Comics. This is a work of fan fiction: sexually explicit content for mature readers only. (All artwork credited, and permissions given to use.).<\/p><h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><u>Chapter 6: Not So High And Mighty.<\/u><\/h3><p>It was a bit more than an hour later, Superman came to. He ached all through himself, the effects of the Kryptonite laced air he had been unwittingly breathing, and Cat\u2019s injection that had knocked him out (along with the horrible heel of her spite)\u2026 severely compromising his invulnerability to pain and harm, and inhibiting the use of his impossible strength, otherworldly powers. He checked his watch, knowing he had to get going. The thieves with the secret information long gone, he needed to apprehend them quickly before they could discover the truth of their heist, and perhaps reveal their damaging contents.<\/p><p>A buzz from the GPS device having been left by his side stirred him into action. His head was in a veritable spin of pure grogginess, rarely ever before experienced, and his genitals ached horrifically. Luckily, his leather-lined protective thong, and his largely thick penis had taken most of Cat\u2019s spiked assault, sparing his testicles irreparable harm (if only momentarily), but the pain was still there. He soothed at himself with his hands, knowing he would soon be restored once he hit sunlight. But the idea that she would dare do such an evil thing did not sit well with him, and he regretted ever having touched her, or having shared the glory of his manhood with such an ungrateful, vindictive bitch. The copious seed she had elicited from him, quite a volume of it, he considered a tragic waste\u2026 she, no doubt, still gloating at his losses (meaningless to her, but to him part of his soul). And the revelation of his true being\u2014now, to become hers and Luthor\u2019s puppet?! <em>Utterly unreal!<\/em><\/p><p>Still woozy, he was anxious to get outside. He took Luthor\u2019s private elevator to the helipad, having noted the address given on the GPS, and launched himself skyward.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center;\">\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014-<\/p><p>Naturally his movements had been observed, and Luthor called his boys to alert them to prepare for his arrival. As instructed, they laid out the welcoming articles: the Ecstasy and Viagra tablets, a small <em>pink<\/em> aerosol of God-knows-what they were told to spray in his face once he was depowered before them (with the caution to <em>\u201cUse Very Sparingly\u201d)<\/em>\u2026 the notable greenish glowing handcuffs (still contained in a small lead container), a steel-linked throat chain, ankle-cuff restraints, and the two amulets they were to open and use as-of-the-now. (Not to mention Adam\u2019s own surprise for the Man of Steel: his accoutrements for the piercing and containment of those definitely, outrageously large nipples dangling from his equally overdeveloped pecs they\u2019d seen him sporting about in his home gym\u2014which he knew would likely drive the alien half crazy with pain and humiliation\u2014sealing their mastery over him, ever reminding him he was theirs, and Luthor\u2019s slave. All with Lex\u2019s approval, of course. What a coup!)<\/p><p>Stripping themselves quickly completely nude, they then doused each other with the strange adhering powder which was supposed to render their prey nearly senseless, rubbing it over their naked bodies with gusto. Instantly arousing each other, but they knew they had to curb those urges\u2014would soon be able to assault their visitor with them, instead \u2014and were warned not to allow the green powder to remain on their persons any longer than twenty to thirty minutes. Were to shower it off immediately once Superman was snared. Lex had been cryptic about what it was, and while a synthetic mineral, it was guaranteed to reduce the MOS\u2019s power down to next to nothing, and was only to be used judiciously. <em>Initially. And no longer<\/em>\u2014beyond the time needed to take him down: have him stripped, cuffed and bound, and prepped for whatever pleasures they wished. Once incapacitated he was theirs, and would be for an all-night session, as promised. Lex\u2019s gift to them for their help, plus the forty grand each.<\/p><p>Lex\u2019s prime motive was not their pleasure, but the filming of the forever lauded hero\u2019s degradation. Binding him to him forever. Once able to disarm him, coated in the green substance all over their bodies (but not their faces)\u2014they were to don some cloaking, long white robes, to initially deceive him, to get him \u201cin close\u201d enough to do so. Then, nudely <em>greet <\/em>him. And he would be had!<\/p><p>It took Superman less than 15 minutes to get there, but he circled the area warily. He was not about to be taken in by another \u201cinnocuous\u201d appearing trap. The address revealed a late-model 50\u2019s ranch-style structure in a moderately, but sparsely populated area; wide lots and lawns separated most of the buildings, which looked in the throes of some sort of urban renewal project, if not outright demolition. It was a one-story brick house, sturdy, but nothing other than plain, functional-appearing, though a nice late model black Porsche was parked in front. A dead giveaway something beyond normal was up.