Daughter of Mars (flashback)
Many months ago, the laboratory of Dr. Erdel...

It was on this spot, decades ago, that the strange experiment of Doctor Saul Erdel had brought the Martian known as J'onn J'onzz to Earth, tearing him away from a dying world, a world where his wife and child, nearly his entire race, had perished in a horrific plague called H’ronmeer’s Curse.  Stolen from his world, torn in space, and brought to Earth, he became a hero.

But J'onn J'onzz was not the only Martian brought to Earth by Erde's machine.  The teleportation beam had struck once more, unbeknownst to anyone.  But under the weight of transporting one Martian, the other even though grabbed first, had become unhinged in space and time.  Delayed, halted, with no time passing within the beam until it would reappear on Earth.

Until this night.

The laboratory had long since been abandoned, but tonight, it lit up like a beacon as space and time bent, ripping open as a single individual fell through.  A burning, dying individual.  A Martian girl.

K'hym J'onzz.

J'onn had been flying for a while. today was a day he had no particular place to go, but that way he drifted towards that spot where he had been brought to the planet that he calls home. it was strange that he would be going that way. True, this had happened once or twice in his travels before, but those were years ago. he had all but retired at this point, the next generation coming to it's own and bring forth great talents and minds.

So tonight should have just been simple reminiscence. So when he heard the pained cries of a child, he reacted as he normally did. it was distant, so he couldn't feel more than distress.

Then it hit him. There was familiarity. A connection, different from any he had here, even the one he shared with Arthur. this left two people. This voice was two young to be his beloved, dead on Mars so long ago, but this...it couldn't...

//Father...?//

It hurt so much. She was burning. Her mind was burning. What... what was happening... why did it...

//It hurts...//

"//K'hym...I thought you were...//"

There was elation, but fear as well. K'hym was alive, but he could feel the sensation. She was burning.

"//Focus on my voice, child. Relax. you can fight this. I am on my way!//"

It hurt so much... It was all but impossible to hold her form together. Her skin melted and flowed like wax, dripping onto the ground.

She tried to focus on her father's thoughts, to hold on to something. Why... why was this happening?

//Hurts... I don't know how...//

"//Focus on my thoughts. I am almost there...please, just focus on me...//"

In those seconds, he flew through the wall, phasing and focusing his speed on removing as much of the oxygen form the room. he needs to starve the flame in order to pull it away from her and keep it from affecting him.

K'hym tried to tighten her thoughts, keep her shape together. And for a moment, as the flames died down some, she managed it.

But as long as the spark of her telepathy flared, the flames would not yet die completely.

"//Now, when I say...stop your thoughts. Do not think. The fire uses your telepathy against you. I shall do the rest.//"

J'onn steeled himself. He was already feeling the tingling weakness of his own, but he needed to save her.

K'hym looked up on her father through the pain and managed the smallest of nods, steeling her thoughts and locking them down.

Moons of Mars, it hurt so much...

But her father would save her...

Please...please, let this work, is all J'onn can think as he steels himself for what needs to be done. He begins to fly at amazing speeds, trying to draw any of the physical flames away while his mind probes around his prone daughter, trying to find a way to get the plague to move away form her now that her mind is silent.

The plague itself is located in the clusters of K'hym's mind that control her telepathy, inexorably linked to it.

K'hym forces her mind to remain clear, trusting her father.

He feels the link that the plague has with K'hym, and it becomes clear what he needs to do to save her...loathe what it is that needs doing...

He reaches into her mind, and find those centers of telepathy. Then he strengthens the reach, building up walls within the structure to isolate her.

Once he feels it has been done mentally, he brings attention fully to here. Did it work?

The burning had finally stopped, and already, she could feel her body beginning to work on healing itself. Slowly, K'hym looked up at him.

"Father...?" she began. "It is so... quiet..."

"My sweet K'hym...I did what was needed so that you were to survive..."

There is a swift moment, and K'hym is now held tightly in her fathers arms.

"I was certain you had died...my daughter..." He said through happy sobs.

K'hym held on to her father tightly, clinging for dear life.

"Where... where are we? This is not our home..."

Tears welled up in K'hym's eyes as she held her father even tighter.
