Kara and Lena are now deep in the bowls of this old Luthor Corp building, and much to the surprise of both women, as the two have walked further into the building, they have noticed that there actually seems to be power in the centre areas of the building. Lena theorises that this is because the centre areas are likely the areas that are running off the second power grid connection, as the centre areas of this building also happen to be the areas with the old labs, Lillian labs, and some computer storage rooms, so all places that likely have been designed to not wanting to lose power.

"Uhh.... Lee...." Kara soon says, after a couple of minutes of walking in this building, "I should have probably asked you this earlier, but do you exactly know where we are going?"

"Sort of." Lena replies.


"Sort of?" Kara asks.

"I only ever went to Lillian's lab on a few occasions." Lena admits, "And the last time I did, I must have been like 10 years old or something. That would be over 31 years ago, so I don't exactly remember everything."

"That's....... longer time than I have been alive." Kara says.

"Yes..." Lena nods.

Kara now starts to grow a weird feeling in her stomach, which, as a response to this, causes Kara to send out some awkward pheromones, which Lena is soon able to pick up on. Upon sensing these pheromones, Lena turns around a looks at Kara.


"Darling, you don't need to feel bad. You know I don't care about our age difference. I love you, and you love me. Our age gap doesn't matter one bit to me." Lena says.


"I.... know..... but..... what if..... what if you change your mind one day...." Kara says, awkwardly, "You..... you have a lot more life experience than me.... and I don't mean to say that in a way to say you are old. I mean.... you have done things.... and been through things that I haven't yet.... and I will be experiencing for the first time eventually, both in my career, and in life in general. Won't you..... won't you get tired of just having to go through all of that again just by being with me?"

"No, darling." Lena says, now stopping in place, and looking into her future wife's eyes, "I won't. And you know why? Because all of the stuff that you are referring to, is stuff that I basically went through on my own when I was your age. Yes, I was in a relationship with Andrea at the time, but it was basically the same as going through it on my own. So, while I may not be able to turn back time and go through those things again, I will be able to experience them by my proximity to you, and being your wife one day, and I look forward to that. I look forward to being able to give you a helping hand, and guiding you, while also giving you advice, in a way that I really wish I had when I was going through those things. I love you Kara, and nothing will ever change me wanting to be with you, and go through all that again."

Kara now starts to grow a smile on her face at Lena saying that, which soon grows into a very wide smile.


"I love you." Kara says.


"I love you too, darling. Very much. Remember that." Lena says, and then takes Kara in for a tender, loving, kiss.

Kara and Lena now continue further into the old Luthor Corp building, going down a few more corridors, with Lena now growing a look on her face almost as if she remembers this place, and where she is going, but it's still a bit fuzzy in Lena's mind. Eventually though, the couple turn a corner, and at the end of a corridor they come across a metal door with a keypad beside it.

"This is it!" Lena exclaims.

Kara and Lena now both approach the door, and the first thing Lena does is just try and shove the metal door open, but it doesn't budge, it's locked.
