A Family That Fights Together Stays Together [Kara]

[Deleted]

Perry and Lois were arguing again. It was always a scary sight, and most of the other reporters at the Daily Planet usually cowered from the clashing fury. 

Clark knew he should try to calm them down, but he'd learned by now that getting in the middle of such a heated argument between the two. It was a wonder Perry hadn't fired Lois for just being obnoxious, but Clark knew that Perry liked her. They were both old softies hiding behind their rough exterior, and Clark was one of the few people who knew it.

He sighed, pushing his glasses further up on his nose as Jimmy walked up next to him.

"They at it again, CK?" he asked, offering the reporter a mug of coffee.

"They should cool down in a bit," Clark replied, reaching up to take the mug. Just as he lifted it up, his superhearing kicked in. Someone was calling for help. "I just remembered I have to--uh--get some donuts. Lois threatened to kill me if I didn't get her donuts," he said, hoping his hollering fiancé would pick up on the story if Jimmy mentioned it. Jimmy looked a little surprised as Clark leaped up and dashed toward the elevator, loosening his tie. Once out of sight, he ducked into the hall and ripped open his shirt, speedily changing from Clark to Superman, and shooting off into the sky through a window.

The ground fell out below him and he flew across the sky, eyes scanning below for the source of trouble. 

[Kara Zor-El - Supergirl]

Kara happened to be hanging around Metropolis that afternoon with a few friends from her class. And when she meant friends, it was just some group that happened to get together to talk about a school project. Like she made friends that easily at the new school.

The human females in her class were so cliché. It was rather annoying in ways. She tried not to stand out like a sore thumb and keep out of sight when she could. But these groups seemed to like to pick on whoever they wanted for amusement.

All the while, Kara tried to control her temper during school. Or in general. Though she managed to stay away from most of the drama at school.

Kara had been caught off guard by the sudden scream her superhearing picked up some distance away. As for this scene over a school assignment....she rather pick a fight any way than talk about school.

"Hey, I'll catch up on the assignment with you guys back at the library tomorrow after class. I just remembered I was to mean with my guardian over some family event going on this weekend. See ya," she said all the while she had been backing away. Getting out of the small group that had formed at the table they decided to have lunch at.

They got out of school earlier...this was their only reason for being free at this time of day. Otherwise, Kara was more inclined to skip school on her own if it came to superhero work.

Kara broke away from the group and sprinted off down the street and down an alley. Once out of sight, she pulled a quick changed and was then off into the sky.

Her super hearing guiding her for a bit, before she spotted something out of the corner of her eye.

"Thought you'd be too busy with your work to be out saving the day," she joked. Knowing fully well which practice came first in their line of work.

The conversation would not last long as they tried to pinpoint the location of the situation.
