In the Alpha Centauri system, there was a gas giant, and that gas giant had a moon named Pandora. It was so named due to the many complex problems that arose with its colonization. The moon had a stable Earth-like atmosphere with slightly more carbon dioxide, a bit lower when it came to gravity, and featured irregular magnetic fields that protected the moon from the radiation belts of its host planet. The temperature was tropical year-long. The entire moon was covered in either ocean or forest with trees greatly exceeding anything on Earth due to the lower gravity. Most important of all, it had a large natural supply of Unobtanium that were critical for computer processing units.
A fleet of Atlas, Hercules, and Carmanor cargo ships arrived at the moon under Brainiac 5's direction. The Atlas cargo ships were the size of a bus at 20 meters and highly mobile for docking with space stations and bigger ships. The Hercules cargo ships were 90 meters in length with a triangular dagger shape. The Carmanor cargo ships were 370 meters in diameter and were shaped like saucers. Upon arriving on Pandora, Hermes probes were sent out to scope the moon for Unobtamium deposits and to find a suitable location for a base. Once the place for the base was established, Imperial ships landed and began construction of the base with airfields, walls, tower guards, labs, barracks, mess halls, and other facilities. The base was heavily armed with fighters, helicopters, and mech units against the primitive native population.
At the same time, Mon had other ambitions. He hooked himself up to a Na'Vi clone body and decided to sack Na'Vi society for himself. First, he dominated a mountain banshee and went after a great leonopteryx with the intent of kicking its ass and upgrading himself. The great leonopteryx was flying around, minding its own business as an apex predator when Mon attacked from above.
"Ha! Got your bitch ass!" Mon said as he leaped off his banshee and took hold of the leonopteryx's back. After a brief struggle, Mon connected his USB hair tentacle plug into the leonopteryx's USB port and conquered its mind. He then flew the dragon creature to a Na'Vi village greatly freaking them out.
"Toruk Makto?" the priestess wondered.
Mon disconnected from his dragon and walked among the Na'Vi people like a boss. As he did, many of them worshipped him like a god. "As your white savior, I will make Pandora great again. I will protect you from the invaders, lead you to the promised land, and bring peace and prosperity to you all. In return, you are to do everything I say, worship me as a god, and allow me an unlimited number of wives," Mon said to them all. "Starting with this one," he said of the priestess's daughter.
"I'm afraid for my people," Neytiri admitted to him.
"You should be," Mon agreed. He then turned to the general population. "I am ready for all of you to serve me."
In orbit, a Carmanor cargo ship released a Hercules cargo ship toward the moon. In the cockpit, Kara watched as she saw Brainiac 5's progress. Below her was a giant ass mine that created a large scar on the surface of the moon. Inside the pit were construction vehicles busy at work. The Hercules cargo ship then landed inside the base. Within the base were smelting factories that were immediately polluting the air. Humans were to put on masks as the carbon dioxide was too much for them. Without a mask, they would be unconscious within four minutes and dead soon thereafter.
Kara exited the cargo ship in her black uniform without wearing a mask. As she was exposed to the air, she immediately felt weakened and fell to a knee. She noticed she had a nose bleed and her power level was down to nothing. Focusing herself, she made her way inside the HQ building and was immediately refreshed by the artificial atmosphere inside.
"This is most definitely not Kansas," Kara said dryly to Brainiac 5 as she regained her senses.
"We have an indigenous population of humanoids called the Na'Vi. They're a walking EO complaint with slender tall bodies, blue skin, cat-like faces, yellow eyes, braided black hair, and native sensibilities," Brainiac 5 informed her.
"It's almost like the universe is trying to tell me I shouldn't colonize this place, that nature should be left alone," Kara mused.
"They're fond of arrows, toxic arrows that can stop a human's heart in one minute. They have bones with naturally occurring carbon fibers allowing them to run and jump at a super-human level while also reducing their weight. They have domesticated the local mountain banshee and are skilled pilots," Brainiac 5 said to her.
"Aliens slightly stronger than humans don't impress me," Kara rolled her eyes.
"With this atmosphere, you will need a mask or you will be as helpless as humans out there," Brainiac 5 warned.
"I'll adapt," Kara said confidently.
"I have an alternative," Brainiac 5 said as he led Kara to his lab. "Behold, what science has done," he said as he showed her several tanks filled with Na'Vi bodies.
"What the fuck?" Kara wondered.
"They're clones with no frontal cortexes. You can connect your mind to their brain and move it around however you wish like a slave. Their senses will be your senses. Do not worry. They were never conceived nor born conscious," Brainiac 5 said.
"What if I die in one of these bodies? Does that mean I'll die?" Kara asked apprehensively
"This isn't the Matrix. You'll simply disconnect and wake up in the lab. It allows human scouts to survey the area without the threat of being killed. It can also help build comradery between us and the Na'Vi," Brainiac 5 said.
