(Rated I for Immature)
Planet Mon
A fleet of ships approached the Insane home-world carrying the mighty Darkseid. As the fleet entered the planet's atmosphere, fighters from all over the galaxy exited the ships and started patrolling the area. The Insane looked upon the ships with wonder and trepidation.
"The great Darkseid has arrived, your majesty," a servant informed King Mon.
"Yeah, no shit," King Mon said seeing the ships fly past the windows of his palace.
As Darkseid's ship landed in the square, the Female Furies made their presence known. King Mon, Queen Rhea, and their entourage of best Insane warriors came out to greet Darkseid. The doors of the ship opened and Darkseid stepped out wearing his black armor. His eyes were a demonic red.
"It's been a long time, King Mon," he said in a low baritone voice.
"It's an honor to have you here," King Mon replied with false sincerity.
"I think you will find the pleasure is all mine," Darkseid smiled amused as the Insane all knelt before him.
Grail then made her entrance sneering at the group of Insane. "This is my daughter, Grail. She will be your new commander. Nothing has changed between us. Any disrespect or insubordination towards her will be seen as if it were done onto me. I must warn you though. Her temper far exceeds my own," Darkseid said to them.
"Yes, my Lord," King Mon replied submissively.
"It would appear there are several Insane warriors with weapons trained on us," Grail said amused sensing their presence.
"Indeed," Darkseid agreed. His Omega beams danced around the city destroying all of their positions killing every one of them.
"You're either brave or incredibly foolish to think you can pull a fast one on Lord Darkseid," Grail mocked.
"Bravery comes to nothing in the face of death," Darkseid smiled.
"Yes, my Lord," Kon Mon agreed.
Darkseid and Grail then departed the Insane home-world with their fleet of ships leaving King Mon completely humiliated.
Super Insane Bro-Lee
King Mon and Queen Rhea went to the pod room filled with young Insane boys. In these pods, their development and strength were accelerated. They were numbered in the thousands and were only a few years away from becoming King Mon's new army. The royal couple came upon their son's pod which was apart from the others.
"My son, my pride and joy," King Mon said upon looking at the sleeping child. "The battle power within you is astonishing."
"You will one day rule the universe and so will your heirs," Queen Rhea smiled.
"Darkseid thinks the Insane will follow his orders without question, but he will fall to us. You will one day be a vicious king," King Mon said confidently.
Queen Rhea noticed a common child close to her son's pod. "Who is this child so close to my son?" she demanded.
"He is Bro, the son of Paragus of the House of Lee," a doctor said to her.
"This nursery is for exceptional children. Explain yourselves," Queen Rhea sneered.
"His abilities far exceed all the other children. We cannot even measure it," the doctor replied.
"You dare to say that this child is on par with my son?" King Mon asked insulted.
"Well, yeah," the doctor replied. "We've tested his battle level several times and came up with the same result. In fact, his level is higher than all the children combined."
"Holy shit," King Mon said stunned.
"He could become an outstanding warrior," the doctor said to King Mon. "He may become a powerful asset to our forces. He could even be the Legendary Super Insane."
"The Super Insane legend is a myth," King Mon said skeptically.
Queen Rhea eyed her husband but did not contradict him.
Paragus entered the throne room to address King Mon. "You sent for me, my king?" he asked.
"Yes, you and your son are to be sent off-world. There, you will conquer the planet, Vompa," King Mon ordered.
"That is an uninhabited planet inhospitable to complex life," Paragus realized. "This is a shit assignment."
"The truth of the matter is that your son's abilities are freakishly high. While here on Planet Mon, he could be detected by Darkseid. I am therefore exiling you so that you can train your son to become the Legendary Super Insane. Then, when you have achieved your mission, you may come back and help us defeat and destroy Darkseid," King Mon said.
"My King, that sounds like bullshit," Paragus doubted. "He is not a threat to Mon."
"You mean, the planet, me, or my son?" King Mon asked confused.
"Yes," Paragus answered.
King Mon blasted Paragus to the floor. "Fucking smart-ass," he said displeased.
"You're jealous that Bro is more powerful than your own son," Paragus accused.
"How dare you?!" Queen Rhea snarled.
"Your son has already departed. If you want to ensure his survival, I would go after him," King Mon smirked.
Paragus gave King Mon a horrified look and raced out.
Thirty Years Later
A servant came in to inform King Mon of Darkseid's new order. "All Insane ships are to return back to Planet Mon," he said.
"It's a trap," King Mon and Queen Rhea said together.
"Prepare the fleet. Gather our finest warriors...and some females," King Mon ordered. "Reach out to my son, Prince Mon."
"Prince Mon and his men have ventured outside our communication range," the servant replied.
"Keep trying," King Mon ordered.
