"What's this?" Kara asked when she entered the apartment and saw the table laid and candles burning a few days later.
"I know how much stress you have been under so I thought I'd cook a nice romantic dinner. Chewie has already been fed and walked so tonight is all about you."
"You didn't have to do this." Kara said.
"I wanted to." Steve smiled as Kara's phone rang.
"Sorry." Kara said answering the call. "Okay, I'll be right there." She then hung up and looked at Steve and said.
"I'll be back in ten minutes. Maybe twenty."
"I'll be waiting." Steve said watching her fly off.
"Well Chewie, once again it looks like we are in for a guys night in." Steve said. "But we still have cooking to do. If you are good maybe you'll get a sample." He added going back to the hob. "Although maybe I should have just ordered pizza. Pretty sure Kara would prefer that." He commented as Chewie barked. "Apparently you would to." Steve said as Chewie growled. "What's?-" He asked turning just as he saw a familiar face right by him. Before he could do anything he felt a sharp burning pain in his stomach. Looking down he saw the knife sticking out of his midriff. Looking up again he saw his former patient and groaned.
"Ca-" But instead of a verbal response Cam just disappeared.
Sliding to the floor, Chewie barking at his side Steve managed to activate his watch, before praying he hadn't just been used as bait.
"Steve!" Kara said moments later. Dropping down to his side she gripped the knife in his stomach.
"Don't." Steve said. "Leave it to … doctors."
Nodding she released the handle and then scooped Steve up in her arms and flew him to the DEO.

"Why do we let you choose the movies?" Martin asked MJ as the group walked through the Boston streets.
"I can't help it if you don't have taste." MJ shrugged.
"No way are you claiming that was good." Martin stated.
"True, it was bad." MJ said. "Sorry."
"You finally admitting bad taste?" Matt asked approaching the group.
"What are you doing here?" Alex asked. "I thought you had a major deadline."
"I do. But we ran out of coffee." He said waving a bag. "I thought I'd check in on you on my way back. So you didn't like the movie?"
"No. And I can't believe I gave up writing an ODE solver for that." Alex complained.
"Not sure that even I can defend that comment." Matt teased as a man jumped out of an alley and charged at the group with a knife. Instantly Alex put up a forcefield, which the man bounced off moments before two DEO agents swooped in and detained him. When one of them saw the knife handle he looked at the group and ordered.
"Get back to the house now. Armstrong, make sure they get there."

Jogging through the park the older Alex tried to figure out what threats she had missed and what Lex's objectives were. The more she thought, the faster she ran, until her legs and lungs screamed for oxygen.
Seeing a bench she came to a stop and leaned over the back of it, trying to get her breath back, as well as stretch out her hamstrings. As she breathed heavily she heard a young girl cry for help. Turning she saw what looked like a teenager sobbing a few feet away. Looking around for a possible attacker buy seeing none Alex rushed to the girl.
"Are you okay?" Alex asked moments before the girl looked up and thrust a knife in Alex's stomach before running off.

As the younger Kara and Diz walked hand in hand along the street Kara looked at Diz and asked.
"Sure you can't stay tonight?"
"I could, but I would have to leave at four tomorrow morning to make training."
"You saying I am not worth an early start?"
"I did not say that." Diz pointed out.
"Strongly implied."
"You have a mean streak." Diz pointed out.
"You are going to be working for my mom next year, you need to get use to it."
"It'll be fine." Diz shrugged.
"How can you be so sure?"
"You'll be in National City with me." Diz reminded her just as something caught his eye. Seeing a glint he started to warn Kara, when a man in front of them thrust a blade at Kara.
Using his forearm he pushed the attacker's arm to one side giving Kara enough time to react and she immediately punched the attacker who stumbled backwards, but kept hold of the knife, slashing wildly and slicing Diz's forearm.
Regaining his balance the attacker launched himself at Kara again. This time Diz kicked the attacker's midriff and Kara knocked the knife holding arm to one side and punched the attacker's face again sending the attacker to the ground as the DEO escort ran towards them.
"You two okay?" One of the Agent's asked as the other secured the attacker.
"I guess." Kara said before seeing the handle of the blade. "Is that aunt Kara's crest?"
"You guys need to get to safety." One of the DEO agents said. "Get in the car."

As the doctor removed the knife from Steve's stomach and put it down on the tray Kara saw the handle and her family crest that was etched into it.
"No." She said picking it up and clearly seeing her family crest in the handle.
"You need to go." The doctor said to Supergirl who dropped the knife in they tray before backing out of the room and flying off.
"Where's Supergirl?" Ruby asked entering the infirmary a moment later.
"She saw the knife and flew off." One of the agents said before passing Ruby an evidence bag containing the knife. Seeing the crest Ruby commented. "That is not good." But before she could dwell on it Rose came on the radio.
"Ruby, we need you up here, there have been multiple stabbings, including the Director."
"Get J'onn down here." Ruby said.
