《New Earth: Supergirl》Chapter 4
Advertisement
After Kara picked up Nia after a few days, since she also spent some time going through the Fortress's database for anything that could help Cisco with whole suit miniaturization tech, since working with alien fabric was different than human tech, not to mention, from what she'd heard from the Barry, the current suit ring Cisco designed really only worked for speedsters and other people with super speed. She was hoping that the data she'd found would help him make portable suits for everyone, since they really could come in handy for every hero to have instant access to their suits. If Cisco worked it out, she'd give the tech plans to Kate's tech guy to upgrade her suit to.
Anyways, after picking Nia up, they headed to Central City so that they could talk to Cisco about their suits and so Kara could offer Iris a position with DDN.
"So, what was it like seeing your mom again?" Kara asked Nia as they walked through Central City towards Jitters, since Kara knew that Iris still worked there now, which made it the best place for a surprise reunion.
"It was great. She taught me so much more about how to interpret my dream visions and she gave me a lot of Maeve's old research material to help me continue with it back in National City." Nia said.
"And how did Maeve take it when she found out that she got skipped over?" Kara asked, silently adding again, which Nia picked up on.
"About as well as she did before. Let's just say I will no longer be sending her a Christmas gift anymore. She crossed the same line she did before." Nia said.
"Nia, I'm so sorry." Kara said.
"Don't be, it's not your fault that Maeve is acting like a jealous brat. My parents on the other hand are very proud of me. Too bad I didn't tell them I wasn't going to be National City's primary superhero." Nia said and Kara laughed.
"Supergirl may be the cover hero of National City, but Dreamer is no less important." Kara said.
"I know and believe me, I prefer not being the title hero, it sounds like too much pressure." Nia said and Kara chuckled.

"You have no idea. I wouldn't give it up for a minute though. Being a hero, saving people, there's no greater feeling." Kara said.
"Believe me I know. You forget I had to cover for you after Lex framed you for attacking the white house." Nia said.
"Don't remind me about that dark time. Though I did manage to talk some sense into Lena. She's no longer out to get us or try to mind control the planet or whatever it was she was trying to do and I think we might actually be on the road to recovery. She still has to deal with Alex though." Kara said and Nia smiled.
"Please let me be there for that." Nia said.
"I'm thinking about charging admission." Kara said.
"So anyways, you think that Lena is back on our side?" Nia asked.
"Time will tell. Though she is going to help us expose Lex's true colors to the world." Kara said.
"Going for your pulitzer early this time around huh?" Nia asked.
"I'm trying to expose one of the biggest sociopaths in history to the world. The pulitzer thing is just a bonus." Kara said and Nia nodded as they approached Jitters.
Kara smiled when she spotted Iris, who quickly spotted her as well and then quickly moved to take her break before walking out to where she and Nia were standing.
"Kara, what a surprise." Iris said as she hugged her.
"Yeah, Iris, this is my friend Nia." Kara said.
"Nice to meet you." Iris said.
"You too." Nia said.
"What are you doing here?" Iris asked.
"Two reasons. The first of which I'm sure you can already guess." Kara said.
"Cisco." Iris said.
"Iris, Nia knows. She's a member of my team. She has a suit, but we want Cisco to upgrade it, along with making my suit." Kara said and Iris smiled.
"He spent a lot of time complaining about how he never got to make your suit." Iris said.
"Well now he can. But I also came here to see you." Kara said.
"Why me?" Iris asked.

"On this earth, I started my own media outlet, Danvers Daily News and I want to offer you a job with it." Kara said.
"Kara, I can't move to National City." Iris said.
"I'm not asking you to. Iris, I'm trying to build a national media outlet and Central City is the first place I want to start. And I want to put you in charge of it, since I can't cover every new hero coming out of the woodwork, so I'm counting on you to do it. You would be in charge of everything for the Central City office, like you were when you owned your own paper, with minimal oversight, you'd just need to check in with me every month. Though you would have to work online for the moment, since while I can afford to hire you, I can't afford to open up a second office." Kara said.
"This actually sounds like a great deal. I'd still get to be the boss, but I'd be able to rely on you for more of the administrative stuff and get your approval on things. I'm in and maybe I can help you out with opening a second office." Iris said and Kara smiled.
"Welcome to Danvers Daily News." Kara said and Iris smiled.
"Thanks Kara." Iris said.
"You're welcome. I'll email you everything you need to know and get you set up as an official employee when I get back to National City. Now, we need to go meet with Cisco and then I'm gonna say hi to Barry while I'm here." Kara said and Iris nodded as she went back inside to give Jitters her two weeks notice as Kara and Nia headed towards Star Labs.
When they arrived, they found Cisco waiting for them outside.
"Iris texted you didn't see?" Kara asked.
"She did and let me just say I am very excited to finally get to make your suit." Cisco said as he noticed the boxes.
"What are these?" Cisco asked.
"This is kryptonian fabric that you are to use only for my suit." Kara said as she handed it to him.
"Yay." Cisco said, his eyes bugging out of his head.
"Ahem." Nia said.
"Sorry, I don't think we've met." Cisco said.
"I'm Nia Nal, but I also answer to Dreamer. I'm a part of Kara's team." Nia said.
"Huh, Dreamer. How'd you get that name, you sleep on the job?" Cisco asked.
"Kind of. My powers allow me to dream the future." Nia said.
"Got it. Have to admit, it's catchy, though not my name." Cisco said.
"No, it was my grandmother's mantle." Nia said.
"Got it. And what's this?" Cisco asked.
"My grandmother's suit. In the old universe, it also became mine. Kara said that you could give it some upgrades though." Nia said.
"I think I can figure something out." Cisco agreed.
"And one more thing." Kara said as she reached into her jacket pocket and pulled out a small drive.
"What's on this?" Cisco asked.
"Everything you need to know to make suit rings for non speedsters who can't just run into them. Courtesy of the archives at the Fortress." Kara said and Cisco grinned.
"I love this earth. Thanks. I'll let you know when they're done, but it might be awhile since I'm doing Barry's suit, then mine, then Caitlin's, and then I have Oliver's team to worry about and then I'll get to yours." Cisco said.
"That's fine." Kara assured him and Nia also nodded her agreement.
"Thanks for this. You won't regret it." Cisco said.
"I hope not. Because Superman said that depending on what you do with my suit, he might let you upgrade his." Kara said and she and Nia were not disappointed by his reaction.
"Cool." Cisco said simply.
"One last thing, where's Barry?" Kara asked.
"Check CCPD." Cisco said and Kara nodded.
"I'll be back in a bit. I can't stop by Central City and not say hi to Barry." Kara said and Nia nodded as she watched her fly off.