As Darkseid's fleet approached, Planet Mon began a massive evacuation taking every available ship. Queen Rhea prayed in her room for a miracle. Suddenly, a short man appeared to her in a flash of light. "My name is Mr. Mxyzptlk. I'm a fifth-dimensional being," he introduced himself.
Queen Rhea immediately fired an energy beam at him. It went through him and blasted a hole through the wall of her chambers. "You are quite feisty," he smiled.
"What do you want?" Queen Rhea asked spooked.
"I can offer you twenty years in my dimension. Here, in this dimension, only twenty days will have passed," he offered.
"Why would I want to do that?" Queen Rhea asked.
"In those twenty years, you can train, heal, and become stronger. You have a great talent. I can help you achieve levels beyond comprehension," Mr. Mxyzptlk offered.
"The Legendary Super Insane?" Queen Rhea wondered.
"And beyond," Mr. Mxyzptlk grinned.
"What do you want in return?" Queen Rhea wondered.
"Just your company. You will find it infinitely more interesting than your current husband," Mr. Mxyzptlk enticed.
"Will I become strong enough to defeat Darkseid?" Queen Rhea wondered.
"Maybe," Mr. Mxyzptlk shrugged. "Can you pass this up?"
"Take me to your dimension," Queen Rhea agreed. Mr. Mxyzptlk took her hand and then two disappeared in a flash of light.
Within those fateful twenty days, Darkseid's fleet came upon Planet Mon. He found it empty of Mon's leaders and greatest warriors. Darkseid and Grail exited their ship and looked upon the planet. "This is the price you pay for your sass," Darkseid said to Grail.
Grail turned away from Darkseid with a pouting face. Darkseid fired Omega beams from his eyes hitting the planet. The atmosphere became super-heated incinerating all life on the surface and boiling away the oceans. The beam then cracked the planet's crust in several places and then finally the planet exploded in a brilliant fireball. Darkseid grinned at the destruction he had caused.
"You killed my savages. I hate you," Grail said pissed-off.
"They were merely monkeys," Darkseid said dismissively.
"But they were my monkeys," Grail said annoyed.
Darkseid and Grail then came back inside the ship. "Before the planet's destruction, we discovered dozens of unaccounted for ships. I believe they evacuated a great many before the planet was destroyed," Granny Goodness said to Darkseid.
"It doesn't matter. Nothing matters," Darkseid said returning to his chambers.
Shortly thereafter, Mr. Mxyzptlk returned Queen Rhea to where Planet Mon used to be. Instead of there being a planet, there was an asteroid field. "Oh dear," Mr. Mxyzptlk said sympathetically.
"My planet, my race," Queen Rhea said softly devastated by what she was seeing.
"You will be glad to know that your husband and son are still alive. I will bring you to the Insane fleet where your husband is," Mr. Mxyzptlk.
"I would rather be with my son," Queen Rhea said mournfully.
"Unfortunately, you were rather poor company, and I now have my sights on another. This will have to do," Mr. Mxyzptlk said to her and in a flash, Queen Rhea was on-board the Insane battleship.
"My Queen, you're still alive," King Mon said embracing her. "But how?"
"I trained for twenty years in only twenty days, but I was too late to save our world," Queen Rhea said sadly.
"Don't be silly. A woman could never defeat Darkseid," King Mon said to her.
"Leave us," Queen Rhea ordered the guards and servants. Once they were alone, Queen Rhea punched King Mon hard to the gut sending him to the floor.
"I have surpassed you, my king. From now on, you will take orders from me, or I will humiliate you in front of your men," Queen Rhea threatened.
"What is your order?" King Mon gasped in pain.
"Find our son, whatever it takes," she ordered him and the rest is history.
Present Day
Kon and Mara sparred off the coast of an uninhabited Pacific island. It was a sunny warm day with few clouds. With each blow, they created a shock-wave in the air that sounded like thunder. Kon was dressed in his usual DEO jacket and Superman t-shirt while Mara was in her Supergirl uniform. Brainiac 5 watched their movements with his eyes. Every so often, they would impact the water creating depth charge-like water explosions.
Mara punched Kon to his arm. He, in turn, kicked her back. The two continued to spar until they got hungry and came in. Brainiac 5 had already prepared a number of dishes for them. The two immediately began inhaling the food.
"Tell me, Kon, why do you seek greater strength than you have already?" Brainiac 5 asked.
"To surpass my father, I suppose. And then my mother," Kon grinned.
"To what end?" Brainiac 5 asked.
"I ain't no one's bitch, and I'm going to keep it that way," Kon said immaturely.
"And you, Mara?" Brainiac 5 asked.
"To protect people," she said simply.
