A/N: Well here we are, the beginning of the re-write of this story. And I promise this time I'll do my best to do monthly updates at least. I may become busy with school and work, but I promise I will try. Anyway, without further delay... Let the new story begin!

The crisp air of Metropolis brushed against Superman's face as he watched over his beloved city. The symbol of hope sighed peacefully, glad that today was a peaceful day. The sun shining brightly, empowering him with his great powers. He smiled. There hadn't been any trouble in Metropolis or in fact the world in over a year. Except for Gotham, but he knew Batman could handle that. The last major threat he or the Justice League had to face was an invasion of White Martians, after a fierce struggle and fight, they had come out on top. Sadly there has been some lives lost, their friend J'onn J'ozz, the Martian Manhunter had lost his life.

Kal-El was determined to avoid anything like that again. He didn't want another friend dying. Especially that his wife, Diana Prince, was pregnant with a baby girl. He had been ecstatic when she told him and now the baby was due any day. Both himself and Diana had been married for two years when she became pregnant, it wasn't planned, but it was a pleasant surprise.

A buzz went off to alert him of the League trying to contact him over the comm link. He put a finger to his ear to answer, "What's up?" He answered.

"Cyborg has found a ship entering our solar system, we don't know if it's a threat.. Thought you might want to go with Green Lantern to check it out." Came the voice of Batman, his best friend.

"Where is it right now?" He asked

"Just past Mars."

"Tell Hal I'm on my way." Superman replied as he took off into the sky was quickly in space, passing the Watchtower. He met with Hal Jordan, Green Lantern, just as he got to Mars.

"Hey Clark, it should be here any minute now."

"Let's hope it doesn't bring trouble."

With his superior sight, Superman could see the ship coming toward them. It was sphere, which confused him. It didn't appear to have any propulsion system and was just big enough for one person, but no room for comfort. Whatever was inside, was alone. "Stay here Hal. I'll intercept it."

Clark flew toward the pod and soon was beside it, flying alongside. He tried using his X-Ray vision to look inside but couldn't. Hmm lead compounds, he thought. He decided the best option was to just catch it. He put his hand out and stopped the pod from flying any further and carried back to Green Lantern. "Can you scan it for an ID?" Clark asked.

"Of course I can, hold on a sec." Hal replied as he scanned the pod with his ring. "Huh... Well this could be trouble. It's a pod belonging to the Planet Trade Organisation. Specifically, a Saiyan pod."

"What's the Planet Trade Organisation and what's a Saiyan?" Superman questioned.

"Well, the Planet Trade Organisation is a business that sends soldiers to different planets, kill the population and then sell it on the black market to the highest bidder. The leaders of the organisation The Cold family have been wanted for years by the Guardians, but they always seem to escape." Hal replied. Superman gritted his teeth in anger, he already hated this. The thing in the pod better pray it wasn't targeting Earth.

"And.. A Saiyan?" He asked.

"The Saiyans are a race of warriors that work under one of the Colds. Frieza. They thrive for a fight and their entire culture is based around fighting and conquest." Hal replied.

"Let's bring this to the Hall of Justice. There we can make sure it's contained." Clark said.

They headed back to Earth, Hal alerted Batman and Cyborg of what they're doing. Batman told them he and Cyborg would meet them there. They soon arrived at the Hall, Superman carrying the pod over his shoulder walked into the science sector of the Hall where Cyborg, Batman, Dr. Med-Nite and Flash waited. "So this is the pod?" Flash asked, Superman nodded as he placed it on the floor in front of them.

"Hal thinks it's an alien called a Saiyan. A member of a warrior race that kills civilisations and then sells those planets." Superman said. Batman's ever present scowl deepened.

"Vic, hack into the computer. See if there's a cryogenic system, knock out whatever's in there and we'll opened it up." Batman ordered. Vic nodded as wires came out of his hand and attached to the pod, scanning it's systems for the cryogenic sleep system.

