Witness to a Civilization's End

Chapter 1

A bright, blinding white light appeared over one Tony Stark and his beautiful newly wed wife, Pepper Potts, his best friend, Colonel James Rhodes aka Rhodey and his superhero 'son', one Peter Parker aka Spider-Man. A new hero and potential future member of the Avengers, Earth's Mightiest Heros. This bright light engulfed them and other members of the Avengers, future and past, and spit them out in a massive, beautiful theater that looked old but wasn't covered in dust.

Captain America aka Steve Rogers along with a blonde Natasha Romanoff were one of the first ones from their Rogue Avengers to get up and look for their weapons, when they noticed that they didn't have them on their person they got into a fighting stance as more odd looking people in different outfits were spit out by the light as a voice spoke to them.

"Please do not fight, Captain Rogers." The disembodied voice spoke out that seemed to belong to a young man.

"Why are we here with him?" The bearded Captain America asked the voice while pointing at Tony, still believing his former friend hates him for not telling the truth behind the cause of his parents death by James Buchanan Barnes aka the Winter Soldier.

"I have brought all of you here to watch a hero's story be told. He will be the hero Earth needs and will be the catalyst for the Sakovia Accords that General Ross Thunderbolt will enforce on all heroes, old and new." The young voice told these heroes he idolized while growing up on his Earth.

"And how do we know we can trust you?" Natasha Romanoff asked the disembodied voice as she was currently planning on finding this person and keeping them from Ross' hands as this individual seemed to have extraordinary abilities. Steve furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing Ross' name, he wanted the older man to know that locking up his friends wasn't okay with him.

"Why are we watching this one person, if I may ask?" Said the youngest person in the theater, that being Spider-Man, who somehow had his suit when he didn’t have it on back at the Stark/Avengers Tower.

"I can give your weapons back and bring people who most of you don't know about. Such as Yelena Belova, Peggy Carter, The Guardians of the Galaxy, the Justice Society, Teth-Adam, aka Black Adam from Kal-El's future." The 22 year old man said as he watched these heroes discuss what to do, he wished he was allowed to go into his creation, the Theater, and show them in person what he can do with the power the Watcher gave him.

Natasha immediately agreed to what the young man said, seeing as how she's never mentioned her sister to anyone except for Clint. "Can you do it? Can you bring those people here alongside Alexei Alanovich Shostakov and Melina Vostokoff?" She asked in a childlike manner that made the young man snap his fingers and the light that was still there spit out the people he listed off and set them down softly as they haven't seen these people in years or at all.

Natasha ran forward and embraced her sister she hadn't seen in a month since she helped Steve break out their friends from the Raft. "сестра! I thought I wouldn't see you for another year after we stopped Dreykov." Natasha said to Yelena and embraced Alexei and Melina.

The 22 year old voice caught the people he just brought into his Theater up to speed on what they would be watching. "The man you all will be witnessing is named Kal-El, Son of El, the Last Son of Krypton, the Man of Steel, Kryptonian, the God, Superman, and his Earth name is Clark Joseph Kent." The 22 year old voice said to the heroes of both worlds that he, the Watcher, and Lord Lui Kang combined into one singular universe.

"Any questions?" He asked them as a majority of them had questions. Most were about the other people they saw.

He answered as best as he could and told them where they would be sitting as Natasha asked him where this mysterious Kal-El is and why did she feel as though that name felt familiar to her, almost like it meant something special to her that came with a sadness she was unfamiliar with.

"He isn't here yet as his story will start from the very beginning, his birth into his unique combined Universe, and you, Miss Romanoff, play a key role in his life. You all do, but you are his world, so to speak." The voice said as the teens that were present knew what the voice meant by she is this Clark Kent's world. He and her within this new timeline are together.

Peter, who happened to be sitting next to her and Yelena for some reason, looked at her and explained what the voice wouldn't. Natasha, on the other hand, was completely confused by this and wanted to know why she didn’t have any memory of her supposed boyfriend in her head.

"Because within this new timeline, your memories will come back as we watch his life and his intertwined fate with yours, Miss Romanoff." He told her as he snapped his fingers again and teleported all of them into their seats with drinks, snacks, popcorn, and other foods for each person as everyone in the massive room had unique tastes.

The light faded away, and the theaters' lights dimmed, letting the heroes and villains that were also brought into the theater that the film would be starting now.

The screen turned on to show a logo of a company from an alternate timeline that's called DC Comics and another after called Marvel Studios. Both are big names from each universe that has them, but from this alternate timeline both companies merged under one parent company that allowed them to make their films.

After the audience questioned why these two film companies watched their everyday lives, what they did on their off time and what they did as heroes and villains. They heard what sounded like a heartbeat that was followed by a woman screaming as she was in the process of giving birth to her son, a firstborn Kryptonian male in centuries that was made by procreation.

The father of the baby that was being born looked at his service drones that showed the child's heart and zoomed out to show that said child was perfectly healthy and fine. Some of the other alien heros, like Thor, looked at the man and could sense a feeling of extreme worry for his newborn child.

"Breathe, Lara, breathe." Jor-El, head scientist of the Science Guild that is based in the Kryptonian city of Kandor, told his wife who was pushing out their son and screamed as she continued to push out their son, with a mighty scream and the final push she gave birth to the first purebred male Kryptonian in centuries on their world.

The music that played with the film gave the impression of hope once the baby boy was shown, Jor-El looked at his son with joy only a father would understand as he kissed his son's head that still had the embryonic fluid on his body.

To the audience that was gross to all but a few, those few being Teth-Adam, Odin, Drax the Destroyer, and Ego the Living Planet's human avatar, as the voice had brought a lot of people from different times into this theater, who truly understood what Jor-El was feeling in this moment.

-Law Council's Tower-

The scene changed to a shot of a tall structure in the middle of the Kryptonian city of Kandor, there were ships of interesting design flying around the city like how on Earth there's cars, trucks, busses and many other vehicles driving around.

"Do you not understand!? Krypton's core is collapsing, we may only have a matter of weeks. I warned you, harvesting the core was suicide. It has accelerated the process of implosion." Jor said to Lor-Em, leader of the Kryptonian Law Council. "Our energy reserves were exhausted, El, what would you have us do?" The fancy dressed politician asked the head of the Science Guild.

"Look to the stars! Like our ancestors did! There are habitable worlds within reach. Give me control of the Codex, I will ensure our race's survival." Jor told the Law Council. "Are you seriously suggesting that we evacuate the entire planet?" Ro-Zar asked Jor.

"No. Everybody here is already dead. There is still hope. I have held that hope in my hands…." Jor told them as a loud explosion rocked the room and the doors blew open to reveal Jor-El's oldest friend, General Dru-Zod of Kandor and Leader of the Sword of Rao.

"This council has been disbanded." Zod told the lawmakers as his men went towards them to take them away. "On whose authority?" Ro-Zar asked the General.

"Mine." He said as he shot her with his sidearm and motioned for Faora-Hu-Ul and some others to gather up the remaining Law Council members and take them down to the lower levels of the Council's Tower.

Jor-El looked at Faora and could sense that she didn't feel that what Dur-Zod was doing was right when their planet was on the brink of destruction from it's own core.

"What are you doing, Zod? This is madness!" Jor-El told Zod as he noticed how his oldest friend's eyes were filled with determination and an unwavering will within them.

"What I should have done years ago. These lawmakers, with their endless debates, have led Krypton to ruin." Dru-Zod told Jor-El who spoke after he said that. "And if your forces prevail? You'll be the leader of nothing." Jor-El said as Zod looked hurt by these words spoken by the scientist.

"Don't do this, El. The last thing I want is for us to be enemies." Dur-Zod told Jor-El who was like a brother to him when they invaded Mars and destroyed the once beautiful planet and culled a majority of the Martian species leaving only two kinds of Martians left on the planet, Green Martians and White Martians, but alas, that's a history lesson for another time.

"You have abandoned the principles that bound us together. You've taken up the sword against your own people. I will honor the man you once were, Zod. Not this monster you've become." Jor-El said with a tone that was unwavering in Jor's believe that the Zod he knew was truly gone and replaced by this power hungry General who wanted to restore his people's place as the dominant empire that they once were before their leaders/politicians decided to isolate their kind to Kandor and abandoned all Kryptonian claimed worlds and started to use the Kryptonian Growth Codex as a means to reproduce.

Tony Stark and all of the other geniuses in the audience were in amazement at the technology that these Kryptonians possessed and wished to meet Jor-El as he seemed like a fellow scientist.

But before the film could continue the mysterious person who brought all of them together in the theater paused the film as his voice glitches out and then a STANDBY message was seen on the screen as the audience saw different colored portals appear above the other vacant seats and out fell different people from the Multiverse.

Among these people were a species known as Cybertronians, Edenians, Thanos' adopted daughters, Gamora and Nebula, as well as the Guardians of the Galaxy, the whole Kryptonian Law Council, the Sword of Rao, Jor-El and Lara-Lor-Van, Kara-Zor-El (from the Flash), Omni Man aka Nolan Grayson, Debbie Grayson and their teenage son, Mark Grayson aka Invincible, the Guardians of the Globe both new and old, Lord Lui Kang, General Shao, Quan Chi, Teth-Adam's wife and son, the Justice League, all of the Clone Legions of the GAR, the entire Jedi Order, Chancellor Palpatine, the Asgardians, the Maximals, the Organization known as Monarch, the Champions of Lord Lui Kang, and many, many more people who are precious to Kal-El.

All of the people who were just teleported looked around and saw the Avengers and the other people who appeared in the theater first, then a new portal opened in front of the new audience members and out walked the young man who was dressed in a Cyberpunk Samurai shirt, a black Stetson hat, a pair of blue jeans, a brown trench coat, a pair of Converse All Stars shoes and he had on his person, a pair of revolvers that he knew as the Ranger Sequoia and the Huntering Revolver, he also had on a odd looking tubular object that the Jedi recognized as a Lightsaber, and finally on his neck was a very old necklace that actually held his Immortal soul within. When the young man spoke, his voice glitched out to the point where he needed some assistance with his voice from some of the scientists in the theater room. His eyes landed on Natasha's face, and it was then that the Avengers realized that this young man has her eyes and nose along with jet black hair and the build of Jor-El and Kal-El, with the natural borde shoulders and muscular build, on his shoulder was a patch that with the some help from technology that Tony Stark made and was built into each of the chairs read 'Monarch: Titan Biologist' and had the symbol for the mysterious organization above the wording, it was in the shape of a sideways Hourglass.

When the scientists finished helping the young man, the first word he spoke was the following. "Hey, mom. It's been a while." The Immortal Human-Kryptonian Hybrid said to his mother, who was currently processing the new info she and the audience now had laid onto them.

Those who knew Natasha Romanoff were in for a shock when they all saw her eyes well up with tears and then immediately pass out from the state of shock she's currently in as her son, whose name is James Romanoff-Kent as James understood that she wouldn't change her last name as that's what she's been used to being called for years now.

"Uh..... Should we be worried about this woman?" The future Darth Vader asked the teenager who gave the Jedi Order's Grandmaster a nod of understanding. The young man turned to Anakin Skywalker and used a method of clearing Skywalker's mind and was happy to know that he fully removed Palpatine's manipulation of the Chosen One's Destiny.

"Her name is Natalia Alianovna Romanova aka Natasha Romanoff, the Black Widow. Future wife of Kal-El of Krypton and my mother." James told the people who were pulled from their timelines. "Now I know all of you have questions for me regarding why all of you were pulled from your universes, in short, the Multiverse is getting ready for a war from my time and my father murdered all remaining heroes in my timeline. All of you that are present were all killed so.... Lord Lui Kang and I took it upon ourselves to restart history and correct these mistakes."

Lord Lui Kang then walked over to his young friend and most trusted advisor alongside Geras, and put a hand on his shoulder. "I restarted the history of the Multiverse and chose different universes to be merged with mine, I seeked out young James' help after I banished the Tyrant known as Darkseid from this plan of existence and into the dimension where Miss Roth's father resides."

"And onto the elephant in the room.... Sheev Palpatine, for your crimes against any and all species throughout your Universe, Jedi and other Force sensitive people, I, James Romanoff-Kent aka Ja-El of the House of El, hereby sentence you to an eternity of suffering by the hands of the Hellspawn. If anyone wishes to understand why I'm doing this, that information shall be revealed within time." James said as he summoned the current Hellspawn, Al Simmons, to take this waste of flesh down to the lowest pits of Hell.

The audience saw a ring of fire surround Palpatine, who called to Anakin Skywalker for help, who was currently being held back by the Son of Superman and watched as a caped masked man rose out of a pit of Hellfire, sight that caused Lord Lui Kang to be reminded of the original Scorpion, Hanzo Hasashi, and looked to see that he was looking at him. Lord Lui Kang noded his head at the once Mortal Hellspawn and kind of had a small smile on his face when he saw Palpatine trying to fight off Spawn. He the started to say these familiar words that he used to say to James when he helped his defeat Darkseid in his original timeline. "Brutality. Spawn Wins." And watched as Spawn took off Palpatine's head with one very powerful uppercut and dragged the man's body and soul down to hell.

James then told everyone to calm down and take their seats as he went over to his mother and picked her up to place her in her seat that was now able to accommodate two others and told Yelena Belova, Clint Barton, and Melina Vostokoff that this new seat was ment for her family as he then asked Melina if she wanted to be an actual mother to her own son or daughter as he prepared to heal her damaged ovaries that the bastards who made the Red Room Program had damaged and removed completely from her.

Melina looked at her two 'daughters' and asked if she was able to be their biological mother with help from the Immoral Grandson whose currently speaking to her. James gave her a kind smile as he nodded his head, he waved his hand against Melina body, not too close so that he was touching her rather beautiful body but a few inches away from her body and gave her something for the pain as she tried to scream. Feeling each aspect of her DNA be overridden to match Natasha's, who he found out was a member of the Russian Royale Family and whose mother was cast out for some unknown reason.

James then took a sample of her freshly changed DNA and injected it into Yelena as she also could feel the pain of her own DNA being rewritten to match the Romanova Bloodline. He took a step back and looked at his mother who was now wide awake and saw what he did for her 'mother and sister'. Natasha didn't say any words as she embraced her son from the future, though most of the Avengers could hear her say over and over again that she's a mom.

"It's okay, ma. I'm here, and I won't be leaving just yet, I need to bring my father here after we watch his life and this new timeline myself and Lord Lui Kang created together."  James said to his mother.

"Why are you here, James?" Natasha Romanoff asked her son from a dark future that's possible to come to pass if the Avengers and Justice League fail in stopping Darkseid from conquering the Earth and possessing the Anti-Life Equation with the goal of making the very Multiverse his plaything for all of eternity.

"I am here to make sure that these 'movies' don't come to pass and to help all of you remember your pasts with him. For now though..... I'll be needing all of you to continue on with the Film while I deal with something more personal for a bit." James told his mother who he hasn't seen in centuries.

Natasha looked at her son then to the massive screen and then back towards these people she didn't know but obviously her supposed boyfriend turned husband did.

"Do whatever you have to, James. But please, come back here when you've done whatever it is you're doing." Natasha said in way that made her male Avengers friends look at her in a new way.

James nodded his head as he opened up a portal and let the audience see what was on the other side. A chained up, de-powered, beaten and battered Kal-El who was trying to break his chains and kill his son as he was still under the effects of Darkseid's influence over the Anti-Life Equation.

Those who were well attuned to the Force used it to feel the Man of Steel's emotions and only felt pain, sadness and anger towards everyone in the room as by his way of seeing things, they're all ghosts to him.

"Lord Lui Kang, I might need your assistance in undoing Darkseid's work on my father." James said to the former God of Time.

Lui Kang nodded as he followed his young friend into the portal and closed it behind them, allowing for the film to continue from where the audience left off at.

"Take him away." General Zod of Kandor told his men and looked on as Jor-El was taken towards the lower levels of the Council's Tower.

Jor-El was seen being escorted by three of Zod's men when Jor's House of El service bot named Kelex floated in front of the four men and asked if everything was alright when one of the members of the Sword of Rao pointed his weapon against Jor's head.

"Sir, is everything alright?" Kelex asked her master/owner who nodded his head slowly and closed his eyes as the bot created the equivalent of a flashbang in the soldiers eyes, temporarily blinding them.

It was the perfect opportunity for the Jor-El to make his escape as he slammed one of them into the wall, breaking his back, he then slammed his closed fist into one of their ribs, breaking it into several pieces. Two more appeared from around the corner as Jor was fighting with the one who had the rifle and used it to kill the two who were approaching them. He punched the one was trying to get his weapon back and turned to Kelex and asked it the get his Lady Lara-Lor-Van aka his wife and mother to their son, Kal-El.

The beautiful face of Kal-El's mother appeared on the service bot liquid geo front who immediately warned her husband about two more guards coming to kill him. "Jor... Behind you!" She said with a panicked expression.

Jor spun around and shot at them and turned back to Kelex and told his wife that it is time for them to send their son away as Zod would have Kal-El be seen as an abomination to their society.

Jor and Kelex ventured out of the High Council's Tower and onto a landing platform and saw the destruction that the Sword of Rao has caused in their coup. Jor-El yelled with a commanding tone for his mount to come to him.

The audience then saw a massive insect like creature roar in response and fly towards his owner and landed in front of Jor-El, the beast's name is H'Raka and is one of many Kryptonian War Kites.

The Terran Scientists were all in amazement at the technological advancements the Kryptonian people made, while Omni Man aka Nolan Grayson watched the screen and studied his species long forgotten rival. He wondered if this 'Superman' was as tough as Viltrumites. He gently shook his head and continued to watch the film about the Earth's Mightiest Hero and wondered if his kind were able to the conquer Earth with the vast amount of heroes that spawn on the planet.

The Kryptonians in the audience were saddened by these events as this was the beginning of the end of Krypton for the rest of the universe at large and to most other species, they were thankful that the Kryptonian Empire was beginning to end.

"Why must we fade away with a whimper instead of finding a new home to colonize?" Said General Dru-Zod of Kandor to his fellow people, not really caring for these lower life forms in this odd room.

Jor-El went to speak and was stopped by a new voice that entered the room and one that made everyone stop and look at him. "Because Fate didn't want our people's Empire to continue. Fate wanted our kind to live among other species." He said as he exited the portal with the same look as when they all saw him before. The Man of Steel was back and this time, he wanted to make sure certain events never happened for his past.

Kal then looked at everyone in the room and noticed that both his biological parents and human parents were present, the Avengers both old and new, the Justice League, Captain Carter and many more people that he knew of and recognized as Cybertronians, Edenians, the Guardians of the Galaxy, some members of the Viltrumite Empire. But the one person he was looking for was the mother of his children, Natasha Romanoff.

Being the only one in the room to still have his powers, he floated off of the ground and gently landed next to Natasha, who by the time he came up to her had fully regained her memories of him and their relationship. "C-Clark?" Natasha asked him as she raised her left hand to gently caress the side of his bearded face where her green eyes met his and knew that this was the same man she fell for all those years ago in Ohio.

"Hey, Natasha." Clark said with a kind yet sad smile at the woman he fell for over a lifetime ago by his timeline, that being the Knightmare Timeline and gently leaned into her soft hand as he closed his eyes, hoping that this wasn't a twisted dream made by the Anti-Life Equation that flowed through him.

"Mother, Father, as much as it good to see you two reunited at long last, I must advise you that we have an entire timeline to view." James said to his parents as he and Lord Lui Kang appeared from the portal.

"Of course, James. Let's get back to this 'film' of my life." Clark said to everyone but more so to Natasha as he held her hand in his and guided her back towards her seat.

"Hold on. I feel like we're missing some critical exposition here." A new voice said as a odd looking 'sparkle' circle appeared near the side of the theater's wall and out came a man wearing bright yellow and blue suit who seemed pissed off to be here and a man wearing a bright red and black suit with a mask and has two Adamantium Katanas along with two Gold plated Desert Eagles and a young girl who seemed to be around Peter's age. "Who are all these people?" Asked the man wearing the odd bright yellow suit. James quickly undid his suppression of everyone's powers as he knew just how painful it was for Wolverine to move with the Adamantium bonded to his bones.

