"Admiral, you need to see this."
A blond haired male spoke to thin air, acting almost as if the admiral stood right behind him and looked over his shoulder. He turned his head around to see no such thing. That didn't deter his eagerness to report this new find. Realising he didn't activate the intercom system, he tapped a button on the side of his panel.
A tall bald nan flicked through his data-pad, sorting through an abundance of information that seemed to flood out from his entire screen. The device had a mirror-like surface that reflected his face. He had the long vertical scar across his left eye which he had gotten in the battle. The man's his battle-hardened black eyes were darting left and right across his data-pad. He satisfied alone in his dimly lit quarters with nothing but the dim white glow of his lamp.
"Admiral, I require your attention in the observatory." The intercom interrupted his quite reading.
The Admiral's head turned away from the screen. He stood from his seat and readjusted his dark blue uniform, re-imagining his time as a cadet when his old drill Sergeant used to yell and bark behind his neck. As he stood, the lights above reactivated and illuminated the room with sudden brightness. It felt unreasonably uncomfortable when his iris contracted from the sudden light. The man shielded his eyes until they automatically readjusted themselves. Built adjacent to his quarters was an elevator. With a monotone beep, he slowly ascended up to the level of the observatory.
"Admiral, your presence is needed at the observatory." The voice bounced around the small room.
The elevator slowed at it reached at the level. Once the elevator door opened, the admiral stepped out and into a busy center. Dozens upon dozens of men and women sat along orderly rows facing the wall, completely immersed with their work, their fingers constantly tapping on their holographic keyboards. Several soldiers were patrolling the pathway.
One patrol stumbled upon the admiral; out of discipline and respect, they stood there like a stiff board and saluted. He gave the same to them.
"As you were."
They continued their patrol as the admiral strolled along the observatory. Ahead of him stood two back to back seats that were suspended in mid-air with massive holographic screens hovering around them.
"You called for me, John?" He asked, holding his hands behind his back. He glanced at the blue hologram laid out in front of him.
"You may want to take a look at this, Admiral," John tapped against several buttons on his holographic interface, "Our sensors have detected a mysterious object heading towards Earth." John continuously tapped on his terminal, enlarging the map for the admiral to examine closer. A single pulsing bright dot caught the admiral's attention. "Maya."
"Yes." The red haired woman tapped one of the controls over her holographic control panel. A silver spherical object appeared on the main viewscreen. It looked like a large metallic tennis ball set on fire. Maya frowned as she read the data that appeared on her desk viewscreen. "Computer estimates the object to be approximately five feet in length. Some sort of distortion is preventing an accurate mass measurement I'm afraid."
Admiral narrowed his eyes, "Not another alien attack," he shook his head, trying to repress his memory away. "May, lock on target. I want know where that damm thing is heading."
"Yes, Admiral," May said, her fingers flew across the holographic keyboard.
"Admiral," John called, catching his senior's attention, "we have a major problem."
Admiral watched a strange black substance half way through John's one of holographic screen, slowly eating away rest of holographic screens. "What's going on?"
May's fingers danced across holographic keys. "I don't ... Something... Something is attempting to sabotage our defence system." Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead. "Impossible... It has... It has blasted through all our firewalls."
"It is in our defence network," John said, furiously typing keys to get any possible data. Strange symbols started scrolling across all over holographic screen. "It's hacked into every intern network. It's like as if they were looking for someone...or something."
Admiral scowled deeply as he looked up at the holographic screens. All screens had replaced by a red symbol he had never seen before. The symbol had four concentric circles in a ripple pattern with nine commas like marking in the three circles closest to the centre. Slowly, more started to appear, covering all of the screens. "Can we stop it?"
"Every time we try, it speed the search up. It's like that someone is trying to infect our systems with some kind of a virus," John said, his hands were moving across keys.
"It's like nothing we've ever seen before," May said, trying to stop that thing from taking over their system. "It keeps growing and changing, like it has a mind of its own."
Damn! Admiral thought, watching the last screen turned red before the symbol appeared once again, right in front of him. Only this time it was much bigger. A quick look around showed the same symbol behind him and to his left and right.
...oOo...
The mysteries spacecraft gained more and more speed, and eventually entered the Earth's atmosphere. It started to glow from the friction and started falling faster and faster. It descended towards the world's coldest continent, Antarctica. The spacecraft completely tore through an ice shelf and crashed onto the ground with a large explosion. The impact shook the entire area, causing large cracks to appear in the ice and sending snow flying.