"Such as?" Kara wondered.
"Schools where we educate their children in God's language," Brainiac 5 said.
"Ah, English," Kara caught on.
"Indeed. We have begun missionary work to convert them to the one true faith," Brainiac 5 continued.
"So...wait...they wouldn't have been damned for not knowing about Jesus, right? I mean, for their entire species' existence, they've never encountered humans," Kara said confused.
"Yes, their salvation would be judged in accordance with the Natural Law, the law of God etched onto their hearts and conscience," Brainiac 5 said.
"So, now that we're preaching them the Word of God if they don't accept, they're now condemned?" Kara questioned.
"Yes," Brainiac 5 said simply.
"Then...maybe we should have just kept our mouths shut," Kara said wide-eyed.
"Perhaps," Brainiac 5 said unconcernedly.
"You don't really give a shit about their salvation, do you?" Kara determined.
"Uniting the galaxy under one faith, under one creed, under one church, under one government with me at the head serves all of our interests," Brainiac 5 reminded her.
"Speaking of all, where the fuck is Mon?" Kara asked anxiously.
"He's become a local Na'Vi tribe's Toruk Makto," Brainiac 5 replied.
"A what?" Kara wondered.
"Their white savior," Brainiac 5 clarified.
"I see. He's probably bossing them around, stealing their food, and getting as much alien tail as he possibly can," Kara said resentfully.
"Most likely," Brainiac 5 agreed.
"That son-of-a-bitch," Kara said pissed off.
"You didn't part ways on good terms," Brainiac 5 reminded her.
Kara said nothing to that. She looked over at the tanks and found a female Na'Vi with her face on it. "Why does it look like me?" she asked. "Did you add my DNA to this thing?"
"That's not how genetics works. I conducted plastic surgery on the clone's face so you would better adjust to your mind being in a different body," Brainiac 5 explained.
"That's creepy as fuck, thank you," Kara said appreciatively.
"You'll need to learn the native language if you want to gain their trust," Brainiac 5 advised. "A dictionary is installed on your tablet."
"Too easy. Give me five days," Kara said confidently. "So...why the fuck are we even here?"
Brainiac 5 led Kara to the command center. On a table was a hologram map of the area. The command center was filled with drones and humans working at various stations. "Unobtanium," Brainiac 5 said, showing her a sample. "Is why we are here."
"Unobtanium? Did you come up with that name out of your ass?" Kara mocked.
"It's critical for computer processing units. If I am to continue my research, I need more materials to advance my processing power. Either I mine it here...or I mine it on Earth," he threatened.
"Gotcha," Kara understood.
In the lab, Brainiac 5 instructed Kara on the process to link to her Na'Vi avatar. "This is great," Kara smiled as she played with the foam inside the capsule.
"Did you read the manual?" Brainiac 5 asked.
"I didn't come here to read, I came here to lead," Kara told him off. "Do I have to be naked when I get in the bed?"
"No," Brainiac 5 replied.
Kara frowned and then placed herself in the capsule bed. "So, I can't be consciously awake in two bodies at the same time? I'm super-vulnerable when I am inside this Na'Vi clone body?"
"Yes," Brainiac 5 confirmed.
"That seems like a terrible design flaw," Kara said anxiously.
"You'll be perfectly safe in this lab," Brainiac 5 assured her. "Relax, put your head down, let your mind go blank. Shouldn't be too hard for you."
"Mother-fucker," Kara said peeved as the capsule closed on her, locked, and then entered a portal that resembled a CAT scan machine. Inside the capsule, Kara went into a dream-like state and then emerged inside her Na'Vi body.
"Can you hear me?" Brainiac 5 asked as she awoke.
"Yeah," Kara said amazed. "I'm a blue cat person."
"Sit up, touch your fingers one by one, and move your toes," Brainiac 5 instructed.
Kara moved all of her limbs and then caressed her body including her A-cup breasts. "Why are they so damn small?" she asked disappointed.
"They're the same proportions to your Kryptonian body," Brainiac 5 told her.
"That's a fucking lie," Kara said pissed off.
"Sexual dimorphism with the Na'Vi is different than Kryptonians, Jin-Saiyan, Humans, Titans, Naltorians...," Brainiac 5 listed off.
"I get it. All aliens looking the same is bullshit," Kara interrupted.
"Still, it is curious that the Na'Vi still looks fairly humanoid," Brainiac 5 said.
"Almost as if they were genetically designed by a furry enthusiast," Kara frowned.
"It's possible the only way to achieve sentience is via humanoid evolution," Brainiac 5 theorized.
"Or crabs...like the crab nation that rivals the Atlanteans," Kara pointed out.
"We don't need to talk about them," Brainiac 5 said shutting her down.
Kara began walking around. "Whoa, I feel so light," she said as she nearly lost her balance. "Something occurred to me. Shouldn't I wear clothes?"
