The night was pretty lively as everyone caught glimpse of the shooting star that was heading towards the ocean. A few managed to snap a few pictures before the expected crash just several miles away from the city.
After the crash, the people would return to what they were doing as the meteorite was probably already halfway down to the bottom of the ocean by now.
However, two people still held an interest in said meteorite and traveled to the area where the ocean met the city and dived straight in.
The light of the supposed meteorite seemed to be that a neon blue that blinked over and over again.
After several seconds of feeling the cold water against his skin, Ethan soon snapped out of his sudden urge and instead grew curious about it.
'...Is there any way to control these urges?' Ethan asked Tydris as he swam downward towards the light. He'd use his incredible strength to quickly propel himself down into the ocean's depth and with his organs being that of dragon's meant that he could hold his breath for quite some time before needing air.
("It's one of our quirks, unfortunately, but me being a god I could control them better than any other dragon. But of course for the main part why should I keep them in check? I'll get what I want...but it doesn't mean that I'll want everything I lay my eyes on.")
He frowned at this as perhaps he was looking at this all wrong, and maybe he shouldn't worry about controlling his urges. Perhaps if he lets it control him then he'll never have doubts again, and he'll always know what he wanted to do...
'...But why does it feel like doing so...I'll lose something important?... Why was a human like me chosen in the first place?... He must have known that I'd be like this right? Then...No, no time to contemplate my entire existence right now. Just do what you came to do and get out of here."
After a few minutes of swimming, Ethan had reached pretty far away from the city at this point, and with a closer examination of the meteorite, he noticed that it wasn't a meteorite at all!
It looked like some alien vessel fused with an asteroid by unknown means.
Seeing the vessel, Ethan would think back to anytime this sort of thing happened in the DC Universe, and the only thing he could remember is when Superman arrived on the planet.
However, Superman was already on the planet and he didn't see a giant 'S' anywhere from what he could see.
The windshield of the cockpit was so foggy he couldn't see anyone until he touched which activated some type of mechanism which turned on a backlight, allowing one to look inside.
And there, sleeping peacefully with a strange contraption connected to them was a gorgeous blonde-haired woman. If Harley's body was one of an acrobat then hers was one of an athlete as Ethan could see her well-developed muscles and abs.
'Supergirl?! Wait...no she's wearing white one piece? Who was that again?..'
>>>><<<<
Diana witnessed the meteorite fall into the ocean, and instead of going into the ocean she simply flew to the area it fell.
"Nothing out of the ordinary yet...I'd have to go underwater to check it out. I'd really like it if I didn't have to-"
*BOOM*
Diana frowned after hearing a noise and quickly dives down into the cold ocean water.
At first, she didn't see anything out of the ordinary, but then a bright blue light reached her eyes, forcing her to shield them.
'What is that?..' She thought as the light was rapidly moving upward and soon she could make out where the light was coming from.
It was an alien ship or to be more specific it was an alien space pod. She thought it looked similar to the one Superman came in.
'But who is-"
Before she could even gather her thoughts the pod zoomed past her, and with closer examination, she could see someone was pushing it.
'Someone else was down here?!' She thought as she swam after the moving pod.
>>>>Several Minutes Earlier<<<<
'Wait...isn't this Power Girl?' Ethan thought as he gazed at the woman's face. It was almost surreal seeing it in real life instead of through a comic book or pictures.
Power Girl or Kara Zor-EL was a prime example of a strong beautiful woman capable of doing extraordinary things. Her voluptuous body slightly intimidates regular men, but there was still was a certain allure that is most likely because of her Kryptonian genes.
Looking at this stunning woman, Ethan started to feel a certain urge of claiming this woman as his own. She had the potential to be just as strong as Superman, and possess a genius-level intellect that would even put the greatest minds to shame.
And he wanted her...
However, there was a problem as she was nothing like Harley nor Raven who became acquainted with him under certain situations.
As soon as she is released from this pod she'll be in a state of hysteria because unlike Supergirl who was already 13 before being sent off after Superman, Power girl was sent off as a baby.
Either way, she won't be easily subdued if he wished to obtain her.
'How...I-' Ethan's thoughts were halted when he sensed something familiar nearby which also knocked him out of his urges.
He had learned once he interacted with someone in close quarters, his senses could tell if said person was in his range. Ethan figured it out after he interacted with Raven and any time she teleported away onto the roof, he could still tell that she was near.
Tyrdris said with practice he could increase this range among other things that he learned during that week.
'It's Diana...She must have been told to investigate.' He thought before gazing back at Kara and feeling a certain longing as the pod continued to sink further into the ocean's abyss.
'Fuck...' Ethan thought, raising his fist and bringing it back down rapidly.
*BOOM* His punch broke the pod out of the rock before quickly swimming underneath it to push it out to the surface.
>>>><<<<
Diana could barely see who was moving the ship, but it was obviously someone who possessed strength and she quickly swam after them.
Ethan glanced downward at Diana,'It's not like I hate you, but I'd really like it if you weren't in my way.' he thought as he used the remaining of his breath to draw upon the innate ability of a golden dragon which is to breathe all elements.
'Wind!.' Ethan used his breathe attack, expelling gale force winds in one direction, letting him move faster towards the surface while simultaneously forcing Diana deeper into the water.
Once he was out of breath he was already making his exit out of the ocean with the pod in hand.
It was unknown how it happened, but as soon as they were at the surface the pod started to open letting out a small gust of cold air. Ethan who was witnessing this climbed up onto the pod which caused Kara to stir from her slumber.
