You will travel far, my little Kal-El. But we will never leave you... even in the face of our death. The richness of our lives shall be yours. All that I have, all that I've learned, everything I feel... all this, and more, I... I bequeath you, my son. You will carry me inside you, all the days of your life. Read and Review!

1. Trial on Krypton

"This is no fantasy," Izuku-El, lead Kryptonian scientist, said as he waved his wand at 3 prisoners in black. " no careless product of wild imagination. No, my good friends." He continued. "These indictments I have brought you today, specific charges listed herein against the individuals - their acts of treason, their ultimate aim of sedition... These are matters of undeniable fact. I ask you now to pronounce judgment on those accused…" He turned towards a man with dead skin on some of his body. "On this... this mindless aberration," He began, motioning towards Dabi, "whose only means of expression are wanton violence and destruction." He continued walking before stopping in front of a girl with blonde hair and a psychotic smile on her face. " On the woman Toga," He said, "whose perversions and unreasoning yandere behaviour towards all of mankind have threatened even the children of the planet Krypton." Toga Hu-Ul grinned, showing her large canines. He turned towards a man with leaden blue hair and red eyes. "Finally, General Zod - once trusted by this council, charged with maintaining the defense of the planet Krypton itself. Chief architect of this intended revolution, and author of this insidious plot to establish a new order amongst us - with himself as absolute ruler." He turned towards the council, "You have heard the evidence. The decision of the council will now be made."

"Guilty," The council said simultaneously as their faces disappeared. Now it was just Izuku-El and the prisoners.

"The vote must be unanimous, Izuku-El," Zod spoke. "It has therefore now become your decision. You alone will condemn us if you wish, and you alone will be held responsible by me."

Izuku-El was silent for a moment until he waved his wand. It flashed with a hum, indicating that their fate was sealed.

"Join us," Zod demanded. Izuku-El turned around slowly walked away. "You have been known to disagree with the council before. Yours could become an important voice in the new order, second only to my own! I offer you a chance for greatness, Izuku-El! Take it! Join us!" Izuku-El didn't even bother turning around.

I've seen the likes of your new order, too many times before. And I know only too much about what you call "greatness". Izuku-El thought as he continued to walk away.

"You will bow down before me, Jor-El!" Zod continued, "I swear it! No matter if it takes an eternity," He started to shout in anger. "YOU WILL BOW DOWN BEFORE ME! BOTH YOU AND, ONE DAY, YOUR HEIRS!" At that point, it was just the 3 prisoners in the dome. The dome began to tip over until the prisoners showed. They saw a diamond shape in the distance. It began to come closer, and closer, and closer…..

"Forgive me!" Toga screamed as she, Zod, and Dabi were trapped in the crystalline prison that was known as The Phantom Zone.

"I shall return!" Zod screamed as he was carried away…..
