《New Earth: Supergirl》Chapter 3

"So, how'd it go?' Alex asked Kara that night when she returned home from her interview with Lena.
"It turns out that Lex made a deal with Novu to make sure that Lena survived Crisis, so she has her memories intact." Kara said.
"So Lena knows you're Supergirl and she hates you again?" Alex asked.
"Yes, but she doesn't hate anymore." Kara said.
"How'd you pull that off?" Alex asked.
"I called her out on her hypocrisy. How she has kept countless other secrets from me and they usually ended creating much larger problems then me keeping my identity secret from her ever did." Kara said and Alex smiled.
"So, you actually called her out." Alex said.
"New earth should mean a clean slate for us all. Lena even agreed to help us wipe Lex's memories of my identity and the old earth and help us expose him as the psychopath he really is." Kara said.
"She's trying to make amends." Alex said.
"Well, she also knows that she'll have to deal with you soon, so, there's that." Kara said and Alex chuckled.
"I'm going to enjoy that." Alex said.
"I know. That was a part of why I let her off the hook so quickly. I thought I'd let you do that." Kara said.
"I love you sis." Alex said and Kara smiled.
"I know. Now tomorrow, I'm planning on heading to Central City to have Cisco make my sit and also to offer Iris a job for my paper." Kara said.
"Can you really afford to take on another employee in another city nonetheless?" Alex asked.
"The perks of living in the 21st century is that we have online forums. My paper is mostly online, which means that Iris can just work on the site from home until I'm able to open up a second office. Which hopefully shouldn't be too much longer, since Lena said there's a chance she'll provide financial backing." Kara said.
"Okay, I just wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting yourself into. Also, I can't wait to see what Cisco comes up with for your suit." Alex said.

"Neither can I." Kara said, right as there was a knock on her door.
"Who's that?" Alex asked.
"No clue." Kara said as she used her x-ray vision to check to see who was on the other side of it and she grinned when she saw who it was.
"It's fine." Kara said as she got up and opened the door to welcome Nia Nal into it.
"Hey, it's so good to see you again." Kara said as she hugged Nia.
"You too." Nia agreed as Alex got up and hugged her.
"Hey, I didn't know J'onn restored your memories?" Alex said.
"He did it before he left National City, only reason I wasn't here sooner is because I needed to start planning a trip home to Parthas." Nia said.
"Why?" Alex asked.
"Because I want to get my mother's suit, since that was where mine came from. It has sentimental value." Nia said.
"I'll fly you out there tomorrow, since I need to talk to Clark about something and we can both go to Central City, since I want to this guy, Cisco Ramon, he's one of the best suit makers in the whole multiverse make mine and I bet he can upgrade yours to do some cool things too." Kara said.
"Sounds perfect." Nia said with a smile.
"Now, how about you join us." Alex offered.
"No, I don't wanna crash your sister night." Nia said.
"I hate to tell you this, but you kind of already did." Alex said.
"She's right. Besides, it can just be girls night for the Superfriends." Kara offered and Nia nodded.
"Okay then. Also, Kara, I could use a new job and I would definitely prefer having you as my boss than Andrea." Nia said.
"You're hired." Kara said immediately and Nia smiled.
"Thank you." Nia said and Kara smiled as she showed Nia inside.
The next day, Kara flew Nia out to Parthas before heading out towards Metropolis.
"Nia, what a wonderful surprise." Isabel Nal said with a smile as she hugged her younger daughter.
"Mom, it's good to see you." Nia said, happy to see that her mom was still alive and hopefully, she'd stay that way this time around.

"So, what brings you back to Parthas so soon?" Isabal asked.
"Mom, I think I'm the one who inherited your powers." Nia said.
"Are you sure?" Isabal asked.
"I'm positive. I've been dreaming about things that have actually happened, recently, this started." Nia said as she produced a smart burst of dream force energy.
"Nia, this is incredible. I'm so proud of you." Isabal said.
"But what about Maeve? She's spent her whole life believing that she'd be the one to inherit these powers, but I did instead. How is that even possible?" Nia asked.
"I don't know Nia, but you now have a destiny far greater than just being a reporter." Isabel said.
"I'm here because I could use your help learning to control these powers so that I can use them to help people the same way grandma did on Naltor." Nia said and Isabel smiled.
"Come with me Nia. I'll begin your training. How long are you in town for?" Isabel asked with a proud smile as she led her daughter inside.
"Just until my friend picks me up on her way back to National City from Metropolis." Nia said.
"Kind of out of the way?" Isabel said.
"She insisted." Nia said and Isabel nodded as they walked upstairs.
When Kara arrived in Metropolis, she found Clark waiting for her.
"Kara, I was wondering when you'd be paying us a visit after J'onn came by." Clark said with a smile as he hugged her.
"So, you remember everything?" Kara asked.
"Yeah, I do. Which is why I'm glad you're here, since you've saved me a phone call." Clark said.
"What do you mean?" Kara asked.
"I asked Lois to marry me again, since we're no longer married in this reality." Clark said and Kara smiled.
"I guess that means we better start looking for Argo so you two have a place to honeymoon." Kara said and Clark smiled.
"Yeah, but what about you? Should I be expecting you to bring a plus one to the wedding?" Clark asked.
"I'm not sure. I guess it'll really just depend on how things play out." Kara said.
"You'll find your Lois someday Kara." Clark said.
"Thanks, though it will definitely be a man since I am not gay." Kara said and Clark smiled.
"I know, but you also know I wouldn't care if you were right?" Clark asked.
"Of course I do." Kara assured him.
"Good. Now anyways, I'm assuming you're here because you're planning on resuming your duties as Supergirl?" Clark asked.
"Yeah, I just need a suit and I was hoping I could get some kryptonian fabric to let Cisco use to make it." Kara said.
"I hear he's the guy to go on this new earth. Depending on what he does for your's, I may let him upgrade mine." Clark said with a smile.
"I can't wait to see his reaction when I tell him that." Kara said and Clark smiled.
"I keep a cache of fabric up at the fortress, I kept it there for when you decided to walk the path." Clark said.
"Thanks Clark and tell Lois I expect to be a bridesmaid at the wedding." Kara said and Clark smiled.
"Considering that you two get along better than Lois does with Lucy, I would not be not surprised if you were the maid of honor." Clark said.
"I'll have J'onn restore Lucy's memories. That should help them reconcile, since Lucy deserves to be Lois's maid of honor. Though maybe she and James can make things work out this time around. I think that they'd work well together in Calvintown. J'onn restored James's memories right?" Kara asked.
"He did." Clark confirmed.
"Tell him that I said hi and that his place is fighting for justice in Calvintown, not trying to protect me." Kara said with a smile.
"I will." Clark agreed as they hugged and Kara flew out of the apartment.

