The only reason Lena hadn't succumb to the tortures she'd been subjected too is because by her best guess, she'd been missing nearly a week now, which meant that Kara and their team would be on high alert searching for her, which meant that Kara would find her very soon, since she doubted that whoever abducted her had taken her being close friends with Supergirl in to account when they'd planned this, since it was only a matter of time until Kara burst through that wall and freed her. Something that Lena was really looking forward to, since after Kara rescued her, there was something she needed to tell her. The only thing besides the pain and her inevitable freedom that has been going through Lena's head for the past week was the blonde. She'd had a lot of time to think about her relationship with the girl of steel, dating all the way back to when she'd first met Kara back at MIT.
Back then she thought her feelings towards Kara were just anger and jealousy, but now she realized that there'd been something else she'd felt, even back then, but it had been hidden under her other emotions so deeply that she'd never noticed it. It had been attraction. And who could blame her, since after all, Kara had always been stunning to look at and she'd only grown more attractive with time. Lena was seriously jealous of Kara's Kryptonian genes, since they meant that while the rest of them aged and grew old and grey, she'd still look like a supermodel.
But after she and Kara had become friends and even more so after Lena had learned Kara's secret, that attraction had grown into something a lot more serious.
However, Lena was pulled from her thoughts when she heard the door to her cell open and she looked up to see none other than her lunatic of an adopted brother Lex Luthor walk into the room.
"Why am I not surprised you're behind this. Mainly because you're getting predictable. But what do you want?" Lena asked, not at all afraid, but instead, her tone was rather bored.
"Huh, you know, I expected a little more emotion when you saw it was me." Lex said, a little disappointed.
"Did you really think that I wouldn't realize that you're the only person on the planet who'd have resources to kidnap me?" Lena asked.
"Fair enough. And is it really that hard to believe that I just wanted to see my younger sister again and this was the only way I could think of to get you to spend time with me?" Lex asked.
"Adoptive sister. Don't forget I had myself tested numerous times after your first time with Superman and confirmed that I don't have a drop of Luthor DNA in me, thank god." Lena said.
"And yet that never mattered to me. Honestly I think that I probably went through more trouble to make you feel welcome in our house than mother or father ever did." Lex said.
"True, but that was before you went insane. And speaking of which, we both know that you wouldn't go through all this trouble to spend time with me after you fired me from Luthor Corp. Not to mention the fact that you apparently decided to rename the family company LexCorp after you fired me, so what do you want? What is this really about?" Lena asked him again.
"Fine, if you insist on being like that, we'll get straight to business. You have something that I think will be very useful to me in my plans." Lex said.
"And what exactly would that be?" Lena asked.
"Your access codes to the Argo Enterprises mainframe. Somehow you convinced Kara Danvers to basically make you her second in command at Argo Enterprises. Not sure how you did that by the way, but kudos." Lex said.
"Why do you need access to the Argo Enterprises database? You're already the CEO of LexCorp." Lena said, wondering how egotistical Lex was that he had to rename their family company after himself.
"Because, as much as it pains me to admit it, Argo Enterprises is the only company on the planet that manages to surpass my genius. They have technology that will help my mission." Lex said.
"And what the hell makes you think I'd betray my friend and my company to you. Especially since I have no plans on going to prison for corporate espionage." Lena spat in his face.
"Oh Lena, why do you always have to make things so difficult?" Lex asked, almost regretful.
"Please, you already knew what my answer would be. But you do realize that coming here to see me yourself in person was stupid right, since by now the National City PD has to be looking for me and I can directly link you to this." Lena said.
"What makes you think that you'll survive anyway besides cooperating?" Lex asked, right as a hole was punched into the far right wall and Lena grinned.
"Because unlike you, I made friends with my city's resident hero." Lena said as Supergirl stormed into the room, with both Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter, who'd apparently decided that this was worth revealing himself on Earth for.
"Huh, I only expected to find Mercy here. Didn't realize that you'd come here yourself Lex." Supergirl said.
"Good thing I came prepared." Lex said as he revealed a piece of Kryptonite that immediately began to weaken Supergirl.
"Only thing is, she's the only one of us you bothered to prepare for." Green Lantern said as she used her ring to quickly contain and destroy the kryptonite.
"Well, I forgot about you and didn't know about the other green guy." Lex said, cursing himself for being so foolish.
"And you don't have the resources to take us all out." Martian Manhunter said as Supergirl felt the effects of the kryptonite wear off.
"And now we're taking you down." Supergirl said.
"Yeah, not today." Lex said before he quickly transmat portalled away.
"Damn it, we lost him." Green Lantern cursed.
"Forget him for now. Our priority is getting Lena to a hospital, Lex can wait." Supergirl said as she rushed to Lena's side and she didn't even have to x-ray her to see how injured she was.
"What took you so long?" Lena asked, since while she'd put on a brave face in front of Lex, now it was over, the impact of her ordeal was starting to kick in.
"Sorry, big city and all that. But let's get you to a doctor. We can talk more later." Kara said, since she could tell that Lena wanted to talk to her about something, but now wasn't the time for it.
