A Bad Case of Krytonite [Joker,Lex, Supergirl]

[fdf2092]

It was a bright and sunny day. A perfect day for the junior high students to go on a field trip to Gotham's history museum. The museum had an exhibit this month on the one the only Superman. It had exhibits on his heroics here on Earth from his first days in Metropolis to the founding of the Justice League. It even included a few rare items like one of his original costumes he first wore to the extremely rare pieces of Superman's home planet Krypton. These rocks where known by another name here on Earth they were called Kryptonite. 

The Kryptonite was kept under heavy guard as they were the only things able to hurt the legendary Man of Steel or any body from Krypton like Superman's cousin Supergirl. The bus driving the students this day had a brand new bus driver behind the wheel the teachers said this was his new day on the job and that the old bus driver had retired. What they did not know was that the old bus driver was dead and that this new driver was non other than the infamous Clown Prince of Crime The Joker. He had killed the previous bus driver taken his uniform and was posing as a new bus driver. 

The drive to the museum was quite pleasant as nobody dared to speak for the new bus driver was creeping everyone out even the teachers did not say anything.  Once they had arrived to the museum the bus driver parked the bus in the designated area and let everyone out. "....um..Mr.....Jack...was..it.?" said one of the teachers all nervous. "Yes Miss how can I help you?" said the bus driver in a pleasant tone. "We..have an..extra..." she said before finding the courage to finally speak normal. "ticket for the museum if you would like it we had gotten it for our previous bus driver but seeing he is not here would you like it?" "Thank you I'll be glad to go in with the group I just love museums" he said in joyful like voice. 

Once inside the Plan can begin. Joker had been hired by non other than Lex Luthor to steal the Kryptonite all of it including the rarest one the museum had the dreaded black Kryptonite which it's powers on Kryptonians made them split into a good and bad side.  The inside of the museum was grand were exhibits of every shape and size could be seen from the entrance.  It was all magnificent but it bored the Joker as he only cared about getting that Kryptonite as Mr. Luthor had paid him pretty substantial amount to get those rocks to him. Seeing that his goons were in their place he took of his costume and shot a few rounds into the ceiling. 

Chaos broke throughout the museum as people started running. "Oh where is everyone going the fun is just beginning" said the Joker in a loud voice. His goons had taken out a few of the guards and some were blocking the exits. He needed people to stay inside the museum as to not attract any of those pestering Hero's.  He made his way into the Superman Exhibit so the plan can continue as planned. 

The exhibit was now surrounded by more guards trying to keep the Joker away. "Well it looks like some people are very protective over their little rock collection." the Joker said. Having planned for a big amount of guards the Joker unleashed a special bomb he had made for just this occasion. The bomb was filled with a non lethal version of his own Joker venom. He was told by Luthor not to kill the guards some had to make the venom non lethal. 

Having incapacitated the guards he walked towards the case containing the Kryptonite. Not knowing if the case was being protected by any kind of barrier he called over one of his goons to grab it for him. As soon as the goon grabbed the glass case he was shocked by an electric current running through the box and fell to the floor. "Hmm I guess they really don't want me to get this little rocks." knowing full well that Luthor would not be happy with out his rocks Joker looked around the case for a little power box which he did find right next to the floor. Joker taking out his Joy Buzzer he pressed it against the power box to short circuit the system.

His idea had worked for he called another goon to grab the case this time the man was unharmed. Taking the case from him he walked towards the exit still being covered by his men keeping everyone inside.

[Kara Zor-El - Supergirl]

Work had hit the Justice League over a possible strike on the Superman exhibit in the past few days. And there were eyes on the place. There had been a plan buried and now about to surface after several years. But why the wait for the chance to strike.

Well at the time of the attack, the League could not send out any one else but Supergirl. After a call in space from the Green Lanterns some went to help with the plea across space and the others were trying to redirect a meteor their satellites had picked up far before NASA's had detecting it.

