The Fall The sound of the bubbling Lazarus Pit filtered through the air as the woman standing on the edge, ready to use it."Make sure you restrain him when he comes out as the side effects will have him temporarily insane," said the woman."Yeah, yeah," said a gruff, gravely voice.In a flash of light, the Lazarus Pit did its job. Soon, a serpentine-like figure jumped out of the pit and was about to attack the woman until he was restrained by a large blob-like mass."Keep him restrained until he calms down," said the woman as she watched the crazed man try to escape.A few hours passed before the serpentine-like man came back to sanity."Hey!
Tell me about it - Chap 19 Bruce, who till then fixed his gaze on Diana, turned around on swiftly on his chair and keyed in something into the computer."Amelia Smith is in Coma. She had received third degree burns from an accident...on the same day Lisa was murdered...I mean, found dead," he reported."That is not a coincidence!" Diana remarked."I see!" Bruce nodded."And Lisa died saving her!" Superman exclaimed."May be a more subtle reason," Bruce remarked, turning to Diana. He was slowly getting used to her being Diana and not Lisa. Lisa, in his mind, was fading away. He told himself that Bruce Wyane in him was dying out again. And it was necessary."Lisa c
Tell me about it - Chap 18 She paused. Her hands clasped involuntarily and moved to her quivering lips. She closed her eyes and let out successive sharp but deep breaths. Superman naturally felt the necessity to comfort her, but Bruce had his hand in his grip. Not that it was enough to restrain him, though he admitted that kind of grip on a normal man's hand would crack the bones, but he subscribed to the feeling that Bruce had a genuine reason to do so. He looked at him, and Bruce's face showed no sign of emotion other than his usual frown. The impact of the story on him so far could not be read from that expression. But he was obviously waiting for her to carry on, f
Tell me about it - Chap 16 "What do you mean, decoy?" Superman pressed.Bruce darted his eyes at Diana, who was still framing her explanation. Superman looked at her, concerned.Diana pursed her lips. "All right! I'll tell you what this is all about, and then you decide if I was right or not. And as for Bruce's allegation, it's false. I was never going to let him come to harm, whatsoever.""You mean the attacks on him! You knew..." Dick's voice trailed off."They were not intended to be on Bruce. It was only accidental that Bruce was in the scene, and in a way, acted as a road block for the plan of the perpetrators." Diana stated, her voice expressionless. It was a
Tell me about it - Chap 17 "An Amazon, yes!" she said solemnly."And why was she undercover? Who was she spying on?" Bruce questioned, his voice masking his enthusiasm."Whom do you suppose?" she raised her eye brows at him, and then blinked her eyes."Who?" Superman frowned."Her!" Bruce raising his eye brows."Damn it! She was sent to spy on you?" Dick spurted."But she doesn't look like an Amazon!" Bruce pointed at the screen which still showed a passport sized picture of the real Lisa Prince.Diana groaned impatiently. "If you go on interrupting me like this, I can never complete what I have to complete. Now, no one will speak till I finish!" Her voice showe
