, Kara" Caitlin sighed over the com. "The guy is harmless. Obviously a waste of time."
Kara sighed too, looking around the evil lair and noticing Master Planner had pictures of other villains on the wall. H2-No was there along with Clyde, too, but what really pissed her off was the large photo of the Reverse-Flash. She went and ripped it to little pieces before leaving the building.
-Superflash-
It was a few minutes later when Caitlin looked at the computer in thought. "What do you think Kara and Barry have been up to?" Caitlin said out loud to Cisco, the only other person in the room. "They've been kind of secretive lately. I mean what is Barry doing in that lab every night, for instance?" Caitlin turned around to find Cisco had not been paying attention, still working on his latest costume. "Cisco?!"
Cisco jumped as Caitlin yelled his name. "What?" Cisco asked turning to his friend.
"You weren't paying attention," Caitlin groaned.
"I heard you," Cisco said. "Blah-blah-blah, what are they doing, blah-blah-blah." Cisco rolled his eyes. "They are the bosses, Caitlin and basically billionaires. They can do whatever the hell they like."
"You don't think it's strange they are keeping it a secret from us," Caitlin asked. "We were friends before they were the bosses and 'basically billionaires'."
"You should find something else to do with your time," Cisco waved her off, going back to work.
"At least I'm not working on my death certificate," Caitlin retorted, leaning back in her chair. "She's going to kill you."
"She's going to love it," Cisco said defensively. "We've been talking about making her a new costume for ages."
"No, we have been talking about re-making her costume with added features so we can monitor her," Caitlin pointed, out shaking her head. "Not completely redesigning it."
"This is perfect though," Cisco said, moving back so Caitlin could see the costume better.
The costume was an off-white color. Instead of a skirt he had pants attached to it and a dark red line going from the bottom of the pants to the top left corner of the shirt. It also supported a dark red cape and on the right hand side was the symbol of the house of El. A lot smaller then what Kara currently supported. It would be hard to see from far off and the color scheme was changed to fit the rest of the costume. "Too bad I wasn't around when she made her original. I could make an awesome mask for this, but what's the point since everyone knows her face."
"I'm going to repeat: she's going to kill you," Caitlin said shaking her head before adding. "Look, I get that the other Earth-jumping Kara's outfit was good, I liked it too, but our Kara? The one who's supported blue and red for all her Supergirl career? You won't be so lucky."
Before Cisco could answer they were silenced as Kara walked in through the back entrance in her outfit nonetheless. Neither of them had been tracking where she was so hadn't suspected her being quite so close. "Can you believe that guy? That's the type of villain we get after Indigo and her army? I mean come on!" Kara lightly kicked a chair. "I mean…" She stopped as she finally looked up and noticed the outfit. "What is that and why does it have my family's crest on it."
Caitlin lightly laughed leaning back ready to watch the show as Cisco took a breath. "I was going to surprise you with this another day, but well…" Cisco paused holding out his hand at the costume. "It's yours. I made you a new outfit."
"Who told you to do that?" Kara complained. "And why the hell would you make that?!" Anger was building up in Kara; she had felt irritated all morning for no particular reason in fact. "You changed the color scheme. It's no longer blue. You took the symbol off – it's important on my chest and you reduced its important. You made a new cape too?"
"This one is made of up of the finest materials Earth has to offer. It can survive anything," Cisco tried starting to see this was not going well but was determined to make Kara like the costume.
"Mine is from my home planet," Kara countered, her hand balling into a fist as anger continued building. "It's made of far better material than this planet has to offer." Her eyes now lit up. "And it was Kal-El baby blanket." Kara let out a heat vision right at the costume, surprising the duo and didn't stop until the whole costume was in flames. She then ran into normal clothes and out of the labs to her office.
Caitlin didn't waste another second before running to the fire extinguisher and putting the costume out. The two took a breath as the fire faded and waved away the smoke. "My masterpiece!" Cisco said, looking over the burnt remains.
"That's your invincible cape?" Caitlin asked, noticing it was burnt beyond recognition, hanging off the remains of the costume.
