Chapter 1
It was date night for Kara and Lena, both women happy to relax after a long week.
A week ago, the couple got engaged, in some weird twist of fate, they both proposed on the same night but it made it even more special. Sadly, they couldn’t stay in their bubble of happiness forever and the world seemed determined to keep them busy with work and well, super work, almost every day since their engagement. That was why they had planned to enjoy their evening fully.
Lena was at her penthouse, well theirs since Kara had moved in a long time ago, waiting for Supergirl to finish whatever she was doing around the city. When she felt a gust of wind coming from the window, follow by a thud on the balcony, she tore her eyes away from the TV.
The CEO smiled lovingly as her fiancé approached her, quickly flopping herself on the couch next to her and settling her head on her lap. “Hello, darling.”
“Hey, babe…” The blonde mumbled, her face buried in the girl’s lap.
The raven-haired woman chuckled. “Long day, huh?” She started stroking the girl’s hair.
“Oh, Rao, you have no idea!” Kara exclaimed before practically purring at the soft fingers in her hair.
“Is there anything I can do to help?” Lena asked not so innocently.
Kara turned around so she could look at her lover and smiled. “Maybe.” She slowly licked her lips, a clear invitation for the raven-haired woman to kiss her.
The CEO smirked before leaning down to kiss Kara. They kissed slowly at first, happy to reconnect after a long day apart before deepening the kiss. Lena growled when Kara suddenly broke the kiss.
The superhero didn’t waste any time to sit on the couch and pulled her fiancé closer. Lena swiftly straddled the woman’s thighs and went back to kiss Kara hungrily.
The older woman knew where this was going and she shuddered in anticipation. Lena bit the blonde’s bottom lip and they both moaned. Slowly, she started rocking her hips as Kara unbuttoned her blouse. She pulled on Kara’s hair and the blonde stopped to breathe out her name in that special needy way that made Lena go weak and aroused at the same time.
Kara snaked her hands behind the CEO’s thighs and lifted her up, slowly making her way toward their bedroom without breaking their kissing. Lena was sucking on the blonde’s pulse point when Kara stopped dead in her track, tilting her head in confusion.
Lena frowned before looking behind her shoulder to see what was so interesting that Kara had frozen midstep. Her mouth slightly opened when she saw a hole of blue watery light in the middle of the room. Before she could ask her fiancé to let her down, someone emerged from the crack.
“Barry?” Kara asked confused, a smile slowly forming on her lips.
“Kara! I…” Barry took a step forward then stopped when he realized the position they were in. He quickly put his hand in front of his eyes, blushing as he saw Lena’s blouse open. He turned around, looking at the floor. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t want to interrupt…”
Kara didn’t seem to catch up with what was happening so Lena cleared her throat, trying to compose herself. “Honey, you should put me down now.” The raven-haired woman would never mind being in Kara’s strong arms but they had a visitor... As soon as her feet touched the wooden floor, she hurriedly buttoned her blouse.
At the gesture, the superhero finally snapped out of her daze and started blushing furiously. “Barry, I’m sorry ….uh, I… we…”
“No, no,” Even though he wasn’t facing them, the boy shook his head rapidly. “I’m the one who’s sorry. You were clearly having a nice evening and I just crashed it.”
Suddenly something clicked in Lena’s mind and she realized who the man standing in their living room was. “Wait, you’re Kara’s friend from the other earth?”
Barry turned around slowly, as if afraid of what he could see before smiling softly at the two women in front of him. “That would be me.”
The blonde looked at them wide eyes. “Oh, Golly, I’m being rude,” She put her hand on Lena’s back and pulled her closer. “Let me introduce you. Barry this is my girlfriend, I mean, my fiancé Lena,” She blushed, still not used to how nice it sounded. “Lena, this is Barry Allen, my friend from earth 1.”
“Nice to finally meet you, Kara told me a lot about you.” The Flash said warmly.
The CEO offered her hand to shake but Barry ignored it and simply hugged her. She was surprised but quickly tried to shake it off. “Oh, you’re a hugger like Kara… Alright.” She patted his back. “It’s nice to meet you too.” She had heard a lot of stories from Kara since they started dating about different earths and Kara’s super friends but she had never met them, at least until today.
“I’m sorry to meet you like this but we have a bit of a situation and…”
“It’s alright.” The raven-haired woman waved it off. “Earth or well earths I guess, always need saving. Besides, I have the rest of my life to enjoy this one.” She kissed Kara’s cheek and smiled when the girl blushed. “I’ll make us some tea and you two can talk.”
The blonde watched Lena leave with fondness in her eyes before turning her attention to Barry. “So what’s up? Another alien invasion?”
“A god actually!” Barry answered.
“I’m sorry, what?”
“Savitar, the God of speed,” The man explained. “He’s powerful as you can guess and no matter what I try I can’t seem to be able to defeat him. I thought I did once but he’s back… I asked another friend from another earth to help but we’re still powerless. I thought that if we could combine our powers we could once and for all get rid of him.”
Lena came back and put the mugs on the coffee table. She handed Barry and Kara theirs before settling in the chair on the opposite side of the couch, silently listening to their conversation.
“Thanks, babe.” The blonde smiled at her fiancé before looking back at Barry. “Do you have a plan yet?”
