Hi Blueowl!
She hadn’t even felt this way when Superman had left for Nightfall.
Awwww
”Trapped, alone, and . . . I don’t know. It felt like being buried alive,” he said.
Lois frowned. “Did anything like that happen when you were younger?”
Nah, he was never in a tight, confining space, as far as he can remember.
”Baron Sunday. He’s crazy! He’s going to try to kill Superman now! You’ve got to warn him! I’m Zi–“
And that's what they call a ‘lead’ in them gumshoe novels.
It was time to take Star up on her offer of help. There had to be a way to combat this insanity directly.
They could send a zombie? Hmm…Lex isn’t dead yet, is he? This is in Season One?
From what I understand, doing anything like this more than once every twelve hours is nuts. And let me tell you, if practitioners classify anything as ‘nuts’ you know it’s all sorts of bat wing crazy and should never be done!”
Yeah, like if the Joker says that it’s too violent, you know that you have gone way overboard.
The snake appeared on his chest.
The constraining suit bit was really clever!
The magic has to come from within,” Star explained. “Some people suggest carrying a keepsake can help, perhaps a family heirloom, something to draw strength from.
Yeah, but Clark carrying Lois around the whole day will look mighty suspicious.
. However, in doing so, that will mean being exposed to the curse. I don’t know what that will mean for you. Even though the curse is specifically designed to target the person the Boker wants to harm, you may be just as affected. I don’t know.”
So, Lois will become afraid of tight dark places? Does this mean she will no longer crawl into air ducts because of said phobia?
“That’s a risk I’m willing to take. I won’t let this Boker hurt Clark or anyone else again if I can help it,” Lois promised.
Clark won’t like that one bit. Best not tell him beforehand.
Onto part 6! Hmm…wait…
Michael
