Weld furrowed his brow slightly as he watched Caitlin; he glanced at Supergirl for a moment and made a shrug before following Frost in the direction of the warehouse. He had no trouble keeping even steps with her; the cold air around her did not bother his metal body. "I did not get any reply from Bats," he said to Caitlin once they had some distance from Michael. "I mean, sure, she's a loner, but I have a bad feeling." "And here I aimed to take off your head," Said Deathstroke, the one visible eyes gleaming inside his mask. "Not bad." However, he was not done and quickly followed the initial attack by pulling the sword back and assaulting Batgirl with a combo of slashes. "A bat all alone, classic. Not trusting your little hero friends and the super cousin?" He said, aiming to keep her off balance, put her on the defensive, and give little room for retaliation. "Good, I'd keep it that way." Slade knew well how to get under the skin of others; he'd been watching her for a while now and had a pretty good understanding of the looners Batman seemed keen on collecting. Still, he was not one to underestimate the bat brats; if the big man had trained her, she would hopefully provide at least some entertainment.

She hit a nerve. Many years ago, Kara would've likened his frustration to something unique to humans. But she knew how that felt all too well know. Still, she found his reaction to be bad form. Suspicion was natural, particularly in their line of work. Granted, the man must've been exhausted from not being able to solve this. Kara took a moment to listen to his heartbeat. Underneath all that protective anger, Michael was anxious. She wasn't a full expert in reading such things, but Clark had taught her enough. "The fact that you haven't thought of that possibility worries me. But you're under a lot of stress, so I will ignore your lashing out. Again."Her gaze left him, looking for Frank. Nowhere to be seen. There were a lot of outfits at the scene, even her X-Ray vision couldn't pinpoint him immediately. Just before he left, she did pick up those few words from his earpiece. "Not leaving" and "understood" were what sounded relatively clear. Damn it. He knew something. Kara offered an affirming nod to Weld, the latter having already followed Caitlin. With this Frank being a clear suspect, Kara took a step closer to Michael, speaking to him in hushed tones. "Your guy was saying something on his comms. He was talking to someone else, someone not here, from what I could gather. Find him, quietly. Something's not right."At this point, Kara didn't care if Michael would protest. Her tone was authoritative enough that he would probably listen to her. Maybe. If not, then he'd prove himself to be even more combative than she already thought. Having said her peace, Kara moved past him, releasing herself from the ground. She rose above everyone, scanning for both anomalies and Batgirl. Moments later, her eyes widened, spotting two figures a ways away from her, on one of the upper levels. Kara had heard what Weld had said, prompting her next order to be heard by both Weld and Frost. "I found Batgirl, she's with someone. I'll handle it. You two keep looking around and keep an eye on Michael and his men, one of them isn't who he says he is."With her orders relayed, Kara rose further up and in what seemed to be a brief gust of wind and the blink of an eye, she was behind Slade, eyes glowing, ready to strike. She wanted to avoid a direct scuffle, but was more than aware it wouldn't be an option. Still, if she could stall him enough for the others to find the suspected mole, that would be ideal. "You weren't invited, Wilson. Leave."