"Just say I told you so," Cisco sighed, shaking his head.
"I told you so," Caitlin smirked not being able to help herself, but feeling slightly shaken by Kara's attitude nonetheless.
"Maybe in a few years when Karen's ready…" Cisco sighed, more to himself now.
At that moment Barry and Krypto came in, Krypto running instantly to his dog basket. "What happened here?" Barry asked waving smoke out of his eyes and indicating the charred remains. "This looks worst than the fire I just came from…"
"You don't know?" Cisco asked to Barry's dumfounded face. "Your wife is insane!"
"I actually think she was pissed," Caitlin reasoned, informing Barry of what happened.
"You made a completely new costume?' Barry said, staring at Cisco like he was nuts. "Why the hell would you do that?"
"I figured she could get a little distance from her cousin," Cisco said. "So they are not always grouped together. I took inspiration from the other –"
"Oh, you're so thinking human," Barry interrupted, shaking his head. "She doesn't want distance from Clark. They're family. As far as she is concerned they belong together. They're a team. And you reduced the size of her family symbol too by the sounds of things. It would be dishonoring the House of El, considering she has been wearing it proudly over her chest just like any Kryptonian warrior would do. And you made her a new cape? Jeez, Cisco… Her cape is Kal-El's baby blanket. It's one of the last things she has from Krypton. The cape, her mothers' necklace, Clark, Astra, Krypto, and the holograms. That's all there is."
"Okay, okay!" Cisco said, holding up his hands in angry surrender. "I give up; I'll never make her a new costume – ever. Look, I made a mistake, but she overreacted."
"She did kind of overreact," Caitlin admitted with a nod. "And lately a couple of people have been coming to us to ask if there is something wrong." Barry raised an eyebrow. "Well, Kara's been kind of… snippy lately. Quicker to anger than normal. I mean did you hear the way she went off on that Master Planner before?" Barry laughed.
"Rufus Puckett," Cisco said making the two look at him. "That didn't deserve a cool name. Figured out his real one."
"Anyway," Caitlin said going back on topic. "There's something going on. You haven't noticed?"
"I have noticed some unusual mood swings through the bond," Barry stated. "I kind of just figured it was… well…" Barry paused as Caitlin looked at him. "That time of the month. She gets moody around then." That time of the month was always weird for Barry and he tried to avoid it as much as possible.
Caitlin sighed, realizing what Barry meant. "Been going on way too long for that," she said. "It's possible it's just stress. I mean she has the labs to run, media to worry about, Supergirl stuff, you just bought Palmer Tech too." After Felicity's death and with Ray still MIA, the company had collapsed and Barry and Kara stepped in to buy it to protect the Arrow Cave and some advanced technology from falling into the wrong hands, like Maxwell Lord. "And whatever this secret project is you have going on." Barry nervously smiled and put a hand behind his head. "And don't deny you are doing something. I saw the money transfers Kara did and you took over that small lab where the Gideon Room use to be, not letting anyone in. You don't have to tell us, but the point is Kara might be overworked. She might need to take a couple of days off."
"I'll talk to her," Barry said as his cellphone binged. "But not now. CSI duty calls." Barry ran into normal clothes and told Krypto to stay before running out.
-Superflash-
Kara was asleep before Barry got home that night. Barry had wanted to do this conversation in person so had asked her to wait for him, but it seemed she had fallen asleep. Barry had decided not to wake her, knowing how tired she'd been lately and merely kicked Krypto out of his spot. The next morning Kara was up before Barry.
"Since when do you make breakfast?" Barry asked, seeing Kara in their kitchen area with ingredients out. "You're usually a big fan of doughnuts in the morning."
"Felt like eggs with onions," Kara said with a shrug cutting an onion. What's wrong? Kara thought to him.
We need to talk about yesterday, Barry thought back taking a seat. "You set the costume on fire."
"That thing was awful," Kara said, and Barry could feel anger building up as she sent him the mental image of the costume.