"Logan?" Asked Ororo Munroe aka Goddess of Thunder Storm as she floated above her companions and down to the Wolverine and placed a hand on his left cheek. "Is it really you?" She asked with misty eyes.

This version of the Wolverine was in a relationship with his universe's Storm before she died and he turned to whole world against the X-Men. Before he became known as the Worst Wolverine in the Multiverse.

"Wade Winston Wilson, Deadpool. James 'Logan' Howlett. Laura Kinney aka the Daughter of Wolverine. Welcome to my theater in a pocket dimension outside of the rest of the Multiverse." James said as he looked at them and remembered that he didn't bring the Wolverine from the X-Men's timeline because he's dead and this version of Logan is the same but different because of the suit and his different memories. "Just tell her, Logan. You may never get another chance to do so." Said James as he watched as both the Goddess of Thunder Storm and Logan kissed, alternate universes be damned.

Some of the X-Men smiled at the reunion of the alternate Goddess of Thunder, Storm and the Wolverine.

James gave a kind smile at the reunion and snapped his fingers as the enitre room shifted to reveal some of the Titans who fight for the protection of the Earth and Mankind.

The King of the Monsters, Titanus Gojira, The King of the Gojira, Zo-Zla-Halawa, The Monster Who Ate a Star, Earth's Protector and the Protector of the Natural Balance of All Living Things; Godzilla!

The Queen of the Monsters, The Immortal Moth, Titanus Mosura, Giver of Life, The Winged One, Defender of the Iwi; Mothra!

The Eighth Wonder of the World; God of Skull Island, King of Skull Island, The Mountain who Thunders Death, King of the Primates, King of the Great Apes, Big Fella, King of the Hollow Earth, The Mighty Kong, Monke, Titanus Kong: King Kong!

Those who could use the Force felt an immense wave of power from the 3 Titans and then saw the others that were locked in their own unique cages. All of the audiance saw a massive golden hydra who reeked of evil intentions.

Monster Zero, The Devil, The Devil With Three Heads, Death Song of the Three Storms, The One Who is Many, Mandandare Aqenomba, False King, Invasive Species, Moe, Larry, and Curly, Ichi, Ni, and San a.k.a. Kevin, Alpha, Angry and Young, Azhi Dahaka, The Three-Headed Foe; King Gihdorah!

Some members of the audiance yelped and screamed upon seeing the massive beasts and noticed that Kong was looking for someone among the hundreds/thousands of people and found who he was looking for, the sole survivor of the Iwi Tribe on Skull Island; Jia. The young girl gave Kong a smile and signed to the King of Skull Island, who in return signed back that he was glad that she was safe from harms way.

When he signed to Jia these words the people who could understand sign language were amazed by the fact that a massive ape was intelligent enough to understand sign language and communicate with a person who was significantly smaller than himself.

The King of the Monsters looked at the odd people on the screen and studied their expressions and emotions and understood that something of great importance was happening on this alien world.

James then decided that now was a good time to bring in the villains from each hero's respective Timelines and started with Obadiah Stane, then Emil Blonsky, Ivan Vanko, Justin Hammer, a past version of Loki (pre-TVA abduction), Thragg, Conquest, Steppenwolf, Ultron, Doomsday, Megatron, Sentinel Prime, Palpatine's Force Ghost (as he dead), Darth Vader, Ronan the Accuser, Ego the Living Planet's Human Avatar (moved from his seat), Yon-Rogg, Ares (Former God of War), Cheetah aka Barbara Minerva, Doctor Poison aka Dr. Maru, Maxwell Lord (Supergirl Variant not Pedro Pascal's as he's playing Reed Richards of the Fantastic Four), Brainiac, General Shao of Outworld, Shang Tsung, Quan Chi, The Joker, The Suicide Squad (minus Harley Quinn, Ratcatcher 2, Rick Flag, Deadshot), Amanda Waller (because she's a bitch who deserves to sit with aliens and super-powered individuals that she has no control over), The Enchantress (separated from Dr. Moore), Darkseid, Granny Goodness, Desaad, Thanos, The Children of Thanos and many more notable villains and minor villains.

James eyed the self proclaimed New God of Apokolipis, the one who killed his mother and unborn sisters, the theater then was hit by a wave of killer intent as James directed it at the New God as he wanted to oh so badly to rip out Darkseid's spin with his head still attracted to and revive him again and again and again just to let out his anger.

"James, calm yourself, we will all get our chance to kill the bastard when we're all returned to our respective timelines." Clark told his Immortal son as he also stared at the New God of Apokolipis and could sense that this version of Darkseid was plotting how to kill all of these lesser creatures that surrounded him with the exception of the Titans. Clark had a feeling that Darkseid would attempt to use the Anti-Life Equation to control the likes of Godzilla and Gihdorah.

"Now that we all are here. I expect for each and every one of you to not kill each other. We have a timeline to watch after all." James said the new arrivals.

James resumed the film and rewound it to let the newcomers see what has happened up to his grandfather, Jor of the House of El, summoning H'Raka and the destruction caused by General Zod's coup.

-Genesis Chamber Tower-

Jor-El and Kelex both got on H'Raka and flew down to the lower depths of Kandor, where the Genesis Chamber Tower was located at. H'Raka hovered above one of the Chamber's embryonic water entrances. "Can you see the Codex?" Jor asked Kelex.

"It's just beneath the central hub, sir. But I am compelled to warn you, breaching the Genesis Chamber is a Class-B Crime punishable by-" Kelex said and was interrupted by her master.

"Nobody care anymore, Kelex, the world's about to come to an end." Jor said, as he took off his robes, leaving only his Kryptonian Skinsuit on and dove gracefully into the embryonic water and swam past the stalks that held the very last of Krypton's Generation of Children to ever be born with the exception of his own son, Kal of the House of El. Jor just hoped that someone from the planet known as Earth would raise his son under the right conditions.

'Kal..... if you ever find yourself alone or afraid. Just know that you are a member of the House of El. A strong House with an even stronger history. Know that your mother, Lara and I, believe that you will accomplish wonders for the Human Race.' Jor thought to himself, as he reached the Central Hub, where the Codex was being used to harvest the DNA from to encode the next Generation of Kryptonians with their predestined roles in Kryptonian Society.

Jor breached the air pocket where the Growth Codex was held by an invisible force that Jor grabbed. When he did so, he marveled at it's golden Old High Kryptonian (an ancient language lost to the Kryptonians for centuries) and stared at it for a moment before the alarm sounded that someone removed the Codex from it's permanent position within the Central Hub.

Outside of the watery embryonic fluid 3 Kryptonian Attack Ships were waiting as Zod had sent for one of his men to retrieve the Codex for the High General of Krypton. Jor reached a ledge and pulled himself up from the fluid and had one of the barrels of the front Attack Ship trained on him. "Jor-El, by the authority of General Zod, release the Codex." The pilot ordered Jor.

Jor-El looked over the ledge that led off the Genesis Chamber Tower and jumped just as lethal bolt of blue plasma was shot at his feet from behind, hoping that H'Raka was nearby with Kelex to catch him in time.

"Oh no!" Exclaimed Peter Parker as he also regained his memories of this timeline the many heroes and Princess Shuri, who was extremely thankful for Superman for saving the world from Zod.

"Wait, a few questions here." Tony Stark said as he shot up from his seat and looked around at everyone to gain their attention as the film was paused.

"Yes, Tony?" Said Clark, waiting for the legendary Iron Man to speak.

"If your people were a vast and powerful Empire out there among the stars, then why haven't we heard of them before? Thor, surly you've heard of them." Asked Tony to the God of Thunder.

"Because the very first interaction with them was a glorious battle of might and skill as we Asgardians mainly use melee combat while the Kryptonians much more advanced technology than we do. That and they learned rather quickly to not mess with my Grandfather, Bor Burison, and the wrath of the Nine Realms of Yggdrasil." Said the God of Thunder.

Odin Borson nodded in confirmation of that fact and remembered the day his father came home to Asgard and told the tale of his great victory over the Kryptonian Empire and how one member of the great House of El made the fighting stop with the cultural exchange of knowledge, the Asgardians got a very old book about the founding of Kryptonian Society by the Houses of El and Zod and how the House of El were the first group that developed the hand to hand combat that most of the Kryptonian Military used, and the Kryptonians got knowledge about the rest of the universe's great other Empires such as the Kree and Skrulls and their unending war with one another.

The film then resumed as no one else spoke and James made it to where the heroes couldn't hear the villains and the villains couldn't hear the heroes with the exception of mere moments ago.

H'Raka roared as she caught her master and bobbed and weaved around the various different Kryptonian Ships that took part in the Battle for Kandor and trying desperately to evade Zod's men. After managing to fly in between a Juggernaut and a retrofitted Scout Ship that was used by the Council's Sapphire Guard (their private police force/army in times of crisis.) H'Raka groaned in pain as a piece of shrapnel was lodged in her neck, still smoking as it's superheated metal burned it's way deeper into her throat. "Easy, H'Raka." Jor said to his War Kite who willed herself to fly her master back to Citadel home of the House of El that was located on the outskirts of Kandor. She crash landed on the landing platform and Jor comforted H'Raka till she took her last breath, somewhat thankful she passed before the planet imploded, he just hoped it would be the same for the other animals he owns as he put in place a failsafe after Kal's Pod left Krypton and that was poisoning their food with a lethal amount of whatever could kill them instantly instead of suffering through hours of the poison.

-Inside The Citadel of El-

"Have you found a habitable world?" Jor asked Kelex and Lara as he was redressed in his robes again and watched the liquid geo of Kelex's 'face' as Lara responded with a "We have."

"Orbiting a main sequence Yellow Star, just as you said it would." Said the House of El's service drone/A.I. and showed them the solar system of Sol and the various different landmasses that made up the different continents of Earth.

"A young star, his cells will drink it's radiation." Said Jor as he looked at a Liquid Geo model of the Sol System and the planet and then the dominant species of the planet from Earth known as Humans and showed Jor and Lara the human anatomy, bone structure and the brief history of Earth from what the Asgardian database/scrolls had up till the current year and time/month; February 29th, 1980. "It's a seemingly intelligent population." He said as his wife voiced her concerns.

"He'll be an outcast. A freak. They'll kill him." She told Jor as she looked at him but he didn't turn and look at her. "How? He'll be a God to them." He said as he eyed the diagram of a human to see if they were compatible with a Kryptonian was very much surprised by what he was seeing, given the fact that Jor was the leading member of the Science Guild and met with the current Asgardian King; Odin Borson and was given a scroll on the Asgardian anatomy and also found that Asgardians were also compatible with Kryptonians. 'If only we were able to join you, Kal, the study of a new species is an amazing opportunity. But for now you will eventually learn all about them as I have for our people and the Asgardians.' Jor thought to himself.

Some of the heroes and villains of Earth who managed to regain their memories all had the same thought: 'Like you wouldn't believe...'

"What if the doesn't make it? He'll die out there... Alone." Said Lara as she pacing around the small seat for Kal where his Infant Ship was at. "I can't do it." She said as Jor tried to calm her down. "I thought I could... ...now that he's here..." She said, almost crying.

"Lara, Krypton is doomed. It's his only chance now. It's our people's only hope." He told her as Kelex gave an alert. "What is it, Kelex?" He asked his family's old Service Drone.

"There are five Attack Ships converging from the East. Citadel's defenses are being scanned and evaluated." She said as she showed who they belong to: The Sword of Rao.

"I'll upload the Codex." He told Lara, who wanted to hold onto her infant son one last time. "No, wait..." She said as she held onto Kal in a protective manner.

"Lara." Said Jor as he attempted to pry his son out of his wife's arms. "Just.... let me look at him." She said as she cried sadly. "We'll never get to see him walk. Never hear him say our names."

"But out there among the stars. He will live." Said Jor as he gently took his son from his wife, who gently kissed his little head and Jor did the same as he gently placed his son into his seat on the Infant Ship and started the process of binding his DNA with that of the Codex.

"That must have been the hardest decision for you to make, Mrs. El." Said Peter Parker as he noticed that the seats shifted to allow for Kal-El's whole family to sit next to each other.

Lara-Lor-Van looked at the Human teenager and wondered what his relationship was with Kal-El, who seemed to understand her silent question. "Natasha calls him her peơehok-паук or маленький паук which translated into English means Baby Spider or Little Spider. And he calls her his Mama-паук or Большой-паук which means Mama Spider or Big Spider. It's an Arachnid thing they have. Plus it give Natasha the opportunity to be a mother to someone she sees as a son figure." Clark told his Kryptonian family and to everyone in the room.

"What do you mean by that, Kal?" Said his father and mother from Krypton, still not overly familiar with each continents history.

They then saw his eyes grow dark, very similar to that of General Zod he swore to find Kal 30+ years ago by his timeline. "You can thank an organization known as the Red Room in Russia. They-" He was cut off by Natasha who held onto his hand tightly, showing him it was her story to tell and not his.

"The Red Room took young girls from all over the globe, homeless girls, girls being sex-trafficked or worse and trained them to be the best spys for the KGB back when they weren't obsessed with rebuilding their Nukes during the early 2000's. They made a kind of 'graduation' ceremony, if you can even call getting your ovaries and the ability bear children a graduation. Still keeps me up some nights." She said as visibly shivered from having to remember that horrible place.

Jor and Lara were completely horrified that the human race were capable of such heinous acts as were all of the Aliens that were present with the exception of Clark who just a few hours after being revived and helping the League stop the Unity from coming to pass. Was alerted to Natasha's location with the custom belt she was gifted by Clark, a Liquid Geo belt that had a black with a red outlined Black Widow symbol on it that acted like a homing beacon for him to find her anywhere on Earth.

After he found her and realized her situation and the Red Room's floating base in the sky, he decided to do the only thing that sense to him. Kill everyone involved with the torture and brainwashing of the Widows and bring Dreykov to justice by locking him up in a Supermax Prison known as the Raft, that just so happened to be within New York's Hudson River, hidden from public view and where no Supervillian can escape from knowing that Superman, the Avengers and Justice League were mere moments away from the Prison.

"I did however, discover, that our advanced technology was able to reverse what they did to her in my timeline. It's how James was born. Wellllll..... more like the DNA of a human was compatible with the Genesis Chamber after it was fixed by myself, Tony, Cyborg, Bruce Wayne and Thor, who brought the extremely pressurized glass for the the Genesis Chamber. Me and Natasha talked about it for days before we gave it a try and look at how he turned out. Pretty alright, if I do say so myself." Clark said as he ruffled his son's hair after taking off his hat.

"Wait.... how did you override the predestined roles for him?" Said The Kryptonian Law Council as they were intrigued by how it was possible but also knew they held no jurisdiction over Earth it's laws or the Last Son of Krypton's way he destroyed thousands of years of work with help from Humans.

"Hm? Oh, that was Victor's and Tony's doing, they found the flaws they had on the developmental process on each Kryptonian Fetuses and corrected it by removing it entirely from the Scout Ship's Database. That's how James is one of the most unique Kryptonian hybrids. He's the bridge between two people's. Unlike his unborn sisters from my timeline..... following the procedure that repaired her womb.... needless to say we both didn't get any sleep for a solid week. Only short naps." Clark said as he saw Natasha's face go bright red on her pale features as she slapped his muscular arm.

"Clark! That private information, and you're telling everyone either we don't know or we do know about that!" Natasha exclaimed while still blushing like crazy.

"Oooo. No, no, Cестра, let him tell." Said Yelena as she seemed very interested by that little tidbit of info.

"No, no, no. We must continue with this so we can all prevent the Multiversal War we all eventually fight in." Said Clark as he allowed for his son to click the play button on the remote he has.

As Jor finished up with the bonding process, he made a Command Key with his Subconscious built into it and placed it into the Infant Ship as he and Lara said their goodbyes to Kal. "Goodbye, my son. Our hopes and dreams travel with you." He said as the small seat raised up and was locked into the Ship.

Jor went to where his family's ceremonial armor was at and put it on, like the head of the House of El should in times of crisis.

"Lady Lara, Phantom Drives are coming online." Said Kelor to Lara-Lor-Van.

"Proceed to ignition." She said as she looked Jor getting ready to face Zod.

-Outside The Citadel of El-

Zod's remaining forces were being pushed back to the outskirts of Kandor and followed the trail of Jor-El.

"Concentrate fire on the main doors!" Zod ordered his men as his ship landed near the edge of the platform.

The main doors blew open as Faora-Ul walked up to her General. "General. We have identified a ignition within the Citadel." She told her General.

"A launch. Hold this platform, Commander." Zod told his Sub-Commander and went inside to confront his old friend.

-Within The Citadel-

Zod and his two personal bodyguards went into the Citadel and stopped just as Jor exited from behind the Phantom Drive Engine smoke.

"I know you stole the Codex, Jor-El, surrender it and I'll let you live." Said Zod to Jor.

"This is a second chance for all of Krypton. Not just the bloodlines you deem worthy." Said Jor in defiance.

"What have you done?" Asked Zod, completely unprepared for his former friend's answer.

"We have had a child, Zod. A boy child. Krypton's first natural in centuries. And he will be free, free to forge his own destiny." Said Jor as he watched his former friend's face twist with rage.

"Heresy! Destroy it!" He ordered his two guards who were quickly shot by Jor-El.

Both the High General of Krypton and the Best Scientist of Krypton fought each other for the fate of Kal's life. Jor cut a long wound across the right side of his face, leaving it as a permanent reminder that a Scientist of the Science Guild bested him.

Jor was somehow gaining the upper hand on Zod as the latter was having a difficult time keeping up with Jor's fists to counter him.

Jor was redirecting Zod's blows with grace and speed as he pushed Zod back against a fuel tank and managed to subdue Zod, punching him to the ground.

The High General of Krypton got up slowly, still processing what just happened and looked at Lara. "Lara, listen to me, the Codex is Krypton's future! Abort the launch!" He said, trying to reason with the woman.

Lara and Jor's eyes met as he nodded and Lara pressed the button that sent her son away from Zod.

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!" Yelled Zod as he unsheathed a hidden blade from his gauntlet and quickly stabbed Jor-El straight through the heart, letting his now dead friend die while seeing his face and eventually his son's Ship exiting the Citadel of El.

Lara ran to where her now deceased husband was at and cried over his fresh dead body. "Your son, Lara. Where have you sent him?" Asked Zod as he stared at the opening of the roof then to Lara to await her response.

"His NAME is KAL, son of El. And he's beyond your reach." She said to the murderer of her husband.

Zod then went back outside of the Citadel of El and ordered one of his pilots to bring down the ship. "Bring that ship down!" He ordered.

"Target locked." Said the pilot as he changed the tri barrel to a homing missile and was shot down by the Sapphire Guard of the Council of Five (Law Council) and ordered the now defeated Sword of Rao to lay down their arms and surrender.

-Law Council's Tower: Hours following the Kryptonian Civil War-

"General Zod, for the crimes of murder and high treason, the Council has sentenced you and your fellow insurgents to three hundred cycles of somatic reconditioning. Do you have any last words?" Said Lor-Em, the Council of Five's Leader, asked the High General of Krypton and knew he wouldn't answer with the words that the Council wanted to hear.

"You wouldn't kill us yourself! You wouldn't sully your hands! But you'll damn us to a black hole for eternity!" Yelled Zod, who spit at the Council's feet. "Jor-El was right! You're a pack of fools every last one of you!"

Zod then turned to Lara-Lor-Van, the sole survivor of House of El in Kandor, while being restrained by the Sapphire Guard, who struggled to hold their former General from getting to her. "And you!" He said with venom in his voice.

"You believe your son is safe? I will find him! I will reclaim what you have taken from us!" Said Zod as he was escorted back to his spot in the middle of the open room.

"I will find him! I will find him, Lara!" He yelled as he watched her reaction, noticing her eyes getting teary from the thought of her son dying by Zod's hands.

The audience could feel Zod's hatred for the Last Son of Krypton as he yelled out his last word before being sent into the Black Zero prison ship and into the Phantom Zone, a pitch black void in an alternate dimension that the Kryptonian Empire used for some of their most dangerous criminals.

"I WILL FIND HIM!" Yelled the General as he and his fellow officers were then incased in some kind of ice like substance and sent up into the prison ship known as Black Zero.

