CANE

The first time he opened his eyes he can only see some silhouettes from the translucent green water.

The tubes going in and out from his body replacing all the blood from his body with that green liquid.

The pain that feels like peeling and repairing his skin flesh and skin again and again and again.

The frustration of not being able to clearly see much rather speak or yell in pain.

The fiery rage that was eating his consciousness and turning him in some kind of monster.

But in all this agony and chaos there was one image that was clear in his mind, an image of the most beautiful thing that he has ever seen, not by its appearance but her heart.

An image of a woman smiling at him, giggling in a fashion that gives him relief and warmth in this cold and painful environment.

The only thing that makes him think that he is not a monster, but a human.

Suddenly, a shock came and he went again in the disarray of unconsciousness and pain.

"Luthor, if you continued this then he will die one day or he will become a monster and will kill us all."

A seductive voice came in the big lab from a curvy girl in a white lab coat.

The man standing just in front of the green camber in which Cane was unconscious, smirked and didn't reply for some time.

"One day, very soon now, you're going to die, Superman. You're going to be destroyed. And you'll know who's doing it. Everyone in Metropolis will know. But no one will ever be able to prove it. I'll not be arrested, Superman. Not ever again. Remember, Superman, you're a dead man. It's just a question of how soon!"

"Double his doses Lana, I want him as soon as possible, I can't wait any longer."

Luthor said and turned to leave the lab.

"Lana thought for some time then gave the order to increase the doses to a bald old scientist at the corner of the giant machine."

The gushing voice of his blood woke him again and he saw the girl Lana in the lab coat this time very clearly, he can feel his senses increasing with every breath he took from his mask.

There were anger and power started to form within his veins his skin was completely green by now, but it was the first time he can feel the liquid around him.
