One night, everything seemed peaceful until a group of six robbers decided to pick a lock and rob some store. They struggled to get rid of the lock, but eventually succeeded and entered the store, trying to take as much cash as they could.
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind them, who began hitting and kicking them, causing multiple wounds. One man's arm was severely burnt off. The men turned around and saw a familiar costume that Supergirl wore, only this time.
"Supergirl!" One robber said.
But the woman continued fighting the six robbers for a long time, although she didn't use any fatal attacks.
Maggie Sawyer was drinking coffee in her police car, when she heard a police report that there was a robbery in a nearby city block. She promptly put the coffee away, and drove to the crime scene, only to catch a glimpse of what was going one.
"Police," said Maggie. She noticed that a group of robbers saw her and for some reason cried out of happiness and then promptly surrendered. Maggie looked around and saw Supergirl, flying away from the beaten robbers.
After Maggie arrested them, and talked to the store owner, who woke up because of the loud beating the robbers received, Maggie examined the wounds the robbers received.
"Kryptonian heat vision. It might have been an Infernian, but I've just seen Supergirl," said Maggie. She saw multiple serious injuries that the men received, although none of them apparently were life threatening.
"Strange. It's hard to believe that Kara would turn rogue, but I just seen her fly out of here," thought Maggie. "Unfortunately I cannot take Kara in for questioning, since it's Supergirl who I am after, and I would just need to meet Supergirl in person to take her in."
Maggie felt bad, having rejected Alex the night before, and now needing to take her sister for badly hurting those robbers.
Next morning, while Kara was getting lunch for Cat, Maggie entered the floor where Cat Grant worked.
"Hello Officer Magdalena," said Cat
"It's Maggie, or Margarita Sawyer," said Maggie.
"Oh, sorry Mary, I was confused. Come on in, how may I help you, Mary?" Cat asked.
Maggie sighed. She heard that Cat Grant liked to name people wrong names, but she hadn't expected Cat to actually call Maggie by the wrong name.
"Miss Grant, I have a story for you. Yesterday, while on patrol I saw Supergirl beating up six robbers, and while those six men will go to prison, no one deserves to get beaten up, especially so severely. One man lost an arm due to Supergirl's heat vision," said Maggie.
"How interesting. And why would Supergirl commit such an act. No, something does not sound right," said Cat.
"Supergirl, it was her, she did that," said Maggie, showing a short video recording she managed to make of Supergirl, as she was flying away from the store and beaten robbers.
"Are you sure this vide was not altered?" Cat asked.
"I recorded this video," said Maggie.
"Fine, I trust that you are telling what you have seen with your eyes, Detective Sawyer, but that does not mean what you thought was the same as what actually happened," said Cat.
"Miss Grant, my eyes are perfectly fine. Wait, are you trying to mislead me into not pursuing this case?" Maggie asked. "I don't want to take you in as well, but I would if I have to."
"Oh please, why would I lie to the police? I might be ruthless and rude, but I am the Queen of the Media, and I tell the truth when I report the news, unlike numerous fake news outlets out there. The reason why I am asking you those questions, however, Detective Mary, is because I believe in the truth, and before publishing the story, I want to find that truth. I need more evidence to think one way or another," said Cat.
"I have a video," said Maggie.
"We live in a city full of aliens, Detective Sawyer. What if some are shape shifters, and one of those tried to frame Supergirl?" Cat asked.
"That would be a possibility if there were aliens who actually used heat vision while being shape shifters," said Maggie.
"Are they such aliens?" Cat asked.
"Not that I heard of, but maybe," said Maggie.
"See, it could have been another alien. Get more proof, Detective Sawyer, and I promise you that I will publish your story," said Cat, walking to her office.
As Maggie walked back to the elevator, she saw James Olsen standing by the window, looking outside. "Mister Olsen," said Maggie.
"Hello Detective Sawyer," James asked.
"Mister Olsen, I have proof that Supergirl assaulted and badly hurt six robbers. I know that you are Superman's friend, and you must have information about Supergirl," said Maggie.
"Look Sawyer, I know that both of us know that Kara is Supergirl, and yesterday she spent the whole night hugging Alex, since Alex heartbroken. We even canceled a game night. Now, I don't know about what happened last night for you to believe that Kara hurt those robbers, but I am glad to find out the truth. So, how can I help?" James asked.
"You can record things and get me evidence," said Maggie.
"I can do that. Can I come with you in case it was really Kara who did this and hurt those people, because I am sure I can talk to her?" James asked.
"No, stay out of this Olsen. While I appreciate your help in finding out the truth, you are just a civilian, albeit a talented one, and I don't want to have civilians to get hurt," said Maggie, walking towards the elevator, and exiting the building.
