Chapter Text
Diana growled and shook her head walking away from Kal trying to leave the brewing argument there. But even if Kal was a kryptonian, he was raised on earth as a man so followed the irritated woman. Pleading. Trying to calm her before things got too out of hand.
“Diana! Diana for god sake!? I didn’t mean you wasn’t enough!?” His voice raised enough to shake the walls of the tower making her wince and pause. She blinked back the tears in her eyes and rounded on him feeling lost. She’d had just about enough of this, he was the first man she felt she could be with again and things were falling apart!
“What am I supposed to think when you say stuff like that kal?!” she cried out waving her hands about for the second time feeling like she was loosing her happiness. Like soon she’d be alone once again a drift in the world to endure yet another century of loneliness. Kal slumped and raced around the table to her griping her arms and smoothing his hands over them tipping his head giving her a soft look.
“I love you, I love you soo much, your here with me, supporting me but… These arguments they are getting out of hand” he spoke quietly dragging her forward resting his forehead on hers. He drew in a deep breath, this was rare for him. He was Kal now. Feared ruler and a strict god among men. He was once reveried but now struck terror on the hearts of those he ruled. He guided and protected the humans like a stern parent holding each and every single person accountable for there own actions.
Yet here in to comfort of the tower he could relax with his love. Within these walls he could be Clark again, but it was hard with Diana. He loved her he truly did but she was not like Lois. In the end Lois had become tame and pliant once news of the baby had sunk in she’d stepped back and let him take over, let him play his part as the breadwinner. He’d never felt better but then he failed, was tricked and finally saw the humans for what they were. Weak and corrupted screaming for a leader, a father to correct them. He made the dicision to take the riegns and many followed and two years later here he was, king of the world with Diana at his side.
But now the fight was over both he and diana were restless, not even sex was taming their needs. They even fought one an other between the sheets, both having a need to dominate the other. It was getting dangerous, he’d almost burned her a few nights ago as she swore and clawed at him as he pinned her and took what he wanted in a rough bout of lovemaking.
“We are both used to be obeyed and its not healthy the both of us snapping at each other… We need an outlet love” he scooted forward wrapping his arms around her as she sighed whining letting her head fall to his shoulder closing her eyes and let go, relaxing and snuggled into him.
“All I’m suggesting is bringing in a third to help with our need for dominance, we cannot keep on trying to out do one another, one of us will get hurt” He hummed into her hair quietly, his palm spread wide on her back and he smiled when she fell into him. Melting into his embrace coaxing him to press kisses to her head. She grunted and craned her head back tilting it looking at him offering a strained smile.
“So you think dragging some random weakling into this will help” she asked calmer albeit still upset but she was listening. Even though he could tell she was still feeling bitter about the whole suggestion. He understood her point but he was doing this for the both of them even if she felt as if he was stabbing her in the back, attacking her pride. Was she supposed to just except another person in their relationship?… Another woman no doubt!
Kal held her gaze for a few moments and curled two fingers below her chin making her lock her eyes with his and smiled reassuringly. He could see her mulling over the idea, her mind trying to picture someone else in their life, their home and bed. Her mind drifted to a woman shexd come to cherish on the league the quiet shy girl who shrunk everytime she hoverd close. It hadnt taken the amazon princess long to figure out why the tiny humans cheeks turned pink each time they interacted, Diana regretted not snapping her up when she had the chance.
“No… Not random, I want what’s best for us, when its good we are soo good together. But we can’t out match one another, we can’t carry on being angry with each other over not giving in” he said slowly spinning with her in his arms making her gasp as he lifted her and pressed a kiss to her lips trying to lighten the mood. She gave in kissing back, she’d never deny him, he was her Kal. They had been through so much together she loved him.
“I can’t help it Kal… Sometimes you treat me like a weak woman who should just stay home and play house, like the men in London all those years ago” she argued trying to put into words the frustration she had at being left out of the regime recently. Kal had been doing his own thing, running his own missions trying the smoke out the last of the resistance.
Diana had seemingly been left at home to haunt the tower as he left for days and weeks hunting down enemies. He’d kept her here wanting her safe, but deep down she knew he liked coming and going as he pleased. There was something about having a warm woman at home waiting with a cooked meal and kisses at the ready. Diana was jealous because that’s what she wanted to! She wanted to go out and do a hard days work and return to a sweet lover that had been home waiting for her return with a loving embrace and the soft domestic type of love.
“Like you forget I am capable! I can hold my own, I helped win this just as much as you did!” She finished tersely growing more frustrated as she spoke the words aloud, lifting the heavy weight of them from her chest.
