Elsewhere, 3 days later...
We see five seedy looking men walking in a bank. It's full of people, and kept neat and clean. They all look like they've been hiding from someone and constantly moving, as their eyes are bloodshot, and their suits are rumpled and stained. I'm gonna fifty different kinds of mad if this doesn't work. Then the five men pull out two pistols and three shotguns and start yelling for everyone to get on their knees if they want to keep breathing. Well, look what we've got here. Couple of thugs who think, even with me around, they can hold people up and away with it. Now's probably the best time to stop it. Suddenly a man wearing a blue full body suit, red boots and a cape, with something that cannot be clearly seen on his chest swoops down. He exclaims "stop now, or I'll have to hurt you." one of the robbers, in a sarcastic tone of voice, questions "Oh, really? You and what army, freak?" "You were warned," he states in monotone. Suddenly, red lances of heat turn the man's gun into a pile of mechanisms, too complex to identify without a guide or knowledge. As he performs this deed, however, the thief orders his men to shoot him. When they try to, though, the bullets just crumple on impact. After they do this, he takes in air and then blows it out, freezing the leader thief to the ground by his shoes and disabling two of the guns. He grabs the fourth gun and twists it around the owner, effectively immobilizing him. He then grabs the last gun and crushes then throws the pieces behind him. "Wha…what are you?" "He can't be human." "Well then, what is he?""how the hell should I know?"
Oh, If only they knew.
they try to rush him, but he simply knocks them all away with the back of his hand. they shakily stand back up, and then they get a clear view of his chest. to be more specific, a huge, red S, surrounded by a yellow diamond." "you honestly expect us to believe that Superman somehow came back to life?" they all pull out knives, but he just bends them like taffy. "But ain't he dead?"One of the robbers exclaimed. "Oh Shit, oh shit!" " I'm gonna run now."
Probably.
He then smashed their two heads together, and then blew the bodies into the men still standing. The police burst in, see that Superman has made mincemeat out of the crooks, and take said crooks into custody. He notices something lying on the ground. A card, with the words "Extech" added to it. Not a clue what this is. Should probably keep it, though. With that, he flew off into metropolis, stopping three muggings, a carjacking, and five purse snatchers. All in all, a good days work. Not the best. Certainly not enough. But good work none the less. Should probably look into this Extech… whatever it is, doesn't look like it'll be any good news.
"nice work, superman!" the police chief yells after Superman's slowly fading.
looks like I just found the next member, a shadow thinks to itself as it retreats back to it's city.
