Devil2024, Jennifer barata : Thank you :)

" So you came from another Eath? Earth that was destroyed by a cosmic entity? And are you Kryptonian? "Supergirl asks Deryel.

He was sitting in a gray room in front of a table, and in front of the table and there was John, a woman named Alex and Kara herself. He had a handcuff on his wrists And without the black mask that covered half of his face.

Deryel nodded a little low, He swallowed "Yes, my entire universe was destroyed and wiped out of existence, everyone and everything I knew is dead, I only came out alive because Another cosmic entity saved me and brought me here." he took a deep breath and looked at the three in front of him.

Alex then presses a button on the wall quickly and the lights change to red lights, red sun radiation, that would neutralize his powers.

He just watched her and she then came back to John and crossed her arms for him. "Caution," she says. Kara looks at her for a moment and then sighs and looks back at him.

Alex had a suspicious look on his face

"And how do we know your story is true? About the destruction of your Earth? As far as we know you can be an enemy" she asks and Deryel sighs.

"My Earth had other heroes, Just like me, Among those heroes was Superman, Batman and even you." He looks at Kara. She frowned a little "you are not the same as i met but you are still Kara Zor -el, and you are the hunter from Mars." he looks at John "i worked alongside you in my Earth , and i know my story is doubtful but i I swear I am telling the truth, And I promise you that I will do no harm to anyone innocent in this Earth, I am not an enemy. "He says with a serious look and John unfolds his arms.

"Even if that is true, you will have to stay here at DEO for a while as a precaution, do you understand?"

Deryel nodded "I understand, I am a complete stranger to you, Whatever you say I will fulfill, and I am sorry to have arrived like this in your land, I know I am an intruder here and-"

Kara interrupted him, She had a sympathetic look on him. "Intruder? No, no way, it's not a problem for you to be here. You lost a lot, you don't have to apologize for it, And I'm sorry for your loss, I know it shouldn't be easy to lose that much in a short time, We will help you with whatever you need ok. " She says and Deryel was touched by his words, he was a complete stranger. This Kara was not like the Kara he knew, she seemed to be more mature, she seemed to be different, and without a doubt she was. But there was something else about her that he couldn't decipher.

He smiled sadly "Thank you," he says and she nods with a serious look. And then he turns to Alex.

"Alex and John will take good care of you while you're here, I need to go." she says and looks back at him "one thing i didn't ask, your name is deryel, but what's your last name? if you don't mind me asking, you said you came from krypton from earth 7, then you are from some house , right? ". She asks and then the attention is on him again.

He clenches his jaw, he would have to count at one time or another and it looks like this is the time. "I will tell you, but please keep in mind that I am not like him OK, I was raised by a heroine and I am a hero too, so please don't jump to conclusions OK" he says nervously and He ended up getting suspicious looks from Alex and John.

But Kara didn't have a Suspicious look, but a Neutral one. "OK," she says and then he takes a deep breath before speaking.

"I… My full name is Deryel Zod, I am the son of General Zod of Earth 7."

The looks of Surprise on their faces were alarming and so Alex quickly pulled out a gun and aimed it at him. "Stay where you are!" She says and then John changes and his eyes shine red.

He already expected this reaction and remained with a neutral look, despite the twinge of sadness that reached his heart.

"Alex! Wait!" Yells Kara And then stand with your back in front of you with your hands raised in surrender.

"Kara get away from him! He's -"

"Yes, I know! But he came with me without any resistance, He didn't attack me or hurt anyone." She says and Alex looks incredulous at her.

"and Do you trust him !? He may just be pretending to later attack us and try to harm the land afterwards!" yells Alex. Deryel has to say that it makes sense for her to think that of him ... all of her homeland, before she really knew him, thought he was a threat like his father, Dru Zod.

He sighed "Look, if you want to keep me locked up, feel free, but I'm telling you the truth, if you don't want to believe it, it's your problem," he says and leans back in a chair.

Kara looks at him for a moment before looking back at John and Alex "So we do this, let's keep him in a cell until we're sure he's not a threat," she says.

John nodded at that and looked at Alex "Alex, put the gun down." Alex looks at John and then at Deryel after Kara. She sighs and then unwillingly puts the gun away.

Kara then turns to him with a determined look. "Will you stay here until it proves reliable, are we clear?" She says and he nodded.

" It's fine by me ." He says with a shrug.

" Good."

( One day later )

He was in a cell with a red light on the ceiling. In a spacious room, there was a glass in front. he was sitting on a bed.

He was still dressed in the uniform but they were kind enough to allow him to bathe before locking him up again, brought him some food, even though it was a common prisoner food.

