Ten Worlds Kon Version
World One Hour Five

He set on the stairs doing his best to control the sobs that kept pouring out of him. He wished he’d never been cloned. The world would be so much better off without him. He kept replaying everything he’d done to Cassie’ over the years and knowing she finally hated him like he deserved. He could still hear her telling him to just leave that she didn’t want to see him anymore.

He knew he deserved it not just for beating her half to death under Luthor’s control but for all the crap he’d done behind her back. Once again he knew how unfair it was that Tim was dead and he was still here he seemed to keep surviving despite how much he deserved to die.

He was shaken from his thoughts by a swirling portal of light appearing and Bart’s cousin shooting out of it. “Superboy, you have to come with me now.” She grabbed his arm and he panicked shaking his head; no, he couldn’t go he needed to just find a whole to crawl into a die. “I know it’s a bad time but you have to come now otherwise the legion is going to be wiped out.”

He didn’t want to believe her but he could tell from her voice she was being honest. He thought back to those few months with the legion and wished he’d never made the choice to come back to this time. He nodded that he’d go with her and she quickly said, “hang onto me then.”

He was dragged along after her through the wormhole and soon found himself in the middle of a strange laboratory. “Excellent,” Brainiac 5 said from where he was standing by a large machine. “Superboy, I need you to strip off your clothes and enter this machine.” He said gesturing toward a rather imposting looking machine.

“Why,” He asked feeling out of sorts. He was starting to regret agreeing to come along. He wasn’t going to be much use to anyone. He knew that Brainiac 5 was clearly annoyed but before anyone said anything Saturn girl called him over to a monitor.

“We need you to stop Warworld,” She said bringing up an image of a massive metal planet flying through space. “It has adapted to every attack the United Federation of Planets has thrown at it.” She looked down. “Cosmic Boy managed to disable it briefly but he couldn’t take the entire planet apart in one attack so now it’s adapted to his magnetic abilities.”

“I can’t take a whole planet apart,” He said doing his best not to panic. He should have known they’d want something impossible from him. He didn’t know why they thought he could but he knew his limits the most he’d ever done was affect an entire city and that was completely by accident.

“Not as you are now,” Saturn girl said and then pointed out the machine. “Brainiac 5 has built that machine to magnify your ability to process solar energy and we are currently in orbit around a suitable star in an uninhabited solar system.” She looked away. “With the power of an entire sun inside you, there is nothing you won’t be able to do.”

He turned to stare at the machine and felt a sense of horror fill him. He’d already caused so much harm in his own time with just his own powers. He didn’t want to think about what kind of damage he would do with that much power. “I can’t do this, I’m sorry send me back to my time.”

“You have to do this,” Saturn Girl said shocking him. “I know you don’t think you can after everything that has happened but history says you make it back after helping us save our future.” He glanced down. “If you don’t do this then Luthor wins and his warworld will conquer everything.”

“Did you say Luthor?” He asked and saw her look away. “Luthor is in that thing, isn’t he?” He asked knowing that was the only thing that made sense. He didn’t know how Luthor had lived for so long or built that monster planet but it was exactly like him. “I’ll do it.”

World One Hour Six

He sat staring at the box Saturn girl had left with him after she told him the bad news. He didn’t know how to feel on one hand he’d saved the day and destroyed an entire metal planet. He didn’t think he’d ever feel that powerful again and part of him was glad. It was hard enough just having the power he always had let alone being that strong. He glanced in the mirror glad his hair had grown back in response to his bodies super charged state.

He was also slightly relieved that he didn’t have to go back to his own time for a while since until his body chemistry and power level was done straightening out him being in the past could change history too much. He was after all currently stronger than Clark by a significant margin. He didn’t really understand how his body was supposed to get back to his original power levels but Brainiac 5 assured him it would just be a matter of time.

He opened the box and looked at the Black and Silver suit that he’d been given along with a new legion flight ring. He wasn’t sure he wanted to take up the offer of membership in the legion until it was time for him to go back to the past. He was glad at least that it wasn’t Clark’s suit in the box. He couldn’t wear that one not after everything else.

He wished that Tim was here so he could ask him for advice but that was impossible Tim had been dead before he’d left the past. He fought back tears and closed the box. He wasn’t ready to play Superboy again yet. He just couldn’t do it.

Ten Worlds Kon Version
World One Hour Seven

“This isn’t how I expected our date to go,” Jenni said as she dodged the attack of the strange robots in the place they currently found themselves. He didn’t bother responding. “I mean really how often does this happen to you getting dragged into the future during dinner.”