“And you treat me like a child!” Kal snipped back finding the words to put to his own irritation. Diana falterd and looked away. He was right sometimes she felt she knew better because she was older. But she couldnt help it, she craved looking after someone, she wanted something to coddle and Kal was the closest person to her.
“We can’t keep this up you know that, now my idea may not work… But what if it does?” he said with a small grin trying to win over the goddess in his arms his hands captured her cheeks and he pressed a gentle kiss to her lips before letting his hands glide over her neck and settle on her shoulders looking deep into her, reading her seeing past the power and strength seeing the women below. The beautiful loving and caring woman who was good. Soo soo good! He wanted to give her everything and would go to any length to fix this mess.
“You need someone to look after and coddle, we both do! And now is not the time and place to have a baby… We need to… improvise? Find someone weak who will bend to our will, who will obey us and love us, who we can both look after and give a better life. We need a sweet little one to spoil. A sub and you know it Diana, otherwise we may as well call it quits now. I don’t want another heartbreak, and neither do you. I love you enough to try.” He explained putting his cards on the table. She gave a weak look and huffed looking around for a reason against this whole thing. But there was none, he was right. She craved something different. She loved Kal but, it wasn’t enough she can’t settle. They can’t settle now the war is over it was hard Kal ruled with her at his side. He had most of the responsibilities even if they were few and far between and she was just there, waiting for somthing. They needed an outlet, something to curb this new need, the craving of dominance they both had.
“So who do you have in mind? You must have someone in mind for you to bring this up” she gave in with a thick voice tilting her head to the side peeking at her lover apprehensively. He grinned and nodded happy she was giving this a chance. She wont be dissapointed.
“Well we need someone we can trust, quiet and obedient… preferably who we both like and find attractive” kal moved around a large glass screen tabletop and motioned for diana to follow. She did arms crossed anxious, she was unsure but ultimately she could see his point. A relationship where you both wanted to be obeyed wasnt going to go anywhere. They would both benefit from having a third to control and dominate.
“Here look love~ I did some digging and look who I found!” He said leaving her side excited by his discovery, it had taken just over a week but he’d located his target- but he had found her, he always did~. Opening up a file on the touchscreen table. Dianas face split into a grin seeing the shy woman that had worked for the league, the only woman she’d ever consider shearing her Kal with. The woman she’d freely admit to having a small crush on, back before the league had split and Kals regime had rose.
“Ah ha! See theres that smile I love, I thought you’d come around, i saw the way you looked at her~ just think our own precious good little sub” Kal exclamied joyously moving to step behinde his lover , hands resting over her shoulders as he peeked over them to the photo on the screen. He preened feeling everything falling into place, his plan will work he was sure of it. A sweet shy well behaved babygirl to have around the home and by their side. The tiny woman would be a perfect match and fit in catering to their dominant nature and make them feel almost normal. She’d be the escape both he and Diana needed, their refuge where they could just love and dote on her, command her and keep her to themselves. His bones quivered in excitment, he couldnt wait to have her here with them.
“She is good, she never harmed anyone ever! Was always polite and listened… and cute- you remember the way she scrunched up her nose when the others made dirty jokes~” Diana spoke slowly a hand reaching out pressing to the cool glass on the photo, the caramel skin and dark chocolate almost black eyes smilling back at her with the shy smile Alexis always pulled when having her photo taken. Her reminiscing was met with a squeeze from Kal who wrapped himself around her from behinde, he hummed before continuing.
“Yes… And the way she’d get all flustered and her face glowed if she ever caught us out of our suits, or tangled in each others? She’d squeak and scamper off book in hand"he added making Diana chuckle and trun to face him as she remembered very well how you’d flush and apologise for walking in of them changing and dash off tripping over your own feet.
"Always with a book in hand… A cute little bookworn I always said she should be a librarian. Hmm shes lovely, so sweet and shy she always meant well… She was never ever nasty, she looks for the good in everything” she uttered leaning over the table flicking her fingers across it scrolling though the photos her smile growing brighter as each brought up a new memory. Her surprise birthday party, the time she got her final Shakespeare to complete her set, when she made the ‘alternative’ japanese fast food and got everyone to try it.
“That she did… And she liked us, I could hear it… Her heart would go wild and shed flush when near either of us. I always thought of inviting her to my bed even back then when I was with Lois… Maybe I should have” he spoke slowly grinning at the images. Diana paudpsed and snapped her head to Kal confused.
“You did? E-even with Lois?” She cursed herself as her voice trembled. She had worried hinking she wasnt enough for him if he had to add another to their relationship but not
Lois. As bad as it was she found it comforting that he’d considered it in previous relationships.