Some of the audience who regained their memories jumped in their seats when hearing the General's promise to find Kal-El, wherever he may be out in the vast universe.

"33 years and he in fact, did find me, inadvertently though. It's all thanks to the Space Stone being on Earth and being meddled with by the scientists at SHEILD." Said Kal-El as he held Natasha's hand softly.

"And I agree, that we stupidly put the spotlight on Earth, look at the many different world ending events that have happened since Stark's reveal as Iron Man." Said Nicholas Fury.

"Hopefully our past selves can give this Zod a fair fight." Said Steve Rogers along with the rest of the Avengers as he looked at the Kryptonians in the audience with the humans.

"With the past version of myself there with you all, it should be an much better outcome." Said Clark as he watched the screen that played with events leading up to his ancestral homeworld imploding and waited till his son continued the film of his life.

-Above Kandor/Krypton's Orbit-

Black Zero launched from the Tower of Five's former public execution spot on the highest level of the Tower and went into the Orbit of Krypton and into the Phantom Zone Gate and disappeared from this dimension and into lifeless void that is the Phantom Zone.

-With Lady Lara-

Lady Lara-Lor-Van of the House of El was dressed a traditional Kryptonian mourning dress that was a gift from Jor's brother before she lost contact with him as his Scout Ship had seemingly disappeared from the universe itself, she didn’t know that the A.I. known as Brainiac had taken the Kryptonian and killed him to gain information about Krypton. She placed her hand on Jor's ceremonial armor and watched as it closed for the last time as earthquakes started, signaling that the time of the Kryptonian Empire was at it's end.

"Lady Lara, shouldn't you seek refuge?" Asked Kelor.

"There is no refuge, Kelor. Jor-El was right, this is the end." Lady Lara said as she looked up to the sky, hoping her son could hear her. "Make a better world than ours, Kal." And with those final words the planet of Krypton started to implode, fire and hot magma burning the remaining ocean, city of Kandor and finally the Citadel of El with Lady Lara-Lor-Van still inside looking out at her dying world.

-Krypton's Orbit From Sanctuary I (Thanos' Ship)-

The Mad Titan looked out the observation deck of his ship and grinned like a mad man, behind him was a female version of himself that actually was his twin sister who seemed distraught seeing the once proud Kryptonian Empire be reduced to nothing but dust and echos. "So begins the end of half of all life in the universe." Said the crazed Titan who wanted to murder trillions with the Infinity Stones in an instant, an act of mercy in his mind instead of butchering half of a world's population.

-27.1 light years away from Krypton at Saturn in the Sol System-

The Infant Ship that carried the Last Son of Krypton came warping into the Sol System and flew fast towards the Earth, thankfully towards America and not some place like Russia or North Korea, god knows what could've happened if that came to pass.

It zipped past the Moon and headed straight towards North America to Smallville, Kansas and crash landed in front of the red pickup truck of Johnathan Kent and Martha Kent.

The screen then said the words 33 Years Later as James decided to press the pause button and snapped his fingers to bring in some of his father's other future wives and his many mothers to sit next to his family as he edited the seat arrangement.

Chapter Text

Chapter 2 - Reunions, the Scout Ship, First Flight, and the Party!

As James edited the seating arrangement for everyone as he, however, did not change the seats for the villains wanting to keep them in the same exact spot they all were at. He kept the film about his father's timeline paused as he waited for everyone to ask their questions about Krypton, who he exactly is and why he's brought them all here.

The first to speak was Captain America of the Avengers from the Sacred Timeline, and he didn't seem like he wanted to be here with all of these different super-powered individuals that weren't apart of his world. "Who are you exactly, kid? You claim to be the son of Natasha and Clark, but I'm not too sure that it's even possible." Said the First Avenger.

"That's because I've not been born yet, Captain. I'm a Time Traveler, I was conceived by my time... thousands of years ago, but as for the actual date for which I was actually conceived; December 9th 2004 and was put in a cryogenic chamber for years...." James said as he looked at the ground, not wanting to look at his mother and father, not wanting to explain why he remembers things differently from what his father remembers. New Timeline, New Memories.

"How....?" Melina asked Natasha as she looked at daughter with wide eyes and happiness as she had a feeling that the Red Room would've done something like this.

"I believe I can answer that, Miss Vostokoff. A year after my father died in 1999, I started to wander the whole world in search for answers about my past, I started to work the occasional odd jobs here and there, for a while stayed in South Africa and helped the people who lived there under the employment of a Humanitarian effort to help the people of many tribes build a multiple water wells. While I was there I encountered a woman, she never told me her name but I now know that she was a member of the Widows, one day after she and I had uh.... well sex, she told me to not come to work that day and a massacre happened at the Humanitarian workers camp while I was at the airport. I never saw her again after that. I guess that's how the Red Room makes more soldiers from their Widows. They inseminated Natasha to see where it would lead is my best guess." Said the Man of Steel as he stroked his bearded face in thought.

Natasha then looked confused for a moment before she gripped her head as the memories she knew from her original timeline were changed as she saw the birth of her son and him being taken from her by the Red Room after James was of the age of 2. She can somehow hear his cries for her as she opened her eyes and looked at her son.

"It's okay, Ma, I'm here. And I won't be going anywhere anytime soon." James said as he hugged his mother and lightly pecked her forehead as he then waited for more questions.

"How is that a supposedly advanced species than ours could let their own General plan a coup against it's leaders?" Asked Iron Man as he recalled how technologically advanced Krypton was when they watched Kal-El's birth and sent off of the dying world.

"The Council of Five were blinded by their own hubris, Mr....?" Said Jor-El as he turned to look at the human with an Arc Reactor in his chest.

Tony then stuck out his hand for the brightest mind of Krypton to shake. "Tony Stark, Billionaire, Philanthropist and one of the brightest minds on Earth. I made this Arc Reactor in my chest to save my own life." Said Tony as he waited for Jor-El to shake his hand.

Jor-El looked at the human and raised an eyebrow as he was confused by the gesture but thankfully Kal-El stepped in to explain some of Earth's customs to his father, mother and cousin that he had no idea even existed. "Dad, it's what they call a hand shake, a greeting if you will. Kinda like how you nod your head sometimes as acknowledgment for some people in the past we just watched." Clark said to his father as he shook Tony's hand to demonstrate how the greeting gesture is done.

Jor-El nodded as he copied what his son did but a bit gently as he knew about Kryptonian strength under a yellow star and greeted Tony Stark. "It is good to meet one of my son's friends, Mr. Stark. I trust he hasn't been too much trouble?" Said Jor as he was curious about what his son has done for 33+ years since he last saw Kal as a baby.

It was Martha Kent's turn to speak and respond to her son's biological mother and father. "Clark was a good boy growing up, his father and I worked so hard to give him a normal childhood, Jonathan would take Clark fishing and taught him how to work on vehicles." Martha said as she shyly waved a hand at the biological parents of her son. Finding their gazes to be intimidating but with some level of comfort in them, knowing their son was taken in by good people.

Martha's eyes then widened as she remembered that she was baking an apple pie and other various foods to send to Clark in New York and to Natasha, who also was in New York. She then clutched her head as she saw memories of two different timelines. One where it was her son and a redhead reporter and this new unique universe that her family seemed to be apart of. "Oh..... my head..." Martha said with pain for a moment before it subsided.

"I see that some people here is experiencing some headaches and seeing two different timelines, yes?" Asked Lord Lui Kang as he had his hands in a neat folded position by his waist. The responses were simply head nods as he continued to explain what was happening to them. "As young James already said, all of you have died. The entire Multiverse has ended and we are standing in the NEW universe. Known as the Sacred Timeline by most interdimensional Titans or Gods of Time. James approached me with the idea of saving not one universe, but all of them. Some of you are from alternate universes but all follow the Sacred Timeline's path. Towards a Multiversal War with Kang the Conquerer and his inevitable victory against all universes till his universe remains. Oh and worry not, Miss Kent, I finished cooking your food and multiplied it by the thousands for everyone here. It is a simple press of the little blue button near where most would put their drinks in, press it, and a Kryptonian Service Drone will come by with your food. And yes, Miss Jones, there is strong alcohol for you and those who can drink a lot." Said Lord Lui Kang as he then summoned food or shielded radiation for the Titans of Earthrealm to consume and made them like the infinite refills he placed on all drinks, alcohol or normal things like soda and water.

The King of Skull Island didn't understand what the small yet seemingly powerful man was talking about but once the mention of food was brought up he wondered what it would be for himself and his fellow Titans of Earthrealm. Kong saw small cows that were the same size as his hand appear in a small holding pin in front of his cross-legged position in front of the King of the Monsters and picked up one of the animals and instead of eating it, Kong pet the small animal and placed it back with it's brethren. Even a King has standards when it comes to his food and Kong prefers to hunt his food instead of killing a defenseless animal.

Natasha and Clark both looked at their son, who was still stareing at the ground as they waited for James to explain himself and why they were seeing two different timelines. Both parents had their arms crossed over their chests as they eyed their son.

"James.... What did you do. Why am I remembering two different ways of your conception?" Clark asked his Immortal son who mumbled something about the reason being that they all died. "What do you mean we're all dead?" Asked Clark, who used his enhanced hearing to understand what his son said.

"All of you are dead. Everybody here minus myself, Lord Lui Kang and the Titans of Earthrealm are the immortal beings who can't die. Even Kong is at some level, immortal. Lord Lui Kang and I made a deal with the One Above All and The Watcher, Uatu, to have all of the people, good and bad, watch a new timeline of events as this one is unlike any that's come before. Loki, here, in the distant future becomes the God of Stories and recreates the Sacred Timeline to be a better one than any previous iteration that's come before, he is the reason why this unique combined universe's Timeline even exists. He doesn't want the story to end with everyone he knows or has known to die. It's the reason why the Conquerer isn't here. Because his universe's great grand parents have been yet to be made." James explained as he was asked tons of questions to which his only response was 'Spoilers' with a small grin.

Most of the Avengers who remembered Loki's Invasion of New York in 2012 all were in shock and yelled thing like 'how's that possible, he's a bad guy' or 'Doesn't that mean he's like God, controlling our destinies?' from the team, well, more like from Clint Barton and Steve Rogers.

In Clark's case he remembered when Loki sacrificed himself to save Thor and Kal during the events of the Convergence of all 9 Realms of Yggdrasill and heard the story from Thor about how Loki is kinda the reason for Ragnarok happening to Asgard.

All of the Asgardians that knew Loki and his normal mischievous ways all looked at him with shock and surprised at the mention of the God of Mischief becomes the God of Stories for the New Timeline/New Era as Lord Lui Kang calls it.

Odin looked his son with a wide eye as he wished his lovely wife, Frigga, was here to hear this newly revealed information about Loki. James knew what the All-Father wanted and granted him this wish by snapping his fingers together and a portal appeared above the All-Father and out fell his wife, Frigga.

Thor and Odin both got up to catch her as did Loki as she Queen of Asgard looked around the room and noticed the odd screen and wondered what exactly was happening as she saw Kal-El in a black Kryptonian Skinsuit with the House of El emblem standing proud on his chest and noticed that he had messy hair and a long beard.

After a lengthy explanation as to why they all are here and who they are watching, Lady Frigga gave Kal and Lady Romanoff a kind smile as she had a feeling that James was their son by his age and with the fact that he has Natasha's eyes and nose along with jet black hair and the build of Jor-El and Kal-El.

'Strong genes from both parents to give their child a chance at life.' She thought to herself as she sat down where her husband's seat was located at.

Odin then walked over to where Loki and Thor were sitting gave both his sons a hand on their shoulders and told them both how proud of he is of them as he figured that if Loki became the God of Stories then Thor unlocked his full potential and became the true Asgardian God of Thunder.

James then gripped the side of his head, his hat falling to the floor to reveal his jet black hair that similar to his father's and maternal Grandmother's hair. He started to see everyone's insides with his X-Ray Vision and could hear the smallest noise that was made and groaned in pain.

Clark could see that his son was starting to experience the same issues he did when he first got his powers and told everyone in a commanding tone to be quiet and told his son to focus on his voice and only his so he wouldn't experience the pain he did for a month after gaining his enhanced hearing. "James... Focus on my voice, try to... try to pretend it as an island. Can you see it?" He asked his and only got a nod with a moan of pain. "Swim towards it, son." He told his son and saw that his son's panicked expression returned to its calm demeanor.

"How'd you learn that?" James asked his father and got a smile in response and was shown his human Grandmother.

"Your father had a very good teacher, Grandson." Martha said, the word 'Grandson' feeling strange on her lips as she said it again and quickly registered that she had a grand baby! "I have a Grandson!" She exclaimed with happiness and brought both Natasha, Clark and James into a big hug.

James, who wasn't really used to human touch in thousands of years, awkwardly hugged his human Grandmother back and gestured for his biological grandparents to join the hug as he knew that Martha Kent would love to interact with his father's biological parents.

Clark saw both his human mother and biological parents hug himself, the deadly Black Widow and their son in a rather awkward yet beautiful moment of family bonding. "Alright, I think we all should continue with the Sacred Timeline's well timeline, right, James?" Clark asked as the Kents let got of Natasha and the Els and sat back down in their new seating arrangements.

James pressed play on the remote he held and watched as the room went back to being dark and the audience saw the same words the first part of this new timeline.

33 Years Later

Location: Artic Ocean on the Debbie Sue

The Debbie Sue, a Crab catcher vessel, was sailing the cold Artic Ocean during the first of the year in 2013 and on this crab catcher was a older Clark Kent with a small beard as he followed the instructions of the first mate of the Debbie Sue. A bundle of line got caught on a cage and fell below, Clark went to pick it up but didn't notice the cage about to fall on top of him and was pushed by the first mate.

"Watch it, Dumbass!" The first mate yelled at Clark due to the harsh tides and overall frustration at the new hire and helped Clark get to his feet. "Keep your eyes open or you're gonna get squashed. Where the hell'd they find you, Greenhorn." The man said as he walked back to the other deckhands to help them.

"Well he was rude." Martha mumbled as both Jor and Lara were a bit confused by the events and were hoping to see some of his childhood.

"I was a new hire back then, Ma. I didn't really know a whole lot about being apart of a crew on a ship. He was just saving me and looking out for the new hires of the crew." Clark said as he looked at the screen and knew what it was about to show. The Oil Rig rescue and soon the Scout Ship.

The voice of Captain Haroldson came over the intercom of the ship. "Gentleman, secure the deck! We just got a distress call from a Rig due west of us, secure the deck!" He ordered his men as he got a call from the US Coast Guard Helicopter response team.

"All civilian boats stand clear! The Sub-sea values failed and the Rig is about to explode." The pilot said to any and all civilians in the surrounding area.

"Roger, Coast Guard, what about the men left inside? Over." Asked Captain Haroldson asked as he and his crew watched from a safe distance.

"Forget'em. They're dead." Said the pilot as he made his way closer towards the Oil Rig and Clark stood close to the back of the doorway of the bridge of the ship as he decided to help those men left to die in a Oil Rig.

"That pilot should be reprimanded for saying something like that." Said Steve Rogers as he watched with anticipation and was worried about the Oil Rig workers left inside.

"Don't worry, Cap, I got them all out in time." Said Clark with a smile on his bearded face and remembered something important to ask Miss Foster. "Jane... I mean, Miss Foster, may I ask if you still have the same scars from when I saved you from the Kryptonian Service Drone?" He asked, curious if she's also from his previous timeline as well.

Jane Foster looked at the famous Kryptonian and nodded as she lifted up her shirt to show Superman her waist, where two small scars were located at.

"Thank goodness, I was worried if this new timeline would be different from the one I know of." Said Clark as adjusted his cushion for his seat and quickly sat back down.

"Greenhorn, fetch me my binoculars. Greenhorn!" Said Captain Haroldson asked he turned to look for newest hire on his ship.

When the Captain turned around he didn't see Clark there at all and told some of his men to look for the man, worried if he fell overboard and they all didn't hear it.

-Bright Artic Oil Rig-

As the waves crashed against the thick support beams that made up the feet of the Oil Rig, a shirtless man is seen clutching to the side of the one of the feet as an explosion happens right above him and fell right on top of him.

The scene then shifts to the Rig Workers trapped in a break room with the last of the Oxygen Tanks they had as the door that led out into the hallway was squeezed like it was made out of paper and was tossed to the side to reveal the shirtless and on fire, Clark Kent as he looked at the men to get a headcount of the survivors. One of them had a fire extinguisher and fired it at the stanger who was on fire and Clark gave him a thumbs up as thanks and told them come with him if they want to live.

The Coast Guard Helicopter response team circled the Rig in search for any more survivors and saw the shirtless Clark leading the survivors to the Helipad and watched as the group waved at them to rescue them. The Helicopter lands as Clark tells the men to get in and get to safety. When they all are aboard the helicopter and Clark is the last one on the pad he turns and sees the tower above the Helipad in the process of collapsing.

"Get that last guy loaded! We have got to go!" Yelled the pilot as the men who Clark rescued all yelled for him to jump in so they could get to safety, Clark, however had another idea as he put himself between the metal of the Helipad and Tower, the tower actually stopped for mere moments, just enough time for the helicopter to get away.

Clark yells as this Oil Rig is by far one of the heaviest things he's ever had lift up while on Earth and the metal he was standing on started to bend down while he stayed strong in his stature, the camera panning down towards his abs and overall very muscular body. A sight a caused a few women in the audience (Diana of Themyscira, Jessica Jones, Darcy Lewis, Queen Maxima of Almerac, Faora-Hu-Ul, Anissa (Viltrumite Female that accidentally got teleported into this new timeline), Jean Grey, Anna Marie aka Rogue, Hela Odinsdóttir, Lady Sif, Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk and Natasha Romanoff herself.) to blush a deep red as they only imagined what the bottom half of him looked like and suddenly became rather jealous of Natasha Romanoff, whose the only other woman to see his impressive package down below. The only other woman to experience that was Anna Marie aka Rogue in the distant future of this world (early 2014) and the previous timeline, munis of course Trish Walker who got to see 'it' hours before General Dru-Zod's speech to Earth in the previous timeline.

The Rig toppled over Clark as the oil ignited in the tower and caused a massive explosion that sent Clark falling down into the icy waters below. In his unconscious state, Clark, began to remember little bits about his childhood in Smallville, Kansas.

The sound of a teacher asking when Kansas first became a territory was heard as Clark drifted further down the ocean away from the Rig's debris and oil that was causing harm to the ocean.

{"Can anyone tell me when Kansas first became a territory?" Asked Clark's 3rd grade teacher who looked at the boy as he looked around the classroom in a terrified manner.}

{"Clark? I asked who first settled Kansas?" Asked Miss Barnes (no relation to Bucky Barnes) as she finally noticed the scared boy's eyes looking everywhere. "Are you alright, Clark?"}

{Clark ran out of the classroom and started to see into everything and sealed himself inside of the Smallville Janitor's closet and was told by his teacher that she had called his mother. That seemed to anger him as his eyes glowed red and shot a blast of heat at the metal doorknob, heating it up and caused the teacher to pull her hand back as she now had a hurt hand just as Martha seemed to appear out of nowhere after she got the call.}

Clark looked at his mother with a question that she answered without him asking. "Your father and I had a feeling that morning that you would start to develop more powers as the previous day you just got your lazer eyes. Thankfully we helped you get it under control after a few hours." Martha said as she gave her son a pat on the cheek as they continued to watch their past.

{"Clark, honey, it's mom. Can you open the door?" A younger Martha asked her son as she had a feeling that he was hearing the other kids talking about him as if he were a freak of nature. "How can I help you if you won't let me in?" Asked Martha to her young son.}

{"The world's too big, mom." The young Clark said to mother as he saw through into her skeleton and vital organs, the image surly would haunt him for the rest of his life.}

{"Then make it small. Just um... focus on my voice. Pretend it's an island out in the ocean. Can you see it?" Asked Martha as she got a muffled yes from Clark. "Then swim towards it, honey." And with that Clark finally focused on what he wanted to see and opened the door to hug his mother.}

{"What's wrong with me mom?" He asked his mother who just responded with his name that echoed as he woke up while he drifted further down the ocean.}

Clark woke up to see a mother blue whale and her calf, reminding him of home and his intertwined fate with Natasha Romanoff, a girl he's been trying to find for years but failed at every turn he made to find anything close about her disappearance.

