Chapter 6
"Looks like bugging your dad's apartment was a smart move." Luke said to Kate as she, Kara, Mon-El and Lena re entered the main chamber of the Batcave where he and J'onn were standing by the computers.
"You bugged your own father?" Kara asked.
"As soon as Sophie told me the lengths my father was willing to take his hatred of vigilantes to, I decided I needed to keep closer tabs on him." Kate said.
"And it's a good thing too since it sounds like your father is willing to unleash on this city in order to take you and Kara out." Luke said.
"What's he planning?" Kate asked.
"He just convinced A U.S. Army General to put Alice in contact with whoever it was that gave him that weapon he attacked Kara with in order to turn you both into martyrs that he can use to then get the green light to kill Alice." Luke said.
"Okay Kate, considering the fact that your father is putting innocent lives in jeopardy, I think he takes precedence." Kara said.
"On that we agree." Kate said.
"So, what's the plan?" Mon-El asked.
"We need to get as much evidence against Jacob as we can. This video is a good start, since I'm sure it's not the first time a reporter or the GCPD got a bit of information from the Bat." Kara said, looking at Luke, who nodded.
"Okay, so we leak the video to the police, but my dad has a lot of people in the legal system who owe him favors." Kate said.
"Which is why I'm going to have Winn send me all the evidence he has, since honestly, this is one problem that I don't think can be solved just by punching a guy." Kara said.
"Too bad." Kate said.
"Look, that's just the way the world works." Kara said.
"So, what do we do in the meantime?" Mon-El asked.
"I'll see if Clark can have Lois get in touch with her father, since we need to know when and where the weapons sale he and Jacob are setting up with Alice, since we can't risk her getting those kinds of weapons." Kara said.
"Clark?" Luke asked.
"Clark Kent is Superman." Kate said simply, since it wasn't like Luke wasn't going to find out soon enough anyways.
"Thanks for revealing his identity Kate." Kara said, rolling her eyes.
"Anyways, we should also figure out who this supplier is." Luke said.
"It's my brother." Lena said immediately.
"Wait, what?" Luke asked.
"This has Lex Luthor's fingerprints all over it and he's more than willing to let innocent people get hurt just take out people he feels are a threat to him and even though we erased his memory, I have a feeling that both Supergirl and Batwoman are high up on that list." Kara said.
"You erased his memories?" Kate asked.
"Lex is dangerous enough without knowing the identities of Supergirl, Batwoman, the Flash, Green Arrow and practically every other hero out there." Kara said and Kate nodded, not arguing with that, since while she'd only had to deal with Lex during Crisis, she'd learned that he was a selfish douche who'd risk the fate of the entire multiverse to further his own goals.
"Fair enough. But anyways, how can you be sure that Lex would be the one to hand out this kind of fire power. Wouldn't it leave a trail right to him?" Kate asked.
"Lex maybe insane, but he's also a genius. He's spent years mastering the art of covering his tracks. He likely wouldn't make the sale directly, he'd use several corporations in order to cover his tracks." Lena said.
"Unfortunately for him, I have experience uncovering them." Kara said.
"You think that we can get a location on the buy?" Luke asked.
"That depends, J'onn, have you restored Lucy's memories yet?" Kara asked.
"I haven't been able to get close enough to her without her father being around to do so." J'onn said.
"Who are you guys talking about?" Kate asked.
"Lois's younger sister Lucy Lane. She's an army lawyer who works closely with her father and she used to have a very similar mindset towards aliens as he does, though she was slightly more open minded, but only slightly.
"Why would you want to restore her memories?" Luke asked.
"I said she used to. After I revealed my identity to her, she became much more open minded and understanding towards aliens. But more importantly, she can get close enough to her father to plant a bug that we can use to find out where the buy will be and intercept it." Kara said, right as her phone rang.
"Who's that?" J'onn asked.
"Clark. I'll bring him up to speed on our plan." Kara said and J'onn nodded as Kara took the call and explained the plan to him.
"I'll call Lois. I'm sure she'll be more than happy to help us not only bring down her dad, but also maybe begin to heal her relationship with Lucy." Clark said.
"Great. See you soon." Kara said as she hung up.
