There was no mistaking, these same eyes were fiercely glaring at Clark and it's was in these few milliseconds that Clark realized he didn't know if this figure was a friend or foe. But precisely as he made this observation there was a flash of gold as something came whipping towards him.
Before Clark could do much else, having been taken by surprise, he lifted his arm as the golden lasso came flying at him. The impact of the weapon was not something Clark had experienced since the Zod invasion. The sheer force and strength which had been bolted at him had pushed him meters backwards, let alone the harsh golden metal lasso which stung as it slapped against his body. It was then that Clark started to reassess the seriousness of the situation he had found himself in since the appearance of the blue eyes.
The figure, now completely visible, was standing in a defensive position around the dug up patch of grass where the Krypton command chip lay. The person was clad in a blue and red suit with golden metal like outlining the material, silver star-like shapes were lined along her body. The womans legs were covered to just above the knee with boots lined with the same golden material. The person's raven colored hair was acutely framing the precise jaw and defined features of their face. Her entire being sent vibes which screamed fierce and powerful and Clark felt a twinge of admiration go through him.
She kept her eyes locked on Clark as she crouched lower and with frightening speed snatched up the Krypton command chip. She placed it on one of the stars on her suit and Clark could only watch as the command chip sank into the silver material, the fibres closing in around it and concealing it from the outside world.
"Wait. Please, stop. Do you know what that is?" Clark called out, reaching his hand out as the dark haired woman straightened up.
No answer was returned as her eyes finally left Clark and stared over to the other side of the clearing; she leant forward and then took off, running with incredible grace and speed. Clark was quick to respond as they had reached halfway across the clearing when he reached his hand out to grab hold of her arm. The word " Wait" halfway out of his mouth as his hand gripped onto her braced forearm, it was in this moment the figure thrusted her hand down on his arm and stopped running completely. Clark was floating nearby after the force of losing contact with her had pushed him back, he waited and was slightly shocked. She was strong, very strong. Much stronger than he had anticipated, but that was understandable when you believed yourself to be the last of an alien race with incredible attributes never seen before.
The dirt around the woman's standing figure had been kicked up when she had skidded to a stop. She then turned to face Clark, her golden whip in hand, as she crouched as though ready to pounce. Clark prepared for a fight, his hand closed into fists and he leant in, to an almost lying down position in the air.
She darted forward, making the first move, she brought her arm back as Clark flew forward, pushing his body to an incredible speed. The collision was hard, steel meeting steel and from the force of their colliding the woman slid backwards, kicking up more dirt and Clark was left standing where they had hit.
The woman then leapt forward her whip coming down against Clark in flashes. She moved with such stealth and precision that, in another situation, it could be admired. The lasso moved fluidly as though an extension to the womans arm and without rest came surging towards Clark. He grabbed hold of it as the strike came flashing towards him, he pulled on the whip and the woman rushed forward.
She slapped her forearm across his face, her metal braces coming into contact with his hard jaw. He flashed his hand forward and held the same forearm in a vice-like grip. She used her other arm to tug on the rest of her lasso and wrapped it around her own leg. She kicked her leg backwards and Clark was pulled forward onto her knee, the start of her high boots dug into his hard stomach.
Clark decided that it could no longer be avoided and the only way to stop this woman would be to truly bring on the offensive attack. He let go of the woman's lasso and threw his arms across her legs and she fell to the ground, he reached down towards her but she had flown across the earth and was fast approaching him again. This time when her arm came rushing before him he brought his hand against it and pushed his free palm hard against her chest. The woman was pushed backwards but sprang forward again and planted a well-placed kick against Clark's side. He flashed his arm out but she ducked before his hand could come into contact with her, instead it collided with a nearby tree, sending splinters and chunks of wood flying everywhere.
Diana was about to force her elbow into the mans side when he grasped her shoulders and flung her against a tree she had previously ducked in front of. She was slightly shocked, not expecting him to recover so fast.
The appearance of this man had at first been intriguing, she curiously had looked on as he investigated the dug up patch of earth. Recognition was written all over his face, but as soon as he had reached for the object which lay in the dirt, the thrumming which had previously occupied itself inside her head grew so loud it had begun to hurt. Though once she whipped him with the lasso and pocketed the object the drumming ceased. That was when Diana's suspicions regarding the man had begun. They had heightened once the fight had ensued and by now she was certain he was somehow connected to the death of the child. His strength alone made her sure that he did not originate from Earth and his clothing suggests he belongs to the Kryptonian race, she had seen many people wearing similar suits in the visions that's the girls marks gave her.
