Prologue
DING DONG!
My grumbling stomach welcomed the noise, even though it wasn't my turn to cook tonight I was glad when my mentor offered we just order pizza tonight. My stomach grumbled again I was going to wait a few more moments to before walking down the hallway to get near the door, but never open it. No, that's always been far too dangerous, but there hasn't been a scare for years I don't suspect they will find us now. Gradually we've been letting our guard down. I'm even allowed to be in the hallway when Jen opens the door now days.
I was turning the corner just as Jenna was getting to the door, her long cape of black hair flocked around her face but fell long and smooth just above the bottom of her spine. She was dressed simply but too old for her real age, but I guess that was the appearance she was meant to give, to make sure no one saw how young she was and how she was much too young to be my mother.
"Ah!" The noise escaped my mouth before I felt the prickling feeling on the back of my neck. My hand quickly reached up to feel where the sensation had come from. My fingers pressed on the permanently cool patch of skin where once layed marking that would protect me, but long since had that been gone and it had been an even longer time that I had had that prickling feeling. Meanwhile Jenna was opening the screen door, where the pizza man stood in the dim spot light on our spider infested balcony.
One of his shoulders was lower than the other but it might have looked that way as he was ducking away from the light. His Dominos pizza cap was covering his face and he looked like more of a man, with broad shoulders and thick arms, much different than the usual boys who deliver the pizzas. My breath caught when I noticed his hands. The backs of his palms were laced with gnarled skin that shone as though from being burnt and healing over in a most grotesque form. His fingers looked as though they may have been broken before and never fully healed to be as straight as they once were. His tilted his head down and I saw a glint of something red as his face passed into the light briefly and his thumb brushed against the receipt he held on top of the pizza box. I shied away slightly from my nook in corridor leading to the door, The prickling sensation on my neck had reappeared and for some reason I really didn't want that man to see me.
" A delivery for Lola De'Seres," He slurred out the words as if the name bored him behind that lazy tone I heard raspiness which hadn't been present before he said my name. I sucked in a quick gulp of air. My name. How did he know my name if Jenna had ordered the pizza. Jenna had tensed, her hand tightening on the protruding little handle ever so slightly turning and pushing it in a way a door knob wouldn't normally turn, but it was no ordinary door knob.
Jenna composed herself and made sure her voice was light and a little confused,
" Lola De' What? Im sorry but you must have got the orders mixed up? Unless you've got one for Erin?"
She shot the man a little smile, completely forgetting her role as a mother of a 17 year old girl and portrayed her own young age, before turning the door knob ever so slightly that if I hadn't known what she was doing it wouldn't have seemed at all suspicious to someone normal but the man fingers grasped the box tighter as if hearing the faint clicking of the other side of the door knob which by now was transforming and extending into a different shape.
"No, De'Meke," Jenna slightly crouching into a defensive position at the use of her true last name "Lola De'Seres is who I wish to see," The man's lazy tone from before was all but a distant memory as his voice was rough and deep, filled with a cold hatred that pierced the ears like icicles. He still stood holding his pizza box though the time for pretence was long gone.
I knew that standing here was extremely unwise, but I was frozen so petrified by this man. The tension was getting harder to bear, almost suffocating me all of this happened within a matter of moments but it felt as thought it was lasting for hours. I knew what would follow when Jenna revealed the door knobs true form and I had a feeling that when this happens the pizza man will reveal his too.
You know the feeling of being caught in a bad dream and there is no escape-no, when the scariest part in a horror movie and you cover your eyes and block you ears but you still peek and even though you know it is terrifying and may regret it later.
I looked at my dearest companion one last time before i turned and ran. I could hear the crash of the door, the slashing of metal on metal, I heard him growl and i heard her fight. The door knob now revealed as one of our home planets finest weapons, shape shifts to your need, I bet she picked the Dereser metal Sword, she was the best at fighting with it many years ago.I slam the door in my room, looking for my Medalion. I can sense its already too late. I look to the ceiling and scream " Diana! Come Forth! Guide Us! Protect Our People! We Have Fallen!".
Then there is silence. Tears well as I know what the silence means. Jenna is gone.
SLAM. Against my door. Its him. As the tears roll down my face, my medalion burns golden, my plea has been heard, I close my eyes in sweet relief. Then a voice that sounds like crushed stones pushed against cement fills my room.
" You have risen you shall in turn fall."
I open my eyes as the door crashes down and his monstrous figure looms above. I feel no fear, for I have been heard and she will come. She will save this people. The last tear that I shall ever have rolls down my face, I close my eyes. A good death it its own mothers words being the last thing i think before this monsters hand comes down upon me.
" Hey Lois, guess whats just been sent in," Tony called over to Ms Lois Lane herself, sitting back on her chair, in her little cubicle at the Daily Planet, " freaky stuff huh?" He dumps the sheets he had been holding on his desk.
" Tony, your enthusiasm is admirable but I just cant- What is that?" her sentence trailed away from her as she stared down at the sheets placed on her desk. Awe was written clearly across her face, and one Clark Kent did not fail to notice it.
Craning his neck slighty to see the pages, they were of a house which had been burnt down or some typeof explosion had occurred. It had been all over the news, well and the newspaper, in fact the very newspaper they were working for had run a killer story about it. Two people had been living there, a mother and daughter, they lived sort of away from town, but that was not what was getting the attention.
Above the house, in the storm clouds a figure can be seen in the air above the house. Clark's attention was completely given to these photographs now, he stood and walked over to lois's desk where Tony was leaning against. The entire ire situation in itself had upset Clark, that he couldnt have been there to save them, though the media were definitly playing the Where-Was-Superman-There card. Not everyone can be saved, and it hurt Clark to admit that.
The other sheets were just zoomed in parts of the photo, it can be seen that figure is definitely a woman but other than her build and hard nothing else can really be seen. Clark's pulse quickened, What if Im not alone?
Tony answering Lois's previous question, said with building excitement," We dont know yet, but I think we might have found our WonderWoman to our Superman."
Hehe I hope you liked it! Please leave a review and I apologise for any errors i was in a rush for the last couple of paragraphs! Until next time xoxo