Later that day, after Kara returned from lunch and did some more work for Cat Grant, Kara saw a burning building. She quickly excused herself, and after changing into her costume, flew to the burning building and by using her breath, put out the fire.
"Supergirl!" People cheered around the building as Kara flew inside and carried people, placing them on the street, in case there was any structural damage to the building.
"You are the best," said one kid.
Kara smiled, waving towards the people around her.
Kara saw that a police car parked nearby, and Maggie exited the car. "Supergirl, stand down. You are under arrest for hurting 6 people," said Maggie.
Kara look at Maggie with confusion, and rose in the air, quickly texting to Alex, since she wanted her sister to talk to Maggie. While Kara did not fly away, she hovered in the air, high enough so that people could not touch her.
Maggie sighed. "I need to speak with Danvers about this," thought Maggie.
Five minutes later, Maggie saw a black motorcycle arrive next to her car. The woman driving it parked the motorcycle, and took of her helmet, revealing Alex Danvers, who wore a black leather jacket and glasses.
"I was about to text you, Danvers," said Maggie, approaching her friend from the DEO.
"I need to talk to you to lay of Kara," said Alex.
"She hurt those people," said Maggie.
"No way, you got the wrong person. Kara was comforting me for hours, until she finally decided to go to work today in the morning," said Alex.
"Okay, I am listening," said Maggie. She looked above, and saw Kara waving at Maggie, smiling. Kara even began flying in a circle with joy, yet she still flew high enough for Maggie not to be able to reach Kara.
"Little Danvers is a little shit," said Maggie quietly.
"Excuse me?" Alex took one step towards Maggie, who just smiled, showing her dimples to Alex.
"I, I haven't planned for you to hear that," said Maggie. "So, can you explain what happened, because I saw Kara yesterday."
"That's classified," said Alex.
"Alex, I thought we are friends," said Maggie.
"Friends? No, we are not friends. We hang out, got close, and you told me that I liked you, and that my feelings were real, and that I deserve to be happy. I thought that me being happy would be with you. But, you humiliated me, rejecting me since apparently I am just a woman made of sunshine and rainbows, me, poor inexperienced Alex Danvers. And now, I am not happy, no, all I do is feel pain, pain that is when I think about you, although Kara made my life so much better. But none of this matters now, what's important is that you back off from accusing my sister of hurting those people," said Alex.
"Danvers," said Maggie.
"No Maggie, I don't want to talk to you anymore," said Alex as she noticed that Kara suddenly stopped flying like a silly puppy, and just froze while still hovering in the air. Alex looked at what Kara was staring and saw a duplicate of Kara, also hovering in the air.
"I need to go," said Alex, quickly disappearing, and soon arriving on the scene in her white Powergirl costume, not wearing her fake glasses anymore.
Maggie looked around and saw people pointing their fingers at the scene.
"Detective Sawyer," said James, arriving on the scene on his own motorcycle, and parking it next to where Alex parked hers. "I had a feeling you would investigate this place, since Kara would have tried to save lives from that burning building."
"There are two Supergirls," said Maggie as James immediately pointed his camera in the sky, fully capturing three hovering figures in the air, two of them being Kara and Alex, and the third looking exactly like Kara, staring at the Danvers sisters.
"Who are you," said Kara. She knew she could talk to this stranger without any of the three women being overheard, while people could see them, no one but Kara, Alex, and this stranger would know what they actually said.
"Hello Little One," said the woman, pressing a button on her glove, revealing Astra's face.
"A hologram?" Maggie asked. "I guess I was part right, the attacker was a Kryptonian, just not Kara."
"What do you want, Aunt Astra?" Kara asked.
"Nothing, I just want for us to be a family again, all of us," Astra said, now looking at Alex.
"You hurt those people! You framed me!" Kara cried.
"Well, those robbers were in their way really, a means to an end. It's not like I would want to reign over those who sinned, and bring ruthless justice to those who escaped justice, like one prisoner at Fort Rozz still believes, but I did that for people to lose faith in you, Little One, so that you would have nowhere else to go but to me," said Astra. "And as you can see, I did not bring my bodyguards with me. I don't have Kryptonite shields. Now it's just me and you two."
Kara flew at Astra and began fighting her, with Alex joining in. The two women hit Astra from various directions, and while Astra managed to hit both Danvers sisters, they hit her more often.
As the Kryptonians fought, they occasionally hit the buildings, causing large boulders to form and fall of the buildings. "Run," said James Olsen, running to the crowd of people, trying to get people to safety. Maggie joined him.
While James and Maggie managed to lead most people to safety, one group of people, a family of four just froze in place as a large piece of rock descended on the ground, targeting the family.
Kara noticed this and disengaged from the fight. She accelerated, flew towards the rock and caught it.
Kara span, and threw the rock in the river, before quickly returning to the fight.
