EWSG DC Superman : A Tale of a Humble Hero (app)

Hello.

My name is Jor-El but you can call me Jordan.

I would tell you how my story begins when I moved to Metropolis but that isn't really the case.You see , the thing that makes me different from you is the fact that I'm ..well...an alien.

Now I know what you're thinking , "That's impossible!" and you're probably dialing 911 already to get me locked up in a clinic for the mentally insane.But before you do that , atleast let me tell you the story till its end.

About two or three years ago I arrived to Earth in a spaceship originating from Krypton.I'm assuming you're wondering what's krypton .Krypton is a planet "in a galaxy far far away",eh sorry for the cliche.Well , it used to be one until it was destroyed after an asteroid collided with it. Only a few of us managed to escape by pure luck. I don't know about the others , but I do know about myself . Upon arriving to Earth I realized something . On Earth, no one shared the same abilities I did . The people of Earth could not fly , they could not breathe underwater, and many more things that us kryptonians could . I realized at that moment that I had to keep my abilities secret because as big as their potential to help was , their potential to hurt was even bigger. Reminds me of a phrase I read in a comic book , "With great power comes great responsibility". About two months after my arrival I got a job as a news reporter in The Daily Planet . I've met a good friend there who works as a cameraman and we go out to a bar to drink and talk about our lives every Friday .His name is Vallus but everyone calls him Val. Other than that , my life has been what the people of earth would describe as 'Boring' but I like it.

That is , until today .

Friday , 5:00 pm

 

I struggle with my keys while trying to unlock the door since I'm in a bit of a rush . I told Val I'd meet him at the bar around 5 pm but I got stuck in traffic .

Ah, Finally!

I exclaim as I finally unlock the door and get into my apartment. I drop my suitcase on the couch and just as I'm getting out of my work suit I hear something outside the building. You see , my apartment overlooks the central square in Metropolis .

And that's when I see him.

A man with blonde hair wearing a white suit and cape hovers in the air, surrounded by flames.

Oh boy, I think to myself just as he propels himself in the direction of my apartment.

I dodge to the side just as he smashes through the wall .

I make my way to the bedroom where I keep my suit from Krypton tucked under the bed and as I do , I feel a burning heat behind me indicating that I should probably hurry up. I close the door behind me just as I get in but I doubt that will stop him altough it might buy me enough time to get my suit on.

And , surprisingly it does .

Just as I'm putting my bandana on so no one can recognize me by my face , the fire engulfs my wooden bedroom door .You could say things are getting pretty heated . I bust through the bedroom wall and fly into the sky as far as I can to lure him away from the civilians . And he follows as I expected .

We meet in the sky both distanced from each other about 5 feet.

I thought I was the only Kryptonian around here

He smiles .

You are .We're just clones

He extends his hands and fiery flames come out of them , hungrily going in my direction but I stop them with my cold breath .

Suddenly , he flies straight into my chest knocking the air out of my lungs and sending me flying back , while turning around disoriented . I regain my balance but he's nowhere to be seen. As I try to remember every detail about him that I can , I remover one thing in particular that at first I didn't think was important .

He had a small symbol on his left arm . It was the letter E with its part that make out a L bolded and crossed out with a X .

E,L,X?

Lex Corp ?

Suddenly I hear my phone ring , which suprises me since I'm amazed that in the midst of all that chaos not only did I get my suit on but I also took my phone with me.

I check who's calling and see its Val . Its 6 o'clock.

Where the Hell have you been Jordan , its 6 o'clock .

Val , you are never gonna believe me even if I told you .
