The end
“Eliza, we still have the matter of Lex Luthor to deal with.” Barry's father states as he walks into the kitchen. The Ministry of Magic was called and Eliza and the rest of the Order had explained what happened. There were still those at the Ministry who were rumored to be Death Eaters so they feared their accusations would fall on deaf ears. From what they gathered the Luthor and Matthews family were primarily behind but once they fled the only evidence they had was Lex himself.
Lex Luthor was still stunned outside and once the spell was reversed would be sent straight to Azkaban while he awaited trial.
No one knew what was going to happen next. It was the beginning of what would be a long era or loss and destruction but for the moment Eliza knew they couldn’t stay in that house. She got to pick a new safe house within the order and had Alex and Kara pack up what they could.
Lena could never go back to the Luthor Manor, in the eyes of the Death Eaters…she was a traitor. The Order was able to speak with the headmaster at Hogwarts and was granted a place to stay as long as she needed it. In the panic Lena hadn't had time to think about grabbing any of her belongings. To be honest, she didn’t care much, she was just thankful that Kara, Eliza and Alex were okay. She sat at the kitchen table while she sipped on the tea Eliza had made for her.
“You know Lena, what you did tonight was very brave. We all owe you a lot and I don’t know if I could ever truly thank you” Eliza tells her as she squeezes her arm for reassurance.
“It was the right thing to do, I could never let anything happen to Kara.”
“You are nothing like your family, I hope you know that.”
“Well, I guess I won’t be seeing them anytime soon, so that’s a plus.”
“I wanted to talk to you about that. I don’t think you should go back to school.”
“No offense Mrs. Danvers but I don’t exactly have anywhere else to go.”
“I think you should come with us. We have plenty of room for you and myself and the Order will look after you.”
“That’s very sweet but I couldn’t”
“Please Lena… You deserve to choose a life of your own and this is the chance.”
Lena thought about it.
Maybe this was the universe's weird way of giving her a chance to start over. She literally had nothing to her name but she could have a fresh start. The battle had just begun, the Death Eaters weren’t just going to let her go, and she thought to herself that maybe she would be safer with them.
“But I’m a Luthor, I don’t think the Order will like that much.”
“You are so much more than that, you showed us tonight who you really are and they all agreed that you’d be better with us.”
Kara and Alex had bolted down the stairs with suitcases in tow.
“Okay mom we’re ready!” Alex yells out as she rounds the corner into the kitchen.
“Well Lena I’ll leave it up to you, are you staying with us or will we have Hagrid come pick you up.”
Kara is right behind Alex and stops in the kitchen and looks at Lena as Eliza talks to Lena.
Lena is quiet for a moment.
Kara extends her hand out for Lena to take and she doesn’t at first.
“Come on Miss Luthor, you’re coming with us.”
For the first time in a long time when she grabbed Kara’s hand she felt at home. Despite everything that laid ahead, at least they would face it together.
After gathering their belongings, they packed it all away into the car.
Before they get in Lena stops Kara and cups her check and looks deeply in her beautiful blue eyes.
“Miss Danvers, colliding with you was the best thing that ever happened to me.”
“It was the best accident I ever had.”