"Besides, why would I want to sit on my ass all day," Kon said obviously. "The fight with Reign opened my eyes. I not only need to defeat my opponent but be able to kick their ass even if they come back from the dead infinite times. Also, there are infinite universes filled with bad guys I want to kill," Kon said excitedly as he became Super Insane.
"You're an idiot. We should focus on defeating Darkseid," Mara said.
"I could kill him right now," Kon said confidently.
"According to my analysis, you could not," Brainiac 5 rebuked. "Not even a Super Insane level four could defeat him."
"Well, fuck," Kon said disappointedly.
"There are levels beyond Super Insane level four," Brainiac 5 said knowingly.
Mara gave him a dirty look. "Of course, I was referring to Kryptonian Prime levels," Brainiac 5 said trying to calm Mara down.
"Oh yeah? How are we going to do that?" Kon asked skeptically.
"I suggest you get more sun," Brainiac 5 smiled.
Granny Goodness approached Darkseid's throne on his flagship. "I have brought you two Insane warriors," she said to him.
Darkseid eyed the two of them. Paragus now had white spiky hair while Bro had wild black hair and a muscular physique. "Where is your tail, boy?" he asked the younger of the two.
"I cut off his tail years ago. In his great-ape form, he would have gone out of control and destroyed the planet," Paragus explained.
"Can you control him otherwise?" Darkseid asked. "Did you bring danger to my ship?"
"No, my Lord. I can control him with this remote and this collar. Whenever he loses control or steps out of line, I can electrocute him," Paragus said taking out the remote for Darkseid to see.
"You are a compassionate father to give your son such discipline," Darkseid said amused. "And what is your name, boy?"
Bro said nothing in reply staring off into space. "My Lord, forgive him. His name is Bro of the House of Lee."
"Bro-Lee," Darkseid sounded it out.
"I have trained him well, and I believe he would be of great to use to your force, my Lord," Paragus said.
Darkseid chuckled at that. "Are you aware that I destroyed your home-world?"
"I am, my Lord, but I do not mourn for it, at all. King Mon was an asshole, and I am glad he is dead," Paragus said.
"Actually, he escaped with his best warriors. Only the under-privileged remained and were slaughtered," Darkseid corrected.
"Well...shit," Paragus said depressed.
"However, King Mon, Queen Rhea, and most of his men were killed on Earth by a Kryptonian woman. Prince Mon is dead as well," Darkseid said to him.
"I am pleased to hear it," Paragus said over-joyed.
"King Mon's grandson still lives though," Darkseid said.
"Damn," Paragus said feeling a roller-coaster of emotions.
"The arrogant House of Mon must pay. Their line should have ended!" Paragus said enraged.
"Allow me to give you a hand in allowing your vengeance to come to pass," Darkseid said to him. "Granny Goodness: Give these two new battle uniforms and make sure they get a bath."
"As you wish, my Lord," Granny Goodness replied.
After they were cleaned up, Paragus and Bro came before Darkseid. "The planet we are going to is called Earth. On the planet resides the son and daughter of Prince Mon. I would like to see Bro-Lee's power in action against these two. Do not disappoint me," Darkseid said to Paragus.
"I assure you, my Lord, Bro can defeat any Kryptonian or Insane," Paragus said confidently. "This prince will pay for what his father and his father have done to us."
"You may do as you wish to the two hybrids but the planet is mine to destroy," Darkseid clarified for him.
"As you wish, my Lord," Paragus bowed his head.
Darkseid's ship then landed in Antarctica. Brainiac 5 was immediately fed information from satellites that an alien ship had arrived. "We have an uninvited guest," Brainiac 5 said to Kon and Mara.
"Nice," Kon said cracking his knuckles.
The three lifted off the Pacific island and flew towards Antarctica ready for a fight.
Darkseid exited his ship with Paragus and Bro behind him. His Parademon soldiers stood at attention in formations. Kon and Mara dropped in while Brainiac 5 stayed a distance away. Neither of them was affected by the brutal Antarctic cold.
"Those two look Insane," Kon remarked.
Mara used her X-ray vision and confirmed it. "That's the son of Prince Mon. I'm sure of it," Paragus said looking at Kon's spiky black hair and familiar facial features.
"Darkseid, what are you doing here?" Mara asked not intimidated by his red glowing eyes or his tall muscular form.
"I want to play a game where you all kill each other while I watch," Darkseid grinned.
"So who are these two? They look weak as fuck," Kon said insultingly.
"They are the newest additions to my collection: Paragus and his son, Bro, of the House of Lee," Darkseid introduced. "They're Insane from your annihilated home-world. The one I personally destroyed," Darkseid said.
"We get it, man. You're an asshole," Kon said dismissively.
