What's next?

Diana draws Superman out

The next evening midtown in a Metropolis sky scraper one of the tallest in the city from inside its penthouse, there's a sudden explosion, then flames flicker behind the windows. Through curtained French doors, the flames are spreading and smoke is rising. Diana stands in the doorway, holding a lit lighter. Rolf steps up behind her Neither seems at all concerned by the fire "Nice work." He says Diana clicks off the lighter "Thanks" "how long till the flames engulf this floor?" Asks Rolf "Six, maybe seven minutes. How do I look?" She asks "Fabulous naturally." Replies Rolf She turns and steps into the light, a striking beauty with the soul of a born predator. Rolf opens a compact so she can inspect her face, a slightly older woman but beauty like hers is eternal she's wearing a tailored suit cut to exemplify and accentuate her curves. "See him yet?" She asks as Rolf studies the sky above.

Meanwhile at the daily planet Lois and Clark are at their desks Clark hangs up the phone "The fax should be here in a few minutes and we can finally get out of here. Okay..." Says Clark, Lois begins to respond but he doesn't hear it as something else is drowning it out "...fire at the Metropolitan...Penthouse...can't get up there the winds are too strong" he makes his excuses and leaves leaving Lois frustrated and perplexed as usual "Was it something I said? No he's insane that's what it is, maybe I make them insane? Maybe I'm insane I mean I am talking to myself" she ponders as he leaves and returns to her monitor.

Back at the penthouse Diana and Rolf are outside near the edge. The searing light of the fire plays across their faces as smoke drifts by. Rolf is scanning the skies with a pair of high-tech binoculars. Diana smears a gold cream on her hands with a dispenser. It gives a slight sparkle on her fingers. She freshens up her lipstick and turns to Rolf "Do you see him yet?", Rolf excitedly "Yes he's coming this way". Diana hands the dispenser to Rolf who puts it away "Oh where is your charm?" He asks she pulls out a crescent moon shaped charm from her blouse "I always have my charm" she tucks it back in they air kiss and approaches the ledge "Show time" she says as she turns, extends her arms like an Olympic diver and swan dives off the side of the building.

She's plummeting like a stone face first as she sees the impending doom below suddenly she starts to think that this wasn't the best idea she's closes her eyes and scream she hears a WOOSH she opens her eyes and she's in the arms of the man of steel "Don't worry I've got you" he says, she beams at him "Yes, yes you do" she runs her arms around his neck holds him tightly so his face touches her bosom he looks uncomfortable as she tenderly rubs the gold cream into his skin.

Superman uses his super breath to put out the fire while Diana and Rolf watch on, Rolf is holding a tracking device in his hand as it powers on Rolf asks "Are you sure you tagged him?", "On the neck...are you getting a reading?", "Not yet" he replies "Here adjust it to a higher frequency" Superman enters the terrace Rolf quickly throws the tracker into his bag "It's all right, the fire's out." Says superman as Rolf and Diana feign great relief. "Superman I'm Diana Stride" Diana walks upto Superman and kisses him straight on the mouth "Thank you so much for saving me and my camera man" she watches on smiling waiting for Superman to fawn over her, but nothing "Yes, Ms. Stride, I've seen your news show" Diana frowns touching her lips as Rolf's camera light goes on. He is now filming Diana and Superman. "Really. You watch TV?", "Once in a while" He rubs his neck where Diana touched him. Rolf and Diana glance at one another. Diana points at Rolf "This is my cameraman Rolf.", "It is a Pleasure", "What were you two doing up here, anyway?" Asks Superman, "We came to get some vista shots for a piece Diana's doing on urban renewal" replied Rolf Superman scratches his neck now. Rolf has to hide a smile "Then we just stumbled into an exclusive I can't imagine how this fire got started can you, Rolf?", "I simply can't", Superman steps away from the pair Diana instinctively steps forward bringing herself closer to him "I checked the elevator, it's still working. You should be able to get down okay" Diana lays a hand on his chest "Superman, if there's ever anything I can do for you..." Superman looks at her "Take care, Ms. Stride (still scratching) Nice to meet you, Rolf" and with that he flies away Rolf lowers the camera "The lipstick didn't work there's not a man whosever been able to resist it...I'm not a fan of rejection" says Diana as she lifts the tracker. It beeps. She smiles. "It's working we can track him (the beeping stops) wait what's wrong?" She asks "He's so fast, he just flew out of range". Diana lifts her hands in frustration "No matter we'll find him tomorrow".