Soon, her eyes would open, revealing a beautiful blue hue that would make people be entranced by it
"Huh...?" Kara groaned, rubbing her head as her body was slowly waking up after being in rest for so many years.
"Kara?"
"Who?" The woman speaks in another language that Ethan could only assume for it to be Kryptonian, but she heard her name being called. Once she gathered her bearings, she'd make out a blonde-haired man standing above her.
She thought the man to be quite handsome, but then noticing his red eyes, she started to feel danger.
"Who are you?!" Kara shouts in Kryptonian as she stands up in her pod. She's been exposed to a few rays of light during her travel to earth, so she had enough to express a well known trait belonging to her race.
Kara quickly throws a right hook towards Ethan's head one could hear the wind whistle as her fist approached him.
*Boom!* The punch ended up being stopped by Ethan's left hand, producing a shockwave that sent water in all directions.
Even though Ethan managed to block it, he could still feel considerable pain, and knowing that Kara wasn't even at her peak sent shivers down his spine.
Not from fear, but from excitement!
After Ethan blocked her attack, Kara tried to pull away from him, but he wouldn't budge.
"Let go!!" Kara growled in her language as her eyes started to glow red, and Ethan knew she was about to use her heat ray vision.
Although he figures he could take it, Ethan instead moved his head out the way, letting the ray shoot harmlessly by him until it crashed into the ocean, evaporating the water on contact.
Soon after this happens, the water near them started to move and Ethan immediately knew it was Diana finally making her exit.
"Ethan!! Stay your hand!" Diana shouted as she shot into the air. As soon as she was hit by his breath attack earlier, she knew that it was from him even though it wasn't the golden fire she experienced earlier.
"I'm just about to make my exit." Ethan grinned as he does something no one thought he'd ever do and kissed her pillowy lips, catching the Kryptonian off guard.
Her body started to warm up from the kiss as a strange wave of energy flowed through her body, making her feel quite comfortable that she'd even let out a groan.
Kara's cheeks would flush with red, but then she immediately growls sending another punch towards him to which he returns with his own.
*Boom!* Their fists collided, producing another shockwave that was stronger than the first, causing the ship underneath them to have several cracks, luckily it was expertly made.
"How dare you!?" Kara said through her gritted teeth as the two have a power struggle with Ethan winning.
Seeing this, Ethan would start to laugh as if he was enjoying this situation. However, Diana couldn't let him fight someone right in front of her especially when seeing them made her think of Superman.
'Is it another Kryptonian?...No matter...He comes first!!' She thought as she dived down towards them while grabbing hold of her lasso.
This time she'll capture Ethan!
Diana then tossed the lasso at Ethan, hoping to catch his arm, but then the unthinkable happens.
The pod disappears right from underneath them, causing Diana to miss.
"What?!"
*Splash!* Ethan had used his item storage ring to take the ship as it was what he wanted in the first place right?
After the two fell in the water his eyes never left Kara's which made the Kryptonian confused.
'Is he trying to court me?' Kara thought, but of course, there was no way she'll let someone like that be in a relationship with her.
"I know you don't understand what I'm saying, but once you are stronger. COME FIGHT ME!" Ethan said, grabbing both of Kara's arms and spinning her around before letting her go towards the incoming Diana.
*Bam!* The impact was enough to knock the wind out of each other, but Diana quickly recovers to keep herself in the sky while holding the weakened Kara.
"Her name is is Kara Zor-L and she's the cousin of Superman!" Ethan shouted before taking a deep breath and diving back down into the water to escape.
"Wait! Get back here! DAMN!" Diana cursed as after hearing that information she couldn't just toss this woman aside when knowing she is related to Clark. However, before she knew it Ethan was gone and there was a half-conscious Kryptonian in her arms.
>>>><<<<
It took nearly twenty minutes for Ethan to swim back to Gotham, however, he'd swim until he found a perfect spot to exit without any people around.
As soon as he touched land he'd switch out of his clothes into casual with a ball cap that said 'It is what it is'.
He didn't know where he was, but one friendly chat with a guy told him he was in the Bowery which was not that far from where he needed to go.
When no one was looking, Ethan leaped into the skies, landing on top of a tall building as he pulled out his phone from the storage ring.
There were several missed calls from Pamela while the rest were from Harley. After he received a phone from Wizard they decided to get their own just to keep in contact with him as talking with their minds only work when they are in close proximity.
*Ring Ring* It was Harley calling him and so he picked up.
"Honeybun! Are you coming back now? I miss you." The villainess pouted over the phone.
Ethan chuckled, "It will be another hour or so."
"Booo!! Say what's got you in a good mood? You seemed a bit down before you left." Harley asked.
"Ah, just some good things happened, and after I pick up this project we're out of here. How bout a nice vacation?" He smiled.
"That would be great!... But now I'm really curious about your change in mood...It's not a woman is it?"
>>>><<<<
(A/N: Alright let me just say thanks for the overflowing support it made it a treat for me to keep on writing this fan fiction. I'm also gonna say that the long intro is over as people already noticed that not a lot happened and it's pretty much MC reacting to events but now this marks the transition as he will go out to find strength while interacting with more heroes. While introducing the first major villain that won't die in 3 chapters (Sorry Joker or am I? Or is he really dead? Who knows!))
Also I established this when answering someones question. Even if I introduced a girl it doesn't mean she'll be a harem member. Think it will keep things interesting to keep people guessing! hehe xD But its pretty obvious here.