A moment later, the space pod slowly hissed open as a black fingerless glove with a metal gauntlet came out, grasping the side of the pod and pulling himself up. He stood up nearly six feet tall. His face and body were hidden by the dark cloak he wore, the only discernible feature being two heterochromia eyes—one blood-red and other purple—which glowed from under his hood. The man levitated up out of the crater. Looking at his ship, he waved his hand lazily. The space pod shrunk down to the same size as a marble and flung towards him. It placed itself perfectly in his palm.
"It's been log time since I've visited this planet," the mysterious man said, mostly himself. He put the marble that was once his spaceship in one of the pouch that strapped to his right thigh.
The space above the man ripped like a sheet of paper. The portal was dark, empty void, a gap in reality. The darkness behind it seemed unending, impenetrable even by the harsh, blinding white of Aperture's lighting. The ethereal portal swallowed the man up, and its dark surface closed behind him.
...oOo...
"All I am trying to say is that it hacked our firewall in ten seconds. Even a supercomputer, with a brute force attack, would take twenty years to do that," John said, reading the data on the holographic screen.
"The hacker has also wiped out all data of that mysterious object," May informed.
Admiral gritted his teeth, clearly unsure of what to do in a situation like this. He knew one thing for sure. There was no way he would let whoever did this slip out of his grip.
...oOo...
"So this is Metropolis city."
The same mysteries man was standing on top of the tallest buildings in the city of Metropolis. The man paused for a moment before removing his hood, revealing his pale blond hair and a diamond like blue mark on his forehead. He was tall, handsome, and muscle-bound but with a lean, athletic build.
His cloak was billowing in the wind, showing his black armour with red stripes. He was wearing a black sleeveless top and a black pant, which were visible. His armor consisted of shoulder armor and chest plate. The plates made of the same materials as his armour were attached to the sides of his pants and on his black ninja tabi boots. There was a beautiful green crystal necklace hanging around his neck that had been made from a special Crystal Gem.
"I-I-I don't get logic behind (your, your) your a-a-action, Master Naruto," An feminine voice said to his right. Her words were accompanied by stuttering, fluctuating voice pitch, shifts of timbre, and the presence of three voices speaking the same words with the constituent voices alternately lagging behind and leading ahead, as well as computer glitches resembling a sound card malfunction. The voice continued, "The last time when—"
Naruto cut in, "The Earth is much different than the last time, SHODAN." He turned his head right to see a semi-transparent figure.
SHODAN (Sentient Hyper-Optimized Data Access Network) was an artificial intelligence. She stood five feet four inch tall and appeared to be a humanoid female of medium athletic build with grey skin decorated with patterns of darker grey, thin layers of translucent turquoise plastic, and fiber optics which overall resemble circuitry and solid-state circuit boards. She lacked any simulation of body hair except for a fan-shaped series of fibre optic and wires set over a grouping of blue-violet conduits modeled to resemble thick braids that led down the back of her neck. Her fiber-optic eyebrows trailed back into this fan-shaped 'hair,' and her neck was covered by series of blue-violet conduits resembling an African ring-necklace. Her eyes (with slitted cat-like pupils) and her fiber-optics was glowing the same color green—it would change with her emotional state. Being anatomically incorrect, she only wore a purple elbow-length short cape underneath an Egyptian-style broad necklace.
"I seek adventure. Believe It or not, right now Earth is centre of all of everything happening in Universe." Naruto said. Taking a pause, he looked down. He saw the busy streets filled with people, busses, cars, and so much more. "I'm also interested in Earth's mightiest heroes."
Earth's Heroes were really were very famous in the other galaxies, especially Superman and Batman. Even though both fight for good. They were polar opposites. Superman was of the day; Batman was of the night and the shadows. Superman was an alien with incredible powers; Batman was human with no-superpower.
"M-m-my sensors has (picked) picked up a p-p-p-powerful life-form," SHODAN informed.
Naruto could also sense a powerful life-force quickly approaching and then a man in blue-red costume zoomed past them.
"It is a bird... It is a plane... No, It is Superman!"Naruto smirked as the man in blue flew towards the north section of the city. "Today is my lucky day." He let himself fall forward, free falling towards the ground.
SHODAN watched her master disappear into his dimension portal. Her body glowed before she dissolved into thousands of particles of green light.
...oOo...
Superman had reached in time to help Supergirl to stop the bank robbery. Both cousins seemed to be doing fine as they were handing the hi-tech bank robbers very well. They had already taken care of robber's armoured trucks that were smoking. Superman crashed in and blocked the bullets from robbers. The bullets merely bounced off his Kryptonian skin. The blonde cousin of Superman was not much behind him, proving not to be a slouch when it came to socking bad guys in jaws.