So Supergirl was warned of the dangers of this job. There was just one problem with this case....Kryptonite. This had not been seen coming. It was a secret addition to the show case. No one had said about there being Kryptonite on display.

The thought had been that Lex had a hired goon to case a ruckus to get the attention of the League and draw them out. But Supergirl was flying into a trap unprepared. Though she was the only one they could send at the time.

Supergirl came soaring through the Gotham City sky line, building speed as she came into the crime scene. Her super hearing had picked up on the alarms going off and her x-ray vision showed her more as she closed in.

She could see the Joker positioned with his henchmen around him. The Joker? This didn't seem like Lex's line of hiring. But the attack on Superman was his style. Not the Joker's. But even then, it was known that the Joker didn't like Superman.

Kara could only hope she had gotten there in time before any kryptonite was lost from it's protective case.

Supergirl came crashing through the side wall in a clearing from people. "Hold it right there, Joker," Supergirl said as she grabbed a rod from one of the displays and swung it to take out a goon or two.

As she got slightly closer, there was a faint feel of weakness in her. Weakness...that meant Kryptonite was near.

[fdf2092]

"Well what do we have here" said the Joker in a surprised voice "if it isn't Supergirl.... If the Heroes sent you to stop me than they must be running out of people." he continued before letting out a laugh.  He had hoped Superman would come to stop him so he could test out to see if Luthor was right about the Kryptonite but Supergirl was a fine substitute for this since they were both from Krypton.

Looking at the superhero Joker kept a little distance between them just in case Luthor was wrong and the Kryptonian was unharmed by the glowing green rock. Slowly getting closer to Supergirl  he took a notice of how she looked like she was going to be sick every time he took a step closer.

"Well Supergirl it looks like you caught me but before I go to jail want to see what I have inside this case" he said with a smile on his face as he held up the brief case. "This case contains a various amount of different colored Kryptonite ranging from the common green to the ultra rare black Kryptonite. The person who hired me really wanted to get their hands on these little rocks for they payed a really hefty amount." he said before proceeding to open up the case.

Taking out a baseball size chunk of green Kryptonite the Joker held it in his hand. "I hear this stuff is completely harmless to a human...." he said in a calm tone before switching to a darker toned voice "...but radioactive to a Kryptonian....just...like...you." holding up the Kryptonite he began to walk closer to Supergirl still holding on to the doubt that this super powered alien was truly weakened by a stupid looking rock.

[Kara Zor-El - Supergirl]

As Joker spoke, another goon was about to get up again and spotted him right away. And within seconds the rod she had been handling was thrown in his direction to knock the goon over. To someone like Supergirl, the rod had been as light as a feather. But to a human it may have been more than a hundred pounds or so.

"They had better things to do than to deal with you," Kara replied.

The Joker was stepping closer. And with every step Kara was feeling weaker. She was trying to use all of her power to keep her floating. She didn't want to get to ground level if the Kryptonite was in the hands of the Joker.

The case they were contained in was just doing enough to lower the effect. But at the Joker's next words, she knew she was in trouble. She saw him start to open the case before she could react.

Her energy had drop and she was feeling dizzy as he had been approaching her. Then only to open the case as she tried to back off a bit. But within this museum area, there was no escape for her now as he pulled out the large piece of green Kryptonite.

As soon as he had pulled it out, Kara was losing air on her flight. And he was stepping closer. Backing her almost into a wall.

With him holding it up and within such a close range, the effect were more immediate. Supergirl lost her ability to fly and crashing down to the ground. Feeling like she had been hit by a more powerful truck. Her body taking on the effect of the Kryptonite. Weakening her down to no more than to maybe an athletic human. But to Supergirl that felt like being powerless and a weakness she hadn't felt in a long time.

She lay on the floor and groaned as she started to pick herself up again. Her body aching all over. She never liked feeling like a moral. There was Supergirl powerless, defenseless in the presents of the Joker.

