2 Chapter 2

Something was thrown at me and the force swept me off my feet. I was pushed a few meters back but thanks to my training, I managed to regain my balance and land on my feet.

The result was much less graceful than it sounds since I'm unfamiliar with this body.

Voranis: Ugh, I feel like an ultralisk slammed into me...

?: Did I land on something soft?

Hearing the voice, I pushed the pain to the back of my mind and looked down on my arms.

"It seems that the projectile that hit me was actually...a female Terran. Still...this is a strange getup, not to mention that she doesn't have any wounds despite the impact. Guess humans are more resilient here."

I gently let her down and crouched next to her.

Voranis: Are you unharmed?

Realization hit her as she quickly stood up.

?: AH! I'm really sorry for falling on you. I'm fine thank you but are you ok? You're not hurt...at...all?

Her eyes widened.

?: How are you completely unharmed?

She seemed confused but I didn't get her question.

Voranis: I'm not sure how to answer that. I-

A beastly roar echoed from the direction that this female came from.

?: I have to go, they will need my help!

Voranis: I would also require-

She flew off as I stretched my arm towards her.

Voranis: -some assistance...

"Well...she won't be that hard to find with clothes like that, not to mention that big 'S' on her chest."

Voranis: Wait!! She flew? She had the psionic potential to fly and I didn't feel it?

Wondering if this form limits my psionic powers, I was about to sit down again when another thought came to mind.

"I should also go there. If that roar came from some feral zerg or something it might give me the chance to check this planet's military. Not to mention that woman or someone else who can help."

I began running after the woman while some civilians ran to the opposite direction. I reached the location of the fight and instead on an army, I saw 3 Terrans fighting a large primate.

Besides the female from before, there were also 2 males. One wore similar clothes to the woman and the other had clothes with dark blue and gold colours.

Taking a closer look, the man in gold actually fought against the other 2.

??: Supergirl! Try to hold Booster Gold without hurting him!

Supergirl: Got it!

She flew with immense speed and locked the hands of the gold man behind his back.

?: You cannot stop Groooooodd!!!

The man in blue charged at Grodd but he was met with invisible resistance. I felt his psychic power activating and got an idea.

I didn't want to intervene in the fight. Not in a way that drew too much attention to me since there was no way of knowing how they'll react and I had the perfect thing for this.

I concentrate on his psychic pattern and forced his psionic energies into a Feedback Loop overloading his brain.

I quickly bolted from there while staying hidden as the primate started struggling while holding his brain. Nobody noticed I was there thanks to my Dark Templar training.

"Normally a Feedback Loop would kill the victim in most cases but since I don't know the laws here, I left some release points so he would just drop unconscious. Thanks father!"

I chuckled a bit and started thinking.

"Maybe it's a good thing that the one called Supergirl left before i could ask for help. The technology that I saw here didn't really indicate that they are capable of deep space travel. Perhaps they haven't even made contact with alien races."

Voranis: I should investigate first!

And so begun my walk without an actual destination.

[3rd person]

Some minutes ago.

Superman started looking throughout metropolis for anything unusual since he can't exactly sense psychic energy.

As he was flying around, he heard the sounds of fighting. Flying as quickly as he could without breaking the sound barrier, he arrived at a place close to a park where Supergirl was fighting with Gorilla Grodd and a mind-controlled Booster gold.

"Looks like I found what I was looking for!" He thought and joined the fight against the psychic gorilla.

During the battle, an attack from Grodd sent Supergirl flying. Superman wanted to catch her but was currently busy tanking a beam attack from Booster Gold.

Still, he wasn't worried since it would take a lot more than that to keep his cousin down.

Just like he thought, Supergirl rejoined the fight but the strangest thing happened. Grodd started screaming while holding his head and a few seconds later he was out cold.

Supergirl flew next to her cousin followed by Booster Gold.

Supergirl: What happened?

Superman: I don't know! One moment he was fighting and the next he dropped unconscious.

Booster Gold: Maybe he overloaded trying to control this beautiful mind!

Gold said confidently while pointing at himself with his mind.

Supergirl: Ugh...says the guy that was easily mind-controlled...

Superman: Now now Kara, this could happened to anyone.

Superman being who he is, tried to defuse the situation.

Booster Gold stayed silent and Supergirl looked at him and sighed.

Supergirl: I guess you're right. Anyway, I'll take my leave, take care!

With that she left towards the park. The dichromatic eyes of the guy she met there made a strong impression on her so she went to look for him. But, try as she might, he was already gone.

Back with Superman.

He contacted Martian Manhunter to inform him of the success of the mission as well as the enigmatic conclusion.

Superman: Superman to Watchtower! I found the psionic signature, it was Gorilla Grodd.

After a few seconds of silence, J'onn answered back.

J'onn J'onzz: It's not possible. Grodd doesn't have the potential for that. Not to mention the signature doesn't match.

Superman sighed.

Superman: Then we might have a problem on our hands down the road. Hope nothing bad happens.
