Alura Danvers

Lena and Kara arrive outside the DEO, having been driven there in one of Lena's private cars. The two get out of the car and approach the front of the building.

"This is the D.E.O.... the Department....." Kara begins.

"Of Extranormal Operations." Lena cuts Kara off.

Kara gives Lena a confused look, knowing the DEO is supposed to be a secret government organisation.

"I'm well aware of the DEOs existence Ka.... Supergirl." Lena says.

Kara grimaces at Lena now calling her Supergirl.

"You can just call me Kara." Kara says.

"Oh, okay. I didn't know which one you'd prefer, especially in here." Lena says.

"Kara's fine, it's my real name after all." Kara smiles a bit.

The two women enter the building.

"What the hell is she doing here!!!" Kara hears Alex yell as she approaches then at the entrance, pointing to Lena.

"I asked her to come." Kara says.

"Kara this is a secret government organisation!!" Alex says angrily.

"And Alura's my daughter!!!" Kara snaps back.

Alex's expression softens.

"Look, I already knew that the DEO existed, and you can have me sign as many NDAs as you like. But for now, I'm here to help save a little girl. Are you going to let me help or not?" Lena says, directing her question at Alex.

Alex turns to Lena.

"I don't trust you. Clearly Kara has already revealed to you far too much, to a Luthor none the less. I don't want you here." Alex glares.

"Well I do!!! I'm bringing Lena in to help, I'm not asking for your permission Alex. You can try and stop me, but just remember this is my daughter's life at stake here. Don't make me hurt you." Kara says, her tone turning very serious.

"Fine. But I'm going to keep a close eye on her the whole time." Alex concedes.

"Whatever, now lets go!" Kara says annoyed.

Alex walks in front of them, gesturing to the guards to let Kara and Lena follow her in. Kara looks at Lena and gives Lena a brief smile before her face returns to a more neutral or worried look, Kara responds by giving Lena a brief smile too.

"I'm sorry.... she means well....." Kara says to Lena as they walk along.

"It's okay I understand the position she is in. If I was in her position letting a Luthor into a top secret government building would raise a ton of red flags for me. I'm honestly surprised she'd let me in at all, you clearly have some sway over her." Lena comments.

"Uhh.... well she is my sister after all." Kara says.

Lena looks at Kara with a surprised look on her face. Kara notices it and realises Lena thinks that Alex is a Kryptonian like her.

"Adoptive sister." Kara adds.

"Oh." Lena replies as she cools her expression.

A few minutes later Kara has lead Lena to a medical bay inside the DEO.

"What's going on here?" J'onn asks, blocking Kara and Lena with his body from entering.

"I brought Lena to help save my daughter." Kara says, annoyed once more.

"Kara, this is a secret...." J'onn begins.

"I don't care!!! I swear J'onn if you try and stop Lena from helping I will throw you into the sun." Kara snaps.

J'onn's expression softens.

"Very well. She's your daughter, you know best." J'onn says and steps aside. Kara is a bit surprised by how quickly J'onn folded to her. She was sure that he would put up even more of a fight than Alex.

The room Lena and Kara step into looks like a medical bay, but with one bed. There is various equipment and machines inside, used to run various medical tests in the room. On the single bed and attached to what looks to be an IV along with various wires checking vitals is a young girl who looks only 4 years old, Alura. Alura has dark brown hair, unlike her mother's, but in her face you can see a resemblance to Kara, most notably her blue eyes. In the room Winn is the only other person inside. He is currently sitting next to Alura's bed taking to her gently with a smile on his face. Alura is just listening. It is hard for Alura to even talk nowadays due to all the throwing up she has been doing.

"Kara you're back... and you brought ....." Winn says as he stands up noticing Lena.

"Not now Winn. How is she?" Kara asks.

Winn turns to look back at Kara.

"She's been quiet. She's been drifting in and out of sleep." Winn explains.

"Okay, where's Eliza?" Kara asks.

"She got a call just after you left. A colleague of hers might have some research that could help. She says it's a long shot. But she's left to go meet up with the colleague. She told me to tell you she'll be back tomorrow afternoon sometime." Winn says.

"Okay." Kara nods.

