Well, I guess by this point I don't need to explain what the Fundraiser DVD is all about (if you don't know by now, where the heck have you been?
) But just in case you're completely at sea, you'll find all the details on this project
here .
Now that the Fundraiser has been officially launched, over the next week or so I'll be posting teasers from most of the stories on the DVD. Just so you know what you're missing.
Today's story is:
Better to have Loved and Lost
A Tank/Wendy Challenge Fic
By Tank Wilson and Wendy Richards
A 2006 Fundraiser Story
"What are you up to, Clark?" Her voice was soft but there was no mistaking the tint of pain and anger that colored the edges.
Suddenly, an all-too-familiar sound caught her ear and pulled her attention away from the coffin and its occupant. Lois caught sight of the spandex-clad hero of millions as he approached and greeted Perry and Jimmy, who'd been standing outside the memorial hall. Superman leaned close and spoke, too quietly for her to hear, to Perry. He then turned and caught her eye. A chill when through her body as she plainly read the anguish on his face. It was clear that Superman was in pain, and that much of that pain was directed toward her. His concern and sympathy for her was like a physical blow. She had to look away.
Her mind was in turmoil. If Superman was standing out there, then how could Clark be in the coffin pretending to be dead? It didn't make any sense. She turned back to the figure of her husband lying so still in the pillowed silk. If the person in the coffin wasn't Superman pretending to have died, then it was someone who was actually dead... but who? It couldn't be...
Her hands began to shake. "No." Her voice cracked. "No, no, no." Her head shook slowly back in forth in denial. Tears began to roll down her cheeks as she slipped to her knees in front of the casket. "No!"
Gosh! I wonder what happens next.
