DISC: ION
AN at the bottom.
Well this is the surprise.
'Okay, I need to play it cool and get permission to go to outer space. Hey dad I need to go to space and check some things out; like if there is a girl in a pod getting a super powered sunbath. No, that won't work. What about. Hey dad can I go to Mercury I need to see some things. Maybe that'll work.' I thought as I ate my breakfast that Hal made, for a single man with a daughter he knows how to cook.
"What troubles you kiddo?" Hals voice brought me out of my train of thought.
"I was thinking if I could go alone to patrol our sector?"
"No." He responded plainly, maybe I can bargain.
"What about from Earth to Jupiter?" I asked expectantly.
"No, maybe John can accompany you?" He told me thinking about it.
"But I want to go alone." I told him as he thought about it.
"I don't know..."
"From Earth to the … Sun?" If I do this correctly I can get what I want.
"Earth to Mercury and you return in an hour; since you're faster than most lanterns."
"Yes, thanks dad." I told him as we kept eating ending the conversation.
"But we're keeping the tradition of lazy Sunday unless the league calls." He told me
"Sure." I said as I finished my breakfast and cleaned my plate went to my room to get out of my pajamas.
"I'll be back in an hour if I'm late call me via my ring. If anything happens I'll call for you." I said as I reached the backyard.
"Okay Sammy have fun, and don't be too bored out there, And return on time" He warned me as I took off.
I reached the stratosphere in a few minutes and reached space, my ring lets me speed up since I'm out in space.
"Okay ring I know you know what I'm looking for so help me search for any Kryptonian life sign as we near the sun."
"Alright Sam." He responded I sped up it took me five minutes to reach Mercury. 'Okay, I'm at mercury the comics said that she was orbiting around the sun for at least 10 years. So if one year in earth is equivalent to four years on mercury; I need to fly around the sun and see if I find the pod.
"Ring any life signs?" I asked my ring.
"No life signs detected."
"Maybe the pod doesn't let me analyze life signs." I said aloud, I began to fly around the sun and look for any signs of the pod with the house of EL on it. 'Maybe she doesn't exist on this universe. But that's wrong its earth 17 where heroes are just beginning their careers.' I kept flying around the sun.
Okay this is boring I've been searching the last 45 minutes for Supergirl. My ring began to beep loudly. "Hey dad." I responded
"Hey Sammy you okay?" He asked me
"Yeah. Why?"
"Well something came up but raincheck on the lazy Sunday, we could maybe have pizza for dinner."
"That would be great dad." I responded
"Oh and when you return home call me. I'll be busy." He told me
"Okay dad good luck." As the call ended, I sighed loudly.
"Maybe she's not around here. I mean her pod would be... In orbit of the sun... Meaning it flies around it. I'm retarded I just need to fly in the x and y axis around the sun." I said as I face palmed.
I neared the sun and stopped until my ring warned me I flew back to avoid a solar flare or something that would kill me. I verified with my ring the safe distance and began to follow the construct of a line that measures the safe distance between me and the suns gravitational pull.
I took both routes but found nothing. "Okay maybe she isn't meant to be in this show. I should head home and spent a lazy Sunday, order pizza and watch a movie and relax." I sighed and turned to fly back to Earth.
"Life sign detected. Kryptonian." My ring told me.
"Where?" I asked immediately
"Its 120 miles to your right heading in this direction." I began to fly there and saw it I was expecting to a silver pod with the S symbol on it, but this is a just a meteorite looking thing.' I suppose it used to be metal but it cauterized the dirt around the pod, well it does look like the ones in the comic book.' It has a little bit of silver and it looks like a green glow underneath meaning it's Kryptonite and powers the pod making it orbit the sun without getting pulled by the gravitational pull. I need to make sure she isn't exposed to the Kryptonite.
"YES! You're here. I need to take you to earth." I told myself as I made a bubble around the pod it should be hot to the touch, so I need to take the pod to the Arctic then I'll dip her there until it cools down.
