Here we go, guys. :) Silver Kryptonite!Kara and the first part of the Cadmus battle, though it's not much of a first part. XD I'm currently working on the next chapter, which has the rest of the Cadmus fight, and I'm hoping to get that up before I go to bed.

I hope everyone enjoys!

Oliver had gotten a taste of what Kara's super strength was when she had punched him after her nightmare. He was not prepared for her to crash through the wall, grab him by his suit jacket, and carry him out into the night. "Oliver!" he heard Dig shout.

Kara slugged him with a right hook that had him going head over heels, smashing onto a nearby roof. He groaned in pain, stumbling and getting to his feet, turning to see Kara land on the far side of the roof, her fingers curling into fists. That prompted him to jump to his feet, holding up his hands. "Kara, I'm not him," he tried to reach her, eyes wide. "I swear I'm not!"

"I don't know how you got here," Kara growled, her eyes starting to glow again, making Oliver look around for a place to hide. "But get the hell off my Earth!"

A sonic scream hit her, and Kara went flying. Oliver spun around to see Slade and Dinah race across the roof, Thea and Nyssa swinging up a few moments later. "How many types of that crap are there?" Slade growled, watching Kara stagger.

"Never mind that, how do we deal with her?" Dinah nodded to Kara.

"With an overwhelming amount of backup," Oliver grimaced. "Remember the Dominators?"

"None of us could beat her," Thea nodded miserably.

"She's back," Nyssa warned.

"Get away from him," Kara warned, holding her hand to one ear, pointing at Oliver with the other. "Slade, Thea, Nyssa, Dinah, get away!"

That made all five vigilantes blink. "It's just you?" Thea asked her brother in surprise.

"Guess so," he said, sounding just as confused.

Felicity's computer chirped, and her jaw dropped. "Oh, my God."

"What?" Quentin turned around.

"Booyah!" she threw her hands up in the air triumphantly. "Who's the best hacker in two universes, people?" She pointed at her screen. "I got them!"

"You found them?" Alex asked hopefully.

"Cadmus is hiding right in the center of the city," Felicity said confidently, a wide grin on her face.

"Send us the coordinates," J'onn ordered.

"On it," Winn tapped on his tablet.

Alex pulled out her phone, dialing rapidly as Maggie put the van in drive. "Let's get the others," she said.

"Yeah," Alex nodded absently. She ignored her fiancée's confused look, instead focusing on the number she was calling. She saw Dig, Rene, Malcolm, and Laurel hurry towards the van, Laurel still looking shaky on her feet, but when she heard the line pick up, she straightened. "We've got a problem," was all she said.

Everyone on the rooftop paused when they heard the announcement, and Oliver turned. "Go," he said.

"Oliver!" Dinah protested, even Nyssa looking at him as if he were insane.

"She recognizes you, she doesn't see me," Oliver shook his head. "The more to deal with Cadmus, the better."