“Yes, before I got her pregnant, we had the same issues. But Lois had the added worry of her being human, she was… Headstrong didn’t do as she was told and pushed me… I needed something more traditional Y/n was a perfect candidate… Just as I decided to pursue her Lois became pregnant and changed.” He explained putting her at ease as he snuggled into her neck pressin sweet kisses. It was working, she was comming around to the idea.
“Soo we’re agreed? Shes our third? Our sweet little girl?” He asked already playing on the mommy/daddy kink they’d both explored. Maybe its why they liked the shy human, a naive good little girl, sweet and polite.
“Y-yes Ixd like that- but doesn’t Bruce have her?” She questioned standing up right mbringing her hands to his arms that coiled around her waist. She leant back on him as he left sweet kisses to her neck. He smirked into the skin and chuckled lapping at her pulse making her keen quietly.
“No he doesn’t. When he went underground she was too frightened to become a criminal… Shes back in her home town, I flew over a few days ago, shes still there living in a crappy bedsit struggling to survive” Kals voice broke through her haze, the moment ruined as she tore away from him looking appalled.
“Struggling? But shes good- a good honest citizen why is she struggling?!” She yelped anxiety building and her stomach dropped at Kal’s face. His mouth a firm line, brows furrowed he drew a hissing breath between his teeth before reciting all that he knew.
“She’s in the slums. Hiding, terrified of being found presumably, she probably thinks we will kill her because she knows our secrets… Silly little thing thought she could hide without Bruces help.” Diana froze at that. What? You really hadn’t gone with Bruce? So you’d been alone, fending for yourself all this time? In the middle of a fucking war?! She moved quickly going over the information and growled seeing not only had you been alone but you still refused help! You hadn’t enrolled into any of the new identification systems… That meant you had nothing! No means to look after yourself! No food vouchers or living ararrangements! No proper job?! Kal moved his hands over hers stopping her frantic searches.
“Love?” He coaxed slowly she spun and shook her head at him becoming upset as everything that could have happened to you raced through her mind. The worst case scenarios playing over and over.
“S-she’s been hiding! On her own with nothing? Nothing Kal! She could have come to us! We would have- Fuck!” She swore slamming her hands on the table in anger. Why? Why had you hid when you’d done nothing wrong? She dreaded to think how you were living, what youd had to do to survive. She trembled overcome with anger and frustration as her mind conjured images of a street girl on a corner. No! You wouldn’t have-never!
“Shh its okay love, I’ve found her our little human is safe.. she is alive and unharmed and will be better taken care of here~ Lets go bring her home” he said slowly to her his firm voice carried through the large space. He’d made up his mind, Alexis was coming home.
“Now Kal! I want her now! I need to… I just need her here!” Diana spoke almost shouting running her hands through her hair. She couldn’t explain it, she hadnt known that she’d needed a sub… a little one. Her own little one, not Kal- who tried, god did her try to play into their shared kink but he was a Daddy, not a little. Just like she was a mommy not a little. But now that she’d seen you again she was certain. The need to have you here with them and leep you safe was overwhelming but not unwelcome.
“I knew you’d come around! Come you go handle things here get a room ready and I will send the troops in, there are some criminals in the town who’d be of better use in omega, we can flush her out! But get ready, the porr thing might try to run” kal said cheerfully pressing his lips to Dianas lips. She smiled against him now excited for the future, their future with their own babygirl. All doubts were washed away as she swayed with Kal. Her mind wandered to just how much better things will be once they got you home.
You sat by the window hiding behinde the splintered wooden frame, eyes peeking as the black trucks drove about, a line 9f them maybe twenty or so tore down the street like a parade. And then they stopped each pulling up infront of the rows of buildings, you felt sick. It was happening! A raid! The raid! You’d dreaded this since the day superman took over. The fatefull day he confronted the league splitting the team in two. It was the beginning of the end, you hadnt been in the room but you’d been listening with barbra on the comms.
It was the day Superman had lost his mind. Lois had been killed along with their unborn and he’d killed the joker then disappeared. Bruce said he needed time to grieve andyou felt for him. But you were all wrong the tragedy had drove him mad. The final straw, after years of thwarting the same criminals over and over he had just had enough. He had killed. And the worst bit for you? Was that you didn’t exactly blame him. It took him a week to take control of America, the others tried to stop him but, he was superman.
When Diana sided with him all was lost. Bruce began the insurgency and recruited as many people as he could but numbers were small. Superman had gained to much ground taken too much and there were some who came out and supported him. They had the same view, why lock up people like the joker, who got out again and again killing over and over. Hundreds of thousands dieing just to save a heros conscious? If they were soldiers they be expected to shoot to kill. Even law enforcement, from top spy to little lieutenant were all expected to use their fire arms to save lives. What made the league so special? What gave them to right to keep a clear conscious?
