[In the middle of the previous night, a note will be left under the door of Clark Kent.  It reads as follows:]

Clark,

There are urgent matters to discuss.  Be on top of Community Housing 7 at midnight.

[The note is not signed and not dated.  Mysterious letter is mysterious.  The only question is whether or not Clark will meet him there at the ( Read more... )

[In the evening, Molly's taking a break from hat making in favor of taking a walk. It's cold and it's boring, so Molly's decided this isn't such a good idea. Still, she was told by her parents that getting some fresh air is good. Right. Consider it's her parents, she's not sure if she believes that.

At some points, she'll encounter rocks in the pathway. Being bored, Molly picks them up and, with a brief pink glow in her eyes, she throws them as hard as she can.

Those rocks pretty much disappear far, far in the horizon, never to be heard from again.]

[...Molly Hayes, the girl who works with Clark. Apparently she has some metahuman powers of her own. Strange, she seemed so anxious to meet Clark when he arrived. Perhaps she was knew Clark through the Daily Planet. After all, it she was working with him on starting it up, it seemed. And right now, there was no one else around...

From the shadows nearby, she'll hear a deep voice gruffly address her. He's still mostly concealed, though.]

Quite an arm you have.

[She jumps at that and lets out a little "eek!" sound and spins around, trying to see who's stalking her. Molly isn't the type to peer into shadows or make out if a shadow looks like a person, so upon finding nothing, she frowns, although it looks more like a pout.]

Yeah, and I'll use it on you if you don't come out!

[While she's spooked, he'll move through the shadows and appear from a different side. Though he's still concealed to a degree, she should be able to make out his distinctive cowl.]

You really don't want to do that.

[Oh ffff-now the direction of the voices changed. She spins around again, but this time, she sees something. It looks familiar - very familiar. But now that he's "come out", she relaxes and tries to squint in the darkness.]

Maybe I won't. Maybe. [Strange people wander around at night, after all. The same could apply to here, despite the familiar cowl. Where has she seen it before...]

[How about when an authorative, no-nonsense voice is thrown in with it?]

Trust me. You don't.

[Now, Molly isn't scared of much. She faced down Mr. Wilder calmly, despite the helpless act she threw up. She stood her ground when a monster the size of Godzilla was about to step on her.

But that voice? Makes her straighten up a bit.]

Fuh... Fine. I'll take your word for it, I guess.

Good.

[He'll slide out a little further. Recognize him now, Molly?]

[And now she can see his outline as well as parts of his costume. Oh yeah, she recognizes this. Excuse her slack jaw and wide eyes.]

Oh. My. Gosh.

[...Well, she clearly is familar with Batman. Maybe she was from Metropolis after all. Right now, he says nothing and just waits for her to compose herself.]

[You might have to wait a while, Batman. Molly rushes up until she's a few feet in front of him and stands up on her toes, a big grin on her face.]

You're Batman! Is Robin around here? Or maybe Nightwing! Oh I love Nightwing! Are you gonna get a new Batca-

[And now she gasps and clasps her hands over her mouth. Superman accepted it well, but, well... Batman's a bit of a scary guy.]

[He will frown at her, and narrow his eyes slightly. Personal space, Molly. Batman likes a lot of it. But it seems like she got the picture before too long, so his expression will ease slowly back to neutrality.]

You've heard of me. How?

[Riiight, she's backing up a couple of steps.]

Uh...

[He won't approach. He's not looking to scare her too much more than he already had. ...She hadn't done anything wrong, either. But he'll wait until she answers the question before taking another action.]

[Well, she told Superman... It wouldn't be long until he got the information from him, she knows that much, at least. Might as well hear it from her instead. So, she holds her hands behind her back and glances away.]

I... kinda think there's some kinda mutant who likes to travel between worlds and stalk other super heroes and write stories about them.
