Synopsis for "Last Daughters"

The world has been surrounded by a poisonous cloud which blocks the sunlight for many years. During her travels, Kara Zor-El finds the remains of a convoy ambushed by scavengers. The only survivor is one little child who was saved thanks to her parents dropping her behind the caravan when they realized they were about to get killed. Kara adopts her.

Two years later, Kara is climbing Mount Denali carrying her daughter Lucy on her back. The toxic fumes that poisoned everyone else in the world are poisoning Lucy, too. Nevertheless, she heard a rumor that the peak of Denali is above the radioactive cloud. Kara tries to make her way to the top of the mountain, but it is a very long and hard climb. Kara collapses near the top, thinking she is about to die, when Lucy finds a patch of snow touched by a sunbeam.

Kara places herself in the sunlight's path and feels strong enough to keep climbing again. She and her daughter reach the summit above the clouds, and Kara feels her powers returning. Kara flies Lucy to the Fortress of Solitude, where her cousin's still functional rocket rests.

Kara uses the Fortress' systems to find a planet where Lucy will be safe, but Lucy doesn't want go anywhere without her. Kara remembers what it felt like when her own father sent her away, and decides she can't leave Lucy alone. Both of them manage to fit inside the rocket, even though it is risky, and the last daughters of Krypton and Earth streak into space together.
