A Leap of Faith (Part 2)

Chapter 349 - Sandwich Delivery

"The satellite is in place?" Kara says, "Well? Can you see Reign? Can you find her?"

"Kara, darling, it's not quite as simple as that." Lena says, as Winn begins to type away.

"Yeah." Winn adds, "The Mojave dessert is very large. We can obviously narrow down the search area by using the projections of where I believe Reign may have landed. However, that still leaves us with a rather large area to search. Plus, Reign may have actually moved by now, so she won't be at where my projections put her, or my projections could be off, or my projections may have just been right up until a certain point, before Reign's powers just cut off entirely, and she simply fell out of the sky, down into the ground. Then, on top of all of that, even though Reign is a world killer, we will still be looking for someone human sized, using satellite imagery. It's a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack. Although, maybe not as extreme."

"So, what is the point of even using this satellite then, if the chance of actually finding Reign is so slim?" Kara asks.

"Well, it's useful to use, because we won't actually have to manually use the satellite and look through all the imagery to try and spot Reign ourselves. Winn and I can just set up a programme to automate that for us, which will both be quicker than us doing it manually, and will free us up to do other things." Lena explains, "Plus, while spotting Reign might be difficult, as she will be so small in comparison to the entire Mojave Desert, we might be able to spot evidence of her presence. For example, if Winn is right, and Reign was losing control of her powers, and basically fell out of the sky, even on a projected arching path, it is unlikely that she landed with grace, meaning there would be a crater to look for. If we could then find that crater, it would make searching for Reign very much easier, as we can then simply work from that point in the desert."

"Okay...." Kara nods, "I think I get it.... So..... why don't you.... all..... set up that programme..... and do what you do..... and I'm going to give these sandwiches to Lillian, Sam and Alex."

"Yes, okay." Lena nods, "Speaking of, where's Ruby?"

"Oh, she decided to stay back at our place, to spend time with the girls." Kara says.

"Okay." Lena nods, "I thought she might want to do that."

Kara simply nods her head and now walks out of the main entrance area of The Tower, and heads further inside to go and finding Lillian, Alex and Sam. The first one that Kara comes across is Lillian, who is in one of the labs, on a computer, typing away.

"Hi, Lillian. How's it going?" Kara asks.

"Hello." Lillian says, "Unfortunately, I can't say that I'm getting anywhere."

"That's okay." Kara says, "It was kind of a long shot, and I'm sure that looking for resource supply links would take a team of people days to find, let alone one single person. Plus, it's not even like we know where the stuff is being sent to, which would make it easier to track, but that's the whole reason we are doing this, to try and find Leviathan's base of operations."

"Yes, it is proving to be rather difficult." Lillian says, "Speaking of which, have you spoken with Lena and Winn?"

"Yeah." Kara nods, "They couldn't get the communicator device working. Luckily I have the teleportation device thing at home, in one of my bedside drawers, so we have that to fall back on."

"Oh.... that's an interesting place to put it, but I guess good in this instance." Lillian replies, "Are you planning to go to the other Earth now?"

"Uhhh, no. I think I'll head there tomorrow morning. If I go now Oliver might be in the middle of something, and not be able to help until later, and then I'll end up getting back to this Earth really late and stuff. So, it'll just be more convenient to go tomorrow morning." Kara says.
