I struggled to run out of that warehouse, leaving Kara behind. When she told me that she was going to give her self up, my heart broke. I look over at my sister who hasn't said a word since we left the warehouse. We get to the DEO and I spot Alex immediately. 

I watch the floor as she asks where Kara is.

"She went with them,"I tell her. I finally look up to see a fist coming toward my face. It doesn't hurt though.

"Ow,"Alex yells, holding her hand. "I think your face broke my hand." 

"I'm sorry. It was either that or they would've killed us all to get her." Alex starts crying and walks out of the room. 

"So, who is this?"Winn asks. I look over at my sister who doesn't answer. I can't see her face either because it's hidden by her dark, brown hair. I lead her into the infirmary to get her checked out.

"I'm Mon-El. Your brother,"I tell her. She finally looks up. She looks almost exactly like me except her hair is longer and she has more feminine features.

"You're- you're my twin?" She nods and I take a deep, trembling breath. How did I never know about her.?If I did when I was still on Daxum, I probably would've been a jerk to her. Thanks to Kara though, she taught me to be kind and caring. My heart aches with how much I miss her, knowing that there is a small chance that I will see her again.

"What's your name?" I ask. She just looks down. "I'm going to leave you here with Winn, okay?" She nods. I look at Winn and he gives me a thumbs up.

I leave the room and I head to go find Alex. She's sitting in the workout room crying and holding a picture of Kara.

"Alex?" I call out. She looks at me, her eyes mirroring the pain that I'm also feeling. 

"I'm so sorry,"I tell her. She comes up to me and envelopes me in a hug. I let my tears fall. 

"I don't blame you," she says. "You did what was right. We'll find her and get her back. How's your sister?"

"She hasn't said a word."

"She will. It'll take time though. She's probably been through a lot."

"You're right. I just wish that I had known about her sooner. I would've fought to find her." 

"I know, but you need to focus on her now, not on the past." I nod and she leaves to go talk to J'onn. I look around the room remembering all the times that Kara kicked my but in here. She was so determined to make me a hero, but I was so stubborn. I wanted to show her that no one could change me, especially a Kryptonian. She proved me wrong, of course.

I don't know how I'll continue to be a hero without my hero. Kara. I have to think about how to get her back. How did they even get here? Those Kryptonians came through a portal. An idea pops into my head.

Cisco. He could find a way to take me to Kara. I laugh out loud, happy to have a way to get my wife back.
