Kara and Lena Danvers have been happily married for fifteen years; living in the suburbs with their teenage daughter, Eliza. The only problem is that Kara is not the boring technology sales rep her family thinks she is, but rather a secret agent, especially talented in espionage, weaponry, and hand-to-hand combat. Just as she starts to realize her neglectful ways have her on the verge of losing her stifled wife and disgruntled daughter, the hunt for a dangerous terrorist reaches its boiling point. Translations written: (underlined) Author's Note: This is an AU rewrite of James Cameron's True Lies 1994 Screenplay. The original was full of 90s toxic masculinity and stereotypes, so some of the behavior is out of character, but through all the angst and (quite ridiculous) action, lessons are learned and a happy ending comes together. Edits are ongoing, but the story itself is complete. Other Notes: The movie's lead bad guy was a Syrian extremist, but I wanted to use characters from Season 6, so I went with an ancient cult out of South America instead. Also, I always think of National City as being in California, usually around San Francisco whereas most of this movie was based between DC and the Florida Keys... So, please pretend there's a Florida Keys-esque chain of islands off the coast of Southern California connected by bridges. Okay? Thank you!

Lena was devastated. She had lost the one chance she had of finding Kara in the Phantom Zone when Alex tore the device from her hands. She wasn't angry at Alex, honestly. Taking it the way she did protected her from making that decision on her own. But sitting here in the Fortress working on the projector, it was hard for her not to lose hope. Usually, Lena was able to keep her feelings in check or at least control herself despite her emotions. But as she sat in the spot where she'd lost Kara - scotch in one hand and the projector in the other - lost control of herself and tossed the projector down before kicking it across the room, sending her to the phantom zone. Will Lena be able to find Kara? Will they EVER get home? And if they do, will things EVER be the same? *********** This fic was inspired by the amazing artwork provided by ChristyKia.