He sincerely wants to get out of there but if he does he can be seen as an enemy or something, but he is losing the patience to wait.

Then a light flashed and the monitor appeared in front of him through the glass. The monitor looked neutral and looked around the cell.

And then he looked at him. "You have to leave," he says.

Deryel sighs and gets up "I can't, I'm stuck here and-" The monitor raised his hand and the lights went out in an instant. Deryel closed his mouth.

"Get out, and don't be stuck here again, You need to prove that you are trustworthy for the beings of this land and you won't be able to do that here, don't go back to this cell, are we clear?" The monitor looked at him and Deryel raised his hands in surrender.

"Totally," he says and The Monitor nodded before disappearing into a light again.

Deryel took a deep breath "Well, better do what he says." Then he broke the glass and the alarm went off, he groaned "Damn it" then jumped up and broke the ceiling.

( One hour later )

He was already wearing a simple brown jacket and a white dress shirt, dark blue jeans and a simple brown shoe. A transparent glass glasses and a black cap on the head.

His uniform was high-tech, he could change his appearance whenever he wanted, But the glasses and the cap he had to buy with the little money he had in his pocket.

Now he needed a place and a job to support himself.

He looked at the bracelet "Mac, Find a job vacancy that I can mix and work as a super hero at the same time."

The bracelet with the Ia Flashed blue "Catco, local newspaper, there is a photographer spot there, 3 km to the north, turn left at the next street and go straight." Says the Robotic voice of Mac.

He took a deep breath "OK, on the way," he says and then starts walking.

He soon arrived at the site, Large glass doors and he entered, He spoke to an employee and he pointed to the elevator.

He got up there, and to his great misfortune, he ended up tripping over someone, the thing and that person didn't fall, in fact he and the person ended up taking a step back on impact. The person turned to him "I'm sorry- oh" was Kara. She froze and so did he.

Great "Hey Kara," he says with an embarrassed smile.

She looked confused for a moment before the perception hit "You!" She exclaimed in surprise. Some people looked at her and then she straightened up, realizing that she had spoken a little too loudly.

She looked at him seriously and whispered.

"What do you think you're doing here? How did you get out?" she asked a little closer.

He sighed "We'd better talk somewhere else," he says.

but Kara didn't accept it, she shook her head

"No, you and I are going to get off that elevator and I'm going to take you back to the DEO, now," she says through clenched teeth.

He should have expected this already "No, Sorry but I will not be a prisoner again, I am here to help, no matter if you accept me or not." he says and without a second takes a step back in the elevator at the moment when he was going to close, Kara opened her mouth and tried to get in but the door closed before she could. She cannot open the door or destroy it as this would reveal her identity to her co-workers.

So she only has two options, Wait ... or go up to the terrace. ...

Great. There were no cameras in the elevator, so he removed his glasses and cap, Dropping his cap to the floor and putting his glasses away, He pressed the button on his bracelet and his dark blue uniform with white stripes materialized and he put on his black mask before Do lift opens and Supergirl in all her costume appears in front of you with folded arms.

She looked at him with narrowed eyes "You didn't think you would escape me so easily, right?" She raised an eyebrow.

He laughed "not really." he says and then his expression changes to seriousness before he steps forward and puts his hands on either side of her head, that was an invasion of privacy but it was the only way to disorient her without physically hurting her and escaping.

And then he felt it, it was a whirlwind of strong emotions, Anger, Guilt and pain, a lot of pain, And then he saw his memories appear before his eyes like a movie.

He focused on the most important memories.

How she got to land at 13, how she was adopted by the Danvers and had a friction between her and Alex, but they worked together to investigate the death Kenny Lee and then ended up becoming friends and sisters, how she finished high school and college, and she became Cat Grant's secretary and then she became Supergirl saving people from a plane, which had her sister.

Her defeating aliens And saving people, The death of her aunt Astra, Saving Lena Luthor (she was a surprise, Deryel had no idea that Lex Luthor had a sister on this earth, She seemed to be a good person from the memories he saw)

working together with Superman and Knowing Mon El de Daxam (Deryel Hates Daxamites, they were a despicable race, and he had the displeasure of knowing and fighting Against on one occasion) Fighting the Daxamite invasion and ... Losing Mon El.

He felt everything, the pain and the guilt for having sent him away to save him and the land, It was too much.

He felt a tear run down his own cheek as he felt Kara's suffering, Did she have that much weight on her shoulders? This was too much, even for her.

He then gasped when he took his hands off his head and then Kara fell to her knees breathless, she looked super tired And Deryel felt kind of bad for doing this to her "what did you ... what did you do to me?" she asked between gasping breaths and looked at him in confusion.

