Chapter 10: flight
(Ok now for this chapter I have split the POV'S. So it will Bart first then eventually Clark.)
We all just stared at Clark when he said he could fly. Clark asked, "Okay dodging bullets, heat vision, and x ray vision are perfectly fine but flying freaks you out."
"Okay you have a point there", I said. "But what do you mean by you think you can?
"Well I did once. But I wasn't exactly myself. I was my alter ego Kal-El."
"I see where you're coming from Clark", said Batman. "But you and Kal-El are the same person. I think you always had the ability to fly you're just too afraid to try it."
"Well who can't blame him I mean he does have a fear of heights", said Chloe.
"You can do it Clark. I mean what I did tonight with those two guys. I never thought I would be able to do it. But I tried and I did it", I said.
"I think what Bart is saying is that we all believe in you. You can do anything Clark when it comes to protecting people. Wow where did that come from", said Lois.
Clark looked around at all of us. He said, "Thanks guys."
"All right already go", I said getting impatient.
Clark just stood there closing his eyes looking like he was mediating or something. Then like that he was gone was a flying blue blur in the air.
This feeling was so incredible. I was flying with no wings or anything. I know I have done this before, but that was Kal-El its Clark Kent's turn. Then I started thinking what Batman said. We are the same person. I flew full speed ahead. I might actually be faster than Bart when I flew. Suddenly I noticed the black helicopter that carried the Joker. I flew down to the copter and ripped the door open. Joker saw me and asked, "Is it a bird is it a plane?" I went in to the copter and said, "No it's Superman!" Where the hell did that come from? Then I recalled Bart calling me Superman.
"You really are not from here are you"?
"Nope. Now you're going to wish why you never hurt me or my friends!" Joker pulled out a gun and fired. I dodged the bullets but one of them hit his pilot. I grabbed the gun from Joker and punched him in the face knocking him out. I was about to leave but I realized I couldn't leave Joker and the pilot to die. It was about to crash in the water. I grabbed Joker and his pilot and flew out of the copter. A few minutes later I landed back by the warehouse. Batman tied them up and said, "Let's leave them up to the police". I nodded and asked, "Okay now what is with the costume"?
"It's my gimmick and you can't exactly see Bruce Wayne fighting crime. And unlike you I need it I don't have fancy powers like you too. But I see it in both of your eyes. I can see you and Bart doing the same thing one day."
Bart and I both laughed and Bart said, "As much as we love fighting crime and helping people we wouldn't me caught dead in costumes like those. I can just see Clark in blue tights and a red cape." We all laughed expect for Batman.
"Yeah or Bart in like a red jump suit with a lightning bolt on his chest." We laughed again.
"Fine suit yourselves. But one day you will realize that flannel isn't exactly a great disguise", said Batman.
"Um, excuse me; I hate to interrupt the Justice League. But me and Chloe would like to go home now" said Lois.
"Yeah sure. Thanks for you help Batman", I said as I shook his hand.
"Please call me Bruce unless people are around. It was great working with both of you. Now there is something that I need help with. Bart fork it over."
"Aw man, I almost got away with it to", Bart said as he handed Bruce's credit card over. We shook hands again and headed into Chloe's car and headed back home back to Smallville.
(Feedback is great as always and no, it's not over yet one more chapter and then the next story.)
