"And you are certain this will work?" Alex asked as she lifted the large gun between her hands, testing it's weight checking how it felt to hold, the backpack was a lot lighter than she had expected.

Lena nodded. "Yes, inside the gun are small mirrors that direct lasers from the ring Kara supplied, that is then sent out to hit your target, and sends them straight back to the phantom zone in seconds."

" Excellent. " Alex smiled clutching the gun nearer her looking forward to finally riding every form of a reminder that (Y/n) was ever in the phantom zone, she worried often about how she could truly get better if they still haunted the city

"This would be really scary a scene if I didn't know why you were looking so happy holding that gun right now," Lena said amused.

" Hey, I'm gonna blast those SOB's, I was possessed you know, they stole my girlfriend, possessed me, made me attack my sister with Red K and destroyed the city. "

"Fiance." Lena corrected raising an eyebrow.

" I knew I was going to slip up at some point, don't tell (Y/n) she will never let me forget it. " Alex warned her.

"I don't know, as her maid of honor it's my duty to look out for her if you're just a flyby night then you should tell me now, you and your new lover can get a room," Lena smirked her red lips arching across her face.

Alex frowned for a moment unsure what was happening. "Wait, oh shut up, you forget you don't have any power over me you are dating my sister, I get to make rules too."

The C.E.O narrowed her green eyes. "Hmm...Ok, I'll tell (Y/n) we're both joining the single market again."

Alex smiled smugly, she had more than an idea that (Y/n) would not be a fan of that idea. "I have a feeling she won't be listening."

"That's the thing about her now when it comes to you she really doesn't." Lena laughed.

"Is that bad?"

For a moment Lena remained silent, she stopped laughing and thought, was it bad? Really it had never been, she had (Y/n) living in the same city as her finally after years and she was marrying to live here, how could it possibly be bad? "No, no it's not, I get to keep my best friend with me for always."

"Am I allowed to borrow her on weekends?" Alex asked her eyes wide with mock shock.

Lena shook her head. "We'll see." Lena took a deep breath, recalling the horrible moment she thought she would lose her friend again after she'd broken up with Alex. "She was going to leave you know, she wanted to be far away from here."

"I know." Alex hung her head sadly. "Maybe it would have been better for her if she had done that, she wouldn't have gone through all of this crap, she wouldn't have had to give up the career she loved. "

Lena shook her head. "No, you are wrong, I know (Y/n) the things that happened here have been awful, they've hurt her, they've hurt all of us, but she wouldn't have been better off anywhere else, because only here does she have the people who love her most in the world."

Alex's gloom began to leave her.

"And you know she's jumped into her new career with both feet, she's doing our first Christmas recipe segment right now with Nia, that's why I asked for Kara to be here too, she'd have eaten all that food." Lena laughed. "She isn't here yet I hope she hasn't crashed the photoshoot."

(Y/n) shifted the plate again trying to judge whether the view was right, whether it showed off the contents well enough, or made it all look like crap.
