     "Are you F-ing stupid?!" Swanwick slams the car door, making his way towards Freedom and Superman.

     "That's one of your surveillance drones," Superman points out.

     "That's a twelve million dollar piece of hardware!"

      "It was," Sarah responds with a shrug.

Swanwick turns his attention towards her.

     "I know you're trying to find out where I hang my cape, you won't," Superman say sternly.

     "You didn't have to do that, I already know who you two are,"

Clark's eyes widen.

     "He lying,"

The thought enters Swanwick's mind.

     "I'm not lying Sarah,"

"Did you just-?"

     "You're a telepath," She realises.

Clark crosses his arms. All this became confusing to him.

Swanwick nodded his head at Sarah's statement, "You were easy to read, your thoughts came to me as if we were speaking to each other. The Kryptonian? Not so much,"

"Wanda,"

Sarah thought sadly, images of the experimentation Wanda and Sarah went through crossed the Martian's mind.

     "I was born with my powers, they weren't given to me," He explains.

Sarah looks at him sternly,"Stop reading my mind, you might see something you don't like,"

The Martian sighs, "I already have," He begins remembering what he saw when they met. It was all she was thinking about even if she was trying to bury it deep, "The way you came here intrigued the most, Ms. Rogers. The theory of the Multiverse was almost thought to be that, a theory, but you being here shines new light on the subject. Your thoughts have an entirely different universe then the one we know, My people almost thought it was relatively impossible, but here. You. are." He finishes slowly.

Clark narrows his eyes, "Multiverse? You're people?" he questions.

     "Yes. I'm from Mars, last of my kind," He says sadly, trying to once again suppress the final moments on his planet.

Sarah laughs at the idea, "A martian?"

     "But you look human," Superman questions. This was all new to Clark, He couldn't fathom someone else experiencing the same thing as him.

     "I took this form based on earth's fears of the unknown, I couldn't exactly walk around looking like this..."

Sarah looks at the woman in the car, "What about the woman?" She asks.

     "She sees what I want her to see,"

     "Telepath, Shape-shifting, master illusionist, what else can you do?"

     "May I, Superman?" Swanwick gestures towards his two fingers, He begins to outstretch towards him.

Superman thought this as something harmless, simply nodding his head in agreement. When the martian's fingers touched Superman's temple he was bombarded with images, memories that weren't his own.

    "Hail Hydra," The words left Sarah's lips, her voice darkened with no sound of emotion.

Bang.

The sound of a gun goes off. Sarah's finger was still lingering on the trigger. There was no remorse what-so-ever. Instead she simply walks away.

"No!" She begs. "Please don't make me forget him, I love him," The darkly lit room lightens thanks to the machine that's about to take her memories away.

     "You remember too much, You must forget," Baron Von Strucker leans into her.

     "I love him,"

     "Love is weakness, You're too important to be entrapped by something as useless as love,"

A piercing, but muffled scream enters Clark's ears.


    "How many times did we fall in love?"

     "Too many times to count,"


Sarah shields a young man and boy, about ready to teleport them away when this sharp pain hits her chest, Clark could feel it also. He watches through her eyes facing a man wearing a similar colored suit as she wears now.

     "I'm faster," He says before collapsing, blood seeping through multiple bullet holes.

     "Nooooo," She cries into pietro's chest,

The image changes, Clark now sees a robot slumped against a wall, a woman knees next to it, "You wanna know how it felt?"

     "It felt like that,"


     "Who died?"

     "My mother," Sarah says sadly,


     "Oh, I'm sorry," Sarah says after bumping into someone, she was leaving the church ready to meet up with Sam and Sharron. She didn't even look up, but Clark could clearly see that the person she bumped into was an old man.

     "It's alright," The man says with a smile, Sarah didn't even bother looking up.

     "I have to do something,"

The thought crosses Sarah's mind as she looks back and forth between her friends and Thanos. Clark recognises that her thoughts are showing that she is willing to sacrifice Herself for her Friends and family.

Clarks gasps when the martin removes his fingers from his temple, "What was that?"

     "Sarah's memories. I'm sorry, but it was easier to show you that way. She wanted to tell you a few things, but didn't know how, without you thinking she is crazy,"

     "A warning next time, that wasn't pleasent," Superman says.

Sarah narrows her eyes, "Strange how quick some aliens become friends," They turn to her.

      "You're including yourself?"

Sarah shrugs her shoulders, letting out a sigh, "This is strange to even say, but this isn't 'my' earth, according to him, I don't exist here. I have no identity," Sarah trails on.

      "I can help you with that," Swanwick says. In all honesty he was happy to finally disclose his true identiy to someone, especially a person who's been through similar experiences.

With the existence of aliens, now released to the public, maybe one day J'onn can also reveal himself to the world.