"It's not necessary," Brainiac 5 assured her.
"I'm feeling kind of exposed here," Kara said embarrassed.
Brainiac 5 hesitated but then gave her shorts, a sports bra, and shoes appropriate to her new body's dimension. Kara struggled to get her new clothes but eventually got the hang of moving around. Her tail went through a hole in her shorts. Kara then let herself out and began practicing the use of her body by running around, navigating the obstacle course, and playing basketball.
"Wow, I feel so...mortal," Kara smiled. She took a piece of fruit and ate it. "This is so juicy."
The next day, Kara flew in a scorpion-class attack helicopter outside the walls while in her Na'Vi body on a survey mission. On the way, she saw little blue dragon creatures, waterfalls, and giant trees. The helicopter came to rest in the dense rainforest. Blue-colored deer ran off as the helicopter landed. Kara exited the helicopter with a rifle and started to hike around. The forest was thick with weird-ass vegetation and bugs. Blue-colored lemurs swung around the trees with four arms.
"They're lemurs. Not aggressive," Brainiac 5 told her as she looked anxious.
"How will they know we're here?" Kara asked referring to the Na'Vi.
"I'm sure they're watching us right now," Brainiac 5 said as he scanned the forest with his eyes. They came upon a ruined structure in the middle of the forest. "This was our school. The children had a higher IQ than humans, eager to learn, they learned English within months," Brainiac 5 said as they toured the structure.
Purple-colored bat-like creatures hung from the rafters and screeched at Kara. She then noticed the bullet holes in the chalkboard. "What happened here?" she asked.
"There was a cultural exchange," Brainiac 5 said vaguely.
The two continued on their journey through the forest. Brainiac 5 punctured a root with a needle and then connected the needle to a wire that connected to his tablet. "What am I seeing?" Kara asked confused.
"It's like a nervous system," Brainiac 5 explained.
The two then came across a giant mushroom field. Kara eyed the red-colored mushrooms wide-eyed. "Holy shit, Barney. Are they edible?" Kara asked hopefully.
"Try to take a sample," Brainiac 5 encouraged.
Kara lightly touched a mushroom only to have it shrink into the ground instantly. "What the fuck?" Kara chuckled. She then playfully did the same with all the mushrooms until they all disappeared from view. This revealed a hammerhead peacock cow. The beast thrashed about pissed off by Kara's presence.
"It's a territorial threat display. Do not run, hold your ground," Brainiac 5 advised.
"I stopped running once I came to Earth," Kara smirked.
The hammerhead peacock cow then charged her. Kara fired her rifle into its head, dropping it. "That's what you get, bitch. No organic armor can stop a bullet," Kara mocked.
"Behind you," Brainiac 5 advised.
Kara eyed a black panther creature behind her. It roared at her and showed its teeth. Kara blasted the creature in the face dropping it. "The key is shooting the thing right in the face on single-action. You go automatic and your aim goes to shit and you quickly run out of bullets."
"Shall we continue?" Brainiac 5 suggested.
The two toured around the forest until nightfall. Their pilot had already taken off. "I'm having trouble seeing with this body," Kara complained.
"I see everything," Brainiac 5 said with his red vision.
"Okay, asshole, help me out," Kara demanded.
"Take this staff, rub it in this oil, and then light it on fire," Brainiac 5 instructed her.
"How do I do that without heat vision?" Kara asked exasperatedly.
"A match," Brainiac 5 said condescendingly and then lit the torch for her. "We're surrounded by wild dogs, FYI."
"Hold the torch while I do some euthanizing," Kara said as she handed the torch to him.
As the wild dogs came closer, Kara shot them each with one bullet. The wild dogs tried to get above her using the trees but she shot them down, too. "Quite the body count," Brainiac 5 noticed.
"They just keep coming," Kara said surprised as she shot more of them dead. "You know, this has been an awesome safari, Barney. Thank you for this."
"In some civilized cultures, hunters take back their game and utilize the meat for food," Brainiac 5 scolded.
"Yeah, well, as I see it, all of these dead corpses are going to be eaten up by bugs and bacteria so what does it matter? Nothing ever really gets wasted. It's all part of the circle of life and I'm just happy to be part of that circle," Kara said.
"I'm sure the many humans you've killed in your illustrious career also enjoyed being part of your circle of life," Brainiac 5 chided.
"Fuck you, Barney," Kara shot back.
Suddenly an arrow went through Brainiac 5's neck strategically deactivating him. He fell to the ground lifeless. "Oh, shit," Kara realized. Nyteri then came into view with her bow and arrow. She shot one of the dogs and beat the others back. She brutally stabbed a few of them as well. Kara simply watched as she did her thing. Finally, the wild dogs retreated.
"Thanks," Kara said appreciatively.
Nyteri hissed at her and threw her torch into a stream where it was put out. "Well...shit," Kara muttered.