"Your grandfather did a great disservice to Paragus and Bro, exiling them onto a shit-hole planet. They were trapped there until my Furies found them," Darkseid said.
"You give us far too much credit, my Lord. We found them only by using powers you have so graciously given us," Granny Goodness said to him.
"That will do, pig. That will do," Darkseid said to her. "So, you can imagine the rage in their souls."
"Fortunately, I don't give a fuck," Kon smiled.
"I swear you will pay, Mon," Paragus said angrily.
"The name is actually Kon," Kon corrected.
"But the name Mon has been given to the firstborn son of the House of Mon for generations," Paragus said shocked.
"Yeah, well, my mother put a stop to that nonsense," Kon said rolling his eyes.
"I don't care what your name is. The sins of your forefathers are on your hands," Paragus said.
"We're going to have to agree to disagree," Mara objected.
"Yeah, if that were true, we would both be totally fucked," Kon said dryly.
"Let's just all get along," Mara suggested.
"And kill Darkseid," Kon grinned.
"Shall we begin?" Paragus asked impatiently.
"Very well then," Darkseid said taking a seat on a throne made up of kneeling Parademons.
"My son, attack!" Paragus ordered him.
"Do I have to?" Bro said unwillingly.
"Of course you do. This is your chance to get your revenge," Paragus said obviously.
"I'm not really into revenge," Bro said honestly.
"You've fought countless times. What makes this any different?" Paragus asked.
"Those creatures were trying to eat me, or I was hunting them to survive," Bro said.
"How dare you disobey your father," Paragus said outraged.
"Is there a problem?" Darkseid asked impatiently.
"No, my Lord. Come on, Bro. If we don't fight, we'll both be killed. You don't want daddy to die, do you?" Paragus pleaded pathetically.
"I suppose not," Bro said without enthusiasm.
Bro walked towards Kon and Mara. "He's mine. With your no-kill policy, you'll just piss him off," Kon said to Mara.
"Whatever," Mara rolled her eyes.
Bro leaped towards Kon and punched him to the chest. Kon blocked him with his arms and the fight was on. Kon lazily dodged all of Bro's attacks as they stayed close to the snowy ground. "You're not too bad. You might even be a decent warm-up," Kon smirked taking off his leather jacket. He then proceeded to punch Bro hard to the chin. Bro swiped at Kon multiple times and was then kicked to the chest by Kon. Kon then gave him another kick sending Bro away from him. Bro came back and then the fight continued creating craters in the snow.
The two then fought in the air creating air shock-waves with each blow. The two blocked each other's fists until Kon smacked Bro down to the snow. Bro quickly got back in the air and two locked hands. "You're getting annoying," Kon said as he head-butted Bro and then punched him so hard he blasted off the top of a mountain peak. Kon decided to take the fight a little more serious as he went Super Insane on a glacier vaporizing the ice beneath his feet.
"What is this?" Paragus wondered.
"The Super Insane transformation. It dramatically increases the Insane warrior's power level. Don't tell me your son is not capable of it," Darkseid said mockingly.
"I always thought it was a myth," Paragus said stunned.
"This is going to be over quickly," Darkseid said disappointedly.
Kon increased his speed and punching power dramatically getting the best of Bro. Kon manhandled Bro across the snowy plains and then blasted him to the face. Bro counter-attacked punching Kon into a glacier. He kept pushing Kon through the glacier until they were out the other side. The two then fought evenly with punches and kicks. Bro let loose a slew of energy shots at Kon which he managed to all dodge.
Kon then increased his power level by going Ultra Super Insane. "Big Bang Attack!" Kon shouted as he blasted Bro into the ice creating a massive explosion.
"Really?" Mara said unimpressed with the attack's name.
Bro came back into the fight but was unable to hit the quicker Kon. Finally, Kon caught Bro's punch and then brutally punched Bro to the face. Bro was flung backward hitting several mountain tops in a row.
"Is that all he's got?" Darkseid asked unimpressed.
"I believe so," Paragus admitted.
"Pity. This fight is over it would seem," Darkseid said bored.
Paragus reached for his remote to calm Bro down and bring him back to him. "Looking for this?" Darkseid asked having the remote in his hand.
"My Lord?" Paragus wondered.
Darkseid crushed the remote. "One way or another, an Insane dies today," Darkseid grinned.
"My son," Paragus said mournfully.
Bro struggled to move in the ice devastated by the blows he had received. Kon pointed his hand at Bro for a killer strike. "What a waste," Kon said disappointedly.
"No, don't kill him," Mara said halfheartedly.
Kon ignored her and blasted Bro deep into the ocean below. After a minute, the ocean became alive with a giant whirlpool. "This fucker doesn't know when to quit," Kon said amused.
