P.S. This story takes place before, during, and after the Justice League episode "Destroyer".

"Clark Kent."
"Clark, where are you?"
"Bruce? I'm at my apartment getting ready for work, why?"
"Nothing, just wanted to make sure."
"Sure of what, exactly?"
"..."
"Bruce?"
Sigh. "He's back."
"Who's back?"
"Listen Clark I'm trying to protect you."
"Who's back?"
"Clark I-"
"Bruce! Who's. Back?"
"...Darkseid."
"..."
"Clark, I need yo-" ...click.
The phone Clark was using was crushed into pieces. He shook his hand off of debris and walked over to the open window, staring off into the morning sunrise.
"Darkseid is back..."
Clark grabbed his suit coat and walked over to the door.
"But I will be ready for him."
"So you want to be a photographer, dont ya kid?"
Perry White stood in his office. A newcomer in Metropolis came in for the new photographer job and he was seeing if the kid had what it takes.
"Whats your name anyway kid?"
The newcomer smiled brightly, stood up from the chair he was sitting on, and raised his hand for Perry to shake, "The names Jones, Alfred F. Jones."
Clark entered the Daily Planet, late. He had a bad enough morning already ,but after he left his apartment he had to stop about ten car accidents, slow down a train that was going to crash, and send Mxyztplk back to his dimension. To make matters worse...well lets see what happens when he entered the Planet.
"KENT!"
Clark spun around on his heals to see a very angry Perry White.
"Chief, I'm sorry I was late its just-"
"I dont have time for your excuses," interrupted Perry, "right now Metallo is tearing up downtown Metropolis so I want you and our new photographer to get down there strait away and give me some Superman fighting stories!"
Right when he said that a young man with blond hair and blue eyes suddenly came at Perry's side.
"Right on it, Chief!" The new kid grabbed Clark's arm and started to pull him to the door. And MAN did this kid have strength!
"Oh ya and Kent, be sure to tell him about the...blue guy." The chief was all smiles (if he could) and went back to his office. As Clark was being pulled by the kid he was actually trying to get free. He was even using his Superman strength but the boy would not let go until they reached just a few blocks away from where Metallo was.
"Ok, now lets do this!" He fist bumped in the air and ran off around some buildings, leaving Clark who had on a puzzled expression.
'Who is he?' thought Clark. He shook his head, 'Better save that for later, right now I have to deal with Metallo.' Clark raced down an alleyway and all of a sudden Superman flew into the sky heading towards to where the destruction was taking place, but there was one problem though.
The new photographer was no where to be found.
Authors notes:
Really wanted to get this done. Had ideas for a while but they just kept disapearing.
I might not update for a little bit, my grandma's come over so I'm gonna spend some time with her.
THANKS FOR THE REVIEWS!;D