The war was long fought yet only lasted a year at most? Then everything fell into place. Other countries tried to drop bombs, nukes to kill Superman but it didn’t work, he caught it and just threw it into space then destroyed all the bases with long range missiles, using his sight to locatethem, he had moved soo fast around the globe that they all seemed to be destroyedin a simultaneous attack. It was frightening to behold, to watch and acknowledge his true potential, the speed and power he exerted single handedly. After that there was really nothing the humans could do, they gave in crumbled. Humanity fell to its knees. He won.
It took just over two weeks for the new order to be put in place. Governments were torn down and now there was one authority over the entire planet. Each continent had one representative. So seven. Thats seven people who are incharge, well not really in charge Superman was in control, he told these people what had to happen and they did it. Other heros, now 'lords’ resided over areas and districts, you were in Damiens. Yes that Damien,the sweet boy who used to 'threaten’ you to make him mochi icecream. He was lord Robin now, he’d betrayed his father in arkham. You didnt know the whole story but Superman trusted him enough to give him a larger district.
You’d hidden some may say you were a coward, and they might be right. Bruce asked you if youd join him in hiding, if you’d fight. And youd said no much to his surprise. He had gotten angry. He yelled and lost his temper,but you just stood there ballingmyour hands into fists trying desperately not to cry. He didnt seem to understand you were already paranoid enough working for the league getting intel and breakingnthe law hacking into systems getting information. Superman could use that to kill you! You broke the law! You wont put yourself in the line of fire for Bruce. Well, not in supermans line of fire.
You’d waited until he was done and nodded to him wishing him luck and walked away. You hadn’t seen him again after that. For a while you thought youd made the wrong choice, you were homeless and couldn’t risk getting a job and being put in the system. What if the regime found you? You couldn’t risk it. People were being slaughtered, executions were now common place the laws were strict. Kal as he was now called ruled with an iron fist and no mercy and his troops reflected that.
Somehow you navigated the new order and managed to snag this tiny one room appartment all you had to do was help a few of the other neighbours with cleaning to pay your way. It didn’t seem right but that was how it was. Money was systematically being wiped out as it was 'the root of all evil’ so everyone got by with favours and labour. The world had changed so much in such a small space of time it was terrifying, for instance now there was no longer small or large crimes, crime was crime. That was it you break the law your out, either sent to omega and worked to death with heavy labour, or killed.
Yet the world was better for it in a fucked up way. Everyone lived in fear of the law, so everyone followed the rules. No more war, no more breaking news of a terrorist bombing or drink driving incident. Guns were illegal to everyone apart from law enforcement, so there was no more random shootings. Everyone even had a curfew! There were laws about every aspect of life and people followed them.
So life was better? Safer… Unless you lived in one of the few places still considered a 'high crime’ area. The raids were few and far between but they happened. The soilders came in droves, hundreds of thousands cornering off the area before systematically categoriseing each and every person by their records. Those who were clean were moved to a better area and those who were not were sent to omega lands.
And traitors, people who have ever had contact with the insurgency were executed. Sometimes Superman would come down and do it himself if there was a high number of them. To spark fear and get the job done quickly. He didn’t like wasting time and effort on those who couldnt be cleansed.
You cursed ducking low as the soldiers got out of the trucks, it was strange, they didn’t seem to be looking around much. They were focused like they had a specific orders. They were on a special mission. You felt yourself shiver terrified as your stomach dropped the hairs on the back of your neck on end. Something about this wasn’t right.
You tipped you head and watched as they surrounded the front of your building, some dissapered and moved around the alleys eitherside. You could hear the walkie-talkie the words grainy and foreboding. The creek of the door sounded and you watched from above as they entered the building filing in. You panicked, something told you it was you they were here for. You had to run.
Without any hesitation you moved quickly and quietly as the screams form a few floors down as the soldiers yelled kicking in doors and began dragging people out into the street. You felt bad but you couldnt help them. You had to get out. Now. They had to look after themselves.
You darted out of your dingy home and tip toed down the hall to the seperate fire escape stairwell and headed up. Once through the door you ran up to the roof as fast as you could breaking through the door on the roof heaving. Knees feeling like jelly, you were scared. What if they were here for you? What if this was it? You were going to be killed. You drew in a deep breath and looked over the flat roofs.
You couldn’t stop you had to jump. Slowly you walked to the edge only to look down and feel sick suddenly you didn’t feel to good. Just think, bruce can do it! Fuck-even Tim and Damien can jump a roof! It wasnt even that far… You took a breath and tried to run and jump but nope. You skidded to a stop, hands windmilling as you teetered over the edge. You tried again spinning and bolting and…. Nope. No no no. Thats just not going to happen.