"Maybe you need better finishing moves," Mara chided.
"Like you could do better," Kon scoffed.
Bro emerged from the water pissed-off and totally out of control. Bro fired an energy beam from his mouth that nearly hit Kon and Mara. It went passed them and blew off a mountain top. "If that had hit the ground," Mara realized.
Kon powered up and punched Bro to the forehead without result. Bro then punched Kon back. The two fought furiously until Kon landed on the snow. "This is some bullshit. He's not even Super Insane, and he's fighting at my level."
Bro then sped to Kon's position punching him hard to the face. Kon fell in the snow with his forehead bleeding. "What the fuck?" he wondered.
Bro then kicked him up into the air, sped behind him, and elbow him hard to the back. Kon slammed back into the ice and was knocked out cold. Bro then landed near Kon and powered up a killer energy strike.
"Hey, let's do this," Mara said to him.
Bro gave her a crazy wide-eyed expression. Turning to Mara, he flew at her. Mara and Bro fought evenly in the air and it was then that Mara realized that Bro's power level had dropped dramatically. He was consistently fighting at the same level as his opponent. Mara kept the fight at a low-level hoping Kon would wake up. Despite being at the same level, Bro's male aggression was giving him an edge. He punched Mara through glaciers and pounded her into the snow creating a giant crater.
To keep herself alive, Mara went Super Insane and fought Bro evenly in the air. Bro increased his power level to meet hers as she predicted. Making sure Kon was still knocked out, Mara called upon her other side. "Reign." Bro went in for a punch but Reign caught it and kept him still. Her hair became bright red and a red aura flared around her. Reign kept Bro still for a brief moment.
"You have a lot to learn, savage," Reign sneered.
Reign gave Bro a devastating punch imprinting him into a glacier. The ground underneath their feet began to shake cracking the ice. "Take the ship into orbit," Darkseid ordered Granny Goodness.
Darkseid's ship took off as the ice underneath it collapsed. "This has become quite an entertaining show. For your sake, I hope your son can continue," Darkseid said to Paragus.
Reign and Bro fought evenly. No matter how many times or with how much force, Bro just kept coming at her. Bro then took a hold of Reign and slammed her into the hard ice. Reign felt the beating of her life as Bro continued to slam her busting the ice each time. Mara lost her Super Insane god powers and returned to normal as Reign retreated into her mind.
"Mara, what the fuck is going on?" Hank asked her telepathically.
"I'm getting my butt kicked," Mara said honestly.
"You were gone for a moment. I thought you had died," Hank said worriedly.
"Not yet," Mara sighed.
"Where are you? I can't sense your location," Hank said to her.
"I can't. You'll be killed, too," Mara said painfully.
"This must be one hell of a foe," Hank remarked.
"No kidding," Mara said barely able to stand. "Got to go."
Mara then turned to Bro who had a demonic look on his face. "Reign."
Reign powered back up to Super Insane god and fought Bro evenly. The two slammed into each other and fought in the air. The two then blasted each other with energy shots. Bro punched Reign so hard she penetrated the ice, the crust, and into the mantel below. Bro and Reign fought in the underground cave filled with magma. Reign kicked Bro hard, back to the surface creating an explosion of ice.
Bro powered up creating hurricane winds. A green energy field blocked Reign from getting anywhere near. Darkseid created an energy shield of his own to prevent himself from being hit by the energy discharge. Paragus was tossed about unprotected. Bros' power vaporized the ice and ripped up the Earth's crust turning the land into a volcanic wasteland. Reign took the fight to Bro punching him several times and then punching him so hard the impact left a crater on a volcano.
"Finally," Reign said panting from effort.
"It looks like this is the end. You should be proud of your son. He forced her to sell her soul to a demon," Darkseid said amused.
"I believe so," Paragus said depressed.
"But perhaps not," Darkseid considered firing Omega beams into Paragus' chest killing him.
Bro saw his father die next to Darkseid and began to freak out. In his rage, Bro created a green aura the size of a city, and a pillar of energy that went into space. His eyes went red and his hair glowed gold. Bro gave a scream of rage as he became Super Insane for the first time.
"Yes, show me your power. Dance for me, monkey," Darkseid grinned.
"Oh, fuck," Reign realized as Bro showered energy beams down upon her. Reign skipped around dodging the energy beams and then batting a few of them away.
Kon awoke and realized he was in a volcanic wasteland. "What the fuck?" he wondered. He then saw Reign and Bro fighting in the air.
"No," Kon said horrified as he saw Reign again.
He watched the fight continue unsure of who to help. "How? Why?" he wondered flustered. Finally, he went Super Insane and went to help his sister. Reign and Kon battled Bro to a standstill. The two powered up energy beams and fired at Bro. He unleashed his own attack. Kon and Reign were blown back by him.
