One would say that once you're out of the field, your senses, instincts, and reflexes would be out of touch. But Bette knew that wasn't true, considering after the military, she had to deal with going on the run, fighting Meta-Humans with a Superhero team, and now fighting aliens with another team.

Her Military training never left, and she was happy about that. Especially how they taught you how to make quick second decisions when under pressure or under fire. One of these decisions was going to the nearest form of cover whatever it was.

And in this scenario, was an abandoned car, and a slab of concrete from one of the buildings. She also counted as many aliens or hostiles as she could, and only got to five. And she was also glad that Kara and Superman got the buildings and sky covered, or else she and Cap would've been pinned down.

And she could see Steve's instincts never left as well. Although she still couldn't figure out the obviously Physics defying logic of his Shield. How it kept coming back to him after he threw it, she can only guess.

She then turned off the safety on the Rifle, and got into a crouching position behind her cover, and lined up her sights against the Chitauri. Steve was nearby, and she could see in her peripheral vision Superman knocking out troops on the buildings. While Kara, she was doing the same, but was also fighting side-by-side with Steve.

"Cap, Supergirl, watch out for the blow-back." She said in her earpiece, knowing they wouldn't be able to hear here with all the noise.

She then started to fire once the weapon got some of her energy. She took out one Chitauri that was coming from her 11'O'Clock, and then 12. She then vaulted over, and somehow it was a good thing, due to an explosion erupting from where she was at.

She wasn't hit by the after-effects, which was good, and then aimed down her sights, and fired at a Chitauri and his two friends. She was lucky enough to get its energy rifle, and once it impacted, a large explosion took them all in the blast.

She admired her work, she didn't take joy in killing, she meant she was admiring how well she could handle her powers now. She heard a shot behind her, and whipped around to find a dead Chitauri behind her, with its smoking wound in its chest, and then heard engines. She looked up to see Tony do a flyby.

"Missed one, Boom-Boom, your welcome. Friends got their backs." He said.

Bette rolled her eyes, and thought of a word to call the billionaire, but decided against it. Although she wasn't sure if she start calling Stark her friend, granted they were now working together, but she didn't know much about the Tech Billionaire except from what she heard.

But considering they would be working together for who knows how long, she would have to get to know him better. But that would have to wait, after they finished repelling this invasion.

Steve threw his shield and Kara punched a Chitauri, and then used her heat vision on another. One managed to get close to her, and it punched her in the back of the head. That ended up breaking it's hand, and Kara knocked it out.

"How are you holding up?" Steve asked.

"Fine, and seeing you in action is pretty cool. You haven't lost your touch." Kara asked.