He looked at her with an expression of sadness and guilt "I am sorry for that, Please forgive me." he says with regret before passing by at super speed and flying to the sky.

He had even more pain to keep in himself, if the losses he suffered were not enough, he still had to endure more pain, pain that was not his but hurt him too…

He flew away from National City towards a ship in the middle of the National City sea. Wondering if there were heroes in Gotham, if there was already Barbara ..

He felt some tears come down his face as he flew but ignored it.

Barbara Gordon used to be his girlfriend, She was once Batgirl, and had become Oracle A year before the destruction of Earth 7 happened.

Even though she was in a wheelchair, Deryel loved her and was with her anyway, taking care of her and being her safe haven, just as she had been to him on countless occasions before.

And now he has to be strong and honor the memory of those who died and he cannot save them.

Monitor said there was no chance of recovering Earth 7, even if they somehow managed to defeat the Anti Monitor, Earth 7 and all of them were gone, forever.

Deryel didn't want to believe it but deep down he knew it was true, there was no lie in the Monitor's voice.

He spent a month of mourning, next to the monitor in a kind of hidden dimension, but regardless of his loss, he had to be strong and endure. He was a Zod, a hero, a paragon, and he will not give up who he is and who he has become, no matter the losses he has suffered.

It was not for nothing that The Monitor sent him to this universe, Kara Era The Paragon of Hope. And hope and perseverance are very similar in some ways.

He's here to help Kara from this land, But the monitor made it clear that it wasn't just that, Deryel is not just The symbol of perseverance, He's a hero and at some point Deryel will have to go to another universe to help at some point .

Only not now.

He sat there for a few hours, thinking about what to do next, he felt a little hungry but he can fix it later.

He took a deep breath, no, he will not be hidden, especially from Supergirl, He is a hero and will act as one.

The symbol on his chest was from Zod's house, but people mistook it for the number five or the letter U, because the symbol was turned a little but still looked like a U. He should change to a Z but he is still undecided, Generally in his homeland he was known as Ultraboy.

He then heard a crash and went up to the skies to get a better look, he could see a panicked crowd miles away from where he was, Something hit the land below where they were.

He saw Supergirl and Hunter Hunter among the crowd, they should be able to take care of things there. Deryel used his super vision to look for the culprit of the attack and then saw a submarine In the sea below, He wasted no time before Descending into the water and Going to the submarine, he thought about hitting the submarine with the vision of heat but that could kill the criminals.

He was in front of the Submarine but in a second there was a shot, so he saw a missile going towards him, he hit it but it turns out that the missile took him up a little and then exploded, sending him out of the sea in a explosion of Water and Smoke from the Missile.

He stopped in midair, He shook his head a little stunned and then Supergirl appeared beside him. She looked angry so Deryel raised her hands in surrender "I am not with them! I was trying to stop them! I swear!" He says.

She sighed a little irritated "We don't have time for this, if you are a hero, help me and take care of the Civilians and I will take care of the Submarine." She says and he nodded before shooting for the coast, he arrived at the place and saw people running in panic, he noticed a stage and realized it was an event.

He then heard a cry "Help! Somebody help me Please!" He wasted no time before running to the spot, there was a little girl stuck under a metal bar, her mother desperate trying to lift the bar and she was really doing it, she crumpled the bar.

which made Deryel confused and surprised.

But she still hasn't managed to get up completely.

He shook his head, Help now and ask questions later, he landed beside his mother and effortlessly raised the bar and moved aside, the child automatically got up on his knees and hugged the crying mother.

The mother looked at him with her head on her daughter's shoulder "Thank you," she says with tears streaming down her eyes.

Deryel nodded And then looked around to see if anyone else was injured but found no one in danger. And then he heard something in the sea and looked in the direction, A giant Submarine emerged from the sea and Supergirl was holding it, With a serious expression on its face while watching people.

He heard the applause around and smiled a little while clapping too, He saw Kara's eyes drift to him briefly.

( Time after )

"You said you were staying at the DEO but you didn't, and you still knocked Me down somehow." It's the first thing Supergirl says when they get to the skies together.

One standing in front of the other in the air, Kara with her arms crossed and a serious expression on her face.

He sighed, also with his arms crossed "I'm sorry for these things, but I can't be trapped, I didn't come here to be a prisoner, I came here to help, I know you don't trust me, you don't know me, but I know you, more than you know, "he says.

"what you know is probably someone else, a version of me from your land, you know nothing about me." answered.

