"Lex?"

"Yes, Lena, it's me. Lex." Came a calm, but cold voice deep in the darkness.

"I should've known. How did you get out, because I know that Supergirl didn't break you out." Lena growled in defense and clenched up her fists.

"Well you must have too much trust in your friend because that is exactly what happened. The all mighty Supergirl broke me out of jail. Some hero, huh?" Lex was lying, Supergirl never broke him out, but Lena doesn't know that.

"But... she-she wouldn't!" Lena protested stomping her foot into the ground. Lena didn't even know if she believed her own words. "And besides she did it to get her sister!"

"That's the thing, Lena. It wasn't for her 'sister'. Aliens are just evil, especially the capes. Your friend isn't your friend, don't you see? She has lied to you for months as both identities. Doesn't that anger you?" Lex voice was still heartless and frosty and it sounded like he was taunting his little sister.

Lena put her head down and her arms shook a little from anger. How could Lex do this? How could Kara?

"That's right. Your mad, she never cared about you and never did. Don't you want revenge?"

"If you are so smart, if you are powerful then why don't you come out here and show yourself, huh?" Lena shot back and ignored his proposition while raising her voice.

Footsteps started to echo from down the hallway. Lena tensed up and strained her back making her self look stronger. A faint outline of a figure grew becoming more bold. Lex Luthor revealed from the shadows, his bald head glistening from the light that rained in from the cracks and windows.

Lena chuckled a little making it clear she wasn't scared, "Of course you would make an entrance. Your the 'all powerful Lex Luthor who's name spreads fear on its own.' Did you lead me here to try to kill me again like you have tried when I took over the family company and made it so it would symbolize you reign of terror? Thank goodness for Supergirl and Superman. I'm sure that you didn't go through all of the hassle to get out just to kill your sister months later, what do you really want?"

"Well I am here to make you see the truth. You have been blinded by heroes in capes that have tricked the world that they are good. They pretend to be heroic then stab you in the back. You have seen that first hand, so why can't you see it?"

Lex heartlessly stared at Lena who hasn't replied yet. "She doesn't trust you because your a Luthor. And always will be. There's no chance for you. And there is nothing you can do, except revenge. I was always right, do you see that now?"

"Yes..."

Hours later...

Alex sat at a high seat at her island in her kitchen and took another drink of scotch just at Maggie walked in. Sawyer ran over to her and slipped the shot glass out of her girlfriend's hand.

"I know that this hurts, but you can't drink yourself out of it. Do you think that Kara would want that?" Maggie purred to her while rubbing her shoulder.

"If I would have never followed that stupid agent this would have never happened!" She criticized herself and ran her hands up her face and down her short hair.

"It's not your fault, and we can fix it."

"How? J'onn said that heart surgery was too tricky too perform. I might not ever be able to have sister night, or movie night. I might not be able to comfort her or vent. We are nothing without each other." Alex admitted and leaned into Maggie resting her head against her warm shoulder.
