(Lois Lane vs Bizarro.)

Chapter two:

High above the streets of Metropolis, Lois Lane was locked in battle. Her opponent wore a similar custome to her, but his skin was white as chalk, and his body distorted. This was an imperfect Superman clone, otherwise known as...

Bizzaro!

Lois Lane knocked the clone through the air with a punch. Bizzaro managed to steady himself, and flew towards Lois Lane at breathtaking speed.

The Eradicator no hurt Bizarro! Said Bizarro.

He made contact with Lois Lane, and forced her downwards towards the city. They hurtled downwards with such velocity that, upon contact, they created a trench in the concrete of the street. As Bizzaro rose to his feet, he grinned at the sight of the unconscious Lois Lane.

Heh heh... Bizzaro saved the day! Bizarro is a hero! Bizarro, ungh! Said Bizarro.

A punch to the jaw cut short Bizarro's speech. As he rolled backwards down the street, Lois Lane rose to her feet and launched herself towards Bizzaro. She then proceeded to deliver a flurry of punches to the clone, knocking him into the nearest skyscraper.

You rock, Eradicator!

Lois Lane smiled at the group of teenagers who had stayed in the street to watch. Just then, loud groaning was heard as Bizarro clambered back out into the street.

No fair! Bizarro supposed to win! He promised! Said Bizarro.

Who promised? Asked Lois Lane, but Bizarro flew towards her again, Lois Lane blocked every punch that Bizarro threw at her, before throwing her arms out, forcing Bizarro backwards.

Kick his butt, Eradicator!

Amidst more cheers from the growing crowd, Lois Lane sped forward. Bizarro flew upwards to avoid him, and turned around as his eyes began to glow blue. Beams then shot out from his eyes, and, as they made contact with an approaching Lois Lane, she was quickly frozen solid.

Oh no! Look at that! C'mon Eradicator! Said Bizarro.

The crowd watched in shock as the block of ice which entrapped Lois Lane fell to the ground. Bizarro swayed to and fro in the air, in an awkward dance of celebration at his victory.

Bizarro is the winner! Bizarro the winner! Said Bizarro.

Wait, look! Said someone amongst the crowd of teenagers.

A small boy in the now large crowd pointed at the block of ice. As everyone else looked, they could see that the ice was beginning to melt, due to the two red dots of pure heat glowing at the top.

It's Eradicator's heat vision! Yelled the boy.

Huh? Said Bizarro.

As the ice began to crack, Bizarro turned his attention to it. Suddenly, with an almighty smash, the ice block completely shattered. As everyone shielded themselves from ice shard's, Lois Lane rocketed upwards, grabbed Bizarro by his custome, and threw him down onto the concrete of the street.

As the crowd cheered, Lois Lane descended to the ground, as Bizarro struggled to rise.

Give up, Bizarro, she said. This is pointless.

No... Bizarro must fight... Bizarro not want to make him angry... Said Bizarro.

Who? Asked Lois Lane. Lex Luthor?

Bizarro roared angrily, and threw a punch, which Lois Lane caught in her hand. Bizarro groaned in pain as he felt his bones crack.

Last chance, Bizarro... give up now! Said Lois Lane.

Bizarro no give up! Replied Bizarro.

Alright then, if that's what you want. Said Lois Lane.

Lois Lane swung her arm back, and threw an uppercut that sent Bizarro flying into the air. Lois Lane flew upwards, and as her fist met Bizzaro's falling body, the clone was sent rocketing forwards, crashing into the side of a building.

Yeah! You the girl, Eradicator! You kicked his butt! We love you, Eradicator!

The crowd cheered, whistled and yelled after Eradicator, as she flew across to pick up Bizzaro's lifeless body as he fell from the building side. However, not everyone revelled in the Woman of Steel's latest victory.

No, no no!

In the executive office of Lexcorp, Lex Luthor vented his anger at yet another failed attempt at destroying Eradicator.

That pathetic reject! He roared. It was supposed to be the ultimate weapon against that vigilante freak, and once again, it has failed me! Said Lex Luthor.

Roaring in frustration, he slammed both fists hard upon his desk.

Lex, calm down... Said Mercy Graves.

Don't tell me to calm down! Replied Lex Luthor.

Mercy Graves, Luthor's chauffer, flinched slightly at the outburst, but she quickly composed herself. She was used to this behavior from him.

Just listen to me Lex, she said calmly. There are some other options open to us, that android Metallo for instance... Said Mercy Graves.

No, you don't understand! Just killing her isn't enough anymore! Replied Lex Luthor.

Lex? Said Mercy Graves.

Luthor groaned, as he turned to look out of his window. He could see and hear the large crowd below cheer Eradicator as she flew off, with the lifeless Bizarro in tow.

Listen to those fools, growled Lex Luthor. Cheering that overpowered, overrated fool. They probably don't even consider how oh so easily she could crush them into dust! Said Lex Luthor.

Well, that's probably because it's not in her nature, said Mercy Graves. You yourself call her the girl scout, she wouldn't lay a finger on any of those people down there. She doesn't have it in her.

Oh, that's where you're wrong, Mercy... or have you forgotten about the time when Darkseid invaded earth? Replied Lex Luthor.

Mercy scoffed.

I don't think anyone will be forgetting that anytime soon. Said Mercy Graves.

Then you'll remember Eradicator's actions on that fateful day? Said Lex Luthor. She held no punches that day, did she? Were Darkseid a lesser being, Eradicator would surely have torn him apart!

Well, if Eradicator had held her punches, we'd all be dead. Replied Mercy Graves.

Are you defending her now? Snapped Lex Luthor.

No, I'm merely saying what they're all thinking... that her actions were justified, explained Mercy. Darkseid is no push over, after all.

But would they think the same if that unstoppable rage was unleashed upon them? Said Lex Luthor, smirking.

So... you want to turn Metropolis against her first? Replied Mercy Graves.

Precisely, said Lex Luthor. Imagine if the citizens of Metropolis saw Eradicator as I did, they would want her taken down, by any means necessary. Said Lex Luthor.
