THE BATTLE CONTINUES

[Space]

Faora was the only one alive. She was surrounded and was barely holding on.

"Open fire!" Elana yelled as everyone opened fire at that Kryptonian. Faora's body was already on the brink of breaking down due to the nanites' corrosion. She couldn't withstand anymore. With her last breath, she used her heat vision one last time. She put all her focus on it. The red beams shot from her eyes, splitting Selina's ship in half, all the way to destroying the second carrier, before her cells withered away, leaving behind a pile of dust.

"Selina!" Elana screamed as she got out of her ship and flew toward the burning pile of scrap metal.

Pamela, Oliver, and Mr. Freeze got out of their ships and looked at the destroyed wreckage.

"There they are!" Mr. Freeze flew toward the wreckage as he caught a glimpse of Selina and Diana floating among the wreckage. He checked the life signs on his visor, "Quick, we have to pull them out," he instructed the others. He stopped and used the cryo gun to freeze the flaming metal.

Oliver and Pamela rushed in and pulled out the two unconscious women.

"Thank God," Oliver signed in relief, "The suit held on." He carefully picked Diana up.

"Selina," Pamela looked at her friend's burnt suit, "Hang in there. Hang on."

The AI in their suits began to absorb the nanites from the remaining bots and began to repair their suits. Luckily, Selina and Diana were just unconscious. They took on the full frontal attack of both heat vision and the explosion together and survived it with just little damage.

Oliver took Diana to his ship while Pamela took Selina to hers. Mr. Freeze watched them leave as he checked the surroundings for other Kryptonians. But there was no one left for them to fight anymore. The rest is up to Bruce and their two new allies. He and Elana flew back into their ships.

"Diana's condition looks bad," Oliver said in the comms as he scanned her body, "Broken bones, spinal injury, internal bleeding and her broken ribs pierced her lung. She needs immediate treatment." Diana pushed herself too much during the fight. Even though she was wearing her old armor under the nano-suit, Zod's attack got her badly, and now the explosion. It was too much for her body and the nanites to endure.

"Ok. Oliver and Pamela use the teleportation charge and go back to Earth. We can't risk their life," Elana took control of the situation.

"Alright, you all, be careful," Pamela quickly activated the emergency teleportation charges. Oliver did the same. Instantly, their ships disappeared with a flash of lightning.

"You are going to tell Bruce?" Mr. Freeze looked at Elana.

"You want me to tell him that Selina and Diana got injured? Hell No." Elana replied immediately, "Do you want him to lose focus at a crucial time?"

Mr. Freeze nodded, "That's for the better."

Superman was fighting four Kryptonians alone in the space. Their speed was too fast for the naked eye, but the shockwaves generated from their battle could be felt miles away.

Elana clenched her fists as she watched the battle unfold, feeling so helplessly weak. She knew they were strong, but this level of battle was beyond her wildest imagination. Even if she wanted to help Bruce, at her level, she'd just be a burden. "We are pulling out," She told Mr. Freeze through the comms, "We will just get in their way if we stay here anymore."

Mr. Freeze agreed as they activated the teleportation charges.

'Be careful, Bruce,' She prayed internally before disappearing with Mr. Freeze with a flash of lightning.

Superman dodged a punch as he punched the Kryptonian back. Using his super-speed, he rushed toward another one and smashed him into space. His punches were getting faster and stronger by the second. His mind was calm as ever as he was in total control of himself. He caught the third one who was flying toward him and smashed him into space as well.

[Zingg!] The fourth one rushed in with her heat vision blazing, aiming at Superman's head. Superman turned around and countered with his own heat vision. Their red beams collided and produced a huge amount of heat. The sound of the collision resonated throughout the area. Superman poured more power into his beam, slowly pushing the Kryptonian back. Suddenly he rushed forward and grabbed the Kryptonian by her neck, before smashing her into space like the other three.

He flew toward them.

The four fighters regained their balance and fought back. Even though Superman was strong, he didn't have much battle experience. Fighting four Kryptonians was still a challenge for him. He dodged their attacks as he counterattacked when he found an opening.

