-23 years in the future. 2 days before Keela was thrown back in time-

Elizabeth walked through the halls of the DEO to her lab. She really loved her lab. It was a place where she could just go all techno-geek and no one could give her strange looks about it. It was a place she went to escape a bit. The last time she got to tinker with new tech had been far too long. Ok, maybe it had only been two days, but that was besides the point. She was happy she'd be able to get some time in between missions, but as reached for the door her watch started to vibrate and an alert sounded through it.

That alert only meant one thing, someone was displaced in time. And the sound signified it was family. Her family had a special function that only alerted their collective watches when someone in the family was lost in time. She pulled her hand back to look at her watch and a name showed on the screen 'Keela'. She froze, Keela had been displaced. Wasting no time, she sped to the control room and up to the main control panel. The alert was pulled up to the monitor in the front of the room.

"You got the alert too," A voice said suddenly next to her, Supergirl.

"Yeah. What did she even do? It's not like Keela to be reckless and go to a time without a way back."

A burst of air sounded next to her, "That doesn't make sense. I was just with her when my alert went off."

Elizabeth turned to Lena, "And her watch didn't get the alert?"

"No, it seemed off to me. It could possibly been effected by her messing with it. She's been trying to modify it and make it better. Something about wanting to make the jumps have less side effects."

"She really is your child. Always trying to make the best better," Kara sent her wife a wink.

Lena rolled her eyes, "Which is why I trusted her to make the modifications."

Elizabeth pulled up the specs of the signal to look at the patterns and she noticed why it wasn't making sense, "She hasn't been displaced yet. And look at the signal patterns. It has interference. My guess is that whatever is causing the interference made it undershoot the time it needed to be sent to. If that's the case, what do we do?"

Kara stepped forward, "When and where is the signal being sent from?"

The Elizabeth went to work on the time and location. And she heard two familiar heartbeats approaching fast. It was her mom and sister. Finally she pulled up the information she needed and they all looked up to see. 'National City-March 22nd, 2019'

"At least she's in familiar territory," the young agent says.

"But what would cause the interfer- oh no. If she's been in the DEO at that time, that probably means she's at least met Alex," Kara adds.

"You don't think she'd say anything, do you," Sam said as she walked up to her younger daughter.
