Chapter 138 - Chapter 137: Talk With Shield

"So, let me get this straight, Zara-Al; Zod, who is orbiting Earth somewhere, wants to use this codex of life that you apparently have, and then they will terraform Earth, which in turn, will kill every creature except you and a few lucky mutants, and you're saying, you're the only one who can stop them?" Asked Fury with a permanent scowl as he sat opposite of Pharaoh while suspiciously looking through the square opening, which was previously where the one-way mirror resided.

"My name is actually Pharaoh; Mr. Fury, or Director Fury, whichever one you prefer. And no, I'm not saying I'm the only one who can stop them, but I have no confidence you or any other organization can; none of you guys understand the amount of strength at my disposal, nor do you understand the sheer destructive might I'm capable of; not even I truly know, as it's been years since I've ever been required to use all of my strength." Remarked Pharaoh seriously with a shake of his head, sitting on the metal chair in the interrogation room while Sara quietly sat beside him, holding his hand.

"I wouldn't have believed you if you said you're the only one who could stop them, though I still don't trust you." Said Fury as he leaned forward and squinted his eyes, looking at Pharaoh's face, searching for any offputting facial expression, something Romanoff was doing as well.

"Well, Mr. Fury, regarding not trusting me, I don't really know what to say; I'm a 16-year-old alien who likes to play around, hang out with friends, ogle at women, play video games, sleep with Sara, etc. I'm pretty sure I behave just like any normal kid, and what normal kid would joke around when the entire world was at stake?" Stated Pharaoh lightly as he stared at Fury before glancing at the three others while Sara pinched his hand, which he promptly ignored.

"Sounds just normal kid to me." Muttered Barton quietly with a nod while looking at Pharaoh before glancing at Romanoff, who shook her head and sighed.

"How do we know this isn't all a ploy so you could catch us off guard before attacking us?" Asked Fury with a raised eyebrow as he eyed Pharaoh, who rolled his eyes.

"You don't nigga; even if I said it's not, you wouldn't really believe me; besides, it's not like you have a choice; either way, I'm turning myself in whether it's with your assistance or not." Declared Pharaoh solemnly as he glanced at the four and looked at Sara, who smiled, before he shifted his focus towards the door, which was opened, followed by Coulson entering.

"That was quick; I don't even think it's been ten minutes since I've arrived." Remarked Pharaoh, whistling as he glanced at Coulson, who was holding a file containing all of Pharaoh's information.

"Here you are, Sir; everything I could find on Zara-Al is in this file, though as you can tell, it's not much." Said Coulson respectfully as he handed Fury the file before sitting down on the left side of Fury, directly beside Maria.

Now that Fury had a file on me, he started reading it in silence, which caused the atmosphere to turn a little awkward as we were now just staring at each other, though thankfully, Sara broke the atmosphere.

"Tut, do you have to turn yourself in? I don't know exactly how strong you are, but there are three Kryptoninans, can you handle fighting three?" Asked Sara lightly in concern as she tightly held Pharaoh's hand while looking up at him, causing him to smile wryly.

"Yes, I do; I've already flown around the Earth numerous times in search of their spaceship before coming here, but their ship's concealing capability allows them to hide from even my eyes, and since it's space, every other one of my senses is pretty much useless. So, unless I intend to fly around, hoping I just happen to slam into their ship, I won't be finding them, not with 19 hours, I won't." Replied Pharaoh as he looked deeply into Sara's bright green eyes while grabbing her other hand, trying to calm her, though it was doing the opposite.

"And whether I can beat them; honestly, if they're just as strong as me, even if I can defeat them, which I don't think I could as they're hardened veterans, it won't be without the destruction of everything within at least a country range of our battle. That is why I so badly wished to fight them in space; that way, I could fight them without needing to hold back and worry about the damage my punches would do to the surrounding Earth. All of that is merely an estimate; I've got very little on how much destruction a battle using my full strength will actually be; at 12, I nearly destroyed the X-Mansion, which was still with me holding back, though now? I wouldn't be surprised if the shockwaves from my attacks could level an entire city." Added Pharaoh as he tightly held Sara's hands in his own, trying his best to calm her worries down while the five shield agents intently listened, even Fury, who was still reading quietly.

