Rp of Metropolis takes places here
-
-Dur-El awoke in the remnants of what was once Lexcorp after the iv in his arm finally ran try of the extreme narcotic they used to subdue him and run tests on his genetic structure. He was on a metal lab table held down by steel straps but now that he wasent under the influence of the drug he flexed his body easily breaking them. He busted through the wall into what looked like a war zone looking up he saw a drone shoot him with a laser that knocked him back into Lexcorp but as he slowly got back up his skin now had a shine to it that was just right to reflect blasts such as the one he was just hit with. He used his super speed to take off out of Metropolis and heading towards Gotham.-
-
She watched and listened to him. He was something to be respected and she knew that her body was starting to adjust to the new inputs but her mind was still running at 1000 miles an hour about what she was about to do. Asking herself questions like, is this the right thing? Is the risk worth it? Would making the perfect hero be the right idea? It was too late now she thought as she felt him pick her up and hold her to him. Reaching out she gripped the container of red energy and held it close as he held her in his arms. His movements where stable at first but then she jerked when he took off like a bullet from a rail gun. She curled in closer as the force of the wind was harsh like a tropical storm was close. Closing her eyes her legs moved some against his arms as she tried to curl in closer for protection. In this moment she was showing just how frail she was that she was still just human and had fear just like everyone else. The truth was she used that fear to fuel her she was done now her crime fighting days officially over and she was sitting here working on training the next hero probably greater than this planet had ever seen. Closing her eyes and trusting him she rested feeling the water spray against her cool but harsh at the speeds they were going. He may have been shielding her but at these speeds it still was a harsh trip.
As they landed she caught her breath and looked up to him her hair frazzled and heading against him from the force of the winds that had caught it. Then she felt his chest expand and then heard the explosion and peaked out to see the debris of the droid scattered about the ground she knew what it was and knew now that they had made it to what was left of good old Metropolis. Things really went to hell after the war and after superman left. Hearing his words she looked down at her container and checked the power level on the magnetic containment and sighed it would hold tell they arrived. Adjusting again her legs loved slightly but not much she was regaining control of them slowly it seemed and then nodded and she felt like she was slammed against him when he took off surprised at the speeds they went. Where they stopped though surprised her though it really shouldn’t have she had a hidden lair as well and what better way than to hide it in plain sight she thought.
Feeling him reach out while still holding her and the elevator lower she staid quit. She didn’t have anything to say to him quite yet. When the elevator came to a slow stop she sighed and saw the doors open. Sure enough it looked like your standard advanced lab. When he stepped out and something grabbed him his hand left holding her legs and they dropped to the ground and she found she was able to hold herself up though not the best she sighed. “One step at a time Muse one step at a time. Remember when Wayne broke his back it was one step at a time.” She then heard his comment about being bullet proof. “That’s why I’m going to make you more than bullet proof.” She said and took a breath and took a step and stumbled shoulder slamming into the wall as she caught herself quickly a hand came out to tell him to stay back as she righted herself and took another smaller step this was shaky but doable. It was then that she realized her crime fighting Carrere was over for good. Carrying that container like it was precious she had also snuck one of the bullets his body had pushed out with her in her belt. She needed a new body and Lex corps had the technology she needed for that her company didn’t touch genetics at least not on that level.
As she turned a corner she collapsed and a Droid came around the corner heading straight for Dur-El it completely by passed her light she wasn’t even there. Reaching into her belt she pulled out a batarang and tossed it as it flew out it quickly turned around and shot around the corner and into the power core of the droid and set off an EMP that overloaded the power supply and the droid blew up almost right in Dur-El’s face. Taking a deep breath realizing the droid was destroyed she called back. “You okay? And maybe you should go first.” She said sitting there for a moment before slowly fighting to get back to her feet using the wall to stabilize herself.
-
-Dur-El nodded and past her heading into the main chamber of the lab where he had broken free from. His body was much stronger since that had and his mind sharper but he still felt a cold feeling like he was being watched by something that new to much and his fear was soon made into reality as a heavy footstep was heard behind him and the creature was half cybernetic and half human or better said half metahuman as it began to churn up the chemicals around the lab before he filled the new fluid that it had created into five syringe.
Dur-El walked over and picked up the woman who was teaching him though he just now realized he really didnt know who she was. He found a huge metal crate and put the woman inside it for protecting from the chemicals that were most likely deadly to a human.
Dur-El then used his speed to be in the creatues feet where he roared at a high pitch that made the circuits in the creature’s cybernetics go crazy which drove it to try and stab him with two of the needless but they bent and then as the solution cracked and fell onto his skin it began to steam so he quickly moved over and stuck his arm in water to wash away the acid.
