Chapter 115: Chapter 115
"So this is the place."
Leonardo stood before a warehouse where Alia stood next to him. It's been a few days since she appeared in the past with Lois returning to the past. For why she returned to the past while "attempting" to kill Lois. It was actually a funny story since Lois sort of interrupted Future Leonardo's plans to bring down General Zod who began waging world conquest.
So, Alia who was a spy Leonardo spent a lot of time bringing to his own side by various means. A lot of poking and harassment in battle that awakened something odd inside her alongside it. Well, she wasn't too happy since Leonardo barely managed to complete this task Lois just nearly ruined, but lost Clark and most of his mistresses.
Well, in truth, he lost most of the world since General Zod's die-hard followers, upon learning of their incoming defeat, began to race around the world causing a large amount of damage. The untold number of deaths and destruction as they flattened or sunk most of the world's continents.
So, the Future Leonardo ordered Alia to go to the past and make sure this future doesn't happen. Even if it meant he would be alone in a ruined world since basically everyone was dead. Which made Alia really despise Lois and wanted to teach her a lesson and maybe a few cuts as a lesson.
"Yes, this is the spot we gathered upon our release of the orb." Alia answered. "We should be gathering within a day or two. We all were released about a month ago when the creature you call Doomsday was defeated."
Leonardo just nodded as he heard Alia mention it previously.
"I assume I worked on getting you all to another planet in the future right?" Leonardo asked. "A New Krypton or something like that."
"You sure know yourself well. However, Clark wanted us to integrate on Earth as well. So the two had some minor disagreements on how to do so. In the end, while we did go into hiding and mingle among the people. During which the clone of General Zod began a crusade to get powers and terraform Earth into New Krypton."
Hearing this, Leonardo sighed since he really wanted to know how that still came to pass. He should have been on guard about it, but something must have happened. For what could have happened, he didn't know and decided not to pursue that for now.
"Alright, I will begin looking for a planet to be New Krypton." Leonardo sighed. "Until I figure something out, let's try not to have such a future happen again."

"Leo, I have to ask, don't you have filming or something?" Liz asked.
Sitting on the floor of Liz's living room, Leonardo was in an intense chess match against Sheldon. Both have yet to lose a piece while both had their pieces all around the board. Many set up to deliver a heavy counter attack to the other party if they take a piece hastily. Granted Leonardo had a few ways to break it, but he was having fun playing with Sheldon.
"I finished it for the time being." Leonardo waved his hand unconcern.
"Not to sound insensitive or greedy, but I know or really most of the town know the Kent's aren't the wealthiest. How are you able to afford so much or even that Rolax?" Liz asked. "Also, can you not bring such expensive gifts each day you come? I feel like I will owe a great debt if I look at them."
"I write books, sell art, get retirement payment from the police force, own a crew that mines gold. Just to name a few, I thought you were told before." Leonardo answered. "Money is easy come easy go truth be told."
Moving a piece, Leonardo grinned. "Checkmate Sheldon."
"Huh? How?" Sheldon looked on in surprise.
Showing Sheldon how and why he won, Leonardo felt happy as Sheldon demanded a rematch. Since he quickly reset the board and waited for him to make the first move.
"I will win this time."
"It's nice to have dreams." Leonardo puffed out his chest.
"Why are you so proud to win against him? He is barely five." Liz sat a plate down on top of Leonardo's head.
"It was a tough match. My old brain might not be able to keep up." Leonardo joked.
Liz just rolled her eyes at his words.

"Jor-El. What can you tell me about the Orb that holds the DNA of Kryptonains?"
Inside the Fortress of Solitude, Leonardo decided to ask Jor-El. Since the Orb wasn't where it was originally within the show. Not to mention that the Kryptonian inside was now released and would soon gather.
"Why do you ask, my Son?"
"Those within are now out." Leonardo replied.
"This is bad." Jor-El stated.
"Hence, why I am asking. A large number of Kryptonians should not live on Earth. The people of Earth won't like it and truth be told the kryptonians within probably won't like mingling with humans either." Leonardo stated. "So I want to ask, is there any planet that can become New Krypton?"
"What makes you assume I know anything about this orb and its inhabitants?" Jor-El asked.
"Well, you are the one that made it. Knowing you, you probably made a secret back up plan behind the council or something." Leonardo replied in a joking tone.
"There is indeed a place I prepared." Jor-El's voice boomed. "You will need to find the disk called the Book of Rao. I left it on Earth alongside a portal to use that would send all Krytonains on this planet to a new place. Be warned I do not know where it is nor can I make it ring."
"Woah! Another treasure hunt. Just what I wanted." Leonardo sarcastically said.
"This will send away all Kryptonians, even you my son." Jor-El added.
"Figure that." Leonardo said. "Well, I'm off to track down the Book of Rao."
"Be safe, my Son."

"Do you even know what the Book of Rao looks like?" Kara asked.
"A disk with a triangle in the center that would fit into the palm of a hand. Will have kryptonian words engraved and apparently the power to send kryptonians off the planet." Leonardo answered. "So if you see it or hear about it let me know."
"Why do you need it?" Aurora asked.
"Clones of Kryptonians were released and now are on Earth. They are the back up plan so Krypton could live on. Now I need to get them to a place that could become the New Krypton before either humans or they become hostile to each other." Leonardo answered.
"Can't they just learn to live here?" Clark asks.
"They are Kryptonian soldiers, scientists, engineers and so on. They grew up on Krypton and not Earth. Most won't feel at home and among them is General Zod and he probably won't want to share the planet with others." Leonardo explained. "So I want to give them a place where they can rebuild Krypton."
"I can confirm that Zod won't." Alia nodded.
"Isn't it a bit extreme to assume that." Clark glared at her.
"Not really, since the future I came from did happen. The only reason Zod probably hasn't started was because he doesn't yet have powers and hasn't deteriorated into complete madness." Alia replied, making the group silent.
"Well, let's aim for a better future this time." Leonardo clapped his hands.
