Supergirl is bored in the Fortress

Kara, or Supergirl as most knew her, was bored in the Fortress of Solitude, her cousin Superman's strange and isolated arctic base. She really didn't enjoy staying here (talk about dull!), but her cousin insisted she stay and monitor the intergalactic transmissions for distress calls.

"While I help earth, I need you to help the galaxy" Clark said, in his condescending, smug yet naive tone.

Even remembering his words made Kara roll her eyes. He was such a goody two shoe try hard! Anyways, she'd agreed, and now was stuck bored out of her skull. So when the intergalactic radio clicked to life, she leaped up in her seat.

"Mayday, mayday!" Came the helpfully translated voice. "Our planet is under threat! Proxima Centari C! Help us, please!"

Kara leaped up. Centari wasn't that far, one of the closest stars. If she flew there as fast as she could, she'd be there in less than an hour! And it would get her off this dull monitoring duty! So she grasped the radio and held it to her face.

"I'm on my way!" She declared.

Then she shook her blonde hair out of her face and crouched, readying for take off. At this Krypto her dog sat up with a curious noise.

"Stay Krypto!" She commanded. "I'll be back by dinner!"

Then, in a bolt of blue, she flew out of the Fortress faster than the eye could follow...