"I know you're trying to calm me, but couldn't you lie? I don't feel happy knowing this could very well lead to your death." Stated Sarah seriously with a forced smile, prompting Tut to passionately kiss her, earning a whistle from Barton, only to be hit on the chest by Romanoff.

"Well, what do you want me to say? I've lied to you before, but I don't wish to lie to you about something so serious; it seems shallow. Besides, I'm definitely not dying until I get a taste of your ass again; I'm utterly starving." Remarked Pharaoh with a raised eyebrow before shaking his head and leaning forward, quietly whispering the last part into her ear; unfortunately for Sara, the five trained Shield agents heard everything, though luckily, they at least had the decency to act like they heard nothing.

"Shh, quiet; I don't need everyone to know about our sex life!" Stated Sara angrily as she eyed Pharaoh before whispering into his ear, only for her to blush slightly while turning slightly bashful.

"W-When everything is over, I-I'll make sure to clear my schedule so we can do it; I-I'll even wear that outfit you love so much." Added Sara softly, speaking in almost a whisper with a slightly blushed face.

Hearing Sara, I was utterly taken aback by her declaration; if she was truly speaking about my favorite outfit, then I was in for the time of my life.

"You're talking about the bunny one, right?" Asked Pharaoh gently as he looked at Sara, whose blush only became more prominent while she nodded.

'FUCK YES!' Thought Pharaoh with an eager expression as he clenched his fists in pure excitement before, only for someone else to open their mouths.

"Mind telling us your powers or abilities? If what you said is true, then we'll be facing essentially three versions of you; having a better understanding of your species would be very helpful in our fight for survival." Asked Maria seriously as she glanced at Fury, who was still reading, before looking at Tut, who quickly composed himself with a cough.

Now, I wasn't stupid; her sole intention wasn't to learn about the three Kryptonians; it was also to learn about me, but I couldn't be mad; I was in a unique situation, after all.

"Yeah, just good luck with the precautionary measures; you'll need it in case I ever decide to go rogue." Remarked Pharaoh with a slight smirk, though his words didn't get any reaction from the five, causing him to grumble under his breath.

"Anyways, I've got enhanced strength, durability, speed, intellect, senses, heat vision, ice breath, flight, and Aura." Stated Pharaoh, as he listed all of his current powers, resulting in him holding up nine fingers while the large number slightly took aback everyone else.

"Mind giving us a demonstration so we can fully understand what to expect?" Asked Maria as she jotted down in her notebook, while Pharaoh rolled his eyes before standing up.

I only bothered to show the final four abilities since the others were as straight as can be; facing the wall behind me, I blasted one half of the wall with my heat vision, quickly melting it, before shifting to the other half, which I blew freezing cold air at, causing it to be quickly covered in frost while the entire room swiftly began to drop in temperature. Showcasing flight was easy; I simply flew around the small room a little before sitting back down and resting my hand on Sara, covering her with my aura.

"Now for my aura, shoot Sara." Remarked Pharaoh with a slight smirk while Sara crossed her arms and rolled her eyes, though other than that, she seemed indifferent.

Shield wasn't comprised of crazy killers as they didn't immediately shoot at Sara and just gave us skeptical looks, but after my reassurance that nothing was going to happen, Romanoff pulled her gun and shot Sara; just like with my body, the bullet crumpled beneath Sara's skin, or I should actually say, beneath my aura covering her.

"My aura gives someone or something the same level of durability as myself." Added Pharaoh as he removed his hand from Sara before suddenly snatching a bullet out of the air, which was heading right for her.

"Damn, relax, Romanoff." Said Tut as he glanced at Romanoff before tossing the bullet she shot back to her, causing her to catch it awkwardly.

Now, before y'all start asking why he revealed his powers, they were going to be exposed eventually; also, even if they know, what the hell are they supposed to do in the first place? He's no mutant, and the existence of Kryptonite isn't known to them as of it.