"If you can kill my mother, you can kill this fucker," Kon shouted at Reign.
"I am only at one-fourth of my power," she informed him.
"When this fight is over, I'm kicking your ass," Kon shouted.
"Not if he kills us first," Reign pointed out.
Kon then noticed Darkseid standing patiently. "I got an idea," Kon said taking the fight closer to Darkseid.
The enraged Bro went after them as they came closer to Darkseid. Bro then attacked Darkseid completely out of his mind. "You dare!" Darkseid said pissed-off as he was pummeled by Bro.
Reign and Kon took a breather as Darkseid and Bro began to fight. Bro forced Darkseid into a rock formation and punched him non-stop into the rock. Darkseid finally blasted Bro off of him with his Omega beams. "You dare make me exert myself? To make me put effort into a fight? Then I will teach you a lesson. I'll teach you that no one fucks with Darkseid."
Bro wasn't listening. He attacked Darkseid furiously melting his armor away and cracking his hard black skin. Bro used his energy shield to block Darkseid's Omega beams. Bro continued to bash on Darkseid until he was just about to kill him.
Reign receded into Mara's mind as she lost strength. Both Mara and Kon went back to their normal selves. "Once he kills Darkseid, we're fucked," Kon said.
"I asked for Reign's help. I'm sorry I didn't tell you," Mara said.
"Why would you ally with our parents' killer?" Kon asked angrily.
"It was the only way to win. It was the only way for me to keep going. When she's in control, I don't feel pain," Mara admitted.
"It's pain that proves we're still alive, Mara," Kon said to her.
"I can't deal with the guilt, Kon. It's more than just mourning. I'm responsible," Mara said sadly.
"I told you that if you were really responsible for their deaths, I would kill you, didn't I? Yet, you're still here. You're still my sister," Kon said to her.
"Everyone hates me," Mara pointed out.
"Fuck'em," Kon told her. "We're going to save their ass today. We're going to save their ass tomorrow, and they'll never appreciate the shit we do for them."
"I'm sorry," Mara said sincerely.
A blond woman with blue eyes in a teal blue one-piece uniform landed next to Kon and Mara. "What the fuck have you two done? You've done more to cause Climate Change than any other source. God damn! Actually, let me take that back. You two almost make me proud to be related to you," Kara smirked.
"No fucking way," Kon said stunned.
Mara backed away from her as if Kara were a ghost. "How?" Mara gasped.
"At the same time that your mother died, I came into being in Siberia. The Russians took me in. As fate would have it, I was at the Russian weather station here. Hard to miss something like this in your own neighborhood," Kara said.
"Mother?" Mara questioned.
"No, I'm sorry. I don't have any of your mother's memories. I'm no different than your aunt. I'm just a genetic copy of her," Kara said to her.
"That makes it so much worse. To have you in front of me only for you to not recognize me," Mara said tearfully.
"If I could bring your mother back, I would, but I can't," Kara said to her.
"She's no different than a Kara from another universe," Kon said to Mara.
"Well, except I have all of your mother's powers," Kara smiled as she saw Bro fight Darkseid.
"If you have her powers, we are so fucked," Kon realized.
"Don't be like that. Russians love their children, too," Kara teased.
Mara embraced Kara not caring that she was a clone with different memories. Kara awkwardly embraced her back and then noticed Alina in her black suit approaching. "You two will always be my blood even if I don't remember you," Kara said to them both. She then nodded to Alina.
The two dropped unconscious in the snow. Mara stared at Kara in wonder as she collapsed and closed her eyes. "These two have been through a lot," Kara said sympathetically.
"You going to handle that?" Alina asked Kara referring to Bro.
"I want to see Darkseid get his ass kicked a little longer if you don't mind," Kara grinned.
"This fight could melt all the ice on this continent dramatically rising sea levels and warming the planet," Alina said obviously.
"Who gives a shit? Russia is too cold as it is," Kara said dismissively as she watched the fight.
"Rising seawater will cast St. Petersburg and some of our other cities into the sea and flood large sections of Siberia," Alina reminded her. "Russia is more than just Moscow."
"Alright, I got this," Kara said confidently.
Kara intervened in the fight between Bro and Darkseid. "As much as I love seeing you get your ass kicked...and I do, I would rather have this fight on your own home-world, thank you very much," Kara said to Darkseid.
"You're alive? How?" Darkseid asked her.
"You know, it's actually a funny story. It begins like this...," Kara said and then kicked him into the air and into space. Darkseid silently screamed in rage as he sailed through space.
Kara then turned to Bro. "An Insane, huh? You remind me of someone I used to know," Kara said thoughtfully.
