Title – A visit from a fellow Kryptonian
Chapter 2
XXX - Before the crash
"Kam-El You must find him, it is your duty,"
"I will," I said for the fifteenth time.
"Bring him here, he is the only one that can help us,"
"I will find him," I said getting annoyed.
"Good," He turned and walked off, that sure was some goodbye. I can't believe that I have to find Kal-El. It's not my fault he went missing in the first place. They were the ones that sent him off not me. I'm just the one that gets stuck with the clean-up. Gosh, I wish I wasn't so nice, I mean, really, I always say yes, why can't Iever say no. I let the babbling in my head continue until I got onto the ship. It was a small little ship that survived and now I have to be the one to fly off in it and find Kal-El and any other Kryptonians. It turned the ship on auto pilate and went to search the stars for any Kryptonians. Unfortunatly I had to look far and long to find one. I hope it's Kal-El so I can just go home and rest for ever, maybe even longer.
I was about a day away from the planet where the Kryptonian was so I decided to relax. I walked over to the large mirror and smiled, even if I was gone a long time I still looked nice. My long dark brown almost black hair hung almost down to my waist and my blue eyes looked like crystal clear water. Man, I am really getting a big head.
BEEP BEEP BEEP
"Oh no," I said as I rushed to the controls. The ship was loosing power. Man How I wished I knew how to fix this thing. It was loosing speed and altitude. "Where's that cloaking device?" I asked myself getting fusterated. "Oh, here," I said as I pressed the big red button that said in large letters CLOAKING DEVICE. Man was I stupied. The ship cloaked but it wasn't going to make it. It began to plumet to the surface of the planet. I looked at the scanner so I knew which planet I was probably going to die on and it read in large letters (do they think I'm blind, I can read) EARTH. The light next to the scanner was flashing meaning there was a Kryptonian on this planet. (Thank goodness). The ship was getting closer to the surface as I brased for the crash and then it came. The ship hit the ground hard and nearley elploded. Thanks to my Kryptoinian blood and powers I wasn't that hurt but there were a few scratches. I pushed the rubble off of me and climbed out of the ship onto the ground.
"That's the last time I do my people a favor," I said as I brushed off my clothes.
"Hey! Are you alright?" A man yelled running towards me. Atleast I speak this language.
"Um, yeah, I'm fine," I said as he approched.
"Let me help you," He put out his hand for me to take and I hesitated but took it. "What happened?"
"I, I, don't know," I lied.
"Let me help you get cleaned up," He offered. At first I didn't want to but I agreed by nodding. I did need to get cleaned up.
"Thanks,"
"Your welcome," He smiled as he led me to a large white house. "I'm Oliver Queen by the way," He said with a smile.
"I'm uh," I didn't want to give him my Kryptonian name and I hadn't thought of an alias to go by so I plaed stuiped.
"You do have a name right?" He asked and I shrugged.
"I don't remember, my name," I lied.
"What should I call you then?" He asked and I didn't respond. "How about I give you something until you remember," He smiled and I nodded. At least he would know a name that would work on this planet since it looked like I might be stuck here a while. "How about..." He paused to think then smiled. "Demi?" He looked at me and I smiled. I liked it, it wasn't a typical name and it sounded really nice. So I smiled and nodded.
"I like that," I said and he smiled.
"Good, Demi it is," He walked into the room to the far right and pulled out a shirt and a pair of paints. He looked at them for a moment then handed them to me. "Here, these should fit," He smiled and I took them and he directed me to the bathroom (well that's what he called it). I changed and then headed back to him. "Good, they fit," He said with a smile as he took my old clothes and threw them into a basket.
"Thanks for everything but I really should be going," I insisted but he grabbed my forearm.
"Wait, do you have anywhere to stay?" He asked and I shook my head. "You are more then welcome to stay here," He offered. I concidered for a moment and smiled since he looked like he was about to beg.
"For a few days, I really have to find someone,"
"Who? Maybe I can help," He said. I was wondering why he was being so kind, I didn't expect anything like this on any planet, not even my people were this nice (I should know, right?) I concidered letting him help me. I mean it's not like the computers survived the crash and I was on a large planet he might be able to help.
"He's an old friend, my family and I have been looking for him for years, he went missing when I was very young but we really need to find them," I said, it wasn't a total lie, some was true. "I don't know where he is though. I have an idea but I'm not sure," I said and he nodded.
"I can help," He smiled.
"Thanks," I said with a smile. He showed me to my room and then he went to sleep. After a while I headed back to my shipp hopeing to find something that survived. "Oh thank goodness," I said as I saw some of the computers had survived. ortunatly this was something I was good at. I reconnected a few of the wires and was able to find the aproximate location of Kal-El. I was also able to fix the communications system so I could contact my people if I had to. I was off to a semi-good start. I mean it's not like everything is perfect, I'm still stuck here and I still need to find him but Ihad some of the computers and some help so that was defiantly a plus. I hope that I will be able to find him fast and maybe get home, I'm not counting on it.