“It’s only happened twice,” He said as she smashed a robot. “Anytime you’re ready to explain why we have been dragged here to the future Superman,” He said glancing at the Superman of the 853rd century who was smashing two large robots together. He only vaguely recalled meeting him once before.

“We need a DNA sample from you to stabilize the Justice Legion S since someone infected them with a DNA-based virus after destroying all records of your DNA.” He said as he hurled several more robots into the pile. “Your time period with the Legion was in our records so we brought you here to acquire an uncorrupted DNA sample.”

He blew the last large robot apart with his TK before he landed glancing over at Jenni who was glaring up at the future Superman. “That might be a problem I’m still suffering the effects of what Brianiac 5 did to me.”

“That won’t be an issue Brianiac 417 can fix any issues we just need an uncorrupted DNA sample.” The future Superman said. “Once we have it we can return you and XS to the exact moment we took you from.”

He glanced over at Jenni and she nodded quickly. “Okay let’s get this over with.” He hoped this would be the last time one of his dates got interrupted by time travel. They were then teleported to another location and his eyes widened when he saw who was waiting there. “Guardian is that you?”

“Yeah Kid,” Guardian said shaking his head. “It’s a long story how I got here, but I can’t tell it to you.” He understood that he’d been banned by the Legion from looking at any historical records concerning his own future or the future of anyone else he’d known. He’d had a tough time not looking especially at how Cassie’s life had turned out. He still hoped to make amends some day for how he’d treated her.

“We need to get this over with and get back to the Legion’s time,” Jenni said speaking up. “So take the DNA sample and then send us on our way.” He didn’t blame her for wanting to get back though part of him would love to spend a bit of time here looking around to see if he had any decedents running around aside from the Cadmus created Superboy legion.

World One Hour Eight

“Is your family coming?” XS asked as he arrived at the Legion headquarters where Brainiac Six was going to send him back to his original time period. He shook his head no, he’d already said his goodbyes to them and didn’t want this to be any harder than it had to be. “Are you sure you want to do it this way?”

“Yes, we said our goodbyes last night this is hard enough without having them here,” He said forcing himself not to think about what he was leaving behind here. “I can’t believe after fifty-one years I’m finally being sent back to the past.”

“I know I had forgotten this day would even come,” XS said and gave him a weak smile. He noticed the grey in her hair. “I honestly thought you’d outlive the entire legion at the way you were going.” He’d wondered at that possibility himself it was why he’d finally gone and ahead and had a family. “You don’t have to worry about them we will check up on them to make sure they are okay.”

“Nothing you can say will stop me from wondering though I have to wonder if perhaps I’m out there somewhere Superman managed to live to this age and beyond after all.” He found himself smiling. “It is nice to pretend that I might be out there just waiting for this me to get sent to the past so I won’t change anything to come back.”

“Anything is possible XS said shaking her head,” Jenni said with a smile. “Do me a favor and tell Bart hello for me.” She said as they entered the room with the equipment that would send him back to the past.

“I will,” he said and then walked forward alone to where Brainiac’s five and six were waiting to send him on his way. He fingered the small crystal that contained images of his life here the only keepsake he was allowed to take back to the past with him. He closed his hand around it and stepped into the machine before his resolve could fail him and the legion had to force him back to the past.

Ten Worlds Kon Version
World One Hour Nine

He probably should have known better than to let the robots at the fortress design his new costume but he had wanted something different. Despite how unsure he was of this design it was definitely different than what he’d worn in the future with the legion. He shook himself he needed to stay focused he had no idea how Cassie was going to take the news he wasn’t rejoining the team. He could focus on all the other issues like how much he missed his family and the shocking news he’d received from Superman about Epiphany.

H forced himself not to think about that and look around once he landed on the tower. He found it strange how strong his memories of this place were. He was startled from his thoughts by Cassie’s approach. He noticed she was flying right at him and braced himself for a possible slap but instead she hugged him yelling his name excitedly. “I’m so glad your back,” she said as he did his best to disentangle her arms.

“That’s not the welcome I was expecting,” he said in a rather forced joke, “when I asked Bart to tell you to meet me here.” He had rehearsed this moment many times over the years but all his preparation seemed to have flown at the window he’d never expected Cassie to be glad to see him. He felt extremely self-conscious as he forced himself to go on. “Cassie, there are some things I need to tell you before the other Titans get here.”

