Chapter 22 - 22 Superboy and Miss Martian (2/2)

Miss Martian pointed to a hammer and a bell at the top of a ten meter post and gestured for Superboy to give the game a go.

The half-Kryptonian smiled at the Martian and wielded the hammer with enough force to send the small projectile flying upwards towards the bell. The force the clone generated was enough to send bell ringing loudly enough for a few people to turn around and see where the loud sound came from, several teenagers gesturing at the young handsome man, asking if they've seen him around before.

A pretty looking girl with long blonde hair walked up to Conner and smiled at him, her age matching his own from a physical standpoint.

”Hey, haven't seen you here around before. Are you new in Queens?”.

Conner and M'gann looked at the newcomer who was obviously interested in the former, causing the latter to frown as she held the large bear Conner won from this stall.

She wrapped her hand around Superboy's once more and glared at the pretty blonde in front of her.

”We, are not from around here. Just visiting New York for the day”.

The girl obviously recognized the tone at which M'gann was speaking to her, but just swept her hair past her ear and looked at the young Kryptonian with an unhidden dėsɨrė in her eyes.

”Me and my friends were just about to go to a party nearby. If you two want to come, than your more than welcome to.... that is.... if your not scared”.

Conner sent a glance to M'gann who had an angry look on her face and tried to lower the tension in the air.

”This party, it will have a lot of different people yes? From all across New York?”.

The pretty blonde nodded and smiled gently at Conner, who was unaware of the intent behind her gaze.

”Yeah, everyone will be there. Who knows, maybe you'll meet someone you're looking for?”.

The blonde brought Superboy and Miss Martian over to her own group of friends who were waiting just outside the park for her. The girls all looked at Conner with a subtle appreciation in their eyes, and all the guys looked at M'gann with raised eyebrows and not so subtle glances.

The pretty blonde winked at Superboy, much to the ire of Miss Martian.

”This'll be the biggest party of your life. Anyone whose anyone is going to be there. And its at some rich guys penthouse in the middle of Manhattan. You two can come, but you can't let anyone else come, alright?”.

The pair nodded.

The distance between them and their target slowly shortened.
