I hadn’t been on the planet long and I really wanted to look around and see why Clark thought it was so good. But there were places he told me I shouldn’t go on my own, Gotham was one of them.
I don’t know why he was being so big brother about it, or should that be big cousin? Well, anyway he doesn’t have to be like that, I mean I’m not a child and my parents sent me to earth to look after him! And I travelled like, thousands of miles in a spaceship to get here AND survived it crash-landing
But anyway, I had just stopped a plane crashing into Ottawa, which was a nice place, superman let me do it because he was saving Metropolis from something again, so he said I could take care of the plane. On my way back to Metropolis I got kind of lost, so I was following road signs and I saw one for Gotham. I had to think about it for a bit because Clark had said that it was full of scary people and monsters and stuff, but I had always wondered if he was just saying that so I wouldn’t go. But there I was, hovering in front of the sign post and I couldn’t resist. I mean what could be so bad? I am kinda indestructible!
It took me a couple of minutes to get to the edge of the City and it did look really different from Metropolis, really dark and dirty, but I was there, so I might as well have a look.
As I was flying between some dirty buildings with loads of rubbish and graffiti everywhere, I’m suddenly hit by this guy. He fell right on top as me as I flew past and he bounced off me a bit, but I grabbed him before he fell any further.
He kept screaming as I flew him up to the top of the building, I figured it must have been his house and he just slipped or something.
But as I flew up I saw you poke your head over the side of the building and I thought you were a cop or something.
‘I think you dropped some one’ I said
But you didn’t say anything back, which I thought was strange, but as I put the man down I saw why you didn’t say anything.
I was so shocked, it was horrible, you had no mouth, no eyes and no nose, well I mean you had a nose, but only the shape of a nose. I quickly thought that Clark was right and Gotham was filled with monsters, and I started to fly away.
You must have seen the look on my face because you quickly said
‘Hey, don’t worry, it’s just a mask’ you reached your hand out towards me
The guy who I saved tried to get up and you punched him in the face. When he was knocked out, you looked straight back to me, it felt like you were kind of staring at me, even though I couldn’t see your eyes.
‘A mask?’ I asked ‘really?’
I flew forward towards you, trying to get a better look
‘Yeah, I’m a crime fighter. I was chasing him, He mugged a woman a couple of blocks away...’ You said pointing your arm behind you but still looking at me.
I reached out to touch the mask and you moved away quickly
‘Hey! What you doing?’ you sounded annoyed and swatted at my hand
I just wanted to see what it was because I could see your mouth moving under the mask and you could obviously breathe and see through it. But you didn’t want me too so I pulled my hand away quickly.
‘Sorry’ I said
‘No, that’s okay..... But you can’t take my mask off’ you said in a kinder voice
‘Does everyone in Gotham wear masks?’ I asked ‘Batman and his side-kicks all seem to’
‘Erm... I don’t think EVERYONE does, but a lot of us do’ You answered
I thought that was strange, why wear masks? Maybe people in Gotham were uglier than people in Metropolis. I thought I’d check, so I leaned a little closer to you and used my x-ray vision to look through your mask and look at your face.
‘But you’re beautiful’ I couldn’t understand why someone so beautiful would cover their face in something so hideous
‘What?’ you asked, then you got angry again ‘You looked through my mask? You can’t do that’
‘Yes I can, I’m Supergirl, I have x-ray vision’ I put my hands on my hips, like I’ve seen Clark do, and stuck my chest out a bit just in case you hadn’t noticed my ‘S’
You laughed, ‘Yeah, I noticed’
‘Oh’
‘So... what are you doing in Gotham? Is there some kind of crisis or.......?’ You asked me
‘Nope, I was just in the area and thought I’d have a look around, I’m not really meant to be here’ I whispered the last bit
‘Why aren’t you meant to be here?’
‘Superman says that.... well... that it’s not a nice place, so I’m not meant to be here alone’ I probably shouldn’t have told you that
‘It’s really not that bad, how much have you seen?’
‘Just this part, that man landed on me before I could see anywhere else’
‘Are you okay? Did he hurt you?’ you asked me looking down at the still unconscious man
‘Erm’ I thought it was strange that you asked me that, I’m Supergirl and I’m, like, super strong, but it was nice that you were concerned.
‘No, I’m fine’ I smiled
‘Good, that’s good.......and you know Gotham can be nice, we have some nice parks, in the daylight, and some nice buildings.... and ...er.... and a lovely glass house and museums and an amusement park too..... perhaps I could show you around some time?’
‘Really? You’d show me round? That would be great, I don’t know that many people here yet, so I’d like that’ I was really pleased you asked me because I needed to find some friends of my own and you seemed really nice and you were really pretty, under the mask.
