As Supergirl flew back towards National City, she could hear her cousin flying behind her.

"I told you to leave me alone." Supergirl shouted without looking back.

"You know I'm right about Lena Kara." Superman called back to her as he caught up to her.

"You don't even know her, you jerk. You just assume you do because you can't see past your grudge with Lex. Just because Lex was insane that doesn't mean that every member of his family is." Supergirl said.

"Kara, could you please try and understand what I'm saying." Superman said as they landed on her balcony, where Krypto was waiting.

"No, because you're being an unreasonable asshole." Kara said.

"Okay, sounds like I'm beginning to understand why I was summoned here." Lois Lane said from where she was sitting on Kara's couch.

"Lois, what are you doing here?" Clark asked.

"Kara called me and said she needed me to talk some sense into you and the kids wanted to come visit Aunt Kara." Lois said.

"And by that, you mean they wanted to see Krypto." Kara said with a smile, since Clark's kids loved playing with Krypto.

"Yeah pretty much and I'm also here to get an exclusive for the Daily Planet about the chaos in Central City, including the reports of the mysterious red blur." Lois said.

"He calls himself the Flash. He's a new metahuman with super speed who seems to be going down the same path I am. I gave him a way to contact me if he needs any help, but you can't print that last part. Also, you can't print that at my board meeting tomorrow, I'm going to be revealing plans to help out with the relief effort for all the damage done to the city and also buying Star Labs. I'm gonna be heading back to Central City in a few days to oversee the rebuilding and get the deal set." Kara said.

"How exactly are you going to sell them on buying a company that blew up a city?" Lois asked.

"Simple, we can acquire them for next to nothing now that they're in ruins and while the accelerator failed and I've never supported it, they have a lot of other incredible research and projects that we can now acquire. But I won't mention how doing so will likely save jobs and reputations for the people who still work at Star Labs. But anyways, that's not why I called you. I called you here because your husband is insane." Kara said.

"What did he do now?" Lois asked before Clark could say anything as Kara brought Lois up to speed.

"I really wish I had some kryptonite right now so it would hurt more." Lois said as she slugged her husband with as much strength as she could, knowing that it wouldn't hurt him.

"What was that for?" Clark asked.

"Because Kara's right. You're being a stubborn old fool." Lois said.

"What? Lois, you can't possibly think that Kara involving Lena Luthor is a good thing. She's just like her brother." Clark insisted.

"And you know this how? Kara's been working side by side with Lena for months and she's proven herself trustworthy." Lois said.

"Lois." Clark said.

"Question, am I anything like my father?" Lois asked suddenly.

"What, no of course not." Clark said, since Lois's father, General Sam Lane, was known for being xenophobic and outspoken against aliens, especially Superman and now Supergirl. Which had led to him and Lois becoming estranged after she fell for Clark and learned his secret.

"Exactly. My father is almost as bad as Lex, but if you can learn not to paint me with the same brush, why can't you do the same thing for Lena?" Lois asked.

"Because you're not the one the closest thing I have to a little sister has a crush on." Clark admitted, and both Kara and Lois were surprised to hear that, but in all honesty, they shouldn't have.

"So, this wasn't about the fact that Lena's a Luthor and more about the fact that you're being overprotective of me." Kara said with a slight smile.

"Pretty much. Especially since you were right when you said I wasn't there for you when you first arrived here. I should've taken you in myself, not just pawned you off on the Danvers." Clark said and Kara smiled.

"I know why you did it. It's for the same reason I avoided going to the Fortress for so long after I landed here. You thought it would make me miss home even more than I already did." Kara said.

"And I felt like it might be hard for you to be around the baby cousin you were sent here to protect who'd already grown up all the time. I thought it might make you feel like you'd failed. Plus, I have a lot of enemies as Superman and I wasn't willing to let any of them know about you until you were old enough to protect yourself. Especially since according to the records in the Fortress, a lot of the Fort Rozz escapees I was dealing with after you arrived were sent there by your mother. I had no interest in letting them know you were alive to get their revenge on." Clark said.

"I understand Clark. But that doesn't change what I said about kryptonite." Kara said.

"Wait, you tried to bring up that topic with him. I've lost track of how many times he and I have had that particular argument." Lois said with a chuckle.

"He's the one who always says that we're not gods. And if that's the case, then he shouldn't have any problem with there being a way to stop us if either one of us goes dark and the other can't stop them." Kara said.

"Except I gave Batman a piece of kryptonite for that exact reason. And maybe I'm being paranoid, but while I trust J'onn, to an extent, I don't trust the government. What happens if he gets an order from a superior officer, the president. And what happens when he's not in charge anymore. I know it seems arrogant, but it's more the fact that kryptonite is being used and controlled by people I don't know or trust that I have an issue with." Clark said.

"Maybe, but people could say the same thing about us." Kara pointed out.

"I know." Clark said.

"And we all know that Bruce won't be around forever. Even if he doesn't get killed by one of his numerous enemies, eventually it'll be old age. You have to find some common ground Clark. Find a compromise that won't make you seem like an arrogant god." Lois said.

"I've thought of a compromise, it's just not one that the government would ever agree to." Clark said.

"And that would be?" Kara asked.

"The director of the DEO is the only person who can authorize the use of kryptonite, not even the president can overrule that and if there is a new director, either Supergirl or myself personally vets them before they're given authority over Kryptonite, to make sure that whoever it is that controls it is someone we trust." Clark said.

"That's actually relatively reasonable." Kara said and Lois nodded.

"Yeah, but I doubt that the government will agree to that." Superman said.

"You won't know if you don't try. Especially if doing so will strengthen the United States' relationship with the man of steel." Kara said.

"Maybe." Clark agreed.

"Okay, is that everything you needed me to mediate on?" Lois asked.

"Pretty much." Kara said.

"Good. I'm glad we got this sorted out." Lois said.
