Sara approached a place that looked like an old warehouse. It was a big place, had two floors and the guy she followed just got inside it, so she smiled to herself as her instincts seemed to be right. She walked around the place, trying her best no to be seen as studied her surroundings cautiously. Alex came in also cautiously and Sara saw her by the distance. She made a sign with her hand so Alex would come and hide with her.

- You found their new headquarters! – Alex said as she looked at Sara, impressed.

- I never thought about a plan so quickly in my life, but it seems it's working. – She said as she gave a quick peck on Alex's lips.

- We need to go inside – Alex said – Try to find if they have anything to do with today's attack... A boy died.

- No... - Sara said as she covered her mouth with one of her hands.

- We will avenge his death!

- Yes, we will! -Sara said as she held Alex's hand with hers – Let's go!

They walked to the entrance as quietly as they could. Once they reached the entrance, there was three guards there and as soon as they saw Sara and Alex, they attacked.

- It was too easy to be true! – Sara said as she deflected a hit, turning around and kicking one of the guards in the head.

- Things are never easy with those guys! – Alex said as she fought the other two.

Alex and Sara combined some of their moves to take those two down. Each one of them went into one guard's direction, Sara giving her enemy a roundhouse kick and pal-heel striking him on his chest. The other guard deflected Alex's punch and grabbed her by the neck. She hit his head with hears, forcing him to let her go as she gave him a front elbow strike. One at a time, the guards fell down on the floor, unconscious. Alex and Sara looked at each other, and smiled. Sara felt a sharp pain down her neck and Alex got hit by a fist in her cheek. They both fell to the ground. Behind them, Cyborg Superman and an agent looked down at them.

- You know what to do with intruders... - Cyborg Superman told him as he Grabbed Sara and dragged her to a dark corridor, thinking about how Lillian would be pleased.

- Yes, sir! – The agent grabbed Alex and dragged her down to the other corridor.

Back at the DEO, Kara was alone at one of the training rooms as the others were all in the operations rooms, thinking about what to do next.

- Guys... - Kara said as she appeared, walking slowly and with her eyes swollen and still red from crying too much. – We need to do something... Interrogate Gorgon, something.

Oliver looked at how broken Kara looked and it tore him apart inside. He looked at the others, excusing himself as he reached for Kara's hand, bringing her to a quiet corner.

- Are you feeling better? – He said as he held her in his arms.

- I don't know if I will ever feel better again...

- I know you will, because you are strong Kara – Oliver said as he looked deep into her eyes – It's one of the reasons why I felt attracted to you in the first place. And please know, I will do everything I can to help you bring justice to that boy.

Kara cleaned her eyes with her hands as she looked at Oliver in a loving and caring way. It was such dark times for her, she was glad for his support, and for him being around her.

- You are too good to me... - She said as she caressed his cheeks – Thank you.

- You are way too good for me and I don't know if I deserve you, probably not, but one thing I will tell you now. You will get pass this and we will find justice together. For now, we have to talk about a delicate situation. – He held her hands with his. – Sara and I were attacked as soon as we left to go help you. We saw the news at that alien bar. We've heard they talking about some Cadmus thing and I remembered J'onn telling me what and who they were. We took down some of them, but one escaped and Sara went after him. She told me she was going to talk to Alex, and now, just before you came in, Winn told us that Alex reached for him, asking him to look for Sara's tracker. We found her, so it means we found Cadmus, but Alex's not answering her com anymore, neither are Sara.

- We have to go after them, then... - She said as she walked back to the operations room.

Oliver walked after her and reached for her hand again.

- Kara, wait!

- We can't wait... We need to act now.

- Kara, please... - Oliver said as he caressed her hand – We can't rush there without knowing anything else.

- And how are we supposed to do? Wait? Until one more person gets killed, Sara or Alex?

- It won't come to that; we won't let it happen. I already talked to J'onn and the others, so I need to know if you are ok with this before keep with our plan.

Oliver looked at Kara, thinking about the best way of telling her their plan without her freaking out. There was no way she couldn't freak out, he thought, but he owed this to her. It was her Earth, her people in danger and she would call the shots as long as he was concerned.

- I may have a way to have information, but it won't be pretty...

- What do you mean? – Kara looked apprehensive at him, fearing what he was going to say.

- Lyra and James brought Gorgon in. He's locked in one of DEO's cell downstairs. The team there found out he was manipulated with some drug or something, after they ran some tests. Something messed with his mind for him to do all of that, and we need to know for sure what is going on. I'm going there with James and Lyra and we will... Interrogate him.

- And if he doesn't cooperate?

- We will make him!

- Oh...

Kara looked at Oliver full of worries in her eyes, not knowing what to think. She trusted Oliver, of course she did. But she also knew this kind of this was part of his dark past and she feared for what it would do to him, since he came so far.

