On the first day of her Internship to say that it was a bad start would be a kind thing because it was one of the most ...questionable days of her life, starting with the elevator again of all things. She did not believe in curses but if she did and she did not then she would definitely say she was cursed with elevators in the most unfortunate ways.
All she did was get in the elevator because she did not want to take the stairs because they were being cleaned right now and some of the floors were being painted right now. And things always happen like this. Why when you have a business of all days to do it, why do to this type of stuff when the new Interns were starting on their very first day and when they would all be showing up at the exact same time, and not before it. It happens a hell of a lot and just gets in the way and lot of complaints, accidents and so many injuries that can be hilariously funny just watching it and would be put on YouTube for you to be scarred for life as everyone watches it over and over again. Or you get some serious injuries and are physically scarred for life instead of mentally or just might be the both of them. And the worst someone could die because the roof caves in on them or slip on the floor making someone fall out of a window.
And hey the same thing was going on when she had an Interview in Gotham, which made her slide on the floor when she was running away. And of course, gave whatever maniac the chance to plant all of those bombs that would have killed everyone inside the building. But hey t least the elevator was still running and had no holes in it and the buttons were all fixed as well. It was a subject that she did not want to think about again because it would make her cringe and just a little curious of what happened wit everyone later and wanting to find out more. And she knew if she found out just a little more then she would have to do some investigating and she be in it neck deep with trouble and her secret would be bound to be found out by a certain someone and others that she did not want finding out.
Just stepping in the lift thing were tense, very tense as well as the atmosphere and there was whispering going on as everyone was giving each other looks. Questionable looks as if they were not trusting each other as if there was a stink in the air that there was someone here or nearby not to be trusted.
They were all looking at each other and ignoring the very tall teenage girl that had accidentally bumped into all of them somehow at the exact same time knocking them into walls and a lot of papers split on the ground.
What had caused her to be to clumsy ?, you may ask and you will receive no answer because she will not tell anyone that she knows that she had accidentally had another 'incident' just like this for the second time this week.
She was really starting to get clumsy and for some reason she got it in her mind that it would be a great idea to wear the high heels that she may have borrowed from her Mum with her knowing. And besides they were two sizes too big for her mother rather small feet. It was a present given to her Mum from her Grandfather how bought her a pair of shoes for a Christmas present just sending them in the post, he never did get the right size was either too big or too small. The man could never get the right size for his own daughter but he always seemed to get the right size for his Granddaughter that he loved so much, but always from a distance.
The men in her family never seemed to get along with each other.
Back to the high heels turns out her feet had grown since the last time that she borrowed them without asking because right now they were far too tight and they were killing her feet. Of all things in the world to cause her pain in Earth she never thought that it would be a pair of fucking high heels. Her mother was so going to kill her because the high heels were no longer High heels because there were no heels because one of them had broken off as soon as stepped into the lift and that is she bumped into the others.
No, she was going to have to break the other one off and have to walk around like a duck for the rest of the day with the awkward shoes on her feet. Unless she wore her no shoes or zoomed or super speed to next shop to buy a pair and she was still trying to decide on what to call it when she moved so fast.
But also if she did super speed ? then she would end up sanding down the bottom of the shoes to nothing and then they would just be regular shoes that she could just wear really uncomfortably.
Everyone was still giving each other suspicious looks as they all took sips from their coffees and teas, the smell of green teas was in the air and there was a lot of stressed out people in here. She could hear and feel their heart beats like a drum going off one of these people was definitely nervous and scared just being here and that was starting to get her worried.
But most of all why had someone pressed the button so that the lift would go already so that she could get there and start her work so that she could get home because right now she did not want to be here.
Press the button already.
Well if someone was not going to do it then she as sure as hell was going to do it because she did not want to be late on her first day. Like she is always somehow late for school or just makes it in on time, just barely because she likes sleeping in. Sometimes she would even be in bed when the school bell rang and it would wake her up and she would have to rush to get to school already late and in a rush sometimes missing first period and second because she broke her alarm in her sleep. That tended to happen a lot and her parents had got bed up of buying her new ones, so instead put a roaster just outside her room window in the mornings that usually waked her up. It was a good wakeup call and traffic was an even better one with screaming and pamping drivers angry with each other, road rage was a terrible thing.
She pushed past everyone and pressed the button. But still the lift was not moving which started to make her panic remembering the last time that something potentially like this could happen. And because of that she was starting to fear the worse and did not want this to happen not again.
