Chapter 3: The Daughter Becomes The Father

(Later, in Zor-El & Alura's Home…)

There were machinery hums.

Kryptonian Zor-El's wife and daughter: Alura In-Ze & Kara. Alura hugged Kara was the baby and cried, Alura & Kara walking to Zor-El's Science Room, he pressed buttons on the console and was working on the computer, and Zor-El grab, noticed, and turned to Alura held Kara and walked and paused, Zor-El watched his wife and daughter.

"Have you finished?" Alura asked.

"Nearly." Zor-El said nervously...

Zor-El walk with his wife & daughter.

"It's the only answer, Alura. If she remains here with us she will die as surely as we will." Zor-El said.

"But why Earth, Zor-El? Jor-El & Lara. What about Kal-El? They're primitives thousands of years behind us. The Council gets mad at you." Alura said.

"She will need that advantage to survive. Jor-El was sent to our nephew, Kal-El. Kal-El was sent to the Phantom Zone or Earth. Their atmosphere will sustain her. I have failed the Councils." Zor-El said.

The baby Kara looked up at her father, Zor-El smiled and he, Alura, & Kara walk and watched her spaceship.

"She will defy their gravity." Alura said.

"She will look like one of them." Zor-El said.

"She won't be one of them." Alura said.

"No. Her dense molecular structure will make her strong." Zor-El said.

"She'll be odd. Different." Alura said.

"She'll be fast. Virtually invulnerable." Zor-El said.

"Isolated, alone." Alura said.

Zor-El sighs.

"She will not be alone. She will never be alone. I noticed." Zor-El said.

He noticed her pod-like ship, noticed the ship: Kara, Zor-El noticed a mission: Protect this infant alien, while keeping her true origin a secret…

(Later, in The Councils…)

The Council watched the Kryptonian as an AI.

"The energy input to Zor-El & his brother Jor-El's quarters...is now in excess. Our data indicates the loss is due to a misuse of energy." The Kryptonian soldier AI said.

"Investigate." The Krypton man said.

"And if the investigation proves correct?" The Krypton another man asked.

"He knew the penalty he faced. Even as a member of this council. The law will be upheld. Call your troops, NOW!" The Krypton man said.

"Yes sir." The Kryptonian soldier AI said.

The Kryptonian soldier AI was gone.

(Later, at Zor-El & Alura's Home 10 minutes later…)

The little baby Kara's a red blanket with red trim, Zor-El fixed Kara's spaceship, Alura cries, kisses the cheek and goodbye to Kara, Alura gave Zor-El to Kara, Zor-El kisses the cheek and goodbye to Kara, Zor-El brings Kara to into the spaceship. Zor-El and Alura watched our daughter Kara.

"You will travel far, my little Kara. But we will never leave you...even in the face of our deaths. You miss me, your mother Alura, your uncle: Jor-El, aunt: Lara, and your cousin: Kal-El. The richness of our lives, it will be yours." Zor-El said.

The baby Kara watched her parents.

"All that I have, all that I've learned, everything I feel…all this and more…I bequeath you, my daughter. You will carry me inside you all the days of your life. You will make my strength your own, see my life through your eyes...as your life will be seen through mine. The daughter becomes the father, and the father the daughter. This is all I...All I can send you…Kara Zor-El." Zor-El said.

The baby Kara saying goodbye to her parents and Zor-El & Alura were hugging and sad.

(Meanwhile…)

Kryptonian soldier troops went and took Zor-El and Alura's home…