“You aren’t going to disappear again are you?” Cassie asked in obvious distress. “I really don’t want my boyfriend running off again.” He felt his insides freeze she still thought they were together how on earth was he going to tell her everything now. “I mean you are rejoining the team aren’t you?”

That at least was something he could tell her easily. “I won’t be rejoining the titans,” He said after a moment. “I don’t think I’m a good fit at the moment.” He could tell she was shocked by that statement but he hoped she’d understand.

“You’re not rejoining the team?” She asked her face clouding with anger. “Your not going to run off to the farm and hide again are you?” He shook his head no. “That’s good because I don’t want our social life reduced to a few rolls in the hay every so often like it was after the last time Luthor took over your mind.” He was once again reminded that she expected their relationship to continue and it just couldn’t.

“That’s something else we need to talk about Cassie we can’t be together anymore.” He saw her face fall in shock and knew he should be prepared for a violent outburst. He knew it was only going to be even worse when everything came out.

“What!” He flinched slightly from the volume of her shout. “You disappear for into the future for six weeks with the legion and all of a sudden you don’t want me anymore?” He tried to think of something to say to calm her down but she continued before he could. “You bastard first you beat me under Luthor’s control and then you pull this shit.” She was clearly on the verge of tears. “I would still be laying there with broken bones if it wasn’t for Raven and the fact I’m the daughter of Zeus.”

Her fist was flying toward his face shortly there after. He calmly caught her with his TK he couldn’t let this confrontation turn physical. He watched her eyes widen in surprise as he stopped her. “Let me go, Kon.”

“Not until you calm down,” He said after giving her a moment to calm down. “It wasn’t just six weeks for me Cassie,” He took a deep breath this was the moment of truth. “It was over fifty-one years.” He watched as she reacted visibly in shock so he released her from his TK field and watched her step back.

“That’s impossible,” She said sounding shocked. “You don’t look a day older than when you left if that was true...” He said nothing just let her stare at him as the truth sunk in. He didn’t know what she was seeing that made it clear to her he was telling the truth but he was glad she seemed to believe him. “How is that possible?”

He hoped things would go better as he prepared to tell her as much as he could. He would tell her about XS and how Bart reacted that would give him insight into how to broach the subject of how horribly he treated her before he left for the future.

Ten World’s Kon Version
World One Hour Ten

“Dad, watch this,” His son said cheerfully as he made the soccer ball bounce up and down on his head without trying. “I can do two now,” He watched as a second ball was thrown on top of the other. He clapped impressed with how quickly their young son was learning to control his inherited telekinetic abilities.

“That’s enough showing off Tim, your dad has to leave or he’ll be late for Garfield’s wedding.” Eve said as she walked out the back door. He watched as his son frowned and he knew what was coming next. “Don’t start Tim you are too young to play hero.”

“Why though I’m better than some other heroes, why can’t I be Superboy now?” He shook his head his son had been asking that for the last two years. He knew Eve was going to snap at Tim over it so he walked over before she could.

“Look Tim, you aren’t old enough you’re not ready yet,” He knelt down in front of his son. “When you are ready, you’ll be great but until then just enjoy being a kid like your mom and I wish we could have been.” He knew his son really didn’t understand how he and Eve had been born as teenagers thanks to the fact they were clones.

“Okay,” His son said sounding anything but okay. He didn’t say anything though cause it was a small victory. He wondered how long it was going to be before his son got fed up and snuck off trying to play hero on his own. He and Eve needed to have a chat with Oracle about possibly putting Tim under stricter surveillance. “Can mom and I go to the wedding with you?”

“No, we can’t,” Eve said quickly. “I’m not on good terms with the bride and it is her special day and my presence would ruin it.” He couldn’t help but think about how true that was. He also shouldn’t be there but if the current Superman didn’t show up the tabloids would have a field day. They’d probably claim he was heartbroken and pining for Wonder woman.

“I tell you what Tim,” He said knowing Eve would get on him for bribing their son but he hated seeing him upset. “How about tomorrow I come get you and we go pay Uncle Clark and Aunt Lois a visit?”

Once he’d managed to escape from his son’s enthusiastic yes he said an apologetic goodbye to Eve for bribing their son and took off toward the site of the wedding. He was glad for his relationship with his son but he still missed his other kids back in the future. He really wished he could have introduced Tim to his half siblings and step father.