- Ollie...

- If you think it's too much, say the word, but it might take too long for us to find what they are up to.

- Hey, I trust you... - Kara held his face with her hands – I'm just scared... For what it might do to you...

- Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. – He looked at her as he held her tight – I just needed to know if you were ok with it since this is your Earth.

- I'll never be fine with torture Oliver... But I understand, and I get it. I also trust you. I just don't want to be close by, I could hear something and... Just... - She said as she grabbed his chin, kissing him slightly – Please find what you can and then we will plan Sara's and my sister's rescuing.

Oliver, James and Lyra walked in the room where it had a huge cell. It was made of glass but the kind of the unbreakable and impenetrable one. Oliver looked at James and Lyra with a serious face.

- I'm not happy with this, I put it behind me a long time ago, but we don't have another choice. You can ask him first, see if he will cooperate, but if he doesn't, we do this my way. I warn you, it won't be pretty, it won't be nice. And I won't allow interruptions or regrets, so if any of you has something against it, I suggest you leave now!

- We accept your terms – Lyra said as she looked at James – It's Sara's and Alex's lives...

- And justice for that boy... - James said as he looked at Oliver, nodding with his head. He was unsure, he was scared for the first time in a long time, but he was up for it.

Lyra and James walked to his cell as they looked at him inside. He was sat on the floor, looking peaceful ahead of him, his tentacles floating around his body. Lyra took one step forward.

- Who do you work for? And why did you attack the school?

- I was following orders... - He said as he kept his peaceful look.

- Whose orders? – James crossed his arms, taking a step forward as well.

- I'm not going to tell you!

- If you know what's good for you, you will! – Oliver said as he looked from the distance.

- Bring it on! I'm not scared of you.

Oliver gave just one look at James and Lyra and they got it. They took several steps behind as Oliver took a black bag from the floor and brought it with him inside the cell. He told James to lock it again and he did it, leaving Gorgon and Oliver trapped inside the cell.

- First of all, - Oliver said as he gave a side kick to Gorgon's jaw, knocking him out since he was already weak because of what he was given. He kneeled to the floor and gave a few punches into his face. – This is for that boy!

Oliver got up, shaking his hands as they were already full of blood and he barely had started. He grabbed Gorgon by the collar of his jacket and made him sit again.

- Now you will listen to me! – He said in a low and deadly voice that gave both James and Lyra chill down their spine. It was the first time ever they were getting a glimpse of dark Oliver. – You will tell us what we want, whether you like it or not! One last chance! Answer the nice lady...

- No! – He said as he spat on Oliver's face.

Oliver took him by his neck as he pushed him forward, making his head hit the floor. He grabbed a needle from the black bag and injected on his right arm.

- Thanks to our Martian friend, we learned your species are allergic to something...

- NO! – Gorgon yelled.

- Yes! And I'll make it ten times worse if you don't tell us anything... - He injected again into Gorgon's leg and was rewarded with a scream of agony.

- In five minutes your insides will burn. And then I'll start dismembering you piece by piece, but I' won't kill you because you will suffer long enough to tell us what we want...

Gorgon just yelled in pain, refusing to talk. Oliver lost his patience. It was a long time ago since he had to torture someone, but he had no patience at all to take his time. He grabbed a sharp pincer as he aimed for his pinky finger, cutting it out in one single motion. Lyra hid he face on James's shoulders as James looked with wide eyes and his mouth covered by his hand.

- OK, OK.... PLEASE STOP, IT HURTS! – Gorgon yelled as Oliver mentioned to take one finger at the time.

Oliver lowered the weapon as he took a step closer to the prisoner.

- Lillian Luthor kidnapped me and said I was going to be Earth's king, something I wasn't able to do in my planet... She said I just had to break Supergirl, make people lose their faith in her. She knew how it would affect her, and told me she would look for Supergirl's friends, so they would pay as well. I never wanted to kill anyone, but she drugged me. I guess it makes anyone do what she says... Because I felt loss of control, I couldn't command what my body did... And she threatened to kill me if I ever told anyone.

- And it's her plan?

- She only told me to do it, she would take care of the rest. She called her agents to stop you, but if your friends are there, at her place... They are screwed!

- We'll see about that! – Oliver said as he punched Gorgon one last time, getting out of the cell as James opened it for him, and locking it again.

Everyone was feeling the tension at the operations room. Oliver came in being followed by a terrified Lyra and a scared James. Oliver just cleaned his blooded hand with a tissue and looked at everyone.

- Cadmus is behind the attack, it was all to bring Supergirl down – He looked at Kara, with his eyes full of love and compassion towards her. She forced a smile at him, understanding his looks as she lowered her head, still sad. The attack on us was to stop us from helping. And now they have Alex and Sara hostages, probably. The place is crowded by Cadmus's agents, so we have to be careful.