"Guys, it's already active. Whatever's in there is already asleep. I'll open it up." Cyborg said as he once again scanned for a way to open the pod. Then with a puff of steam, the pod door opened. Everyone peered inside and saw a baby. It was wrapped in what seemed to be a regal cape with a symbol on it. The baby was asleep, he had short onyx black hair that was combed to one side and was also spiked. He was wearing a necklace that was obviously too big for him, it was most likely a memento from his parents.

"I found a message in the system, I'll play it." Cyborg said as suddenly a hologram of a beautiful woman appeared. She carried herself with confidence and had long flowing black hair that curled at the end. She was wearing the necklace that was around the baby and seemed to be wearing a similar cape. But she stilled seemed distressed

"Hello my little one... By the time you have watched this I and our people will be dead. Your father has reason to believe that Lord Frieza intends to destroy our planet. In order to keep you safe, we are sending you away... To a place that even Frieza can't reach you." Tears began to appear in the woman's eyes, "You may have a new family on whatever planet you end up on, but remember, the Saiyans are your true family and you are their Prince. We don't want you to live a life under the boot of a tyrant. Never forget your pride as a Saiyan warrior elite. As a Saiyan Royal. And no matter what name your new family have given you... Your true name is Rykon." With tears still flowing she still managed to have a serious look on her face.

"What I say now is directed to your new family. Take care of my little prince. Don't let him befall to the same fate as his people. Don't let his race die in vain... I'm sorry I cannot be there for you little one. One day, maybe, you will face that tyrant.. And you will show him... Show him what happens when you mess with a Saiyan..." The message cut to static and the hologram disappeared.

"Well... I don't think he's here to cause trouble.." Flash broke the silence. Batman grunted and picked the boy up, a tail drooped down.

"I'll take care of the boy, he will learn how to defend himself, he'll get a good education and he will-" Batman couldn't finish before Superman put a hand on his shoulder.

"He'll probably kill you by accident Bruce. Maybe Diana and I should take care of him, I mean... We're already having one.. Might give the baby a brother." Superman assured.

"Are you sure Diana would like that?" Flash asked, Kal thought for a moment.

"I'll call her, have her come over.. Judge for herself."

Superman contacted his wife to have her come over. Even heavily pregnant she managed to get over to the Hall quickly. She walked in, holding her belly, she wasn't wearing her Wonder Woman armour, settling for simple pants and a t-shirt. She still retained her beauty.

"Still not use to seeing you all... Pregnant." Flash piped up, Diana just chuckled and waved his comment off. She saw the baby asleep in Batman's arms who looked completely uncomfortable holding the child.

"Is this it, Clark? A child? You said it was something big..." She said, slightly agitated at the long trek while pregnant.

"Well... He's just come from a planet... One that was recently destroyed. He needs a family and I thought that maybe we could take him in. We're already prepped for a baby."

"Yes. ONE! Not two."

"Come on Diana, he needs a family... Someone to help him, guide him... Also he's from a warrior race. Like you. I think he may appreciate some training from you." Superman replied, hoping that may change her mind.

The baby stirred in Batman's arms and groggily opened his eyes, looking at his new surroundings for a second before his lip quivered and he began wailing. Superman slightly winced at the sound but adjusted. Batman held the baby at arms length, Diana rolled her eyes and took the child from him, rocking him quietly and soothing him. Rykon stopped crying and gurgled happily at her.

"OK Kal.. We'll take him in." Diana finally said. Rykon giggled and poked Diana's nose. Diana smiled at him, Superman did too.

Green Lantern finally piped up, "Well, I asked the ring a few things about Saiyans.. There's a few things you should know about Saiyans if you're gonna raise one. They have a natural ability to use Ki, so I'd watch out for that.. Maybe look for teachers for him to improve on that and control it. Also... You might wanna get A LOT of food.. Like a ton. Saiyans eat insane amounts. Finally, keep him out of the full moon. Saiyans turn into giant apes in the full moon that destroy everything."

Diana sighed a little, "OK.. We can do that. Can't we Kal?"

"Sure. Maybe we should take him home now.. Get to know him."

"First, what's his name Kal?"

"Rykon. His name is Rykon."
