I land at the DEO shortly after Alex's call to hurry over. She didn't tell me why, only that I should get here straight away. There wasn't any chaos when I arrived. In fact, things seemed calm. If there were an emergency agents would be strapping on weapons and protective gear. I see Alex and Hank at the center console talking to someone.

"Lena! What are you doing here?" I hadn't shown her where this place was yet.

"I had a breakthrough. Your sister was kind enough to bring me so I could use her lab." She says. My eyes scan her. I haven't seen her in two days. I tried taking her food but Jess kept saying she was in the lab. Her red dress hugged her in sinful ways and I could feel my face start to grow hot.

"Lena found a way for you to train here with anyone," Alex says. My eyes break from Lena's and I look at my sister. She's smiling but I think she knows what I was thinking.

"Yes, Ms. Luthor was a big help in finding the missing puzzle pieces that we needed." Hank doesn't sound as happy having a Luthor figure out what his team couldn't, or being in his secret base.

"Really how?" Lena never ceases to amaze me.

"Come with me. I miss being able to knock you on your ass." Alex starts walking down one of the halls and brings me to a room similar to the one we had at the desert base for the kryptonite-powered room. I step in ahead of Alex. But I feel nothing.

"So what did Lena do?" Alex hits a button on the wall but it isn't like the first time she tried to do it. When she takes a swing I am able to sidestep it. Then I notice some panels glowing red along the outside of the room.

"Red sun emitters. It took Lena to figure out how to cause the radiation to take instant effect and also stop effecting your body immediately. And there are no possible side effects, unlike the kryptonite." That's the end of the conversation. Without my speed and strength, it took all my concentration to fight Alex. Hank was good but he also didn't have to train as much. Alex was great and as promised knocked me on my ass a few times.

We left the room after the I was looking up at the ceiling for the fifth time and refused to get up again.

"Man I am out of practice," I say starring at the fluorescents dangling over me. Then Alex's hand appears in my face to help me to my feet.

"Well thanks to your..." she raises an eyebrow at me.

"Friend"

"Thanks to your friend we can start training again."

When we get back out to the main room Lena is sitting in a chair talking to Winn.

"Oh no. This can't be good." I say, panicked about what Winn could tell her about me. Alex just laughs and keeps walking to check on some of the monitors.

"Kara hey! I didn't know Lena knew." Winn is a little too happy. "This is great! I've wanted to talk to her about stuff since we stopped those alien guns."

"Talk to her about what?"

"Oh, Winn is just telling me about a bunch of different aliens you've had to face. And those kryptonite repelling suits sound amazing. We should work more on that." The last part was to Winn.

"Oh okay. Well, do you want a lift home? They don't really need me today and Alex has beaten me enough times already." Lena's face drains a little and a look at her quizzically.

"Like a lift, lift? Like flying?"

"Yes. What's the matter? I've flown with you before?"