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

A flurry of punches and kicks flew through the space, faster than light itself. Superman's fist landed on the first fighter's chest, sending him flying hundreds of meters away. The Kryptonian coughed blood as she was sent flying backward. Superman's kick hit the second one right in the face, but he raised his right arm to counter his kick as the woman fighter punched him hard, sending him crashing down on Mars.

[Booom!] Superman crashed into Mars' surface, creating a huge crater upon impact.

Kara flew down, "You doing alright?" She asked Superman.

"Yes, I am fine," Superman stood up and wiped the blood off his mouth as he looked up at the four Kryptonians who were waiting for him to come up. "What about you?" He asked her noticing the two beaten-up brutes who were barely flying.

"Don't worry about me, I'm almost done," Kara flew off toward the brutes as they ran away scared.

Superman nodded and flew up toward his targets.

Kara chased the brutes as they entered Jupiter's atmosphere. She rushed toward them and punched one of them, sending him flying deep into the gas planet. "Damn it! Slippery bastards." She took a deep breath and used her ice breath on the other one. The freezing air froze him solid before her hard punch shattered him into pieces.

She turned around and saw Superman fighting those four Kryptonians again.

"Alright," Kara flew toward Superman, "Let's finish this."

Superman dodged a punch and counterattacked with a punch of his own. Kara joined the battle as she punched one of the Kryptonians away, before using her heat vision against another one.

"I'll take on the bitch and the tall one," She told Superman as she rushed toward her targets and punched them away, separating them.

Superman rushed toward the other two and engaged them in combat.

Kara blocked a punch as she kicked the female fighter back. "Don't you dare die easily," She rushed in. The male fighter threw a punch, but Kara used her heat vision to rip through his arm.

"GAAAAHH!" He screamed in pain.

Kara took the opportunity and used her heat vision again, targeting his open mouth. Two red beams pierced through his armored mask and entered his mouth, then came out of the other way, piercing through his neck. She flew in and grabbed his head and continued to use her heat vision, trying to burn his entire skull.

The female fighter flew in and punched Kara, but she caught it with her left hand and twisted it, without even looking at her as she continued to use her heat vision on his skull. The male fighter's brain was already burned, and now his armor was melting. Kara kicked his dead body away then turned her head and glared at the female fighter, "You're next."

"Arrgh!" The female Kryptonian roared as she attacked Kara with her other hand, but Kara used her left hand to grab it and twist it again, this time with more force.

"What's wrong?" Kara asked with a smile, "Aren't you guys supposed to be veterans? Don't tell me that years of isolation rusted your body."

"Damn you, Kara Zor-L. Why fight for those humans? Together we could have created a new Krypton and ruled over them. We could have got our old glory back. The strongest race in the universe," The female fighter yelled in rage.

"Old glory?" Kara frowned as she head-butted the woman, "We lost everything. Had your General supported us, Krypton wouldn't have been doomed. We could have always moved to that isolated planet and terraformed without hurting anyone. But what did your general do? He chose to take over Krypton..." She head-butted her again, "...and now, we are the last of our kind." She head-butted her for the third time, "Your General is responsible for the extinction of our race." Kara ripped apart the female fighter's arms, threw them in space, and then grabbed her head and slammed it on her knees, shattering her mask and teeth.

[Zinggg!] Kara didn't give her time to recover and used her heat vision to pierce through her head.

The female fighter's body trembled and dropped dead.

Kara took a deep breath as she looked at the dead bodies around her. She felt a sense of sadness wash over her. Even though she was never really close to any of them, they were still Kryptonians, after all.

Kara was captured by humans and suffered immense torture at their hands. She hated the humans. But as she began to remember her old memories and her parent's voices and their teachings when she was lost in space inside her ship, she began to realize that humans were just like them.

Good and evil existed in all races.

The humans who tortured her were bad people, but so were her race. Kryptonians terraformed countless planets one after the other, killed countless life forms, and imprisoned millions of slaves. But then some didn't share the same vision as the council and were against unnecessary mining and killings, so they were killed or imprisoned by the council. They were good people, just like Bruce and Talia, who rescued her from the bad people and the ones who are now fighting for their home planet.

'Home,' Kara sighed as she looked at Earth, which was so far away.