"Green Lantern to the cave, do you copy cave?" I asked in my ring trying to contact the cave.
"Aqualad here what is it Green lantern?" He asked me.
"Meet me in Alaska, I'll send coordinates of my position gather everyone there is someone you will meet. Maybe a new addition to the team." I told him as I sped up to reach earth.
"Very well Aqualad out." He said as he ended the call.
It took me five minutes to reach Earth again, I landed in Alaska on an abandoned lake. No little towns nearby or life signs around the area, and where sun shines. And it's American soil. I sent my coordinates and dipped the pod into the water near me I heard the distinct hiss of water; I took it out as soon as it stopped.
I placed it in front of me in a snow bank to bury the pod that had kryptonite at the bottom making sure it's not that exposed, and made my face mask vanish and neared the pod.
I knocked on the pod twice and it hissed open the pod had many crystals of different colors, and I saw her, only younger. Her hair short as mine, her face sharp, yet beautiful. 'Wait where did that come from? And why is heart going crazy?'
She's wearing that blue leotard with long sleeves and no pants or shorts, it hugged her form tightly. The leotard had the red in a square at the bottom outlined by yellow and the same shape of the same the shield of El had at the center of the outline. Her with knee-high boots that shows her knees along with the S on her chest on the S is more sharp instead of rounded. The red cape had a gold outline and it wrapped around her neck.
Her chest rose and descended at a normal pace. I kept staring at her chest its hypnotic, and shes pretty. 'Wait what? I have seen women… but why is it different with her?' I looked to my arm and it glowed pink.
'Oh come on! Again? But I was interrupted by the sound of movement coming from the pod.
I turned to Supergirl stir awake her eyes slowly opening and closing slowly trying to orientate herself. I decided to not make a sound, until she sat up. I walked slowly to her and tried to sound nonthreatening for her to not see me as a threat.
She looked at me with confusion and then at my chest, as I saw her eyes stay in my chest I placed my arm around them as I felt my face getting hotter. She began to speak but it's an entire different language I have never heard that language, she looked frustrated.
"Ring translate." I said to my ring.
"Who are you? Where Am I? ANSWER ME!" She demanded angrily taking a defensive stance and glared at me.
"Don't worry, I found you orbiting the sun. I'm here to help you." I told her trying to calm her down.
"I don't trust you. What is your name?" She told me.
"My name is Samantha Parthenon; I'm a green lantern you know. Cop of space?" I responded.
"What planet is this, why am I not cold?" She asked me.
"Oh this is planet Earth. You were asleep." I Said honestly.
"Asleep, for how long? What is Earth? What happened to me? To krypton?" She asked me
"I don't know how much time you were asleep. I was patrolling around the sun until my ring detected your life signature. This is planet Earth, where humans live, and coexist in this world." I responded her blue hypnotic eyes were looking straight at me.
"How do you know Kryptonian? And what happened to krypton? ANSWER ME!" She screamed
"Calm down, I'm here to help you. Well this ring has a universal translator, meaning I can understand you and you can understand me. As for krypton it was… destroyed thirty years ago, its planet core became too unstable and the planet blew up. I believe you and Superman are the only survivors." I told her grimly, she looked at her legs, which I could stare at them with her all day. 'Head out of the gutter.' I thought trying to not think like that.
'She needs help.'
"I don't know what to say; yesterday I remember it was yesterday. I saw my cousin Kal'el as a baby three days ago. Oh Rao what happened to him, my father, my mother, my friends." She said as she began to cry, that made my heart ache; she looks lost and lonely.
I walked to her and hugged her, I hope she doesn't hug means or else she'll break me.
"Hey, I know how it feels. I lost all my family the most important people to me are no longer with me. But they live on." I sat down next to her and placed my forehead against hers. Doing that always calmed my sister when she cried for mom when she had nightmares.
"They live on in our actions; they live on our lives, on our memories, and last but not least in our names." I told her as I placed a finger on the S above her heart. That made her stop crying after a few minutes, she calmed down. I heard people walking here, and she covered her ears, as the sky cleared sun rays began fall on us. 'Looks like she discovered her powers.'
