The First and Last

Chapter 2

Finn looked for the source of the voice that had just yelled. She grabbed her knife and crawled behind a tree. She heard a few shots fired. "What the hell?" She yelled, crawling from behind the tree. She saw a group of people standing in the distance, guns cocked. She walked towards them, hands above her head. "I mean no harm, jeez!" She exclaimed. The leader of the group, who was a man in a long brown coat, put down his gun. Finn nodded, slowly lowering her hands. "So, who the hell are you guys?" She asked, pointing to the rather odd group. A woman with blonde hair smiled. "We're The Legends!"

Finn sat with the captain, who's name was Rip Hunter, and the blonde chick, who was named Sara Lance. "You're not from this time!" Rip declared. "It's quite obvious, but how did you get here?" Finn shrugged slightly. She recounted the events in her head. "Well, I got jumped by some aliens who almost killed me before I fell into a five month coma. Some strange guy talked to me about punishing me and then, poof, I'm here!" She told. Rip Hunter smiled eagerly. "You're from another earth. Somewhere in the multiverse!" He exclaimed. Sara Lance looked at him strangely. He rolled his eyes. "I'm from the future, we travel on a time ship and you are confused by the fact there's other earths?" She exclaimed. Sara shrugged before getting up. Rip turned to Finn. "Need to get anywhere?" He asked. She nodded vigorously. "Somewhere where I have the best chance of getting home. Probably present day." He explained. Rip nodded and called out to a tall black kid who looked only slightly younger than me. "Jefferson! You know someone we can deliver her to?" He asked. He explained the situation to Jefferson. He nodded, smiling. "I know just the person. My friend, well sort of, Cisco Ramon. If anyone is gonna figure it out, it'd be him." He told Finn.

The time ship amazed Finn. Sure, she'd seen aliens and their ships, along with their weapons. However, time travel was a completely new concept. Rip turned to her. "We'll get you home as soon as possible. That'll probably be tomorrow though, due to the fact that one of the engines got slightly mangled by intense heat." He said. Finn nodded and walked down the hall. Then she saw Sara waving. "Wanna have a drink?" She was asked.

Finn and Sara sat at the table in the middle of the galley. "So, What's your life like?" Sara asked, taking a sip of beer. Finn smiled weakly. "Well, I worked for an agency that finds and most of the time, kills aliens. I worked with Supergirl, who's a hero. I had a girlfriend named Alex. I was gonna propose, but this all happened..." She trialed off. Sara hugged her. "I've had trouble with relationships too!" Sara hiccuped. "Haven't dated someone in ages!" Finn nodded, drinking her beer. She heard about Sara, who was a bisexual ex-assassin who'd been resurrected multiple times. Eventually, they parted ways. Finn walked to the nearest couch and fell asleep there.

Alex was alone, as per usual, drinking a glass of wine. She met a cop, Maggie Sawyer. Not to say that she liked her but Alex was intrigued by her. However, she was cautious. She did not want another tragedy. She swished her wine around in her glass. Maggie was interesting, unlike most she had met. She enjoyed her company. Alex denied all thoughts of having a crush on Maggie. She couldn't, not after Finn died. It felt like betrayal.

A month passed, Alex and Maggie were talking. She said something and Maggie replied. "Oh, I didn't know you were gay." Alex shook her head. "I'm not gay!" She exclaimed impulsively. Maggie nodded. She walked away. She knew Maggie was gay but couldn't be up front about her past feelings and relationship. She smacked her forehead and walked away. She had to say so eventually.

Alex had told Maggie that she might be gay, too afraid to say it confidently. Maggie had been extremely unsure and walked away. Alex also realized she had to tell the person she was closest to, Kara. She had taken Kara for a walk and had just told her about how she'd never felt strong feelings for me, refusing to talk about Finn. Life seemed slightly better.