‘Will you have to wear the mask though? I think it’s kind of ...... scary’ I asked
‘Er.....well...... ‘
You seemed a bit confused
‘I’ve already seen your face, so you don’t have to hide it and...... you shouldn’t hide it’ I shouldn’t have said that last part
‘I don’t have to wear it I suppose.... it depends on where we go and when...’ You said
‘Cool, I’d much rather look at your face than your mask’ I smiled and you laughed
‘sooo, are you busy tomorrow?’
‘Nope, well, I don’t think so anyway, it might depend on whether there is a comet coming to earth or something’ I really hoped there wasn’t.
‘How about we meet at the clock tower at about 7:00?’ you asked me and pointed. I followed where you were pointing and saw in the distance a large clock.
‘Oh my! Is that the time? I have to go, it’s really late’ I panicked a bit because Clark would be worried about where I was, and I don’t think he’d like me being in Gotham at 2:00 in the morning.
I lifted off the ground and was ready to leave and you looked up at me and asked
‘Will you meet me?’
‘Oh yes, of course I will, 7:00 in the evening, right?’ Why wouldn’t I meet you? I was already looking forward to it. You nodded
‘Er..... What direction is Metropolis?’ I wanted to make sure I didn’t get lost again.
You pointed ‘It’s in that direction’
I was so pleased that you knew I didn’t want to spend the rest of the night trying to get home.
‘Thanks’ I said and waved ‘See you tomorrow’ you waved back and I flew away.
I did have a quick look back and you still seemed to be watching me.
On the way back to Metropolis I was thinking I was really pleased I did go to Gotham, even if I wasn’t meant to. If I’d waited for Clark to take me I would never have met you and I wouldn’t have been meeting you again the next day. It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

‘Hey, do you remember when we first met?’
‘Don’t be silly! Of course I do’ you said ‘Do you?
~
I’d been out working for a couple of hours, trying to find some information on a gang who were selling hallucinogens on street corners. I was standing in an alley having a break and wishing that coffee shops were open this late, when I heard a scream. I looked down the street to see some guy attacking a woman and taking her bag. He knocked her over and ran in my direction. I was pretty tired, but thought I could easily just jump on him as he ran past the alley. Unfortunately he ran to the alley opposite mine and climbed up to the roof, why he thought that was a good idea I have no idea, but I followed him.
He stopped on the roof to see what was in the handbag, but when he saw me climb onto the roof, he ran for it. He was one of those idiots who thought running over roofs was a good idea, so we spend about five minutes running and jumping from roof to roof, he was getting tired like I was and that’s when it happened.
I could see he was slowing down but he jumped anyway, I knew he couldn’t make it to the next building, but there was nothing I could do. I waited for the inevitable thud, but when it didn’t come I poked my head over the edge of the building. And that’s when I saw you.
You were holding the guy by the back of his belt and he was screaming. You flew from between the buildings and hovered in front of me.
‘I think you dropped some one’ you said
But I couldn’t say anything, I was mesmerized by you. I’d heard that superman had a sister or something and I’d seen pictures of you and superman in the papers, but the pictures did you no justice at all, you were the most beautiful person I had ever seen.
At the time I was quite pleased that no one can see my face through my mask, because I was staring at you so badly.
You were like some kind of angel, all golden hair, beautiful blue eyes and bright colours. A bright star in the dark Gotham night.
I didn’t notice that you’d landed and put the guy down, but I did notice the scared look on your face as you looked at mine, you backed away and rose off the ground.
‘Hey, don’t worry, it’s just a mask’ I said quickly hoping that you wouldn’t leave, I reached out towards you, not really sure what I was going to do.
You stopped flying away and glanced away from me, I followed your eyes to see the thug you saved, he was trying to stand up, but I didn’t want to deal with him at the time, so I punched him in the face, which luckily knocked him out, so I could carry on staring at you.
‘A mask? Really?’ you said flying forward to take a closer look.
‘Yeah, I’m a crime fighter’ I said hoping that might impress you ‘I was chasing him, he mugged a woman a couple of blocks away...’ I pointed in the direction I had run from only a couple of minutes ago, but I still couldn’t take my eyes off you.
My attention sprang back to reality when I noticed you reach out towards my mask.
I pulled back ‘Hey! What you doing?’ You pulled your hand away quickly and looked upset. I didn’t mean to raise my voice, but I was scared you might have taken off my mask. And in Gotham an unmasked hero is not a good thing.
‘Sorry’ you said in a sad voice that made my chest hurt.