"What is happening? Something... something's wrong. Somethings wrong with the sun. I can hear everything. Make it stop. Please... I don't feel the cold and what am I wearing?" She told me as she closed her eyes and covered her ears. I decided to make a cube around us soundproof.
I took her face by my hands and made her look straight at me, as she slowly took her hands off her ears.
"Look at me, focus on my voice. Ignore everything else, focus on me and tell me. What do you hear?" I told her keeping eye contact.
"I can hear your blood flowing through you, your lungs expanding, your heart beating." She told me.
"Okay, now you need to focus on my voice ignore everything else. Can you focus on my voice?" I asked her she nodded slowly.
"Very well, now answer me this question. What is your name?" Her eyes not leaving mine.
"My name is Kara Zor'El." She responded.
"How old are you?"
"I'm fifteen years old." She responded.
"Very good, are you better?" I asked her she nodded.
"Now I will lower the barrier, and I want you to focus on my voice and my voice only. Okay?" I asked her as I let go of her face, she took both my wrist. 'Her grip is like steel.'
"Ouch! Calm down, you're hurting me." I told her as she gripped my wrists. Her eyes widened and let go of me.
"I'm sorry, I don't know what is happening and your hands on my face kept me talk please don't move them." Her voice trembling I moved both hands to her face again.
"It's okay, it's part of the learning curve. Once you control your hearing you will, hear my story of how much I failed trying to learn to fly." I told her as my hands returned to her face and lowered the construct.
"Now you need to focus on my voice and only my voice, there is no rush; patience. You need to learn to control this, and tell me if it's too much so we return to the soundproof." I told her she nodded.
"Now Kara I want you to tell me, what your favorite color is. And what is your favorite number." 'I need to ask her trivial things so she could answer easily and focus only on my voice.'
"Well my favorite color is blue and green. And my favorite number, I actually don't have one." She responded as she looked straight at me.
"Next question, can you say my name?" I asked her, trying to think of simple questions.
It was... uh Sa..." She was trying to remember my name.
"Sama…" I told her giving her a little help.
"Sam…antha? Yeah… Samantha." my name in her sweet confused voice, melted my insides.
"Are you better now? Do you feel like you can control it?" I asked her.
"Yeah a little, thank you so much. You helped me a lot, I struggle a lot but I need to constantly focus. Who is superman? You talk about and how am I not older looking?" She said as she calmed down.
"Maybe that can be explained in the pod? And Superman he wears the same symbol on his chest just like you." I said as I pointed at her symbol.
"The pod?" She asked curiously.
"Yeah where were currently sitting at." I told her, she looked around her but stopped when she looked over my shoulder.
"Who are they?" She asked me, I looked behind me to see everyone of the team staring at me.
"How long have you been there?" I asked them
"We just got here." Robin told me, as Kid Flash gawked at Supergirl, everyone else looked shocked. I looked at Superboy, his eyes were wide like plates.
"Um... who is she?" Artemis asked me, signaling at Kara.
"She is Kara Zor'El..."
"Wait like Kal'El? She.." Robin said
"KAL'EL YOU KNOW MY COUSIN? HOW DO YOU KNOW HIM?" Kara yelled, interrupting him.
"I didn't understood what she just said." Robin complained.
"Oh right, translator. She said how do you know her cousin Kal'El?" I translated what she said.
"Oh that's Superman's name. Kryptonian name." Robin said. 'I would've told her but no one has told me that information. So I kept quiet.'
"He says he's Superman." I told her she brightened up.
"Can I meet him?" She asked me.
"Yeah, you can. Do you trust me?" I asked her as I got up from the pod and extended my hand.
"Yes, but how do I know you won't hurt me?" She asked me.