That green rock had more power than the Joker would know. And the effects were quick. The larger the amount, the quicker the effect. Even the little bit Batman seemed to carry around with him at times was enough when close to weaken Superman. But the size stone Joker had, it wouldn't take much outside of a hundred yards to effect her.

Now it would feel like a ton of brisks against her, holding her down to the ground. She rarely knew the effects of gravity since she defied it every day.

"So how does it feel to be Mortal Superbrat?" asked Joker with a happy tone. He saw how much pain Supergirl was in and it made him smile. *I guess Luthor was right about stupid looking rock. Lex told me to to have fun with Supergirl but not to kill her.....I guess I can do that.* the clown thought. 

Joker saw four different colors of Kryptonite in the case he was carrying. The colors where Blue, Silver, Red, and Black. Almost all but the black and gray colored Kryptonite were the size of a golf ball. The Silver Kryptonite was about the size of a pencil while the Black Kryptonite was verily the size of a quarter. 

*If Green makes them weak I wonder what these other colors will do.*  The clown thought. "Well Superbrat you really seem to be hating this green colored piece of Rock. I wonder how you will handle these other four colors." Joker said in a menacing manner. He grabbed his case and randomly pulled out one of the stones in the case. The Kryptonite he grabbed was colored Red. From what Luthor said the red color was suppose to make them experience a drug like effect that targets the primal emotions like lust and makes me loose their inhibitions.  

"Looks like the color Red is the winner. My employer says this one requires skin contact with the Alien to actually work...... so YOU come here." He said to one of his goons. "Take this stone and press it against her skin I have a theory to test." Joker told his henchmen. "Oh and don't worry about her hurting you this little puppy" pointing at the Kryptonite in his hand "Will keep you safe...maybe" the clown said with a laugh. 

As the nervous thug walked toward the weakened Supergirl the clown laughed in a darkened tone. The goon placed the stone on top of her bare hand as the Joker looked at his new guinea pig to see if his twisted experiment will work.

[Kara Zor-El - Supergirl]

"Like how I'm going to make you feel when I'm through with you," Kara said as she glared at him.

It was enough that if she had her powers, she could almost shoot her heat vision at him. Her weakened condition was the only thing protecting the Joker from her force.

Supergirl started to sit up. She was feeling dizzy about the drop. Glancing around she could see there was no one else there now beside the Joker and his goons. Good, at least the people that had been in there were now safe. She rather see them safe and take the hits right now. And there was no telling what she might end up doing with the kryptonite being used on her.

At his words, she eyed the box. She needed to get it away from him. But that would risk her having more effects from the stones which the case if she got too close.

She wasn't all that familiar with all the types of kryptonite. She hadn't had any run ins with them much besides the green. But her cousin had taught her about most of the known kinds.

And it was red he was going to use against her. Kara knew the effects of the red stone. She'd lose control of herself. Her personality almost being the flip of how she was now. And she knew it could last up 24 hours or more. But with the size he had in his hand it might be more of the 24 hour range. She wouldn't be able to tell. And she didn't want to find out.

Supergirl got to her feet, but was barely able to stand. She fell back against the wall behind her, it was now supporting her. Kara saw the goon coming in closer to her with the red stone. She wanted to back away, but his approach was faster than she was able to pull herself away.

"No, don't," she said as she tried to pull her hand out of the goon's grip on her wrist as he placed it against her hand.

The red stone taking affect immediately. The red pulsing through her views as it changed her. A tingling feeling coming over her as her mind flipped. What was going on? Supergirl once again drops to her hands and knees as she is being taken over by the red kryptonite.

"You really should play fair, Joker," Kara said. She looks up toward him. "Care for a little wager over all this?"

She is still weakened by the the green Kryptonite as she speaks. Challenging him. Trying to get him to try and make this interesting. This was a different side of Kara. She normally would have tried to fight against it since there wasn't much she could do.

But the red kryptonite was causing her to change the rules of his little games. Challenging him to see if he was willing to bet on the cause. And she what she could get out of this now. Almost as if it was a game.

