Ethereal stood looking around and all he could see was the beautiful field filled with flowers that grew on his home world.

" Am home " he said smiling as he looked up to the sky smiling as he saw two shadows coming from behind him, he quickly turned around to see his parents. " Mother, father " he whispered seeing them and running to hug them.

" Look at you all grown up " king Orion said as he hugged Ethereal and they all embraced each other before Ethereal heard his alarm ring.

" It was all a dream " he said looking up at the roof on his bed and still on earth.

Next door to them Leo's new powers were out of control thanks to his nerves and emotion all over the place.

" What am I, ? Did you do this to me, ? Experiment on me and turned me into this ? " He asked Lilian,

" Your my beautiful boy " she said hugging him as Leo electrocuted her but some pushed her aside.

" Leo " Lilian said on the floor as a strange blood thirst had taken over leo.

" I will hurt you instead " Leo said smiling and jumped at the guy trying to hurt him but it wasn't working.

" Your cruel but have so much to learn.  " he said back as Leo saw the guy was fine as he to fired back with a gigantic bolt of electricity till leo passed out.

" He's young and powerful but with no training or control " The man said as Lilian went to check on Leo.

" What was that ? " She asked.

" He's coming into his power but he is an angry young man " he said as Lilian tried to wake him up.

" Who is that ? " Leo asked,

" He's your uncle charles " Lilian explained to him as she got him up and put him in his bed.

" Just rest " Lilian said to him.

" No I want Ethereal here with me, if you won't give me answers " Leo said with a calm tone as Lilian didn't think it was okay with Leo's emotion and powers out of control.

" No it's not a good idea right now but later " She tried saying to calm him down.

" No " he shouted as his eyes sparked and everything in the house that run on electricity started going out of control.

" Dad what is happening ? " Lex asked as everything was going on and off.

" It's just your brother " Lionel answered as he was on the phone.

" Who are you calling ? " Lex asked,

" I am calling scientist from area 17 to come with strong electric conductors and with heavy sedative to put him down for a while " he told Lex as they heard a knock on the door.

" I will get it " Lex said as he went and opened the door to find a worried Ethereal.

" Your house is literally a firework show " Ethereal said as it stopped and the power in the house returned normal.

" Ethereal " Leo said looking at his mother.

" Ethereal " Lex opened the door smiling as Ethereal came in.

" It's  Leo, he's out of control " Lex explained as they went to Leo's room.

" Leo " Ethereal called out as Leo smiled seeing him.

" Your here " Leo said as Ethereal went to him.

" Who is he ? " Charles asked,

" Ethereal " Lilian said as Lex didn't want Ethereal going close to Leo.
