Chapter 8


Kara started remember everything that went down on her Earth and felt terrible and she remember hearing everything that happened to Lillian Luthor. She really hoped she could have reached her, but it was impossible – she understood that now. Lena must be devastated. They hated each other, but she knew that deep down Lena hoped to win her mother's love. That would never be possible again and she felt guilty. Oliver came in, sitting next to her as she asked him to sit with her in the bed, making room for him.

- Please, you two, behave – Clark teased them, greeting Oliver as he sat straight in his bed.

- Hi to you too, Clark – Oliver laughed and looked at Kara – How are you feeling today?

- I'm feeling so much better right now.

Caitlin came in and told Clark he was free to go, 100% healthy again. Clark waved at the couple on the bed and thanked Caitlin. She got out of there with him for Kara's exams results.

- I can't stop thinking about Lillian... How I couldn't save her... - Kara rested her head on his shoulder, hugging him by the waste.

- Hey, we all couldn't. – He caressed softly her hair with his fingers while he gave a kiss on her forehead. – You don't have to feel guilty about it, babe.

- But I do... I can't help it.

- You are a hero, and you did what you could. Sometimes we cannot save everyone, and I know that hurts. It hurts like hell, but sometimes it's out of our reach. We are not Gods. – He looked at her with sudden sadness on his face that got her curious. She squeezed lightly his hand, telling him with that, that it was ok. – I couldn't save my best friend... I couldn't save my mom, or Laurel. I couldn't save Felicity's boyfriend. I felt so much guilty I could barely handle it. They all were brutally taken before my eyes, and there was nothing I could do. I felt helpless, the only thing I managed to do afterwards, was to bring them to justice. I did it with Malcolm, but now the bastard is traveling through time. I know that Sara and her team will handle him, but still. I did it to Slade and I killed Darhk. I know the legends will manage to take care of him too. You know Barry went back in time to save his mom, and was forced to let her die after saving her and changing everything. We cannot control these things. If we let it, it will make us drown in sorrow.

Kara listened to him, giving a kiss on his cheek, a sweet one, while she caressed his face.

- You are so strong, is hard to believe you survived all of this. I'm so sorry you had to face all of this...

- Like you said – He looked at her – Hardships makes us stronger. And I know you are strong. You are a hero Kara, never doubt that. I guess your friend Winn is trying to reach you as Cisco told me. You will want to answer him – He smiled waiting for her to hear the news herself.

Kara tapped her com and called Winn.

- Yes... It's me.

- Kara, thank God. Or Rao as you like to say... Are you ok?

- Never been better – she looked at Oliver with a smile on her face as she said that.

- I have huge news for you, girl. The media is going nuts about what happened. They are spreading the word how Supergirl and Superman, with a bunch of new heroes they never heard of before, discovered Cadmus plans and saved the city. We kinda leaked the whole thing to them, with all the proof you guys found. Cisco sent me and I worked my magic here. The Mayor wants to give you and your cousin the key to the city and the people are asking for your forgiveness. TV interview people all the time that prays for you guys to be watching them, so you can know how sorry they are they ever doubted you.

- Winn... This is... This... - Kara was unable to keep talking. Oliver took her com and told Winn his thanks, but that Kara was unable to keep talking. Winn understood and greeted Oliver before hanging up.

- Hey babe... Come here – He said as she hugged him, crying her eyes out.

- It's happy tears – she told him, with her head on his shoulder.

- I know – he smiled at her, still hugging.

It was overwhelming to Kara heard about all of that. She fought so hard for her adoptive planet, she loved them so much. It was so important to her that they had faith I her again, that they were sorry for everything. Of course she would forgive them, she would always forgive them. Finally that terror was over, and she felt happier than ever. Then reality came down to her like a cold water bucket in her head.

- That means... - Kara looked at him with a sad voice – That means I'm going back home...

- Yes... - Oliver looked at her, feeling a bit sad himself, but confident enough that they would make everything work out. – I've been thinking about it and...

- I totally understand if you want to break us up – She started looking down to the floor. Oliver reached for her chin, lifting up her face so she could look back at him.

- Never – he said kissing her slightly – I promised you we were going to find a way, and I think I did.

- You did? – She sounded surprised and with a light of hope inside her.

