《New Earth: Supergirl》Chapter 11
Advertisement
Both Alex and J'onn were getting worried by how long it was taking Kara to go get her aunt, since honestly, it should not be taking her this long. However, their worries died down when both Kara and Astra flew into the Tower.
"Aunt Astra, welcome to the Tower." Kara said as she showed her aunt around.
"An impressive headquarters." Astra said.
"You must be Kara's aunt." Alex said and Astra nodded.
"I am Astra. And you must be the sister she told me of." Astra said.
"You'll know exactly who I am in a minute." Alex said, confusing Astra until she saw J'onn shift to his green martian form.
"I thought all of your kind were wiped out." Astra said.
"Everything will become clear in a moment." J'onn said and before Astra could do anything, J'onn placed his hand to her temple and after giving Novu a silent thanks for boosting his powers to allow him to do this as he restored Astra's memories.
"You killed me." Astra said to Alex as she recovered from the mental overload.
"I was defending my boss and my friend. I had no other choice since Kara was preoccupied with your husband." Alex said.
"Aunt Astra, please do not force me to choose between you and her, since I will side with Alex." Kara said.
"You'd side with her over your own blood?" Astra asked.
"Family is more than blood and she is family who hasn't spent time in prison or tried to kill me." Kara reminded her and Astra sighed, since she knew her niece was right. As a warrior, Astra understood the position she'd put Alex in, since she knew that she'd do the same thing if their roles were reversed and Alex had acted far more like family to Kara than she had since they both arrived on Earth.
"I can understand why you did what you did Alex and the warrior part of me even respects you for putting your emotions aside to do this. And if Kara is willing to forgive you for what you did, then I can learn to as well." Astra said.
"You actually won't have to see me for long." Alex said.

"What do you mean?" Astra asked.
"Didn't J'onn bring you up to speed on everything that happened after you died?" Kara asked and Astra quickly thought about it before realizing what her niece meant.
"Argo survived." Astra said.
"And my mother along with it. And we've already located where it is right now, but I can't leave Earth right now. So we decided that you should look for it, since Non's forces will be coming after you and I'll be able to focus more on stopping them if I'm not also worrying about you." Kara said.
"And I can make amends with my sister." Astra said, since honestly, she missed the relationship she used to have with Alura before she allowed Non to get in her head and pervert her desire to save Krypton to his own ends.
"So you'll do it?" Kara asked and Astra nodded.
"Do you have a way for me to track it?" Astra asked and Kara nodded as she walked over to the computers and pulled out a device and handed it to her aunt.
"This device will sync up with the navigation system of any ship you take to track the energy signal of the substance Argo uses to power itself. You can use it to find Argo. However, you won't be able to contact them or us, since the barrier that keeps Argo safe blocks all signals from getting in or out of the city." Kara said and Astra nodded.
"Do you have a ship I can use?" Astra asked.
"I'll actually be going with you, so we'll take my ship." J'onn said.
"Why are you going?" Astra asked.
"Because J'onn is not the last Green Martian." Kara realized and J'onn nodded.
"I was not aware that others had survived." Astra said.
"Two others did and they are both related to me. My father, M'yrnn J'onzz, is on Mars and is being held prisoner by the white martians. The other is my brother Malefic, who is actually currently imprisoned in the phantom zone, since he betrayed my people to the Whites." J'onn said.
"And you still wish to free him?" Astra asked.
"Malefic only turned out the way he did because of a rare condition he had growing up that caused his own people to ostracize him." Kara said.

"It's a long story that I will tell you on the way, but we will be stopping at Mars on the way back from Argo, since I'm sure Alura will want to come back with us and I could use both of your help freeing my father, since I'm planning on restoring her memories, along with the memories of my family." J'onn said and Astra nodded.
"You're in charge of the DEO while I'm gone Alex." J'onn said and Alex nodded.
"Of course." Alex said.
"We should leave immediately. Since Non will no doubt be quick to take command of my forces and begin our plan, the sooner I can get off earth the better." Astra said.
"Wait, you're running?" Kara asked.
"No. But Non is no doubt tracking me somehow. I suspect that after my betrayal, he'll want to pursue me personally." Astra said.
"So you think you can lure him away?" Alex asked.
"Possibly. And if Non leaves, the soldiers will be in disarray. And since you already know where we're working out of, you can stop them and leave Non weakened with no army to lead." Astra said.
"Not a bad idea." Alex said and Kara nodded.
"We'll be back soon." J'onn said and Kara and Alex nodded as they both hugged him before Kara turned to her aunt.
"Tell my mom I love her and I can't wait to see her." Kara said and Astra nodded as she hugged her niece.
"Good luck my little one." Astra said with a smile.
"Thank you. For listening to me." Kara said.
"Thank you for making me see the truth." Astra said as she and J'onn left the tower.
"Are you sure this is a good idea sir?" one of Non's troops asked him as they approached a seemingly abandoned house.
"Astra was too soft to realize what great allies they could be for our cause. If our intel is correct, they share similar goals to us. We can help each other." Non said confidently as the ground began to shake.
"Show yourself." Non said, not at all intimidated by these tricks.
The ground continued to shake until the earth began to rise until it took a humanoid form.
"Hello Non. I was wondering when you'd come here." the man said.
"Rama Khan. We have much to discuss." Non said with a smile, since he knew that this would be the beginning of their new campaign.
"What could we have to discuss kryptonian?" Rama Khan asked.
"We are both survivors of lost worlds from the same system and we both seek to ensure that this world does not suffer the same fate. We can help each other." Non said.
"Perhaps. But before I'm willing to consider an alliance with you, you'll need to prove that you're worthy of it." Rama Khan said.
"I have information that will make your mission easier." Non said.
"What kind of information?" Rama Khan asked.
"Information I know you and your associates have been trying to get for years. The real names of Superman and Supergirl." Non said.
"Keep talking." Rama Khan said.
"I'm sorry, but I will only disclose this information to my partner." Non said and Rama Khan nodded.
"I understand. Trust must be earned on both sides." Rama Khan said and Non nodded.
"Once we've cemented our partnership, then I will give you the information. I need reassurance that you won't double cross me once I tell you." Non said.
"And we need assurance that you won't turn on us after our partnership ceases to benefit you." Rama Khan said and Non nodded.
"Perhaps we should discuss this further inside." Non said and Rama Khan nodded.
"Only you will be permitted inside. Your associates will not." Rama Khan said.
"Sir, are you sure about this?" one of Non's troops asked.
"I need to do what it takes to make this work. Besides, if they double cross me, I have no issue revealing their location to those pursuing them." Non said and his troops nodded as they flew off.
"Let us speak now." Rama Khan said as he showed him inside.
