Lara touched the House of El emblem on the battle armor, it brought her to tears just thinking about him, her dear husband had died protecting their son, their Kal, the last hope for their people, a chance for Krypton to begin anew to bring back the honor they had lost so many eons ago. Closing it, she turned as the earth trembled beneath her fear, her service bots both trailing her. She walked to the large window seeing the landscape before her erupt as the planet that birthed life seven billion years ago was coming apart at its seams.

''Lady Lara, shouldn't you find refuge?'' asked Kelor.

''There is no refuge, not here,'' she whispered watching the eruptions eclipse the warm rays of the red sun. She looked up at the sky and thought of her beloved baby boy journeying to that planet light years from here, to a new home, she hoped he would be loved. Tears welled up in her eyes, her curly hair swaying in the wind.

''Make a better world Kal,'' she whispered. The land exploded in front of her, the last thought she had before the fires consumed her was of her husband and son.
