I woke up to the sound of the alarm. I had a sore face from sleeping with my head on the table. I sighted deeply before looking at the screen. Surprisingly, there was someone standing in the middle of the main hall. I recognized the colors all to well. Supergirl. How did she get in? I have highly equipped guards outside. I looked around uncomfortably. What am i going to do? She has seen al my work now. I thought about running, but i knew that she could somehow trace this back to me and then this would all be for nothing. I looked at the gun laying on the table. It could stop her. It could end all of this. I took a deep breath. This was my chance. I could hit her before she even saw my face. I could get away with this. It's not what i ever wanted, but she had lost her way. I saw it that night. In her eyes. I couldn't be weak this time, i couldn't let my personal feelings get in the way of doing what is right this time. I wouldn't make the same mistake as i did with him. I wish it didn't have to come to killing her, but no one would ever believe me. Besides, no prison could hold her. I stood up slowly and took the gun. Today everything is going to change.

I walked towards the main hall. I opened the door slowly, trying to hide my presence from her. I slowly pointed my gun at her. My hands were trembling. I saw her look up from what she was doing. She knows i'm here. I put my finger on the trigger. I heard my heartbeat in my ears. Sweat was dripping from my forehead. It was now or never. Before she could turn around i pulled the trigger.

The door made a loud noise when i opened it. Inside was a white hallway. I hesitated. I wasn't sure if i really wanted to find out what was inside this building. The things that they said about him scared me. I didn't recognize him in what they made him out to be. He had always been so kind. I couldn't believe that he could hurt all those people. Before i didn't want to believe it. I ignored everything they said about him for a while now. But i couldn't get around it anymore. I think i have known all along that it was true, but i just wanted him to stay that sweet boy i had met all those years ago.

I looked outside one more time before going in. I entered a never ending hallway. It was like a maze down here. Luckily i had found blueprints that i could use a map. Even with directions it was hard to find anything in here. It had taken me at least an hour before i found the door to the main hall. This building was definitely build to hide things. I opened the door.

In the main hall, i saw him. He was working on one of his weapons. The entire main hall was full with equipment, which i couldn't believe would do any good. He didn't even hear me come in. He looked horrible. It looked like he hadn't slept in days or showered. I watched him for a few minutes closely.

"It is all true." I said. He looked up from his table, startled. "You scared me sister." He said. "How could you do this?!" I said. He looked at me confused. "Tell me it wasn't you." I said. "Tell me you didn't kill all those people!" I screamed. His expression changed. "I only did what was necessary." He said. "They were innocent! Children!" I screamed. "Necessary sacrifices." he said. I laughed. "You're mad." I said. "You don't understand. I am saving the world." He said. How could he actually believe that killing all those people was saving the world. "I have to stop him before it is too late. They will take over the earth! Can't you see this is the beginning of the apocalypse!" He screamed. No. I couldn't. "They are not different than us." I said. His eyes were full of hatred. He picked up his gun. "You can't stop me." He said. Something about him scared me. I knew deep down that the things they said on the news were true, but i never imagined this. I was scared of him, scared he would hurt me too. I took a step back. "Let's just think about this okay. I know this isn't you." I said. "This is for the greater good." He said. I shook me head. He looked lost. This was no longer my brother. I had to warn them. I slowly grabbed my phone. "Won't let you do this." I said. He laughed. "I don't take orders from anyone. Especially not women." He said with disdain. I made his way the door. I quickly stood before him. "No!" I screamed. He pushed me away violently. I fell with my head on the ground. Everything went black for a second.
