I am in Lena's secret lab looking at a dog and an alien animal
They are in one cage each behind a plastic barrier keeping them from hurting each other
They are snarling at each other
I don't get it. I said
I haven't done anything yet. She said with a smile
But what are you going to do? I asked as I walked over to her and put my hands on her waist
Then she pushed a button on the tablet and the animals eyes glowed green
What the hell. I said
Go pull the barrier out. She said and I did
Instead of the dog and alien fighting they got along
I smiled
Well, isn't that cute? I wasn't aware a Maladorian Dendroasp could show any restraint. Lex said when he walked in
Well, you two share a lot in common. Lena said and I chuckled
Just like your boyfriend. Lex said
He's my husband. Lena said
Right. Non Nocere does what god couldn't. Turns the most ferocious animal instincts into "do no harm." So far, all of your animal trials have produced perfect results. Lex said
Yeah, but the human brain is far more complex and I've yet to test it to see that it's working just as perfectly. Can't have any critics bouncing on any mistakes. Lena said as she started typing on a keyboard
Hmm. That has a bit of a personal ring to it. Let me guess. Your biggest critic is a kryptonian? Lex asked
Before Crisis, when I tried using Myriad, she assumed that I was trying to mind control people. Her and her friends think I'm going down the dark path. Lena said
No they don't Lena, that's what you think they think, and if you think that then maybe you're more like Lex than you thought, Myriad was designed to mind control people and to be fair you did trap Kara using kryptonite to get it, are their suspensions really far? I asked
Whose side are you on? Lena asked
No one's, because I love each person on both sides, Kara is my best friend she helped me when I was at my worst, but you are my wife, and you saved me just like she has, I love you both, I can't choose either one of you because if I do I'm losing the other. I said
And I would never make you choose. She said
Lena this project is amazing, and I love you for trying to save the world with your smarts and not any power, but you'd be taking away free will, if you use this on a person who is truly good, you'd probably be changing them or hurting them. I said
And I love you for supporting me, and for helping the world. She said
Great, you both love each other, Theo, can you leave for a second so I can talk to my sister. Lex said
I looked at him
Give us a second. Lena said to me and she kissed me
Sure. I said and I left
Skip
Me and Lena are at a prison that her family owns
I am in a black suit with my arms crossed as we look through a window in a different room
All of these men volunteered? Lena asked
They did. It's a cross-section of inmates from the most violent to those who are afraid of their own shadow. The warden said as me and Lena walked into the room the prisoners were in he followed us
Then I saw a small bald man bump into a tall man that had so much hair
What are you looking at? The man with hair asked
Nothing, nothing. I'm sorry, Toby. The bald man said and Toby pushed the bald man against a cement beam and held him there
I walked over and pulled Toby off him and pushed him towards guards
Are you all right? Lena asked the bald man
The second I saw her show sympathy I fell in love with her even more if that was possible
It's nothing. That was practically a high five, considering what he does to me most days. The bald man said
How do you cope? Lena asked
It's prison. Guys like me don't stand a chance. Five years in here taught me that. But maybe after your trials, I will have to worry. I've heard you're trying to turn them peaceful as quakers. If you succeed, that'd be a real godsend for guys like me, Lena Luthor. The bald man said
Let's get started. Lena said
Then we turned around and walked away
Skip
The tests have started we are doing it on everyone at a time
Non Nocere program uploading. Let's see if this works. Lena said and all their eyes turned green
Gentlemen, stand and remove your lenses. The warden said and the men stood up and removed the VR lenses
Then Toby looked at the bald man
Yo, Steve, come here. Toby said and Steve walked closer to him thinking he was going to get hit
Do you wanna grab some grub? Toby asked
Uh, sure, Toby... That would be lovely. Steve said
Yeah. Toby said and walked away
They all started to walk past us and when Steve passed Lena he whispered something
You're a genius. Steve whispered
I put my hand on her lower back and she smiled at me
Skip
We are still here at the prison
We are watching through the window
Toby is walking up to Steve
Hi, Steve. Toby said while holding a deck of cards
I'm sorry, I'm sorry... for whatever I did. Steve said
Everything okay? Toby asked
No, it's not. Steve said as he got up from the bench he was sitting on
I'm not okay! Steve yelled and tried to punch Toby but it's like his mind stopped him
He started shaking
Then he screamed in pain
We ran into the room and over to Steve
Steve laid down on the bench while screaming
Steve! Steve! Lena yelled while running over to him and she put her hand on his back
Get a medic! Lena yelled
Skip
I'm gonna keep an eye on the other prisoners to make sure this doesn't happen to anyone else, come get me when you're ready to go. I said to Lena
Okay. She said and I walked out the infirmary
Skip
I just helped Kara stop an alien from killing people and now I am flying into Kara's apartment
Hey. Kara and Alex said
Hey. I said and I walked over and stole some food off Kara's plate and she punched me
I thought you were with Lena. Alex said
No, she's working, I'm about to head home after this. I said
So why are you here? Kara asked
What, I can't come see my best friend and her very scary sister who I love very much. I said
Thank you. Alex said with a smile
You're welcome. Alright, the baby sitter is done for the night so now I have to go. I said
Have fun. Kara said
Sure. I said and I flew out
