A/N: Originally a picto-story. #NO_HOMO, unless you happen to be Jonathan Kent II, a literal abortion of literary creativity.

Clark Kent wasn't terribly careful on his last patrol as Superman.
In fact, I was counting on the Boy Scout to be as careless as the files I soft-cloned from the Batman made him to be. Personally, I couldn't blame Kal-El for developing some measure of hubris. Only Alexander ('Lex') Luthor or Batman could best the Man of Steel, but where the former was blinded by his megalomania and the latter by his personal code of ethics, I was not bound by anything. My years spent in the Playground convinced me that individuals get served strange fates.
In fact, I found the strange blue and pink stone while exploring the mystery-laden "Playground".