You slumped and looked over the side frightened, why can’t you just jump?… Because that wasnt you. You wasnt athletic or a a crime fighter, you were a hacker a nerd who when you wasnt tracing phonecalls or criminals throuh the web, you were reading tolkien in a quiet corner or trying to recreate some complicated japanese recipe. You’d even been known to hide out in the local library for days on end when you wasnt needed. You shook your head, this wasnt you. You can’t jump!
You scanned the street nervously trying to see the situation. The screams and cries got louder as your neighbours were being dragged out on to the street. It was only when you peeked over the side you saw the scale of the raid. It wasnt just your building, it was the whole street- the block even!
Everyone was being rounded up in the street pushed into the center of the road being corralled by the black clad men holding guns. Women were pleading, screaming! Children crying and men weeping and shouting cursing the soldiers for their brutality. They were being made to kneel. You held your breath. That meant he was coming.
You stumbled back and shook your head panic building. Superman-Kal was coming! He was coming here? You dry heaved feeling sick. He’d kill you-torture you and try to find out where bruce was! You’d die… He’d burn you, turn you to ash like so many before you. You collapsed in a panic hand on your chest as the reality set in. You were dead. He would hear you! He’d find you and kill you. You quivered hands moving to your head dragging through your hair as you broke down. Chest tight and painful you were fighting for breath as if he already had your throat in his hand. You spun and darted to the door leading bak down into the building only to find you hadnt put the catch on. It was locked. There was no escape. You were trapt like a rat!
You curled over on the roof, placing your forehead into the gravel sobbing into your hand quivering as your thoughts became a broken record replaying the executions youd witnessed. They were fast, so fast no one even got the chance to scream… The thought was supposed to be a comfort, but it wasn’t. Instead it just made you worse, you cried out unable to think straight your sobs becoming uncontrollable as you crumbled. This was it. You were going to die today.
Your sobs paused as the deafening sound of his arrival was heard. He tore through the sky like a commet. The sound made you yelp and tuck into a tighter ball as the shockwave followed hitting you with an incredible force that would have knocked you down had you not already been on the floor trying to disappear. He didn’t have to do that but he made his arrival known, it usually made people freeze and behave when they realise who was coming.
Silence followed the sound. Apart from the muffled cries you could hear a pin drop. Slowly the tilted your head trying to listen as he spoke over the people all of which were most likely cowering just like you. But to your surprize it wasn’t Superman who spoke first, Diana began.
“Y/n… I know your here, wont you come out and see me?.” She said slowly, you gasped jolting as your fears were confirmed. They were here for you. You trembled and moved slowly inching to the edge of the roof looking down at the scene. Small whispers rippled the crowd that were on the floor cowering grovleing at the feet of the planets dictators.
Superman was hovering a few feet off the floor spining slowly arms crossed peering over the crowds. Looking for you. He looked stern and frightening, serious. Your stomach dropped as he furrowed his brow not seeing you in the crowd, he shook his head growling clearly irritated by your absence. Diana turned at the sound and sighed before walking closer to the crowd and looked to a soldier.
“You cleared the buildings?” She snipped not sounding herself, well not as you knew her. She sounded harsh and strained like she was upset and had been let down.
“Y-yes ma'am top to bottom, everyone from inside is out here-” The soldier was cut of by Superman who spoke as landed and slowly walked up to Diana in measured steps.
“Shes here, I can hear her… Poor things panicked, frightened… Her hearts just about ready to burst. She can hear us and no doubt see us too” he said stopping beside Diana looping an arm around her waist. He pressed a small kiss to her cheek before eyeing the surronding area, his head didn’t move and it made you shiver and panic. You knew what he was doing, straining his hearing searching for you with just his ears trying to find the direction you were in. Hopefully everyone elses hearts racing will give you cover.
“Alexis come out… I’m not going to hurt you, your not in trouble… Your a good girl and I’m here- we are here to save you… Don’t make me come get you… You know I will sweetheart” you whined as he spoke there was something you didnt trust in his voice. The sweet and jovial Clark you once knew wasn’t there. He had become a kryptonian. Become Kal. A dictator. A ruler. You watched as he heaved a sigh and closed his eyes. And Diana tried once again.
“Please come out, we-we’ve missed you, we wont hurt you we promise we just need to make sure your okay, you should have never been left out here alone! We know you can’t fend for yourself your too little!” She tried, you swallowed and covered your mouth trying to calm your breathing. Ducking again trying to take a few seconds and figure out a way out of this mess.
