Strangers

chapter 4:

The past week had been filled with Scott being in and out of the DEO as they wanted to perform more test on him. He was called in once again but this time to test his abilities. They tested his speed, strength, sense, vision, etc. Basically, a physical but moderated for a werewolf. Scott was even thoroughly impressed at some of the abilities he could do. As he learned more about himself and what he was capable of, he was able to be more aware of what he should and should not do. He was getting a handle on his new ego. He could feel his body ache as he took a seat at the bar booth where he agreed to meet Kara. The woman looked up from her phone as he let out a huff of frustration.

"Feeling okay there, hellhound?" Kara jokes as she sees the man shift his weight.

"Very funny." he says as he finally gets situated. "You know the DEO may need to tone down their testing. I'm not used to having to lift things that weigh as much as a car."

"Oh, please," she says, "They have me doing ten times what they have you doing."

"I'm sure they do Miss," he begins, "Supergirl." he finishes with a whisper and a tugging smirk. He had to admit, there was a part of him that knew before she told him. Their physical similarities are well evident but they both were different in their own way. He could tell that being Kara Danvers made her feel more like a normal person than when she puts on the suit. When she's Supergirl, she's taking charge, helping, and running things how she wants.

"Well, now we both technically fit in with this place," she said as she chuckles, referring to the aliens in the bar.

"How do you do it?" he ask, "Being both Kara Danvers and Supergirl?"

"It's just something I've always done." she explained. "Ever since I came to Earth. I've had to deal with being the weird nerdy girl in school, when really I couldn't be myself for a while." she paused, shaking away the old memories, "And now that I can be Supergirl, it's like I can finally let that energy out, you know? I can help people while still being Kara Danvers." she told him.

"Because you realized you wanted to use your powers for something good." he said as he remembered what she told him at the DEO the other day.

"Right." she nodded in agreement. "You obviously don't have too. I just, I don't know, felt it was my calling or something." she finished with a smile.

"Well, you were right. It fits you well." he smiled as he complimented her.

"You know your abilities can be fun too." Kara then said with a beaming grin as she stood up. "C'mon." she said taking his hand and leading him outside.

As they exited the bar, Kara lead them to the side of the bar that had a clear shot down an alleyway. "I'll race you back to my place." she told him, letting go of his hand but their distance was a few feet apart.

Scott chuckled as he looked around the alley for a moment as he stepped closer. "Oh, I don't think you're ready for this." he teased with a grin. "What does the winner get?" he asked as they were now inches apart. As they both beamed of a planted grin on their faces, they slowly got closer. Glancing at each others lips, they could feel the tension rising. "Depends on who wins." Kara then added with a whisper as they were inches apart before vanishing like dust. Scott couldn't help but smirk before chasing after her tracks.

Kara entered her apartment with a smile as her opponent was no where in sight. She left the door open behind her as she waited for Scott. He then arrived in the doorway, as he panted out of breath. "Oh, hey there, slow poke." Kara smiled with a wave from the living room. "Make sure you close the door behind you." she added with a snicker as he entered the apartment.

"Okay. That was so not fair." he complained as he met her by the couch. "You caught me off guard." he added as he was now caught up to breath.

"What? How so?" she asked as if she had no idea what he was talking about.
