Lena Finds Out (One shot)

Hit and Run

Yesterday...

Supergirl was speeded over to her best friend that lay unconscious on the floor. Knowing that her mom and her henchman, Hank Henshaw, were escaping she scooped Lena up in her arms carefully. Winn was now yelling at her to, "GET OUT OF THERE!" since Metallo was pulsing like a strobe light and his eyes flickered through his skull looking like a lantern. 

Supergirl made it out of there just in time as a giant green glittering mushroom cloud erupted behind her. A wave of relief came over her, bring Lena a little closer to her chest knowing that they both almost died tonight. And for the record Winn was also relieved based on the loud groan and sigh that made it through the coms as well as the noise of his back hitting the back of his chair almost slumping all the way down. 

If there was one thing certain that Kara knew, it was, To protect the ones you love at all costs.

But she didn't know how much it was going to cost her that night.

Today...

Kara walked into Lena's office with a small grin. "Hey, Lena."

"Hey Kara!" Lena smiled back. 

Kara quickly pulled her smile away and a worried look took over. "I heard what happened last night, are you okay? Are you hurt?" Kara was already shooting questions knowing that she couldn't get answers last night. 

"Yes, but Supergirl might have saved me, but Kara Danvers you are my hero." Lena pulled up and article about her that Kara had wrote. 

Kara blushed having her cheeks turn a rosy red the said, "Oh, really it was nothing. I was just writing the truth." Lena couldn't help, but smile. 

"A very poetic truth." Lena shot back with a giggle as she invited her to come and sit down on the white leather couch. 

As Kara made her way over to the couch, chuckling her small laugh turned into a hard cough and she stopped slowly in her tracks. That didn't go unnoticed by Lena and she asked with worry in her voice, "Kara, are you okay?" 

Kara tried to answer, but her cough got harder and she felt a familiar sensation. The feeling of having all of your strength being pulled away from you. 

Kryptonite. 

It felt like her lungs were on fire, like they here burning from the inside out, and with each breath it just made the fire spark and ignite burning away the skin. The fire closed in on her throat and it sounded like he was dying. 

Kara's legs gave out from underneath her and she put her hand up to her mouth and each time she tried to inhale no air was able to come through and Kara's face started to turn fifty shaded of red. Lena had jumped to her feet, not knowing what to do.

Lena had definitely noticed Kara's hand that gripped the side of the couch, which veins had started to bulge green and lit like a dim light. "Kara, what is happening? Should I call 911?" Lena was starting to panic, but there was on thing that was sticking in the back of her head. That is how Supergirl reacts to Kryptonite. The green veins bulging and weakening stance.

"Call..l... Alex." Kara croaked and she tried her hardest not to lose consciousness, not to collapse to her side and have her heart slowly stop. Lena had no time to question why to call Alex, but she ran over to her smart phone on her desk. 

But once Lena was on the phone, Kara couldn't fight it anymore. Her hand fell back to her lap, the tightening grip to the leather on the couch loosened making the couch phase back in form, her eyes fluttered shut and that is when Kara's shoulder hit the thin carpet. But most importantly her glasses had fallen next to her face.

"She just passed out! What is happening?" Lena panicked into  the phone but after a few more words she was able to hang up with her heart beating in her chest, waiting for Alex, she ran to Kara's side like Supergirl had once done the night before. 

Lena kneeled down and helped Kara's limp body, veins started pulse more and more with green, stretching up her neck and through her face with some coming down her forehead. 

She lightly pulled her from her shoulder and helped Kara onto her back. Lena jumped back and her heart fell to her feet. "Supergirl?"