As it happened, as night fell, all the plants began to glow in the dark making it easy to see. Nyteri then began to pray over a dead wild dog she had killed with an arrow. "That dog looks like it came from the pit of hell. No exorcism is going to work with that thing," Kara told her.
"Well, pretty impressive nonetheless but you kind of fucked me by deactivating my drone," Kara chided.
"I've assessed the situation and I'm leaving," Nyteri said and walked off.
Kara followed after her. "I don't think you understand. I'm showing you my thanks and that should mean a lot. I'm actually a fucking big deal where I'm from."
"Don't thank for this. This is sad, very sad only," Nyteri told her off.
"Hey, whatever I did...I'm not apologizing," Kara refused.
"This is your fault. They did not need to die," Nyteri scolded.
"Yeah, maybe, but who gives a shit?" Kara asked dismissively.
"Your fault!" she said and then jabbed at her with her bow. "Your fault. You're like a baby, making noise, not know what to do."
"You remind me of my adopted mom," Kara said reflectively. "Look, if you really cared about your happy tree friends, you wouldn't have saved me. Obviously, you see greatness in me."
"You have a strong heart. No fear," Nyteri sensed.
"Probably because this isn't my real body. I don't really give a shit if I die out here. I'll just wake up in a lab and get me a new body," Kara explained.
"You think you're so smart. You're stupid, ignorant like a child," Nyteri said unimpressed.
"I'm a fast learner," Kara assured her.
Nyteri ignored her and went on her merry way back to the village. "You're like a baby," she said dismissively.
"Look, I need your help. There's this..shiny...rock in the ground...that I need to dig up," Kara told her.
"You should not be here. Go back," Nyteri refused.
All of a sudden dozens of wood sprites came down and floated around Kara, probably attracted to the remote electrical connection between her body and her real body a distance away. Nyteri became in awe of her. The wood sprites then took off. "So...am I a goddess now?" Kara wondered.
"Come," Nyteri allowed, changing her tune.
Kara followed Nyteri into an ambush. She was quickly surrounded by Na'Vi on alien horses. Kara pointed her rifle at them, ready to kick ass and take names. They all pointed toxic arrows at her. "Calm people, calm," Nyteri told them off.
Nyteri then turned to Kara. "Drop your weapon and follow us or you will die here." Kara hesitated but dropped her rifle. She then followed the Na'Vi to their home tree.
After a long hike, Kara and Nyteri arrived at the Na'Vi village under home tree. "Would have been nice to get a ride," Kara said peeved. There, she came face-to-face with the Toruk Matu, a Na'Vi that resembled Mon.
"Mon, you son-of-a-bitch, what have you done?" Kara said to him.
The Na'Vi hissed and held her back. Mon looked Kara over, circling her, touching her black braided hair, and then her tail. He gave her a good smack on the butt for good measure. He then tested her flesh by striking her with a needle and tasting her blood. "I will make her one of my wives," Mon determined. "Teach her shit," he ordered Nyteri.
Nyteri gagged at that. "It has been decided. My wife, Nyteri, will teach you our ways. Then, we'll see if your insanity can be established," Mon said to Kara.
"At the earliest opportunity...I'm going to kill your ass," Kara promised.
"Obviously, I won't let you die, but you'd be surprised what you can live through," Mon threatened. "On this world, I am above you in strength, power, and skill. On this world, you are subordinate to me."
A disgruntled Kara found herself a good leaf suspended in the trees and went to sleep. Once she did, she found herself waking up in the lab at the base.
In the lab, Kara woke up groggily. "Is the avatar safe?" Brainiac 5 asked her.
"Yeah. I'm at their home tree and Mon is their leader," Kara rolled her eyes. "I've been made one of Mon's wives."
"That's taking initiative. I like it," Brainiac 5 said pleased.
"Fuck you, Barney," Kara scowled.
"What do the Na'Vi want? We've given them medicine, education, and roads," Brainiac 5 said to her as they walked over to the command center.
"What does it matter? Who cares?" Kara asked him.
"We care because their home base is under a large deposit of Unobtamium," Brainiac 5 said, showing her a hologram map of it.
"That is a lot of cheddar," Kara said amazed.
"Mon won't cooperate and I can't connect through the avatars. It requires a biological being. I need you to get them to move," Brainiac 5 said to her.
"Understood," Kara nodded.
The next morning, Kara rejoined the Na'Vi tribe. With Nyteri as a guide, she went horseback riding. These horses had long tongues that were able to suck up some sweet flower nectar. "Do the females of your tribe ever...you know...use your tongue to get some nectar?" Kara asked Nyteri.
"No, our tongues are not long enough," she replied.
"How about other types of flowers?" Kara asked. "Maybe...blue flowers."
Nyteri simply gave her an odd look. "Get on him and ride him."