"You don't, but hey trust comes from somewhere right? Besides you're pretty, I would never harm someone as beautiful as you." I told her as she took my hand, I felt electricity as she touched me, both of us let go. My heart rate began to rise and I think we both felt that. I extended my hand again smiling, I'm pretty sure my face is as red a tomato, but she looked the same. She grabbed my hand again that electricity was there again but it stopped.
"Let's see if you can fly." I asked her as she stood up, she looked uncertainty at me; I began to fly slowly as my feet left the ground.
"Come on focus on lifting yourself, think of yourself as weightless and picture yourself moving." I told her, she closed her eyes and exhaled slowly she lifted slowly of the ground.
"There we go. Hey guys meet you at the cave and I believe she has someone to meet." I told them, as I turned to Kara who was looking down.
"Oh Rao this is amazing. I can't believe this it's incredible never have I thought that I would be flying it's something I never thought about." She said excitedly as she looked around her.
"It's awesome right, but before we leave I need to take the pod with us." I told her as I made a bubble construct to carry the pod.
"Be careful, please." She told me as I carried the pod.
"Don't worry; I will move it with the utmost care. Stay back this thing has Kryptonite; really poisonous to Kryptonians." I told as I lifted the pod slowly and began to surround it with constructs and placed it far away from her.
"Thank you so much." She said smiling.
"Come on, you have someone to meet." I smiled at her.
"Oh and let's take it slow we don't want you to fly into a plane or a bird." I added as we began to fly.
"Hey umm Samantha." Kara asked me as we flew over British Columbia.
"Yeah, what's up?"
"Who was that boy in the white shirt, he had the symbol for the house of El."
"Oh, that's Superboy. He is a clone of Superman, your cousin he is really strong. Actually the strongest one there is. And that makes him a target. He is lost, right now; he is Kryptonian or well half Kryptonian but he is trying to find himself in this lonely world. He looks for guidance in your cousin; but your cousin is adamant to help him." I told her.
"In my world, clones were a prohibited practice. Cloning someone was illegal."
"Is, Superboy. He didn't asked to be created; he was made to fight superman. To be a weapon, but now he is free. He doesn't have to follow commands, I think you could be a guide on your culture." I told her, she looked confused to say the least.
"But... He's a clone an abomination!" She exclaimed. 'I knew this would happen.'
"But what happens when an abomination, gets lost? When that monster is free of commands to hurt people?" I asked her she looked doubtful.
"I'm not saying you should right away help him, I believe trust starts somewhere; and that somewhere begins with a single word." I told her so she could think.
"What word is that?" She asked me, I looked back to see the bioship behind us.
"Catch up with me and I might tell you." I said playfully as I sped up, she slowly caught up to me as we passed over Montana.
"There I caught up. Now tell me; pretty please?" She said as she struggled to fly steadily.
"I told you I might." I told her in a cheeky tone.
"You're a cheater." She puffed out.
"No, I'm not. But you called me pretty so I can tell it to you." I said smiling at her, She looked confused but smiling at me.
"What is it tell me? I can call you pretty again if you want." That made my face completely warm; and for the first time I heard her laugh. Her laugh sounded so cute, yet beautiful. It was something I could hear all day. 'Is this what love-struck means?'
"I uh ah, umm... would like that; but the word is "hello". That's where trust begins with that single word." I blabbered out trying to not make a fuss of her calling me pretty.
"...That makes sense. But I'm not sure how he would react. He is a clone, an abomination. But he wasn't asked to be made he's now free. I think he could learn a lot from you; and where he comes from. All you need to say is "Hello" " I told her ending the conversation.
"This place is beautiful." She said as she stopped and looked at the coast, and the mountain.
"Yeah, it is." I said looking at her eyes. 'What is wrong with me?' I need to hit my head against something to figure things out. Where are these thoughts coming from?'
My train of thought was stopped as the bioship passed over us. 'Oh right, think later, now we need to get to the cave. Then I can smack my head against a wall for a few minutes.'
"Umm... should we you know... follow them?" Kara asked me confused.
"...Yeah, that... let's do that." I stuttered out. 'Oh god I'm a mess.'
