"I refuse to allow you to do this to her." Alex growls, brown eyes practically glowing with fire. Lucy wasn't sure that she had ever seen the older Danvers sister that angry before.
"It's for all of our safety." Lucy insists.
"Kara has saved all of our lives more times than I can count, and you're keeping her in a cage!" Alex yells, fists clenched at her sides, trembling with rage. From Cat's vantage point, it looks like the elder Danvers might punch her own girlfriend.
"Alex, it wouldn't be worth it if she hurt someone. You remember how it was after the Red Kryptonite. We can't let Kara go through that again. She would never forgive herself." Cat finally speaks up, her voice tired and pained.
"Let me out! I'll kill them; all of them! I'll burn down this whole damned planet if I have to! YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME!!!" Kara bellows in the same way that she had been for the past three hours. Her voice was pure heartbreak and fury. She paced the glass containment unit like a caged animal, cape sweeping out around her on each turn. Every now and then she would look out at the women watching her with fear and concern in her eyes and the alien's own bright blue one would glimmer with recognition.
She'd turn away immediately, holding her head, wincing and muttering to herself. It was at those moments that Cat could feel her heart splinter just a little bit more, each time. It had been so hard to restrain her, and even now, the Kryptonite shining around her should have reduced her to a puddle of alien on the ground. Once the anger would reach its zenith, Kara would slam her fist into the glass barrier, over and over again. Reduced to a human's strength, Kara didn't do anything but hurt herself.
Whatever had affected Supergirl was strong, trapping her into a tailor made nightmare. It was Kara's own personal hell.
After a couple hours worth of ranting Cat, Alex, and Lucy had pieced together what was going on in that blonde head. Kara was locked inside of a world where Cat, Carter, Alex, Eliza, Winn, James, and Lucy had all been taken from her. The threats were the result of all her losses combined now.
No matter who it was that they put in front of Kara, she never recognized them as one of the people supposedly stolen from her. Alex recognized that look in her sister's eyes as that of someone that had lost everything. Blood dripped from Kara's knuckles. Four matching streaks decorated the clear, bulletproof material that encased her. Cat had spent the first thirty minutes begging Kara to stop hurting herself.
"Where's the Martian?" Cat asked, her voice hoarse.
"He's coming as quickly as he can with Clark. There was some meeting with the Justice League. Oliver recognized something about her symptoms and explained it to him." Alex says dismissively.
"Give them back!" Kara yelled again, banging the glass doors with her forearms.
"I hate the Queens." Cat grunts.
"I'll call my sister and see if anything like this has happened with Clark." Lucy felt like she just had to do something.
"Please Kara. I'm right here with you. WE are all fine." Alex begged, pressing her hand flat against the outside of the glass cage.
"Stop it." Cat protests.
"No, she needs us, Cat. Without us, what does she have to live for?" Kara's face is furrowed with deep lines of hate.
"She lives for getting us back. This is my Keira that we are talking about. She won't stop." Cat insists.
"Say that again." Alex's eyes widen.
"My Keira won't stop." Cat repeats.
"She heard you."
"What?"