Dur-El saw the creature above the woman holding a needle up preparing to stab her so he pulled one of the bone spurs that were in his shoulder off before throwing it as half as he could imbedding it in the creature spinal cord so it was stuck standing up and it was making a face like it wanted to scream but the cyber half took away its ability to express its emotions. Dur-El knew if Brainic got his way all humans would be a creature like this or worse.
He then lead the woman over to the Luthor vaults where everything secrete was kept and once He opened his eyes wide looked through the steel seeing files and also pieces of rock{dur-el dosent know what kryptonite is yet}. He punches the key pad making it unlock the huge door and as it open Dur-El fell to one knee suffering the effects of the green rock just like the rest of his race.-
-
She watched him head to the main lab and smiled. He was brave this made her happy and then she heard it the large cyborg come walking up. Watching the grotesque looking thing start to make the chemicals boil as they mixed and she realized this was not going to be good. She had dealt with Meta humans before but not cybernetic enhanced ones. Seeing gas raising from some of the jars she reached down to her belt and pulled out a rebreathe device and placed it against her face and nose it now made her look like she was in a solid suit save for her hair being exposed. Her eyes where then covered by the mask and it was all the protection she would have from the harsh chemicals while he fought.
She was still holding that canister with the energy in it like it was most important thing she had here save for him. Then out of nowhere she was snatched up and she saw him briefly when he set her in a metal container and closed her in. well now she was safe from the chemicals but only tell she ran out of air. Closing her eyes Sandra did her best job to not think about the enclosed space she was in and twitched some controlling her breathing so as not to blow through the little air she had. Hearing the combat going on outside left her wondering who was winning. Then she saw it the container opened and there that thing was with a needle of who knows what baring down on her she was already reaching for her belt when it jerked to a halt and was now standing straight up and blinked. All she could think was this wasn’t going to end well. The acid dripped from the tip of the needle and she shifted to protect the canister as it hit her shoulder and bubbled and ate through a small part of the suit but it was stopped before it could get to her flesh.
Getting helped out of the container she steadied herself against him and then walked as they got to the vault and saw the kryptonite vault and watched how he opened it as if it was no big deal. Well she was planning on getting him to be immune to it but not like this. She watched him quickly drop to one knee and placed a hand on his shoulder. “That stuff is called Kryptonite It weakens Kryptonions. But with you eventually it will no longer effect you given time. I was going to expose you to it in smaller doses to allow you to slowly gain the immunity after I explained what it was and what it would do to you. Seems I did not have that chance. She reached over and gripped a leaver and pulled it the door manually closed cutting him off form the radiation. “Let’s be more careful as we travel through here tell we know this place is safe and can inventory what is in it please?” she asked kindly her hand still resting on his shoulder where the bone spur was already growing back. “Do you know how to read?” she asked him. Thinking he may not know how granted he got information quickly she didn’t know if he actually read it or not he was a mystery one she intended to teach and help grow up to be a strong man like the two men she knew he had been looking for both became heroes in their own right.
-
-Dur-El nodded understanding her point of being more careful so he decided this place needed locked down if they planned to work down here uninterrupted so he bent his knees and began to run in every corridor to every exit flipping switching turning on the defense systems that those that worked here previously hadn’t had the time to activate.
He watched as all the doors sealed shut but there was air purifiers so they didnt have to worry about suffocating now and there was no chance of Brainic breaking inside as they place was made to with stand Superman himself. Now that Dur-El knew what kryptonite was he now noticed it was everywhere but he also realized that with a type of metal it couldn’t effect him so he found a suit of this type of metal and put it on his spikes cutting through the shoulders and his knuckles through the hands so he knew he had to work fast. He moved at top speed collecting this weird stone and one he had all of it which was more sixteen tons worth of the weird stone but it seemed to come in different colors most of it was green but there was a few stones of red and black that were hidden around but with his x-ray vision he had been able to find it.
He would seal it quickly in the vault with the rest of it before removing the suit easily by just ripping it from his harden skin. He then heard her question having moved so fast it seemed she hadn’t taken much notice to him leaving”no i have never been taught how to read, i have something that gathers information that is important but anything else is just scratches to me”. He then found the power generator that powers the building and as he flipped it on the entire place seemed to glow as there were screens everywhere with information on all the heroes and villains of the past showing that Lex had a bad addiction for them.
Dur-El finally found a screen that interested him it showed a battle a long time ago between Superman and Doomsday where the giant beast won believing to have killed the man of steel. Lucky this was on a repeating audio track and he didn’t need to read the weird language the humans used. He returned to the woman looking at the jar she took everywhere with her”that red stuff sure seems important since you never let it out of your site, i did find a vilian on one of the screens that used an energy like that, he was called a lantern.”