We landed on the hangar where the bioship is usually stored, I placed the pod beside the bioship still covering it with a barrier since it had kryptonite at the bottom of the ship. Everyone was unboarding the ship in their normal colored uniforms and stood in front of us.
"So GL... She ... is ... superman's cousin... she looks fifteen... krypton was destroyed three decades ago." Robin told me as she looked at Kara.
"I'm not complaining, she looks around my age." Kid Flash said as he ran and took Kara's hand.
"Kid Flash fastest teen on earth, a pleasure meeting someone as beautiful as you." He added as he bowed with her hand on his. I felt a pang of jealousy and my eyes narrowed at him.
"I don't understand what you said, but hello my name is Kara." Kara said as she shook his hand and Kid Flash returned to stand up straight.
"I didn't understand what you said, but I think it's something like in angel." Kid Flash said dreamily.
"Yeah..." I said in a longing tone, I turned to everyone who was looking at me weirdly I coughed awkwardly." Superboy you might wanna stand back. Oh and Kara you also might want to stand back, the bottom half has Kryptonite according to my ring." I said as I saw Kara stand back.
"I already called superman, and he is on his way." Aqualad said as I saw Kara say an awkward hello to Superboy.
"Powering down." I announced as I powered down the construct.
"Whoa this looks so advanced, information stored in crystals. I'm sure superman knows how to operate them." Robin said in amazement.
"SUPERBOY! KARA!" Megan cried out, I turned to see both of them panting and heaving in pain. I reacted quickly and took the pod in a construct and placed several layers of the same construct until I saw both of them get better.
"You might wanna hold onto that. And place it somewhere safe until Batman arrives." Robin said as Megan and Aqualad began to help Kara and Superboy walk into the cave.
"Where can we store the pod? Without harming someone." I asked.
"I don't know, we need a heavily armored wall recovered by lead. And for that we need batman; for now we need to wait." Robin said as he looked at the pod through the construct.
"You know GL, how did you know she was there?" Robin asked me.
"Because I'm not from this earth, I come from one where the world we live in is a TV show and I thought she might be orbiting the sun in pod." I said deadpanned, he began to laugh.
"No really, how did you find her?" He asked me.
"I was patrolling by myself around the sun, and my ring detected a life sign. With a kryptonian match, the pod looks really small and has a small glass that isn't cauterized with dirt. And looked at her she looks really young, and brought her to earth since she might be the last female kryptonian." I responded his question looking the green glow bellow the pod.
"That's true, hey GL is the contrary to destruction. Truction? Or protraction as it is a positive pronoun." Robin asked changing the topic.
"Truction doesn't exist, you're looking for construction." I responded.
"What was that about Kara. You looked so... I don't know... Wally?" Robin asked me.
"I uh ah, umm. I don't know what you're talking about." I responded he snickered and after that we stood there in an awkward silence for about a minute we didn't have anything to tell each other.
"It's cool you know, that you..." Robin began.
"Oh god I don't wanna talk about it. So shut up before I squash you with the pod." I interrupted him.
"I'm just saying she's pretty cute you know. Maybe you could be a good couple." Robin said in a teasing tone.
"OH. MY. GOD. " I yelled at him as he began running.
"Soooo Samantha." Came a singsong voice from the stairs.
"Oh god not you too Artemis. I was waiting for you to say something, I lost sight of you after everyone disembarked the bioship." I told her.
"So liking the new girl, just like Wally." She said to me.
"That's it I'm gonna die out of embarrassment. That could make it to a list. "Top ten ridiculous ways to die." Yeah I can picture that."
"You would be rated like the second or third in that list." She told me, we began laughing.
"Recognized Batman 0 2." The computer announced.
"Guess that's our call, oh and Samantha it's cool and really funny to see you being a mess over a girl. It can only be described as ... Wally." Artemis said running away.
"Oh you're so gonna get it." I said but I couldn't run after her with all the constructs surrounding the pod.
