The DEO

When the Super Cousins arrived back at the DEO, Barry's eyes lit up when he saw Kara limping, Clark helping her, over to them. "Kara," Barry said before he speed over to her and started to check for anymore injuries.

"I'm fine," Kara said.

"Kara," Barry muttered again, ignoring what she was saying.

"I'm fine," Kara said again before Barry hugged her. "I'm just a little dizzy."

Since Kara was now holding onto Barry, Clark stormed up to J'onn. "You told me that only the DEO had access to kryptonite. So how would you like to explain what just happened out there? A kryptonite-charged cyborg almost killed Kara. Almost killed me. Start talking, J'onn," Clark said and J'onn sighed before staring at Clark, Kara, Barry and Iris.

"A shipment went missing four months ago. We've done all we can to find it," he said.

"Four months ago?" Clark asked.

"Went missing?" Barry asked.

"Stolen. We thought it was an inside job but everyone in the transport came up clean," Alex said.

"So you have a mole," Clark said.

"We don't know that," J'onn said.

"If you'd gotten rid of it when I told you to-" Clark started.

"We would have been helpless when Non and Astra launched Myriad. Or have you forgotten that there was a force even the Man of Steel couldn't defeat?" J'onn asked and Clark started to walk closer to him, angered by his comments.

"Superman and Martian Manhunter are gonna fight," Winn said.

"This is terrible," Iris said.

"This is awesome," Barry said.

"We have given our lives protecting the people of Earth. If you cared about Kara at all-" Clark started.

"Watch what you say," J'onn said.

"Or what?" Clark asked, but suddenly every single screen in the entire DEO, and every single screen in all of National City turned into a talking head, it almost looked like Gideon from the Time Vault.

"People of National City. The Earth has been stolen from us. And the enemy has come in the guise of heroes. They say they come in peace, to protect us from ourselves. But how long will it be before these gods decide to rule instead of serve? We are the antidote to their poison. We are the scientists who will show them what humans are capable of. Those who have sided with the invaders will not be spared. You cannot stop us. We are everywhere. We are Cadmus."

Then all the TVs went back to normal and everyone looked at each other, intensely. "Cadmus. Announcing themselves to the world. Declaring open war," Iris said.

"They want to kill us. All of us," Barry said.

"Cadmus has my father. If they turned John Corben into Metallo, what do you think they've done with him?" Alex asked.

"We'll find him. And stop them," Barry said.

"How?" Alex asked.

"Metallo isn't just flesh and blood anymore. Cadmus has given him a metal endoskeleton. Traces of the alloy had to end up on my hands when I hit him. I can analyze it at the Fortress of Solitude," Clark said then J'onn looked at Winn.

"Agent Schott, get Non and Astra's anti-kryptonite technology out of storage. See if you can improve upon it for our two friends here," He said which made Winn fidget.
