Chapter 2: Washington DC.
1941, Washington, D.C. A flash of light flared and three people arrived near the White House. The three people that arrived were Trinity Jean Knight, half-sister to Clark Kent, Davis Bloome, The Son of General Zod who had been sent to Earth on the Kryptonian ship that brought the Last Son Of Krypton to Earth and Kal-El, The Last Son Of Krypton who had been sent to Earth from the dying planet of Krypton to Earth in the year 1989. But this trio was not here to sight see, but they were here on a mission. They knew what they had to do, which was to discover what Darkseid's plans in the past during WWII and how that would affect the future where this trio had come from. Clark removed the time displacement unit that he had in his cape's pouch. He then removed his clothes and used his super speed and switched from his Superman costume to become "Clark Kent" again.
"We have a problem, guys," Clark said. He stared at his sister who was absorbing solar energy from the sun which was healing her. Davis stared at his enemy turned ally.
"And what's that problem, Kal-El," Davis asked. Clark began to move around with the displacement scanner in hand. He then pointed to the DNA matrix which was Kryptonian.
"The problem is General Maya Zod is here with some of her foot soldiers here on Earth. She came with Mon-El to discover how The Darkness had come to Earth. She has disguised herself as a doctor in this time. She works in the White House. We need to get to the White House and talk to her without revealing our powers or the fact that we are from Krypton," Clark said. Trinity shook her head.
"Uh brother, I am not from Krypton. My powers may have come from Jor-El but I was born here on Earth before the Meteor Shower ever hit Smallville. You and Zod and Mr. Bloome may have come from Krypton, but I was born on Earth by an Earth woman," Trinity protested. Clark smiled.
"& it is because you were born of Jor-El of Krypton that Maya may detect that you are Krypton. Since there are three different sets of Kryptonian DNA that she can detect we must be careful," Clark again warned. She nodded. They used their super speed to make their way to the House of Representatives. Trinity then removed her FBI badge which she had in her back pocket.
"Chloe suggested I keep my badge just in case if I needed it," Trinity said. "I don't see how that's going to help us," Davis said. Trinity then pointed to the security guards and Secret Service men. She walked up to one of the security guards.
"Agent, what brings you to Washington?" One Secret Service agent asked.
"I need to speak with President Roosevelt," She said. She motioned to Clark and Davis.
"These men are with me. They are a part of a special task force researching the President for The Daily Planet. They wanted to visit with President Roosevelt about the attack on Pearl Harbor," Trinity said. The secret service stared at her as if she was crazy.
"Come in, please," The secret service agent said. The agent ushered them before a special session of Congress. She passed a calendar which read the date as December 6, 1941.
"Young Lady I want to know how you would know of an attack on Pearl Harbor." Congressman Atkins asked Trinity as she, Clark and Davis were sat down before a 10 member team of Republicans and Democrats. A young woman stood watching in the background.
"The Japanese Empire will attack Pearl Harbor tomorrow at 06:05 to prevent the United States from becoming involved in the Empire's efforts of taking over parts of Asia for its War efforts," Trinity said. The woman moved forward.
"What is your name, Agent?" She asked.
"Trinity Jean Knight. Who are you, miss?" Trinity answered. Trinity stared at her suspiciously.
The woman stared at the other men in the room. She glared at each of them. Clark stared at her then gasped.
"You're Maya Zod," he said. He then felt the woman slap him hard.
"How do you know that name, human," She asked, roaring at the top of her lungs.
"Because I am the Last Son of Krypton. My team and I were sent her to discover how the darkness came here," Clark said.
"Gentlemen, I am invoking code 671. Please leave," She said simply. The congressmen left wondering who or where Krypton was. She closed the door and stared at the two men and one woman.
"Who are you? And what houses do you come from?" Maya asked. Clark stood up.
"I am Kal-El of the House of El. My sister, Trinity Jean Knight is also of the House of El but she was also born of a human mother. My other friend also happens to be Kryptonian but He is from the House of Zod. He is your direct descendant. Meet Davis Bloome, son of General Ben-Joi Zod, General of Krypton's armies before its destruction. He & I are alternatively known as the Traveler. But He is also prophesied to be known as Doomsday," Clark said. She stepped back as she heard this news.
"There are scrolls of prophecies about all three of you. One prophecy is of a proposed Last Son of Krypton who would travel to this very planet. The Science council has been discovering what House he would come from. This is incredible news. The other prophecy is of a being born of both Earth and Krypton who would keep our history alive. And lastly the Destroyer from one House whose sole mission is to destroy another House. How can this Paramedic be The Destroyer," She said shocked to see these parts of Kryptonian prophecies standing there where she could touch them.
"You have a DNA scanner that Mon-El gave you correct? Use it to test all three of us," Clark suggested. Maya unclipped the small device and began to scan Clark, Trinity & Davis on a cellular level.
