It was a cool night, and a big bright moon was clear up in the sky. Superman was flying over the city, happy about a recent save he'd made. He kept his eyes focused, looking for menace, and his ears were tuned for any screams or sounds of trouble. That's when he heard the cries.

He could hear them as clear as a plane in the sky, and they were as loud and shrill as the cries of a baby bird. He honed his ears to the sound of the crying baby; it had been crying for hours and no one had come to quell it.

He focused on the sounds of the environment; no cars, no heartbeats, no sign of any other living being nearby who would help the baby. Suddenly, Superman sensed a drop in the baby's vitals and immediately flew to the baby.

Everything earthy was floating mid air, and she was in the middle of it. Superman glided to the floor, amazed. It was very obvious the baby was controlling the events around her. As he stepped closer, the baby stopped crying and it was as if time froze. But in the next second that felt hours to come, everything fell, including the baby.

Supes ran to grab her as she fell, and instead of hearing a baby cry in fear, he looked upon the bundle in his arms to see the most brilliant y/e/c eyes he'd ever seen. A smile radiated from her face as she sucked her fist.

"And why are you here all by yourself?" He rhetorically cooed to the baby, but he got his answer as a piece of paper floated to him.

Sorry, we don't have the capacity to look after an alien baby. She was born on y/b/d.

"Alien baby, are you?" He joked and she cackled.

"I don't suppose it's a good idea to drop you at an orphanage." He thought out loud and the baby disagreed, voicing it with a cry.

"No, no. It's okay. I'm not giving you to anyone. I'm gonna take you home, E.T. Us aliens can be together."

The baby agreed with that, excitedly shaking her arms and exhaling happy sounds.

"We need to give you a name too! How about y/n? Apparently, it's a very popular and pretty name in Krypton."

Y/n smiled, and Superman took it as an agreement.

"Y/n Kal-El." He placed a kiss on the baby's y/h/c hair.

"Let's take you home, E.T." And Superman cradled y/n in his strong arms and flew back home, passing in front of the big moon that was proudly hanging in the night sky.
