Chapter 04 : Soldier
— Krypton : North Region 5284BXH
POV : Jor-El
It's been another thirty years, I still don't age much, but I think I was already starting to feel the effects, probably due to parenthood, you have to know, raising a hundred teenagers proved to be more complicated than expected.
I think I owe most of the new gray hairs to the boys, they were more reckless than the girls. Another thing that gave me a lot of headaches was dating, The One Above All knows how complicated it was to explain relationships between boys and girls.
At least they were all adults now, in their thirties, though they look like they're in their twenties, and some still act like teenagers, but nothing that can't be changed by maturity.They helped me to turn our little camp into a real city, I intended to create two more generations of Kryptonians in the genesis chamber, the first one was one hundred children, the second one will have five hundred children and the third and last one will be one thousand children.
After that I'm going to destroy the genesis camera, it's a technology too dangerous to exist and if others take over then I can only say that a new war would brew to get them expendable soldiers.
In any case I'll wait a little bit, it took a hundred years for the first generation to be born, nothing wrong with waiting another hundred years, for now let's focus on the city. We built a super technological metropolis, luckily many of my children were scientists at heart, and we had a lot of material to study.
The technology was inspired by the movie Man of Steel, only instead of the dull gray, we had silver, blue and red as colors, it was properly hygienic and totally ecological, it was a good city, but that was not what mattered, in the last thirty years the Xandar and Kree war got along a lot and many planets have already been burned in the war.
My kids and I had not been involved yet , but the day had come, I already sent a message to the current Nova Prime, I would go to their side, they already had the Skrull and Kronan on their side, while the Kree had Spartax and the others, Centarium beside them, Centarium were slaves and Spartax just wanted a bigger business network.
Nova Prime liked new allies, even more one he believes is capable of destroying Destroyers as if they were nothing, fifty of my children would follow me, the rest will guard our planet and stop any invaders, Cortana would serve as advisor.
All wore costumes similar to mine, white tights with super resistant fabric and small armor in the joints such as shoulder, knee etc..., it was extremely compacted and served in multiple biomes, without a doubt it also glued well to the body and left the muscles very defined.
Kal and Lara accompanied me, acting as my right arms, they were undoubtedly the most capable of their kin, they deserved the position and no one doubted it.
We used our upgraded Destroyer ship, in a more Kryptonian style, and headed into Xandarian space, Nova Corp territory, first of all we signaled that we were coming.
— Planet XGF23 : Northeast Region 5284BXH
A headquarters planet, it was basically used for that, it was just a big barracks and a military city, we flew towards the planet's headquarters, and at the entrance was Nova Prime, a man with red skin and blue hair, green eyes and quite built, with the iconic helmet not in sight.
"Nova Prime, nice to meet you, I'm Jor-El, leader of Krypton, and these are my second-in-command Kal-Zod and Lara-Zorel, I hope we arrived at a good time." I was diplomatic."It's my pleasure Lord Jor-El, your help has come at a good time, we are in a tight spot, any help is requested." He looked really tired, beings with longer lifespans means heavier weight of war, but even thirty years of war is too much.
"Don't worry about it, with our help you don't have to worry, I already have a plan, I'd like you to hear it." The Kree have become my enemies, so they deserve no pity.
We enter the meeting hall, there was a huge stone man with an irritated expression, and a reptilian looking woman with long ears, they must be the military leaders of the Kronan and Skrull, they look tired.
"Friends, this is Jor-El and his second-in-command, you may know of the individual who destroyed some Kree Destroyers a few decades ago." Nova Prime introduced me.
"Ha!, there's something interesting, you must have a hell of an arm if you can do that by hand, tell me are these brats as good as you?" The Kronan leader seemed like the type who only respects strength apparently.
"I can assure you, all my children are as strong as an entire fleet, but that's not why we're here, I have a plan that could leave the Kree incapacitated for at least two hundred years." I said with a cruel smile.
The Skrull military leader noticing my expression raised an "eyebrow", but there was nothing there to raise.
"Well now I'm curious, what's your grand Kryptonian plan ?" she asked, her voice very velvety, very comfortable to hear.
"Well, just listen." I spent the next few minutes explaining my plan, when I finished the three of them had a cold sweat on their foreheads, apparently none of them expected so much destruction caused during a war, but either way there was no Geneva convention to sue me.
"Well...I think we can go with it, anyone against it?" Nova Prime asked, the other two shook their heads in denial.
"Good, then let's get started." I said, my eyes shining with determination.
The plan was to use our smaller numbers to our advantage, we would attack their farm planets, causing damage to their food supplies, and then we would cite the capital planet, Hala, and issue an ultimatum, of course my children would be vital in my plans.
They knew we were at war, so they knew they would have to take lives, it wasn't ideal, but for now the Kree should be taught a lesson, and the galaxy should recognize the Kryptonians.
