Chapter 97

After returning to National City, Kara and Lena threw a party at their house to celebrate their engagement, since the news that one of National City's premiere power couples was engaged hadn't gotten out yet, since once it did, the floodgates would open and Kara and Lena would never get a moment alone to themselves.

So tonight, at their house, they were hosting a small party for their team, along with family. Though it was also serving as a going away party for Alex and Felicity, since Felicity had decided to take the job offer to run the Argo Enterprises facility in Palermo City and Alex was transferring to the DEO facility there, though it was a little rundown and understaffed, due to lack of use, but now J'onn was recommissioning and Kara was talking with him about having her company renovate it.

Currently in the house were Kara, Lena and Krypto obviously, along with Alex, Felicity, Nia, Brainy, J'onn, his girlfriend Jen, Eliza, Jeremiah, Karen, who'd dog sat for Kara while she was gone, Donna, M'gann and Zatanna, since Zatanna was also leaving town to move to DC to join Diana's team of Legends, since she'd taught Lena everything she knew about the mystic arts. Everything else Lena would have to figure out herself. Especially since from what Diana told her, her team dealt with more magical threats than Kara's team did, so it would help to have an actual sorceress on the team.

"So, was Krypto a good boy while we were out of town?" Kara asked her younger sister.

"He was. And he was a big help when I had to cover for you as Supergirl. I'm just glad no one realized that I was shorter than you." Karen said, since to make sure National City was taken care of while all of its Justice League members were away, Karen had used the fact that she was a direct clone of Kara to cover for her, despite being a little shorter. She'd worn both Kara's costume and an image inducer, since while she was a clone of Kara, due to her age, she wasn't an exact lookalike of Supergirl yet.

"People focus more on the cape than anything else." Kara assured her.

"And I get to be a bridesmaid right?" Karen asked.

"I'm offended, you have to ask. Of course you do. Though Alex is going to be my maid of honor." Kara said.

"And luckily between my ring and the zeta tubes, popping over to help with wedding planning will be easy." Alex said to her sister.

"I am going to miss you Alex, but I'm also glad that now you're getting your chance to be your own hero outside of just being my partner." Kara said.

"I'm just glad they don't think of me as your sidekick, since I'm older than you and we're both Justice League members." Alex said.

"When do I get to join the Justice, since please don't say when I'm 18, since that's about 15 years away." Karen said and Kara chuckled.

"No. In your case it'll be special circumstances, but you need to graduate high school but you're considered. And that goes for both Donna and M'gann.

"Right. Does that mean our relationship is illegal since I'm technically dating a two year old?" Donna asked her girlfriend jokingly.

"Considering the fact that physically and emotionally I'm the same age as you no. Though if you want, I'm sure I could call the police and tell them you've been making out with a baby." Karen joked as Donna smacked her.

"Shut up. It's the least you can allow me considering all the cracks I get from our teammates about being in a relationship with a literal child." Donna said, since Karen was physically a teenager and she was the leader of Young Justice, there were times she reminded them of her true age and acted like a child.

"Hey, I never had a childhood, trying to make up for it now. Since unlike everyone else here, I grew up in a lab after being sped up to a teenager." Karen reminded her.

"Why do I have a feeling that this is a frequent argument?" Kara asked as Karen walked away and Donna sighed.

"Sometimes I do forget that even though she's my age in a lot of ways, Karen is a lot younger and she's touchy about it. I think that's part of why she works so hard in Young Justice, since she's the youngest member, since even Connor was created before her, and yet she became leader, so she feels like she needs to prove that she deserves it. And sometimes I do forget where the line is with those jokes." Donna admitted.

"Donna, you can't let something like this sit around when you know it's an issue. Especially since you keep letting it go unattended. Otherwise it could blow up your relationship and I have a feeling that this is just a part of what's bothering Karen. I suggest that you talk to her after the party and finally have her get it all out in the open. But for now, let's try to have a nice time." Kara said and Donna nodded as she went to find Karen and calm her down.
