Super Surprise

 Part of the Superman Defeated Series I'm working on


“No, no please. Whatever I have done, whatever you have against me, leave her alone. Are you truly afraid of me or do you simply hate me? I honestly don't know. But you have no reason to hurt her. There's nothing she could have done to deserve this.”

“You seem awfully certain of that for someone without his memories.”

“I have memories of the last 8 weeks and vague memories of my friends before that. Nikita is in almost every single one of them. Since I woke up I have learned enough of my life to come to exactly two conclusions. 1. I'm alone in the universe. 2. Because of Nikita I don't FEEL so alone. I will fight to my last breath for her if it...” Superman's words seemed to fail him as he let himself fall to his knees. He bowed his head to the ground. “Let her go. I'm the one you want, so take me. Just don't hurt her anymore. Show mercy I beg of you.”


Sir please, whatever I have done to make you my enemy, punish me not her! You hate me, I don't know if you're afraid of me but you hate me. So be it. Whatever you want from me, don't make her suffer for my sins. She is true innocence if such a thing exists on this planet. On that I would stake my life if I could! I'll do whatever you ask I SWEAR it. Just don't hurt her anymore.” He collapsed to the floor, landing on his left hand as he did so. “Put me in her place if you want. I won't fight you. But I beg you: Spare her.”

“...Thank you Superman.” Lex Luthor said almost congenially.


Take off your robe, it offends my sight!” Sarjaq barked to his boy toy. Slowly, barely willingly Oliver undid the cord that secured his only covering. “Prepare yourself.” The master teased.

Sarjaq slapped his favorite pet hard on his naked rear. Several smooth, quick, hard blows. The human trembled but kept his balance, and his silence. Moments later Sarjaq slapped him again, with what could only have been the hard, metal paddle he used for 'innocent foreplay'. Oliver knew what that meant. He had gone from being his masters plaything to his a pet, not even a human slave. As if in confirmation. “Down boy. Down. Come. On. You,. Can. Do. That. At. Least.”

ALREADY HERE


I swear to you I don't understand what's going on. But whatever happened between us, please do not hold my arrogance against her. She is true innocence if such a thing exists on this planet. Whatever you want from me I'll do it. Whatever I have to do to make this right, I will do it. Just stop hurting her!” Superman put his hand to his mouth and bit into his own palm. “You say I'm a monster. Well you haven't said that but you treat me like one. And I accept it. Whatever you want from me. Whatever I did to you or even if I did nothing, don't make her suffer for my sins. Take your revenge on me alone. There must be something that can penetrate my iron flesh. I'll happily submit! Lex raised an eyebrow, but said nothing. “Sir please, whatever I have done, whatever I could have done to make you my enemy, punish me not her! She is more than innocent of any wrongdoing between us. On that I would stake my life. If all you want out of this is my surrender, you have it.”

I swear to you I don't understand what's going on. But whatever happened between us, please do not hold my arrogance against her. She is true innocence if such a thing exists on this planet! Whatever you want from me, you have it. Whatever I have to do to make this right, I will do it. Just stop hurting her!” Superman put his hand to his mouth and bit into his palm. “You say I'm a monster. Well you haven't said that but you treat me like one. And I accept it. I'm not kidding you! I don't know why you hate me. Min Gud I barely know who I am. But whatever you want from me, whatever I did to you or even if I did nothing, dont' make her suffer for my sins. Take your revenge on me alone. There must be something that can penetrate my iron flesh. I'll happily submit.” Lex Luthor raised an eyebrow. “That's what your after, isn't it? You want my surrender. You have it.”

Superman pulled himself down to his knees but looked steadily at Lex Luthor. “I swear to you I don't understand what's going on. But whatever happened between us, please do not hold my arrogance against her. She is true innocence if such a thing exists on this planet!”

“I never thought I'd see the day you give yourself up to save another.” Lex Luthor mused.

Sir, for reasons I can't quite explain, she is precious to me. If there is one truth of which I need no convincing, it's that she is innocent. If you hurt her my restraint will go out the window. And I might end up killing you. I don't deny that and I won't. But if you spare her, you can do whatever you want with me__in payment of that debt.” He threw himself to the floor, before Lex Luthor. “I'll do whatever you ask, I SWEAR it! Put me in her place if you want. I won't fight you. All I ask is that – no I BEG of you – let her go.”
