Karamel- Leave You, Save You

Kara's POV

The bag was whipped off my head and I was in the fighting cage. I was on my hands and knees, trying to get up. I heard cheers all around, but the harsh light streaming into the cage blinded me, and I could only see darkness beyond the wiring. Mr. Silver stood right at the outside edge of the cage so I could see him. I finally stood myself up, searing pain in my stomach.

"Just so you know," He smirked. "All the bets are against you now."

He walked away, the darkness engulfing him. I heard the sounds of gears turning, the door to the fighting cage opening and out walked the Kryptonian beast. My heart beat fast, palms sweaty. I knew this was it. I was so weak, I was about to be tossed around like a dog toy.

A bell chimed and the beast started charging at me. I held my arms up in defense, but it grabbed me by the torso and threw me to the other side of the cage. I heard ringing in my ears, blood spreading down the side of my head. I struggled to get up, my weak arms not being able to get myself up. The beast walked over to me slowly. He towered over me. I could see his sharp teeth as he snarled through my blurred vision.

He grabbed me by the neck and held me over his head. My head felt lighter, throbbing, the distant sounds of the crowds cheering. He growled at me and threw me on the ground and everything went black. 

Mon-el's POV

I hobbled down Kara's apartment building's haul with arms full of Chinese takeout. As I approached her door I tried to balance everything on one arm and I managed to open her door.

"Hey Kara I'm back," I said as I turned around struggling to lock the door. "Sorry it took so long, there was a huge line at the restaurant" I turned back and there was no one there. "Kara?" 

I set down the food on the counter. She was absolutely nowhere in the apartment. No no no I thought to myself. This can not be happening again.

I looked at the floor and I found a flower from the vase and a recording device on the ground. I crouched down and picked them up, turning my back to the door. What could have happened to her?

As I almost pressed the play button I heard the door swing open. I turned around in a jolt and what I saw was horrible.

A man in a black suit stood next to another man that I could only describe as a personal guard. The guard was holding Kara by the back of her sweater, propping her up. Her face was bloodied, black and blue. She looked beat up, blood down the side of her head. 

"Kara!" I yelled out starting to charge at the two men, but the man in black got a gun out, holding it up to her head. He cocked the gun.

"Now wait for a second mister, if you come any closer I'll have to kill her," He said still holding the gun up. Kara barely responded. She didn't seem to be fully conscious. "She was just out repaying a debt she owed to me, calm down." He chuckled. "When she wakes up just let her know that I got 2 million dollars because of her today. She did good."

He smiled and removed the gun from her head. The guard shoved her forward and let go. She started falling but I super sped toward her and caught her before she hit the ground. "Hey Kara it's me," I said to her as I gently laid her down on the ground. "I'll be right back, ok?"

I got up and sped toward the hall looking for the two men, but they were gone. Nowhere to be found. It wasn't worth it to try and find them. I need to be with Kara.

I went back into the apartment and knelt down to pick her up. I gently placed her on the couch, she started to gain conciseness. 

"No, no," She whispered to herself.

"Kara it's okay, he's gone."

"No--" She whispered again. "no more, please no more."

She started shifting around, getting fidgety. I reached for her hand but she yanked it away. "No! Stop it please stop!"

"Kara, it's me, it's Mon-el. You're at home you're in your loft," I tried to settle her down placing my hand on her cheek. She reached up and put her hand on top of mine.

"It was Silver," She said weakly, "Mr. Silver. I had to go, I had to fight, he made me fight."

"Kara, we need to get you to the DEO."

"No! You can't!" She had a sudden burst of energy, tears started forming in her eyes. "They can't know, Alex can't know!"

"You are severely injured and powerless, you need proper medical attention, you need to tell them."

She paused for a moment trying to stop the tears from falling. She nodded. I leaned in and kissed her forehead. I tried picking her up and she winced in pain. I hated that she was hurting, I hated that I had messed up and left her, again. But now she would get the help she needed.

Hey there! I may end this soon because I have a BUNCH of other ideas for stories. I think next I want to do a one-shots series of stories based on their insta photos, or maybe just different versions of the proposal (which I am very excited about!!!!). Let me know what you would rather read because I'm trying to decide. Anyway, thanks for reading!!!