He swam ashore to Canadian soil as a song called Seasons started to play in the background as Clark quietly ran past a house with clothes hanging on a string outside to dry and found some warm clothes to put on as he looked around to see if anyone was watching so he could remove his underwear to wring it out as it was soaked with sea water. The audience then got a rather interesting look at his package down below as some people thankfully couldn't see anything, that being a majority of the audiance who wasn't attracted to the Last Son of Krypton. The women who were attracted to him however, saw cock that was at least 8 inches when flaccid and a pair of hanging balls that looked very full.

"Uhm........." Clark said as he was silently thanking the One Above All and The Watcher for making almost everyone not be able to see his hanging cock and balls. But he did, however, get a load of lustful looks from a few women in the audience that were sitting next to him.

"This just got a lot more interesting...." Mumbled Jessica Jones as she found her unable to look away from her best friend's flaccid cock and big balls. Her hand subconsciously going up Clark's covered left leg as Natasha did same and their hands met at the object of their desire, his clothed cock that was hardening from underneath his Kryptonian Skinsuit.

The women who liked Superman all turned away from the screen as time around them was paused and they all saw Jessica Jones, Natasha Romanoff and Clark Kent get sent into a different section of the theater by the One Above All, who didn't want to have explain what happened to the 3 heroes.

-Mini Timeskip: 4 Hours Later-

Clark, Natasha and Jessica all three were teleported back to their seats with messy hair and loose clothing (Jessica's shirt and pants while Natasha's Black Widow suit was unzipped to reveal a good amount of her cleavage), Clark had hickeys on his exposed neck and red lipstick on his face with a deep red blush on his facial features and it seemed like no time had passed for everyone else with the exception of the women who liked Clark.

"So..... how was he?" Asked Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman who made little stick legs with her index and middle and made them walk up Natasha's curvy thigh and up to her zipper.

"Amazing." Was all she got as from the heavy breathing blonde Widow as she zipped up her friend's suit as time resumed for everyone just as James quickly snapped his fingers to fix the looks of the 3 lovebirds.

Clark looked down at himself and sighed, knowing his size was both a blessing and a curse at the same time as he very quickly got dressed in the warm winter clothes he stole and walked over to where a local bus route was for the school in the Canadian town he was in and looked at the bus as it passed him, remembering the day his fate would forever be intertwined with Natasha Romanoff's.

{A young teenage Clark sat in a Smallville bus that was heading back the school following a class trip to the next states National Park where Clark found a chunk of unknown metal and put it in his satchel bag he had. He sat across from Lana Lang and in front of Pete Ross, a chubby kid around his age who just wouldn't stop bugging Clark about seeing the Smallville Football Team's epic loss just a day ago.}

{"Hey, Asswipe, you see the game last night?" Pete said rather harshly to Clark as he bullied Clark since he started going to school.}

{"Leave him alone, Pete." Said Lana as she and Clark were friends since he started going to school. She gave Clark a sympathetic look, almost apologizing for Pete's names he always called Clark.}

{"Oh what you his girlfriend? I want to hear what he has to say. Come on, Dicksplash." Pete Ross said as one of the older tires on the bus finally gave way and popped over a bridge, missing a car and going into the river.}

{All but Clark was fine and he quickly took it upon himself to save his friends and bully as he went to the exit door to the back of the sinking bus and opened the door with his enhanced strength, causing tons of more river water to fill the bus. The teens all started to scream and cry as they all thought they were about to die as the water completely submerged the bus. A few minutes go by as the bus is pushed up by something, when all of the water is out of it and the students all slowly emerge from their somewhat unconscious state, it's Lana Lang who turns to see Clark outside of the bus to push it onto land and noticed that Pete Ross wasn't in the bus as Clark saw her eyes looking all over for Pete and dove back into the water to save his bully from drowning.}

{"My son was there. He was in the bus. He saw what Clark did." Mrs. Ross said to Jonathan Kent, a intimidating looking man who seemed like he knew his way around a farm or ranch.}

{"I know he did. I'm- I'm sure what he thought he saw was..." Jonathan Kent said to Pete's Mom as his wife, Martha Kent came into the living room with some fresh baked cookies as he poured Mrs. Ross some coffee.}

{"Was an act of God, Jonathan. This was providence." Said the devote Christian woman, who seemed like she was truly believing that Clark was an Angel sent from Heaven.}

{"Well, I think you're blowing it a little out of proportion." Said Martha as she set down a plate for both mother and son to have some cookies.}

{"No, I'm not. Lana saw it too. And the Fordham boy. And this isn't the first time Clark's done something like this." Mrs. Ross told Martha as Jonathan went to look at Clark's makeshift swing he made for his son and noticed he wasn't there when he told his son to stay put. He set down the coffee pot back in the coffee maker, grabbed his coat and found Clark on the far side of the Kent Farm where the grain silo was located at with his old rundown blue pickup truck.}

{"I just wanted to help." Said the young teenage Clark as he looked at his human father and gripped the tailgate of the blue pickup hard enough to leave his hand marks in the metal.}

{"I know you did, but we talked about this right? Right? You have.... Clark, you have to keep this side of yourself a secret." Said Jonathan Kent as he looked at son and waited for him to answer him.}

{What was I supposed to do? Just let them die?" Clark asked his father as he looked at the ground.}

{"Maybe. There's more at stake here than just our lives or the lives of those around us, Clark. When... When the world finds out what you can do it's gonna change everything. Our- Our beliefs on what it means to be Human. Everything. You saw how Pete's mom reacted, right?" Jonathan told his son, trying to get him to understand the gravity of the situation that Clark put himself in.}

{"Is she right though? Did God do this to me? Tell me." Said Clark as he watched his father's face turn from anger to one of concern about something he didn't know.}

{Jonathan then took his son over to their barn where his son's Infant Ship was located underneath the barn in a seller that Jonathan's grandfather built as Kansas is located within Tornado Alley and opened the old seller to show his son what they found him in and to tell him the truth.}

{"We found you in this. We were sure the government was going to show up at our doorstep, but... no one ever came." Jonathan said to his son as he touched the alien metal and wiring that made up the Infant Ship.}

{Jonathan then led Clark over to where a small desk is that had some maps of the stars and different pictures of meteorites zipping across the night sky and just many more different things with Space and found the small box with an odd looking object inside and gave it to Clark to hold. "This was in the chamber with you. I took it to a metallurgist at Kansas State. And he said that whatever it was made from didn't... didn't even exist on the periodic table. It's another way of saying it's not from this world, Clark. And neither are you. You're the answer, son. You're the answer to 'Are we alone in the Universe?" Said Jonathan to Clark, who was still processing the fact that he's an Alien, not Human.}

{Clark looked at the odd symbol on the weird looking pendant like object and looked back at his human father. "I don't wanna be."}

{"And I don't blame you, son. It'd be a huge burden for anyone to bear. But you're not just anyone, Clark, and I have to believe that you were... that  you were sent here for a reason. All these changes that you're going through, one day-" Jonathan said as he walked over to Clark and put his hand on his son's shoulder. "One day you're gonna think of them as a blessing, and when that day comes, you're gonna have to make a choice. A choice of whether to stand proud in front of the Human Race or not. " Said the older Kent to his son.}

{"Can't I just go back to being your son?" Asked the scared young teen and was pulled into a hug.}

{Jonathan told his son that he was his son with a breaking voice as he was on the verge of crying. "You are my son. But somewhere out there you have another father too, who gave you another name.  And he sent you here for a reason. And even if it takes you the rest of your life, you owe it to yourself to find out what that reason is."}

{Jonathan and Martha Kent both decided that it would be a good thing for Clark to go to Ohio, where Martha's sister lives to stay while the recent events calm down and he takes a 4 month 'vacation' and to possibly make some new friends. What neither Clark or his parents would ever know is that this was the time that would intertwine his fate with Natalia Alianovna Romanova aka Natasha Romanoff forever!}

"Oh, was wondering when this happened." Natasha said as she looked at the two surviving Kents watched the new universe's history playing out and looked at her son who seemed to be a bit sad, almost lonely in his seat next to his mother.

"Is everything alright, James?" Asked Natasha in a quiet tone akin to that of mother speaking to her 4 year old child, in this instance it's more like a mother and her thousand+ year old son.

"I.... miss my siblings. They all died by Darkseid's hands as the last method to turn dad against the heroes of Earth in the original timeline. Want to hear their names?" Asked James to his mother as he took off his Stetson hat and placed it in her lap to see what was embroidered on the inside of said hat was a name. Taya Romanoff.

"Most of what have on is from my siblings, that hat is my sister's hat, Taya Romanoff, she was like you in many ways then you wished she wasn't. She had the natural skills and was a hell of a shot with a high powered rifle." He said to his mother who listened with natural curiosity about her massive family from the future.

As both mother and son spoke, the new audience members were a bit confused as to why both Clark and Natasha's fates were intertwined at such a young age, mainly the older sister of Thanos, Terraxia and most of the people who Clark considers allies and friends.

{-One Week Later: 1995, Ohio-}

{Clark stayed with his aunt, Mary Clark, the last name of his aunt being the same as his mother's before she and his dad got married. Clark sighed as he took off his backpack as his aunt Mary allowed him to go on hiking trips with her and today was one of those days where he wanted to stay home and read some books about Captain Steve Rogers, Peggy Carter and Bucky Barnes as well as the Howling Commandos from WW2.}

{Clark often visited the playground that was in the middle of the suburbs where he was staying at, there he often would see a girl a little bit younger than him by 4 years as he was as he was 14 years old by '95. She had dyed hair that was a mix of blue and red, the red being her natural hair color. As Clark would most often read various books about alien life and books about history, he would often see a young blonde girl following the young Natasha Romanoff.}

{Clark eventually introduced himself to the two sisters who he learned their names: Natasha Romanoff and Yelena Belova. He would often talk to Natasha, who would rest her head on either his shoulders or legs as he and her spoke about growing up and helping people. For Clark it was being a repoter for a big news company and for Natasha is was being the greatest spy the would as ever known and save little girls like her sister from being apart of the Red Room as she revealed to him about her mission here in the US.}

"Wait..... this never happened in the previous timeline...." Clark said as he clutched his head as he could see his own memories being rewritten by viewing his lilife.

James gave his father a sad smile as he knew that his own memories would be fully rewritten by the end of this and wished that the One Above All would make the rewriting of memories instantaneous and not painful.

"Well..... at least young Natasha was comfortable enough with you, Kal, that she revealed that information about herself and her family." Jor-El said to his son, who was in pain from the memories being rewritten.

{Clark then gave her a look that said he already knew as he spoke to her. "I know, Natasha..." He told her as he saw the complete shock on her face as she then got all defensive about it and started to question him if he was a SHEILD agent.}

{"Are you a SHEILD Agent, Clark?" Asked Natasha as she gave her friend one chance to explain the truth or she would be forced to kill the boy she grew to care for and developed a crush on.}

{"I.... Natasha, I am not Human. I am an alien from a different world. And before you ask what world, I do not know, I was sent here as a baby and was adopted by my parents here on Earth. All I have from my home is this pendant and the very ship I arrived in." Clark explained to Natasha, who could see in his eyes that there wasn't a shadow of a doubt that what her friend was saying was in fact true.}

{"Prove it. Prove to me that you are an alien, Clark." Said the young teenage Natasha to her friend.}

{Clark stepped a few feet away from as he shot out twin crimson beams of heat from his eyes towards a metal pipe that Natasha was playing with earlier as a baton or sword and melted the pipe to molten hot metal that slowly started to work it's way into a nearby Ant Hill. Clark also demonstrated his enhancements strength by effortlessly lifting Natasha up by her leg as he asked her to do a ballerina move for him and lifted her up her foot in the air, making Natasha believe him and almost immediately started to pester him with multiple questions about where he's from and who sent him here. All of which would be answered when they both are adults.}

-Cassidy's Pub: Canada-

Clark found a job at a local pub to blend in and started to hear rumors from some Canadian Military members about SHEILD and the US Army discovering an 'Anomalous Object' buried deep in the ice over at Ellesmere Island. While he was working at Cassidy's Pub he found that one truck driver named Ludlow was constantly trying to sexually harass his co-worker, a young woman named Crissy.

"Back off, Ludlow." Crissy said to the clearly drunk 18 wheeler driver and his buddies who also harassed some of the other female staff that usually work or used to work there.

"Come on, Crissy~" Said the drunk man who slapped the young woman's round rear end and got the attention of the bus-boy for the Pub, Clark Joseph Kent.

Now, Clark was raised right by his father and mother to never and I mean never lay his hands on a woman or child as he knew self control when it came to his anger towards sexual assault or harassment towards women he considers friends.

"Come on, man, leave her alone." Clark said as he put his large hand on Ludlow's shoulder and made a gesture for his friend to get behind him.

"Or what, tough guy?" Said the irritated Ludlow to the new guy at Cassidy's Pub and got up to attempt to push the more muscular man away and instead felt like he just pushed against a brick wall. The drunk attempted to grab Crissy's arm and pull her towards him for a drunken kiss and was grabbed by the scruff of his shirt and thrown out of a window instead of one of the doors.

"I'll fix it before you fire me, sir." Said Clark to his now surly former boss as he went outside to make sure the drunk truck driver never lays a hand on any woman like that again and broke the man's hand and moved fast around his truck as he started to throw the logs into the 18 wheeler, making it seem like it thrown around by a tornado.

Some of the audience cheered for the Last Son of Krypton's act of kindness by saving his friend from being sexually assaulted by a drunk 18 wheel driver.

"A bit much, don't ya think?" Asked one of the Council members of the Jedi Order named Mace Windu, who looked at lot like Director Nicholas Fury of SHEILD, most of the heroes of Earth in the Sacred Timeline all silently agreed that both men looked alike.

"If your Padawan was treated like this, would you react any differently, Mace?" Asked Lord Lui Kang to the Jedi Order's best duelist.

"I still don't see how any of this has anything to do with Jedi Order or any of the other people here except your people, Lord Lui Kang." Said Mace Windu to the former Titan of Time.

"Enough. Now is not the time to argue amongst ourselves. This is the influence of the Infinity Children." Clark told them audience as he saw multiple people attempt to fight and bicker back and forth as he used his voice to make everyone look at him.

"What do you mean by Infinity Children, Clark?" Asked Steve Rogers along with a majority of the audiance who weren't familiar with the Infinity Stones.

Clark sighed as he looked at Cap and began to explain what he learned while being Darkseid's weapon against the heroes of the Sacred Timeline's first iteration of this universe. "While I was under control by Darkseid, I started to read up on the Infinity Stones or as the Apokolipitans knew them as the Infinity Children, the literal living consciousness' of the Stones. They took on the appearance of children to blend in with most species and are actively seeking a method to stopping anyone or anything from using their powers again." Said the Last Son of Krypton to his friends and allies of Earth and beyond.

"Now could we please get back to watching our timeline." Clark asked as he got nothing in response as everyone was in deep thought and he pressed play on the film of his universe.

Clark then stayed a few hours to help fix the window and as soon as he was done, he started to walk along the road that led to the Artic Cargo Company and soon found himself being shipped out to Ellesmere Island where he would eventually meet Jane Foster and her very busty and loveable assistant Darcy Lewis and would activate an Ancient Kryptonian Scout Ship that belonged to his House.

Clark waited for the SHEILD helicopter to land and out stepped Thor's girlfriend, Jane Foster and her assistant, Darcy Lewis. He helped them out of the helicopter and grabbed their bags and was told by Jane that they were heavy to which he just shrugged his broad shoulders and picked them up with ease and brought them to meet the people who were in charge of this operation and take the bags to their room that was the only one left available for the Astrophysicist and her assistant.

-Jane Foster's Point of View-

Jane was talking to her friend and assistant Darcy about the different possibilities of what was down in the ice as Darcy fixed her camera into working condition as one month prior she and Jane went on a Africa Safari and Darcy broke her camera trying to get a picture of baby elephant.

"It's alive!" Exclaimed Darcy with happiness at her rather expensive camera working again. "Jane, want to get some cool pictures while we're here?" Asked Darcy to her friend and boss.

Jane cracked her neck side to side as she agreed with her friend's request and both got dressed in clothes that were suitable for below freezing temperatures and they both went out into the freezing Canadian wilderness that was Ellesmere Island. Darcy started off by taking a picture of the excavation site that was up on the higher part of the ice shelf where the mysterious object was located.

Once Darcy took the photo she and Jane decided to inspect it to try and get a good look at SHEILD's excavation equipment that was up there and they were shocked to see one of the workers walking towards the edge of the island in a simple white long-sleeved shirt, blue jeans and work boots.

-No One's Point Of View-

As the young Kent ventured towards the icey cliff, he got the feeling that he was being followed and watched as he rounded a corner and went along the edge till his necklace/pendant started to be pulled in a straight line where he had a feeling that this was where the mysterious object was at and used his heat vision to melt a hole straight through the ice.

He eventually broke through to the air pocket where the mysterious object was at and discovered that it was a ship, a massive ship that his pendant seemed to be drawn to and found a doorway that opened up for him to enter.

Clark entered the doorway and found that it was actually a maintenance hatch with a ladder leading up and soon found himself in a hallway of sorts and saw a small pedestal rise from the floor and was completely shocked to see that his pendant somehow was able to fit within it.

Clark pulled at the leather strap that held the pendant around his neck and watched as the pendant shot out of his hand and into the pedestal. He then heard a noise that sounded like a wasp getting ready to strike and turned to see a Kryptonian Service Drone that launched a whip made of Liquid Geo that was somehow strong enough to make him bleed from an newly opened wound on his right bicep.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait. You mean to tell me that the only thing that can kill you is a god damn drone?" Said Fury to Clark as he watched as the Man of Steel rubbed his left bicep.

"I never said that I knew what material it was made out of, Fury. I didn't really know that it could harm me. I've gone my entire life without knowing what pain felt like. These events showed the whole world that even a super-powered god like person can indeed bleed." Clark said as he remembered what Batman said to him in his timeline.

"Tell me.... do you bleed? You will..." Clark then subconsciously rubbed his chest where he still felt Doomsday's bone like claw that pierced his heart.

Steve looked over at Clark and wanted to ask why he was doing that but decided not to and figured that these events would be told in due time.

Clark hissed in pain as it was completely unfamiliar to him and threw off the whip that was wrapped around his forearm and pressed the pendant into the pedestal fully and it made the Drone finally register Clark as Kryptonian.

As the Drone floated away and up into a recharging station for it, Clark heard a faint voice call out to him as he turned and swore he saw a man walking away as he called out after him. "Hello?" Clark said as his own voice echoed throughout the empty halls of the ship.

Jane Foster and Darcy Lewis both enter from a different entry way that just so happened to be a hole big enough for someone to squeeze into as they both looked around at the advanced technology that made up the hallway of the ship.

Clark soon found himself in the cockpit of the ship and began to wonder just how long something like this has gone completely undiscovered by Mankind till now. His thoughts were cut short after he spotted the mysterious figure again and followed it down a hallway that led to some Cryogenic Pods.

Jane and Darcy both looked at the drone as it was hovering a few feet from them as Darcy took out her camera and started to snap some pictures without the flash on at first then turned it on.

Clark looked at each pod as he wiped off some of the centuries old dust off of one and turned to see one fully encased in a very thick layer of ice like substance that most of the different species of the Galaxy use for Cryo Pods. He looked in it and saw a young girl who wore a white outfit with a S symbol on her chest.

Jane was then hit by the whip of the drone as she pushed Darcy out of the way of the whip as she moaned in pain from both colliding with the wall and getting smacked away very hard.

C lark's inner monolog about who this young girl is was cut short as he could hear Jane in distress and rushed to where both women were at as he grabbed the drone and with surprisingly little effort crushed it as if it were made out of paper.

After a quick assessment of whether the drone was a threat or not, Clark turned to look at both women as Darcy took out her Tazer and pointed it at the stanger with immense strength. He raised both hands up to show that he wasn't a threat to them and saw that Jane was injured and it seemed very bad.

"Stay back, Beefcake, or I will shoot you with this." Darcy said while she gently shook her Tazer in her hands to prove her point.

