"We gathered as many people as we could on the ship, but not everyone was saved." Alex sighed when Kelly rubbed her shoulder and she shook her head. "We didn't do enough."

"Hey, it was the best we could do. Okay, none of us knew what was going on."

"But we should've at least known something considering we have a future-seeing Naltorian on our side."

"Look, I had no dreams," Nia said, sighing as she took off her mask considering her friends were the only one in the room. "Whatever this was... it's not of this world. Or... our world. If anything, I would be able to see what could happen here, but I'm not sure of that."

"Technically, no," Brainy says quietly. "Considering you don't have a breacher's powers, you can only predict of what is to come from our earth."

"And our earth is gone while we're on another earth we didn't even know was here," Kelly murmurs.

"Speaking of not of this world..." Alex worries her bottom lip. "Where's J'onn and Kara?"

"They are on the Waverider," Brainy entails. "I have no idea if they'll need us or not but if they will, they'll hail us down."

"In the meantime." The director's eyes go over to Lena as she stayed leaning against the wall she's been at for the past half hour. "You wanna join in on the group?"

"Willing to save lives? Yes. Friendships?" She shrugs as she shifts her arms a bit from her crossed state. "Not at the moment."

"Well that's progress," she muttered, turning to Kelly. "Make sure the people are calm and that we can provide them with anything possible to help." She nods and hugs her tight before she leaves the room onto the main bay. "Nia, Brainy, give me a minute with Lena." They quietly oblige and leave to a separate room and the redhead turns back to her. "Don't think I didn't see you pressing that watch a thousand times."

"What can I say?" Lena's hair flips back as she looks up at her. "It's an end-of-the-world crisis. We need the best hero out there."

"So explain to me why you were frantically pushing that button with tears in your eyes, visibly shaking?" she asks as she slowly makes her way towards her.

"Alex, the whole world was shaking, everyone was scared and there was dust around from all the debris, you really think—"

"Yes, I do." The two stare at each other, having a nonverbal battle of who was right and who was wrong, not even looking away from when the door opens again.

"Hey, J'onn's asking whether we should land or—" She stops mid-sentence at the two of them. "Uh, Lena?" Her eyes flick up to Nia's worried ones. "You're... glowing."

"Nia, your compliments aren't going to get you anywhere."

Brainy comes behind her and points a finger at the Luthor slowly as he steps closer. "She's not lying." She and Alex look down at herself and both are utterly confused.

"What the hell?"

"Lena, stay calm we'll figure out—" A flash of light blinds them all, forcing them to cover their eyes to avoid blindness and after a few seconds they slowly look back and see that their friend was gone.

Lena uncovers her eyes and looks around on the unfamiliar machine. "Where the hell—"

"Ms. Luthor?" She turns around and first sees the male Kryptonian, Super— Clark Kent. Someone else in a bat costume, Lois Lane, a new blonde, a tall, skinny man in the background in a red suit, and—