“Do not make me wait little one, I am not as patient as I once was… now do as your told and get out here now!” Kal huffed and patted Dianas back. You raised your head watching for some reason having them in your sights made you feel a little better, if they were down there they wasnt up her with you. Your hand stayed fixed to your mouth covering the sobs trying to escape. She blinked up at him sadly before muttering dissapointed.
“Shes not going to come out, shes scared, she doesn’t believe us” Kal nodded and growled becomming annoyed with your blatant disrespect, how dare you hide from them!? You belonged to them! He cut off his thoughts and colled down, logically he knew you couldnt help being frightened, he dreads to think what you’ve been through. What you’ve seen how could he expect you to not cower away from them after the past few years seeing them both at their worst. He twisted hi head and grinned down at Diana.
“Then I will have to retrieve her, perhaps she has picked up some bad habbits here… Maybe she isn’t as well behaved as she was” he spoke loud enough to be heard, there were small chatters amongst the crowd each wondering what you’d done to earn the attention of the rulers. How much trouble you were in? You were a street rat like them! Why were they here trying to coax you out?
“Y/n come on love, we know you didnt have anything to do with the him after the regime started, we both know you didn’t join the insurgency. We are here to come and look after you, thats all we just want to take care of you!” Diana pleaded again craning her head around the tops of the buildings you ducked just as she scanned over your hiding place. Kal swore quietly to himself before scanning th buildings around him looking through the bricks for you.
“Little one, I will make a deal with you… If you come out I will leave this town and its people, I will give them a second chance to do better. Leave them with a warning… If not they will be sorted and be given their rightfull placements and pay their penance” you froze as the words sunk in. He was negotiating? He never negotiated. With anyone. You felt your stomach drop, one life for the lives of thousands? Was that fair? Could you do that? You didnt get much time to contemplate as his next words sent shivers down your spine. You felt his eyes land on you before he even spoke.
“I can see you little one” he said with a sigh he sounded let down by you and slowly pointed you out to Diana who gave a worried glance and began moving in your direction slowly.
“Y/N! what are you doing all the way up there? Get away from the edge you could fall!!” You skidded back from the edge as she spoke snipping at you worridly. You scrambled back across the gravel hissing and sobbing as the stone cut into your hands and you thrashed trying to kick your way across the roof to some safety. You got up staggering and darted across the roof in a last desperate attempt to get away and ran, kicking your feet and launching yourself over to the other roof only to fail and slip down between the buildings four stories up. You didn’t even manage a scream as you fell. You’d prayed silently that the fall would kill you. But alas luck was not on your side and you were caught by Diana and seconds later deposited on the ground below. Sat at Kal’s feet.
You sobbed dry heaving hunched over on the spot panicking trying to be physically sick. Not that you had anything in your stomach to bring up, food had been scarce as of late, you needed ration tokens for food and to get them you had to be in the new 'identity’ system which you’d refrained from doing.
“Just what did you think you were doing!? You could have gotten hurt young lady!!” You whimpered as Kal scolded you, voice bellowing down at you making sure to put enough force behind it and make the syllables shake you to your core. You cried out ducking holding your head shaking, quivering at his feet like the others behind you. You could barley see your tears blurring your vision as you held a hand up trying to fend him off. You whimpered out a breathy apology pleading for him not to kill you.
“Ple-please I didn’t I havent-”
“Hush. Now calm down your going to make yourself sick.” His words cut through the air silencing you quickly. You bit your lip whimpering and squinted your eyes tight and waited. The seconds dragged like hours as you waited to feel the heat of his molten gaze hit the back of your head. Everyone watched with baited breath, you could hear a new deafening silence take hold, the sound of death as he rode into town, the intake of breath that everyone held as Kal killed effortlessly. He sighed heavily and stalked closer.
“Honestly? Is that why you didn’t come down? You got yourself stuck on a roof?” He chided as if scolding a child. You sobbed still pleading with him not to hurt you under your breath despite being told to be quiet, you couldnt help it! Somehow it made you feel slightly better. Your mind reeled as you realised you were still breathing.
“Pl-please dont-I I swear I have-nt done anything-I’m not.. I hav-havent broke any rules! Please dont hurt me!” You cried out panicking as your body was wracked with sobs. He stopped just shy of you and crouched moving a hand out to your cheek slowly grazing his fingers acros the damp soft skin.
“Shh shh, I know… We know you left its okay… You’ll be okay I’ve got you” you flinched as he spoke slowly trying to calm you before stretching out and hoisting you up from your underarms like a child. You froze mucles locking as he moved you placing you on shaking legs. You tried pulling back still feeling the need to get away, to run and hide terrified of what ever he had planned. Diana crowded you locking onto your arms placeing both hands on your skin and rubbing hushing you soflty.
