Chapter 162
That night, after everyone else had left, Kara was surprised that her sister and her fiance had insisted on staying until after everyone else had left.
"Okay, so what exactly is going on that required you waiting until after everyone else had left?" Kara asked her sister as they, Sara and Barry all sat down in the living room.
"You remember that investigation I told you about?" Alex asked.
"The one about you investigating General Lane for a connection to Lex Luthor?" Kara asked.
"Yeah well, there's something else we came across that we didn't tell you about, because it was more of a face to face thing." Alex said.
"Alex, what is going on?" Barry asked as Sara pulled out her tablet.
"This is surveillance footage from a bug we had planted in Lane's hotel room in National City." Sara said as she played the video and they all saw electricity crackle off Barry due to how angry he was.
"General Lane is working with Thawne?" Barry asked.
"Barry." Kara said, trying to calm her husband down.
"Barry, I can't even begin to imagine how angry you must be about this right now, but please, don't do anything reckless." Alex said.
"He killed my mother and he's been a pain in my ass for years. Why shouldn't I do something about him now?" Barry asked.
"Because we have a much larger plan in place and if you try and make a move against Thawne right now, you could ruin all of it." Alex said.
"What plan?" Kara asked.
"There's some sort of conspiracy going on within the government and I'm positive that it's because Lex Luthor has his paws sunk into it. The only reason I haven't had Lane arrested yet is because I want to know how far up the chain of command this thing goes." Alex said.
"You have someone on the inside." Kara guessed.
"Lane's other daughter Lucy works for the DEO now. She's our undercover operative within her father's ranks." Sara said.
"So, what do you need from me?" Kara asked.
"Well, since you can't save the world as Supergirl for awhile, I thought that maybe you could do it as Kara Allen. I want this story to be made public, I want the world to know what Sam Lane is up to." Alex said.
"Okay, but I think that we need to run this by Lois and Lucy first, since look at what Lex's actions have done to the Luthor family name. Lena is still working hard to convince people that she is not her brother. If we expose Sam Lane's actions like this, we risk ruining both Lois and Lucy's reputations as well." Kara said.
"Well Lois can just switch to using her husband's last name." Sara said.
"No, Kara's right. Lois deserves to know what her father's up to, since while this scoop is Kara's alone, maybe Lois and Clark can both help dig up more evidence to help with this." Alex said.
"Maybe I can help you out to." J'onn said as he entered the house.
"J'onn, I thought you left." Kara said.
"I forgot my jacket and I may have overheard what you saying." J'onn said.
"You're not staying here very long J'onn. I don't want to pull you away from Mars any longer than you need to be." Alex said and J'onn smiled.
"Actually, I think this is where I need to be. The war on Mars is almost over and the old regime is nearly toppled. Once the resistance movement began to make real progress in the war, more and more joined their ranks and since Zor-El finally managed to reverse engineer the chemical that turns Green martians into white ones so that it can do the opposite, my race may soon thrive again. Even if all the white martians don't want to do it, our two races will be able to live in harmony. Earth is where I'm needed more." J'onn said and Alex smiled.
"Well then, welcome home." Alex said and J'onn smiled.
"And I'm more than willing to help you with this." J'onn said.
"Good, cause the more evidence we get on this, the better." Alex said.
"Let's talk." Kara said as she invited J'onn to sit down and join them.
