Batman is, of course, real.

But at this moment, he couldn't summon up the courage to meet him.

Superman clenched his fists.

He is hovering over the metropolis alone... The Son of Krypton gazes at his city obsessively.

He knew he should talk to Bruce.Either Bruce is fine... In fact, Dr. Banner even offered to talk to him after returning to the fort, but he still refused the other party's offer.

do not know what to do.I don't know where to go.I don't understand why it suddenly became like this.

He also laughed with Iron Man in the morning.But at this moment, he began to worry—worried that he would become enemies with them and his friends... What Savage said was not nonsense.He always knew he had a problem.But never realized the problem was so serious.

Superman closed his eyes.

- He shouldn't be like this.

He shouldn't be anyone's nightmare.

...but he couldn't stop himself.He wants to ask for help.He wanted to go find his friends—he wanted to ask them questions.

What should I ask?How does Batman stay true to himself when he knows things are going to go bad?Or is it time to ask how The Flash can still have good intentions in the face of the worst criminals?There will of course be answers to these questions.But which answer can really convince him, which answer can really change him?

Superman covered his face.

Clark Kent hangs high in the air.He lost his composure for five seconds.

Then he heard a woman crying.Superman immediately twisted his body and flew there.

………………

Clark turned in the first draft the next afternoon.And Perry has clearly fallen into some sort of 'Stark fever'.He looked miraculously satisfied, not at all surprised by his diametrically opposed attitudes towards Starkner and Luthor.This did make him a little relieved.

Clark rubbed his hair and returned to his place.Superman messed up his black hair even more.He almost let himself lean back into the chair completely... He contacted Professor X this morning, hoping that Charles would tell Magneto that he planned to meet him again.He brought up Rick Jones.So the professor said that he must pay attention to... very good.very good.At least he can help a friend with this matter.Hopefully this time he can take Rick back to the fort with him.

And the 'town plan' is already in progress.The executives keep their word.After he 'dealt' with the Hulk, planning for this mutant town has indeed begun.That's what Fury had told him yesterday—it was so kind.Knowing that I've done something really good...it's nice.

The young man raised his glasses and rubbed his eyebrows.

...He hesitated whether he should visit the prison.He didn't know...he didn't know if he could always hold back.Savage's words had a big enough impact on him.It made him want to ask his prisoner.He also wanted to know what he looked like to them.

But he doesn't really care.

All night last night, he dealt with a domestically violent man and extinguished a potentially hurtful wildfire.He took the knives from some gangsters and helped a drunk lady go home... He flew out of the metropolis and everywhere.Clark Kent hadn't allowed himself a moment's rest all night, seeking out anyone in need.

So Superman returned to calm smoothly.So Clark Kent looked directly at himself again.

He really just doesn't care about them.

Don't care about their fear, don't care about their suffering, even... don't care about their life or death.He can't treat some criminals equally... He's not perfect.

— and he wasn't sure he needed to be perfect either.Clark realizes that he does need to talk to someone... and thankfully, he does have someone other than the Bruces.

Clark Kent stayed out of get off work.He grabbed his coat and dove into the crowd at the Metropolis.He went back to his cheap rented room and ripped off all the skins of mortals.Superman puts on his uniform, looks back at the giant 's' in the mirror... Clark soars into the air.Fly to Xavier Academy of Mutants.

Unfortunately, most of the students on the playground today are freshmen.So when the silent Son of Krypton landed in the middle of the lawn of the academy...he had to face the stunned expressions of almost all the students.

Clark smiled softly again.He tried to defuse these fears with kindness—the smile shone brightly in the sun, making the little mutants even more amazed.They have indeed gained more happiness in this campus, but they still rarely find kindness on the faces of outsiders.

The freshmen exchanged puzzled glances. They were not sure if this was a new 'one of us' or a new teacher? …Until the famous little mutant who was born in a metropolis couldn’t hold back, he shouted loudly: “Superman! Is this a real person??”

--certainly.Of course it's a real person.

"Are you a mutant? Are you a mutant too??"

He is cheerful and innocent.Metropolis is one of the few cities that can tolerate mutants.Unbeknownst to him, he was sent to this school by his parents because Superman had mentioned it in an interview.His question brought a little helplessness to Clark's smile.Before Superman could explain, a rough and direct voice sounded from behind him:

"He's not. He's an alien."

Clark's mood suddenly became very good.He turned his head...and saw the owner of the voice.

Logan-Wolverine's face showed obvious impatience and a little disgust.He waved his hand like chasing chickens, signaling the gathered children to disperse quickly.For this reason, Storm had to give him a slight nudge.The beautiful woman gave Clark a friendly nod and said hello.Just bypass him and walk towards the children.

Logan scratched his beard, and he raised his eyes to meet Superman's silly smile... The man used an even more grumpy tone to cover up his unease:

"You didn't have an appointment, did you. Uninvited guests aren't welcome—"

Clark laughed out loud.He took the initiative to pat Wolverine on the shoulder.At this moment, he seemed to be alive again... He looked happily at this friend who had been hard-spoken and soft-hearted since the first meeting.

"I'm popular enough, I have to be annoying if necessary to maintain our friendship—long time no see, Logan." Superman's voice was gentle and accommodating.Like a grumpy lad. "It is true that there is no appointment. Is the professor there?"

Logan's brows never loosened.Annoyed, he turned and left.Wolverine has a great stride, and Superman floats behind him with ease.

"If he hadn't asked me to come out to meet you, do you think I would have come to see you for the excitement?"

The other party's inappropriate words made Clark smile again.He'd never needed a welcome - but Superman didn't tell the lie about his 'big friend'.He smiled and followed the other party and floated into the academy.