"What is this broken DNA strand mean, Mr. Bloome," Maya asked. Davis walked over and she gestured to it.
"It means that I am the one who would destroy the House of El. Two of its members stand before you. I was a genetic experiment created by my father after Kal-El's biological father refused to clone General Zod's son. He sought to recreate his son genetically but put a genetic mimic device in my genome to allow me to walk as a human so I would not be discovered. It was prophesied that after the destruction of the House of El, the humans on Earth would attempt to kill me. Clark's right. Your descendant Major Zod attached my genetic makeup onto Kal-El's ship where I was discovered by LuthorCorp at the time of the crash of Kal-El's ship on Earth in the Terran year 1989. Trinity was born into wealth here on Earth thanks to being born into a rich billionaire's family. It seems one Wilton Knight's wife got herself impregnated by a stranger who was seeking to go to Smallville Kansas to warn a farmer about a coming Meteor Shower in the 1980's," Davis said.
"How do you know this?" Maya asked. Clark smiled.
"He has been gathering information via The Fortress of Solitude located in the North Pole. My team & I are here due to Darkseid's influence in this particular war. How we were able to get in here is because the branch of government Trinity is a part of The Foundation for Law And Government was granted FBI status in 2001 when Terrorists attacked the World Trade Center in New York. I had a suspicion that the Darkness that always precedes Darkseid's coming had a hand in 9/11. My team was sent here to find out how far The Darkness would spread. What do you know about Darkseid?" Clark asked her. Maya removed a holographic emitter from her pocket. It began to show the History of Krypton at an accelerated rate then slowed down when a meteor shower began to move closer to Krypton. Maya froze the image.
"this was charted 400 years ago according to Kryptonian time records. An emissary, DeSaad was dispatched to Krypton to speak to the ruling Council to discover how to create peace between the planet Apokolips and Krypton. Little did we know we were being set up. The Ruling Council ruled not to send any Ambassadors considering we were trying to consolidate our military and keep peace between the 28 known galaxies. DeSaad's forces came in the night and nearly destroyed ¼ of Krypton's people were it not for the rise of the House of Zod. We were then grafted into a military branch. Each of our descendants were cloned and bred for the Military, although the general populace is unaware of this at the time. DeSaad's master, a godlike being who called himself Darkseid declared vengeance on Krypton and her planetary government. The Darkness hit us and it wasn't until Ra-El, the very first member of the little known House of El devised a way to repel the Darkness," Maya said. Clark then heard his Bluetooth device beep.
"This is Boy Scout, go ahead Watchtower," Clark said. He then grabbed the holographic emitter which brought up a holographic image of Chloe Sullivan from the future.
"Boy Scout our spy cams report that you made to 1941, but you never reported in. What's going on?" Chloe asked. Clark smiled.
"We were going to give you a report after we had contacted The President but we were intercepted by Security. It also seems we ran into one of General Zod's ancestors here in this time. I need another identity other than Clark Kent. I'm too afraid if they put my blood sample they might find my indirect relation to Hyram Kent. Can you give me a new identity, Watchtower?" Clark said.
Chloe began to work frantically as she began to set up aliases in the past for Clark. She then stared at Hannah Melvin who was being prepared for her own mission.
"Ok Boy scout. Your new identity is Curtis Kent. The other members of your team will remain as they are but Superman, since you are the only one that Darkseid will recognize we'll have Queen Industries of the past help you out," Chloe said over her receiver.
"What about Hannah? You said she had a mission. Has she started hers?" Clark asked. Maya then integrated the holographic emitter and a holographic image of Chloe Sullivan showed up.
"We're sending her back to The Mirror Universe to discover if Darkseid on her side of the Mirror is the same one here. She's going to be sent to the Mirror Krypton. While she's on the other side I will have her tap into the historical database of the Mirror Krypton using one of your Crystals from The Fortress. I also have a personal mission for her as well. To bring back Moira Sullivan, the Mirror Universe duplicate of my mother," Chloe said. They saw Chloe nod over to her team and Hannah Melvin.
"Do it," She said. Clark then saw the holographic image white out and the holographic connection to the future white out.
"What happened," Maya asked. Trinity smiled. "Whenever someone goes through the displacement wave, it disrupts the connection between anyone if they are talking. The Fortress would leave the connection but for a few more minutes. We've got to get going," She said as she used her super strength and broke the ropes that Maya had used to tie the team up.
"Mon-El and I have two more weeks here on Earth. Is there anyway I can help you," Maya asked. Davis smiled.
"You can help us get set up in this time period while we are here," Davis said. She nodded. Maya smiled at her descendant. Maya and Clark, rival families shook hands as a new alliance was formed…
