章 20: Intruder
-------
"The things I do for you, Kara," Alex muttered under her breath, getting out of the car.
Several of the DEO agents had followed the CEO to her apartment building and had informed her that Lena did have Kara with her. After battling herself as to how she would go on about it, Alex decided she would go up by herself but would keep agents ready to act as backup.
Damn Kara and her pout.
She still kept her weapons and had her fake FBI ID ready.
"I'm going in. Be ready if anything occurs," She spoke into her earpiece. She heard multiple voices respond affirmative.
She walked up the stairs of the fancy-looking building and opened the entrance. She walked further in, looking around the check-in area. She walked up to the empty front desk.
"Hello?" Alex called out. She felt tense all of a sudden when she heard breathing. The agent leaned over the wide desk to see a man dressed in a uniform underneath the desk, unconscious.
She quickly made her way over the desk and looked over the unconscious man. She quickly noticed an injection site near the man's neck. "Drugged," Alex muttered under her breath. She stood up and looked over the desk, noticing it looked messy, papers pushed aside carelessly. She looked towards the computer, reading what was on it.
It was a document filled with the names of its residents and visitors. From what she could understand, all of the people were out.
Except for Lena Luthor, who lived on the 15th floor.
"I found a man drugged underneath the front desk. Did any of you see someone enter?" Alex spoke quietly into her earpiece, jumping over the desk. She looked towards the elevator, noticing that it seemed off. She walked close to it, pressing a button. It did nothing. The power to the elevator was definitely off. She walked over to the emergency stairs and pulled out her weapon. She opened the emergency door and peeked up. Empty.
"Negative, Agent," Agent Leon spoke up.
Alex inwardly cursed. "Secure the lobby. Look over the drugged man and locate the security guards. All of the residents are out now except Ms. Luthor who lives on the 15th floor. The elevator is out of power, so take the stairs once you finish scouring the lobby. I'm going ahead."
"Affirmative."
Alex made her way up the numerous stairs.
----------------------------------------
Lena felt herself be pushed onto the floor, clenching her eyes when she felt her head bounce off the wooden floors. She could distinctly hear Kara barking.
A gloved hand pressed down on her throat, choking her. Through bleary eyes, all she could see were goggles and smoke.
"Apologies for the surprise, Ms. Luthor. I couldn't help myself. However, I did knock," a rough, distorted voice spoke. A surprised yell escaped them when Kara lunged at their left arm, clamping down harshly, attaching herself to the intruder's arm.
The intruder stood up, frantically grasping at the puppy's jaw. Kara kept on growling, not letting go.
"Dammit, get off!" A bit of red dripped onto the wooden floor.