‘No, that’s okay....’ I said, you looked a little less sad. Then I thought about it, Superman didn’t wear a mask and neither did some of the other people superman might have introduced you to, so I said ‘But you can’t take my mask off’
You then looked like you were thinking about something ‘Does everyone in Gotham wear masks? Batman and his side-kicks all seem to’ you asked earnestly, landing in front of me.
‘I don’t think EVERYONE does’ I said thinking about it ‘but a lot of us do’ actually I think most of us in Gotham do, but I couldn’t think straight with you standing so close to me and I was still so pleased that you couldn’t tell I was staring at you.
You looked confused again, then you leaned closer to me and I was frozen in place, how could you look so beautiful after flying here from where ever it was you came from?
‘But you’re beautiful’ you said,
‘What?’ I asked. I thought I’d imagined it for a second and then I panicked because I thought you had read my mind. Then I realised you could see through things
‘You looked through my mask? You can’t do that’ It’s cheating, I thought
‘Yes I can, I’m Supergirl, I have x-ray vision’ you say innocently, then you put your hands of your hips like superman does on the front of the Daily Planet and then to my surprise and awe you stuck your chest out. I stared, I admit, but what was I meant to do? Then I wondered what Superman’s reaction would be to me staring at Supergirl’s boobs. But you standing there like that was pretty cute.
I laughed ‘yeah, I noticed’
‘Oh’ you said a little crestfallen
‘So....’ I had to think of something to say so you wouldn’t leave too soon ‘What are you doing in Gotham?’ It was a little strange to have a Super here ‘Is there some kind of crisis or...?’ If there was something major I could help with, that would have been pretty good too.
‘Nope’ you said ‘I was just in the area and thought I’d have a look around’ At night? I thought that was strange ‘I’m not really meant to be here’ you whispered. That made a little more sense.
‘Why aren’t you meant to be here?’
‘Superman says that...’ you stopped and looked a little nervous ‘well... that it’s not a nice place, so I’m not meant to be here alone’ So that’s what Superman thinks of Gotham? And he stopped you from coming here?
‘It’s not that bad, how much have you seen?’
‘Just this part’ you sounded a bit guilty ‘that man landed on me before I could see anywhere else’ I hadn’t thought about how you happened to get hold of him.
‘Are you okay? Did he hurt you?’ I looked at the thug; I would beat the crap out of him if he had.
‘Erm, No I’m fine’ you frowned then smiled at me and I was dazzled. I’d never seen a smile so bright or anyone look so beautiful standing on a dirty roof top in Gotham.
‘Good, that’s good’ I was glad he hadn’t hurt you, but I wanted to get you to stick around or at least come back so I could see you again. ‘And you know Gotham can be nice, we have nice parks, in the daylight, and some nice buildings..’ oh, god what else is nice in Gotham, I had to make it sound nice ‘and... er...and a lovely glass house and museums and an amusement park, too’ that didn’t really sound that good ‘Perhaps I could show you around some time?’ I couldn’t believe I’d said that
‘Really?’ you asked excited ‘you’d show me round? That would be great, I don’t know that many people here yet, so I’d like that’ you smiled that smile again and I’m so glad that I did ask.
Then you looked a little worried again ‘Will you have to wear the mask though? I think it’s kind of... scary’ you looked guilty, as if Supergirl shouldn’t say things like that
‘er...well...’ what do I say? I didn’t know you well enough, or at all really, to meet you without my mask on.. then you interrupted my thoughts
‘I’ve already seen your face, so you don’t have to hide it.....and you shouldn’t hide it’ I think you may have blushed
‘I don’t have to wear it, I suppose... it depends on where we go and when...’ if I take you to dinner I wouldn’t wear it, I thought.
‘Cool, I’d much rather look at your face than your mask’ you smiled again and I couldn’t help but laugh, this could be the best night of my life.
‘Soo, are you busy tomorrow?’ I asked trying to be cool about it.
‘Nope, well I don’t think so anyway, it might depend on whether there’s a comet coming to earth or something’ that sounded like a yes to me
‘How about we meet at the clock tower at about 7:00’ I pointed through some buildings to where we could see the clock tower, I thought somewhere like that would be easy to find. You looked where I was pointing
‘Oh my! is that the time?’ you sounded a bit panicked ‘I have to go, it’s really late’ I did think that it wasn’t that late but then realised that you probably didn’t work nights like me and that 2:00 is probably quite late to you. Then you took off.
‘Will you meet me?’ I asked worried suddenly that you might not want to come back to Gotham.
‘Oh yes, of course I will’ my heart jumped ‘7:00 in the evening, right?’ then jumped again and I nodded. You flew a little further up and then asked
‘Er..... What direction is Metropolis?’
