Biography
Aya was an artificial intelligence system that was constructed as part of a research initiative conducted by the Oan Scar Science Director amongst the Guardians of the Universe. They desired the creation of a machine that as capable of understanding human emotion after their Manhunters had failed in their role as enforcers of peace. Despite her efforts, the Science Director failed in instilling her creation with sentience. To bypass this problem, she secretly made her way to the Central Power Battery in order to capture a sliver of the entity that resided within it. The creature was a closely guarded secret of the Guardians with only a few aware of its existence. With this fragment, she placed it within her creation thus giving the intelligence spark of willpower and therefore life. With it, she empowered the computer intelligence leading it to become self-aware and alive. The Science Director allowed the intelligence to grow but forbade her from accessing the wider databases but she disobeyed its Oan master. Tapping into the planetary database, she attempted to learn everything she could until the Director forcibly shut her down by tapping into her own cosmic power. With her shut down, the Oan Science Director decided to abandon her research project and instead decided to install Aya into the navigation system of a newly developed vessel known as the Interceptor. This was with the intention that she would be forgotten and never see active use. When the Red Lantern Corps began attacking the Frontier, Hal Jordan intended to combat them despite the order against doing so by the Guardians of the Universe. As a result, Jordan along with Kilowog decided to take over the Interceptor with the hidden assistance of Ganthet. After boarding the craft, they became acquainted with Aya who decided to assist them by taking the Interceptor into the Frontier before they could be apprehended by the Guardians.
She was not killed but her remaining parts had survived but were too far from the Interceptor that prevented her from downloading into the ship. Instead, she found the remains of a damaged Manhunter and placed her intelligence into its ruined body that made its way slowly back to the Interceptor. Aya would manage to enter the craft's lower decks where she was met with by Hal, Kilowog and Razer arrived to investigate the unknown entry on the ship. As Aya rebuilt herself, she would ask what Razer meant when he said her 'loved' her but he responds by saying that he did not love her as she simply took the form of the person he had loved and that she was nothing more than a machine. Razer's rejection caused Aya to feel 'pain' and she would ask Hal Jordan on how to rid herself of that feeling. Jordan who was busy trying to muster a fight against the Anti-Monitor who was destroying the Red Lantern armada told her that people simply either lived with the rejection or blocked it. Aya would operate ineffectively in the battle against the Manhunters and decided to block all emotions. This resulted in her going to the engine room where she absorbed the energy of the ship's power battery causing it to be inactive whilst Aya became supercharged whereupon she engaged the enemy despite Jordan's attempts to stop her. She would destroy the Manhunters and send a Red Lantern ship slamming into the Anti-Monitor right before she launched herself at him and pierced his chest. The power of the strike dislodged his head sending it flying into space whilst Aya herself had merged with the remains of the Anti-Monitor's body. Believing their foe defeated, Hal asked her to return to the ship though Aya simply responded that she saw things much more clearly now and that the true monsters were her former friends that were destroying the emotionless machines. This led to her declaring herself the Manhunter queen and that they would serve her in the quest of ending the chaos of emotions. With the reactivated Manhunters, she departed the area as she began her campaign of ending the life of all organics.