-
She hadn’t exactly noticed he left but figured he was listening either way and took a sigh of releif. Hearing the place come to life and watching him put all the kryptonite in one place left her abit anxious but at least she knew where it all was. Holding onto the container she had with her she checked its battery she would need to find a power source for it soon before the magnetic locks failed but she had some time left to think and clear things. Hearing his words she was brought back to reality and tilted her head slightly then thought and chuckled. “That makes sense now. There was a green lantern on earth at one point in time Hal Jordan I think was his name but this isn’t green it’s red.” Her thoughts then drifted again and she walked down to the computer termanil he had been looking at and flipped to it and looked upon the screen and smiled. “Well well looks like there is more to lex corp then he ever lead on…” She shook her head and thought this place needed to be destroyed and she figured that he wouldn’t argue about that but she wasn’t done here not yet there was still work to be done.
She took to typing into the terminal as she found a layout of the facility and found the main lab area for Genetics and nodded. Walking down the halls she left him for the time being letting him explore now he had been through quit a bit already she shouldn’t push him to hard to fast he needed time to adjust get used to who and what he was. She knew about that all to well. Walking down the hall she stood in front of the door to the genetics lab and wondered if this was going to be the smartest or dumbest idea she ever had. Then she tapped a few keys and the door jerked for a second then slid open and she stepped inside and what she saw horrified her. Some of the Cloning tanks had already been broken and yet others things still rested in. Walking through the area she looked across them and then walked over to the computer system and pulled it up and saw a plug and checked it them placed her Canister into it and the battery instantly starting charging but the computer also started to analyze the material or in this case the energy inside it and started to look through its database for a match.
She looked to the screen as the data came up and pulled up the red Lantern information. Seemed lex kept more secrets then just him being a crime lord. continuing her research at this point she thought about setting up her new base of operations here and shutting down and converting certin areas of this facility. Then she thought of Gotham and realized she couldn’t do that she would be here only as long as it took she needed to protect that city she made a promise though she wondered if that would be able to be done. Realizing that a new body was needed she decided it best to stay here tell she was able to create one. She brought up the file on the things that where in the cloning pods.
Looking over the file she hmmed and thought curious as to what and why? “So you where cloning Dur-El interesting but you infused them with more of doomsday why?” While reading the file one of the capsles opened but she didn’t notice as she was ingrossed in reading the file before her. It stepped out and saw her and tilted its head unsure how to react to her as its programing and thoughts hadn’t fully started running yet so she was still mildly unaware of him.
-
-Dur-El followed her but not very close his secound sense kept pulling him towards terminals that he learned from mostly hero’s of the past but a few villain’s. He quickly analyzed them for weakness if someone never tried to copy there style, nothing was really known of the gotham villains but alot on metropolis. Dur-El found one that said acess denied so he walked away planning to learn how to acess it later. Dur-El felt like a part of himself was tore away so he hurried to findntue woman which lead him to discover a clone of himself standing there. He launched himself with him extreme speed knocking it into a vault of what appeared to be a well hidden collection of items from the past one of such being a yellow lantern. The beast fully awake blasted Dur-El with heat vision but luckly with the new shine to his chest he was like a mirror so it bounced off through a painting. Dur-El used super speed to be in its face and knock it down. While it was down he forced the mouth open and blew his icey breath into the creature untill it was frozen solid. Dur-El walked over to the woman”once u find ur stuff we need to work on my attacks”.-
-
She didn’t seem phased initially that he came rushing in tell she heard the crash. Turning in shock she watched the fight and realized he needed to work on his combat skills. He was growing stronger and learning how to use his skills but he needed to learn that killing is not always the answer but in this case she figured it was the best way to keep them both alive. Watching him walk over she heard his statement and took a breath and sighed. “We will in time you seem to be doing good but yes we will work on your fighting skills.” Turning back to the console she started to work again and rain an analysis of the energy and then uploaded her sequencing for venom and ran the two together and let the system fight with a way to merge the two so that they would work with each other as she started to pull up the DNA information that Lexcorp had stored down here and pulled up a re-sequencing tool. She pulled up Dur-El’s DNA and then DNA for the Flash took a deep breath. “alright that’s a start.” she then set those to coding the two strengths together as she started to dig up other useful DNA. Finding the sequencing for the Meta-Human version of Catwoman she blinked and then shifted that into the mix as the system continued its work. She then found information on the Lazarus Isotope and shifted that over into the mix after reading what it did. “Would these clones be worth while for training opponents or would you rather we work with something else?” She asked as she continued flipping through the DNA files that where here.