Kara complied, getting on the alien horse. She then connected the tentacles from her braided hair to one of the tentacles on the horse connecting them together. She now had control over the horse. "You're my bitch now," Kara smiled.
"The bond, feel him, feel his heartbeat, his breath, his strong legs, his penis," Nyteri told her.
"This is really weird," Kara said uncomfortably. "Forward," she ordered the horse. The horse ran off and threw her off in the process. Kara landed in the mud as Nyteri laughed. Mon expertly rode next to her and splashed water on Kara from a nearby stream.
"The woman will learn nothing. Look at her. She belongs with the other women cooking, cleaning, and looking after children," Mon said condescendingly. He then rode off like a total asshole.
"He does not see males and females as equals," Nyteri noted.
"Yeah, no shit," Kara sighed.
Over the course of several days, Kara learned the language, shot arrows, and swung on the trees. Kara came to find that the demonic hellhounds actually loved their children, too. One time she fell several stories from the home tree and smacked into random branches and vegetation all the way down. "I'm alright," Kara said to Nyteri as she landed.
At night, Kara and Nyteri swam together and messed with flying lizard creatures that glowed in the dark. "How do any of these animals hide from predators when they all glow in the dark whenever they move or come into contact with vegetation? I mean, what's the survival strategy here?"
"All creatures glow in the dark," Nyteri said simply. "So, all is balanced."
Finally, Kara went up a mountain on a long hike. Due to magnetic irregularities, entire rock formations floated above the surface. "Climb to the top," Nyteri told her referring to a high rock formation suspended above the air linked by several boulders.
"Yeah, sure," Kara shrugged.
"You have no fear," Nyteri realized.
"If I die, I'll be back tomorrow," Kara assured her.
Nyteri gave her an odd look but followed her up the suspended boulders until they reach the top rock formation. They then did some rope climbing on some vines to get even higher. For the first time in many years, Kara felt some fear of heights. They went inside the top rock formation and then reached the top. There, they found mountain banshees flying around.
Mon gave Kara a mocking look. "Kara will go first."
Kara made her way over to a crowd of perpetually pissed-off mountain banshees. "Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Kara Zor-El, empress of this sector, queen of Earth, strongest being in the universe, breaker of chains, so who wants the honor of being mine?"
The banshees roared and hissed at her in response. Kara finally picked one out, a male. Mon laughed at Kara's efforts. "The crazy bitch is going to die."
Kara tackled the banshee and began to fight it. She put the banshee in a headlock and struggled to connect with him. "That is a male," Nyteri reminded her.
"Yeah, I know," Kara said as she continued to work on her connection. After nearly dying a few times, Kara connected with the banshee and subdued him. She was then able to feel his mind, his body, his maleness. "Oh, fuck yeah," she said pleased. "You're all mine."
Kara then flew off on her banshee. At first, the banshee was uncooperative and screeched at her. "Shut up and stop flying queer," Kara told him. The banshee complied and the two started flying around the area. Kara had the time of her life as she flew with her banshee. For the first time, she felt like her flying was earned. Nyteri joined her and the two flew around the suspended rock formations together.
In time, Kara learned to fly in formations, go into deep dives, and navigate around a rock formation that resembled a rib cage.
Eventually, Kara reported to Brainiac 5 on her findings. "I'm beginning to doubt your resolve," Brainiac 5 said concernedly.
"Okay, the home tree is kind of hollow with several levels going up to the top. Strikes here and here will knock it down," Kara said, pointing to the hologram of the tree.
"I need you to negotiate terms for their surrender," Brainiac 5 said seriously.
"There's this ceremony where I become one of them. Then, I can negotiate with them," Kara assured him.
"It's often easier to negotiate with a foe than with a friend," Brainiac 5 reminded her.
At Home-Tree, Mon conducted the ceremony over Kara. "You are now one of the people and one of my wives," he said officially. "Tonight, you will join me at the Tree of Voices."
That night, Mon, Nyteri, and Kara journeyed to the Tree of Voices. "Connect with the tree and you'll see and hear the memories of our ancestors," Nyteri taught.
Kara did so and then felt overwhelmed by the Na'Vi history. "I have chosen," Mon said to them both. "I have chosen both of you to mate with here on these sacred grounds."
"You can't be serious," Kara scoffed.
"It would be an honor," Nyteri bowed her head to him.
"I know you're going to like this," Kara said to Mon. "I only hope I like it more."
The three then had a very holy tasteful threesome at the Tree of Voices.
The next morning, Brainiac 5 sent massive bulldozers to take down the trees near Home Tree and destroyed the Tree of Voices in the process. Nyteri was a bit upset by this. A meeting was held by the Na'Vi on what to do about this deforestation.
"I will lead the war party," Mon declared.
"No, it's suicide. They have powerful weapons, men that do not die from your arrows. If you fight them, you will be killed," Kara warned them.
"You are a traitor," Mon accused.
