(clark)"Yeah well I've been trying to focus on other things."

(clark)"Mark wait you idiot shit that idiot never learns."

Smack!

(clark)"Damn Mark I tried to warn ya don't just rush in blind you fool Oh shit Kate watch out!"

(clark)"damn what I am the universal shield today. Watch yourself."

(kate)"Damnit yeah sorry about that."

(clark)"Anyway just glad you're safe now where's Mark? there! wait a minute I hear something coming and It's Fast!" That's omniman guess he's finally out of the hospital. look at him stealing all the fun guess I can't afford to fall behind "Let's go!" Boom Boom!

I slam my fist on the ground creating a shockwave that throws the flaxans into the air omniman catches them and slams them back down into the ground with his fist, One of the flaxans tries to stab me with his blade and it shatters on impact. Seeing this the flaxans start retreating again.

(clark)"Oh man they're retreating again hopefully they'll stay gone this time."

Boom Oh shit omniman followed them in!

(mark)"DAD!"

. I pat him on his back

(clark)"hey man he'll be alright for now let's get anyone injured help and clean up this mess ok?"

(mark)"Alright man."

(clark)"There we go!" alright I scan the area with my x-ray vision, thankfully there weren't many people in the area this time. after 30 minutes of clean up cecil has a talk with robot that I overhear and the conversation frightens me something isn't right. Huh, oh he's coming over.

(clark)"Hello cecil."

(cecil)"Hey kid listen I haven't told many people this yet, but the guardians of the globe are dead."

(clark)"WHAT! How?"

(cecil)"I'm trying to find that out kid, but for right now I need to put a new team together-"

(clark)"And let me guess you want me to be on this team right."

(cecil)"Yes I do."

(clark)"Alright listen cecil I won't promise anything."

(cecil)"Look we're having tryouts soon after the funeral."

(clark)"I'll be there."

Boom Boom! sonic boom. Boom Boom! thud

(clark)"oh damn ma's gonna kill me for that one."

(martha)"Claaaaark!"

(clark)"Sorry ma."

(martha)"Ughhhh Clark what am I gonna do with you?"

(clark)"Sorry anyway ma I need to go to a funeral tomorrow so I'm gonna head to bed a little early tonight Love you ma."

(martha)"Love you Clark."

(clark)"Oh boy what to wear maybe I'll just go in my suit as superman, Oh shit I almost forgot Kate our date's tomorrow oh man a date on a funeral day that just sounds like a recipe for disaster ughhh."

The next day.

Alright guys

(clark)"I'm heading off now I'll se you later." Boom Boom! maybe I shouldn't make a crater at the graves, "Oh it looks like everyone's already here."

(mark)"Hey superman down here."

(clark)"Hey mark how are ya doing man?"

(mark)"I'm alright just can't believe the guardians are dead."

(clark)"Me neither man, but I'd say today is already a pretty bad day let's try not to bring down the mood too much. Hey Mrs. Grayson how are you holding up."

(debbie)"Oh clark dear I'm doing alright I'm just happy nolan isn't in one of those coffins today."

(clark)"wait a minute that's how omniman got hurt?"

(debbie):yes he was at guardians headquarters the day they were all killed."

(clark)"Well it's a good thing he's still here with us hopefully we can catch this guy. anyway mark have you seen the team?"

(mark)"Well eve and robot are here, but I haven't seen the others."

(clark)"Oh well I'll go see if eve knows where they are. Hey eve."

(eve)"Oh hey superman."

(clark)"Hey eve did Kate come today?"

(eve)"No I think she and rex stayed back at hq."

(clark)"Wait her and rex?"

(eve)"Yeah why is something wrong?"

(clark)"no just thought they'd be here, oh it looks like they're starting."

The funerals star as omniman arrives, but something doesn't feel right this doesn't sound like a man who just lost his friends, especially since he was taken down so badly as well. Wait this heavy beating It's cecil why is his heart racing so fast and his breathing is ragged almost as if he's angry with omniman. Does he think omniman had something to do with this? That can't be right? Looks like I'll need to keep my eyes out wait a minute omniman he's staring at me. I look him in his eyes and the tension I feel is almost like he's trying to size me up. The eulogy ends and we head over to the actual grave where we bury the bodies to prevent the public from robbing their graves.

As it ends I notice again omniman is glaring at me. Is he trying to intimidate me well I can play that game too, I wait for a clear single and I glare back at omniman with my heat vision flaring. The sight of it seems to anger him almost as if he's offended that I would bare my fangs at him. I take my leave but before doing so I run into eve.

(clark)"Hey eve mind if I come back with you? I want to see if kates still up for our date tonight.

(eve)"Sure Clark no problem let's go."

(clark)"Want me to fly us there?"

(eve)"sure why not."

(clark)"Alright all passengers hold on tight."

Boom Boom! Me and eve arrive back at the teams HQ and I hear multiple people in the shower. My heart drops when I see who steps out.

(kate)"Eve clark I thought you guys were at the funeral.

(eve)"the funeral just ended."

kate suddenly gasps and turns red. Seeing this eve walks into the shower and sees rex with kate. Eve is pissed rex tries to explain himself, but eve just leaves. Me I'd say I'm more hurt than mad. I look at kate and see tears in her eyes, but I as I look at rex I feel a rage come over me I glare at him and I feel my eyes starting to sizzle. As I stare at rex I can see true terror in his eyes, but before I kill him I just stop.

(clark)"Rex you are a spineless worthless piece of shit! you aren't worth killing. And you Kate enjoy your life with that backstabbing loser you two deserve each other." Boom Boom! I smash through the walls of the Hq and head home with tears in my eyes not noticing the figure above.