<\/p><p>His powers relatively restored, except for a mild headache, tenderness in his privates, he scanned through the building to see if any debilitating obstacles might be found. No obvious chunks of Kryptonite showed up in his perception\u2026 though he could determine two rather very well-built young men, from the breadth of their shoulders, albeit strangely \u201cfuzzy-looking,\u201d dressed in some full-length terry cloth robes, and relaxing on a couch watching tv. Why they were <em>fuzzy<\/em>, he couldn\u2019t understand, chalking it up to some hangover impairment of his previous ordeal, and dismissed it as needing more time to recover from his recent injection. He flexed his biceps tightly, to reassure himself he could still feel his strength, and the size of his arms more than soothed him. Good to go, he assumed. Proud he had such magnificent guns. And more strength in them than any ten Mr. Olympias could dream of.<\/p><p>Not realizing the light synthetic Kryptonite he was unable to detect was any threat, and he was blundering headlong into a well-set trap worse than he could imagine. Once inside, he would never be able to get out, unless assisted. Nor would he ever be able to procure the disc he sought. His fate was sealed.<\/p><p>Rather than make a bold, demanding entrance, he cleverly pounded hard and heavily on the front door with enough to force to alarm any occupants, shouting: \u201cPolice! Open up!\u201d knowing they would both rise to cautiously address the problem, gathering any weapons available\u2014while he himself would quickly take himself to the rear, and enter through the back way. Perhaps the rear entrance would be unlocked, or he\u2019d just tear through whatever and surprise them. His plan worked.<\/p><p>But only then as he quietly entered through the back, and the two robed men rose hastily from the couch, and turned in his direction\u2026 his fine red cape swirled dramatically behind him, his shoulders proud wide, big chest thrust forwards\u2026 for about fifteen seconds\u2014while they equally all surveyed each other in some surprise. Nobody moved.<\/p><p>\u201cOh, my God! It\u2019s Superman!\u201d gasped Dennis aloud, pausing in mid-step.<\/p><p>\u201cImagine that!\u201d Adam added, halting beside him, mouth ajar.<\/p><p>The three of them taking another five seconds to absorb who and what they were seeing. And in a co-joined flash, broad smiling, the two men boldy stepping towards Superman, widely opened their robes, displaying themselves before the hero. Not only struck by the sheer beauty of their frontal nudity, but the <em>green<\/em> <em>covering them\u2014<\/em>with a startled gasp, the hero instinctively took a step back, throwing up one of his hands in front of him. <em>It was a trap!!<\/em><\/p><p>Too late. Their robes slipping off, fully green and nude before him.<\/p><p>The caped titan wavered dumbstruck, immediately curl-clutched at his waist, <em>\u201cUuhhhh!!\u201d<\/em> chin dropping forward\u2026 his breath caught in mid in-take, stomach swirling, head going funny\u2026 the two green figures moving closer. He managed to take about one more faltering step of staggered alarm, half sideways, half backwards, his mouth sagging open, eyes riveted towards them, before he dropped to his knees. <em>\u201cNa, na, nohhhh!! No! Please!\u201d <\/em><\/p><p>\u201cSuperman, himself!\u201d Adam said. \u201cOn his knees. And overwhelmed to see us.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cLooking a little peaked, too. Let\u2019s help him in,\u201d Dennis offered. \u201cLooks like he\u2019s had a hard trip. Worn out.\u201d<\/p><p>In pure panic\u2014he had been duped, thoroughly stunned\u2014the MOS gasped, tried to struggle, but they were on both sides of him now, got him to his feet, under his unwilling, massive arms, and steered him weakly into the living room. His legs leaden and not too workable. There, they let him go, and he dropped again to his knees in disarray. In shock. His senses aswirl, as much as his cape limply around him. They were indeed covered in Kryptonite; but a rare kind he hadn\u2019t been able to detect. His brain told him it was synthetic, but still as depowering to him as the real stuff. Nevertheless, fear rocketed through him. And he recognized them now as the figures he had seen in his very own mirror at home the weeks before\u2026 <em>enticingly taking him apart in a downward spiral, he could not comprehend\u2014perceiving it was happening, but not quite in what way. Nor even how! The whole craziness of it mind-boggling. They had stepped out of his private dream into an unshakeable reality. <\/em><\/p><p>He knew now they had been awaiting his arrival. And he knew only one person could have orchestrated this: Lex Luthor. <em>But for what\u2014why? <\/em>It could not possibly bode well.<\/p><p>His groaning was indistinct, and involuntary. Their nearness hurting him.