"I agree that Cisco made a mistake there," Barry said, shaking his head as he saw the costume. It was too different from what they were used to for a start anyway, "But don't you think you overreacted just a bit?" Kara didn't say anything. Caitlin thinks you're stressed. If you need some time off I can take over the labs for a bit?
"Barry, I'm fine," Kara said aloud, not looking where she was cutting before crying out in sudden pain. Holding up her hand in shock, she realized she'd sliced it and blood was pouring out.
"That looks bad…" Barry started to say before realizing who he was saying it to, cutting himself off in shock. Kara wasn't supposed to be able to do that with a normal knife. The two watched as the cut healed in seconds nonetheless.
They both stared at Kara's hand and then at each other. A moment later Kara sped into the bathroom and Barry heard the unmistakable sound of throwing up. Barry ran to the bathroom too and held Kara's hair back until she was done. "What's wrong with me?" Kara asked, shocked after she flushed and she looked up at Barry, but Barry had no answers.
-Superflash-
"You threw up," Caitlin said for about the millionth time, annoying Kara. The two had gone to STAR immediately after the incident and told Caitlin what had happened. Now Kara was sitting on one of the hospital beds they had, the exact same one Barry was in during his coma, and Caitlin had connected her device to Kara to track her solar power. "Oh that's interesting…"
"What?" Kara asked, annoyed again now, and Barry sent calming emotions to her. He was nervous too but he had to be the strong one at the moment.
"Well, every cell in your body takes in solar energy. It's the cause of your powers, as you know," Caitlin said. "But every cell takes in different amounts. For example, your eyes take in more solar energy to power the heat vision and x-ray vision. Your skin cells take on a lot as well. Its what makes you invincible, but it seems your body is redirecting some of your valuable solar energy."
"Redirecting?" Barry asked.
"Best word I could think of," Caitlin said. "Certain areas of your body seem to be getting extra protection and taking away from other areas of your body. Simply put Kara, you're not invincible anymore. Certain areas of you will be near impossible to hurt. Especially around the abdomen." Caitlin waved her hand around Kara's stomach. "But the rest of you." Caitlin pinch Kara's arm and Kara instantly recoiled from the sudden pain. "Very easy to hurt. You'll heal fast as your body directs the solar energy to heal the injury, but you can get injured."
"What could cause this?" Barry asked, nervous.
"Since you threw up, maybe a virus?" Caitlin suggested.
"I'm immune though," Kara stated.
"To human viruses. Maybe this is alien," Caitlin though. "You did face a very large Kryptonian army the other week – who knows what they were carrying. I'll run a blood test though. See what comes up."
Caitlin got the supplies needed to take blood and smirked when Kara winced when she put the needle in. "You enjoyed that way too much," Kara complained.
"Just a little," Caitlin said as she took a couple of vials of blood and then took the needle out. She went to put a bandage on it but the little hole she made healed instantly. "I'd suggest you take it easy until we figure out what's going on."
"I agree," Barry said. Rest, I'll be back soon. Barry kissed Kara's cheek before running off.
Kara looked at her friend and sighed. "There wasn't much to do today. I'll hang out in here and do the work from the computer," Kara said.
"Good idea, so I can keep an eye on you," Caitlin added as Kara went over to the computer Caitlin normally used and logged into her STAR account. All she really needed to do was approve the press releases for certain inventions.
It was about an hour later when both Iris and Joe came running into the lab. "Did we give you codes?" Kara asked and Cisco nodded. "Okay so the security does not need updating."
"Barry said you were sick," Iris said worriedly, and Kara sighed. "I had to drag it out of him."
"And I was with them," Joe added the concern clear on the two faces. They were worried about what could make Kara sick.
"Caitlin is running some tests…" Kara paused as she felt Barry panic. What's wrong? Barry answered by showing her the image of something he was currently fighting – a giant gorilla! "Cisco, why are you not monitoring Barry?" Kara rounded on Cisco, worry in her voice now.
"It was just a stupid robbery he went after," Cisco shrugged.
