《New Earth: Supergirl》Chapter 39
Advertisement
The morning after Kara returned to National City, she entered her office to see her whole team jump up and yell "SURPRISE!" and she saw that they'd decorated her office, including a banner that read CONGRATULATIONS KARA!
"What's going on here?" Kara asked.
"Clark didn't tell you?" Nia asked.
"Told me what?" Kara asked.
"While you were gone, we got a call saying that you've won the Pulitzer Prize for your exposes on both the ASA and Lex." Nia said as Alex handed her sister a glass of champagne.
"I finally got my Pulitzer back. Cool." Kara said.
"On a similar topic, I have retaken my position as the owner and CEO of Luthor Corp, which I am planning on renaming L-Corp again and Andrea and I are already talking about a potential merger between our companies, since we don't want to be competitors." Lena said and now Kara's good mood was diminished as she realized what that meant.
"How many people died when Lex escaped?" Kara asked.
"The entire FBI task force that had been sent in to subdue him, at least that we know of and we couldn't get there in time because his office and mansion were both shielded against unauthorized transmat portals and even J'onn and Brainy couldn't fly fast enough to get there before he escaped." Alex said.
"Don't worry Kara, we'll find him and we'll beat him. Again." J'onn said.
"I hope so. Though it will be harder for him to do anything now that we've also exposed a majority of his conspirators, including Baker." Kara said.
"True. But anyways, you must be psyched that not only are your aunt and uncle still alive, but apparently so did the capital city of Krypton and they've terraformed another planet into a new Krypton." Alex said, since Mon-El had brought them up to speed while she was in Metropolis.

"Yeah, I am. It's actually where Mon-El and I are planning on spending our honeymoon." Kara said.
"No surprise, but I want to see this place too." Alex said.
"Well, Jor-El did say that New Krypton's atmosphere was compatible with humans." Mon-El said and Kara nodded.
"I promise, you will all get a chance to see New Krypton, but not until after our honeymoon, since Mon-El and I both agreed that we're staying on Earth until then." Kara said and they all nodded in agreement.
"So, you called your parents right?" Alex asked her.
"I did and they are on their way. My dad is very eager to see his brother again." Kara said.
"I bet. Though I do not share the feeling. Honestly, the further Lex stays away from me the better." Lena said.
"Lex isn't the member of your family we need to keep an eye on right now, mainly because we don't know where he is." Kara said.
"My mother." Lena said and Kara nodded.
"We all know that it was Lex being exposed the first time that drove Lillian to turn Cadmus into what it was." Kara said.
"We also need to know the locations of any bunkers or safehouses Lex might have, since in addition to them being a potential location for him to be hiding in, but it's also stockpiled with weapons and other devices we should probably have locked up in the Fortress of Solitude, which I have personally ensured that no Luthors can enter, not even you Lena." Kara said, raising an eyebrow at her friend.
"Which I get, considering what happened the last time I was there. Hell, I'm amazed you let me in the Tower." Lena said.
"You helped build the tower, of course we're not gonna kick you out of it." Alex said.

"But honestly, it's not really a trust thing. If your brother or mother discovered that you are authorized for the Fortress they'd likely try to use you to gain access to it. I've also programmed it to attack the real Hank Henshaw should he return." Kara said.
"Smart." Lena said.
"On the topic of Lex, when my parents get here, I'm going to be talking to them, Clark and his parents about a potential idea I have to deal with him once we catch him." Kara said.
"And what might that be?" Alex asked.
"The only place I can think that might actually be able to hold him. The Phantom Zone." Kara said.
"Not a bad idea. After all, Lex may be a genius, but even he can't breathe in space." Lena said.
"But we'd still need a place to put him within the Phantom Zone." J'onn said.
"Is Fort Rozz still in Nevada?" Kara asked.
"It is, but it's not capable of space flight." Alex said.
"I'm sure that if we get Kara's dad, her uncle, plus myself, Brainy, Lena and maybe even some of the brains from the other teams, I'm sure we can get the thing up and running." Winn said.
"The governments of the world will likely still want Lex to stand trial." Alex said.
"I'm sure we can convince the government to approve it." J'onn said.
"We don't have any other choice. There isn't a prison on Earth that Lex wouldn't be able to find a way out of, so we need to put him somewhere he can't get out of. And I doubt that Lex is the only criminal we'd need to put in there and we might not be the only ones who use it. I'm sure Barry and Oliver at least could also use it and who knows, maybe Kate and Sara could too." Kara said.
"It is something to consider. An actual supervillain prison that really can keep people safe from them." J'onn said.
"I'll speak to the president about this, though I doubt she'll have a problem with it, since it involves keeping the world safe." Alex said, since her promotion had finally been made official and J'onn had resigned from the DEO and was now working as a PI in the building next to Kara's office.
"We'll discuss it more once my parents get here." Kara said and they all nodded in agreement as they resumed their celebration.