"Pretty pathetic to be hiding behind using a stone that can beat me. Afraid you can't play at my level and win," Kara taunted him again.

She was just wanting to see if she could hit a nerve. She sat back a bit looking up at him. Then slowly started to use the wall again for support. A smirk on her face. She knew the Joker would be a coward, he wouldn't risk it. But everyone had a week spot. And maybe his was challenging his courage. If he had any.

Seeing Supergirl struggle under the influence of the red Kryptonite brought an eire smile to Jokers face. The Kryptonite had worked and she was acting like an annoying little kid trying to pic a fight with a bully. He knew the Kryptonite changed her personality but what he did not know was if it had taken her superpowers away. 

"Well Super brat any more colorful words to throw my way. You may be disoriented but I'm not foolish little girl you may be intoxicated but I'm not going to risk it  incase you still have your superpowers." said the Joker as he looked at Supergirl.  The clown saw how she was struggling to control her actions. 

"As much as I would like to kill you my employer has told me I  have to run a few more test on you to see the effect of Kryptonite on a Kryptonian. Don't worry miss Dr. Jokers in the house and these test won't hurt a bit" He said in a happy tone before turning to a darker tone to say "It will hurt A LOT!!!!" 

Only 3 more samples of Kryptonite were left in the brief case he was holding. He decided he was going to combine the effect of two of the Kryptonites so that he could leave this place and get paid. He grabbed the Blue Kryptonite and the Grey Kryptonite ad gave them to one of his clowns. 

"Here take these two stones and stab them into her skin so we can see the effects of the stones in her." Luthor had told him that the blue Kryptonite would take away her superhuman powers and make her as weak as a regular human but make her immune to green Kryptonite and that the grey Kryptonite should help in that as it will make her hallucinate and she won't be much of a threat. 

The goon walked toward her in a slow pace before Joker said. "Hurry it up ya stupid buffoon before I get bored and kill you my self." with that warning the goon started to run towards Supergirl with a stone in each hand ready to stab them into her skin.   

[Kara Zor-El - Supergirl]

Kara was back on her feet again after all the struggling. Her body was gaining very little strength back. Her needs weak, like they would give out on her at any minute. Though her eyes said to challenge the Joker's words in this new state she found herself.

"Want to take a chance on that," Kara said. toward him.

She some how managed to control enough energy to shot off her heat vision at a rail over hanging the Joker. Enough that it causes a major fracture, but no action just yet.

"Give me your best shot," Kara said.

But before the goon was to come at her. She saw him hesitate. At that instant, Kara within herself, started to scream out in pain. On the outside, Kara effected by the Kryptonite, was wincing in pain as she grabbed her head with her hands. In an effort to cover her ears and try to ease her mind over all the effects.

The Kryptonite was like poison in her veins. It was surging through her. The different waves and effects pulsing at different frequencies.

Her mind trying to fight it off. The poison saying no, as her self control was trying to take over again. While this was all going on, the goon had been threatened by the Joker. By the time, Kara knew what was going on, the goon was rushing for her.

Summoning some strength, she managed to gain control of her motor skills again and dodge the first hand by blocking it. Knocking the blue Kryptonite out of the goon's hand. But the grey was pierced into her side.

Crying out in pain, the Kryptonite had drawn some blood from her. It would be the only thing to do such. She was the Maid of Might after all. And the only weakness the Kryptonians had were these rocks. The green would have done more damage. After all that was the only thing they could use to perform surgery on any of the last Kryptonians when dealing with a life or death of them. They had on Superman before.

She screamed as she swung her arm to hit the goon a way from her with enough force to send him into a wall. Kara's sight went distorted as she fell to the ground. Her mind racing with the sight before her of the room spinning and waving about. And figures from her past coming to sight now.

Almost to the point of them being real at times.

"No! Stop!," she cried out in her native tongue. The Joker would not understand the tongue.