"Miss Lewis is it?" Clark asked and got a nod of her head to confirm that she indeed was Thor's girlfriend's assistant. "Your friend, Miss Foster, is injured and I can help."

Darcy looked back at Jane and then at the beefcake of a man and stepped to the side to allow him to save Jane. Clark knelt down and told Miss Foster that he needs her to raise up her shirt for him to get a better look at the injury.

Clark used his X-Ray Vision to get a better look at the injury and told Miss Foster that she was hemorrhaging internally and that if he didn't stop the bleeding then she would die.

"H-how can-?" Jane asked with her face getting a bit more pale from the blood loss.

Thor and Erik Selvig both shouted at the onscreen Clark to save her instead of making this more dramatic and instantly got a very mean glare from Natasha that made them both pipe down and watch the film. The Avengers and their friends all thought one thing 'Don't make Natasha mad when speaking about Clark' and let the film continue.

"I can do things that other people can't. Now hold my hand, this is going to hurt a lot." Clark said as his eyes glowed crimson red and gently cauterized Jane's wound and instantly used his enhanced speed to take the two ladies back to their room in the bottom camp where the people from SHEILD, the US Government and Artic Cargo were asleep but not for long as the seismic graph in one of the SHEILD tech's rooms started to read a massive shift from where the mysterious object was located at.

The Kryptonian Scout Ship destroyed the mining equipment that was on top of the ice shelf and slowly emerged, shocking everyone who saw it as some of the younger men started to freak out, thinking that another Incident was going to happen as that's what the general public labeled the Battle for New York in 2012. What everyone didn't know was that the second Clark powered on the Scout Ship, it sent out a distress call out among the stars and a certain Kryptonian General heard it alongside multiple other beings out amongst the universe. The ship then shot off like a bullet in a random direction and activated some sort of advanced cloaking technology and it disappeared from any type of radar system on Earth.

Natasha Romanoff's 3rd Person Point of View-

Little Island Between Washington DC & Virginia: SHEILD Triskelion Mere Hours Following The Kryptonian Scout Ship's Takeoff-

Natasha looked down at her very advanced Stark Industries phone that funnily enough had her Widow Hourglass on the case. She remembered when Tony gifted the Avengers the prototype phones and were similar to a modern Samsung or IPhone, she shook her head and looked at an image that she found when sent on a mission to Ohio to retrieve something for Fury and found that her former childhood home was still intact and asked the homeowner if they still had a picture of a friend.

Natasha let her normally cold look she had on her face light up when she looked at her choice of Screensaver and the invisible camera panned around to show that it was an image of both her and Clark's very first and sadly final kiss to each other before she went back to Ohio and soon fled the country to Cuba. A good memory at the beginning of her torment at the Red Room.

She exited the elevator that led to Director Fury's office and could hear her boss cursing up a storm following the debrief from the SHEILD Agents that were present at Ellesmere Island and sent them out of the room as he told his assistant, Maria Hill, to bring Natasha into the office as he looked outside to the wide lake as Natasha entered the office and sat down in the chair that was on the other side of Fury's desk and was handed a tablet with holographic capabilities and was told a summary of events by Fury, who read a email sent from Jane Foster and Darcy Lewis about what they encountered while in the mysterious ship and was shown a video of the Ship's reveal and take off.

Natasha let out a small smile while Fury was reading off the Email as did Maria, as both women were just imagining how much of an opportunity this was for some blackmail for Fury should he ever send either of them on some wild goose chase across the globe and sadly for Natasha it was indeed her current mission to find this enhanced individual and evaluate whether or not he was a threat to the world, SHEILD or The Avengers.

Fury also wanted Natasha to see about some other enhanced individuals like a seemingly Immortal woman who's been sighted all the way back to the First World War, the Gotham Bat aka The Batman, a very fast individual who lives in Central City, Oliver Queen of Star City and many more that he's had his eye on for a new Initiative. The Justice League Initiative with Kent Nelson and Carter Hall as two members of a much older superhero team that Fury and Amanda Waller made when they were both young called the Justice Society.

"And why me? Why not Clint or Rogers or hell even Stark would all be better candidates for this than me." Natasha told Fury as she saw him turn around and look at her with his only good eye.

"Because with Coulson dead and Maria as my new right hand, I need someone I can trust on this and you, Agent Romanoff, are the best candidate for this mission. And besides.... You'll find this mission a more relaxing one as you won't be in the line of fire for once." Fury said with a grin and gave Natasha her personal tablet with all the info she needs for her fairly long mission that could take a few months to a year at best to complete as he knew that Natasha needed a break from the more hectic ones and it gave her a opportunity to take some time off to visit the Bartons.

Natasha looked at each file for a moment before she left the office of SHEILD's Director and started her journey by making a visit to Jane Foster and Darcy Lewis about their experience on the mysterious alien ship.

"Hmm. This feels a bit different than from what I remember..." Fury said as he rubbed his temples from the growing headache he started to develop.

Many other decently strong willed people in the audience also felt a massive headache stating to form as their own memories being rewritten on the spot as James used his powers to soothe their pain and his own parents.

-Greenland: A Few Minutes Later-

"Recursive diagnostics complete. Guiding presence authenticated. All systems operational." Said the Scout Ship's ancient A.I. to the Last Son of Krypton.

Clark turned and looked around the room and noticed that the command chair rose up into the ceiling of the bridge of the ship and saw a muscular man standing behind the chair in the doorway looking at him.

"To see you standing there grown into an adult... If only Lara could have witnessed this." The older man said with a calm and collective voice that eased Clark's nerves for some odd reason.

"Who are you?" Clark asked the older man standing before him and watched as he started to walk around the room till they were both on the opposite side from where they started.

"I am your father, Kal." Jor said to his adult son as he walked around the command bridge of this ancient and old Scout Ship.

Clark's eyes widened as he looked at his now revealed father and could see some similarities between himself and his father.

"Or at least a shadow of him. His Consciousness. My name was Jor-El." Jor said as he stopped at the pressurized glass window that let sunlight into the bridge.

"And Kal? That's  my name." Clark said with some happiness upon hearing his birth name for the first time.

"Kal-El. It is." Jor said with pride in his voice as he watched his son's facial features turn from excitement to calm and collective much like himself as he asked his father questions he had.

"I have so many questions. Why did you send me here? Where do I come from and who is that young girl in the ice back by the cryo pods?" Clark asked Jor-El as he slowly walked over to his father.

"You come from Krypton. A world with a much harsher environment than Earth's." Jor-El said to his son as he showed him a Liquid Geo model of the history of Krypton. "Long ago, in an era of expansion, our race spread out amongst the stars seeking new worlds to settle upon. This Scout Ship was one of thousands launched into the void. We built outposts on other planets, using great machines to reshape environments to our needs."

When Jor said that the many heroes and villains of Earth all visibly shivered from the sound that the World Engine made, a reminder of the terraforming device's destructive design.

"For 100,000 Years our civilization flourished, accomplishing wonders." Jor said as the number rang throughout the people of Earth's heads. Many of the heroes and members of the different organizations on Earth were wondering if that was how old Asgardians were as well along with most of the other species of the Universe.

"What happened?" Asked Clark as he was a bit confused by all of this new information about his people's vast Empire that controlled thousands of worlds.

"Artificial population control was established. The outposts and space exploration were abandoned. We exhausted our natural resources. As a result, our Planet's core became unstable. Eventually, our military leader, General Dru-Zod attempted a coup, but by then it was already too late. Your mother and I foresaw the coming calamity and we took certain steps to ensure your survival." Jor said as they walked over to where the Genesis Chamber was located.

"This is a Genesis Chamber. All Kryptonians were conceived in chambers such as this. Every child was designed with a pre-determined role in our society... as a Worker, a Warrior, a Leader and so on. Your mother and I believed that Krypton lost something precious. The element of choice, of chance. What if a child dreamed of becoming something other than what society had intended for him or her? What if a child aspired for greater. You were the embodiment of that belief, Kal. Krypton's first natural birth in centuries. That's why we risked so much to save you." Said Jor-El to Clark as he watched as his son processed the info about him being the first and last natural birth in centuries for a Civilization.

When Jor-El said that about the element of choice, of chance, it stuck with the people of Earth and many other worlds. None more so than the Avengers themselves as most of the team felt like their childhoods were predestined by something or someone.

"Who's the young girl in the pod, dad?" Clark asked his father as they walked out of the Genesis Chamber and towards the suit chambers and stopped just were the frozen pod was.

"She is your cousin, Kal, her name is Kara-Zor-El, daughter of my brother Zor-El and your uncle. I thought her to be lost before you were born. Thankfully that is not the case. The process of awakening has already begun. I would recommend transporting her and some of the Service Drones to your home here on Earth so she gets used to the people's of Earth and her own powers." Jor said as they continued to walk after stopping.

"Why didn't you come with me?" Asked Clark to Jor as they neared the suit chambers.

"We couldn't, Kal. No matter how much we wanted to. No matter how much we loved you. Your mother, Lara and I, were a product of the failures of our world as much as Zod was, tied to it's fate." Jor said as Clark then responded with 'So I'm alone'.

"No. You're as much a child of Earth now as are of Krypton. You can embody the best of both worlds. A dream your mother and I dedicated our lives to preserving. " Responded Jor as the chamber with the suit that was custom made for him opened up before the A.I. Jor and Clark. "The people of Earth are different from us, it's true. But, ultimately, I believe that's a good thing. They won't necessarily make the same mistakes we did. Not if you guide them, Kal. Not if you give them Hope." Jor said as he parted his robes to reveal the Symbol of the House of El. "That's what this symbol means. The Symbol of the House of El means Hope. Embodied within that Hope is the fundamental belief in the potential of every person to be a force for good. That's what you can bring them." Jor said as Clark turned his head to look at the Skinsuit as he remembered his childhood dream with he shared with Natasha, of helping people no matter who they are.

Most of the audience were saddened by the fact that Clark was the Last Son of Krypton but were also happy for him as he had at least one family member who survived the destruction of Krypton.

Some heroes from Earth felt inspired by the words said by Jor of the House of El. That a symbol embodies the very ideals that some of them fought to protect while the villains of the universe felt an uneasy feeling of dread when they saw the symbol of Hope, almost like a warning of something awful tied to the symbol.

However, Fury and most of the people who work for the government were not so happy that an alien had the most advanced technological ship they had ever seen and a very advanced method of creating soldiers as well as an A.I. that was based on the Kryptonian Empire's foremost Scientist from the Thinkers Guild. It pissed off Amanda Waller most of all at the thought of the Avengers or future Justice League with access to this advanced technology instead of in her hands where she could surely make every hero and villain into her personal hit squad for America and her allies.

When the military members and unfortunately most of if not all of the people of Earth present in the theater heard the words 'guide them'... they all immediately thought that it was the superiority of an old alien species looking down on Humanity and in some way it was from Jor's perspective but also as a father, he wanted his son to help guide the peoples of Earthrealm not make the same exact mistakes that the Kryptonian Empire did by using their Planet's core as a power source.

It was Natasha who spoke up as she turned to look at the teenager who was getting nice and comfy with Peter as she found his presence to be calming. "And I see that my маленький паук (little spider) is making some close friends. A bit too close for my liking." She said with narrowing eyes towards Kara-Zor-El's head that was on Peter's shoulder.

"Nat.... he's not our son, he's May Parker's 'son' and if anyone wishes to punish him then surely it should be his own Aunt. And from what my parents have said it is encouraged to have diversity in Kryptonian Bloodlines. Hell.... for all we know if these two ever have children when this all said and done then there's a chance that they might become even stronger than me." Said Clark as he gently placed his large hand on Natasha's shoulder. "And besides.... I think that Peter will eventually have his own group of girlfriends." He responded quietly to Natasha as he could see the hidden jealousy of Wanda Maximoff, Princess Shuri of Wakanda, Laura Kinney, Michelle Jones and Felicia Hardy directed at his own cousin.

Clark sighed mentally as he knew just how protective Natasha is of Peter Parker aka her Spider Son and wanted to resolve this in a more private place without the watchful eyes of the audience. Clark then gently sat Natasha back down in her chair next to him as he wanted this chapter of his past to end a bit faster but knew that was only about halfway done. He then pressed play on the remote that was passed to him by his son.

The doorway that led outside of the Scout Ship opened to reveal Kal-El in his original House of El Skinsuit and the audience could hear Clark asking his father a question. "Why am I so different from them?"

"Earth's sun is younger and brighter than Krypton's was. Your cells have drunken it's radiation, strengthening your muscles, your skin, your senses. Earth's gravity is weaker, yet it's atmosphere is more nourishing. You've grown stronger here than I ever could have imagined. The only way to know how strong is to keep testing your limits."

As Clark got into a jumping stance he felt inspired by his father's words and leaped over the nearby mountain and did the same again and on the third leap, Clark flew for the first time and wasn't very good at it and ended up crashing into a mountain and made a small crater. Clark slowly picked himself up as he brushed off bits of debris from his shoulders and hair as he looked up at the sun and remembered what his father told them.

"You will give the people of Earth an ideal to strive towards. They'll race behind you. They will stumble. They will fall. But in time... they will join in the sun, Kal. In time, you will help them accomplish wonders." Jor-El's words rang throughout the theater and it moved some of the heroes and even some villains to do better and achieve a better tomorrow for their home and slowly started to not view Mutants as abominations of human evolution but rather as a full on member of the Human Race.

Uxas aka Darkseid, however, wasn't so keen on watching this about the sole surviving male Kryptonian in all of existence and the Multiverse. He just wanted to find the Anti-Life Equation and get rid of the Mad Titan and the Infinity Stones, viewing them as true obstacles in his way to getting rid of freewill throughout the Multiverse. He then felt a searing pain run through his shoulder where the former God of War, Ares, embedded his axe and left a massive scar as the monster's eyes went up to meet the King of the Monsters gaze.

Some backstory for Ares in this unique combined Timeline was that his axe was crafted by a dorsal plate off of Godzilla when he was a young God. The Titans of Earthrealm were once allies with the Greek Gods of Old and helped the King of Olympus seal away the Titans of Greek Mythology. Some of the radiation that lit up Ares' axe also flowed through Darkseid's blood as well. It made for an easy method for Lord Lui Kang and Kal-El to kill the tyrant alien warlord but only time would tell.

Kal looked up at the sun and closed his eyes as he got into a take-off stance as he recalled Natasha's last words to him when she left for Ohio and he never saw her again. 'Remember me, Smallville, remember that I will find you and remember this.' And still felt the feeling of her lips pressing against his as she was told to follow her 'parents'.

The force that propelled him off of the snowy Earth made little bits of debris float around him as he then shot off like a speeding bullet and started to zip around the globe, setting off SHEILD sensors like crazy and one of them was attached to satellite camera that got a very blurry image of the red and blue suit's backside with the red cape flapping behind the mysterious man and it sent the image to both SHEILD Director Nicholas Fury and Agent Romanoff respectively as the system was told to send it to whoever was following the leads on the mysterious alien.

Kal then went back to his Scout Ship and asked his father if was 100% positive that he wanted him to take Kara to where he grew up so she can get used to Earth and her own powers.

"Yes, Kal, that is what I want for her as it's ultimately best for her to hear from you that myself along with all of Krypton is gone. But she still has you, my son. You both are members of the House of El, you both will inspire the peoples of Earth to do better and achieve a better tomorrow." Jor told his son as he gifted him with a pure Liquid Geo version of Kelex that was able to form into a watch that looked like it was made from silver and some bronze and told him that Kelex was there to witness his birth and eventual departure from Krypton and told Kal to hurry on home to his human mother and tell her all that he's told him.

-Smallville, Kansas: September 27th, 2013-

-Kent Farm-

A sleek exotic sports car drove up to the Kent Family Farm and the person who drove said car down the long dirt road felt very uneasy about coming here after 21 Years since she last saw the Kents. Natasha immediately wanted to turn back and leave not really wanting to see for herself that the mysterious person she was looking for was actually her oldest and most trusted friend, Clark Joseph Kent.

Martha Kent saw the very nice and exotic sports car pull up into her driveway and saw a very gorgeous and beautiful woman walk out and up onto her front porch and the aging Kent was wondering just where she had seen this woman before and was soon to get her answer as her most recent dog, Dusty, started to bark when he heard the car door slam shut.

Martha opened the door to let Dusty see the stranger as he barked and barked and was told to be quiet by Martha to let the younger woman speak. "Mrs. Kent? You might not remember me but I'm Na-" Natasha started before she was cut off by the screen door opening and being brought into a almost death grip of a hug by the older woman.

"I had a feeling it was you, Big Girl. How have you been, Natasha?" Martha said as she let go of the girl her son had a crush on as a teenager.

"Well.... between saving the world from an alien invasion by Loki Odinson and work with SHEILD, I'd say I've been better. Where's Jonathan and Clark?" Asked Natasha to the eldest Kent and got a look of sadness in her eyes as Martha explained what happened to her late Husband and that Clark was currently traveling the globe in search for both Natasha and answers about what he is.

"Last I heard from him, he was working on a Crab Catcher vessel in the Artic Ocean near Canada." Martha said as she got out her Stark Tech Phone and showed Natasha the last message he sent which just so happened to be a few days ago when the mysterious ship took off from Ellesmere Island.

Just as both women sat down inside of the house a sonic boom was heard from outside as Clark entered the atmosphere above Kansas and landed near his childhood home. He rushed into the main house on the property and called out for his mother only to be scolded for breaking her front door's k nob, letting in the humid air into the cooled house.

"Clark Joseph Kent, I didn't raise you in a barn. You will be fixing my door knobs later on today." Martha said to her son as Natasha gave a fond smile at the scene playing out before her.

"Hello, Smallville, been a long time." Natasha said to Clark as she walked toward him and for both Kryptonian and Human, time itself seemed to stop as they both looked into each other's eyes.

"Natasha? How are you, how have you been and what happened after all these years?" Clark asked as he picked her up in a bear hug and twirled her around in a small circle as Martha cleared her throat to let her son know to let Natasha out of his rather protective grip.

Natasha on the other hand didn't mind the bear hug as her fellow Avengers constantly got bear hugs from Thor Odinson when he visited Earth and wondered if the man she still has subconscious feelings for is as muscular as the famed Son of Odin appeared to be and also liked how Clark's massive muscular frame complimented her athletic spy trained feminine frame.

Natasha then gave a detailed explanation about what happened to her over the years, how she was indoctrinated/taken by the Red Room in order to become a Widow spy for Russia and the program's director, Dreykov, who wanted to use the Widows to take over the world. How she had her fallopian tubes and ovaries removed by the Red Room as a method of further control over the Widows so they wouldn't hesitate to complete a mission if they ever have children.

When Natasha said that she looked up as she was wiping her eyes and saw Clark's eyes turn from their normal Cobalt Blue into a bright red as his anger for the Red Room grew more and more prevalent. He then stood up from his seat and walked over to Natasha and leaned down towards her head and gently pecked her forehead and rested his against hers as his eyes went back to normal.

"If I were there, Nat, then maybe I could've...." Clark said as he was cut off by Natasha being the one to pull him into a gentle and soft kiss as Martha only watched and waited.

"And if your were there then the Red Room would've used me as leverage against you and could have possibly made enhanced soldiers/widows for the Program. We both would have been used a breeding farm for our possible children." Natasha told Clark as she broke their kiss.

"Now then, with you two officially becoming a new couple.... Clark, why don't you tell Natasha what exactly happened either that mysterious ship." Martha said with a warm smile at her son's newfound relationship with Natasha.

"Right, sorry, Ma. Well, Natasha, I can imagine that the reason for why you are here is because of the ship and me, correct?" Asked Clark with red lipstick on his lips from their kiss.

Jessica Jones suddenly felt very jealous or jelly as Peter and Shuri called it, about how Onscreen Clark acted with Natasha and wanted to ask for a kiss by Clark but was too stubborn or too scared to ask him.

Clark looked at Jessica with amusement as he knew of her subconscious feelings towards him and decided to be the one to approach her as he learned towards her seat and gently pecked on the lips as Natasha let out a smile and said something along the lines of 'fucking finally.' or something similar to that effect.

Martha Kent gave the new couple a smile and told them that the food she was making for Clark and now Natasha would be done within the hour and told them to talk about that outside as she's sure as a civilian, she shouldn't hear classified information.