"How can I be a traitor? I own this moon," Kara said obviously.
The Na'Vi simply stared at her. "I mean...we all own this moon," Kara backtracked.
"She has reported information about us to the enemy," Mon accused.
"Just let me talk to Barney and we'll get this all figured out," Kara said.
"No more talking," Mon shut her down.
"I am one of you now. I have the right to speak," Kara insisted. "I have something to say to all of you," she began and then collapsed as Brainiac 5 disconnected her.
In the command center, Kara confronted Brainiac 5 on the situation. "What the shit? I nearly got them to surrender," Kara lied.
"I think otherwise," Brainiac 5 doubted. "I think you've gone native."
"Just because I had a threesome in my Na'Vi body doesn't mean I went native," Kara said defensively.
"Your negotiations have not been fruitful. The Kara I know would have moved these people within days," Brainiac 5 critiqued.
"What are you going to do? Burn the tree down with men, women, and children still inside it? So long as they remain there, they hold that tree hostage," Kara told him.
"You have forcibly relocated countless humans from one location to another. You have conquered Earth and many thousands died as a result. This is no different. If you cannot make the necessary hard decisions, you must delegate those decisions to someone who can," Brainiac 5 said to her.
"And what if my decision is to leave them alone?" Kara asked him.
Brainiac 5 showed a video of the Na'Vi war party slaughtering human workers and totaling the bulldozer equipment. "I seriously doubt humanity will be pleased with these reports."
"You bastard, you sent men out there knowing what could happen," Kara accused.
"I'll move them out with gas. It will be humane, more or less," Brainiac 5 promised her.
"Let me talk to them one last time," Kara requested.
At Home-Tree, Kara talked with the Na'Vi. "The drones are coming to destroy Home Tree. They will be here soon. You have to leave or you will die," Kara told them.
"Are you certain of this?" Nyteri doubted.
"I didn't know any of this was going to happen," Kara lied. "I was tricked, lied to, deceived by sinister forces."
"That sounds like bullshit. Bind her," Mon ordered. "To war!"
"Mon, you piece of shit!" Kara spat as the Na'Vi bounded her hands and hung her on a tree.
The main gunship and a dozen helicopters arrived on the scene and fired gas canisters into Home Tree to force the inhabitants to leave. The Na'Vi fired arrows at the helicopters in vain. Brainiac 5 analyzed the area with thermal scans to see where the population was present. He continued to send more gas canisters into the tree. When that didn't work, Brainiac 5 fired machine guns at the general area. The gunfire forced the Na'Vi to flee with no casualties. He then fired missiles at the general area to scare more of them away. With each strike, Brainiac 5 scanned the area for casualties and found 0.0.
Brainiac 5 waited patiently for the population to move and then fired on the tree. The smoke from the burning tree forced any still remaining to move. Once the population was mostly away from the tree, Brainiac 5 fired every single missile from his helicopters. The three received massive explosive shocks in strategic locations where Kara had outlined. The tree then began to buckle and fell over on its side with a loud thud. Brainiac 5 then returned back to base with his air fleet.
At the lab, Brainiac 5 disconnected Kara's connection to her Na'Vi body. She exited her capsule pissed off. "That was uncalled for. I'm in charge...I'm in...," she stuttered and then noticed her nose was bleeding. She fell to the floor feeling faint with her head spinning.
"I evacuated the humans out of HQ and changed the atmospherics," Brainiac 5 informed her. "It would appear Mon is preparing a counter-strike against this base."
"Hate you...hate you both," Kara said weakly and then passed out.
A distance away from Home Tree, Mon rallied the Na'Vi at the Tree of Souls. "The sky people have sent us a message. That they can take whatever they want and no one can stop them. And they're not wrong," Mon began. "But we will send them a message. Ride out to the other clans, have them come here, and tell them Toruk Makto tells them to get their asses over here. You fly now, with me, your white savior, and we'll tell the sky people that they can't take whatever they want. This is my land."
With his leonopteryx, Mon went to each of the clans and rallied their support. "This is for your children's children," Mon said to each of the clans in the most cliched way possible. Within a short time, Mon had united all the clans against the "sky-people" numbering twenty thousand.
As this was happening, Brainiac 5 was monitoring the situation with thermal scans. The Na'Vi began moving against his perimeter. The Na'Vi were in the air on their banshees and on the ground on horseback. Brainiac 5 watched as the Na'Vi ground forces surrounded the base but kept enough distance to be out of range of his guns. The Na'Vi aerial units condensed towards one side of the wall.
"Deploy the Hercules," Brainiac 5 ordered his men.
The Hercules cargo ship took to the air and went way above the maximum range of the banshees by several times. It flew over rib cage rock formation and dumped its payload in carpet bombing fashion. The explosives hit around the Tree of Souls causing a massive explosion that roared around the general area. The Tree of Souls was incinerated instantly in the blast. The destruction of the tree sent the organizational senses of the banshee into chaos as they were all linked to the system.
