Kara Danvers looked down at her watch on her right wrist after she ordered a cup of her favorite coffee and a cup of her boss's favorite coffee in her favorite coffee shop just a block away from her apartment. 7.55am. She had five minutes to get to work, all the way across town, before her boss. She sighed. 'Easy, I can make that without a problem,' she thought.

In a flash, Kara was at Catco with her boss's coffee still warm. She entered the building and greeted Winn and James before discarding her jacket and bag at her desk and moving into Cat Grant's office. "Miss Grant. Your favorite coffee." She placed the cup down on the desk beside Cat's hand.

"Ah! Keira, I have a special task for you today." Cat said. She pushed her glasses up her nose.

"Kara." Kara muttered under her breath.

"Mr. Kent." Cat called.

Kara's cousin Clark (aka superman) entered Cat's office, however, Kara has to pretend like she only knew him for his reputation as an amazing writer.

"Mr. Kent, this is Kara, She'll be your assistant today." Cat said.

"Nice to meet you Kara, call me Clark." Clark introduced himself. He held his hand out to Lara to shake.

Kara smiled and shook Clark's hand.

"Kara, we are borrowing Mr. Kent from the Daily Planet to do a scoop on Luthor Corp's change into LCorp." Cat informed them. "Now get to work."

Clark and Kara nodded and the two left Cat's office.

"What's really brought you here?" Kara asks as they walk away, they were talking quiet enough for only them to hear.

"I missed my favorite cousin." Clark teased.

Kara rolled her eyes and blushed. "Seriously?"

Clark shook his head. "No. A Luthor is in town, I wanted to make sure you knew what you were up against."

"What am I up against?" The blonde asks, looking at her cousin.

Clark nodded. "Lex nearly killed me." He informed his cousin. "This Luthor could be just as bad."

"Or they could be good." Kara shrugged.

"I doubt that." Clark said. "Let's go before we are late and Miss Grant bites our heads off."

Kara laughed and collected her coffee and jacket.

It wasn't long before they were standing outside of the building that used to be LuthorCorp and was now named LCorp.

"Seems strange that they changed the name of the building." Kara mumbles to herself, forgetting Clark can hear her.

"Strange how?" Clark asked as they crossed the street and entered the building.

"They just shortened the name." Kara responds.

"I guess we'll find out when we speak to the CEO." Clark said.

Nodding her head, Kara looks toward him. "Who is the CEO again?"

"Lena Luthor." Clark said. He pushed his glasses up his nose as they entered the elevator. He pressed the top floor button on the keypad and the doors closed.

"Do you know anything about her?" Kara asks.

"You mean apart from the fact that she's a Luthor?" Clark asked. "'No but the reputation of that family should tell you everything you need to know about her."

"She could be good." Kara mumbles.

"Kara, don't underestimate a Luthor. I did once and it almost got me killed." Clark said as the elevator dinged and the doors opened.
