Chapter 35

While Kara spent the rest of the day telling her parents everything she could about her life on Earth, Barry decided to do her a favor and call Clark.

"Barry, this is a bit of a surprise." Clark said when he picked up.

"Hey, you free right now?" Barry asked.

"Yeah why?" Clark asked.

"You need to get to the DEO now." Barry said.

"Why is there a problem?" Clark asked.

"No, but it's something you'd need to see to believe." Barry said.

"Okay, we'll be there in a bit." Clark said and Barry could tell that Clark was confused.

"So, you called Clark." Jeremiah said.

"He'd never forgive us if we didn't tell him and I'm pretty sure that Kara's got more pressing things on her mind right now." Barry said with a smile as he watched his girlfriend.

"I already called Eliza, she's on her way here now." Jeremiah said.

"I can't believe that Kara's parents are still alive." Barry said.

"You okay?" Jeremiah asked.

"Yeah, it's just." Barry said.

"You're worried she might decide to go back to Argo aren't you?" Jeremiah asked.

"Can you blame me? I mean, Argo is her home." Barry said.

"Barry, she made it clear that she wants to stay here on Earth. Stay with you and her parents are moving to this planet. I don't think you have anything to worry about." Jeremiah assured him as they heard a familiar gust of wind and turned to see Clark enter the DEO.

"Okay, so what's the deal?" Clark asked.

"Come with me." Barry said as he led Clark over to where Kara was talking to her parents.

"Knock, knock, mind if I interrupt for a minute?" Barry asked.

"Yeah, what's up?" Kara asked.

"Just figured that there was someone else who needed to meet our new guests." Barry said as he moved to let Clark in.

"Kara, who are these people?" Clark asked.

"These people Kal, are my parents, your aunt and uncle to be exact." Kara said, shocking Clark.

"What? But I thought that they were dead." Clark said.

"Wait, Kal-El, is that you?" Zor-El asked.

"Uncle Zor-El." Clark said.

"Kara told us that you arrived on Earth before she did and actually was all grown up by the time she arrived." Alura said.

"Yeah, I wanted to raise Kara myself, but between my job and my life as Superman, I knew I couldn't give Kara the normal stable life she needed." Clark said, moving to explain himself, but Alura held up her hand.

"You don't need to explain yourself Kal. Kara already told us and it's understandable. You did what you thought would be best for Kara and it sounds like everything worked out in the end." Zor-El said.

"I go by Clark on this planet." Clark said.

"Yes, Kara told us how you both live in disguise to protect your loved ones." Zor-El said.

"Speaking of, if you're staying, we need to start putting together both human identities and a cover story where you've been all this time." Kara said.

"That can wait until tomorrow. For now, I think we'd like to see more of this city." Alura said.

"Well first I think you might need to go shopping, since no offense, but those clothes won't exactly help you blend in on this planet." Barry said, since both Zor-El and Alura were dressed like they were on Krypton.

"Alura can borrow some of my clothes until she develops her own wardrobe." Astra said, reminding them all she was there.

"Astra, I just noticed your bracelet, what is it?" Alura asked.

"A red sun brace. J'onn was able to get me a deal. The brace dampens my powers as a part of my deal." Astra said.

"How long do you have to wear it?" Zor-El asked.

"A few more months then she's free to move out of the DEO, though she does have to live with a blood related family for a still undetermined period of time, though until now we thought it would have to be Kara." J'onn said.

"Well, once we get a cover story in place for Alura and Zor-El, Astra can live with them if that's okay." Jeremiah said, since he could tell that while Kara was willing to put Astra up, now that it was clear there was another option, she hoped Astra would take it.

"I think that would best. That way I can help Alura and Zor-El learn to adapt to life on Earth." Astra said.

"What name are you going under right now anyways?" Kara asked her aunt.

"Astra Star." Astra said, since her first name wasn't that uncommon on earth.

Before Kara could say anything else though, Piper joined them.

"I'm sorry to interrupt sir, but we've finally located Non and his army." Piper said.

"Show time." Kara said as she, J'onn and Astra got up and left, along with Barry and Clark.

"She really is a hero here isn't she?" Alura asked Jeremiah.

"One of Earth's greatest. And I think that we owe a lot of that to you two." Jeremiah said.

"I would not be so sure about that. We weren't quite as shining citizens as Kara thought we were. We made mistakes." Zor-El said.

"Maybe, but everyone makes mistakes. The important thing is to make sure you learn from them." Jeremiah said as they moved to join the others.

"We got their location in the Nevada desert." Kara said as J'onn removed Astra's brace.

"I thought she couldn't take that off?" Alura asked.

"The only exception is for emergencies like this instance." J'onn explained as he shifted back to his green martian form.

"Are you sure it's safe for humans to approach the site?" Kara asked Astra, who nodded.

"Myriad hasn't been activated yet. Hopefully we can stop Non before that changes." Astra said.

"I just texted Cisco, he said he, Iris and Firestorm will meet us there." Barry said.

"Good, let's go." J'onn said.

"Mind one more." Clark asked.

"We could use all the help we can get." Kara assured him.

"Then what about us?" Zor-El asked, worried for his daughter.

"No. I just got you back, I'm not losing you again. Everyone else here has had time to learn how to use their powers, you and mom haven't. I'll be fine, I promise." Kara said as she hugged her parents before flying off, with J'onn, Clark and Astra flying behind her and Barry running after them.