I was waiting for Batman to tell me what to do since I can't get out of the bay without making harm to Superboy and Kara. 'What the hell is wrong with me? I really need to think this through, but for that I need some time to myself. And not having a construct.'
"Samantha." A rough voice sounded behind me.
"Oh hey boss. What's up?"
"First off. What is another Kryptonian doing in the cave's living room and a Pod laced with enough kryptonite to kill Superman if he were to place a foot in this place, your construct is barely enough for it to not harm the Kryptonians here. Second how did you find a pod that was orbiting the sun and how have we not detected this lifeform. And thirdly what were you doing in the sun." Batman asked, I thought about telling him the same truth but that would be disastrous.
"Okay I know this is bad, and weird and confusing but don't freak out."
"I don't. Freak out."
"Oh that was for myself." He narrowed his cowl and grumbled.
"The kryptonians name is Kara Zor'El and she's fifteen. From the pods damage looks like it has been orbiting the sun since krypton was destroyed. I don't know the story behind her pod orbiting the sun, but I know that the pod is powered by Kryptonite. I was patrolling outer space and as I was near the sun my ring detected the life form I spent around 45 minutes looking for it but I found her by chance... and a little bit of math. Oh and I was there because Hal let me patrol from Earth to the sun." I told him.
"That makes sense. Very well, that pod we need to transport it somewhere safe that doesn't affect kryptonians here." Batman said.
"Wait but Kara says that the pod contains answers, when I cooled the pod in an abandoned lake in Alaska. Yes I know the pod could've done something to the environment, but I made sure it was alone enough and after that I placed it in snow." He looked smug at me.
"You did good, good work. Also did you calculate the " He said as he began to walk away.
"Wait before you leave, do you think the big guy could finally get his head out of his ass and talk to Superboy? And what will happen with Kara. Where will she stay?"
"She will stay here at the cave she needs to learn to control her abilities." That made my smile grow.
"Store the pod in the bioship." It can contain the radiation, he said as he walked away towards the main room. I sighed in relief as I stored the pod in the bioship. 'I hope that she's not swarmed by Kid Flash trying to impress her. Why am I thinking this?'
"God what is wrong with me?" I said aloud as I walked through the hallway to find where everyone was, I powered down to my regular clothes. My blue skinny jeans, my light blue T-shirt, and the short leather jacket I bought recently along with my black fingerless leather gloves. Hal being in the Justice league and the air force he gets enough to sustain both of us. I don't ask for much, and Hal knows it; I'm going to go to Gotham academy by a full scholarship, but he could pay for that education.
'I wonder if she would like what I'm wearing.' I stopped right then and there. 'Where are those thoughts coming from?' I thought as I stood there in the hallway. looking straight at the main room.
'Okay, let's rewind a bit or a lot. Okay. What do I like about men? I like their style, their voices rough yet kind, the tone of their eyes smart and goody, their muscles... and that's it. Am I really attracted to girls? Okay. What do I like about women? I like their voices sweet yet kind, their eyes and how they shine with intelligence and playfulness, and their bodies... and that's it. I could go on and on, on both cases. The most logical is that I like both men and women, I mean when I'm with Kaldur my heartrate goes to like a hundred, my stomach churns, his eyes area as bright as the sea with that hidden intelligence, and I feel like I could be with him all day. With Kara I become a blabbering mess, do things Wally would do and say, I could look at her the entire day and don't care, her eyes shine with that curiousness about this world... but I remember that Aqualad was gay in the comics, but here he likes Fishgirl which later dies...' I thought remembering as the hologram that displayed the Tula as a fallen hero who gave her life away to save everyone.
'And Kara was really good friends with Siobhan Smythe who would later become Silver Banshee; it was heavily implied that they were dating but they never said anything to each other after she became a red lantern. But Kara in the comics has had boyfriends like H'el who was like a villain and the other guy Captain Comet... But what if this is different, is Kara gonna be interested in me? Or Kaldur would return my feelings? He invited me on a date, but that doesn't exactly mean that he likes me. He could still be gay and he hasn't realized it. And Kara is just out of the pod into this world, what if Futures End becomes true. Those issues were tough, Hal dying, Kyle dying, guy becoming a blue lantern, and john killed the star sapphire he loved and later killed indigo 1 thus he become the next indigo 1.'
