Okay, little update on this story, it will be joined by two others, one based off Flash and one based off Arrow. I'm trying to avoid spreading myself too thinly and the Trinity were always the stories I had the easiest time with, so I'm gonna focus on them. I can't say when the Flash and Arrow stories will be up, but they will and just like with this story, they will be different from the canons and I will be using different characters in new ways. Hope you like it and please do not ask for more stories, I'm sticking to a hard three in this series and that's final. Now onto the story.

Kara was currently in her office, which basically took up the entire top floor of her office building, the corporate headquarters for Argo Enterprises, which was located in downtown National City and was one of the tallest buildings in the city and she was going over some work she'd missed while she was out of town, while she had the news on in the background and she was on her computer, catching up on work emails and she rolled her eyes when she saw yet another email from Harrison Wells, asking her to partner with him, and by extension have Argo Enterprises partner with STAR Labs on their new particle accelerator and once again, Kara had to shoot him down, since this man just did not get the message, since she did not want to be in business with him, especially on this particle accelerator, since to her, it just seemed like one big bad idea, since she didn't care what safety precautions had apparently been put in place, turning that thing on in the middle of a city was reckless and downright dangerous.

Something she'd actually told Harrison Wells in person numerous times, though he never seemed to listen. It seemed like the man cared more about the potential advancements in science the accelerator could lead to instead of valuing all the potential lives that he was risking by turning on that stupid machine and she wanted no part of it.

"How many times do I need to tell that man no. He might be okay risking innocent people's lives, but I'm not. Especially considering how much damage that could do to my reputation." Kara said, since her company was everything she'd spent her life building towards and she wasn't risking that over something that could blow up half a city.

"Ms. Danvers, there's a Felicity Smoak here to see you." Her assistant, Avery Ho, said, showing Felicity into her office.

"Thank you Avery, that will be all." Kara said.

"Yes ma'am." Avery said as she walked back out to her desk.

"Wow, this is a nice office." Felicity said, looking around.

"Thank you and if you're here, I'm assuming that means that you've decided to accept my offer and the very cushy paycheck that comes with it?" Kara asked.

"Yep. Especially since it sounds like I get to do a lot more than just tell people to unplug and replug their computers." Felicity said and Kara smiled.

"Trust me, your new workstation, it's basically candyland for people like you. You're gonna love it and yes, you can stay with me until you find your own place." Kara said.

"Are you sure?" Felicity asked her.

"My penthouse is huge, there's plenty of room." Kara said and Felicity nodded.

"Great. I can't wait to see Krypto again." Felicity said, since she'd met Kara's dog before and she loved him.

"And he'll be excited to see you too. And we're going out for drinks with Alex, since she was happy to hear that you were considering joining the company." Kara said, right as the news report playing in the background caught Felicity's attention.

"Hey, can you turn up the volume on that?" Felicity asked.

"Yeah, hang on a second." Kara said as she grabbed the remote and turned up the volume to hear the breaking news.

"Breaking news, Oliver Queen has been found. After being presumed dead after his father's yacht the Queen's Gambit went down in a storm 5 years ago, the Star City socialite was found earlier this week on a remote island in the North China Sea." the news reporter said.

"Queen, any connection to the Queen Consolidated that just lost you?" Kara asked Felicity.

"His dad Robert Queen was the company's CEO and according to rumors, Oliver was next in line to inherit the throne before the Gambit went down." Felicity confirmed.

"Huh, for some reason, I feel like things are about to get interesting. Especially with the particle accelerator being turned on next month." Kara said.

"Right, I'm looking forward to seeing that." Felicity said.

"Really, because I've had to turn down Harrison Wells' offer to collaborate on it several times, since I think the whole thing is a bad idea. Or at least building it in such a densely populated area is a bad idea in case something goes wrong. It's not the kind of science that I want my company associated with." Kara said.

"I guess it's your call, but what if the accelerator ends up being a good thing? All the possible advances the accelerator could lead to." Felicity pointed out.

"Maybe, but I think that even without the accelerator, my company is already on the cutting edge enough to not need the accelerator." Kara said.

"Fair point. But still, don't you have a facility in Central City?" Felicity asked and Kara nodded.

"Houses cutting edge technology and prototypes, including a few projects we've partnered with Mercury Labs to develop." Kara said.

"Wait, you know Christina McGee?" Felicity asked, since that was new information to her.

"She was my mentor after MIT. Taught me a lot of what I know, so our companies work together professionally." Kara said and Felicity nodded as they continued talking.
