《Dr Luthor - Supergirl AU》Plague

Kara's POV
We ran out to where my sister was directing us and we saw a crowd of people, all sick and coughing. They were each covered in blood and blisters and a few were already being taken in stretchers to other rooms.
"What the hell?" Lena and I both said almost in unison. I looked at Alex, asking what happened.
"We don't know. Suddenly all of these people were in here, it's like a more intense version of the plague."
"As in... the black plague?" Lena whispered. Alex and I both nodded, looking at the grieving woman, who had stopped crying and was looking around with fear.
"Lena, you need to call anyone who is willing to come in today. Kara, help me with a few of the bad ones." Lena grabbed her phone and went back into the room we were in before. I helped Alex check over a few of the really sick people before I saw Clarke practically fly into the room.
"What happened?" He said immediately, dropping to a few of the people on the floor.
"Some sort of illness that's going around. Apparently, these people just woke up and were covered in these bubonic type blisters."
"If it's anything like what happened in the past, we need to take precautions..." I watched as my cousin made his way through the infected people, he let me give him a hand as we slowly but surely ended up with an empty waiting room and a completely full hospital.
I walked out of one of the rooms, covered in blood and other fluids from the poor people. Lena ran out with a worried look on her face. "What is it?"
"Kara, it's contagious. Highly contagious. You, Alex, Clark... everyone who helped, you all need to get checked immediately!" She grabbed my arm and took me to her examination room, where my sister and cousin were waiting too. "Just sit there and don't move!" She ran out and the three of us looked at each other.

"What's happening?" I asked.
"All of the doctors that went too close to the victims are being checked for signs of whatever disease this is." Clarke was calm, unlike Alex, who was freaking out.
"What is this thing? It has filled my hospital! Why are all of these people sick?" She was ranting, something that was usually my speciality. I looked at her and stood up, walking over to her and putting a hand on her shoulder.
"Everything will be okay, Alex. I promise. We are going to be fine. I doubt that we will catch this and from here on out, we will be careful with quarantine and stuff." Alex hugged me as Lena came into the room.
"I need to take blood samples to test for anything irregular." She pulled out a few syringes and took our blood, labelling each of them with our I.D tags and putting them back in the small case.
"Lena..." I said, grabbing her arm just as she was walking out. She turned to me and gave me a quizzical look. "You need to test your blood too. You mightn't have been close to them but you were around them and us." She nodded and kept walking, leaving us alone once again.
After two hours of waiting, Clarke was pacing while Alex had fallen asleep on the bed behind us.
"Clarke, stop pacing. You are making me feel anxious."
"Sorry, I am just nervous. I have never been injured or sick or anything."
"Then I guess you would notice, right? Trust me, we are all going to be fine." I turned back to Alex, she was sitting up and rubbing her eyes. I walked to her slowly and helped her off the tall bed.

"What did I miss?" She yawned.
"A whole load of nothing. The door is locked so we can't get out." Clarke groaned. As if on cue, the door swung open and Lena walked in. She gave us each the results of the tests.
"I haven't looked at them yet, I figured you guys should be the first to find out for yourselves considering you can all read the results properly. Mine came back all clear, just so you know." She gave me a 'told you so' look. "Is everyone clear?" She asked.
"Yeah, all is clear," Clarke said, smiling and handing Lena the result page back. Alex did the same and they turned to me. Clarke sat back with relief before speaking up. "Kara, what about yours?"
"Clear." I lied.

Souls of Savagery
Souls of Savagery is a series of short stories intended to function much like a comic book series. However, to experience the complete story in a logical order you should read the volumes in numerical order, starting of course, with Volume 1: A Bloodbath by Any Other Name. Each volume is told from a single point of view and that will change from volume to volume. Though, the narrative will require later volumes to return to characters that have been featured previously. I hope you enjoy.