"My god we're slacking in this place! He's in a fight with a giant gorilla," Kara shouted, causing everyone to pause for a moment before Cisco went to the monitor.
"What the hell? We have giant gorillas now?" Cisco asked, freaking out.
"I got to –" Kara started.
"No!" Caitlin interrupted Kara, running in with some papers in her hand. "You will not go out. You cannot go out." Kara was about to say something, but Caitlin stopped her, sounding even more sincere than Kara had ever heard Caitlin in her life. "I am your doctor and I am forbidding you from going out. Barry has to handle this on his own."
"Oh this is like Dr. Crusher taking Captain Picard off duty," Cisco said, making the two girls stare at him and Caitlin slapped him in her own agitation. "And La Forge gets hurt!"
"Fine," Kara said, retaking her seat and crossing her arms in anger, but she knew her friend well. Caitlin had found something. And it was obviously serious if she wasn't letting Supergirl out.
"Hey if Kara is Picard what am I?" Barry asked, running from the gorilla's fist.
"Riker," Cisco said.
"And I think I'm more Janeway," Kara added suddenly, making everyone turn to her. "Barry made me watch it." That earned a laugh as Kara felt something through the bond. "The Gorilla is trying to get into Barry's mind and control him…" Kara closed her eye and concentrated all her might on Barry, hoping their two minds could keep Barry in control.
"What does that make us?" Iris whispered to her father, having watched the exchange.
"Choosing to believe we're Worf and Troi and not asking questions," Joe whispered back.
-Superflash-
Barry took a hard punch from the gorilla and felt something break. He then felt Kara's mind in his and smiled. Kara's mind was what he needed to battle back against the gorilla's odd telepathic attack. To keep himself in control. "Grodd wants father. Where is father?" The gorilla was saying in a way that was almost like how he and Kara mentally talked, only different. Barry ran around the gorilla, trying to shoot lightning that didn't seem to do much. "You have two minds in you. One far… Cannot control."
Kara you're the best, Barry thought, continuing to run getting faster and faster as he did. He didn't realize how fast he was going, so fast it confused the gorilla. Barry figured he was going fast enough to deliver a super sonic punch even without running the 500 miles usually needed. He ran right at the gorilla and all the animal saw was a flash coming at him.
The punch went right through his thick hide and caused the gorilla to collapse. Barry stopped, breathing heavy and looking down. "I think I broke my hand," Barry said looking over the gorilla and holding his arm with the other hand. Pain ebbing from the broken arm.
"Considering how fast you were going… hell I don't know how fast you were going. The computer stopped tracking you. How did you do that?" Cisco asked.
Barry had no idea how he got to be that speed. He felt Kara in his head and he suddenly felt more powerful. More connected to the thing that gives him his powers… "I don't know but I think Grodd is dead."
"What did you just say?" Cisco said quickly.
"Grodd," Barry said. "Why?"
"He was a gorilla we had here for a time. Wells… Eobard… he told us he gave him to a zoo."
Before Barry could say anything more there was a flame and Firehawk appeared before him. "And I'm too late to help," Jax said, disappointed. He had seen the giant gorilla reported on the television and thought Barry might have needed him, but he had to get out of work first.
"Maybe the two of you can drag the body back to STAR?" Cisco asked hopefully, but they both looked at the body and then each other in doubt.
"Well I think I should be going," Jax said flying away quickly, and Barry looked down to see his symbol had broken – one piece still hanging limply on his chest. So that had been what had broken first. He quickly located the other bits he could find and then sped off. There was no way was he was dragging that thing to the lab, especially with a broken hand and wrist.
-Superflash-
Barry ran back to the labs where Joe was already on the phone with someone. "Okay," Joe said hanging up. "I worked it out with Singh and since Grodd technically belonged to STAR and was never sold, the body belongs to STAR. Kara or Barry have to call to set up transport."
"And the gorilla broke my symbol," Barry said, putting the two biggest pieces down. His hand was still hurting but the odd numbness was indicating it was starting to heal. He needed Caitlin to look at it to make sure it was healing correctly though. If it weren't Caitlin would have to re-break it so it could heal the right way.
