Chapter 10: The Emissary

Metropolis, Kansas. The Young woman moved with Super speed down the lonely highway. It was dark and she was here with a specific purpose. She had been sent by Jor-El to seek out a human to become his Emissary should anything happen to Krypton. The Earth year was 1982, and the woman's name was Raya and she was the assistant to Jor-El. She even had a name. Lionel Luthor. She wondered why Her friend and co-worker would choose such a deceptive man to become his Emissary. She had also known that this would be her last time having a body since She was handpicked by the Ruling Council to be the Guardian of The Phantom Zone.

She arrived at the LuthorCorp plaza with much hesitation in her mind. She had known about what the woman Elizabeth Knight had done to Jor-El and she had been there when Jor-El confessed it to his new wife Lara, daughter of Zod. Lara had forgiven him, but she clearly wasn't happy about it either. Raya had been chosen by the Ruling Council to replace the previous assistant to Jor-El, since the previous assistant had joined the military branch on Krypton. Raya had been chosen for her wisdom and her knowledge of all scientific fact and reason. But now on this alien world full of humanoid beings, she knew she would have to hurry considering the drop ship would be coming back to Shuster Field soon.

She saw him at his desk as the elevator opened. She saw a woman looking over plans for a truck that would be built partially with LuthorCorp funds. Lionel looked up.

"Yes?" He asked wondering how the woman got passed his guards.

"Lionel Luthor I have been sent to speak with you in private. You will ask the woman to leave, now," Raya said. Lionel then nodded to the young woman.

"Would you excuse us, Elizabeth?" Lionel said. The woman, Elizabeth Knight looked at Raya's body and remarked, "What I wouldn't give for a body like yours." Then left.

"What is it you want, Miss-" He stopped in mid-sentence as the woman had not identified herself.

"My name is Raya and where I come from is not important if that is what your thinking. I was sent here by my superior to make a deal with you. You like a deal don't you?" Raya asked as she removed her bracelet from around her wrist. It was both a device that would seal the deal and a phantom Zone projector.

"What kind of deal are we talking about here?" Lionel asked as he stood up and sat on the edge of the desk.

"Where I come from may be gone shortly after I return, and my superior would like to use you as his Emissary to this planet. It is prophesied where I come from that a shower of a dead world would rain down here on Earth in a few years by Earth reckoning. There would be one survivor. A boy. His family that he would stay with during his Exodus has already been chosen. You are to become a treasure of knowledge and wisdom from my home. That is the deal I have been authorized to make. You would be able to advance this world's technology due to the access that I am granting you. But you will not have access to this knowledge until after the 'rain of Fire from the sky' that has been prophesied in a few years from now. I need your agreement or else a great and mighty people will perish and our wisdom and literature would die with it. Everything we cherish along with the customs we adopted from Earth will be gone. The child that is coming must know what where he comes from. You will aid him," Raya said. She then touched the man's wrist with the bracelet.

Krypton city, the planet Krypton-Jor-El felt the power fill him. The knowledge of Earth and Lionel's most deep dark secrets filled his mind as his own thoughts and plans flowed a million miles away to the human Lionel Luthor. The two men regardless of time and space, had become one. Lionel had become the Emissary of Jor-El's spirit should anything happen to the heroic scientist.
