A Leap of Faith (Part 2)

Chapter 264 - Sam = Reign

Kara now lands in the L-Corp lobby, in her full Supergirl suit, with an extremely angry look on her face. A bunch of L-Corp employees look at her with frightened looks. It's not every day they see National City's hero looking this pissed off. Kara then makes her way through the lobby, with security not making any sort of a move to stop her, and she quickly walks to the stairwell, which she flies up, all the way to the floor which she knows Sam's office is on.

Once Kara arrives on Sam's office floor, she heads in the direction of the office. A few moments later, she enters, and she sees that the first office area, which contains Sam's assistant's desk, is empty. So, Kara walks her way through the office, and towards Sam's office door, which she opens, and sees Sam and Alex sitting on a couch together, with Sam holding a laptop, both with concerned looks on their faces.

"Kara!" Alex exclaims, standing up, and looking surprised that her sister is here, "What is going on?"

"She can tell us what is going on." Kara says, as she points at Sam, with an extremely angrily look on her face.

"Hey! Don't talk to my wife like that." Alex quickly snaps.

"For Rao's sake, Alex!" Kara shouts, "J'onn just found out that Sam was the one that gave the FBI evidence that made them arrest Lena! This is Sam's fault!"

"Wh... what?" Alex says, with a confused look on her face, and now turns to look at Sam, "Is.... is this true?"

Sam (Reign) now sighs, and stands up.

"I'm sorry you both had to find out like this." Sam says, with a sympathetic look on her face, "I was going through some of L-Corp's books the other day, as part of my job as CFO. In doing so, buried deep in the files, I found evidence that ever since Lena took over L-Corp, she has been embezzling money, and also selling weapons made by L-Corp to terrorists, and pocketing that money too. I couldn't believe it. And..... I knew that I couldn't take it to Lena, because she could just hide things again, and I knew none of you would believe me. So..... I did what I had to. I contacted the FBI and sent them all the documents, so they can run their own investigation."

"This is bullshit!" Kara shouts, "You know that Lena would never do anything like that!"

"I thought I did." Sam replies, with a sympathetic look on her face.

"Sam.... you were just pretending like....you didn't know..... We just spent the last 20 minutes..... going through L-Corp documents to try and figure this all out..... Why? Why didn't you just tell me?" Alex now asks.

Sam sighs again.

"This is a complicated situation, Alex. I mean.... I handed in evidence on my best friend. My best friend who also happens to be your sister-in-law. I didn't want to put you in the middle of all this. I didn't want you to have to choose sides. I hoped that eventually you'd see the evidence for yourself, and see the truth from that. You'd see that Lena is not different from her brother after all." Sam says.

As soon as Sam says that, Kara quickly flicks her foot, and completely smashes the glass coffee table in front of Sam's office couch, with it going flying against the wall. Meanwhile, Alex just stands there with a stunned look on her face, as she looks at Sam.

"You........ Sam...... would..... never say anything like that..... She...... she would never believe anything like that." Alex says, "You....... you're not my wife."

Kara quickly jumps into action, and presses Sam up against the wall, holding her forearm against Sam's throat.

"Who are you?!" Kara roars, "I swear, you better tell me."

"Alex! I'm telling the truth." Sam says, with an alarmed look on her face, "I'm Sam! I'm your wife! You need to get her off me! She'll kill me. This.... is hurting Alex. Please!"