-Outside The Kent Farm at Smallville's Cemetery-

Clark and Natasha both walked over to his father's gravestone and Clark placed down some flowers that his mother told him to take and hung his head low in a silent prayer that his father would understand why he's brought Natasha here to talk.

Clark wore a simple blue flannel shirt and some blue jeans accompanied by some hiking boots and a worn out dull blue ball cap. Natasha wore a black and orange rimmed shirt accompanied by a light brown leather jacket, black slim fit jeans and a pair of black boots.

"How did Jonathan die, Clark?" Asked Natasha to her oldest and most trusted friend and recently turned sweetheart.

"Heart Attack. For all of my abilities and gifts I often forgot that he was just human. Same for you." Clark said as he stood up and turned to look at her as he gently took her hand and lightly pecked the back of it. "I don't know what I would do if I lost you, my mother or Earth." Clark said and left his question out for Natasha to absorb and give her thoughts on.

Natasha moved her hand up towards his chiseled jawline and made him look down at her. "Clark, your mother is a strong and stubborn person who wouldn't let anyone or anything harm her and I am the Black Widow, a SHEILD and Red Room trained spy with the know-how to defend and kill." Said Natasha as she gave her friend a swift kiss on the lips and pulled back as she told him to stop worrying about the past and focus on what was in front of him.

Clark mentally slapped himself for not doing anything in that moment but stay quiet and follow her. He decided to pick her up as if she were weightless and placed her on his broad shoulders and walked back to the Kent Farm where Martha was waiting on the porch and watched as the couple had their fun before supper was ready.

-Meanwhile At The Triskelion-

SHEILD Director Nicholas Fury looked at a video file that sent from Stark per Romanoff's request after she asked Tony to help her when she was in Canada looking for clues on her target. Needless to say that Fury was pissed that this individual went unnoticed for however many years by SHEILD was the understatement of the century. He had to unfortunately show the World Security Council the file as well as any and all information on this individual. A choice he would later regret in 2016.

Fury took notice of how the World Security Council's reactions were to the video file and the Alien Ship that he took as well as Darcy Lewis' report following the Scout Ship's departure. So far from what he could tell was that every one of them were thinking of ways to bring this person under SHEILD's watchful eye and make him into a weapon. Much like how the US Army wanted Dr. Banner to use as a weapon against America's enemies.

-Timeskip: One Month Later-

-Hell's Kitchen, New York City: November 30th, 2013-

A month following Natasha's evaluation of Clark and the promise of keeping his identity a secret from her superiors till the time was right, Clark decided that it time for him to find somewhere to live and told both Natasha and his mother when they all were sitting down eating the absolutely fantastic dinner that he wanted to find a job as a repoter in New York, a place where no one would ask questions if he went into a dangerous place and so that way if the Avengers catch onto the crime rates going down then he would introduce himself to them by his Kryptonian name, Kal-El, the Last Son of Krypton.

When Clark got to New York, he was accompanied by Natasha who was insistent that she be the one to find him an apartment but after a lengthy explanation of where he wants to go, he chose Hell's Kitchen, where the infamous Devil of Hell's Kitchen lives and hopes to eventually meet and interview the Daredevil.

The first day of being in his apartment he found that a PI named Jessica Jones lived on the same floor as he did and that she was the adopted sister Trish Walker, after being introduced to Jessica by saving a bunch of homeless people from the Mutants known as Ajax and Angel Dust that caused Clark to encounter Clint Barton, Captain America and some Agents of SHEILD like Maria Hill. Immediately following this was a surprise visit from Miss Walker who managed to get two VIP entries for an Avengers Party for the reopening of the Avengers Tower.

Jessica immediately declined the offer and was told by Trish that she was asking her sister's boyfriend which caused both the pale PI to get red in her face and saw her muscular friend also blush at the thought of being together with Jessica. Clark then told Trish that he didn't have a suit to wear and was almost immediately taken on a shopping spree by Trish to have more than a week's worth of clothes for himself and following the hour of shopping, Clark went back home and changed into his suit and was being watched by Trish and surprisingly enough Jessica Jones herself. Jessica had made a peep hole from her kitchen into his bedroom and both women got a very good long look at his impressive package down below. A sight that would forever be embedded within their memories for all time.

-Avengers Tower: 11 PM-

Both Trish Walker and Clark Kent walked into the surprisingly quiet lobby of the former Stark Tower and saw a receptionist at a small rounded desk and asked to see the bands that were their entry to the Avengers Tower. After a quick scan and a enjoy the party both Trish and Clark entered the elevator that led all the way up into the upper floors of the Avengers Tower.

JARVIS, the A.I. of Tony Stark, greeted them by saying their names and after some introductions to each other, Clark asked a series of questions to JARVIS about being an A.I. and what if he gained emotions. But alas all good things must come to an end as the elevator doors opened to reveal the very active party full of celebrities and the Earth's Mightiest Heroes with the exception of Thor Odinson, whom was currently dealing with the other Realms under Asgardian Rule.

The Avengers who were present during the party remembered that night as the last semi normal day in their lives as heroes. For the two lovebirds, Clark and Natasha, it was the start of a multi year journey throughout a world that initially thought of the Last Son of Krypton as a figure of controversy and was met with hate and kindness by some.

"Wait, this is before Zod's message to you, Clark, isn't it?" Asked Steve Rogers to the Man of Steel.

"Yeah..... gotta say that this might have been the most perfect day and evening before that." Clark said to Captain America and his friends.

Jor-El and Lara-Lor-Van both were looking at their son and the women who seemed to be attracted to him and were curious as to how many grandchildren they possibly have given the amount of women that fell for the Man of Steel.

James gave his grandparents a small smile as he showed them mental images of his siblings and their names but didn't want them to tell his mothers just yet as he wanted to see if both he, Lord Lui Kang, Doctor Fate, Dr. Stephen Strange and the One Above All to find them moments before their deaths and bring them into the Theater.

James then resumed the film and gave a fond smile at seeming his mother and father acting like normal people for the first time in a long time by his standards and time as he is immortal and has traveled across the Multiverse in order to find out all the outcomes for the war with Kang and Doom and eventually settled on this place, an old theater just outside of a new Timeline and world to get it right this time and insure that his family remains whole.

Trish and Clark walked out of the elevator and saw the Avengers dressed in fancy clothes with the exception of Steve Rogers, who Clark noticed seemed out of place in a party like this and was immediately approached by Tony Stark and Pepper Potts to say hi to the man who saved people from being turned into Mutants.

"Hello, Clark." The voice of the very beautiful Natasha Romanoff spoke out amongst the crowd of famous celebrities and fellow heroes. She wore a simple yet very form fitting emerald green dress with some white long-sleeved gloves that women normally wore during the 40's and 50's for party's, her dress showing a daring amount of her cleavage, something that absolutely didn't go unnoticed by Clark.

Clark and everyone around them which included Tony Stark, Pepper Potts, Trish Walker, Bruce Banner, Clint Barton and Steve Rogers were then shocked when Natasha seemingly glided across the floor towards Clark and gently kissed his cheek, leaving behind a red lipstick imprint almost as if she was marking him as her own.

"Wait, you know this punk?" Clint said, almost offended by the fact that his best friend knows this repoter.

"I suppose now's a good time as any to tell my teammates this. Clark, here, is my childhood friend. We both met years ago when we were kids and he reached out after the Battle for New York (2012), once he saw my name as the Black Widow, one of the Avengers who saved the world." Natasha said as she gave Trish a look and asked her a question.

"Would you mind terribly if I stole your date for a dance, Miss Walker?" Asked Natasha to Trish.

Trish, visibly intimidated by Natasha for some odd reason, quickly nodded her head as Natasha hooked her arm in Clark's and both took off towards the dance floor, leaving behind a seemingly hurt Clint Barton, a very surprised Steve Rogers and Tony Stark, a flustered Trish Walker and a amused Pepper Potts.

"What in the hell just happened?" Asked Tony to no in particular as the Avengers watched both childhood friends dancing as if they had done it before, Trish being the one with a keen eye spots the way that both Natasha and Clark both are looking at each other and deduces that they have feelings for one another and have already told one another as the Avengers, Pepper and Trish all felt their jaws drop the moment that Clark leaned in for a rather intimate kiss with Natasha.

-With Clark and Natasha-

Both pulled apart as Natasha required some much needed air while Clark didn't as his lungs allowed him to hold his breath indefinitely thanks to the Sun in the Sol System. "Think that gave your friends quite the shock, Tasha." Said Clark to Natasha as they both put their foreheads together and slow danced as the song that was playing switch to a different one from Steve's time.

As they slow danced all of the lights dimmed and two spot lights shined onto them as Tony made J.A.R.V.I.S. do so that way everyone could see the dance skills of the very beautiful Black Widow and to the rest of the people present at the party, the mysterious man who kissed her mere moments ago. "I'm going to kill Tony." Natasha muttered to Clark as they both gave the audience they now had a good display of their dance skills.

-Triskelion: 11:30 PM, November 30th-

To say that Fury and SHEILD were on high alert was an understatement as they had received images from J.A.R.V.I.S. that showed a odd yet intimidating looking ship that's placed it's into a lunar synchronized orbit around the Earth.

Fury tried to contact the Avengers in New York and many of his agents out in the field to pay close attention to the sky to see if anything happens to the ship while he attempts to make contact with his team. Before he could though, a power outage happened across the globe that stopped everything in it's tracks and killed hundreds of people on life support and possible newborns in NICUs across the world.

-Deep Within the Pacific Ocean-

An ancient and old being known by most in history as a Gojira aka Godzilla: King of the Monsters stirred awake from his 70+ year nap and could sense a being on his territory that didn't belong in it but could sense that it was of good nature and had a aura of hope surrounding it. But the others above the Earth the King could sense were here to destroy the balance he protects and would release his ancient and old rival, a 3 headed dragon not of this world.

Godzilla let out a growl and then his iconic roar that shook the sea and was a signal any who dare challenge his rule over the Earth and his role as a protector of balance.

SKREEEEE-EEEEEONGK!

-Fire Temple: China, 11:30 PM-

Lord Lui Kang closed his eyes in concentration as he could sense that certain events in his new timeline must happen for a reason and was interrupted by Geras asking if it was time to introduce the heroes of this Earthrealm to the other Realms. "No, old friend, they must first overcome General Dru-Zod, the Machine, Doomsday, each other, the Hydra known as Ghidorah, the Mad Titan, and Ruler of Apokolipis before we invite them to join our group of fighters. Especially the one known as Superman. This timeline rests on his shoulders and I do hope this time it works out well for everyone." Lord Lui Kang said as he opened his eyes as he could hear the King of the Monsters awaken.

-Avengers Tower: 11:30 PM-

As Natasha and Clark both continued to dance with one another, they both felt as if time for them had slowed down for them to a crawl and just as they were about to finish off their dance with a kiss the power all over the globe went off at the same exact time.

"J, find out what's happening, if it's a terrorist attack then let us know." Tony said and got no response from J.A.R.V.I.S. as the people in the room all looked at the massive TV that was in the common room of the Avengers Tower as a ominous message started to play across the globe.

Chapter Text

Chapter 3 - The Fate of Your Planet + Teasers from the Future!

The Avengers and people all over the globe all watched their TV's, phones, tablets and all could hear the mysterious alien speak in all languages across the globe.

“My name is General Zod, I come from a world far from yours.”

When Steve heard the tone that this ‘Zod’ used he knew that this was a possible enemy that Mankind couldn't hope to contain or reason with. He watched as the various different celebrities and their kids who had attended the opening of the Avengers Tower all hugged each other and could see the children's fear in their eyes.

 “I have journeyed across an ocean of stars to reach you. For some time now your world has sheltered one of my citizens. I request that you return this individual to my custody. For reasons unknown, he has chosen to keep his existence a secret from you. He will look like you, but he is NOT one of you.”

Natasha looked up at Clark and knew that this was the High General of his people, of Krypton. And wondered if her friend had lied to her and knew that right then and there that Zod was bad news alongside the Sword of Rao. Her hand subconsciously and instinctively went to hold Clark's as she couldn't read his face for the next few minutes.

Clint immediately wished that he was home on his farm with Laura and the kids. He just hoped that whoever this Zod was talking about would turn himself into his people.

Dr. Banner almost had a heart attack the moment he heard Zod's voice, it was almost as if he and Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross were the same person from different worlds, both Generals for their people and would do anything to win. He glanced at Tony, who he noticed was having a panic attack and was being helped by Pepper and Rhodey to calm down and looked at Maria Hill and could detect a hint of fear in her eyes as she looked at the screen.

“To those of you who may know of his current location; the fate of your planet rests in your hands. To Kal-El, I say this; surrender within 24 hours or watch this world suffer the consequences.”

-Queens, NYC-

A young Peter Parker and his twin sister, Teresa Parker, were both sitting down next to their Aunt May and Uncle Ben and all were very worried if the Avengers were able to stop General Zod from harming the Earth. They just needed to have faith and hope.

-Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters-

Logan and the X-Men all looked at Cerebro as it displayed the message that this General made to the people's of Earth and to this Kal-El person. Charles looked at Hank's creation and could tell just by feeling this alien's mind that he was bad news and hoped that his whoever he called out would turn himself into his people and leave the Earth alone.

-Somewhere in the Pacific Ocean-

A massive burst of oxygen rushed to the surface of the water where a neon blue glow imitated from below the along with a glowing pair of eyes that held a permanent look of hate at the object that was near the Moon of his Kingdom. A growl was heard on a certain frequency made by a hidden organization known as Monarch. Only time would tell if the King would reveal himself to the world and start the rise of the Titans.

-Back at the Tower-

Clark turned to look at Natasha and let go of her hand to walk over to the massive window that overlooked the city of New York and then up to the Moon where the ship that General Zod was in and looked back at the Avengers, a group of extraordinary people who saved the world, and decided that it was his turn to save the world he calls home and went out to the balcony that once acted as a suit up spot for Iron Man aka Tony Stark.

“Do you trust me, Tasha?” Clark asked his most trusted friend as he walked near the edge of the platform and looked down at the many people who started to gather around the Avengers Tower and could hear the people inside the penthouse of the Tower all gasp when he got closer towards the edge.

“With my life, Smallville.” Natasha said as the wind caused her rather long dress to bellow in the wind, almost acting like a cape flapping in the wind and made him turn around to look at her and pulled him into a gentle kiss and pushed him off of the Avengers Tower.

To say the team was shocked that Clark seemingly just committed suicide was an understatement and that shock turned to a little bit of fear once they all saw him float back to the platform a distance above Natasha Romanoff and shot off into the sky faster than a speeding bullet toward an unknown destination.

The heroes and people from Earth looked at the Last Son of Krypton and the deadly Black Widow with wide eyes and started to ask questions about why this is different from the previous timeline they all remember.

"That is because I changed some details, moved some things from other worlds into this one. Like for instance, instead of the Avengers finding out who Clark is during his stay on the Helicarrrier, they find out immediately following the General's message to Mankind and Kal." Said Lord Lui Kang to the audience to calm their nerves and prevent some panic about their memories.

"I just noticed that you, Natasha, pushed him off of the balcony. Why didn't we notice that before?" Asked Steve to his friend as he stared at the screen that was paused for the moment.

"That's because you all were so preoccupied with trying to figure out who Clark was to me along with the fear of him revealing his power of flight to everyone in the Tower." Natasha said, remembering that night quite well to realize that this night was also the night that she got a file from an unknown source with a video and classified Soviet data on her and Clark's infant son that they both didn't know existed yet.

Clark turned to look at James, who gave them a small wave and a sad smile, and asked him a series of questions that ranged from how he was put in cryogenic stasis at such a young age and who sent the encrypted file to his mother.

"From someone who wanted to make up for abandoning mom and her sister at a young age." Said James and looked at his grandmother aka Melina Vostokoff and understood why she sent that to her 'daughter'.

-The Fortress of Solitude aka Scout Ship-

Clark flew through the doors that automatically opened for the Last Son of Krypton and called out for his father.

"Dad!?" Called Clark as he was still in his suit that Trish bought for him and called out for his father again as the familiar voice of Jor-El spoke from behind him.

"I'm linked with the Ship's system, son, you don't have to yell." Said Jor as he he appeared from behind his son.

"Dad, General Zod just threatened Earth. How did he escape the Phantom Zone?" Asked Clark to his father and was a look of surprise on his father's face when he mentioned Zod escaped the Phantom Zone.

"You're scared." Jor said in fascination but then quickly regained his composure and explained to Clark a theory he just had. "It appears as though they used my design of the Phantom Drive by retrofitting their Phantom Protector into a Hyper Drive. The Sword of Rao became scientists for just a moment in order to find any survivors of Krypton in an attempt to rebuild their forces to the 200,000 that once were the Kryptonian Military." Explained Jor to Clark.

"But that would mean that they soon discovered that they went forward in time. Correct? Didn't the Phantom Drive send me back in time to Earth to live among the heroes of Earth?" Said Clark to Jor, as he read up on the exact specifications of a Phantom Drive to one day give that science to Tony Stark and the world to colonize the Stars.

Jor then asked his son a question, one very similar to that of his human father, Jonathan Kent. "You have a choice, Kal, a choice of whether to stand proud in front of the Human Race or not, but I believe that you won't let Mankind be harmed at all due to the goodness in your heart. You might even find that there are some members of the Sword of Rao don't fully agree with the General's ideals and methods." Said Jor to Clark, who looked at his father and felt that what his father had told him would lead to him making the right choice.

"I think I know what to do. But I'm going to need my Suit." Said Clark to his father as he turned to the Suit chambers in the hallway of the Scout Ship.

-Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New York-

Reverend Father Father Lantom of Hell's Kitchen listened to an old radio that had J. Jonah Jameson saying things about the aliens that have started to appear in New York following the Avengers formation and said something that made Clark just as he walked in think about something his father said to him when he was a young teen years ago.

{"You just have to decide what kind of man you want to grow up to be, Clark, because whoever that man is..... Good character or bad, he's.... he's going to change the world."}

After a brief introduction to Rev. Father Lantom, Clark was asked by the older man where he wanted to start by talking.

"That ship that appeared last night. I'm the one they're looking for." Clark said to human priest and saw his take a big gulp as he figured that most people were still convinced that all aliens were that of the Greys, a hostile species that's been watching Mankind since WWII, but since the Chitari invaded the Greys haven't been on Earth in some time, presumably due to the fear of Thanos and a Kryptonian under a yellow star, but that was information that he didn't know of yet, not for 3 years till the creation of a certain A.I. hellbent on Mankind's destruction.

"Do you know..... why they want you?" Asked Father Lantom to Clark who shook his head in response.

"No, but it's probably nothing good," He said looking at the older human. "But... if there's a chance that I can prevent a war from breaking out by turning myself in... Even if it's just a chance, shouldn't I take it?" Asked Clark to Rev. Father Lantom.

Lantom didn't say anything for a few moments before he responded to Clark. "What does your gut tell you?"

"That Zod can't be trusted." Clark said quickly. "But I'm not sure the people of Earth can be either."

Clark looked at the priest with a sad smile, knowing that he would only do more harm then good here in this house of God if he stayed and got up to leave and was told something by the priest that would forever be in his thoughts.

"Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith. The trust part comes later." Said Father Lantom to Clark as he left the church and went to a alleyway and shot off like a rocket and went to his mother in Smallville and to check on his cousin, whose pod was still in the first few stages of thawing.

-Timeskip: The Next Day-

"Father Lantom is right, ya know. Gotta have faith in dark times, Clark." Said Matt Murdock a lawyer by day and vigilante by night.

"I know, Matt, but look at how many times Mankind has encountered a human civilization that was lesser evolved than them. They killed off most of the population and they stole their resources in order to further their own people's existence or Empires." Clark said and hoped that what he was saying would resonate with a majority of the audiance who weren't from Earth and other civilizations that experienced the same exact thing.

"How come we've never seen her before, Clark?" Asked Tony as he pointed at Kara-Zor-El, who was still hugging Peter in a rather cute way as if he were a cuddly stuffed bear.

