Kara, J'onn, and Winn brought Mon-El back to the DEO for further inspection.
"I'm so happy to see you." Said Kara, tears streaming down her face. "So am I." Said Mon-El, his eyes also glistening with a tear or two. Kara smiled at him and said, "There's something that I have to tell you later, but right now I think you should get some rest." Mon-El replied, "No, you can tell me now, it's okay." "Not now, sleep." Kara insisted. She kissed Mon-El on the forehead and left the room. Alex, who was standing over Winn while he was researching on his computer, saw Kara walk back into the main room and said, "How is he?" "He's great." Kara said smiling from ear to ear. "I'm so happy he's back. I just- I can't believe it." She began to breakdown in happy tears. Alex ran over to Kara and gave her a huge hug. "Call me with any updates. James needs me at CatCo." Kara said to Alex and Winn. "Of course we will." Alex said. Winn cut in, "Tell James hi for me!" "I will!" Yelled Kara as she flew off of the DEO balcony.

"Hey Kara, how's Mon-El?" James asked Kara as she flew in through the window into the boss's office. "He's amazing." She said still smiling. "Good." Replied James as he was going through the layouts for the next issue. "Do you need any help with that? What did you call me in for?" Kara asked. "I just wanted to ask how things were going with Mon-El. I don't get to talk to you very much." James replied. "You could just call." Kara quickly retorted. "Yeah, well you can't just hang up this way." James said. "I don't do that." Kara said defensively. "No, but our conversations tend to be cut a bit short because Luna's crying or something is going on that you need to take care of." Said James. "That's fair." Said Kara. She laughed at James' remark.

Although, it was true. Their conversations really were cut short a lot. So she and James talked for about ten more minutes about how Luna was starting to talk in near full sentences sometimes. Winn is a large influence, seeing as most of her sentences are very sarcastic ones. But, Kara had to go and pick Luna up because apparently Winn actually needed to get something done today. So, she left CatCo and spent the rest of the day hanging out with Luna waiting for an update on Mon-El. Finally, Alex called Kara at around 8:30 that night. Mon-El wanted to talk to Kara. Which was good since she had to tell him something too.

Kara got to the DEO. Alex offered to babysit, so she was at Kara's loft with Luna. Kara walked out onto the balcony. Mon-El was standing there, staring off into space. She slowly walked up next to him, "Hi." She said tapping him on the shoulder. He turned and smiled at her, "Hi. Um." "What is it?" Kara asked nervously. "Well, I uh- I have to tell you something." "Just tell me." Kara said looking deeply into his eyes.

All of a sudden, a woman with long dark curls walked into the doorway, "Mon-El!" She said staring longingly at him. Mon-El deeply exhaled and ran over to her, he put his hands around her pulling her into a kiss. Kara's heart dropped right out of her chest. He was kissing a woman, but it wasn't her. What was she going to tell her daughter? More importantly, what was she going to tell Mon-El? Mon-El pulled out of the kiss and looked at Kara embarrassed. He scratched his head and looked from Kara to the other girl and back to Kara. "Kara, this is Imra Ardeen. My wife." Wife? He has a wife?! That's impossible. Well, obviously it isn't, but did he really move on that quickly?

The next morning Mon-El knocked on Kara's door. "What did you have to tell me?" He asked. "Kara, whatever it is, it's okay, you can tell me. Please." Kara looked at the floor. "Kara?" Kara looked up at Mon-El with tears in her eyes again. But they were no longer tears of joy, but tears of severe heartbreak and pain. "We have a daughter. Her name's Luna." Mon-El stared at Kara for a moment, then stared at the ground. He wiped his hand over his mouth. "I was afraid to tell you last night after- after I met your w-w-wife." Kara said. Her words coming out in broken bits. Mon-El hugged her closely and said, "Never be afraid to tell me something this important. Where is she?" He said wiping Kara's tears off of her face." Kara lead Mon-El into Luna's room. Mon-El knelt down next to his little girl and looked into her bright blue eyes, "Comets." Kara's heart was restored with that word alone. She stood in the doorway and watched him play with her. This is what she'd pictured in her mind since the moment she found out that she was pregnant. She just wanted her daughter to have a dad. And now her dad is here and he's playing with her and making her giggle. Kara couldn't help but smile. He looked at Luna and said, "You're beautiful, just like your mommy." Kara walked up behind Mon-El and hugged him around his neck. She kissed him on the cheek. "What are you going to tell Imra?" Kara asked. "I'm not sure yet."

The next day at the DEO Imra walked in. Kara, Alex, Winn, J'onn, Clark, Brainy and Luna were all sitting on the benches on the other side of the room. Imra asked, "Mon-El, you wanted to speak with me?" "Yeah, um..." No one had noticed that little Luna had hopped off of the couch and had come running towards Mon-El yelling, "Dadda! Dadda!" Mon-El pried her off of his leg and picked her up. Imra glared at him. Everyone else in the room was trying their best not to laugh. "I need to talk to you. Now." Said Imra sternly. Kara walked over to Mon-El and took Luna from him. She mouthed "sorry" as she backed away.

Imra shut the door to the next room, turned to Mon-El and said, "You have a daughter?!" "You say that as if I've magically known all along." Said Mon-El. "Well have you?" Asked Imra. "No, I found out yesterday." He said. "Then why didn't you tell me yesterday?" She asked. "I didn't know how to tell you." "Tell me what, Mon-El?" "I'm staying with them, Imra. Even if and when you find a way back, I'm staying here." "And you should." Imra replied. Mon-El was no longer looking Imra in the eyes. "What is it?" She asked. "I- I just don't want to hurt anyone." He said. "They're more important, Mon-El. Stay with your family. Your daughter needs her father." "Thank you, Imra." "Of course." She walked out of the room.

That evening, Mon-El flew to Kara's apartment. He knocked on her door. Kara opened it, "Heyyy." "Hi." "Come on in." Said Kara motioning him inside. Luna was playing with her blocks on the floor. "So, um. I ended things with Imra after you guys left today." "You did?" Said Kara happily. "Of course I did. You guys are the most important thing in the entire galaxy to me." He said. Kara bit her bottom lip, she smiled and leapt into his arms and kissed him passionately. Mon-El noticed his daughter beaming up at them. "Maybe not in front of the baby." He said. Kara laughed and fell into Mon-El's chest. "Wanna order a pizza?" He asked. "Definitely." Said Kara. "I'm always hungry." Several minutes later they sat down to dinner. "Thanks for ordering the pizza, babe." Said Mon-El. He looked over to see his daughter whose face was covered in pizza sauce. "Is yours good, too?" She giggled and shoved another tiny piece into her mouth. And the three of them spent the rest of the night together.