"I want to know what's wrong with Kara," Iris said, and eyes went to Caitlin.
"Maybe me, you, and Barry should talk privately," Caitlin said, playing with the papers in her hands. "You know doctor-patient confidentially."
"Oh, just spill it," Kara said with a groan. It was killing her seeing Barry with a broken wrist and symbol she could have easily prevented. If this was some Kryptonian virus, it was hardly going to be secretive.
"You sure?" Caitlin asked in worry, as Barry stood next to his sitting wife and put an arm around her.
"Yeah, tell us how bad it is," Kara moaned.
"That depends," Caitlin sighed "on how you two feel about changing diapers and being called mommy and daddy."
Iris's mouth dropped open as she put a hand over it to stop herself from squealing. Cisco turned on his chair to look at Caitlin in pure dumbfounded disbelief. A huge smile appeared on Joe's face, but Kara and Barry just stared at Caitlin dumbfounded themselves. "You're pregnant Kara." Caitlin finally said, a grin forming on her lips. "It makes sense. The mood swings lately. The throwing up… All pregnancy signs and your powers giving extra protection to the baby, which is why it's redirecting your solar energy. Could be even feeding it to the fetus…. And I am guessing from the looks I am getting you two were not trying."
"Um… no," Kara said in a small voice, still stunned. "I mean we talked about it but we didn't plan… I mean…"
"We're having a baby," Barry said with a smile. "We're going to be parents!" Kara smiled and hugged Barry. "Ow… sorry my hand." Iris finally let out her squeal as she went in to hug the two.
"I'm going to be an aunt!" Iris cried, a smile on her face.
"I so call uncle," Cisco said waving, his hand with a smile too.
"My grandkids call me pop-pop," Joe pointed out, his grin almost splitting his face in two. "Remember that."
"Okay," Kara said. "Can we keep this to ourselves for a while though? Don't tell anyone until we figure out how to tell them." The group quickly nodded their agreement.
"You're going to have to make a doctor's appointment soon though. Figure out how far along you are," Caitlin said.
"You realize you're my doctor right?" Kara said.
"But I'm not… and you can't… because you're an alien," Caitlin sighed seeing where this was going.
"It's either you or the DEO, and I am not having my kid born in the DEO," Kara said and Barry nodded his agreement. There were still some scientists in the DEO who gave the two odd looks like they wanted to experiment. It was better to keep their kid away from that. "It's up to you Aunty Caity."
Caitlin looked nervous, but smirked nonetheless as Kara called her aunt. "Okay," Caitlin said. "I guess I am doing some research on how to deliver a baby. We're also going to need to buy the right equipment and stuff. An ultrasound machine…"
"Buy whatever you need," Kara said shaking her head not wanting to hear what Caitlin needed at the moment. "Charge it to the lab."
"And I want you to limit the use of your powers," Caitlin added, suddenly serious. "We do not know how they will be affected as you go along."
"Urm, sure?" Kara reluctantly agreed.
"Hey," Barry said. "Can you look at my hand?" Caitlin smiled and nodded, leading Barry to the back.
-Supeflash-
Barry had to drive a company car back to the apartment. No one wanted Kara flying and Kara didn't remember how to drive. The two walked into their apartment. "Why do I feel like I am becoming Barry-White now?" Barry asked. As they were leaving the labs Cisco was making mention of making a new symbol for Barry – the likely option being a White one like the Earth-jumpers they had faced.
Kara laughed as she sat down and Krypto came up. Barry was nervous for a second, but Krypto didn't go to play rough with Kara. "I think he knows," Kara said gently, petting her dog. He's been really gentle with me for a while now. Dogs know things sometimes when we don't.
Good boy, Barry thought, sitting on the couch next to Kara. "Kara, don't worry about the city." Barry knew that was on Kara's mind. "I'll be protecting it and I'll take Krypto with me. We have Jax willing and able to protect the city now and Sara over in National. You just worry about our baby." Kara was about to say something but Barry instantly stopped her. No 'buts', that's your job now – to rest. Barry thought and Kara smiled. "And I want you to not stress yourself. Give me some of the responsibility for the labs."