You yelped and tried twisting away from the both of them befpre trying to bare down away from Kal. He smiled and rolled his eyes quickly locking a hand around your bicep and plucking you up like a misbehaving child onto his hip.
“Oh come here, stop being so naughty” he uttered with an… Almost Clark like mirth. You stopped immediately shocked by the sliver of the sweet man. He smiled wide turning to face Diana who still stood firm next to you smoothing your hair back and started trying to sooth you herself. You wept spinning trying to keep both of them in your sights still expecting an attack from them.
“Shh shh dont cry your alright darling, your alright everything is going to be okay” you shuddered and wriggled trying to moved off of kals hip wanting nothing more then to hop down and run. You cried harder as he tighted his hold of you and pulled you closer tucking your head into his neck.
“Such a silly thing getting stuck up there~ I knew there was a reason you didnt come out when you were called~” he said moving a hand to pull your hair back from your face as you tried hiding behinde it. You whined flinching as he did making him frown he cast Diana a look. You needed some work, you were terrified.
You shuddered trying to ignore the stares of your neighbours as they each stole forbidden glances at you. No one was allowed to look upon Kal or any of his elites without being asked to. It was the law. You drew jn a deep breath calming trying to find some courage as it became clear he wasnt going to kill you… Unless he’d developed a thing for cruel tricks and mind games.
“I-I’ll come just please-don’t hurt them! They helped me please let them have another chance- I’ll do as you say please!” You begged between sniffles and sobs loo,ing from Diana to Kal praying they would take pity on you. That they remembered how good you’d tried to be for them in the past, how helpful youd tried to be. You wasn’t bad!
“Ah ah ah shush… I know, I know… Don’t cry my sweet girl, smile” he added pulling you away slightly grinning down at you making you shiver. He seemed happy, too happy. The type of happiness joker and other mad men found in chaos. Diana was no better her eyes glinting with a deep longing that unsettled you. It didn’t feel right! None of this felt okay! Diana drew closer to you both and grinned happily placing a hand on your back drawing your attention.
“Shush its all over now, it must have been scary not having someone to look out for you huh?” She cooed again as it talking to a child. You frowned whipping around to face her one hand unconsciously reaching out pressing against Kal as you threw your weight around to face the Amazon.
“Kal, her ribs-” she began worriedly as her hand moved pver your back feeling the boney ribs protuding slightly. You’d lost weight but you wasnt as gaunt as others in the area, but you didnt have a lot of your fat reserves left. Kal tightened his hold of you making you yelp a lottle in surprise.
“I know Diana” he cut her off and moved slowly turning with you bounceing you slightly on his hip.
“Someone hasn’t been looking after herself have they little one?” He said in a condescending tone shaking his head tipping it down looking a you making you shrink feeling… Guilty? You turned away unable to hold his gaze and he scoffed. Pulling you closer hushing you quietly under his breath still bouncing and rocking you, it was meant to sooth but didn’t. All it did was confuse you and make you uneasy flinching each time he changed pattern or direction.
“But its all over now we’ve got you, we’ll look after you.. Come on lets get you home” and without another word he spun on his heals and nodded to the gaurds eitherside of him.
“H-home? Whe-re are you taking me?! N-no put me down! I don’t want to goOw!?” You jolted feeling the stinging in your leg as Diana frowned at you wagging a finger, eyes full of… Anticipation? Excitement almost a glee in her dark eyes as if all her Christmases had come at once.
“Hush you no arguing with your daddy” you froze at the words. Daddy? What the- just what the hell is going on? You frowned and whimpered trying to look and see your leg you felt burned, but in may just be beause you were cold and she’d struck your calf hard enougn to leave a red hand print.
Kals chest rumbled in a small chuckle as Diana couldn’t seem to contain herself, wanting to embark on this new relationship as soon as she could, she was eager. They both were and being referred to as daddy by one of his girls was already filling him with pride. He couldn’t wait to get you home and start coddling you, turning you into their very own good girl. It was going to be a dream having you around. He paused at the soldiers and began dishing out instructions slowly swaying with you on his hip ignoring the looks he got. He didn’t care, they could stare for all he cared, soon they’d get used to seeing his little one on his hip. Little Princesses got carried.
“Take care of this distric sort them and ship them… No executions!” He uttered showing a small mercy, suddenly the crowds began screa,ing and pleading, many calling out to you trying to gain your attention as Kal began walking off with you.
You cried out twisting violently as you peeked over Kal shoulder watching the brutality unfold as the soldiers each began seperateing the people.