“I thought we could figure all this out together. I gathered a few people from the Super gang.” Barry smiled proudly, happy to see Kara and his friends back together even though it was for another fight.
Kara giggled. “The Super gang, we’re a thing now?”
The man chuckled “So it seems…”
The superhero looked at Lena and wrangled her eyebrows. “I’m in a gang now.” She winked.
Lena burst out laughing. “My-my, what a bad girl you are.”
They all laughed before making a bit of small talk while finishing their tea.
Kara finished texting Alex about the situation and stood up from the couch. “I’ll pack a few things and we can go.” She looked at Lena. “Babe, come and help me?”
“Of course.” The CEO stated with a smile, excusing herself to Barry before following her fiancé toward their bedroom.
The blonde grabbed a duffel bag and put a few clothes in it before throwing it on the bed. She looked at her lover and sighed. “Does it make me a bad person if a part of me just wants to stay here with you?”
Lena laughed and pulled Kara against her. “Oh darling, of course not, it just makes you very much human.”
The superhero pouted. “I’m gonna miss you. I promise we’ll have our date night as soon as I’m back.” She crossed her heart.
“You’re adorable.” The raven-haired woman kissed Kara’s nose. “I’m going to miss you too.” She kissed Kara’s neck, jaw, chin before kissing her lovingly on the lips. “Now go be a hero, I’ll be there when you come back.”
“You know, every time you say that, I feel like I’m a knight from the Middle Ages and you’re the princess waiting for me to come back from the battlefield.” Kara joked.
The CEO chuckled. “Don’t worry my dear, your princess will welcome you back with all the love you deserve.”
The blonde smiled goofily. “Good.” She kissed Lena tenderly. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”
Lena was left alone with a promise of a regular update through the portal. However the update never came and after three days without news, she started to worry. After a long talk with Alex who reassured her that the DEO was trying to locate Kara, Lena decided to take the matter into her own hands and find a way to contact Kara. She refused to just wait and do nothing, it wasn’t her.
Along the years, the CEO had studied the device to travel between all earths and had been able to replicate it partially, unlike the DEO which had postponed their research on the subject for more pressing matters. Kara knew and agreed that if something happened, it would never hurt to have their own version of the device. It was just a prototype, far from being finished but she didn’t really have a choice. It wasn’t like Kara to be MIA and it only meant something important must have happened.
For two days, the raven-haired woman worked non-stop on the device. It didn’t have to be perfect, it just had to work and she could improve it later on. She had hoped Kara would be back by then, but it was still radio silence. She understood that time could work differently and it might only be a couple of days since Kara left to visit the other earth but, if even Alex was starting to worry, it was a good enough reason to act.
The next day, Lena woke up early, ready to test the travel device. She called her secretary, telling her she would be off the grid for a few days before calling Alex to tell her what she was about to do. Of course, the agent told her it was too dangerous but Lena ignored her. By the time Alex would be at her house, she would already be gone.
The CEO took a deep breath, it was the moment of truth. The device could work or she could end up God knows where. But Kara was worth it, she would always be. She smoothed her blouse and wiped her sweaty hands on her black slacks. She was a Luthor, she could do this.
Lena pressed the button of the remote device and suddenly, a portal open. She took another deep breath, focusing her thoughts on Kara and with a decisive nod to herself, she jumped.
When Lena arrived on the other side, she stumbled a bit on her heels. She blinked a few times, trying to focus on her surroundings. She was in some sort of hanger, 4 people sitting at a table staring at her. There were two blondes, a brunette and a bulky bald man.
Before the CEO could say anything, the blonde in the white leather outfit spoke. “Well, hello lady.”
“Some fine women this travel portal bring us every time, I should definitely…” The man started before the blonde put her hand on his mouth to silence him.
“What can I do for you, babe, you seem lost?” The blonde asked once she was in front of her.
Lena straightened her back and raised her eyebrow. “I’m looking for Supergirl?”
“Skirt?” The man said surprised.
“And you are?” The blonde questioned intrigued.
“Lena Luthor, her fiancé.” The CEO stated.
“Well damn!” The other blonde with glasses exclaimed. “I wasn’t expecting that!”
The man chuckled. “Skirt got herself a hottie, who thought miss innocent had game.”
The brunette rolled her eyes. “Shut up!”
“I’m sorry, who are you?” Lena inquired, arching a questioning eyebrow in the man’s direction.
“I’m Heat Wave, or Mick but you can call me whatever you’d like, sweetheart.”
The CEO looked at him up and down. “As tempting as it sounds, I’ll pass.” Her voice was full of sarcasm.
The blonde with glasses stood up and cleared her throat. “So hum, okay, let me introduce you to everyone. This is Mick as you know now.” She pointed at the other blonde who winked at Lena. “Sara. Next to Mick is Thea.” The brunette waved with a small smile. “And I’m Felicity.” She finished.
“Hello everyone.” The raven-haired woman smiled politely before becoming serious. “Now, I don’t mean to be rude but since we’re done with the introduction maybe one of you could tell me where my fiancé is?”
Silence.
“Alright, where is Barry then?” Lena continued.
Silence.
“Can someone say something?!” The CEO snapped as silence settled again.
