L-Corp, National City

Lena found herself staring at the Quantum Tower that arose from the ground hours ago, the only thing that manages to stray her attention away from it was someone entering her office.

As Alex steps through the double doors, an earthquake rattles L-Corp, however, Alex is still able to make her way towards Lena.

Lena faces Alex, her arms crossed, "Are you here to arrest me during the apocalypse? or to try and kill me because you weren't successful the other day?" she questions.

"I wasn't trying to hurt you, Lena," She says softly, I was trying to stop you from using Myriad.

"Right," Lena responds sarcastically, "Is that why you had a claymore satellite aimed at me?...And I didn't use Myriad, that was Eve Tessmacher,"

"You and I both know that that isn't true. The reason the sky is red, and the planet feels like it's falling apart is because it is, There is an anti-matter wave that is tearing through the universe right now," She begins to explain, "-and it will destroy Earth if Kara and the other heroes don't stop it. Now, I am working with J'onn to hedge our bets and mount an evacuation, but in order to do that...we need your help," Alex takes a deep breath in, "Look, I am sorry that I lied to you and not just me, and not just Kara...it was all of us. J'onn and Brainy and Nia.

Lena scuffs, Rolling her eyes, "You know, you actually had me believe that you hated Supergirl,"

"I wasn't pretending about that and that is a... long story," Alex steps closer, "Listen, I... I know that you feel burned by us and that there is nothing that I can say in this moment that is
going to change that, but if you could please just put your feelings aside...J'onn and I really, 'really', need your help," She says desperately.

silence encased the room, Alex stared pleadingly at Lena, while Lena could only muster enough strength to stand and face Alex.

"I don't want your apology, Alex 'cause you will never again have my friendship or my trust. I have learned my lesson from all of you, but if the world is at stake, then, of course, I'll help. It is hubris of you to think that I wouldn't, but then, you've made it perfectly clear how little you've thought of me these last few years, so..." Staring Alex down, "what do you need me to do?" Lena questions.

EARTH-38
QUANTUM TOWER, NATIONAL CITY

Serval heroes walk towards the Quantum tower, the flash, Freedom, Supergirl, Superman, the Atom, and Batwoman.

"Whatever is inside there, it's working. The anti-matter wave has stopped, and it's slowly dissipating," Atom informs the group.

"How do we protect that thing from an enemy we know nothing about, but we know it is coming?"

"There's only one thing we can do," Sarah says.

"We head inside..." Each and everyone one of the heroes turns around facing the voice, finding Oliver and Mia, walking towards them, "stake out strategic positions. If we're fortified, we control the battle,"

Once again, an Earthquake hits National City,  this one seeming stronger than the last. Ray looks down to his suits systems, Earthquake that magnitude could overwhelm the entire coast," he says.