The Na'Vi banshees approached the base with the intent of dropping Na'Vi warriors inside the base. They were met by hovering helicopters waiting for them. Once the Na'Vi banshees were within range of the helicopters at 50km, they began to fire non-stop. The missiles all connected with the Na'Vi banshee pilots destroying them in midair. Missiles from ground SAMs fired off and blasted apart more Na'Vi banshees. After taking down several dozen Na'Vi banshees this way, the helicopters and tower guards switched to guns once they came within range.
Still, the Na'Vi banshees overwhelmed the perimeter. A tower guard was hit by a kamikaze banshee making it useless. The soldiers on the walls had to duck for cover as the Na'Vi banshees clawed at them with their talons. The banshees then went after the helicopters. Mon's leonopteryx grabbed a helicopter with its talons and sent it into a spin where it crashed on the ground. Several Na'Vi banshee warriors fired arrows at the helicopter windows only for them to bounce off the bullet-proof glass.
"Weapons free, all aircraft, weapons free," Brainiac 5 ordered from the command center. The base became a flurry of gunfire with Na'Vi banshees dropping like flies. "Break formation, engage all hostiles," Brainiac 5 ordered as the situation became chaotic.
Mon's leonopteryx grabbed a helicopter and sent it into another helicopter causing them both to explode in midair. With a stolen rifle, Mon blasted out the windows of another helicopter. "Scorpions, pursue and destroy the leonopteryx," Brainiac 5 ordered.
The helicopters went after Mon but had difficulty getting a lock on him as he skillfully evaded them. Supergirl suddenly attacked the main gunship with low-intensity heat vision to its roof. The gunship fired back with multiple missiles which Kara evaded. She fired back with low-intensity heat vision which blasted holes into the gunship's cockpit window.
"You're not the only one with a gun, bitch," Kara smirked and then realized she was nose-bleeding again. "Oh, shit."
The gunship blasted Kara with a direct missile hit and multiple gunshots. As Kara went down, the gunship blasted her with more missiles. Kara hit the ground with a thud. Mech-units on the ground fired non-stop at the Na'Vi banshees as they swarmed the base. Ammo bearers rushed to the scene to replace ammo boxes inside the mech units so they continue firing. Guards for the ammo bearers fired electrical lances at the incoming Na'Vi banshees and were under constant fire of arrows. Bodies of Na'Vi banshees were dropping all over the ground. Some of the injured banshees continued to crawl along the ground and attack the mech units. One particularly brave mech unit human pilot was swarmed by Na'Vi banshees and ripped to shreds by their talons.
With the Na'Vi banshees nearly defeated, the helicopters went after the defenseless Na'Vi ground forces. After multiple hits along the perimeter, the Na'Vi began to retreat back with heavy losses. Incendiary bombs caused the forest to be aflame. Brainiac 5 then noticed a large collection of wildlife headed in his direction, in the tens of thousands. It was as if the entire moon was fighting him.
"Evacuate the base," he ordered his staff in the command center.
Atlas cargo ships began to load personnel even under heavy fire and take off. The remaining helicopters also proceeded to gather the wounded out of the base and then escape to a higher altitude than the banshees could get to them. Various beasts in coordinated attacks slammed into the walls of the base causing them to buckle. Upon the collapse of the wall, these beasts continued to move forward into the base while panthers and wild dogs also proceeded to enter.
"Sir, it appears Eowyn has heard the plight of the Na'Vi," an analyst informed him.
"Either that or hundreds of years of child sacrifice are finally paying off," Brainiac 5 said dryly.
The Hercules cargo ship that had dropped the payload onto the Tree of Souls arrived back at the base to assist in the evacuation. Mon dropped off his leonopteryx and landed on the roof of the ship. He threw a grenade into the exhaust port causing a massive internal explosion. He then leaped off the ship back onto his leonopteryx. The Hercules cargo ship was tilted critically, slammed into a tower guard slicing a wing off, and then hit the ground with an explosion of fire and shrapnel.
Mon then went for the main gunship. As before, he dropped onto the roof. He tried to pull the same trick but the gunship tilted to knock him off balance. The grenades exploded ripping a hole in the hull but not critically damaging the ship. Mon hung onto a missile on the belly of the gunship. With his strength, he tore the missile out and then prepared to throw it into one of the four propellers. A Brainiac 5 drone detached the hatch of the gunship and shot at Mon before he could do it. Mon lost his grip on the gunship but the missile still ended up in the propeller causing an explosion that ripped it to shreds. The gunship went into a critical spin and then crashed to the ground in a fireball.