Bro merely yelled as he powered up to even greater heights. "Go," Kara smiled as the fight began. Bro unleashed dozens of energy beams at Kara, which she easily dodged. "Prime One," Kara said to herself as she glowed yellow. The two fought evenly until Kara gave Bro a strong uppercut. Kara went for the kill cocking her arm back and then punching Bro hard to the gut expecting it to go all the way through. She then kicked Bro to the face sending him down to the rocky volcanic ground.
Kara let loose a sonic scream that created an earthquake. Bro shook his head in pain and then created a green aura to shield himself. Bro then flew up to Kara and the two fought evenly punching and blocking each other as hard as they could. Bro let loose an energy beam from his hands that were countered by Kara's heat vision. "Prime Two," Kara said as she tensed up.
Kara's speed became as quick as the speed of light taking their fight to the quantum level. Alina could no longer see their movements or even their impacts as they were now in another dimension of reality. Bro kept up with Kara's speed and the two battled for supremacy. "Prime Three," Kara said as she increased her power once more. She was able to inflict significant hits on Bro, but he would not go down. Finally, Kara slowed down enough that they could be seen again.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me," Kara said as she kept her Prime Three form. The ground underneath her became molten hot and the air became plasma around her. Ice miles away was starting to melt from the extreme heat. It was as if a star had ignited in Antarctica.
Bro charged Kara in a rage flinging energy blasts at her. Kara kicked him hard to the jaw. Bro quickly recovered and fired an energy beam out of his mouth at her. Kara leaped up into the air and got behind him. She then unleashed a hyper-heat vision beam at him melting the ground he stood on and igniting the air around him. Bro yelled out in pain as he was hit with continuous fire. Kara kept it up hoping to eventually incinerate him.
Kara then waited for the smoke to clear. Bro appeared hurt but still on his feet. Screaming at the top of his lungs, he increased his power-level still. "This is fucking ridiculous," Kara said to herself. "Prime...Four."
Bro charged Kara even as she reached her ultimate form. Kara then kicked him hard to the chest. Bro fired an energy beam at her which she dodged. She then punched him hard to the face. Kara took the initiative punching and kicking Bro as hard as she could to the chest and face. She then slammed him down to the Earth with the force of a nuclear explosion. The ground ripped apart and lava freely exploded upwards. Energy discharges streaked across the entire planet.
Through the lava eruptions, Kara could see Bro with a pissed-off expression ready for more action. Kara gave him a dumbfounded look and then considered a new plan. She powered down to her normal self and waited to see what Bro would do. Bro roared as he powered-up again. Kara closed her eyes and focused on diminishing her strength to its lowest level. Bro counter-attacked with brutal punches. Kara hissed in pain as she was being hit but did not increase her power. She blocked when she could but was ultimately getting her ass kicked. Bruised and beaten, Kara spat blood out of her mouth.
"It's working," she realized.
Bro fell out of Super Insane but continued his assault. Kara was punched into rock formations and slammed into the ground but overall Bro was weakening. Kara worked to dodge his punches until he was at the same power-level as the beginning of the fight. Kara led Bro over towards Alina away from the volcanic hot-spot the two of them had created. Alina raised her hand and stopped Bro in his tracks controlling the water in his blood that circulated through his body.
"He's really strong," Alina said barely able to hold him.
Kara sat on the ground and meditated making herself as weak as possible. "What the fuck are you doing?" Alina asked her as she struggled with him.
Kara ignored her as she centered herself. At the same time, Bro became as weak as he normally was. A red beam went through Bro's back and out his chest. Bro fell to the ground unconscious. Kara then opened her eyes and noticed Brainiac 5 on a mountain peak with a laser pistol.
He flew over to them and eyed Bro's vital signs. "He's still alive," Brainiac 5 noted.
"So, you're the cyborg," Kara smiled. Alina gave him a dirty look.
"Of course. He never saw my attack coming. I have no power-level after all. It took you long enough to figure it out," Brainiac 5 said condescendingly.
"What do you mean?" Alina asked.
"His power-level corresponds to the power-level of all his opponents nearby. The more powerful the opponents, the more powerful he becomes. Consequently, the weaker his opponents, the weaker he becomes. That's why I had you knock out the two brats," Kara said.
"So, you knew from the beginning?" Alina asked outraged.
"Well, shit, I didn't think he could actually withstand multiple Prime modes. I mean, he's got to have a limit, right?" Kara wondered.
"You nearly destroyed the planet or at the very least flooded the land," Alina scolded.
"I'll solve Climate Change before it gets out of hand," Brainiac 5 said unconcernedly.
"So, why the fuck are we lowering our emissions?" Alina asked.
"Indeed," Brainiac 5 smirked.
