Lab

- Lex Luthor's office -

Lex: Veronica has a seat.

Verónica: So why did you need such an urgent meeting?

Lex: I wish to acquire some of your technology for research and information on the development of biological enhancers, also as a scientist I wish to invite you to do research with certain alien materials.

Veronica: You mean the ones that attacked us recently, that were related to Superman?

Lex: exactly

Veronica: And what do I get in return?

Lex: I'll give you some samples to conduct research in your organization and some results of my research in exchange for both technologies.

Veronica: What technology are we talking about specifically?

Lex: computational processing and biological enhancers

Veronica: "If you knew that I possess one of those bodies, but I haven't started investigating it yet, I guess it's about time, I should accept if I don't, it might look suspicious after all, they are alien samples."

Verónica: I smiled as I told her, it's okay, we have a deal, the change will take place these days, as for helping you with the investigation, I think I don't have enough time, a company cannot manage itself

Lex: It's a shame, he says disappointed.

- Outside Luthor Corp -

Steven: You look worried Veronica, the meeting didn't go as you expected.

Verónica: It's not that, the meeting was very fruitful, but I don't know if the agreement is worth it, our company needs a strong ally, but I don't know if Luthor is the best option.

Steven: Well, only time will tell.

Verónica: well leaving that aside I want you to accompany me to my laboratory I want your help with something

Steven: Okay, I'll help you any way I can.

Veronica: you will be of help.

steven: I'll call Deadshot and banshee to take care of you while I go to the car

veronica: ok

Steven: Deadshot, Banshee, they ran into something.

Banshee: None all very normal

Deadshot: None, although there were a few people hiding and security was tight, they all had the Luthor Corp logo on them.

Steven: a good job, go take care of the boss I'll go get the car

- Lex Luthor's office -

Lex: Mercy, what do you think of her bodyguard?

Mercy: Above average, but he's quite cautious.

Lex: Can you defeat him?

Mercy: Of course.

Alex: It's okay.

Mercy: Are we going to fight them?

Lex: No, they are potential allies but it all depends on this project together, if we are successful my company will be on top of the world

- 4 hours later -

Steven: Veronica, I'm going to walk you to your lab for 2 hours, then I have to go see Bianca, she's been alone all day.

Veronica: Okay I understand I also want to go see my daughter, follow me

steven: okay

Steven: "Trust me enough to take me to your secret lab or big changes are coming."

- Veronica's Laboratory -

Veronica: Have you seen an alien before?

Steven: No because don't tell me you have one in this lab.

Veronica: That's right, we are investigating some way to be able to pass their abilities or strengths to the human body or replicate them through a serum but we are still in development, Lex Luthor at the request that we join him to carry out this investigation, our technology both computational as a serum it is much more advanced than his, that is why he asked for our help

Veronica: With this team, I could advance more quickly in the development of a serum to increase the strength, speed, and resistance of people, I would monopolize this new market

Steven: But I think it will take decades, it may not even have the expected results.

Veronica: That's right, that's why we have to stay ahead of anyone who develops this pathway including Lex, whoever controls this new serum will dominate the world.

Veronica: We're here.

Steven: Oh wow, this is the alien, "Fuck I can't believe it's Faora, what's with the body, is he dead or in suspended animation?"

Veronica: quite beautiful right, this is the body of a Kryptonian as they call themselves who arrived recently and caused great chaos in the city of the metropolis and the entire world

Steven: amazed I exclaimed, I can't believe you managed to get your hands on a Kryptonian

Verónica: It was a bit difficult but we found her body and managed to bring her to these facilities until now we have only taken blood and no organs since we have barely been able to penetrate her with a needle

Steven: And is she dead?

Veronica: I see her more dead than alive

Steven: "How do I give him clues about sunlight", I was thinking of a series from when he was younger, in which the hero had a power that allowed him to absorb sunlight and then project it as rays

Veronica: oh interesting theory, because we didn't test it, you can always add more tests to the existing ones

Steven: Good luck, Do you happen to have kryptonite? I'd like to do some experiments with it in Gotham.

Veronica: How is it so rare I think we only have a few grams, I could give you only 10

Steven: "Hmm, it will be a bit difficult to make some bullets or a dagger out of it, but it could be useful if I happen to meet Superman or another Kryptonian", Ok, that will do.

Steven: While you could go ahead with the blood draw and study it.

Veronica: ok, take this prototype x-serum, it improves body strength, speed, and endurance, but it's not as good as we expected, it's still in development but I think it's good enough

Steven: why are you giving me something so important?

Veronica: "It's the only sample I have, you better not die", you're going to a very dangerous place, so take it as a gift for your safety, besides it's not the only thing we're developing, after all the imperial squad he needs to be much stronger than superman

Steven: I see, can you let me take Marcus and two of his squad members?

Veronica: okay, they will get ready to go with you at the allotted time, go home, your daughter is waiting for you

Steven: thanks to you too

-Steven's Apartment-

Bianca: Welcome daddy

Steven: Hello princess, how was your day?

Bianca: overall good, I learned new things and I'm slowly progressing with control of my powers

Steven: Well that's a good sign.