Kara and Alex continued to fight Astra, while occasionally destroying or catching rocks before they could hurt people. But not many people were left standing under the buildings, they all wisely followed Maggie's lead towards the park, where they were at low risk of getting smashed by the falling debris.
James kept making photos and a few videos with his camera.
"Give up, Aunt Astra," said Kara. Both Kara and Alex landed hits on Astra. She just laughed.
"You both have such temper, my dear nieces," said Astra as Alex hit Astra.
Astra flew at Kara, who then hit Astra, sending her to the ground. Astra fell on the ground, creating a small crater. Kara and Alex quickly landed and punched Astra together, finally defeating Astra.
Alex lifted Astra's body, and the sisters were ready to leave. "Supergirl, Supergirl, I am sorry that I wrongly accused you of beating those people up. I just had solid evidence to believe it was you," said Maggie.
Kara just glared at Maggie. "While I appreciate your apology as a Detective, I don't want to see you ever again, Detective of hurtful words," said Kara.
Alex rose in the air, while holding Astra, flew towards the DEO HQ, with Kara following her sister, while leaving Maggie standing alone on the street.
Kara and Alex arrived at the DEO. They brought Astra to a special cell, from which Astra could not break free. They then interrogated Astra, who kept telling to Kara that she was right, and Alura was the one who made the mistake of sending Astra to the Phantom Zone and not listening to Astra's plan to save Krypton.
The Danvers sisters then left Astra. Kara wanted to speak with the hologram of her mother to see what Alura's memories could tell about what actually happened.
"Hello Kara," said Alura's hologram.
"Did you use me to get Astra arrested?" Kara asked.
"Kara," said Alura's hologram.
"I need to know. Did you do it?" Kara asked.
"Yes," said Alura's hologram, with the face devoid of any emotion.
Kara took a step back. "How? Why?"
"Astra broke many laws of Krypton, and she had to be punished. Astra was great at hiding, so I had only one option to lure her in. I used you to find Astra, and then send her to the Phantom Zone," said Alura's hologram.
"You lied to me," said Kara.
"I am sorry, I don't get that," said Alura's hologram.
"You lied to me," said Kara, with tears escaping her eyes.
"I am sorry, I don't get that," said Alura's hologram.
Kara's wet eyes looked at the hologram. The water in her eyes instantly evaporated, as Kara produced to beams of hear vision which she sent at the hologram. The rays of energy passed through the hologram, not damaging it.
Seeing that Kara was getting very upset, Alex quickly turned off the hologram and approached her sister. "Kara," said Alex.
Kara was shaking, repeating the same phrase a few times. "She lied to me," said Kara, with tears rolling down her cheeks.
Kara dropped on the floor, and continued crying. Alex sat, and hugged her sister, while heating "she lied to me" a few more times.
"I got you, I got you Kara," said Alex, hugging Kara tightly. The Danvers sisters sat quietly for half an hour.
Once Kara stopped crying, Alex looked in her sister's eyes. "It will get better. You feel hurt, but it will get better. I might not know how it feels to have a parent who betrayed their daughter, but I know the feel of the loss you must be feeling right now. Alura lied to you, while Astra became your enemy," said Kara.
"Thank you Alex, for everything," said Kara. Alex just smiled.
Kara returned to her work. While there, she quickly did the tasks Cat Grant assigned her using her super speed. Once done, she noticed that James was doing some pushups nearby.
Kara returned to her work table and continued working.
Late in the evening, while Kara was typing on the computer, she heard Alex on the radio. "Kara, I analyzed the fight and realized that our battle with Astra was a mere distraction. Lord's company is under attack," said Alex.
Kara checked if no one was looking and after changing in her costume, flew quickly to Max's office building. When she arrived she saw that Alex was already fighting some Kryptonians with Non leading the mission.
"And here comes Kara Zor El, the little girl who could not save her family," said Non. The sisters stood back to back, ready to fight the ten Kryptonians, only to have both the DEO and some police officers to arrive on the scene and point their guns at the Kryptonians.
Both the DEO agents and police officers shot bullets, but neither regular bullets nor Kryptonian ones had any effect on Non's group of Kryptonians.
Suddenly, the doors opened and Max Lord entered, pointing his gun at a random Kryptonian, and shooting him in the face, which caused to melt the face of that Kryptonian.
"What do you know, it works," said Max, looking happily at his newly made gun.
Non flew towards Max, but Kara hit Non in the chest, sending Non away.
Kara heard another gunshot and saw Lillian Luthor hitting another Kryptonian, now in the chest. "This gun would be a great defense against these Kryptonians," said Lillian.
"That's because we both designed it to be this effective," smiled Maxwell.
Kara and Alex resumed the fight, helping the DEO agents and police officers fight the Kryptonians.