Deryel looked guilty "I have to disagree, What I did to you near the elevator made me know you, quite a lot, And I can say that you have a heavy weight on your shoulders, And I want to help Carry, if you allow me. " He says .

Kara looks a little confused "what do you mean? What did you do there?"

Deryel rubbed her neck in embarrassment "I ... I saw your memories ..." He says and then her expression changes to irritation.

"What?! How are you- are you a telepath !? But how!? You are a Kryptonian!" she exclaimed and even had a surprise on her face.

"first of all, I'm really sorry for that, I know it was a huge invasion of privacy-"

"oh do you think?" she scoffed.

"I didn't want to, but it was the only way to disorient you without hurting you physically, I swear I didn't dare much, I just saw some memories of some events, like how you got to land, when you became a hero, AND some other things but I swear I didn't mean it, I'm sorry again, And I also ended up feeling some of your emotions in some situations. "

"Feeling emotions? But you-"

"My telepathy skills are not exactly like John's, I can see memories and feel emotions, but I can't read the person's thoughts in those particular memories, even though I can feel the person's emotions that are present in the person at that moment, I can activate and deactivate this ability whenever I want, I don't know why I have this ability but I have them, and I also have telekinesis. "

Kara looks even more incredulous "woah that… .this is incredible but you are still a stranger, and with those skills it is even more dangerous," she says.

Deryel was a little annoyed "you didn't judge Lena for having the name Luthor the first time you met, you believed her."

"Lena was not an unknown Kryptonian from another Earth who has telepathic powers and telekinesis when I met her, You are, I am not judging you for who you are, And I am not suspicious of your story, I believe in you but I do not trust you enough to set you free around without supervision. "

That was fair, even so it was Annoying, He wasn't a child that needed surveillance, But that seems like a solution to the trust problem "So what are you saying? I can be free but as long as someone is watching me ? "it reminded him of Mon El's situation when he arrived ashore and Kara had to keep an eye on him,That must bring some painful memory to her.

She sighed and nodded "Yes, considering that I am the only Kryptonian in National City who can stop you if you try something, you will be under my watch and John's and also my orders and his, you will do as I say and it wouldn't get out of my sight unless it's really necessary, are we clear? "she says.

He smiled and put his hand on his forehead in military salute "Yes Sir," he jokes.

She smiles slightly amused but soon realizes it And tries to pretend a serious expression

" Let's go." She says and turns around, shooting away.

Deryel smiled even more and followed.

(Time later, No DEO)

"This is a little tight," he says, adjusting his tie, wearing glasses and a gray dress shirt, a black coat over it, black jeans and a brown shoe. Her hair combed as she looked at her reflection in the mirror in front of her.

He was in a gray DEO room while he doesn't have a place to stay, he slept there, but Kara got him a job at Catco, he will be a photographer, starting today.

Kara stood behind him with her arms crossed and a slightly amused expression "you chose this outfit," she says.

He frowned but nodded "Really." He turned and adjusted his glasses "How am I?"

Kara smiled and raised an eyebrow

"unrecognizable, you look like a completely different person, so you're fine."

"Is that a compliment?" He asks with a grimace.

She laughed "come on, you have pictures to take." She says and turns to leave, Deryel took the camera from the bed and followed behind.

(At Catco)

"So Lena Luthor is the new boss?" He asks as he leaves the Elevator with Kara.

She nodded "That's right, so please don't say anything to offend her OK, you are the newbie so you need to make a good impression," she says and he nods.

" OK ." he replies and then the two walk to James Olsen's office, and La talking to James was Lena Luthor, and Deryel has to admit that she was even more beautiful than how she saw her in Kara's memories.

Kara walks in front holding a notebook with ribbon

"Lena! Welcome to Catco," she says and then the two talk for a while, Deryel just observed the interaction of the two despite feeling James look at him, until Lena then looked at Kara's side, noticing him.

"And who is this?" She smiled looking at him.

Kara looked at Deryel and smiled nervously "Ah this is Daniel Ezekiel, He's Catco's new photographer." She introduces and gestures with her eyes to greet Lena.

He smiles gently "Hello Miss Luthor, It is a pleasure to meet you." He offers his hand for a greeting that Lena takes and shakes a little.

" I say the same." She responds and releases her hand with a smile.

Then he walks forward a little past them and talking like she is trying a new tactic of direction, Deryel noticed that James looked a little uncomfortable and raised an eyebrow at him but he never saw, his attention turned to Lena.

Kara's phone rang and Lena turned to her

"And Kara, could you get me that Ed dossier?" Kara seemed to be in conflict and looked at her apologetically.

