Super Sisters

Chapter 21

Alex's POV

"Dad?" I said. How was this possible? I ran to him and jumped into his arms.

"Alex," he said, tightening his grip on me.

"How?" I asked.

"I escaped," he answered. "Where's Kara?"

"She's in the med bay, healing," I replied.

"What happened to her?" Dad asked.

"She was shot, with a kryptonite filled dart," I explained.

"Shot by who?" He asked.

"Her uncle, Non, he's-um-"

"He's what, Alex?" Dad asked me.

"He's working for Cadmus," I finished. Dad scoffed.

"Why am I not surprised," he said.

"Can I see her?" He asked.

"Yeah, of course, she was probably listening in on us anyway," I said, laughing. We started to make our way to the med bay.

"She still does that?" Dad asked.

"Yeah, all the time," I replied.

"Jeremiah?" Kara said as soon as we walked into the room she was in.

"Kara," dad said as he walked to the side of her bed.

"How?" Kara said, trying to sit up.

"Kara, no, lay down," I told her.

"But I'm fine," Kara argued.

"No, you're not; the solar machine is broken, and we have no way to really get the kryptonite out of your system, so you're on bed rest," I told her.

"But Alex, I'm fine," Kara said.

"No you're not," I argued.

"Yes I am," Kara argued back. Ugh, she's so stubborn.

"No, you are not," I said, sternly.

"Girls!" Dad said, silencing us. "Kara listen to Alex, she knows best."

"Ha," I remarked. Kara childishly stuck her tongue out at me making dad laugh.

We turned around at the sound of the door opening. Winn walked in with Mora who had apparently woken up from all of the commotion.

"Mommy?" Mora said, running to Kara's side.

"Hey baby," Kara said as I lifted Mora up onto the edge of Kara's bed.

"Who's this?" Dad asked.

"Oh, dad this is Kara's little sister Mora from Krypton, we found her a little while ago. She crashed into a field in a kryptonian pod and we took her in," I explained to my dad.

"Wow, hey there Mora, how old are you?" Dad asked Mora.

Upon hearing this, Mora got shy and buried her face in Kara's body.

"Mora, this is your grandpa, can you tell him how old you are?" Kara said to Mora. "Sorry, she's shy," Kara told dad.

"I'm four," Mora said, holding up her fingers to show dad. We all laughed because she held up only three fingers instead of four.

"Four," Kara repeated, putting up another one of Mora's fingers for her. Mora hid her embarrassed face in Kara's arm which was draped across Mora's shoulders.

"It's ok, honey, no need to get embarrassed," Kara told Mora.

Short and sucky I know.