"Aim at the shields, they will be resistant to Kryptonite then," said Alex. The agents and officers nodded.
Police officers began shooting at the shields, and after numerous impacts, the shields broke into several pieces. The DEO agents saw an opportunity and quickly defeated two more Kryptonians.
Max and Lillian both pointed their guns at another Kryptonian and shot him, now hitting that Kryptonian in the legs. "I could get used to this," said Lillian, pointing at another Kryptonians.
As Lillian was about to shoot another Kryptonian, she heard a familiar voice. "Mother?"
Lillian turned around and saw Lena in the buildings, that was in full chaos.
Doors were broken. There were large holes in the walls. The glass in the ceiling was shattered. A few craters were on the floor.
"Mother, what have you done?" Lena asked.
"Something to save your life," said Lillian, hitting another Kryptonian, only this time she only managed to hit the Kryptonian's arm since Lena distracted her.
That Kryptonian, with now damaged arm, looked at Lena and smirked. "You tried to hurt me, now I will hurt your daughter," said the Kryptonian, sending heat vision at Lena.
"Lena!" Kara cried, but while she tried to fly to help her friend, she couldn't since Non grabbed her leg and threw Kara on the ground. Alex couldn't help either since she was fighting another Kryptonian, and was further away from Lena than Kara was.
Lena just froze in place, seeing the hot rays of energy flying directly at her.
"Get down," cried Maggie as she jumped towards Lena, pushing the CEO on the ground, while quickly falling too.
Maggie cried out of pain, with her shoulder hurting.
"Maggie!" Alex cried. She overpowered her opponent, and flew towards Maggie. But the Kryptonian who managed to wound Maggie flew towards Maggie and held Maggie by the collar of her neck.
"Surrender, or this pathetic human dies," said the Kryptonian, looking at Maggie, ready to use heat vision again.
Alex stopped caring about her surroundings, and flew towards the man and hitting him in the face so hard that the Kryptonian flew towards the opposite side of the room, making a hole in the wall, and landing in a small crater on the street.
Max approached Alex and looked at her with slight annoyance. "What? You can pay for these walls, and I needed to save my friend," said Alex, lifting Maggie and quickly examining whether Maggie suffered any serious wounds. Max looked at both Alex and Maggie and walked away.
"As you can see, Kryptonians are a threat. That Kryptonian in particular hurt this woman," said Lillian, approaching Alex.
"You are wrong," said Alex.
"Maybe, maybe not. I believe I will see you again, Powergirl," said Lillian, walking away.
Alex knew that she should have helped Kara, but instead stayed with Maggie, since while the woman broke her heart with the recent rejection, Alex didn't want to see Maggie hurt.
"Sawyer, where do you feel pain?" Alex asked, further examining the wound. Maggie groaned.
"Ouch, this hurts," said Maggie.
"Sorry," said Alex.
"I didn't know you cared," said Maggie.
"I might not want to be near you, but it does not mean I want you to get hurt," said Alex.
Maggie opened her eyes and smiled, showing her dimples. "You are such a good friend," said Maggie, falling on the ground and closing her eyes.
"Maggie, Maggie!" Alex screamed and checked Maggie's pulse. "Alive, good,"
"I am not dead, Danvers, I am just hurt and I want to sleep," said Maggie.
"You are not going to sleep while you are hurt, I need you to stay awake," said Alex.
"Alex! Believe me, I am fine, now, go help your sister," said Maggie. Alex nodded and flew to help Kara, while Maggie tried to sit up, only groaning from pain in her shoulder, and choosing to lay on the floor again.
When Alex returned, she saw more destruction that the battle between Kara and Non caused. The two were still fighting.
"And so your pathetic pet human returned, little girl," said Non, releasing Kara's arm and flying away a few meters away.
"Surrender," said Kara.
"No, but how about I do this?" Non asked and flew towards Hank. Non grabbed Hank, looked at where Lena was standing and quickly used heat vision to shoot energy at the wall behind Lena. He then looked at the wall next to Maggie and used his heat vision again.
Kara and Alex saw that rocks began falling on both Lena and Maggie. They split up, and Kara went to save Lena, while Alex went to save Maggie, which allowed Non and other Kryptonians to escape.
A/N: a lot of things going on in this chapter, hence such a long chapter. Here Maggie thought that Kara not James hurt people, so she went after Kara, since I thought logically James is not the Guardian yet, so it would not make sense for Maggie to think that James did bad things. But James will become Guardian, just a bit later. If anyone is wondering, Lillian asked Lena to come to Max's office for the three of them to talk, and neither Lena, Max, nor Lillian expected an attack. I thought Reign reference was funny. Btw, should Samantha eventually appear (in a possible sequel)?
Guess what will happen next chapter? Hint Kiss Hint