Diana was finding it difficult to piece things together-but then again it would be easier of this infernal fight were over. Her thoughts went from frustration at this fight to another more ferocious attitude as she slammed her forehead into the man's and twisted her arm free. She brought the back of her palm across his face and he slammed his hand into her arm. The man grasped Diana's other arm and crossed them over it, his steel hold was keeping her in place.
"Look, just stop attacking me. Im not going to hurt you." Each word escaped him as a gasp, as Diana fought for her freedom. She slowly began to settle down, her resisting to his strong grip eventually ceased completely and she stood staring at the man. His deep blue eyes stared right back. His grip started to loosen up and Diana saw her chance and jumped into the air and kicked him backwards with both feet hitting hard against his chest. She didn't wait to see what became of him but instead ran back to where her fallen lasso lay and snatched it from the ground. She turned and just in time as he came rushing towards her through the air she lashed her whip forward and it wrapped around him.
"What are you?" Diana called to him, tugging lightly on her beloved golden lasso, to make sure it had a firm grip on the man.
"I am a resident of Earth but I originate from Krypton." The words flowed from the dark haired man's mouth and his forehead creased. Diana's mouth couldn't help but pick up to a slight smirk at the man's confusion put of what he had admitted. He was not the first, and pray, not the last to be ensnared by her Lasso of Truth. but hey being the former Godess of Truth has its kicks.
"When did you arrive and what is your purpose being on the planet?" Her voice was calm but commanding and the man with the deep blue eyes glowered at her.
" I was sent here by my parents, Lara and Jor-El, 33 years ago, closely before the destruction of Krypton. The sole purpose of me being sent to grow up here was to preserve and hopefully one day re-start the Kryptonian race. A mission which can no longer be completed." His voice wavered slightly on the last sentence, he lowered his eyes to the ground and his fists clenched at his sides as he tried to break free from the indestructible coils which bound him. Diana stared at him, her prior suspicions about the tall man were becoming more and more outside the truth.
" Are you aware that one of your own, who too had been residing on Earth was murdered here in the recent days that have passed?" she had lowered her voice, speaking slowly and watching as his head quickly snapped up, eyes wide, it was visible that his breath had quickened.
"No. I believed I was alone here." His face was now calculating, clearly behind his creased forehead many thoughts were spinning through his head. Diana knew enough now that the man was no immediate threat to her, regardless of their prior… predicament. She also now knew that he honestly had no connection to the death of the girl and that he could even be a helpful asset in finding out who had killed the girl. She flicked her wrist and the lasso un coiled and fell from him. He stayed kneeling there for a little while and then slowly rose to his feet lifting his hands in surrender.
"It's quite alright," Diana said to him calmly, "I know you are an honest man, I mean no further harm to you Son of Lara Of Jor-El." She placed her arm across to her shoulder, a salute to show peace between each other.
" Its Kal, Kal-El and thank you. I mean no harm to you either. Who exactly are you?" He spoke with a deep and firm voice. Diana stared at the man before him, his tall frame and muscular build made him look as though he was a built warrior, the sides of his mouth seemed to always be slightly lifted, as though from a lifetime of smiling and his raven coloured dark hair had fallen out of place from their previous fight. He- Kal, Kal seemed to be waiting for a response and a light smirk played on his lips, though from his posture he was still slightly wary of her.
She lowered her hand from her shoulder and coiled in her lasso, while still staring down at the gleaming golden weapon she answered in a confident and proud voice.
"I am Diana of Themyscira, an Amazon Princess. I have been called here by a Kryptonian child just before she was murdered by sources unknown. I remain here to search for the perpetrator to bring them to justice for the crime committed. I cannot count on the threat that this individual poses to have passed. I hope that I can find an ally in you, Kal-El."
His blue eyes had brightened curiously and then equally darkened throughout her declaration but finally rested with a slightly playful expression which surprised Diana.
"Well Diana," His voice comfortable and less weighted with authority as it was when he had spoken before, " I think that is something you can count on."
His blue eyes brightened and a small smile spread across his face as Diana took a step towards him, initiating what would be the first of many discussions under the moonlight between the outsiders who had found themselves on Earth.
Please review and tell me what you think! Have a lovely day!