"We have a past history, right? At least with the original, right?" Kara asked.
"We were comrades, pun intended, for seven years in the future a thousand years from now," Brainiac 5 said.
"Does Russia exist a thousand years from now?" Alina asked.
"No, but neither does America or any other nation-state. I united the entire planet under one religion and one political structure under my control," Brainiac 5 said.
"That makes everything we do rather pointless," Alina frowned.
"Yes," Brainiac 5 agreed.
"It's not about making a difference. It's about fun, am I right? We've been having lots of fun playing against each other," Kara smiled at Brainiac 5.
"Sure," Brainiac 5 allowed.
"What are we going to do with this asshole?" Kara wondered pointing to Bro.
"We should kill him," Alina said about to cause his body to explode.
"Come on, he was so much fun. I've never felt such a rush," Kara objected.
"I also agree. He should be studied. There are not that many Insane left," Brainiac 5 said.
"I'll agree to this only if you host him," Alina said to him.
"Agreed," Brainiac 5 bowed his head to her. He then considered Mara and Kon. "It would be best if they didn't know about you, just yet. They still grieve for their mother."
"They'll find out eventually," Kara sighed.
"Biological humanoids have a great attachment to their parents. Even as infants, they seek to see, hear, and touch their parents. The original Kara felt the same attachment to her Aunt Astra, the twin sister of her mother. She overcame her attachment and became dispassionate when Astra was killed," Brainiac 5 said.
"How was I created?" Kara asked curiously.
"The Harun-El, Black Kryptonite," he answered. "As the original died, it split you in two. The Harun-El splits a person into their good and evil incarnations."
"Supergirl was a hero. Am I evil?" Kara asked concernedly.
"She was...complicated. You are neither all good nor all evil because the original was neither all good nor all evil. It is because of her grey nature that you are also grey. Had the original been truly virtuous, the world would be in great peril now," Brainiac 5 said.
"Maybe I am evil. What stops me from destroying you now?" Kara asked him.
"This unit doesn't contain my data. If you were to destroy me, it would be a slight inconvenience," Brainiac 5 replied.
"Alright, smart-ass. I'm going to send you an invite, so we can play puzzle games against each other," Kara said to him.
"You'll lose," Brainiac 5 said confidently.
Kara turned to Mara and Kon. "This is going to be weird for me. I can only hope its weirder for them," Kara sighed as she kissed Mara and then Kon erasing their memories of the entire fight.
Bro then shook as he slowly got back up. "What happened?" he asked.
"Your ship crash-landed in Antarctica. Your father is dead," Alina told him.
Bro looked down sadly and began to cry. "He was violent and abusive, but he kept me safe. He was still my father."
"We're going to give you a new home: America. It's a great place," Kara smiled.
"You think you're giving us a Trojan Horse, but I believe he will be a great asset," Brainiac 5 said to the two Russians.
"We'll see," Alina smirked.
"I'm finally free," Bro realized.
"Free is relative," Brainiac 5 said dismissively. He then picked up Mara and Kon with each arm.
"What happened to them?" Bro asked concernedly.
"They just had a little too much excitement for one day," Brainiac 5 said vaguely. Brainiac 5 and Bro then flew off leaving Antarctica behind.
"This could be a mistake," Alina muttered.
"We know now how to take him down if he goes crazy," Kara said.
A royally pissed-off Darkseid found his way back to his ship. To put his mind at ease, he targeted an innocent planet and began massacring the peaceful inhabitants. "My Lord, what of Bro, the Insane warrior we left behind on Earth?" Granny Goodness asked.
"Let him stay with them. The humans can domesticate him and bring his power under control. Then, when I am certain he can control himself, I will come back for him," Darkseid said.
"How will you get him to join our side?" Granny Goodness asked confused.
"I'll give him an offer he can't refuse," Darkseid grinned as a hologram of Mara appeared before him.
At Catco, Mara was busy at work. Brainiac 5 brought Bro into Catco. He was wearing a suit, but his hair remained wild. The Catco writers stared at him as the two walked towards Mara. Nia stepped back giving the large man plenty of space. Mara then looked up and noticed Brainiac 5 and Bro. With her X-ray vision, she noticed he was an Insane.
"This is Bro of the House of Lee," Brainiac 5 introduced.
"Bro-Lee," Mara sounded out.
"Right," Bro smiled warmly.
Mara looked over the Insane man. There was something within her that called to him. Her Insane genes were in overdrive with desire for him. Mara stood up and awkwardly extended her hand to him. "Welcome to the planet."
Author's Notes: Brolly's rise from nothing to competing against Super Saiyan god Gogeta was obnoxiously absurd, so I decided to add strength and weakness that Bro-Lee's power level is equal to that of his opponents in battle.
