Won't Let You Down (Book Two of The Unmatched Records)

Chapter Nineteen

Cisco was in her pod, pretending he was flying it, Felicity and Curtis grinning widely as Iris snapped photos, the rest of the Earth-1 gang laughing as well. "I'm givin' her all she's got, Cap'n!" he shouted, and even Oliver face palmed, unable to keep from grinning. "The ship can't take much more of this!"

"The pod's shut down, Cisco!" Kara called.

He yelped and hastily tried to get out. "Sorry!" he called, eyes wide. "Sorry! I knew it was yours, but . . . well . . . "

"Hey, you helped save my life," Kara shook her head. "It's cool."

"Oh, good," Cisco relaxed as Iris walked over, giggling as she swiped through her photos. "I thought you might kill me."

"No," Wally smirked, checking Iris's photos. "If anyone's gonna kill you, it'll be Harry."

He pouted at her. "Thanks, Iris."

"Hey," Clark smiled at Kara.

"Hey," she grinned back before hugging him.

"Oh, it's good to see you up," he smiled. "You had everyone worried."

"Yeah, why were you up so quickly?" she pouted.

"I wasn't attacked with Kryptonite nearly ever day the past month," Clark pointed out. Kara stuck her tongue out at him, which made him laugh. "I need to return to Metropolis, but damn, it was good to be here when Cadmus fell." He kissed her temple and whispered, "And don't let that man go for anything."

"I won't," Kara smiled shyly, kissing his cheek.

"Needless to say, if you hurt her, I'll kill you," Clark added cheerfully to Oliver, holding out his hand.

"You'd probably beat the line," Oliver conceded, shaking his hand. "Good to meet you."

Clark nodded, then took off, flying out of the D.E.O. "I still can't believe there's two of you," Dig told Kara.

"Man, you gotta get used to it at some point," Rene gave him a look.

"Oh, now I don't know what to do," Kara sighed, almost pouting. "I don't have Cadmus to worry about now."

"I've got a suggestion," Lena smirked.

"And keep them coming, M'gann!" Kara smiled as the entire group crowded the alien bar.

"You got it," M'gann smiled, nodding.

"Now this was a team-up," Cisco said in immense satisfaction as shots were passed around.

"Cadmus was way smarter than the Dominators," Felicity agreed.

"Oh, I never want to run into those again," Thea grimaced.

"Never met them, and I don't think I want to," Laurel frowned.

"You don't," Oliver snorted. "Mind control sucks."

"You weren't under it!" came three protests around the table.

"Oh, it doesn't get much better than this!" Winn sighed with a smile.

"I kind of don't want to leave," Iris admitted.

"But no rest for the wicked," Dinah sighed.

"Which means no rest for us," Curtis nodded.

"Well, for what you've done to help us with Cadmus, you are all welcome to return to our Earth if you ever need to," J'onn told them.

"Good," Alex grinned. "More company for girls nights!"

"And it's fair to say you're all invited to the wedding," Maggie added with a grin.

"How could we refuse?" Oliver smiled.

"Carefully," Malcolm suggested cheekily, only to choke into his glass.

Everyone looked from Malcolm to Laurel, who was swirling her shot around, watching him choke as she lowered her hand from where she'd hit him on the back of the head. "Watch it," she warned, making Oliver, Kara, Slade, and Thea go into hysterics.

"Shut up!" Malcolm groaned.

"Make us!" Slade practically cackled.

"Yeah? Maybe I will!"

"I'm going to miss this," Kara admitted with a smile.

"Well, I'm certain we'll be seeing you quite often in Star City now," Dig said with a smirk.

"I should hope so," Oliver raised an eyebrow at her.

"As long as I see you often here in National City," Kara compromised.

"We'll work it out," he promised, making her smile.

"Mmm!" Cisco perked up suddenly, holding up a finger as he put his shot down. "That reminds me!" He looked through his jacket pockets before holding up a small box and sliding it across the table. "So you don't need to call me every time you want to hop universes."

Oliver's eyes lit up as he took the box and opened it up, revealing another one of the interdimensional extrapolators. "Thank you, Cisco," he smiled, Kara squealing in delight.

"Of course, man," Cisco waved it off. "You got the girl, only right I help you get the chance to see her when you can."

"Bad guys out of the way, the heroes get their happy ending," James tilted his head back and forth. "Bit fairytale."

"Only a bit of time before someone else tries to get in our way," Oliver nodded.

"Well, they can try," Kara grinned smugly at him. "We're unmatchable, the two of us."

Oliver chuckled, wrapping an arm around her shoulders. "That we are."

"Well," Alex raised her shot, smirking. "To us completely decimating the devil incarnate."

"To all the lovebirds around the table," Thea teased, making Winn and Felicity laugh.

Oliver rolled his eyes fondly, but Kara smiled at him. "To life being happy," she offered.

Oliver smiled and nodded, remembering what he had told Barry after the Dominator invasion. "To life being full," he offered his own toast.

"Cheers," Dig nodded.

The members of Team Supergirl (Kara, Alex, Maggie, Winn, James, Lena, and J'onn), Team Arrow (Oliver, Thea, Dig, Slade, Malcolm, Laurel, Felicity, Curtis, Rene, Dinah, Nyssa, and Quentin), and Team Flash (Iris, Cisco, and Wally) all clinked their glasses together, drinking at the same time. "You know, Felicity, I'm gonna need to correct you on something," Kara looked up at her. When she tilted her head in confusion, Kara gestured around the table. "This is the best team-up ever."

Murmurs of agreement came from around the table, and Kara leaned into Oliver as he kissed the top of her head. He couldn't agree more. He had come to this universe expecting to help a friend, arguably his closest besides Barry and his team. Now he was coming away with allies from another universe, and said friend was now a girlfriend he loved to death, and his son wasn't that far behind him.

Yes, he decided, leaning down to kiss Kara. Definitely the best team-up ever.
