Lena looked at the computer screen intensely, looking if there was something, just one thing that would lead to Lex. Her brain was then interrupted when her phone vibrated. Sighing she picked up the phone, only getting a smile on her face, when she saw from whom it is...I guess it's a particular blonde.

Miss charming: Hello beautiful! Just wanted to inform you, that Alex and I are coming back to National City. We are boarding the plane right now.

Miss beautiful: Can't wait to see you, handsome...I missed you very much.

Miss charming: I missed you dearly, hope to see you soon.

Miss beautiful: See you soon, honey.


Lena clutched the phone tightly, leaning back onto her chair, as a soft smile was on her face. "By Hades, it already looks like you guys are together, but just indirectly." Maggie complained, just as she entered the office, this time through the actual doors...What a miracle. Lena nearly choked on her own spit, upon hearing Maggie's statement...Which was a fact. "We are not dating-." Lena was interrupted my Maggie: "Yet." That's when Lena just kept quiet, knowing she lost this argument. "I don't think she feels the same way." The Luthor blurted out, causing the demon to rethink all of her life choices. "Lena, how many times are you going to deny this?" Maggie asked, kind of frustrated, that a genius such as Lena Luthor, was denying a fact that cannot be denied. Lena just kept quiet, not knowing what to say, she was just lost...Because a part of herself is screaming that Kara feels the same way, but another voice is telling her, that there was no chance.

"I have known Kara for a long, long time...I know she isn't someone to love easily...But for how long I have known her, I have never seen her get vulnerable...Vulnerable with emotions she had buried in the deepest graves inside her..." The demon said honestly but stopped, aware that she was stepping in a topic her master should tell...But a little help wouldn't hurt, right? Lena released a huff, being the stubborn self she is, but she took Maggie's word...Maybe there is a chance. The demon slowly walked towards the CEO, who seemed to be thinking about many things. "Anyway, did you find anything?" Maggie asked, knowing that she should change the topic. The Luthor came back into reality, looking back to Maggie before looking at the computer screen. "Until now, there are only three potential hideouts, where Lex could be hiding. First is in the northern mountains, second in Kaznia and third Shelley Island." Lena answered, as she showed Maggie the location and what potential information they hold. The demon looked intently on the map, searching if there was any connection that could involve with Linda, but there was nothing.

Hours go by, papers pinned to a board or scattered around the floor. Maggie calling a few 'colleagues' to look around the locations. Lena was just looking file after file, having this gut feeling that there was something in one of the hideouts that Lex needed for. Her brain started to think about any possible project that had an important meaning to her brother. She knew that Lex's goal was always world domination, and she knew al too well, that her crazy brother had some device to accomplish his plan...Just what could it be? After rummaging through files, an idea popped in her head. The last time she was adducted by Lex, they were in Shelley Island, explaining his plan by creating a device to mind control humans, but he was stopped before he could even do something about it. She knew the machine was probably already built, just not successfully tested...Now she was sure, Shelley Island is where they have to look.

"Maggie." Lena said, getting the demons attention. "I think I know where Lex is hiding." Lena said, as she showed Maggie the one project her bother would wanted to accomplish. The demon just looked at the screen, utterly shocked what kind of maniac ideas Lex has...She is used to meeting evil souls in Hell, who have done a lot of sins, but this evil creation in front of her is absolutely...Terrifying. "You think he's there?" Maggie asked, looking at the CEO with a shocked expression. "I am sure..If not, then we could at least find something there." Lena answered, before she grabbed her coat, indicating that they should go immediately.
