Avengers: Man of Steel (Male Superman Reader x MCU) (Earth-199999)

Chapter 70 (Superman and Wanda S1)

(Y/N) and Wanda return to the farm and just sit in the car and talk.

(Y/N): All my memories, my childhood, my parents... they're all here. Why would my mom want me to come home just to sell the farm?

Wanda: I don't think she wanted you to sell it. I think she wanted you to save it.

(Y/N): How? We're not exactly flush with cash, especially after me getting fired. I don't want to bother Johnathan with this.

Wanda: I don't know yet, but those reverse mortgages weren't because the bank was feeling generous. We may have super powers, me Telekinesis, you have Super Strength and Super hearing, but I have also super smell, and those loans don't smell right.

The two stay silent for a while until (Y/N) stops the silence.

(Y/N): I do have super smell, by the way. I just don't use it very often, you know? Not with two teenagers in the house. Kind of gross.

Wanda: Two very upset teenagers.

Wanda and (Y/N) walks out of the car and walk toward their kids.

Riley: So that's why? That's why you never wanted us in the barn? Because you keep a frickin alien ship in there?

(Y/N): Look, I can explain.

Riley: Yeah, can you? Can you explain how we fell 30 feet and nothing happened.

Jenna: Just let him explain.

Riley: All you said is that we got lucky, but that was a lie, wasn't it?

(Y/N): Yes. Yes, OK? It was a lie. Look, that ship brought me to Earth. I landed here in Smallville, right there in those cornfields over there. I was sent here when my planet, Krypton, was destroyed.

Jenna: Krypton.

(Y/N): Yes. And because I wasn't from here, I had certain Powers. Your grandparents, they took me in. They raised me. Taught me how to control my abilities, how to blend in, until the day I was ready to leave and become who I was sent here to be.

Jenna: You're saying you're Superman?

Riley: No, I've seen Superman before. We've seen him. Next thing you'll tell us, Mom is Scarlet Witch.

(Y/N) takes off his glasses and passes them to Wanda and walks over to the car and picks it up as if it weighed a feather, shocking Jenna and Riley. He then flies in the air looking at his children.

Wanda: When I found out who your father was, I didn't understand either.

Wanda then shows the two her powers as they both look at each other. (Y/N) floats down to the ground and puts down the car.

Riley: I understand. I understand all the excuses. All the times you both were gone. You lied to us. You both did.

Wanda: We were saving lives, Riley.

Riley: That doesn't make it less true. You both lied to protect each others secrets. All the things I've been feeling. You made me think I was crazy. They put me on pills.

Wanda: Your mental health has nothing to do with who we are.

Riley: How do you know that? I'm half human, half whatever the hell he is!

(Y/N): Do not yell at your mother. OK? This is my fault. I'm the one who didn't want you to know.

Jenna: Why?

(Y/N): Because I knew what kind of burden it would be if you both had my powers. Or worse, if one of you had them and the other one didn't.

Riley: You think she's the reason we survived yesterday.

Jenna: What are you talking about?

Riley: Go on, Dad. Go tell Supergirl here why she's really so perfect.

Wanda: We thought your athletic talents to get into the cheerleaders this early, could be latent abilities starting to emerge and then yesterday...

(Y/N): The only way that both of you survived that accident is for at least one of you to be like me.

Riley: Wouldn't have it any other way would you, Dad?

Riley begins to walk away.

(Y/N): Riley.

Riley: Don't try and talk to me, all right? You may have been sent here to be some Hero, but you sure as hell weren't sent here to be a father.

(Y/N) was about to follow Riley but Jenna stopped him.

Jenna: Just leave us alone.

Both teenagers walk away from their parents, angry.