“No!-no please don’t they h-helped! They were ki-kind! You s-said youxd lea-ve them? Why aren’t you leav-ing them alone?” You fussed pushing and twisting trying to get off of his hip. But he grunted as you began slipping and rotated you spinning you across his torso and settling you on his other hip wedging you inbetween himself and Diana. He bounced you lightly again treating you like a child. You shook your head panicking moving to point at the people being dragged around and brutalised still screaming calling out to you thinking you could help somehow.
Kal just moved his hand pulling your wrists down tucking then to your tummy and pulled you to his chest pinning them down before scolding you lightly a small scoff in his tone as he spoke down at you.
“Y/N thats enough now, I don’t want you getting yourself all excited” he uttered as he continued down the road away from the scene. You swore and tried fighting him puling this way and that sobbing again as your safe house grew smaller as he strided away with you in his arms.
“B-but no! Ple-ase leave them alone! Plea-please they didn’t- ouch! Nooo! D-Diana!? Stop!” You yelped as Diana moved beside you swiftly landing her hand across your bottom making you yip and you whined more tears flowing freely and squirmed once more making Kal jostle you slightly.
“And you donxt get to call me Diana anymore little lady. From now on you’ll call me Mama~” she anounced face lighting up with a huge grin she had a spring in her step watching you, her eyes glistening with something… Odd.
“W-what? But your? No I cant do that!” You fussed again your struggles intensified but it was no use. Kal was huge, he was soo much stronger than you have no chance. But you couldn’t help it you were scaed and anxious and they wasnt making any sense! Your sobbing began once again as you fought them looseing terribly panic gripped at you as you realised there was nothing you could do, they were goingnto take you to god knows where! And do whatever they wanted. Kal squished you to him and bounced you again cupping the back of your head trying to tuck you under his chin but you wrestled with him tipping back trying to shake his hand. It was Diana who intervened hands at the ready trying to settle you once more.
“Ah no, little one settle down, I don’t want to have to spank you before we even get you home…” She spoke firmly tipping her head at you waiting for you to test her. You froze drawing in a breath and wriggled managing to get a hand free and pawed at your face wiping your nose sniffling.
“Spanking? I d-dont get it!… Yo-your taking me home? Wh-why are you taking m-ee H-home? No No! Let me go! Ple-please Diana! I dont-please this is c-crazy!!” you were cut off with another heavy smack to your bottom making you yelp and jolt clutching at Kal who chuckled over you eyeing Diana. She was giving you another warning glance, to which you cowered away from her digging your hands into Kals shoulder trying to pull yourself around him to get away from the woman who kept striking you.
“Oh come now love its a little early for that isn’t it?” Kal added trying to mediate between you both. You tucked into him unconsciously as his hands smoothed over your back still rocking you slightly. Diana sighed and spoke plainly moveing a hand to Kals side and leant over pressing a kiss to his cheek.
“I don’t want her making such a fuss… She has to do as shes told and mind those manners” you gawked as they spoke over you and whined pressing at the kryptonian wrapped around you wanting to be set free, one hand covering as much of your bottom as you could.
Diana nodded and pressed another kiss to Kal making the man purr at the affection. Then she did the same to you, one warm hand trailing low on your hip curving around to your bottom rubbing the sore spot slightly feeling a tad guilty for swatting you already. You whined and tried leaning away as her face descended to your but you found yourself in a tight spot and she managed to press a soft kiss to your cheek.
“Mama’s sorry little one, we will have to take things slow huh? Such a jumpy little thing, I almost forgot how precious you are~” she added tucking your hair behinde your ears making a mental note of getting hair ties to hold the locks back and stop you from hiding in the thick tresses.
“Well are we ready?” Kal asked the both of you, Diana stepped back and nodded face full of a dark excitment. There was a promise in her eyes that make your stomach churn. You tipped your head to Kal seeing the same look. They had plans for you, and for some reason you get the feeling your not going to like these plans one bit.
“Right now deep breath babygirl” he uttered and croucned down, before you could even think to draw in a breath he moved. Diving into the air with you with a force that made you squeal and clutch at him as the air whipped past you and he tilted as he flew. You curled into him trying to catch your breath as he made the journey home. You closed your eyes trying to imagine being anywhere but here. Willing yourself to disappear as Kal sored across the sky with you, Diana beside him flicking her gaze to you.
All you could do is pray whatever they had planned would be overwith soon. But the way they spoke and the way they eyed you made you think otherwise. You heaved panicking as your lungs burned and you tried to breath but coultny, Kal was too high, moving too fast! You whined as your vision blurred and became dark your final ominous thought before passing out was that you may have been better off with Bruce afterall.
