The fate of a dying planet.
Superstallion.
The fate of a dying planet.
"Lara!..." Yelled Jor-El. His head quickly turning away from the machine. His long, brown mane swayed in the direction he turned. Jor-El had both fear and concern in his eyes. The planet had mere hours before losing orbit and being consumed by the red sun Rao. Jor-El was the only Kryptponian who knew the signs. He protested that they evacuate the planet months ago, but nopony took him seriously. And now the planet is going to die. "Bring me Kal-El!" He ordered.
A tall, slim mare hurried in. She wore a great, white gown with a high collar the went to her jawline. "Jor-El...Their here to take him." Lara breathed heavily. In her front-hooves was a beautiful foal. His big, blue eyes stared at his father with delite. The foal's coat a dark blue like Jor-El's.
This made the scientist smile. Seeing his offspring happy in a time of death. Like he didn't have a care in the world. But, there was little time. For the army of General Zod would quickly make their way to the door of hope that will take the last, natural born son of Krypton to his survival. The brown maned stallion put the foal inside the ship. Then putting him in red, blue and yellow blankets. "Kelex..." He called.
A small, grey crystal orb then came from the ceiling. "Yes, master?" It replied. Loyal to Jor-El.
"Download my personality into the ship's hard-drive and the history of the Kryptponians..." Jor-El took one last glance at his son as a thin stream of data came from the orb into a small, black key with an 'S' on base. "Good bye, my son." Jor-El put it in a pentagonal shaped hole in the ship. It started to glow and then a bubble went over the ship. It looked like glass and had the symbol of of house El on it. The ship lifted into the air and flew into the vacuum of space.
"What if they make him an outcast? Or kill him?" Said Lara with great concern. Seeing the ship go at fast speeds made tears fall down her face.
"He won't be..." Answered Jor-El. Also looking at the ship, now a small, white dot in the sky. "They are under a yellow sun. It will make him a god among stallions." He walked to a brown, suit of armour in the wall. Jor-El turned and the suit of armour slowly molded onto the stallion. It had a large, brown cape at the collar and a sheath for a sword at the waist. Jor-El faced the door. Ready for what was on the other side.
Laser shots could be heard and the door exploded open with great force. Sending a small shockwave. Causing the brown cape move slightly. Then entered three ponies. On the right a large stallion in black wielding a large gun by the name of Non. On the left was a mare, in the same uniform as the larger stallion, but wielded a thin shortsword. Her name was Ursa. But in the middle was Dru-Zod. His coat a dead grey, his short mane a charcoal colour and he sported a small beard on the edge of his jawline. His armour was similar to Zor-El's, but was a ghastly black and did not have a cape. The general smirked at the sight of his enemy.
"Well, well...Zor-El. Looks like your Doomsday theory was correct after all. But I didn't come here to dawdle...Wheres the colt?" Zod had a look of anticipation to find the missing foal. He slowly pulled out a small pistol. Ready to fire if things went sour.
"He's gone...To a far away world away from the likes of you." Zor-El spat infront of general. Showing a sign of disrespect. He wiped his lip and unsheathed his sword.
The black maned mare, Ursa, took this as a threat and stepped forward, raising her weapon as she did. But Zod stopped this. "You want an honorable duel, Zor-El? I'm sure even a stallion of your stature you still believe in an honorable death."
Zor-El gripped his blade with both hooves and raised it above his head. Ready for battle. But, as Zod was ready to strike. Lara had a small knife and stabbed it into Non's hind-leg. Ursa grinned and threw her shortsword at Lara. It going through her head. Zor-El stopped to see his beloved wife fall to the ground. "Lar- Guh!"
Zod had pierced the stallion's armour. The general's sword in Zor-El's chest. He fell down and Dru looked over the dying body. Pushing the sword deeper in. "I will find him...You hear me? I will FIND him!" He had an evil look on his face. "And then he shall KNEEL before Zod!" These were the last words Zor-El heard before he passed on. Zod stood up in victory of what he had achieved.

Hours later, Zod had been captured for his crimes against Kryptponion law. Him and all his followers had been arrested. They stood infront of the Supreme Counsel and awaited the verdict. "For your terrorism..." Said the eldest stallion. "You shall be BANISHED to the Phantom Zone." The crowd gasped. The phantom zone was a terrible place, even for criminals like Zod. "Any last words?"
"Yes..." Zod spoke up. His chest out to show his confidence. "I will be remembered for what I did today. They conceived a child of natural birth. Is that not against Kryptponian law, my Supreme? I was merely doing what you should have done LONG ago!" Zod raised his voice to show his point. "And this foal is still alive. I would have hunted him down, but you had to stop me. If-...WHEN I escape the phantom zone, I will find him!" He breathed heavily, but steadily. "I should be rewarded. I was there when Kandor was taken away from us in a great shield. I AM the GREATEST General Krypton has ever SEEN!"
"Thats enough, Zod." The eldest raised his head. "You and your lackeys are bow outlaws and will never be welcome again!" He pressed a button which raised a non-transparent bubble, taking then into the infamous Phantom Zone. But, shortly after, it started to heat up. Ponies looked outside and the sun was close enough the vaporize the whole planet. In a matter of seconds. Krypton was gone.
