The city of Star City looked deserted. The citizens had either fled or had been turned into black lanterns. At the heart of the city was the entity known as Nekron. Nekron used the city as his base as his black lanterns ravaged the Earth.

The black lanterns increased their numbers each day and the power levels of the black lantern battery increased with each person that died.

Soon Nekron would have enough power to obliterate all life on this planet.

Hyperion stood outside the LexCorp manufacturing plant just outside Metropolis. Fire with the heat of the sun behind it came to his hands and he threw it toward the chemical storage tanks.

A few moments later explosions filled the cool autumn air.

Aello, Celaeno, and Ocypete three harpies swooped down into Metropolis and circled the top of the Daily Planet a few times before heading down to the streets. They swooped down and grabbed a citizen before taking them up to a roof top to torture them a bit.

After a lunch with J'anna and a promise that she would keep her updated on what was going on with her, Alura had set off for Metropolis.  It was... smaller than it had been would be in her time, but it was still in some way recognizable as the same City of Tomorrow it had always been.  It was also home to a portion of her family, such as it was, on Earth.

She hoped dearly to avoid her mother.  Though Kara Zor-El had spent enough time in the future to have had a hand in raising her daughter, a battle with the Time Trapper had returned her to the past, physically and mentally the same as when she had first been trapped in the 31st century.  She would have no memory or even any sign that she had ever left this time period.  Alura could no bear to face her.

She hovered above the city, briefly scanning it with her various forms of super-vision, while she tried to decide how best to get along of Kal-El or another family member.

Alura's head was spinning, reeling.  Her sense of direction and position, usually almost flawless, was currently failing her.  Her immediate memory was hazy too.  She remembered fighting... someone, something, but the details were fuzzy.  Troubling, that.  Her 12th level intellect gave her a flawless recall.  How could she not remember what had happened to her?

There was also, it seemed to be, the matter of reentry.  She was falling, had already reached terminal velocity. She quickly calculated her relative position in the sky compared to her rate of falling and deduced that even if she could regain completely control of her faculties--something that currently seemed to be eluding her--she would not be able to stop in time.


BOOM!

The Kryptonian/Coluan hero hit the pavement in Star City hard, like a meteor strike.