"The Cryogenic Pod she is in has thousands snd thousands of years of ice like build up around it. I'd say it would've taken around 3 years for her Pod to fully awaken her. Conveniently around the time that Peter Parker 16." Said Clark as he stroked his beard and thought of something.

"I can assume that most of you have already noticed that there's a few women surrounding myself and Natasha, yes?" Asked Clark as he looked around at his friends and allies.

"Well, that's because they are the mothers of my future children that Darkseid killed in order to turn me into his weapon. He kept the youngest baby and her mother alive as a bargaining chip in order to keep me in line." Clark revealed as he got some gasps and people looking up at the villain section of the theater and all eyes narrowed at Uxas aka Darkseid. "My child's name was Hannah Prince, Princess of Themyscira and daughter of Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman. Darkseid never intended on killing you, Diana, he wanted you to become his General for a Parademon-Kryptonian Army he worked on making by using my DNA mixed with his Parademons. The mad bastard managed to make 100,000 soldiers to conquer the Multiverse but was stopped by James and Lord Lui Kang here." Clark finished as he looked at his eldest son for him to explain why he was doing this.

"What my father is saying is that there are multiple women here that fell for him. They all got to be introduced to him by the Avengers and Justice League when both teams were at their peak before the events of your future. The world had 5 years to prepare for Thanos. In those 5 years my father here, became a figure of controversy and hate and focused on being a good man while also being a good father to me as I was only a year old. They all saw a man trying his best to be a good person and a good hero, that's why they all revealed their feelings for him." James said as he then asked the audience, those who were present in his dad's life up till his death some questions about Government oversight and how it prevents them from saving people.

Steve was one of the first to speak up and voice his own opinion on the subject, not knowing about his own future in this timeline. "I think that we all should be allowed to save people regardless of what the government tells us. We're a group of extraordinary and remarkable people who should be the shining example of what it means to be human."

Tony, who still was unsure of how he felt about being in the same exact room as his parents killer, Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier. "And that right there is exactly why the Avengers need oversight. Look at how many people died when we fought the Chitari and Loki or Zod's World Engine that almost leveled New York and the entire city that we had to destroy to prevent Ultron from killing all life on Earth, Cap." Said Tony as he stared at the former leader of the Avengers and at Clark.

"And you, big blue, entered the country of Boravia to talk to the nation's president. You did a good thing but ended up becoming a figure of controversy and hate. I'm just trying to keep the team together after your death." Tony said as he felt all eyes on him, especially the eyes of the rogue Avengers.

Clark blinked his eyes and saw the look on Tony's face, like his age finally caught up with him as he heard the faint strangled gasps that were always the telltale sign that Tony was about to have panic attack, Clark would often hear Tony have them following the Black Zero Event that revealed Superman, himself, to the world, in the Tower as Clark's and Jessica Jones' apartment building was completely gone. There was only one thing that somehow survived and that was Clark journal he kept. Clark looked down at Natasha as he gently squeezed her hand before floating over to where Tony, Pepper, Happy and Rhodey were sitting and landed just in front of Iron Man himself, what he did kinda surprised everyone, mostly the civilians that were present and villains by pulling his friend into a hug as he let Tony cry into his broad shoulder.

"Most of you may not know this about Tony, but he has the occasional panic attack. From what Mrs. Stark here has told me is that it all started following his disappearance in Afghanistan years ago before he became Iron Man. And you.... Captain." Clark said through beard and grit teeth as he looked at Steve Rogers and continued to speak. "Left Tony to die in Siberia. Alone and afraid. You are very, very lucky that Natasha was still dealing my death otherwise she would have most likely broken your legs and arms and that I was dead." He finished as he looked around the theater to see people looking at him.

"Better, Tony?" Clark asked Tony as he got a muffled yes in response and patted his friend's shoulder gently and let him sit back next to Pepper and Rhodey. "James, I take it the theater has different rooms for the many people here to go into?" Clark asked his son as he felt like he was going to pass out at any given moment from the stress of gaining his freewill back and memories bit by bit.

"Yes, father. If everyone would please follow me and Lord Lui Kang to the lobby of the theater." James said as he looked back at his mother and father and summoned portals for the Titans of Earthrealm to go to the Hollow Earth to relax and rest for the time being till their part of the story is revealed.

Clark's broad shoulders, the very same ones that lifted Oil Rigs and held the entire Multiverse on them, started to tremble, it was one of his telltale signs to Natasha that her best friend turned boyfriend and husband that the Man of Steel was on the verge of having his own panic attack. Most heroes and civilians didn't know that Superman also suffered his own form of PTSD also had nightmares about different What If..? scenarios.

Natasha gracefully leaped from where her family was seated to where Tony's was at and where Clark stood. She gently placed her soft delicate hands onto his chest as she hugged her Man of Steel from behind, resting her head onto his back, hearing his heartbeat start to slow down to a normal pace for a Kryptonian.

Clark lowered his head with closed eyes, relishing the feeling of her hands upon his chest and wished that their time would last for an eternity but knew that eventually they all would have to enter the new universe in order to prevent Darkseid, Kang and Victor Von Doom from achieving their goals as he found out that Thanos bought the entire universe time to prepare for the Celestial from emerging and killing everything on Earth and the eventually arrival of Darkseid's Armada.

"Clark, look at me." Natasha said as she removed her hands from the symbol on his chest and waited for him to turn and look at her. Eventually he did with his long locks blocking his face, Natasha gently and slowly moved his long locks away from his Cobalt Blue eyes that were still closed and rested her hands against his cheeks. "милый, please open your eyes." Asked Natasha to Clark as he placed his large hands over her small ones as he opened up his Cobalt Blue eyes and stared into her Green eyes.

"Never thought I'd see those eyes of yours again, Natasha." Clark said as he gently brought both of her hands to his lips and pressed gentle kisses into each knuckle and smiled when he heard her giggle. It made him happy to know that not all of her base emotions were completely removed when the Red Room trained her to be the best spy the entire world knew of. "I don't like the blonde hair you have, my love." He said as he moved his hands from hers and went down towards her waist and pulled her into a loving embrace.

"Well considering I was on the run for half a year before you were brought back to life, I had to hide myself somehow, Mr. Kent. And if I remember correctly you never once complained following our wedding night~" Natasha said with a Cheshire grin as she stood up on her tippy toes and gently captured his lips against hers as both the Last Son of Krypton and Black Widow stayed like this for the next few minutes, just holding each other and feeling the others heartbeat.

It was then that Bruce Wayne and Thor Odinson walked back into the theater to find their friends and both Dark Knight and God of Thunder found them in a loving embrace and kissing each other. Thor cleared his throat loud enough to spook Natasha but not Clark as he heard them enter long before Natasha heard them. "My friends, young James has requested the Avengers and Justice League to meet for dinner that your mother, Kal, has made with James and young Peter." Thor said with a smile on his face and looked at the Man of Bats and waited for him speak.

"We need to talk. All of us as a team." Bruce said, almost immediately thinking of contingencies for all of these different beings who were brought here to witness Superman's timeline. "But first some much needed food and rest is required. So come on you two." He said with a small smirk on his face as both he and Thor walked out into the lobby.

"The deadly Black Widow getting scared by Thor's booming voice. Never thought I'd see the day." Clark said with an amused look and smile as he brushed aside some of her blonde hair from her forehead and gently rested his forehead against hers as both simply stared into each other's eyes for a few more minutes before heading out into the lobby where all of their friends and allies were waiting for the two lovebirds.

It was Doctor Stephen Strange, Sorcerer Supreme and resident Keeper of the Time Stone who spoke to them first. "Kal-El, Son of Jor-El, it is an honor to meet you in person, if only it were under better circumstances." Doctor Strange said to Clark who saw the Time Stone's container/necklace.

The Ancient One then gave Natasha a warm smile as she guided everyone to the massive dining room that James made himself in his spare time and Clark saw his mother cooking up a storm with Queen Frigga of Asgard, Hippolyta of Themyscira, Diana of Themyscira, Peter 1 (MCU), Peter 2 (Sonyverse), Peter 3 (2000's) and surprisingly his Kryptonian mother, Lara-Lor-Van. After everyone got seated Clark simply leaned against the doorframe that led into this room, watching everyone interact with one another.

Clark let out a pained chuckle as he gently clutched his scar where his heart got pierced by Doomsday's bone like claw, the scar not fully closed as he needs constant contact with Sol's Sun to complete the Revitalization Process as Kelex calls it. "Ow." Clark said loud enough to cause both his human mother and biological mother to turn their heads alongside everyone present in the room to look at Clark as he stayed leaned against the doorframe and clutched his chest.

"He needs a yellow star's radiation to keep his heart from giving out." Said Lord Lui Kang to everyone as he and James Romanoff-Kent got up from their seats and used their combined powers to spawn a Yellow Star outside of the Theater in the space between the viewing room and lobby, but making it to where it was only felt by Superman, Supergirl, Power Girl, James and Faora-Hu-Ul, who was gifted her memories of a different timeline all together of where she redeemed herself in Kal's eyes as James understood the necessity to have started least one other Kryptonian woman as one of his father's mates/wives.

Clark's skin went from the sickly pale it was mere moments ago to his normal skin tone in seconds as his breathing became more calm and not panicked like he was before being healed a little bit. "Thanks, Lui Kang, James." He said as he was helped up by both and sat down at the head of the long table and leaned back against the chair and felt two pair of hands gently caressing his own and looked at both his left and right sides to see Natasha Romanoff and Jessica Jones looking at him with a bit of concern, more so Nat than Jessica as she knew her best friend turned new boyfriend would eventually get back up from almost anything.

It was then that the Kryptonian Service Drones were assigned different plates to being to the table, starting with the Avengers, Pepper Potts and Morgan Stark, the Bartons, Cristian Palmer, Sorcerers, Asgardians, the Warriors Three, Sif, Jane Foster, Darcy Lewis, Justice League, Teth-Adam and his family, Lord Lui Kang and his champions, Jor-El and Lara-Lor-Van, Kara-Zor-El, Faora-Hu-Ul, May Parker, Peter 1, Peter 2, Peter 3, Captain Carter, the Guardians, the Justice Gang, Justice Society, Queen Hippolyta, Queen Romonda, Carol Danvers, Hela Odinsdóttir, Lady Frigga, Odin Borson, Loki Laufeyson/Odinson, Power Girl, Catwoman, the Eternals, Peacemaker, Creature Commandos, the Wakandans, X-Men, Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr, Fantastic Four, Shalla Bal, Melina Vostokoff, Yelena Belova, Kate Bishop, Bob Reynolds/Sentry, Bucky Barnes, Red Guardian, Ghost, Shang Chi, Wenwu, Ying Nan, Ying Li, Xu Xialing, Katy, Scott Lang, Cassie Lang, Hope Van-Dyn, Hank Pym, Janet Van-Dyn, Korg and Miek, Billy Baston and his adoptive family, Rick Flag Sr, Rick Flag Jr, few more people, and finally at the head of the table, Superman, Black Widow and Jessica Jones.

It was then that 5 year old Morgan Stark got up from where her mother and father were seated at and ran all the way up to the bearded man and her Auntie Nat and began to gently poke at his thigh, gaining Clark's attention at the young girl. "Uncle Kal? Why you look sad?" Asked Morgan Stark with her natural curiosity that came with being a 5 year old.

Clark looked down at the 5 year old girl and a bright smile appeared on his face as he remembered when Tony and Pepper announced that they were expecting a child during following the aftermath of Thanos' Snap aka the Decimation. "Why would I be sad, little bug?" Clark asked Morgan as he gently scooped her up into his arms and let her touch his face.

"Because Daddy said you looked like you needed a hug." Said the 5 year old girl as Clark looked at the corner of his peripheral vision and saw the ghosts of everyone he killed while under Darkseid's influence. Morgan thankfully hugged Clark and blocked his view of his ghosts.

"Well your dad is a smart man." Clark said as gave Tony a thankful look and let Morgan play with his hair and beard before she turned and saw her favorite Aunt of all time, Natasha! Clark gave his wife a smile as he let Morgan leap from his lap into Natasha's as he looked over at Jessica, who had a kind and warm smile at Morgan's antics.

James gave his grandmother a smile as she sat down next to him and his biological grandparents, Jor and Lara, and started to think of different ways of how exactly to bring back his siblings as he very much missed them and subconsciously started to project his thoughts to the Telepaths in the room. The only one to speak to him and calm his mind was Charles Xavier himself.

"You are projecting your thoughts, young one." Charles said in James' mind as everyone started to eat while Natasha played with Morgan Stark and James looked up to meet Professor's eyes.

"Sorry, Professor." James said as he watched as his father let out a genuine laugh when Morgan said something funny about Tony and then said her mommy's coined word. Shit. Needless to say that all of the adults were laughing was an understatement, those who knew Tony all laughed at the face he made when Pepper gave him a look of anger and amusement when their daughter said shit.

-Timeskip: A Few Hours Later-

-Clark and Nat's Room-

Clark and Natasha both weren't asleep as they were looking at a Kelex who displayed an image of Clark's wound that's been fully healed. "All scans show that Master Kal's wound is fully healed and his powers have gotten stronger following his return from the dead." Said the floating Kryptonian Drone to her owner and his life partner.

"That's good, right?" Asked Natasha who turned from the Liquid Geo display of Clark's body and looked at her husband's face that was in deep thought and placed her hand on his chest over his heart to feel his heartbeat and noticed that it went from that panicked erratic beats to the calm beats whenever he's around her.

"Natasha?" Clark asked as he blinked his eyes and had a look of fear behind his cobalt eyes that was well hidden from anyone except for Natasha herself and let her touch his bearded face. "I'm sorry that caused you to worry about me, it's just that I still feel that thing's bone claw in punching a whole straight through my chest and back."

Natasha then motioned for Kelex to go to back to her watch form that she picked out and guided Clark towards their bed and gently sat him down near their pillows and and pulled him down to lay in her lap with his shoulder length hair sprawled out around her thighs. "Just try to sleep, моя милая (my love). Focus on my voice and sleep." Natasha said to Clark as she hummed the very same tune that his biological mother hummed to him before he was sent to Earth.

Clark looked up at Nat's eyes and could sense her belief in him, in the ideal of hope and that someday they'll get their happy ending and eventually drifted off to sleep and remembered Tony's words to Pepper Potts following their fight against Thanos on his home planet of Titan. When I drift off, I'll dream of you. Cause it's always you.

-Clark's Dream/Vision-

He opened his eyes and looked around to see a orange tinted sky and got a feeling of dread run down his spine and turned to see a farmhouse and two people standing just a few feet outside of the house waiting for him as he noticed that the ground seemed have a layer of water over it and walked over to the two people and immediately let out a sob as he saw both his father and Natasha, a bit older and with her red hair and a few bits of the blonde she had for a while, and stopped just a few feet from them.

"What did it cost, Son?" Asked Jonathan Kent to his son and stayed staring at Clark while Natasha just looked at him with a sad smile.

"No.... Why am I here?" Asked Clark to them both and felt as if he were a human and not Kryptonian in that moment before Natasha spoke.

"What did it cost, Clark?" She asked him and noticed his movements and posture went from scared to a panicked state and slowly walked up to him and repeated herself again. "What did it cost, моя милая."

"You, Natasha. It costed you." Clark said as he looked down at her and noticed that his father wasn't around anywhere and looked down at Natasha's piercing green eyes with his cobalt blue eyes.

"Your mother and I loved you." Said the voice of Jor-El disembodied voice off in the distance.

"Your mother and I knew you would change the world." Said the disembodied voice of Jonathan Kent.

"Your heart was tested." Said Jor's disembodied voice again.

"What happens now with Da-Superman gone?" Asked Peter Parker no-one in particular as he and the Avengers didn't know how to respond to the kid that just lost both of his parents in one day of him being brought back from the Decimation.

"Fear is a powerful thing. Clark Kent." Said the voice of Nicaraguan Drug Lord Raul Menendez. "Loss of one's family creates great fear in one as powerful as yourself. So tell me, Clark, what would you do to bring back your son?"

"Tell me, Kryptonian, why do you fight on when I have taken everything from you. Your home, your friends, your family. The very symbol on your chest has become the symbol of my Armada. So I ask again, Kryptonian. Why. Do. You. Fight." Said Uxas aka Darkseid to a broken and bloodied Superman.

"My name is Clark Kent. They called me Superman. Remember me." Said an older voice of Clark to no-one who was listening to an Immortal alien speak as he stood in the golden fields of Valhalla surrounded by his friends and family.

-End of Dream/Vision-

Clark woke up with a scream and heat vision at the ready as Natasha was jolted awake at the sudden scream and sound of his heat vision going off for a few seconds. Kelex immediately activated and summoned a small swarm of Liquid Geo and covered her master's eyes in order to protect his life partner/wife and asked her master if he was alright as she was genuinely concerned for his wellbeing and saw the blood seeping out of the Liquid Geo blindfold around his eyes.

"Lady Romanoff, it would appear that Master Kal has caused strain on his eyes as he is currently bleeding." Said Kelex to Natasha as she removed the Liquid Geo blindfold, letting more blood flow as Clark rapidly blinked his eyes and looked around the room for Natasha.

Natasha nodded at Kelex and quickly ordered the House of El Drone to go and get Doctor Stephen Strange, Tony, Bruce Wayne and Bruce Banner, Helen Cho, Lady Lara-Lor-Van and every scientist or medical professional that were around the room they were in and gently took Clark's arms in hers and helped him towards the door that shifted to lead out into a Medical Room that was a mixture of Human, Kryptonian, and Asgardian both in design and supplies.

Natasha then helped Clark to a nearby seat and table as she made him sit down on the table and gently took his left hand into hers and both waited for the group that Natasha asked for to come into the Medical Room.

One by one the people that Kelex was sent to grab all piled into the medical room and one by one they all saw Clark's bloody eyes and blood on Natasha's shirt that she wore as Strange and Clark's biological mother stepped forward and started to conduct their own observations over his wounded eyes and eyesight.

"Kal, my son I need you open your eyes for me." Said Lady Lara to her son and gently caressed his forehead while Strange looked over Kelex' diagram of Kal's eyes and he immediately understood what happened to his eyes and told Kelex to let the other scientists and medical professionals give it a once over before he had Kelex let Lady Lara see it.

Clark could hear Stephen Strange speaking to Natasha about what was wrong with his eyes and he slowly opened them to see the vague face of his mother and Strange giving him something for his eyes, clearing the burst blood from his eyeballs and healing said broken blood vessels in his eyeballs.

"What happened?" Asked Clark as he blinked rapidly as per Strange's orders and felt the hot blood go down his face and underneath his suit and could see fully after a few minutes of rapidly blinking and crying out the blood.

Natasha spoke up as she understood what had happened as this happened only once before and that was immediately following his fight with Zod, ultimately killing the only other member of his species in the previous Timeline. "You had a nightmare, моя милая, a really bad one this time and you used your Heat Vision and burst your eyes blood vessels. I sent Kelex to get everyone in here to help you." She said as she looked at him and could tell that Clark could use a shower and much needed rest.

It was then that the other long lost member of the House of El family barked and made his presence known as he tackled Clark to the ground and licked his face, messing up his beard, mustache and long hair. "Krypto! Bad dog, bad, get off of Kal." Lara quickly said as she used her newfound strength and pulled the Kryptonian War Hound off of her son.

Clark let out a laugh as he was helped up by Natasha and Tony and let his mother introduce the lovable War Hound to his wife and friends. "Everyone this is Krypto, one of the last War Hounds that Krypton ever had when Kal was born. He's close to both Kal and Kara." Said Lady Lara to them.

Clark watched Krypto carefully once he was able to move around Natasha and saw that the super pup as Peter would call him sniffed her legs and her behind, causing her to jump slightly and reprimanded the pooch. "Bad boy! You don't do that to people." Natasha told Krypto, who sat down in front of her and simply tilted his head to the side in a cute manner that caused the Black Widow's normally ice cold heart to melt as she soon found herself scratching the Kryptonian Wolf/War Hound's stomach, somehow getting the super pup's itchy spots.

It was at that time that most of the scientists and doctors went back to their room while the only ones left in the medical room were Clark and Nat, Krypto, Tony Stark, Doctor Strange, Doctor Fate aka Kent Nelson, the Engineer (2025), an alternate version of Kal-El (2025), Lois Lane (2025), Lady Lara, Jor-El, Kelex.