Thankfully years in the GCPD had given me excellent directional skills and I pointed ‘It’s in that direction’ I said
Then you dazzled me again with that smile ‘Thanks, see you tomorrow’ you said and waved.
I waved back and watched you as you flew away, wondering if the last 10 minutes had been a dream. I couldn’t believe that I had a date with Supergirl, then realised it probably wasn’t a date, but what if it was? I panicked slightly, but then remembered how sweet you were and I knew nothing could go wrong.

I hadn’t been on the planet long and I really wanted to look around and see why Clark thought it was so good. But there were places he told me I shouldn’t go on my own, Gotham was one of them.
I don’t know why he was being so big brother about it, or should that be big cousin? Well, anyway he doesn’t have to be like that, I mean I’m not a child and my parents sent me to earth to look after him! And I travelled like, thousands of miles in a spaceship to get here AND survived it crash-landing
But anyway, I had just stopped a plane crashing into Ottawa, which was a nice place, superman let me do it because he was saving Metropolis from something again, so he said I could take care of the plane.

I had to think about it for a bit because Clark had said that it was full of scary people and monsters and stuff, but I had always wondered if he was just saying that so I wouldn’t go.

‘Yes I can, I’m Supergirl, I have x-ray vision’ you say innocently, then you put your hands of your hips like superman does on the front of the Daily Planet and then to my surprise and awe you stuck your chest out. I stared, I admit, but what was I meant to do? Then I wondered what Superman’s reaction would be to me staring at Supergirl’s boobs. But you standing there like that was pretty cute.
I laughed ‘yeah, I noticed’
‘Oh’ you said a little crestfallen
‘So....’ I had to think of something to say so you wouldn’t leave too soon ‘What are you doing in Gotham?’ It was a little strange to have a Super here ‘Is there some kind of crisis or...?’ If there was something major I could help with, that would have been pretty good too.

‘Good, that’s good’ I was glad he hadn’t hurt you, but I wanted to get you to stick around or at least come back so I could see you again. ‘And you know Gotham can be nice, we have nice parks, in the daylight, and some nice buildings..’ oh, god what else is nice in Gotham, I had to make it sound nice ‘and... er...and a lovely glass house and museums and an amusement park, too’ that didn’t really sound that good ‘Perhaps I could show you around some time?’ I couldn’t believe I’d said that
‘Really?’ you asked excited ‘you’d show me round? That would be great, I don’t know that many people here yet, so I’d like that’ you smiled that smile again and I’m so glad that I did ask.
Then you looked a little worried again ‘Will you have to wear the mask though? I think it’s kind of... scary’ you looked guilty, as if Supergirl shouldn’t say things like that
‘er...well...’ what do I say? I didn’t know you well enough, or at all really, to meet you without my mask on.. then you interrupted my thoughts
‘I’ve already seen your face, so you don’t have to hide it.....and you shouldn’t hide it’ I think you may have blushed
‘I don’t have to wear it, I suppose... it depends on where we go and when...’ if I take you to dinner I wouldn’t wear it, I thought.
‘Cool, I’d much rather look at your face than your mask’ you smiled again and I couldn’t help but laugh, this could be the best night of my life.
‘Soo, are you busy tomorrow?’ I asked trying to be cool about it.
‘Nope, well I don’t think so anyway, it might depend on whether there’s a comet coming to earth or something’ that sounded like a yes to me
‘How about we meet at the clock tower at about 7:00’ I pointed through some buildings to where we could see the clock tower, I thought somewhere like that would be easy to find. You looked where I was pointing
‘Oh my! is that the time?’ you sounded a bit panicked ‘I have to go, it’s really late’ I did think that it wasn’t that late but then realised that you probably didn’t work nights like me and that 2:00 is probably quite late to you. Then you took off.
‘Will you meet me?’ I asked worried suddenly that you might not want to come back to Gotham.
‘Oh yes, of course I will’ my heart jumped ‘7:00 in the evening, right?’ then jumped again and I nodded. You flew a little further up and then asked
‘Er..... What direction is Metropolis?’
Thankfully years in the GCPD had given me excellent directional skills and I pointed ‘It’s in that direction’ I said
Then you dazzled me again with that smile ‘Thanks, see you tomorrow’ you said and waved.
I waved back and watched you as you flew away, wondering if the last 10 minutes had been a dream. I couldn’t believe that I had a date with Supergirl, then realised it probably wasn’t a date, but what if it was? I panicked slightly, but then remembered how sweet you were and I knew nothing could go wrong.
