Being Scared (Landon/Open)

[Catherine Kent]

Cat huddled in her cell away from the door. She was very weak, and of course very scared. The room was lined with what else but kryptonite, and it was slowly draining her strength and powers. She was as helpless as a newborn calf. She wished her father or her siblings would come and get her, but then they wouldn’t be able to break her out of her cell. They were all vulnerable to this mineral, and different colors did different things to them. The green variety made her and her family weak, while the red caused them to typically alter their personality. Usually in such a way that they get very angry and mad.

From the way she was feeling, it seems that this man had lined the cell with green kryptonite. And it was of course poisonous to her. If she is continuously exposed to this mineral, she might as well die. She was already greatly weakened and powerless due to what exposure she has already had. She didn’t know how much longer before she showed more side effects of the mineral, and then die. She didn’t really want to die, she would rather much be at home with her family. Where she would be safe and sound. Where her father and older siblings can watch over her.

However, Cat had a very strong feeling that if she does survive this, that they wouldn’t let her out of their sight once this is all over. She wouldn’t mind of course, as she is the baby after all. She is the one that needs to be protected as she isn’t quite versed in the world of superheroes and saving innocent people and whatnot. She is just a child who can fly, lift cars over her head, run faster than a speeding bullet, and other things that a human can’t do. She then really wishing that she was indeed home with her family, and not locked up somewhere in a kryptonite lined cell somewhere with a crazy man who wants to do only god knows what with her.

Landon was somewhat pleased with his recently made progress. He had captured the Super Kid in Paris and was ready to conduct his first project. He monitored the girl in her captivity from the screens in the main chamber. The girl looked terrified to be there, knowing that she is absolutely powerless, unaware of what could possibly happen to her. Although Landon always saw her as a powerful being, she looked nothing more than a human girl to him now, in fact with the kryptonite containment she might as well be just that.

”Keep monitoring her vitals, decrease the amount of radiation when necessary, we want her alive.”

“Yes, sir”

Landon approached a large pair of metallic doors which opened themselves automatically. The area was large and built from reinforced Titanium, in the room was only a slightly smaller cell that was made of what appeared to be thick green glass, but was instead kryptonite. He placed his palm on a scanner in front of the cell and opened the door to the cell. It was rather large and contained a bed, a mirror, a dresser, pretty much everything a normal room would contain, though it might be useless to have such. He stepped toward the girl, stopping a few feet away from her. Even without his kryptonite blasters, he felt like he was under control. Under normal circumstances he’d understand that she could kill him easily, but now he had the sense of assurance that he was now much more powerful than her. ”Hello, Catherine. You gave me quite a run in France. You could’ve come quietly, but you didn’t and now you’re in this mess. Have anything to say?” He looked at her, waiting for an answer.