Brainiac 5 emerged from the explosion with the right side of his face, left arm, and right leg exposed as his synthetic skin melted off. Nyteri then arrived on the scene riding a panther. Brainiac 5 fired off cables around the panther and threw it aside. The panther charged once more and was shot a few times by Brainiac 5's pistol. The panther bit Brainiac 5's right hand disarming him. Brainiac 5 punched the panther to the face with his left. The two wrestled with each other until Brainiac 5 threw the panther up against a wall. The panther charged once more but Brainiac 5 was now ready for it with a knife. He gutted the panther to the belly and then tossed it aside pinning Nyteri to the ground.
Mon then attacked Brainiac 5 with his own knife. The two sparred with their respective blades, evading the other's strikes. Mon finally disarmed Brainiac 5 of his knife and slammed his own knife into his right eye. Brainiac 5 simply removed the knife from his face and fired cables around Mon's body. He dragged Mon over to him and put a knife to his throat.
"It's game over," Brainiac 5 said to him as he slit his throat immediately.
Nyteri suddenly freed herself from the dead panther and fired arrows into Brainiac 5's chest. He merely gave her an annoyed look. Nyteri fired another arrow into his chest. This time, Brainiac 5 collapsed to the ground disabled.
In the command center, Brainiac 5 escorted the rest of his staff on the last Atlas cargo ship to evacuate the base. The base was now littered with dead bodies of various lifeforms and disabled drones.
After the battle, Brainiac 5, Kara, and Mon had a sit-down on one of the Carmnanor cargo ships in orbit. They were all now in their usual bodies. "I'm taking total control and jurisdiction over Pandora from now on," Brainiac 5 informed them.
"I recall you losing the battle," Mon said smartly.
"Please, I could nuke every Na'Vi settlement from orbit," Brainiac 5 said dismissively.
"Surely, there is a compromise that can be reached with the Na'Vi," Kara said reasonably.
"In exchange for saving their souls in reeducation camps, they will surrender their land's resources to me," Brainiac 5 replied.
"I meant a fair compromise," Kara clarified.
"Your immaturity has created a lot of drama and false hope within the Na'Vi. The moon now belongs to me or I will be less cooperative," Brainiac 5 threatened.
"Yeah, right. You won't shut your system down on Earth. Humanity is now dependent upon you, millions would perish," Mon scoffed. "Besides, you need us for protection and offensive firepower."
"It's not all-or-nothing. Refusal to comply with my wishes and I'll be five percent less cooperative than usual," Brainiac 5 clarified.
"Well...shit," Kara said stumped.
"Like I give a shit," Mon scoffed.
Kara eyed Mon with eyes that indicated she wanted to kill him. "She does," Brainiac 5 said obviously.
"Fine, whatever. I'll find some other primitive tribal species to play white savior to," Mon rolled his eyes.
"Now, the two of you, apologize to each other and make up," Brainiac 5 ordered.
"For what?" Mon asked, completely unrepentant.
"You created a harem of Na'Vi women for yourself. That's cheating," Kara accused. "More than that, you made me your second wife. What the fuck?"
"You shot me through the chest...again...without provocation," Mon reminded her.
"There was provocation," Kara glared.
"Consider positive thoughts to one another," Brainiac 5 ordered.
"Well...making love to your tall, blue, lean body was so romantic. In that body, your dick was twice as long and twice as thick. For a moment there, I wanted to make a blue alien baby with you," Kara admitted.
"That was pretty hawt," Mon agreed.
"We should do it again, sometime," Kara said lustfully.
"In a simulator, of course," Brainiac 5 interjected.
"Thinking of your blue cat face gives me the most awkward boner," Mon confessed.
"Alright, we're both sufficiently aroused with each other again. We, good now?" Kara asked impatiently.
"It's sufficient," Brainiac 5 allowed. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have work to do."
Kara and Mon eyed the window as Imperial ships fired nukes down on the moon below that incinerated large areas of forest life including massive Home Trees in the immediate vicinity. Brainiac 5 began the work of constructing multiple bases on the moon this time. As the bases were set up, new Na'Vi clones were being grown with accelerated growth.
"Sir, we don't have anyone experienced to connect with the clone bodies," one analyst said to him.
Brainiac 5 revealed dozens of chips. "These are the recorded memories of all those who were given the training that died. Now, behold what science can do," he said as he uploaded the memories on the chips into the Na'Vi clone bodies.
Author's Notes: Avatar is one of those Custer's Last Stand battles where the more advanced enemy has to be totally outnumbered and completely stupid when fighting the Indigenous population. The human forces did everything possible to give the Na'Vi a fighting chance and then the Na'Vi pulled a Deus Ex Machina with Eywa. Finally, there's the White Savior issue. The Na'Vi are way too perfect morally and in appearance to gain maximum sympathy. The humans are generally assholes. It's emotional manipulation at its finest. Kara/Mon/B5 muddle the situation up a bit here as per usual. AOS Season 4 continues the slow advancement of the Kryptonian/Insane Empire of Earth as it starts dominating its sector.