Young bloods (WIP)
" So-called leaders prostituted their people to wars and abuse. They destroyed families, culture and economies; their hands dyed red by the blood of the children, the families trampled by their lecherous motivations and diabolical war machines. Trained and taught by the Revenants or rather “young bloods” from their war-torn world, we were going to build a better world for us and for the later generations, a world when there shall be no more wars waged over territory, a world where boys and girls can frolic around for all of eternity." -Sasha, Terutan regular army cadet. ‘History is determined by the victors, and here we stand transcended over those who abused us. History is filled with liars, broken promises of eternal prosperity and peace. The more things change, the more things stayed the same: ideology change, location shift but power will always find a place to rest its head. We fought and bled for the adults, the grown men and women who preached of us being their future, preached us of the freedom from tyranny and slavery; no wonder why we hated them so. History is determined by the victor, and there shall be no victors when we’re done.’- Yulia Bronskavya, Red Army Homeguard. As the first modern war came to a close in November 1st, 1918, rows of passed juveniles laid the battlefields. In the name of some royal fat cats or some shitty national leader, cruelty and crimes were committed against the weak and the vulnerable younglings; in other words, adults were assholes. Their deaths marked a new beginning, a new beginning in a strange and magical land that was and had only been dreamt of in stories and folk tale, they had arrived to Terruta. The first ones regarded themselves as Revenants, heroes who had been able to be reborn in this world and began their adventure to explore this strange foreign land. However, “every coin have two sides, like everyone have two faces”. 'As they left their former life behind, the young soldiers and operators found themselves being deceived, abused and taken advantaged off again by the elders of this world. Many were abused, tortured, raped and sold to slavery, Revenants were quite sought after due to their timeless charm, strength, intellect and immortality, they were unable to be killed no matter what; many were bought and used as pets, slaves and entertainers for their masters’ entertainment. Fed up with the similar treatment and abuse by the adults of this world, many revolted and founded ICC, International Cooperative Coalition.'-Sasaki Kotegawa, JSDF Private.
8 222In Pursuit of Bark's Finest
On the frontiers of transhumanity’s expansion into the galaxy thousands of light years from the light of Sol, things can get rather chaotic. There are countless millions of nascent interstellar nations securing their interests, pirate ships prospering off plunder and deniable mercenary work, dissidents setting up their own civilizations, and other groups all trying to push an agenda. When these groups crash into each other, the results can become extremely messy and convoluted. Recently, a frontier nation calling itself the Red Star Union has found itself at the focal point of one such complication. A freighter under their protection has been sabotaged, hijacked in interstellar space, and robbed of its cargo. This would be bad enough even if all it were carrying was luxury goods, but the freighter Nebula Plow was carrying more than just normal trade goods. Indeed, her cargo of Non-Orientable Wormholes for use in starship power plants was both very expensive and very, very dangerous. Now the Red Star Union has to worry about a pirate crew running around with several extra devices capable of converting matter into antimatter with negligible energy cost. With those, the pirates could be capable of inflicting untold damage if allowed to leverage their ill-gotten gains into a stronger position, a possibility the Union finds completely intolerable. Unfortunately, all that the Red Star Union has to go on for evidence is two names; that of the captain, and that of the ship. The Captain is going by the possible pseudonym of Fuller, while the ship is named Bark’s Finest. And thus the orders came down to the Union’s Bureau of Starforce Intelligence: find more information on these pirates, conclusively identify them, and figure out where exactly they’ve gone to ground so that the fleet can crush them before they get established. Of the many agents that the bureau assigned to this mission, one would happen to play an important role: Field Agent Madeline Zargosty. This is her story. This story is entirely pre-written, and will have one chapter released per week. If you want to read it all ahead of schedule and get access to some premium-exclusive bonus content, the entire book is available for purchase; links to the appropriate storefront pages will be posted at the end of each chapter. This story is also being posted to Scribblehub.

8 157A Wish Fulfilled
The die is cast and omnipotent beings bow to the result. The world holds still in anticipation of a new actor. A man shall be ripped from his safe reality and cast upon new tapestry, familiar yet alien. His body will be reforged in flames of adversity. His mind, challenged, by crashing waves of doubt. And his soul will dance, to the amusement of those who observe. “Welcome, castaway, to the new world. Partake in its bounties and revel in its beauty, but be mindful of dangers. Your will is unbound and trials aplenty. The wish carried you here and you will define yourself anew. Live, as you see fit. Now, that the contract is fulfilled, it’s time. We shall not meet again, nor will you remember me. Farewell.” A falling star lights the skies and the die continues to roll. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