- Kara I would cross world everyday for you. – He smiled brightly at her as he held her hand. – I know you have your job in your Earth as I'm the Mayor of my city here, and we both work by night to save the world, but I promise you we will spend every night together, I will come over, or you can come over.

- We can work on organizing this so it wouldn't be hard for both of us.

- We can take turns. One week I come over, and then you come over... And we will talk everyday, we can see each other with our new cool devices Cisco made us. And if you ever need help, just let me know, and no matter what, I'll be there – he said as she slowly kissed him.

- I guess we just redefined a distance relationship. – she said as they laughed.

Later that night, everyone was gathered as Star Labs, celebrating. It became a usual thing for them to do every time they won some war against some really dangerous enemies. The party was at its end by now, and Alex asked to talk to Kara and Clark.

-I know this seems out of sudden, and I love you guys. – She said while hugging them. – But I will spend some time away.

- Why? – Kara asked surprised as Clark looked at her in shock

- Where are you going?

- Sara invited me to be part of her team for a while. And I accepted.

- What? And what about our world.

- It will still be there when I come back. I will always visit from time to time as well. I'm not saying goodbye for good, I just... I need to find what else I can do, for me you know? It will be good for me. And I'm getting to know Sara better as well. We are really happy, and we want to see where this thing goes.

Kara and Clark were still looking at her in shock. She couldn't imagine being away from her sister, but she understood about needing to find what else is out there, what the life can offers. She noticed how Alex followed her advice as they were always doing everything together. And she also noticed how her sister was happier and this was the most important thing to her.

- Please tell mom not to worry, I will be back next week to talk to her and explain things to everyone, so she won't feel abandoned

- Ok... I will miss you so much – Kara said fighting her tears while hugging her.

- Kara, I know you will be visiting this Earth frequently 'cause of a certain green hero. It won't be that hard...

- Yes it will be, you are my sister... I will always miss you. – She looked at her in a sweet way that made Alex drop a few tears as well – I love you.

- I love you too. Both of you – she said while Clark hugged them as well.

The legends said their goodbyes, and took off in Wave Rider, getting ready for going back to search for Legends of Doom – as Cisco named them. Iris came to pick Barry ip so they could go dinner, and he approached Kara and Oliver, with a big smile on his face.

- I couldn't leave without hugging you two. – He said – I am so happy for you guys.

- Thanks Barry – Kara said smiling back at him

- See you at the wedding man – Oliver said while Barry hugged him as well

- I know you are a huger, don't you ever pretend otherwise – He laughed as he said goodbye to everyone else and left with his fiancée.

The rest of the team Flash went home as well. One by one from team Arrow left as well, after Thea invited Black Siren to be on the team for good. She said she was going to think about it and then took of.

- I will miss having you everyday around here – Thea said hugging Kara – If I ever get bored here I will totally borrow his device and go hang out with you there.

- You are more than welcome. I live by myself, it gets really lonely sometimes – She said smiling back at Thea.

- Oh I'm sure that won't be a problem anymore – She teased them as she took off – See you at home, brother.

- Bye Thea – Oliver said, laughing at her joke.

They stood alone in the huge hangar, holding each other strongly. Kara rested her head in his shoulder, feeling his scent, that scent she loved so much.

- I don't want to leave.

- I don't want you to go – Oliver said while caressing her head. He was wearing a dark green cardigan, and lifted up his head, taking it off and putting on Kara, that gladly accepted. She could not feel cold, like ever, but she was glad to have something with his scent now. – For you to always be with me somehow. –

- I loved it – She said caressing his neck as she kissed him – She took off a small golden chain she wore all the time underneath her suit. – I have something for you too.

- It's beautiful.

- It was my moms... My biological mom. And I am giving to you so this way you can always be with me somehow

Oliver pulled Kara to him, holding her by her waist while kissing her passionately. She turned around and pressed her device, already missing him. The breach for her Earth opened and she looked back, still holding his hand. He came to her one more time and kissed her one last time.

- I love you... Please be safe. – He said, feeling a huge pain inside him

- Be safe you too, I love you so much – Kara let his hand go – See you soon my love

- See you soon babe – he said as he watched her leave.

He turned around after the breach closed, feeling a huge emptiness inside him. They would make it work somehow, he knew they would.