Discreetly as best she could she used her X-ray vision to see if there was anything wrong with the elevator, just in case anything was going wrong that she may or not have to deal with. But when she searched there was nothing that she could see that could be a potential threat to anyone's life.
ELEVATOR NOT WORKING
'Great' she thought almost sulking.
She stepped out the lift and the door closed immediately after she stepped out and now the lift was going up and her luck was running out.
She quietly laughed and just smiled this always happened to her, this was just her kind of luck that she would always have. Just shaking her head, she was hoping that things like this would not happen to her all the time in the near future.
Looking at her watch she had to be up there in less than fifty seconds or she would be late and she was told if she was late on her first day then she would be better not coming back at all. It was probably just a threat that they always give like the one you tell your child " That the bad man will come to get you if you do not behave " but that was something that was never told to her.
She just quickly super speed up the stairs knocking some papers out of other people's hand and some out the window, somehow leaving the people confused and angry with themselves. Shaking their heads and really mad at the people beside them giving them the stink eye or getting the stink eye from the others.
She was hoping that this was not going to be her future always knocking papers out of other people's hands and creating such a big mess that it was unreal.
She realized that she had yellow paint on her coat when she got to the very top of the stairs and she was wearing really bright yellow. This was not her colour and this had ruined her favourite red coat that she had just bought and was now ruined. Well hopefully her Mother could get the stains out before she would kill her because she really loves that coat almost as much as she loves the jeans, which she now realized that she had paint on as well.
And the shoes were now flats and they were actually comfortable looking really good and that she was liking them so much more. Her mother was so going to kill her for this but she could live with that and she knew that she was thinking about a lot of puns, but she liked puns. They were fun and they always got the best reactions when they were said them and it was her way of saying a joke. And if you were smart enough you would get the joke but most of the time people would not and it would sound like she was saying the wrong thing and well things would just get complicated.
She was told that she had a twisted sense of humour.
Well she would just have to laugh off this incident and the rest of her day with paint on her and even some of it in her hair.
She just had to say her father would say " Buck up " and she could go about the rest of her day hoping that no one would notice or would care that she had paint on her.
Her nerves were starting to get the better of her and she did not want to be here anymore and do this job anymore. Yeah, she could live on the Farm for the rest of her life and be a Farmer she liked living on the Farm and she liked doing the jobs because she was good at them. It was hard work and she loved doing the hard earned work with manual labour and the constant effort she had to put into it all the time.
She loved working with the animals and she loved the sun working in it all the time and she loved everything about the job from the smell of the Farm to the ...ok maybe she did not like all of the smells.
Oh !
She was thinking too much again.
She looked in the Bullpen and smiled as she saw it, she was here and this place was feeling like home all her fears for nothing. And she could just feel it in her gut that this was the place where she belonged and this is what she should be doing with her life.
She saw the other Intern as well all ready to go to work as well and all looked just as excited as she was and also terrified.
There was a lot of empty desks and seats with no one in them or a sign that anyone had worked there or had ever worked there at all. They were just empty desks with no computers or the screens on them, with no lights or even scraps of paper lying around that was all scrunched up in a mood and thrown away into the bin. Though the bins were there and the bins were empty with bags in them.
CRASH
A window was broken by the chair that was getting flung through the window of the room that it used to be in the private room.
She read the name on it and it was a very familiar name and that was probably why everyone was scared and shaking as they backed away from the office trying their best to protect themselves with anything that they could hold in their hands, from paper to a keyboard.
" I QUIT " a man screamed.
The man with the silver hair then barged out of the office slamming the door behind him knocking down several pictures as he did. She could hear the frames smashing on the other side of the door and she could see a tall man behind the door who now was shrinking in fear looking like a very smaller man than he was.
This was Perry White and it was very clear that he had just quit in a raging storm.
She quickly stepped aside as he stormed passed her in a blind rage as he took a box filled of his things for his diploma, laptop, glasses and a bottle of whiskey that he was trying to hide. But she could smell the alcohol on his breath and the smell of fries and hotdogs as well.
Perry had left the building.
Well when the people got out of the lift and were running out in fear he was of the White Shark was what he was called by some people in the Journalist world and now she could see why he was called this.
She could not help but smile nervously as she raised both her eyebrows not knowing what to say or do as of what she just witnessed, along with everyone else that was just standing still. The lift was empty apart from the man that had steam coming out of his ears and was red faced with anger just clutching onto the box.