Kara approaches her daughter and Winn moves out the way. Kara doesn't sit on the chair Winn was occupying, she just crouches down so she is eye level with Alura. She gives Alura a kiss on her forehead that causes Alura to open up her eyes.

"Mommy." Alura says softly with a horse throat and a small smile.

"Hey. There is someone I want you to meet." Kara says and then turns to look at Lena and gestures for her to come closer.

Lena hesitantly comes closer and ends up right beside Kara.

"This is Miss Luthor.... she's.... a friend.... she's very smart..... she's going to help us make you better okay?" Kara explains.

Lena just smiles sadly at the girl as Alura looks over at Lena. Alura then looks back at her mother and whispers something that only Kara can hear. Kara laughs. Lena gets a confused look on her face.

"She said you're very pretty." Kara explains to Lena.

Lena blushes, she is touched by this girl. This girl is in clearly some pain and discomfort and she still took time to comment that she's pretty. Lena is pretty sure that most people in Alura's position would not be so kind, and frankly that would be justified, given the position they'd be in. But Alura, this sick young girl, who Lena gets the impression without even asking is probably weeks or maybe days away from death, she takes her time to say one of the most sweetest compliments Lena has ever heard. Lena can tell in this very moment that there is something truly special about Alura, and it's not just because she's an alien.

Lena crouches down next to Kara.

"Thank you Alura, you're a very pretty young girl too. I promise I'm going to do everything in my power to make you better okay?" Lena says softly.

Lena knows she shouldn't be making such promises, but she can't help it, even with that small comment the girl has already made Lena want to fight for her, no matter what. Alura's only responses is a brief smile.

Alex enters the room.

"Kara? Can I talk to you for a moment? Alone?" Alex asks sternly.

Kara can guess what this is about but she knows she's going to have to get this out of the way otherwise Alex is just going to be a hindrance.

"Okay. Winn can you please shows Lena all the data we have on Alura's..... condition currently." Kara says pointing to the computer in the corner of the room.

Winn nods.

"Alura, honey, I'm going to be back in a few minutes. Winn is going to be here with you, along with Miss Luthor." Kara explains.

Alura nods.

Kara heads out of the room and follows Alex into another private room. Once the two are inside Alex turns to Kara with clear anger on her face.

"How can you be this stupid Kara?!" Alex yells, "You know who her brother is right?!"

"Of course I do." Kara replies annoyed.

"Really? Because I thought if you did you'd realise that she could just be like him! She could want to kill Kryptonians and other aliens just like her brother! And you, you've just given her access to your half alien daughter and told her your secret!! You've given her all she needs to not only kill Alura but you too!" Alex yells.

"She won't do that!" Kara replies.

"How do you know?!" Alex asks angrily.

"Because I don't judge people by the choices their family make. Do you judge me by my mother and fathers choices which lead to the destruction of Krypton? Or Winn by his fathers choices? Then how do YOU know that Lena will do those things. You are judging her and being entirely unfair!" Kara snaps back.

"I'm not being unfair!!! I'm looking out for not only the safety of my niece but you as well, as clearly this whole situation has made you lose your mind!" Alex yells.

"This situation!! You mean the situation where my daughter is dying!?!" Kara yells.

Alex goes to respond but Kara cuts her off.

"The situation where you, Eliza, Winn and just about everyone else here at the DEO have been trying to figure out what is wrong with Alura but you can't! Well guess what!?! You guys had your chance to save my daughter!! Now it's Lena's turn!! I don't care if I have your or the DEO's approval. If I have to I'll take Alura and Lena somewhere else!! I understand this is a risk, and it could go wrong, but I trust Lena. When I told her about my daughter and asked for her help she didn't even hesitate. She just turned around grabbed her bag and said 'let's go', no questions asked. I'm willing to do anything to save Alura, Alex. And I resent the fact that you are belittling my judgement. In fact the only one with a compromised judgement is you! You failed me and Alura!! So I'm turning to someone else!! If that effects your ego so much you can just leave and stop helping!" Kara yells at Alex and storms out of the room.

Alex goes to respond to Kara but before she can Kara has stormed out of the room using her super speed to quicken her exit. Alex has never seen Kara this upset.