- I have an address – Winn said as he pointed Cadmus new location on the screen.

- Let's go! – J'onn said as he clapped his hands and Kara, Oliver, Lyra, James and a bunch of DEO agents followed him.

They all suited up and did not take long to reach were Sara and Alex's trackers pointed them to be, it was not that far away as they thought it would be. J'onn, Kara and Oliver came in the front as Lyra and James came right after, with the other agents following them.

- I think we should split... So we cover more ground – Oliver said as he looked around

- I think we should kill you! – An agent from Cadmus showed up from the corner of the main room they were in as plenty more appeared out of nowhere.

Kara flew high as bullets hit her and fell to the ground, since they were normal bullets this time around. Oliver aimed his bow and arrow to the front as he shot, hitting some of the agents in different parts of their bodies. Some of them fell down to the ground as others just yelled in pain. Someone jumped from high above, collapsing with Oliver as they both fell down. Oliver rolled in the ground and got up, fighting the guy. James and Lyra fought some guards of their own in the middle of the fuss, James using his shield to stop some bullets from hitting him. He turned around, hitting an agent's face with his shield as Lyra gave two of the agents a butterfly kick. She felt someone pulling her hair backwards as she was obligated to take a few steps back. She was really pissed by this, since she noticed it was one of the Cadmus agents.

- Let me tell you something... - She reached behind her, as she grabbed the guys' arm, twisting it around and side kicking him on the ribs as she let his arm go – You don't just grab my hair like that without my permission! – She said as she kicked his face as he tried to get up.

Cyborg Superman showed up and J'onn turned himself into Martian Manhunter, going right into his direction. Cyborg Superman held his cape and pulled him down, making J'onn hit hard the ground. J'onn got up quickly, flying to his direction with his fists hitting Cyborg Superman's cheek.

Arrows flew everywhere, hitting other agents in non-deadly ways as Kara flew around, knocking down whoever she could. More agents came up and it was getting impossible to deal with them all. She took a deep breath and blew hard at their direction, knocking them all like it was some bowling game.

Cyborg Superman got up in a rage, throwing himself above J'onn, making him hit his back hard against the floor. He chocked J'onn as he gave repeatedly punches on his face with his free hand. Kara saw it and came flying fast, grabbing Cyborg Superman and throwing him across the room, making a huge hole on the wall. He came back, full force on Kara, throwing her far away across the room, creating a huge hole on the other side of the wall. Kara got up quickly and she took the fight against Cyborg Superman to herself. Oliver on the other hand used his bow to hit some agents in a fast combination of moves. He was surrounded by four of them as he hit them one by one. He felt someone jump at his back, trying to choke him. He grabbed the guys' arm and bent his body forward, throwing the guy over him across the floor.

- James, help J'onn, he's bleeding – Kara said as she punched the three guys he was fighting now, with all the strength she had.

James ran so he could help J'onn stop with the bleeding. It was ugly but not life-threatening.

- I can hold on! – J'onn said, with his hand on his stomach as he tried to stand up, stil as the Martian Manhunter. – Go, and don't worry about me! I'm fine!

Kara looks around as she saw half the agents down. There was only a few of them still fighting. She flew to the second floor, looking for Lillian Luthor. Oliver shot an arrow into one of the agent's eye and ran after her. On their way up, Oliver dropped two guys' downstairs as they tried to attack them by surprise. Kara looked back and then down to where the guy fell.

- He's not...

- No, he's alive... He'll just have some broken bones – Oliver smiled at Kara as they kept going on.

- Ok... - Kara said as she gave one last glance back – Hum... Something tells me she must be up there – Kara said pointing front as she saw a huge stair with a single door at the top of it.

- I'm right after you – He said as he aimed his bow and arrow, looking around for more surprises.

Gladly the surprises, at least for them were over. They reached the top of the stairs and Kara held the door's hand knob, apprehensive.

- I hope they can find Alex and Sara... - She looked to Oliver as they entered the room together.

It was a dark room, no one single light at all. Oliver left the door opened as he shot an arrow to the wall and it glowed, a bright green light. Kara looked at him, still impressed with the fact his arrows were so different, and so useful. He was really a smart guy, he seemed to have the solution for everything.

- I was hoping to see you Supergirl... - Lillian said as she came out of the shadows of the room.

Oliver looked at her really pissed off. Apparently some villains from this Earth had the same habit as Malcolm Merlyn had on his Earth, to come out of the shadows in a creepy way.

- Why are you doing this? Where is my sister? – Kara said as she looked at Lillian.

- One thing at the time! – She took a few steps towards Kara, smiling viciously – And don't be naïve, you know why! The world needed to see what a fraud you are.

