Chapter 3
Bonnie pulled the car when her phone rang. Unknown number but it could be a
lead for her investigation.
Bonnie : Hello ?
Mon-El : Hey, it's Mike. Where are you ?
Bonnie : Why do you want to know ?
Mon-El : Miss Grant asked me to join you. You're going to be my journalist buddy for now on.
Bonnie : she smiled a little I'm on Armond Street. When can you be here ?
Mon-El : In a few minutes. I know some shortcuts.
Bonnie : I'm waiting.
The young man hung up. He was actually on Catco's rooftop. He looked around
deciding on the fastest way to reach Bonnie. When he was ready he quickly
jumped on buildings and landed in an alley. He fixed his hair and clothes
before taking his glasses out of his pocket. He placed them on and walked to
Bonnie's car. He knocked on the window.
Bonnie : she looked up and rolled it down Oh you're already here.
Mon-El : Told you it was a short cut.
Bonnie : Very efficient she left the car Cat filled you in ?
Mon-El : Actually no.
Bonnie : What do you know about aliens ?
Mon-El : A lot. Why ?
Bonnie : I'm investigating on an alien weapons black market.
Mon-El: Sounds dangerous.
Bonnie : You're scared ? she smirked
Mon-El : I'm never scared.
Bonnie : she nodded I have a lead. Maybe you can scare him a little.
It turned out their lead didn't need to be scared to start spilling. He told that he
wanted to be mentioned in the article but under a false name. Bonnie said it
might happen but she knew she needed a reliable source. 'Harry' told them that
the trafic was generating from an old restaurant downtown. She paid him and
they went to check it.
Mon-El: You act more like a policewoman than a journalist.
Bonnie : I just love to investigate she tried the door It's locked of course.
Mon-El : Let me try.
Bonnie : Alright.
He pretented to struggle a little before opening the door.
Bonnie : Excellent she turned the camera of her phone on and went in
Mon-El : he whispered Let me go first, it's dangerous.
Bonnie : Go ahead, Superman.
He groaned under his breath when he heard that nickname. He wasn't a fan of
the man of steel. He shook his head and they looked around the restaurant. No
clue was found. The place was empty.
Bonnie : I'm going to kill him.
Mon-El : He's probably long gone.
She groaned.
Mon-El : Sorry but I'm sure he's more scared of his boss than you.
Bonnie : Is that because I'm petite ?
Mon-El : he smiled You're kind of adorable.
Bonnie : We need other leads but thanks.
That night
Mon-El was out for a walk after his dinner. His day was interesting. Working
with Bonnie was...He couldn't quite finish this sentence with the right word.
She was funny, sexy, and bossy. He smiled while thinking about her. His hand
reached to fix his glasses and he realized he had forgotten them at home.
Not a big deal because it's dark he thought.
That was when he heard a car driving fast down the street. He rolled his eyes
because it was stupid and reckless but then froze. A woman was walking on the
crosswalk and was in danger.
Mon-El : under his breath Damnit.
The world slowed down around him as he ran faster than a human being could.
He zoomed past the crazy car and grabbed the woman. They got out of the road
and reached the sidewalk in less than a few seconds.
Mon-El : Are you ok ?
Woman : What happened ?
Mon-El : Oh um He noticed her cane and her sunglasses I just saved you from a car.
Woman : Thank you so much.
Mon-El : You want me to walk you home ?
Woman : Yes please.
They walked away.
Bonnie left the shadows where she was hiding. Questions were jumping in her
mind crazily. What just happened ? Did he really...
Oh my god he's probably an alien ! She thought with excitement. She was glad
she witnessed all of this. A hero in National city. I could be his Lois Lane ! the
thought exploded in her mind and she grinned.