Superman heard as the last robber had been knocked out. "Well, that was fun," Supergirl said sarcastically.
Superman went to pick up robbers when two green beams smashed into him, and he was sent flying back into one of the armored truck.
"Superman!"
Supergirl called out to her cousin's name in shock. She turned to find out who had attacked them, but she got her own answer when another pair of green beams came toward her direction. She managed to fly up, but the shooter hit her with another beams and she too hit the ground hard and fast
Seeing both Super siblings down, the shooter came out from the hiding. He was definitely different. He had a torn human face, yet the rest of him was all metal, wires, and a lot of other glowing parts.
"Metallo," Supergirl said in disbelief, her eyes wide and filled with fear.
Metallo was an enemy of Superman. Formerly a human criminal named John Corben, he was now merely a brain within a robotic body, which was powered by his Kryptonite heart. Kryptonite was produced from the material of the remains of Superman's native planet of Krypton. It was only thing that could hurt super cousins.
Metallo walked toward Supergirl. The blonde Heroine began to sweat. Her body had already weaken because of the Kryptonite radiation.
Metallo looked down, beaming his glowing green eyes at Supergirl. "This is your end!" he said as he was ready to fire another blast.
"Not while I'm here," Superman shouted, after recovering from the blast. Man of steel flew straight at the villain punching him hard on his chest, throwing him away from his cousin.
"You don't want to do this, Metallo." Superman said.
Metallo pushed away the rubbles that fell on top of him. "You are wrong Superman. I do want this." He said and opened his chest to revel the Kryptonite.
Immediately, Superman felt his strength begin to falter. He came down on the ground and tried to shield himself from the stone's radiation. But Metallo gave him no chance. He ran at Superman and tackled him to the ground. Superman felt very weak being so close to the Kryptonite. He couldn't do anything when Metallo begin to pummel him repeatedly.
The villain pulled Superman on his feet by the front of his uniform and then delivered a massive uppercut to the hero's chin sending him flying to the sky. Being exposed to the Kryptonite and receiving several punishment from Metallo, the hero became weak. He helplessly, crashed down on the ground making a small crater. Superman slowly opened his eyes only to see Metallo's boots coming towards his face. The villain stomped the hero's face repeatedly until he made Superman groan from pain.
"What's the matter hero? Feeling rather weak?" Metallo mocked Superman.
"Get away from him!" Supergirl shouted, firing her heat vision. The blast carried Metallo away from Superman.
"Good timing." Superman said with a tired smile. He slowly got on his feet with the help of his cousin. "You know that's not going to stop him."
Supergirl said, "I know."
Supergirl only just finished her answer and at that time Metallo charged again. Supergirl was able to swiftly fly away from Metallo, unfortunately Superman couldn't as he was already very weak and tired. A powerful punch against the hero's jaw threw him away.
"Superman!" Supergirl watched the villain send her cousin skipping down the road, the concrete chipping away with each smack across the ground before he slid to a stop at the end of the street.
Before Supergirl could help the man of steel, Kryptonite beams struck her from behind sending her crashing to the pavement, forming a large crater. The blonde heroine managed to stand but her legs seemed to rebel against the idea of holding her weight. Her vision was blurred and nausea gripped her stomach. She knew these symptoms all too well. Supergirl glanced up and sure enough, Metallo had opened his chest panel revealing his cumbersome kryptonite heart.
"Wonderful..." Supergirl muttered to herself as she could hear the increase of energy from his kryptonite heart.
"Goodbye, Girl." Metallo fired a Kryptonite beam at the blonde heroine.
A dark shape passed over Metallo's head. It redirected the Kryptonite blast sending it back at the surprised cyborg in a huge explosion. Supergirl lifted her head to look up. She could see a man in all black with spiky white hair, he was pretty tall. He had his back facing her. He turned his head, showing his metallic mask with a single opening large enough to reveal his purple right eyes.
"Are you alright?" He asked.
Supergirl nodded her head, not saying anything else. From his voice, she could tell that he wasn't much older than her.
"Who the hell are you?" Metallo said angrily, throwing away the rubbles that fell on top of him.
"Who me—" The masked hero pointed a thumb at himself. He then pointed at the blonde heroine "—or she?"
"I know who she is. I'm taking about you," Metallo said, angrily. This new hero was so annoying, more annoying than Flash.
"I am Nobody," The masked man said in childish tone. "but I want to be somebody."
If Metallo had real eyes, it would have widened as voice came from behind him. The voice was so cold, it was lacking all childness that it had held before.