And now the security guards were just on the floor, it looked like they were here to escort him out but they were far too late and they missed all the drama that had went on.
She so wanted to know what had caused all of this to go down in the first place and she knew herself too well to know that she could not let this one go. She was a curious one and maybe just a little noisy with her powers and all but she was not one to gossip because whatever she found out she would keep to herself.
*****Cough*****
The scared man came out of his office coughed and everyone stopped staring and immediately began to work, avoiding all eye contact with everyone else and just concentrating on their work.
She chuckled at little as she pushed her glasses up walking forward to the other Intern she was going to ask him what had happened with a little small talk and she really wanted to know what had happened because she could feel the tension in the air there was a lot more to this.
" Oops, sorry " she said.
She had accidentally bumped into someone and sent them flying onto the ground without realizing it at first until they hit the ground.
She froze very still when she did it and she could feel the eyes in the back of her skull, they were all staring at her. Some of them were chewing on their pen lids and typing without looking at their screens as they continued to watch.
" I am so sorry really sorry " said Clark.
She was blushing from embarrassment because she took one look at the man that she had knocked to the ground and he was big. He was really big, tall like and everything. He had muscles to go with his muscles and that was just his arms. She was beating he had a six pack to go with it and he was so smoking hot that ...she was starting to lose focus again. He was just so hot and just titling her head to get another look in and she had to stop herself from using her Heat Vision and her X-ray vision at the same time.
And because of this she was now flushing.
" Sorrry, sorry sorry " she said rumbling.
He looked up at her and she looked in his eyes she could not help but shudder this guy was terrifying when she looked him in the eye.
He was embarrassed.
" It is fine really it was really my fault " he said laughing half heartily.
He was trying to stand up.
" Let me help you there " said Clark nervously.
She did not give him the chance to answer as she grabbed onto his arm and pulled him up to his feet in no time at all.
" Hey oh you should might want to buy me dinner first " said the man teasing.
Making her blush completely.
" Sorry " said Clark.
He just smiled at her.
" You should really stop apologizes really " said the man.
Oh, the headache she was getting this was feeling a lot like déjà vu all over again.
" I forgot to introduce myself Oliver Queen but you can just call me Oliver because Mr Queen if my Father, well used to be my Father. You must be Clark " said Oliver Queen.
She was shocked and right now she was in shock.
" H-how do you know my name ? " said Clark.
He pointed to her name tag.
" Oh, right name tag, silly me, silly Clark. I am sorry " said Clark shaking her head and face palming at the same time.
Maybe she could just jump through the ceiling or out the window right now because she wanted to do that right now. Jumping out the window seemed like a really good idea at that moment and would be some much less embarrassing than what was happening right now.
" Clark Kent " she said as smiled putting her hand out without thinking straight.
He shook her hand and this time she remembered not to make her handshake too strong.
" Nice to meet you Clark " said Oliver Queen.
He kept staring at her before she realized that she was not wearing her glasses as she touched her face realizing that she had dropped them on the floor. She went to grab them at that moment feeling weird without her glasses and biting her lip trying not to say.
" My glasses, I can't see without my glasses "
She quickly picked them up and put them on her face.
" Ollie " called a man out happily behind her.
And she knew that voice and she stood up in surprise.
" Bruce " said Oliver Queen.
He moved forward greeting the man and forgetting all about her making her very happy and hoping that she would be forgotten all about. And really hoping that he would not see her with her back turned to him and hoping that he could not see her, praying for it.
'Wait wasn't Oliver Queen the son of a Billionaire and ...!' she thought mortified.
She was walking away nervously.
" Miss Kent ? " said Bruce Wayne.
Shit Shit Shit
She turned around nervously smiling and blushing as she did.
" Mr Ba-Bruce Wayne..n-nice to see you again " she said.
Was she sweating ?
Because if she was this is how it must feel sweating and physically because she could definitely feel something on her forehead and her eyebrow.
He reached out shaking her hand and kissing her on the cheek, which she could not help but blush even more than she already was and she wondered just how red she must have been.
" Nice to see you again and I see that you met Ollie here " said Bruce.
She just shook her head.
" Ollie you do know that she is still in High School, right ? " said Bruce.
She swallowed nervously as the both of them were teasing and laughing at each other as if they had not seen each other in a lifetime. Good old friends reuniting and she just had to be quite literally stuck in the middle of it and she really was thinking of jumping out of the window at that very moment.
