When Kara returned to her apartment that night, she was surprised when she heard someone already inside due to her super hearing. However, instead of just rushing in, Kara used her x-ray vision to see who was inside and when she saw who it was, she nearly squealed with joy and relief as she entered her apartment to find her aunt waiting for her.

"Hello Little One." Astra said and Kara smiled.

"Aunt Astra. How, I thought you were on Fort Rozz." Kara said.

"How did you know I was a prisoner there?" Astra asked, shocked, since she didn't think Alura would tell Kara the truth.

"I kept asking mom why you stopped visiting until she finally told me what happened. Everything. Including Myriad." Kara said.

"So you know that I was trying to save Krypton." Astra said.

"You might've saved the actual planet, but you lost sight of the fact that Krypton is not just a planet, it's a people. It's an ideal. And I think that if you'd succeeded with using Myriad on Krypton, it still would've died, just not the planet." Kara said.

"What do you mean?" Astra asked, not understanding.

"You wouldn't have just been taking away people's free will, you'd be taking away their emotions. Their ability to recognize each other." Kara said.

"Kara, I was trying to save you." Astra said.

"I know. You once told me that you couldn't love more than if Rao had given you a child of your own. Well if you'd gone through with your plan, then you still would've lost me, because I wouldn't even recognize you. No one would've recognized anyone. The planet might've survived, though honestly, considering how far along the damage was by the time people finally woke up and realized what we were doing to our planet, I doubt that it would've worked. Krypton was too far gone to be saved. But anyways, I wouldn't recognize you anymore. And honestly, I'm not even sure if you'd recognize me. You'd lose the very person you claim to have been doing this for." Kara said, trying desperately to get through to her, since she didn't want to lose her again due to them being on opposite sides of this fight and she could tell that she was succeeding.

"I was trying to save our home." Astra said, since while deep down, she knew that Kara was right, but she didn't want to admit that she was wrong.

"Aunt Astra, please, this planet is not as far gone as Krypton was. We can find another way to save this planet from Krypton's fate. A better way." Kara said.

"Kara, I can't leave. If I do, then Non will take over my forces and he will not be as understanding. And worse, he will likely blame you for making me weak. I can't put a target on your back like that." Astra said.

"I did that the moment I put that S on. Both Kal-El's enemies and the prisoners my mother sent to Fort Rozz will be after me. I knew that the moment I put on that S. But instead of trying to shelter from this, train me in how to fight." Kara said, since her aunt had been one of the best warriors in the military guild and Astra nodded, finally accepting that her niece was right. Myriad was not the way.

"I am still a fugitive on this planet." Astra said.

"I know the man in charge of the organization that would likely be in charge of taking you into custody. I'm sure I can convince him to work out a deal for you." Kara said, since she knew that both J'onn and Alex would be very agreeable to this, since she also wanted to see if J'onn could restore her aunt's memories, since he'd managed to restore Clark's, not that she knew how he'd been able to do that, but still.

Astra smiled at her.

"Even if you can't, the time we'll have before I get sent back to prison will be enough." Astra said as she hugged her little one again and Kara actually felt like she was a child again, finding so much comfort in her aunt's arms as she wondered whether or not her mother and Argo existed on this earth as well.

Kara wasn't the only one who received an unexpected guest when she returned to her apartment that night. Only Lena's guest was not someone she was eager to see.

"What are you doing here Lex?" Lena asked him, annoyed that he'd decided to just enter her apartment without even calling to let her know he was in town. Last she'd heard, he was back in Metropolis, secretly trying to bring down Superman and Supergirl. Not that she'd let him lay a finger on either of them now.

"Checking in on you. After all, with Supergirl returning, you must be angry." Lex said.

"I made my peace with Kara." Lena said simply.

"Really? Last time I checked, you were furious with her for lying to you." Lex said.

"Then she reminded me of all the secrets I've kept and the problems they created. And working with you was one of the biggest." Lena said as she covertly tapped the display on her new watch.

"Well that is disappointing." Lex said as he walked up to her.

"So, I'm guessing this is where you tell me I'm fired?" Lena asked, sarcastically.

"Well yes, but more than that." Lex said he pulled out a knife.

"What are you doing?" Lena asked nervously as she moved back from him.

"I kept your mind intact because I was hoping that remembering Kara Danvers' betrayal would sway you to my side. But since that didn't work, well, I do owe you for shooting me several times." Lex said.

"You realize that they'll put you away for life for Sororicide. You'll go from being a respected genius back to being the lunatic you really are." Lena said.

"You really think that I'd leave proof behind?" Lex asked as he walked towards his sister menacingly.

"Lex, don't do this?" Lena said, even though she knew it was futile.

"I really am sorry about this Lena, but I can't risk you exposing me." Lex said as he noticed Lena trying to find the nearest escape route.

"Oh, I wouldn't bother with that." Lex said as Mercy and Otis Graves both walked in from different areas of the penthouse and each restrained her.

"You know Supergirl will burn you for this." Lena said.

"How can she when I have her secret identity to bargain with?" Lex asked with a smug grin and in one fell swoop, Lena gasped in pain as she felt the knife pierce her stomach.

"I really am sorry sis. But you know I have to look out for myself first. But don't worry, this won't kill you. It'll just teach you a lesson." Lex said as Mercy and Otis let Lena go and let her fall to the ground.

"Why don't you just finish her?" Mercy asked and Lex smiled.

"Because she's family." Lex said as they moved to leave the apartment, only to find themselves blocked by some kind of forcefield.

"What the?" Otis asked as Lena chuckled weakly.

"New security system. One way forcefield. It lets people in. But then they can't get out." Lena said.

"Oh, you should save your strength dear Lena. And you really think that this will hold me? I always was smarter than you." Lex said.

"If that was true, then you would've known you're about to have company." Lena said, right as Supergirl flew into the penthouse.

"Lex, I was wondering when I'd get to punch you again." Supergirl said.

"Now, you have a choice Supergirl. Stop me, or save her. What's it going to be?" Lex asked.

"I choose both." Supergirl said as the door to the penthouse flew open and Dreamer burst into it, trapping all three of them in a lasso of dream energy.

"Night, night." Dreamer said as she blasted Lex, Mercy and Otis into unconsciousness.

"J'onn's on his way with Alex now." Dreamer said to Supergirl, who nodded as she got on comms.

"Winn, use the camera in my suit to get Lex's biometrics to access his personal records on the Luthor Corp system. Erase any evidence or backup memories he might have stored, since when J'onn arrives, I'm gonna have him erase Lex's memories of the old earth." Supergirl said over comms.

"Copy that. But in the meantime, Lena's watch is measuring her vitals and they are spiking hard. She is not going to make it if you just wait for Alex." Winn said.

"Well what can I do?" Supergirl asked desperately.

"You can use your heat vision to cauterize the wound shut. It'll hurt Lena like hell, but it'll keep her alive until Alex is able to treat her." Winn said.

"Got it." Supergirl said as she walked over to Lena and lifted her shirt slightly.

"What are you doing?" Lena asked, despite how lightheaded she was feeling.

"Saving your life. Though I have to warn you, this is going to hurt like hell." Supergirl said.

"Can't be any worse than what I'm currently feeling." Lena said.

"Yeah, remember that." Supergirl said as she carefully used her heat vision to cauterize Lena's wound shut, though that didn't stop her from screaming in pain at the feeling before she passed out and Supergirl then used her freeze breath to soothe the pain as they waited for the remaining superfriends to arrive.
