Another World - Clexa/Supercorp

Arkadia

Lena

Getting a nod from Lexa to speak, Lena knew this had to be the condensed version. "We need your help returning to our Earth." Nothing, you could hear a pin drop in the room.

"Yeah, and you can solve my leg while you're at it." Raven was entirely joking, but Lena saw the look on Kara's face. She just took the joke seriously.

"Actually, I think we can." Again, silence. At this rate the shock factor in the room would make it take hours to get through everything before they could even hope to start on a way home.

"And exactly how do you figure that, Sunshine?" Lena liked the girl already, barely here a minute and she had pegged Kara instantly.

"A friend of mine, she created a device that connected nerves in the spine after paralysis. It's high-tech, but it works. She said she was going to start work on some more. I'm more than sure we can get you one when we have a way back home." Lena hadn't seen Kara this serious, except when she was Supergirl. Kara never made promises this big if she couldn't follow through.

"Okay, woman I've never seen before. If you can tell me exactly what's wrong with me, I'll agree to help." Lena saw the way Raven was holding herself. She had seen it in the old farts on the L-Corp board enough to know Raven had thought she'd already won. Lena knew Kara had already x-rayed the girl once she saw the brace on her leg.

"You have a bullet lodged in your lower spine. It's buried in the bone, impossible to remove without causing complete paralysis of both legs. Based on the brace around your leg I'd guess you already have partial numbness to about mid-thigh if you can stand on it and move it as you were on your way here, based on the sounds your brace was making and the time between your steps. Hopefully, if all goes to plan, you shouldn't have to worry about how far away meetings are from the garage."

Absolute silence. Not only had Kara just revealed her powers to two more people, she had revealed her super hearing to everyone.

"H-How?" Raven was in awe of the blonde ray of sunshine in front of her. Also, somewhat scared.

"Like we said, we need help getting back to our Earth. An experiment of mine went wrong. Apparently, trying to prove the multiverse theory can get you stranded on another Earth." Lena jumped in, saving Kara from having to talk again. For someone who keeps her identity a tightly kept secret on their Earth, she is being very loose lipped on this one.

"I just have one question before we start," When no one objected to Raven, she continued, "Anyone in here on your Earth too?" Lena had expected the question sooner or later and glanced at Anya before looking back at Raven. The meaning all to clear to those in the room. Anya tilted her head at the new information. "Cheekbones, a lovely surprise. How do you know her on your Earth?"

Lena wished the floor would open and swallow her as everyone looked at her. Not even Kara knew this part to her and Roulette's history. "Um... she, um-we, we dated for a while, a couple of years ago, when I was back in college." Lena didn't want to look around the room, but she couldn't help it. Raven looked impressed, Clarke and Lexa looked as though they were trying to see it, Anya looked to be checking Lena out, and Kara. Kara was the picture of jealousy.

"Nice. Now, anything else important we should know before I lead the two newbies to my lab?" Raven was a dog with a bone, she wanted to start this project now, Lena knew the spark in her eyes well. If only they could leave now, but she knew they needed to hear if their arrival would cause any major problems for Lexa.

"Actually, I'd like to hear what Heda needs to speak with Abi about. Maybe Kara or I can help." Abi seemed ready to object, Kara could see where Lena was going with this, and Clarke and Lexa seemed open to the idea. "Feel like you can wait to start on that project, Raven?" Raven's answering nod was accompanied by her walking over to a chair to rest her leg.
