[M'arzz:A few minutes after J'onn disappeared]
Flying in space above the red planet, three Martian Bio-ships were investigating the strange energy epicenter that their sensors detected after J'onn J'onnes' disappearance.
"What have we discovered so far?" Captain M'arzz asked his subordinates while they were on the ship.
"Our sensors indicate that the epicenter was at that specific point, sir, but they can no longer track the source but the data points to a very old form of energy." A Martian informed his superior.
"Any sign of J'onnes' mental signature?" M'arzz asked once more.
"Nothing yet sir." Another Marcian with eyes glowing green responded.
M'arzz grumbled, this wasn't good, J'onn was one of the strongest telepaths and with a mental signature that was very easy to detect if he wasn't hiding it, the fact that they weren't finding it shows that something very bad could have happened .
'Where are you J'onnes.' M'arzz thought.
"Sir perhaps....should we assume the worst?" The Martian responsible for the search for J'onn asked.
"No, we should still look, we won't make any decision until we are one hundred percent sure of it, the chaos that the possibility of him being dead could be uncontrollable" M'arzz said seriously and everyone nodded.
They all knew that J'onn was a deterrent, a guarantee of safety for all castes, the fact that perhaps M'arzz's greatest hero might no longer be there to protect them...they didn't even want to imagine what this could lead to.
And that's why they continued monitoring and investigating, any clue would be extremely valuable, because if they didn't find anything they couldn't even imagine the chaos that would follow.
Little did they know that their missing person was closer than they could imagine, two weeks away in their bio-ships a very short time for them.

[Pegasus Project Base: Right now]
J'onn POV:
Argh...my head is killing me...I've never felt anything like this, what happened? Where am I? what place is this?
Looking around I can tell that it is a type of laboratory, but it was covered in smoke, little by little I got up and was able to take a better look, there were many somewhat primitive machines that were connected to cables that continued until...Santa Ma' ayava'ana!!
A shining blue cube, and I recognized it, one of the treasures of the sacred hall of the God King Odin of the world known as Asgard, the Tesseract!! but how?
"It appears your data has failed." A voice said from behind me.
"First time for everything." Another voice said and I turned to see.
Two humans, one with light skin and a type of brown hair, and a dark-skinned human with some kind of accessory covering his right eyeball. Humans mean I was on Earth but how?
That's when I remembered the blue rift probably generated by the Tesseract but it doesn't make sense, why would an Infinity Stone be on Earth? And not in the halls of Odin being protected? Earth was not a safe place with humans still being fairly primitive.
"Motherfucker!!" The dark-skinned human shouted as he pointed some sort of gun at me and fired lead-based projects.
'Funny , they didn't have that the last time I came.' I think as I automate my density making the projectiles pass through me.
"Nick wait stop!!"
The other human shouted in a language I didn't understand, it was different from the language humans spoke in the past, well let's sort it out.
My eyes glow green as the humans raise their hands to their heads, obviously in discomfort as I take in some basic information.
And what I caught is not good at all, while they are disoriented I change my density and fly out of here, faster than these humans could see I fled their underground base and headed towards the most isolated place I could imagine .
[Some hours later]
I have been flying for some time until I stopped in the middle of a desert, it was very different from M'arzz, the desert was cold and the wind was very fresh, I had forgotten how this planet has a vivid atmosphere, but the air is a little more contaminated than a few centuries.
'M'arzz spends two weeks traveling in a Bio-ship, I would take at least three weeks at my maximum speed but I can only stay in a vacuum for five days without suffering consequences.' I think as I sit down, I bring my hand to my communicator in the symbol on my chest.
"This is officer M'hontrr class 01 J'onn J'onnes from Ma'aleca'andra, I inform you that the anomaly that was detected is due to the interference of an infinity stone, I am currently on planet Earth, if you can listen to me and respond." I remove my hand from my communicator and wait.
Two hours later I sigh in disappointment.
"The distance to the signal is very large, I don't even know if it would be possible for the signal to remain for so long, all I can do is wait and stay hidden." I say as I get up.
I've been to Earth before, I blended in among their ranks, I can do it again, if I remember correctly they scare easily, maybe I should change my appearance.
Little by little my physical shape changes, my height decreases, my skin changes color, something similar to fur grows on my face and my Martian costume changes to an Earth costume similar to what the black human was wearing.
Where before my Martian appearance was, now was a dark-skinned human with a mustache and short hair, brown eyes and wearing the costume that you see that armed human was wearing.
'Now I need to blend in, maybe there's a city nearby.' I thought as I took off.
It took me a few hours to find a bright city.
'Las Vegas?' Read the huge sign.
Maybe everything will work out.

[Project Pegasus Base: A few minutes after J'onn's escape]
"So you're telling me that a two-meter-tall green individual simply appeared in a blue flash that the Tesseract emitted, that same flash destroyed millions of dollars worth of equipment and on top of that this individual fled taking over S.H.I.E.L.D's best kept secret? " A middle-aged woman asked the two men who saw everything.
Nick and Howard just looked at the woman
"Is that how you summed it up Peggy?" Howard replied smiling while keeping a bag of ice on his head.
"You're F**ked in the head Howard!! I guess I can present this to the council?!" Peggy Carter, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D and founding member shouted at the resident genius.
Nick just sighed as he lit a cigar.
"With all due respect ma'am, I was there too and I know what I see, I personally fired five shots at the thing but they passed by like a ghost, S.H.I.E.L.D has dealt with extraordinary things before, why not assume it's just more one?" Nick asked his superior.
"Why is this different from Object 324 Nick, we are talking about a living individual and not a metal band." Peggy replied as she rubbed her eyes.
The whole situation was shit, especially for her and Howard, who were part of S.H.I.E.L.D's top brass and had to explain themselves to the world leaders who financed the organization.
Having a supposed alien that flies, reads minds and can apparently dodge bullets like a ghost running around and worse than that they had no idea where it could go was not a good report.
"Relax Peggy, I'll have my people track the guy, he probably couldn't have gone very far, it's not like we could lose a seven foot green monster right?" Howard said confidently.
"Do you really want to bet that thing doesn't have a way to hide?" Nick asked raising an eyebrow.
"Well he can try, but the world is so small these days, I bet it won't even take two weeks." Howard said confidently.
The two secret agents looked at each other, not so confident.

[Ma'aleca'andra/M'hontrr Base: Two years after J'onn J'onnes' disappearance]
The M'hontrr officers crossed all corners of their ancestral base, but in the communications sector a curious message reached their equipment.
*Zzzzbb J'onn J'onnes zzzzbzzb Infinity Stone Zzzzzzxxx Earth*
This message broken by the time and distance it covered was enough to overturn the entire M'hontrr base, but this message arrived at another point on the planet, more specifically in the icy and red deserts of M'arzz.
A hooded figure watched the sandstorms from the top of a mountain, it was a green Martian, behind him a flying animal from M'arzz landed, only to become another green Martian who knelt down for cuteness.
"Ma'alefa'ak!! May the moon of Ya'lara'ko shine upon you." The kneeling Marciano announced himself.
"Speak quickly." Ma'alefa'ak said his voice thick.
"Shocking news, from our M'hontrr contacts." Marciano said, raising his head.
"AND?" Ma'alefa'ak inquired.
"J'onn J'onnes lives!!" The green Martian shouted urgently, but he would have trembled with fear if he had seen the smile Ma'alefa'ak was giving.
"Oh! Now that's something to think about isn't it?" He said as he stood up, revealing his body in an old and unkempt M'hontrr suit, and a huge scar in the middle of his face.