-
-Dur-El shrugs his shoulders at her question”if you can edit there dna so that they fight in different ways then they will be fine”. He had been slowly learning from the terminals how humans worked and he guessed these creatures were humans mutated by his own DNA. Dur-El began to search the rest of the room guessing she would now be more careful with releasing his clones. He found an arsenal full of robotic suits a few of them looking like they would be used for space travel and others for deep sea diving. He turned and found a huge suit double Dur-El’s height that was bright green and radiating energy of different kinds but it didn’t seem to effect him so he guessed it wasn’t kryptonite so he walked closer trying to figure out what it was he accidental clicks it sending a yellow blast through his chest just missing his heart and piecing his left lung. knocking him to his knees as he coughed up blood and he fell on his face with his eyes wide open and to anyone that didnt know his heritage would think he just killed himself but he slowly pushed himself back to his feet breathing deeply as his lung healed and then his chest. He coughed the last bits of blood as a spur grew out of his chest from the spot he had been shot. He then felt his skin vain up pulsing the energy to expunge it as it tried to corrupt him but his DNA wouldn’t allow it so it was pushing out of his veins and evaporated as it exited his body. He then watched his body shine gold for a second before it vanished. He decided to drag the armor by the arm while he made his way back to the woman”look what I found in the back.”
-
The system continued to fly with information as she shifted dna around and added to the strand she was designing at the station. Finally the energy pattern and the venom composition had completed and she brought it up beside the dna strand. She then turned as she heard the sound of metal and something large being drug about. Turning she looked at the massive suit and blinked. “What is it?” she asked walking over she had an idea but didn’t know what it was for she didn’t realize the silliness of her question. As she got close she tapped a button on the side near the chest and watched the battle suit open up. “Hum” She wearily started to look around inside without actually crawling in. “I think it’s a battle suit of some sort but I don’t know for sure if I can find the power source it might help. It also might help in your training.”

In a small square room, there was abnormally dark corner that faded into normal room lighting, Revealing Amelia yawning and stretching out her arms. She then rubbed her eyes loosely and stood up from her lounging space. She felt slight pain in her body and let out an almost inaudible moan, whispering under her breathe, “Never forget to stretch again.” She was in her normal dress minus her make up, seeing as it has not been on her top priority list. She wiggles her nose as she rubbed her arms, the room was chilly. She quickly scanned the room to check for any changes from when she first took refuge in it. A sigh of relief escaped her lips as she found it completely the same. She then lifted her feet of the floor and floated towards a corner across from the door, surrounding herself in darkness. She reaches her hand out towards the door and the handle turns and the door slowly opens. She sat in the corner, waiting for what seemed like forever, then dropped from her perch and removed the darkness and left the room, closing the door behind her as quietly as possible. She walks down the hallway and up to a window that is shattered. She jumps out of the window just to float up to the roof tops. After landing, she looked down at the city.
-
-Dur-El decided he didn’t want anything to do with that suit now so he decided he was starting to feel hungry so he decided he would leave Lexcorp to hunt for food. His first stop was a food market that had huge holes through it and pieces of skeletons which made him guess were from the attacks of Brainiac. He began to explore finding cans and frozen goods that didn’t have a date on them so he found a huge crate the stuffed it full of items before hoisting it above his head and carting it back to lexcorp. He looked around the surface seeing a droid flying around trying to detect them so he puts the crate down before picking up a sewer cap and began to flip it before throwing it as hard as he could before it slashed right through the droid making it explode. He then picked it up and made his way through the vehicle port and made his way back to her”hungry?”.
-
While he was gone she continued to inspect the suit finally pulling its memory bank and its power supply. Walking over she fidgeted with several of the systems and managed to connect both once she figured it out. Pulling up the schematics and the readings on the power source she blinked and shifted some. “let’s see here so if I were to do that it would okay hum?” She finally took and grabbed orange and green then took the violet and added those into the mix and waited for reconstruction to commence it didn’t take long before it came back rejected and she started to put in other combinations tell she finally realized the energies would not work together. Figuring she had the greatest of them she left it be and then set the final dna strand with the strand of dna from the venom and energy constitution and set those two to combine and the system set to work as she turned around and took a shaky step she saw Dur-EL come back and as if she was hungry. Sandra smiled at him. “lets see what we got to eat.” She started to go through the crate sorting the food out and soon had it all organized out on a medical table. “Okay now to make us something to eat.”
-
Amelia saw an abnormal thing while looking down at the city. She actually saw non-robotic movement. Her jaw dropped, she was in awe. It didn’t end there. After the figure reemerged from the market, it had a giant crate full of food. At the sight of it, Ameliia’s stomache growled. She promptly put a hand on her stomache and quietly shushed it. She watched as the figured picked up a sewer cover and blew up a droid. Again her jaw dropped. She hadn’t seen this kind of action in what seemed like forever. She couldn’t let this go without finding out who this was. She collected darkness around her once more and leaped from the roof to follow the figure I the air. She paused in shock when he entered Lexcorp. Unsure of if it would be safe to enter or not she decided to fly around the building for possible entrenches and exits.
