The next day, Iris was standing with Winn, with Supergirl and Flash on the side, when Mon-El walked up next to Iris. "Sorry I'm late. What'd I miss?" Mon asked and Iris refused to look at him.

"Awkward silence," Winn said as J'onn walked up next to Winn.

"Roll the tape, Winn," J'onn said.

"Yeah," Winn said before he pulled up a footage from Livewire's jail break. But instead of escaping, Livewire was knocked unconscious by the prisoner and the guard.

"Now, I'm no jail break expert," Winn said.

"Livewire didn't escape. She was taken," J'onn said.

"She was a victim. I was wrong," Kara said.

"Don't beat yourself up," Barry said.

"Agent Schott, have you had any luck tracking Livewire or the people who took her?" J'onn asked.

"Not yet. I'm actually having some trouble delineating her energy from other wavelengths," Winn said.

"You keep working. Mon-El? You're on standby," J'onn said before he looked at Kara and Barry. "Supergirl. Flash. I need you in the med bay." He then looked at Iris. "Iris, you stay here with Mon-El."

J'onn, Kara and Barry walked off to the med bay but Winn got his phone out, and called James. "Hey, you got a second?" Winn asked into the phone as he walked into a hall.

"Yeah. How's the mood down there?"

"Oh, pretty bleak. They're all worried 'cause I haven't found Livewire yet. Funny thing about that? I totally know where Livewire is," Winn said.

"How?"

"Short answer, science. You wanna go catch her with Me and Iris and show Supergirl and Flash exactly what we can do?" Winn asked.

"My man. And woman. In the van."

And Winn laughed. "Guardian for the win," Winn said before he walked off but Mon poked his head out by the hall, listening in on the entire conversation.

When Supergirl and Flash walked into the med bay, they saw that M'gann was on death's door, with Alex standing by. "Oh, no," Kara muttered.

"It won't be long now," Alex said.

"We're not saying goodbye," J'onn said before he sat next to M'gann in a chair. "I'm bringing her back. I have to try the Bond. It's the right thing to do. I've, uh, never attempted this with a White Martian. I don't know what'll happen."

"If things get hairy, I'm gonna pull you out," Alex said.

"I need you to do something for me," J'onn said.

"Of course," Barry said.

"I'm going to relive some things. Deaths. The war," J'onn said.

"What do you need?" Kara asked.

"Stay with me. All three of you," J'onn said.

"We're not leaving," Barry said.

"We're here, J'onn," Kara said.

"Always," Alex said.

"Alright," J'onn muttered before he took M'gann's hands, and closed his eyes.

Inside her mind, J'onn found himself in the middle of Mars, during the war. Children screaming out for help, fires going off, camp sites of Green Martians growing. J'onn looked next to him to see M'gann watching it all from a distance. "M'gann?" J'onn asked.