The door to the room opened as a sleepy Morgan Stark and Peter Parker both walked as they had to use the restroom and saw a lot of people exit the room and wanted to see what was going on. "What going on?" Asked Morgan as she rubbed her eyes while around the room and immediately noticed the large fuzz ball on the ground getting scratches from her aunt.

"PUPPY!" Morgan yelled at the top of her little lungs, it caused great pain for the 4 Kryptonians and one War Hound as she scurried across the floor with unnatural speed for a 5 year old and was literally vibrating with joy and wonder at the large Kryptonian Wolf.

"Where did he come from?" Asked Peter as he rubbed his sleepy eyes and was almost fully awake from Morgan's shrieking of the word puppy and saw the Kryptonian Wolf gently lick Morgan's face and let the younger human pet his soft snow white mane.

"This is Krypto. He's a Kryptonian War Hound." Said Tony as he watched how the War Hound was with his daughter and figured that Morgan would have a best friend for the rest of her life.

Peter was then gently guided by Clark to sit down next to Natasha to show the super dog that he was family as the War Hound looked between his master and the two humans who he seemed trust.

-Krypto's Perspective-

The lifelong friend of Kal-El aka Clark Kent looked at the two humans and continued to let the smaller one pet his mane, his eyes then shifted to the other people that were in the odd looking room.

He saw his master's father and mother standing near a different version of their son and spoke about how his version of Jor and Lara were.... vastly different from them. How they wanted him to conquer the Earth and rule over the planet and father as many children as he could, the latter bit runs true for their Kal as the person he considers his wife is sterile and can't have children.

Krypto let out a chuff of contempt as he saw Morgan get gently scooped up by who he can assume to be her father, a human with an odd glowing light in his chest. The War Hound found the light to be a comfort and scooted closer to the blonde haired woman and teenage boy, plopping down in front of them as he panted and watched as his master walk up to the woman he was sitting in front of and give her a gentle, yet loving kiss before ruffling the teen's hair and turning to the others and let them know that he was heading to bed with the blonde haired woman, the teen and the super pup and was promptly lifted off of the ground by his master's strong arm and all 4 went back to the master bedroom that was gifted to him by his Immortal son, James Romanoff-Kent.

-No One's Point Of View-

The next day/morning was rather uneventful for the heroes of Earth, with the exception of Morgan calling Faora by Anutie Faora, something that made Clark have a genuine laugh and smile as he saw how Faora's normal cold exterior and lack thereof emotions started to crack with each minute she was around Morgan Stark. Clark only hopped that he could alter the timeline so that Morgan didn't grow up without a father but also knows that for the events of his future to play out in a carefully crafted way it would reset everything to a perfect natural balance, he would need to unfortunately have Tony Stark sacrifice himself in order to stop 2014's Thanos during what Strange called 'The Endgame'. One where world ending events happen as common as a cat getting stuck up a tree. He only had to have hope.

James suggested that they all take the day off of watching his father's timeline for now go to see how Kong and the other Titans were doing, most of the heroes on the Avengers and Justice League agreed as James made a portal for the super-powered individuals enter the Hollow Earth, with a protective barrier between all of them and the Planet's gravity well that crushes anything small that enters the Ancestral Home of the Titans.

Everyone was spat out of the portal with Clark, Faora, Karen Starr, Kara, Krypto and James being the only other ones to fly and caught most of the people but couldn't catch Jia, Peter, Morgan and Cassie Lang who were thankfully saved in the nick of time by Titanus Kong aka King Kong of Skull Island and the Hollow Earth.

Kong gently cradled the teens to his chest as he gripped a massive thick vine and used it to slow his decent down to the plains where he made his home on one of the massive mountains in the Hollow Earth. Jia signed to Kong saying thanks for catching them as she introduced her massive Titan friend to her human friends.

*Kong, this is Peter Parker also known as Spider-Man and this is Cassie Lang also known as Stature.*  Jia signed to the King of Hollow Earth.

*Good. Friends.* Was his response as Kong didn't really get that much practice from the humans who studied him and gave then a grin, showing off his Adamantium tooth.

Clark and the others landed everyone they caught next to the Great Ape as Krypto immediately flew up to be eye level with Kong and barked to gain his attention.

Kong's eyes widened as he saw the snow white Kryptonian Wolf barking at him, not in a display of dominance but in a playful manner, Kong then stuck out his hand to the side to catch his Ancestral Axe and Suko, Adopted Son of Kong from hitting the heroes and the War Hound. Kong growled at his adoptive son and made him go sit on a pile of stacked rocks that made a small chair of sorts for the Orangutan youngster and let out what Clark, Tony Stark, Bruce Wayne, and Alexei (Red Guardian) would call a dad sigh or huff.

Kong shook his head as he then turned his attention back to Krypto and wanted to see if his new friend was as strong as he thought he was by letting the super dog grab/bite his Axe and take it to the entrance of his cave/home.

Kong got on one knee and bent down to get a closer look at these so called heroes and his eyes landed on the one that seemed to be the boss of sorts, the one with the S on his chest and let out air from his nose and looked between the blonde haired woman to his left and the younger human wearing a black hat. The King could sense that they were a family along with the one called Peter Parker and watched as the younger man in the hat guide his father's and mother's hands to Kong's nose and let them touch the King of Hollow Earth.

"This is amazing. How Krypton or any other species never found out about the Titans is a miracle in of itself." Said Natasha as she gave Kong a warm smile that told him that she was a friend and looked over at Clark who had his eyes closed in deep thought.

"I can hear his thoughts, see how Kong wants to protect his troop of Great Apes and Mankind. But I also see his anger towards the Skullcrawlers and some humans that brought death and destruction to his home on Skull Island." Clark said as he opened his eyes to took a step back to look at Kong's curious eyes as they looked at each person apart of the Avengers and Justice League.

-Timeskip: One Day Later-

-Omni Theater Dome: Kent/El Section-

Clark sat down in between Natasha Romanoff and Jessica Jones as he looked around to see the various different people from different worlds and timelines sit down in a calm fashion. The villains, however, did not get along as some started fights and bickering while those like Uxas aka Darkseid and Thanos were calm and collected and were thinking of ways to kill each other and the Last Son of Krypton.

"We need to keep an eye on Adrian Toomes, Thanos, and Darkseid, Nat." Said Clark to Natasha as he knew that James and The One Above All would have to restrain them.

"Leave it to your kid, Clark, I'm sure he would love to kill most of these people." Jessica said as she gave Clark's shoulder a firm squeeze when she saw Killgrave among the calm villains and knew he would've taken great pleasure in torturing her friend turned boyfriend alongside anyone she cared for.

"You okay?" Asked Clark as he could hear heartbeat and feel the firm grip she had on his shoulder and tracked where she was looking at.

James then appeared from a portal he opened up near the edge of a stage area near the foot of the screen and told everyone to pipe down and watch the film as he snapped his fingers and restraints appeared on each villain, with the exception of Thanos, Amanda 'The Wall' Waller, Darkseid and surprisingly Livewire, one of his father's many villains who weren't all that bad and were one of the many survivors that Darkseid killed in order to further turn his father into his weapon.

James had a sneaking suspicion that Livewire was one of his many mothers but wasn't 100% sure as he wasn't there during Darkseid's invasion of Earth in the previous timeline, only time would tell for now as he watched as she gave him a small wave and a kind smile and snapped his fingers to move her to the seat and was vacant behind his father.

He teleported back to his seat next to his older 'brother' and 'sister', Peter and Teresa Parker, but in between them as he didn't want to get in between each of their respective girlfriends and boyfriend, he then tossed the unique remote to his mother as he sent her a small tablet with the scene they all left on previously.

Natasha found it and pressed play on the remote as the Theater's lights dimmed and the scene changed from the Kent Farm to the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrrier where the Avengers, Director Nicholas Fury, Maria Hill, Sharon Carter and Secretary Alexander Pierce were all waiting for Clark to show up as Natasha was the only person they knew who seemed to know the alien.

-S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrrier-

-December 1st, 2013-

"How do we know if you haven't been compromised by this Kal-El, Agent Romanoff?" Asked Alexander Pierce to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s best spy they had.

Natasha looked at the Secretary and then at her team and father figure/boss and gave the Secretary a smile that sent a chill down his spine along with every Hydra Agent that that infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D., though the world and Avengers didn't know it yet. "Mr. Secretary, if Kal wanted to he could've taken over this world years ago, he hasn't, he's a good person and I think we should all be lucky that he landed in America and not Russia or North Korea." Said Natasha to Alexander Pierce and everyone as she was in an interrogation room as Sharron told everyone that the alien was floating above the Helicarrrier and asking for Natasha specifically.

Fury let out a curse as he told everyone to hold their fire as he and the Avengers went topside to see this super-powered being. He heard Stark mention something about them possibly needing the Hulk to help subdue the alien as Dr. Banner told Tony that even he wasn't sure that he could stop this kind of threat, that Hulk wasn't able to.

That caused a chill to run down everyone's spin as Fury and the Avengers followed Natasha topside from one of the aircraft elevators that took everyone who followed her to meet this 'Kal-El'. They all looked up to see a man floating over the edge of the Helicarrrier where a decent number of S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents had their weapons pointed up at this alien who had on a ocean blue suit with an odd-looking S adorned on his chest and a red cape.

"All right. You've gotten our attention. What is it you want?" Fury asked the alien as he saw one of his men prepare a pair of handcuffs that R&D made that should work on him as they worked on Loki a year ago.

"I would like to speak with Natasha Romanoff." Clark told Fury as he could hear the frantic heartbeats of some of these S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents like Brock Rumlow and Jasper Sitwell as well as Secretary Alexander Pierce. All of whom were Hydra and deadly in their own right.

"What makes you-" Fury started when Natasha walked through the various different Agents and her Avengers Teammates to get to Clark and took in his suit, absolutely loving how it showed off his muscular body and toned arms and legs, she gave him a kind smile, one that held something behind it but was unreadable to the rest of the people and watched as he landed gently on the Helicarrrier and walked over to the Avengers and Fury who had the Agent who had the cuffs to place them onto him.

-Interrogation Room Next to the Hulk Containment Pod-

"You let them handcuff you?" Asked Natasha with an amused smile as she watched Clark's tensed shoulders relax a bit.

"Wouldn't be much of a surrender if I resisted. And if it makes them feel safe then all the better." Clark told Natasha as he saw her eyes wandering over the Symbol of the House of El.

"Why the S?" She asked him and got a amused smile back as Clark then explained what the S stands for and why his father wanted him to guide Humanity.

"It's not an 'S'. On my world it means 'Hope'. It's the symbol of my Kryptonian House, the House of El. TheSymbol of the House of El means Hope, embodied within that Hope is the fundamental belief in the potential of every person to be a force for good." Clark explained to her and knew that the Avengers and Fury were listening and made sure that they heard him loud and clear.

"Well, here it's an 'S'...... how about Super-" Natasha went to say just as Pierce spoke up, getting tired of listening to the their conversation.

"Hi, uh, sir. My name is-" Said Alexander Pierce as Clark spoke up, cutting off the man who would one year from now cause the downfall of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as cause a new version of S.H.I.E.L.D. to rise up.

"Secretary Alexander Pierce. I know, I can see your I.D. badge in your left breast pocket, along with a half-eaten role of Wintergreen Lifesavers. I can also see the squad of soldiers in the next room preparing that tranquilizing agent. You won't need it." Clark said to the Secretary.

"Sir, y-y-you can't expect us to not take precautions. You could be carrying some kind of alien pathogen." Said Alexander Pierce with the nervousness of an old man.

"Been here for 33 Years, Secretary. Haven't infected anyone." Clark said in a calm fashion that made Natasha think of his human father, Jonathan Kent.

"That you know of. We have legitimate security concerns. Now you revealed your identity to Agent Romanoff here, but you won't do the same with us?" Fury questioned Clark as he wanted to bring this super-powered being into the Avengers and eventual Justice League.

"Let's put all of the cards on the table, Director." Clark said as he broke the cuffs and walked over to the one way glass/mirror. "You're scared of me because you can't control me. You don't, and you never will. But that doesn't mean I'm your enemy."

"Then who is? Zod?" Asked Fury to the soon to be Man of Steel.

"That's what I'm worried about." Clark said with 100% honestly to Fury.

"Be that as it may, I've been given strict orders to hand you over directly to Zod." Said Fury as he and everyone else left the room to transmit their coordinates to Zod while Natasha stayed in the room with Clark and saw him press something near his belt buckle that released his personal A.I. Kelex and told her to block the cameras and audio to this room.

"That went surprisingly well all things considered, Clark." Said Natasha as she walked over to him and gently hugged him from behind.

"They're scared of things beyond their control, Tasha. When we were kids..... if I was able to be hurt, would you have taken me down after I showed you my abilities?" Asked Clark in a almost quiet voice.

"If you did try and harm myself or Yelena, then possibly. But, Clark, you're a good person and have a good heart. You are one of the strongest men I have ever known and I'm worried that Zod might kill you." Said Natasha to her boyfriend as she felt him turn around to face her and ever so gently press his lips against hers just as the rest of the Avengers came into the room behind the one way mirror.

"Woah, did not expect the Black Widow to have a soft spot for aliens." Said Tony as he tried to figure out where he had seen this alien male before and suddenly the realization hit him and Clint Barton immediately.

"You're that punk reporter from the party at the Avengers Tower. You're the one that flew away and caused Stark here to have a panic attack." Clint said to Clark who let his shoulders relax a bit.

"Yes, my human name is Clark Joseph Kent, but you guys can all me Clark." He told the Avengers as he saw Dr. Banner's face light up with scientific fascination and curiosity once his bio scanner dinged, signaling that it was done and pick up a nearby tablet with holographic capabilities and displayed Clark's powers he had as he knew that human technology wasn't as advanced as Kryptonian Technology and most tech of the 'Higher' Species out in the known and unknown universe, yet he still found Human Technology fascinating and lot easier to understand than his own Kryptonian Tech.

"Fascinating, it appears as though you can absorb sunlight and use it as almost a fuel source for your body." Said Bruce Banner from his observation of the scan and let Tony look over the data just from a single scan.

"That's because of the Sun. Krypton's Sun was a Red Dwarf Star and named Rao after the God Rao, and don't ask because I don't have the answers yet but my Kryptonian Service Drone named Kelex is able to answer that. When we Kryptonians are exposed to a Red Dwarf Star it makes us almost like a human, we're still stronger and have a denser bone structure yet when exposed to a Yellow Star..... we gain God-like powers." Clark explained to the Avengers and then was asked by Captain Steve Rogers why his people were threatening the Earth.

-S.H.I.E.L.D. Desert Base in Nevada-

They stood on the edge of a military base in the middle of the desert, waiting. There was nothing around for miles and miles, a perfect place to avoid any innocents from getting caught in the middle of a crossfire, in the event things went bad.

Behind Clark, SHIELD and the American troops made a barrier, with armed soldiers, tanks, helicopters and Quinjets. In front of them, making a line of their own, the Avengers stood in all their glory, all of them clad in their respective suits. Only Natasha stood a few meters forward, waiting by Clark's side. There was a tense silence in the air.

"Thank you," Clark said, suddenly, looking at Natasha.

"For what?" she asked him as she raised an eyebrow and turned to him.

"For believing in me. For trying to stop them."

Natasha gave him a bitter smile. "Didn't make much of a difference in the end." Said as she looked at the symbol upon his chest and had a feeling that everything would be alright after they deal with Zod and the Sword of Rao.

Clark looked in her eyes. "It did to me." As he said that, there was a sound in the sky, like something big and fast had just entered the atmosphere. Everybody looked up.

"They are coming. You should go back now," Clark said, every muscle in his body tensing.

Natasha hesitated for a moment, but complied, going back to join the Avengers a few meters back. The dark gray ship came down from the sky with amazing velocity, almost touching the ground as it hovered in his direction, lifting the desert dust. It stopped suddenly, opening its flaps like four bug wings, turning in air and finally landing, its engines making his cape sway.

A ramp extended down, touching the ground, and two people got out of the ship. Both of them were women, going by the shape of their bodies, and both of them were completely covered in a black Kryptonian skinsuit and a black Kryptonian armor, complete with a skull like helmet and a breathing apparatus; one of them, the one who stayed close to the ship, was holding some kind of weapon.

The other woman, however, was unarmed and kept walking without hesitation in Clark's direction, her black cape dancing to her moves, until she stopped in front of him; as she did it, her breathing device retracted inside her armor and her helmet lost its black color, becoming transparent and allowing him to see her face.

She was a very beautiful woman, with short dark hair, red full lips and the most piercing blue eyes he had ever seen. Her blue eyes looked at him, going all the way up from his feet, drinking every detail, until they stopped on his face. Clark felt extremely uncomfortable. Not because of what she did; Natasha had done the same thing earlier and it only embarrassed him a little.

But because her eyes, as beautiful as they were, seemed colder than ice. She had the eyes of a predator.

"Kal-El," she said, suddenly, her voice carrying almost no emotion at all. "I'm sub-commander Faora-Ul. On behalf of General Zod, I extend you his greetings."

All of a sudden the screen glitched out and paused the film as if the One Above All decided to show these heroes of his most favorite universe their future and the future of the Earth after the Death of Superman.

"What's happening?" Asked Clark to his son as he looked at the screen, studying it and realizing that what they're all about to see is his death and plenty of other things. "No..... anything but this, I.... I need to get out of here." He said quickly as he found himself being restrained by an invisible force.

Natasha and Jessica could both see that Clark was on the verge of having a full on panic attack and also found that they alongside everyone present in the theater couldn't move, no one could hold their loved ones close for comfort once they all heard the voice of Steppenwolf speak out of the blank screen and everyone saw Darkseid's past as Uxas.

"So begins the End." Said Steppenwolf to seemingly no one as the audience saw that Darkseid had all 3 Mother Boxes in the midst of synchronizing to form The Unity, a form of terraforming to turn worlds into an exact copy of Apokolipis, home of the self proclaimed New Gods.

"For Darkseid." Steppenwolf said as his armor dissolved away to reveal his body as he bowed to someone or something.

"I've never seen a being this strong... maybe one." Said Princess Diana of Themyscira as the scene switched to that of Clark shirtless, at Heroes Park where the statue of him is gone. "He's back."

The audio then changed to that of Alexander Luthor III speaking to someone as the scene shifted to that of Superman screaming in agony in the grasp of some kind of monster with a large gaping hole in his chest where the S was at as everyone visibly saw the soundwaves that his scream caused.

Lila Barton and Cooper Barton both looked absolutely terrified at the scene playing out before them, it did with everyone who's from Earth and the Guardians of the Galaxy as well as the Green Lantern Order. James managed to get his fingers free and snapped his fingers that released everyone's restraints, but was unable to stop the screen.

Peter and Teresa Parker both gracefully leaped from their seats and towards their 'parents' and hugged Clark and Natasha, Peter hugging Natasha, acting like the little boy that Jessica saved during the Black Zero Event and Teresa aka Tess hugged Clark, also acting like the scared little girl who lost her aunt and uncle to Zod's World Engine.

"The bell's been rung. Out in the dark, among the stars. The God is dead." Said Lex Luthor as the scream of Superman traveled across the globe and eventually out amongst the stars themselves. A signal to all worlds that the Earth's Mightiest Hero is dead.

"This World is divided. No Protectors here. No Lanterns. No Kryptonian. It will fall in his name." Steppenwolf said to someone as the next audio to play is that of Darkseid himself.

"I have turned 100,000 Worlds to dust. All of existence shall be MINE." Said Darkseid, his voice sounding like hundreds of thousands of other voices merged into one.

James Romanoff-Kent then used the Multiversal Remote he has to pause this and let everyone leave the theater to get some much needed rest again.

"That wasn't supposed to happen. I think the One Above All wanted us to watch that." James said in a calm voice and watched as his mothers (Nat and Jess) and father all three comfort Peter and Teresa.

James then opened a portal to his father's room as he helped up Tony Stark and took Iron Man to the medical room while his father took care of his siblings.

He just hoped that this was a good idea by the One Above All to show them all his father's death so soon and oh so badly wanted to kill every single villain that caused his family much pain throughout the years.