"Not the media," Kara automatically said, and Barry laughed.
"Fine, but I'll take some of the handling employees and stuff," Barry said and Kara sighed in relief. "Also your job in the project is over. We just needed you to transfer money and buy the land we needed. I will continue working in my lab on my part, John doing his architect stuff, and we'll put Diana or Sara in charge of handling the construction workers."
"Okay," Kara said. "Can I plan on how to change the spare bedroom into a nursery?"
Barry smiled. "Now that is something an expecting mother should plan," Barry said and kissed her. "By the way what are we calling it?"
"Too soon for names," Kara said, confused. Barry looked at her confused and then realized his mistake.
No, I meant the project the Justice League is working on. Did we name it?
Oh… yeah we did. We've been calling it Watchtower.
Nice, Cisco would be proud.
-Superflash-
The next day when they walked in the labs Cisco was excited. "Come here," Cisco said before Barry or Kara could even greet anyone else, and then dragged out the mannequin with Barry's outfit on it. There was a new symbol on it, but instead of the red background they were used to or the white they had expected and seen on their world jumpers it had a dark blue background.
"Blue?" Barry asked. "I like it, but I was not expecting this?"
"Why did you choose blue?" Kara asked.
"It's the same blue you wear," Cisco said. "I was thinking about how Barry said you like looking like Clark because your family. You're a team and well, Barry is a part of that team. Now you share all the same colors. Barry has a red suit, you have a red cape, symbol, and skirt, Barry has a blue background on his symbol and you have the blue outfit, and Barry has a yellow lightning bolt and you have yellow around your symbol and on your belt. You match now." Kara hugged Cisco before the geek could even move. "Too tight!" he wheezed.
"Sorry," Kara said backing away, tears in her eyes. "It's perfect though." Kara wiped the tears away. "More than makes up for the horrible costume the other day."
Cisco opened his mouth but stopped, deciding it was better not to argue with a pregnant Kryptonian. Barry smiled and playfully punched Cisco on the arm. "Nice job, man," Barry said.
"Well I officially dub you Barry-Blue," Cisco said playfully with a smile. "And when junior in there gets old enough to become a superhero I know the color scheme to use." Cisco pointed to Kara's stomach as Barry smiled and kissed Kara, who smiled to and put a hand on her stomach. Almost not believing she and Barry were starting a family.
Post Chapter Note 1: Karry kid… you had to know this was coming eventually. Unlike some stories I wanted to play it slow, get there in reasonable and sensible time. Hope you liked.
Post Chapter Note 2: Last chapter there seemed to be one or two people who saw a Karry baby coming and were not thrilled with the idea. I will say it was always my intention on making them parents. I had the idea long before it was in 'Call Me Kara'. Hell I had the idea before Super Surprise was published (that's to tell you how long I was planning this). I just didn't rush into it. I wanted it to feel more natural. Wanted them married for a while first too and to get other plots out of the way. That being said unlike the other stories this story will not become all about the baby. I am going to keep a balance so there will be fluff family chapters and then superhero chapters where baby is with grandma or grandpa or aunts and uncle while Barry and Kara are saving the day. I hope you guys all like what I have planned.
Post Chapter Note 3: Also Master Planner, as stated above, was made by me and my friend and might become a recurring gag in this story. Yes, a gag. He's based on Dr. Doofenshmirtz from Phines and Ferb and also some Kim Possible villains. Hope you like the humor.
Post Chapter Note 4: What Barry did for Grodd was my version of an Infinite Mass Punch and is not something he's going to always be able to do. Only in certain situations with the right circumstances will he be able to do it.
Please REVIEW
Next Time on Karry Universe:
A Very Karry Christmas: It's Christmas already and Kara and Barry are ready to tell Kara's family the good news, but will other news get in the way of the baby?
Karry Master OUT!