I massaged the bridge of my nose. 'Thinking so much is gonna give me a headache; having no knowledge from this world is annoying. Since the timeline is just beginning. I'll think about it later, right now I believe I know kinda who I am; I still need to learn, still need to see if I'm bi or gay or straight. Right now I would like to be with Kara.' I began to walk towards the kitchen where I knew everyone would be.
"Hey guys. What's up?" I said as Kara was sitting in the couch and Megan had her hands on her head while looking towards Kara who had her eyes closed, my heart I felt what I assume is skipping a beat. I smacked my chest where my heart is several times as I cleared my throat. Everyone was looking at what both of them were doing. 'Oh right, Kara learned English after fighting that Simon Tycho she received a psychic feedback so strong that she learnt to speak English. So I assume that is what they're doing.'
They stopped a few seconds later, with Megan removing her hands from her head and opening her eyes.
"There, I think that's how it's done. Can you understand me?" Megan asked her with a hopeful tone.
"I'm not sure it's like I know how to speak but I didn't learn by myself... wait I understood you!" Kara said surprise her English diction is perfect and her voice in English is so ho... 'NO. BAD THOUGHTS.' I said in my head stopping that train of thought.
"Yeah we understand you, thanks Miss M." Robin said but Kid Flash began to speak I began to walk toward where he was seated.
"Gotta say your English is really good. I would love to teach you all about thiff..." I interrupted him by plancing my hand on his face and pushed him back.
"I would love to teach you about this world... by love I mean I would like you... by like I mean that I … I can … uh… I can teach you about this world. Yeah... that." I said 'Oh now I'm a mess in two languages.'
"Dude!" Kid flash complained.
"I think I would like that." Kara replied coyly my face felt completely warm. I heard Artemis snicker, I looked at Aqualad who had a questioning look.
"Recognized Superman 0 1." The computer announced.
"Kara you ready to meet you cousin?" Robin asked her.
"My baby cousin? Yeah I think." She said cautiously.
We walked into the main room to see Batman and Superman talking to each other.
"Kal'El?" Kara spoke aloud; both began talking as superman responded in what I assume Kryptonian.
"Ring translate for me." I whispered into my ring.
"Kara that wasn't three days ago, that was thirty years ago."
"But that's impossible, I mean I carried you as a baby. It has to be some joke! I can't believe this." Kara stammered.
"Kara, I'm telling you the truth. Please you need to believe me... deep down I know you believe this. Krypton's core became unstable and the planet was destroyed." Superman spoke as he hugged her she began crying.
"But... mom dad... my friends." She spoke as she began to cry.
"I'm sorry Kara I really am but there is no records of any kryptonian surviving that explosion." Superman said in a defeated tone.
"But, what about you. How did you survive." She asked.
"I was sent here as a baby, I grew under this yellow sun. This sun provides us powers, powers that we can use for good of the people." Kara stopped crying.
"The sun, I knew something was wrong with the sun." She said as she cleaned her tears, my heart was in pain of seeing her in pain.
"Yes the sun here is yellow giving us kryptonians powers." Superman said motioning to her and Superboy.
"I think, you can learn from him and he can learn from you. These powers are a gift, and with my help and his help you both could achieve greatness. Besides I think you can give krypton a good name around the world, but first you must learn to control your powers." He told her Kara turned around as I was touching were here hands gripped mine, it hurt I pushed back my sleeves and looked at my forearms they were bruised in shapes of hands; her hands actually. I heard a gasp coming from her.
"Here you can learn how to control them; right now you're a danger to everyone around you. When you control them, you can go out into the world; and help people" Superman said placing a hand on her shoulder Kara looked at her feet.
"Alright I will stay to learn, but where will I live?" Kara asked him.
