55. 5 Stages of Grief

Title: 56.Why Superman needs to Clark

By:janahjeanb

Clark Kent slammed his shoulder on the phone booth and ignore the huge dent it cause as he frantically tried to get his suit, tie and his coat out as his chest burns!

His relief after getting himself naked and cool wind soothe frayed nerve and burning skin was broken as scar in the shape of his family crest burned itself on his chest and pecs.

"Arghhh!" He howled as super-strength crushed the payphone in his hand as he tried to grab something to anchor him from the pain and grief.

His father, Jor-el had oblirated Clark Kent.

Clark Kent.

Investigative Reporter

Partner of Lois Lane

Was no more.

Lois grunted barely awake as Richard White kiss his girlfriend's cheek before he chase after Perry White in his office.

Lois made a face as she taste her coffee. Something at the back of her head told her she tasted something way better than this. Delivered in fact by-

"Watch it, Olsen!" She growl when the new gopher bump her. She almost spilled her cup of joe while she made her way to her desk.

Jimmy turned white, swallowed a couple of times and fled before Lois could pounce on him like fresh meat.

Lois now awake scowl for a bit before she sat down and turned on her pc to start the day.

"Morning Miss Lane," Superman as always seemed to be easily at her beck and call this month.

Lois kind of feel weird seeing Superman seemed to pat the globe architect sculpture rather fondly before he touched down on the rooftop and look at Lane expectantly.

"I want an interview." Lois said bluntly before she realized she is too harsh and almost added reluctantly, "if you're not too busy?"

Good humour flashed briefly before Superman nod. "This related to the killing yesterday? And no, Miss Lane I'm not too busy."

A brief ten minutes later…

"Babe?"

Superman caught Lois irritated look before the woman forced a smile on her face as she turn to wave at Richard who was half in half out of the door leading to the roof.

She waved at him and in return Richard pointed at his watch.

"Shit." Lois cursed suddenly remembering a previous appointment with the mayor. She began stuffing her phone which she used as a recorder back on her bag and give a sheepish smile on Superman.

"Rain check?" She beg smiling hopefully at Superman after giving a brief nod at White. Richard close the door after that nod.

Clark nodded too sad suddenly to say a yes without croaking. He was about to fly. Then before he could chickened out, he asked, "Are you happy Miss Lane with him?"

The question is as weird as Superman's familiarity with the globe sculpture. He rubbed the same spot, other Daily Planeteers rub often for good luck in their story chasing.

"Yes."

Superman nod politely and disappear.

The next time, Lois saw Superman it was evening. Lois came up to smoke her last cigar before she is going home to her apartment and rest. She was almost eager to be left alone on her thoughts as she gaze at Metropolis and so she was kinda piss when she saw someone else had occupied her space.

"Oh." Boy, she sounded stupid but she didnt expect at all to see Superman sit floating as he look at the city before him.

She was about to give him privacy and she was stepping down the stairs when…

She spy as Superman rubbed a knuckle over his eyes and bit down on the knuckle hard a few minute later. His head snapped when he heard something and with a whisper of fabric, he vanished.

The too human gesture was something that paralyzed Lois. She marvel at it, she pounced and played with the thought. Superman had always played it cool and aloof, he even made Lois uncomfortable on rare occassiom during interview where Superman would be so still, it's alieness stand out.

She caught something being blown at the wake of Superman's disappearance. She quickly snatch it from thin air. It was a piece of paper.

She quickly read thru it. Her eyes widen.

The prose was snappy. The description flowed. It was a draft. A beginning of an article.

And below it… there is...her name Lois Lane. And a very blacken cross several times two something after her name and the word "and."
