Lena stood up and walked over to the fridge, looking for something to eat. Since Kara was gone for work she had watched two movies. She was bored and her shoulder had started to hurt again. When she realized there was nothing delicious in the fridge, she decided to look for something in other places.

She literally looked in every cupboard in the kitchen and living room, so she moved on into Kara's bedroom. She knew from herself and some friends that every living human being had at least one place in their house with delicious food. 

But she only found sweaters, skirts, trousers, shirts and some sort of suits that looked like the supersuit of Supergirl, but a really funny and a little revealing version. She kinda wanted to see Kara in these suits. She also found a cape and just smiled. Yeah that's when you know Supergirl personally, she thought. 

But also on and inside of the night table, there was no food hidden. Lena sank back on the bed, disappointed. She was about to clean everything up when she noticed a little book in one of Kara's night table drawers. She grabbed it and opened it. The first pages were messy and looked as if a little kid had tried to write. After a few pages, there where first sentences and meanings. 

Lena was flicking trough the book, when a photo of her and Kara looked her straight in the eyes. She grabbed it and looked closer. She smiled at the memory of the picture. She turned the photo around. On the back it said: 

"Love is light. Wherever you are and whatever you've seen, no one will be able to harm you if you treat them with love. Love is the only thing that's existing in every world and every universe."

- Mom.

Lena smiled. This was true. And the flying example was Supergirl. Lena looked back at the quote. She admired Kara's beautiful handwriting, before she laid the photo back in the book and put it back in the drawer. 

After she had cleaned the bedroom up again, Lena walked over in the kitchen and grabbed the painkiller she had found when she had searched for food. She took it and flushed it down her throat with some water. She was about to turn around when she felt a cold blade pressed against her throat. Her breath stopped and she could feel a warm brise of air on her neck. 

"Lena Luthor. Never have I imagined we would meet again so soon." The voice was the same as the last time and the memories of her nearly death came back. She slowly put her hands together and opened her watch. While she quickly pressed the red button, the man turned her to  the window and walked her towards it. 

She stood at the window and heard him laugh. "Oh, how well do we know this situation. Just that this time, no one will save you." 

"What makes you so sure?" Lena lifted her eyebrow, knowing the man couldn't see it. 

"Oh, it's not difficult to catch someone falling when you can fly. But it is difficult to save someone, who", he increased the pressure on the knife, "is getting stabbed and cut open." Lena heard him giggle. She checked her chances to survive this. Without Supergirl, they were around zero. Where was her gorgeous hero when she needed her? 

The man suddenly stopped laughing and it scared Lena even more. That couldn't mean anything good. Then she noticed how he turned her around. "And what if I don't?", he hissed at the hero that was standing in the doorway.  

Supergirl looked at him, calm and annoyed. "If you don't, buddy, you won't have hands anymore." Her eyes went red and Lena could tell she was not really joking around. 

The kryptonian melted the knife with her heat vision and the man looked shocked in his empty hand. Lena quickly stepped away from him and Supergirl walked slowly towards him while shielding the CEO with her body. His eyes looked scared, quickly moving between Supergirl and Lena. "And now the hero is protecting the devil. Oh, how much worse can this world get?"

Supergirl looked angry and Lena shocked. "Take that back!" Supergirl said, her face filled with anger. 

The man smiled evilly. "I would, but I can't..." And then he disappeared. 

Supergirl searched in the whole apartment and all along the street, but she couldn't find him. 

"At least I've got his face." She said, about to leave. Then she turned around and looked at Lena. "You're not save here." 

"I won't go in my appartement. I bet he's already been there and I-", Lena started to argue, not wanting to be alone there. 

"I'm taking you with me." Supergirl lifted her without further ado and flew out of the window.

When they arrived at the DEO, it was a total mess. Everyone was running around and even J'onn, who used to be so calm and organized, shouted. Supergirl finally found Alex in the disaster, and headed towards her, Lena in her arms. She set Lena next to Alex up. "Hey Alex, what's going on in here? And could you please give Lena a room? A nice one, since she's not a villian." 

"Actually, no." Alex was about to say ‚Kara', but she stopped herself when she noticed Lena. "We have a big problem here with a teleporting alien." 

"Oh, we already had his pleasure." Supergirl said, pointing at Lena. "He's the one trying to kill Lena. Last time he had a knife." 

"Kar- Supergirl! He's IN here!" Alex shouted. 

"Lena. You stay by my side, whatever happens." That was not question and Lena just nodded. She knew the situation was serious. Supergirl turned around, looking in the hall. "Shut up and stay still for a second!" She shouted and looked around. Nearly everybody had noticed her and stood still and quiet. "Everybody!" The last ones turned around and shut up. 

"We've got a problem and it's in here. It's a teleporting alien. His target is Lena Luthor. I will protect her, but all of you have to find out what's his weakness. Everyone has a weakness. And he probably can't teleport everywhere and through everything. J'onn, you lead that. Alex, you take a team and find out who he is and what Lena did to make him that angry. Winn, Code 11. In three Minutes, at 367." Supergirl looked around to see everyone ready. "Okay, lets do it."

Supergirl took Lena's hand without hesitation and walked her over to the side. Then she turned to the CEO, her blue eyes filled with compassion. "You need to stay calm. Your life is in danger and the man trying to kill you can appear anywhere any time, but you're better than that. I know you got that. Don't worry, I will stay by your side until he's defeated."