"You can stay here, I'm sure there's a lot of rooms."
"Alright, but I have so many questions about this world. What do you eat? Why am I not hungry? I haven't eaten in thirty years, only I'm kinda tired." Kara said as she yawned, giving a cute squeak at the end. 'Oh god that was so cute.'
"Green Lantern, can you show Kara to her room?" Superman spoke to me in English.
"Yes." I responded but I since I didn't turned off the translator everyone was looking at me weirdly. "Oh right." I responded powering off completely.
"I mean, I can show you around only I don't know what room is left and what room is occupied." I said aloud hoping that Megan, or Superboy or Kaldur would help me.
"I know of one that you could use." Superboy responded as we began to walk towards the individual rooms.
"You were listening to us." Kara said in English.
"Yeah, but it's not like you were talking in secret." I responded.
"Since when do you know kryptonian Sam?" Superboy asked me.
"Oh I don't, I would love to learn but the ring can translate any language in the universe." I responded as we reached the doors.
"Here is one that is empty; it has a bed and a bathroom. I uh think you can work with this. My room is that one." Superboy said motioning to the door beside the one I knew was Kaldur's.
"Aqualad's room is beside mine and M'gann's room is the one in front of my room. And the one next is yours." Superboy said motioning to the door that we were standing beside.
"Thanks, a lot. I was hoping you would... you know... help me later... with my powers... you know?" Kara asked at Superboy who stammered back, he always looks angry but this time he looks like he has a soft spot for her.
"Yeah... uh I can teach you with superstrenght. That's a hard one to control." Superboy told her, she smiled brightly; but now that I see her smile closely I can see pain behind it she's wearing a mask hiding all that pain.
"Well let's check out your room." I told her as I opened the door since she would just crush the door plate; Superboy's plate looks kinda dented. The room is completely empty, it has only four regular walls painted white, a door that leads to a bathroom and two wooden doors that I knew were the doors to the closet.
I closed the door as Kara looked around. "It's cozy yet simple." I told her looking on the bright side.
"Yeah, it's... different. Can I be alone; I'm kinda tired you know." Kara said her face faltering. 'She's about to break down.'
"Alright, I think Superboy can help you if you don't wake before I leave I'll see you here tomorrow. Alright?" I told her in a cautious tone.
"Alright." She said nodding, I didn't know until it was too late. I was hugging Kara with all my strength; it's like hugging steel, that breathes and it's alive, and beautiful.
"I understand how you feel I really do... if you need help don't ever doubt asking for my help. I need you to promise that." I told her as she just placed her hands on my back without applying strength.
"I promise." She said as she let go, I released the hug and left the room before looking at her one last time.
"What am I doing? I like her and Kaldur but I really like her too. God this is so confusing." I said aloud as I walked to the main room to discuss what would happen.
"I can only hope that she feels like I feel for her or that Kaldur does the same for me. Loneliness is never something you want to carry alone." I sighed and walked back to the main room of the cave.
"What the fuck am I going to do?"
AN: So yeah, I wanted to introduce Supergirl as a character. In the new 52 comics she was different from the different representations she had previously in the comics since it began since she reached earth in a pod. But her story was never set as the new 52 super titles were crossovers, which was really annoying if you were trying to read them. So I read about what universe was this and according to SourcefedNerd young justice is on earth 17 where no big storylines have passed like the Blackest night, He'l on earth, Sinestro Wars, Rise of the third army, or even, I believe crisis on infinite earth happened since its earth 17 and but I have my doubts on flashpoint since after flashpoint the blackest night already happened, and the new 52 was a relaunch after that. Well I mean not mayor events, but I mean they haven't even made mention of big storylines in DC comics. But I'm taking the origins of the new 52 since it's one of the most common places to take origins from, and it was either this origin for supergirl or the WB TV show and that would've been disastrous.
Oh and all the information from supergirl I got it out of literally issues, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 28. And how she learns English I took it out of her team up with powergirl I believe issues 17 or 18 of the new 52.