"sorry, I have an unforeseen event, can I get it for you later ?" She asks and Lena looks a little embarrassed but nods.

"Oh sure." She says .

Kara looks at Deryel "Daniel, James here will help you if you have any questions or something." That was her way of saying that James Olsen was her nanny while she went out to be a supergirl.

He thought about protesting but remembered what she said earlier about doing what she says and closed her mouth with a forced smile "OK." She waved and then passed him and Lena "excuse me." She asks and practically runs to the elevator.

James opens his mouth and closes a couple of times before saying "I can ask someone to get it for you, Miss Luthor." he says .

Lena smiles "It's not necessary, I'll take it myself." She turns around.

Deryel opens her mouth And takes a step forward

"Miss Luthor, I can get it, I'm currently out of it," he offers.

Lena turns to him "You don't have to, I really can-"

He interrupted her "I insist, can I help, please?" He says and smiles sheepishly, He wanted to feel a little helpful and would lie if you said you didn't want to be a little free from the watchful eyes of James, Kara or John.

James protested "You can't." He then caught Lena's gaze and rephrased "I mean, you need to take some pictures for an article, important," he adds.

Deryel smiled "I am sure that no article is more important than Helping Miss Luthor, I can take the pictures right after taking the dossier and bringing both here, I am new here and I would like to be useful, besides I am multitasking "he says proudly.

James wanted to protest again but Lena said before "oh this is great, so thanks," she says with a gentle smile.

Deryel had to restrain himself from laughing at the incredulous and angry expression James was giving him.

He was already out of Catco when he felt a mental vibration somewhere in National City, he was not the hunter from Mars.

One thing that few know is that Deryel has a few extra Kryptonian gifts, including the telepathy he told Kara, but he can also feel the vibrations of a telepath from afar, Another extra gift is that he is more resistant to Kryptonite, but it can still weaken you if it's too much.

He doesn't know why he has these gifts and the other Kryptonians don't, it was a mystery to him.

He then heard a cry of psychic pain, Supergirl.

He wasted no time changing his uniform in an alley and running and going to where she was, it was a bench, he went in and then saw Kara with a panicked look Leaning against the wall with a wheezing breath, like he was trying to breathe and not could.

He frowned in concern and quickly approached, kneeling in front of Kara and placed his hands on either side of Kara's face and held her so that she looked directly at him

"Shhh.… Hey it's okay, you'll be fine OK… breathe with me OK?" She still looked panicked but she nodded a little and he looked into her Blue eyes "OK, Breathe with me, This ... calmly, Concentrate on me… "He says Taking a deep breath and letting it out and she calmly followed suit

"Yes, this is going well." he says and hears Kara's heart settle for Medias beats. He smiled

"better?" he asked and she sighed in relief and nodded.

"Yes, thank you…" she says in a low voice and looks at him with a grateful look.

He pulled his hands away from his face and let his hands fall, he stood up and offered his hand to her. She looked at him for a moment but took the hand and stood up too. The two face each other.

Deryel raised an eyebrow at her "It's not common for you to have claustrophobia attacks, is it?" He says and Kara nodded with a sigh.

"No, it's not, I don't know how it happened."

(In the DEO)

He waited patiently leaning against the door From the infirmary room, Kara then went out and turned to the others in. "She took me by surprise the first time, it won't happen again," she says and then leaves the room and looks at him for him to follow, what he does.

As he goes down the stairs he asks "Are you okay?"

Kara looks at him briefly "don't think that your escape from Catco went unnoticed, James texted me that you left it unattended, You knew he couldn't leave Catco to follow you." She says.

Deryel looked guilty "I know, I didn't do what I said, again, but honestly I don't like it OK." She stopped when she was finished walking down the stairs and looked at him in irritation.

"It doesn't matter if you like being watched or not, you say you want us to trust you but every time I ask you to do something, you disobey and do what you want, how do you think I can trust you like that?" She asks.

Deryel swallowed "I'm sorry, so just.…"

"Just what?" she asks, clearly annoyed.

He felt hurt but also guilty "I know I don't do what I say most of the time, and I'm sorry for my disobedience, I just can't stand feeling trapped OK?" He sighed "And I just wanted to help, I also don't like to feel useless, and I want to help you Kara, I know I don't have the right to be here, I know I've only complicated things for you since I arrived, and I'm sorry , But please let me help. " he pleaded.

She looked tired and sighed with a calmer look "Okay, when we have a mission, you go with me, but if you try something like hurt someone or -"

He raised his hands in surrender "I won't, I promise," he says.

She sighs again before turning to go down another ladder.

N/ if Have Errors, Sorry.