- This is a bunch of crap, lady! – Oliver said as he aimed an arrow to her, holding his bow up high.

- I see you have some company – Lillian smiled as she looked at Oliver – Whoever you are... I may call you Robin Hood...

- It's Green Arrow! – Oliver said in a serious voice – And start giving is actual questions if you don't want an arrow through your eye!

- You wouldn't dare!

- Oh, you would be surprised! – Oliver smiled as he aims to shot – I have some experience on this department.

As Lillian is about to make a move, Oliver shoots her with an arrow right through her knee. She cries out loud in pain and advances to Supergirl as they fight. For some reason Kara feels weak, as she couldn't find strength to fight Lillian. At the same time, Alex came running in the room, throwing herself in front of Lillian as they fought, making Kara and Oliver look at her, surprised.

- Alex? How...

- Explain later, long story! – Alex said as she grabbed Lillian by the neck, but had to let her go as Lillian stomped on her foot with her heels, kneeling her in the guts right after.

Alex bent in pain and when she was about to fight back, Lillian took a green knife full of kryptonite. She aimed Kara's back as Kara felt weakness taking over her the moment Lillian took the knife out of her pocket. Oliver aimed an exploding arrow at her.

- STOP! – He yelled as he prepared to shot – Or I'll throw this arrow in my hands and explode the whole building. I know just where to do it – He said as he aimed some pipes at the ceiling of the building.

- Would you kill us all? Aren't you a hero? – Lillian said, still aiming the knife at Kara as she grabbed her by the neck. Alex got up quickly, looking at Oliver as tension washed all over her body.

- I have permission to do it, so don't tempt me! – He said in a deep voice

Kara looked at him feeling lost and confused. What was he talking about? He had permission to kill them all? Explode the whole place down? What, in Rao's name he was thinking?

- Oliver... What....

- Kara, you need to grab Alex and go away... Right now!

- What? What is going on?

- She has this place full stacked with kryptonite. She's ready to kill you. I told you that I wasn't going to let it happen. And I wouldn't let you lose your sister as well. So you need to be really fast, honey, and get out of here...NOW!

Oliver said each word with deep hurt inside him. He knew once the time came, he had to do what he had to do.

- Who said I can lose you? And about the others? Sara, John, James, Lyra?

- They ordered me to do it.

- WHAT? - Kara said as she looked around.

- They told me if I had to explode the place to keep you and your sister safe, I should do it... Now, please, Kara... Go!

- I won't!

- KARA...GO! – Oliver said as he felt a single tear falling down his eyes. He was not going to break down now. That sick woman wouldn't win.

Kara looked at Lillian, feeling completely desperate. She was just recovering from the guilt of losing that kid, she wasn't sure she would ever recover 100% and here she was, about to lose important people in her life because that crazy woman hated her and her kind.

- Lillian, you still can be saved. This all can end now, please...

- I don't need saving, my dear. And no, this can't. I did not come all this way to give up now.

- You are willing to die for it? This makes no sense...

- I won't die, he won't do it. He is not a killer, he is a hero, and from what I've learned, heroes don't kill...

Oliver aimed the arrow high above as he smiled to Alex. He turned his attention to Lillian.

- The thing is, I am a killer.

Kara looked at him with her eyes full of tears that insisted on dropping. How could everyone agree to die for her like that? How could they ever agree with something like that? She looked desperate to Oliver as he looked at her, full of sadness in his eyes.

- I love you, Kara – He said as he shot the arrow, closing his eyes.

Kara acted out of impulse, the same time Oliver shot, grabbing Alex and flying far away from that huge warehouse. She felt lost, she felt desperate, she felt sadness, she felt empty. As soon as she hit the ground outside, a huge explosion was heard and she kneeled on the ground, sobbing hard as Alex held her.

- NO! IT CAN'T BE! ALEX, I CAN'T HAVE LOST EVERYONE I LOVE... - Kara teared up as he lost control of herself, sobbing hard on the ground... - James, Lyra... J'onn... those agents...Sara...Oliver, he... He just told me he loved me AND I COULDN'T EVEN SAID I LOVED HIM TOO... I JUST CAN'T, NO... - Kara held Alex strongly, almost breaking her arms without meaning as desperation took over her. She trembled as she cried, not feeling like getting up from there, ever again. As far as she was concerned, Kara Danvers' life was also over.

Alex just held Kara, tears falling down her eyes as she tried to comfort her sister. To see Kara, have that melt down, it really broke her heart into million pieces. She couldn't find word to say anything, just to look at the war scenario in front of her.

- I... I don't... I can't go on... I... - Kara said as she sobbed, resting her head into Alex's shoulders. – I just can't...

- Yes, you can sister. – Alex said as she caressed Kara's hair. She looked behind her and gave a small smile at the corner of her lips, many tears falling down her eyes. – You can!
