1 krypton

In the endless space and the unknown universe there are many wonders and mysteries but today our story begins in an old galaxy specifically in a solar system with a red sun inhabited by a race who achieved high technological advancement they are known as the kryptonians their home planet orbits a red sun witch make them unique because a red sun is also known as a dying sun

because of that for life to develop and survive under it's harmful rays that barely can sustain an organism alive is near impossible

that's why an advanced race like the kryptonians considered an anomaly because even if any life miraculously develops may not have the chance to develop before their solar system collapses there for all races that evolved under such harsh conditions are known for their resilience and strength

the kyptonians are not an exception for that rule they sailed throw space to explore and conquer many planets and accumulate more knowledge and recourses to keep their civilization standing

they gained a reputation and become known and feared all over the universe but every few decades you can see this proud race comes together and travel back to their home planet to witness the coronation of their new emperor who will rule krypton

in the capital city Kandor of planet krypton the next in line for the throne is Jor-El also known as the brightest brain of krypton is preparing for this important event but in the halls of his palace another kind event is going on this event in his lab where Lara Lor-van is giving birth to the prince of krypton

but what makes it a unique event is the fact that it is the first natural birth sice thousands of years sice kryptonians abandoned this method saying that it was a non efficient way to reproduce instead they used their great knowledge to create a machine where they recorded all gene related data that they collected from the universe to make the perfect solider the perfect scientist the perfect doctor and the perfect leader

but Jor-El found that although this brought great stability to krypton and a revolution to their technological advancement but this stability eventually caused stagnation and a stop to their progress because this system although it didn't affect the nobility of krypton that much but it rendered and downgraded the civilians to machine like creatures who are they made solely to fulfill one mission or a task for the rest of their lives and for that purpose the machine took out and eliminated everything that it deemed as obstacle for achieving their purpose

but some of the things they lost are the ability to dream a passion or curiosity witch results in a serious lack of creativity although they have the best brains and IQ level but non of them can reach their full potential

that's why Jor-El decided to abandon this old methods and give krypton a new start but such drastic change will not be welcomed by the others very easily so Jor-El kept this a secret and only known by him and his family and his closest friend general Dru-Zod the hero and guardian of krypton and the latter saw this change in a positive light that will bring prosperity to krypton and it's people and made an oath to help his friend in his quest because for general there is nothing more important than glory and honor of creating a era of progress and prosperity

while Jor-El decided to build the foundation for this new age he decided that he needed someone to light the way and play the rule of the pillar for the new age and for that he decided to start his first change by giving birth to the light of hope the spark of change and the prince of krypton Kal-El without the interference of the machine

unfortunately the wind of change didn't favor Jor-El sails when his plan got leaked and become known to the most powerful AI in Krypton who wasn't amused with Jor-El plans he found it to be a threat to krypton and a threat to himself therefore he started sabotaging Jor-El plans

by trying to stop him from gaining more power

he started by delaying the coronation by causing a lot of wars in the borders of the empire by leaking information to the enemies and the rebel leading to a heavy burden on the armies and it even resulted in the injury of the great general Zod multiple times

Zod was not an idiot he knew that the only way the enemy keeps finding his location and plans could be explained only by the existence of traitor in their side but who could it be

the kryptonians are a united race who values honor and also they won't be fools to make such critical mistakes that endangers them as a whole race

unknown to the general it was all according to the rogue K.G.A (short for krypton greatest ai) plans and schemes while Zod stays in the healing pod every time he got injured the K.G.A took this opportunity to manipulate and brainwashed Zod making him believe it was Jor-El who is trying to assassinate him because he is the only one who can save krypton and stop the new era and that his friend is planning to kill all kryptonians made by the machine because they are no longer necessary in this new age this statement by K.G.A broke the last doubts of Zod

although Zod and Jor-El are friends but Zod was built for the purpose of protecting krypton he is designed to show no mercy for the enemies of krypton so he assembled his trusted subordinates to plan a coup against the nobility of krypton with the help of the K.G.A because Zod idiology now is aligned with the Ai goals due to the brain waching he gone through and now he believes that the Nobels are the cause of krypton downfall he always had doubts about there more peaceful takes on foreign relations as a general and the Ai took full advantage of his doubts by amplifying them causing Zod to go insane

Jor-El pov:

in the last few months the K.G.A started showing a lot of opposition to me at first I thought it was some of the high ranking nobles using there rights of access to pressure me into pleasing them to gain there favor and political power but I was wrong it turns out to be the worst scenario possible the K.G.A himself decided to oppose me I'm afraid this won't end with this trivial disagreement and opposition to my proposals and plans I started having a bad feeling since I lost contact with Zod specially in this critical time I have to find out what the K.G.A planning to do the only way to do that is to create a stronger Ai so I can hack his network and erase him from the systems

I am running out of time I can't build an Ai without K.G.A sabotaging the process even if I managed to do that I won't complete the process before time is up but my work this few days didn't go to waste I found out that Zod is planning a coup I can't comprehend why Zod would do such a thing but whit this data I can now take more serious action in limiting the K.G.A rights of access using the coup as cover I must move fast

Jor-El pov ends .
