Those stairs were an exercise routine all on their own, what was there? Five hundred steps?
"Come on, slowcoach." Connor said grabbing my wrist and dragging me to the dining hall.

Wow

This place is spectacular.
Impressive for a super villain, I must say. How do super-villians even become rich? Maybe everything's fake like their personalities. Just for confirmation, I rubbed the peach curtain against my cheek, ah that is expensive.
"What are you doing?" Connor burst into laughter as I shuffled away from the curtain I'd happily sleep in.
Connor and I found the dining area after repeated attempts (which included getting stuck in a shoe closet and that wasn't just pretty)
"Ah, I'm so glad you could join me." Lex brandished his arms wide, I thought he expected a hug but, I realised it was just a gesture.
Connor stiffened and crossed his arms, I saw him bite his lips before announcing "We are not sitting down, we are not having breakfast - " okay I pouted at that because the last time I scoffed my face it was with Robin's energy bars and then Wally took me for a spin around the cave (not a good mix) " - we are doing nothing but leaving because you have given us nothing but lies!"
Connor turned forcefully away like a sulky seven year old and strode into the hall, waiting for me I expect.
I watched my left foot shift towards my right foot, my knobby knees, the rip in my jeans (that damn dog!) and, just noticing, how awful my hair was.
I don't know why I was scared, there was no reason to be, not for him. I am never scared, ever. Not even of those dogs.
"Kara, would you like to sit?" He said motioning towards one of those lovely seats with embroiled flowers which were kind of cream -
What am I doing?
"No." I said firmly "I'm leaving."
I turned to follow Connor, the same shameless strut, more like a ruddy wobble in my case.
There was no trap doors, no forceful doors that held our exit, no bullet proof robots, nothing to stop us leaving.
Taking no chances, I grabbed Connor's hand and ran out the doors, the endless barking of those dogs started but I ran fast over the lawn, we clumsily jumped over a hedge and ended up knee deep in water.
"C'mon," Connor said, trudging out of the water with me close behind.
There were no pleas, no screams or yells, shriek. It wasn't silence, but nothing was holding us back.
We walked for a while, the pier was far from here, we ended up in some smoothie beach cafe, the types that having the waitresses serve you in squeaky European accents and wearing flower crowns.
"What can I get ya?" She said, flipping her notebook out and using her teeth to pull the lid of her pen. Gross, were we actually going to eat here?
Connor was trying to understand the menu, aw - he'd been he longer than me and still didn't quite grasp it. I took the menu, and randomly selected a drink.
"Two of these, please." I said as she dotted it down and sashayed off.
"What are we gonna do?" Connor said as soon as she was out of earshot. I drummed my fingers on the bright blue menu, kind of regretting my choice of 'Hawaiian Hulu' whatever that was.
"I don't think he's being honest," I started "about everything."
"But he's right about something, I was found in a lab, you weren't." he pointed out.
"Yes, but how does that explain I end up in a crater under a field." I sighed, this was so confusing.
He shrugged "Superman may of - "
"Superman isn't the bad guy here!" I yelled, the person who was making my 'Hawaiian Hulu' dropped the glass and had to start again, thankfully it was early in the morning and the cafe was empty.
"He - superman - is not the bad guy." I hastily whispered just so Connor could hear.
He looked painfully at me, as if there was something he wanted to say. Instead, he dropped his eyes to the menu and repeatedly scanned it as I sighed.
"Let's just go home..." I huffed, kicking Connor's leg under the table.
His eyes darted to mine, his mouth turned into a little 'O' shape as he spoke "But - why? We've - but - Kara!"
"Please," I explained "We're not getting any where - we got kidnapped by the supervillain and look what's happened? A few big dogs and nothing else! Forget about it, just - let's leave."
I stood up, knocking my chair back with force. Crouching down to reach it, I thought about my decision. Its true, we aren't getting anywhere, so it's time to go home. It was just a stupid and time wasting plan!
Stomping out of the café, I leaned against the hard brick wall. Connor joined me a few minutes after, he commented about us just leaving, without paying.
"I'm sorry, Connor." I mumbled, stretching my fingers to his, joining hands.
"Nah, must've been a waste of time for sure," he said "Hey - I bet we've been missed."
I jumped, startled "Oh my - what will they do? We've been gone, they must've been angry or worried or - "
"Relax - just say it was a private mission, they won't care."
"What if Superman or the others ask?"
He shrugged "Tell big ol' Supes you don't care what he thinks - tell the others its none of their business - we'll think about it, Sis."
Sis.
Did - did he just sis me?
I relaxed, hm...sis.
"Alright, Bruv." I tried as his expression faltered.
"No, no, don't ever repeat that." he laughed as we walked down the block.

SORRY!
I haven't updated since Christmas, I've been concentrating on a few other stories, some of them unpublished.