<\/p><p>He glanced up, and saw two handsome young men standing in the middle of the room, their naked muscular builds and endowments on a fair par, though not nearly as fine as his own\u2026 their bodies glazed in green dust.\u00a0He felt weaker almost instantly.\u00a0Not only did they pierce into him with their undeniable, remember-ably deep attractions from his home gym, but the factitious Kryptonite was also doing its damnedest.<\/p><p>They had watched his shape-powerful legs and torso buckle. Now, gazing in awe, not ever expecting to witness such a sight, the mighty caped Superman totally floundered before them. A ragged, ultra masculine mass on his knees, as if fighting to catch his breath, clear his head, one hand protectively up and over his brow, as if trying to hide his eyes or shield himself from them. Luthor had surely been right about \u201cthe green.\u201d<\/p><p>Moaning softly, disoriented\u2026 appearing as if actually afraid. Yet gathering the last of his reserves, the hero struggled to stand, as if seeking some sort of urgent escape, looking around wildly. They advanced closer, their naked bodies, chests forwards, genitals swaying provocatively, covered in Superman\u2019s death element. It was too much. The hero again doubled over, groaning, trying to wave them away, desperate with a flailing arm to prevent their advancement. They stood one on each side of the wrecked-leaning hero reeling on his knees\u2026 who was now worse than distressed. He, the \u2018Champion of the Earth\u2019\u2014suddenly downed, and nearly finished!! <em>It was so unreal. So impossible. Could not be!<\/em> Realizing it could only have been a pure set-up. No disc here. Only him, to be made captive\u2026 maybe murdered. Would they have mercy?<\/p><p>\u201cWhat\u2019s the matter, Superman?\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cI-I\u2026 am so\u2014so weak. Please, no. <em>Don\u2019t! Spare\u2014!<\/em> He-help\u2026 me.\u201d<\/p><p>Admitting it, a deep blow to his ego. Would they spare, or were they meant to kill him? His desperation, a pure panic overwhelming him\u2026 along with the debilitating destructive powder they wore. Corroding his mind, his very being. All of his fabled strength.<\/p><p>Yet \u201cthey\u201d were the keys to his freedom, or slavery. Or worse\u2014he was shaking.<\/p><p>\u201cI never thought I would hear such words.\u201d<\/p><p>The blond, more muscled and hung escort, Adam, draped himself over and onto the once mighty hero\u2019s back, smiling\u2026 half hugging him.\u00a0Who would have thought\u2014the great Superman, here and his, for the unalterable fucking. Playing with the cape fasteners at his neck, Adam nodded to Dennis, indicating he should get the pink aerosol: what he heard it might do\u2026. He stripped off and pulled away Superman\u2019s cape, leaving him in a mass of skin-tight, silky blue. It disturbed the MOS, but what could he do? His cape, a true symbol of his status and might. Shorn from him, more vulnerable than before.<\/p><p>The hero was near prone-crumpled to the ground under the nude stud\u2019s weight, his arms and legs frantically reaching, stretching out for safety, weakly trying to stave off the assault he sensed would soon occur.\u00a0The other \u201csuper-impostor,\u201d Dennis, from Luthor\u2019s videos stepped forward, one hand into his hair, and with the other slapped the hero\u2019s face with palm chops, back and forth. Just to be sure he was truly cowed, defeated. The hero mumbled a few <em>\u201cOh, oh, oh\u2019s!\u201d<\/em> at the assault, but could do nothing, Adam still clinging to his back.<\/p><p>What was left of his brain, the hero absorbed: these <em>were<\/em> surely the ones he had seen in his gym mirror back home! Somehow their presence had been designed, rigged, and engineered to get to him, arouse and tease him. How that had been possible, he didn\u2019t know\u2014leading him somehow into this now developing maelstrom of\u2014<\/p><p>A strange, sweetish-like spray hit his face, he coughed suddenly, almost sneezed, had to take in another deep breath, along with another squirt of it practically into his mouth. And in hardly five seconds, a wondrous surge of warmth seemed to penetrate into his brain. <em>Oh, my, this was\u2026 was so nice. So wonderful\u2026 so, so.<\/em> He couldn\u2019t describe it.<\/p><p>Yet tears stung the hero\u2019s eyes as his face was carelessly smacked. He tried to block the blows with his hands, but failed.\u00a0And while he was suddenly beginning to feel a bit very good all over, the slaps definitely, oddly hurt; his fabled invulnerabilities had been breached. He was now merely a pile of massively built muscle, with not even near the strength of someone built as well as he should be, or possess: fucking weak as a teeny girl. And ultra dizzy. The two naked green-coated studs roughly helped the hero to his feet, dragging him unsteadily over to a saddle brown leather sofa.\u00a0He urgently tried slagging his feet to stop them, but it was useless. Their young, superior power superseded any of his that was left. He moaned apprehensively, groaned in obvious wonderment, a still quickening panic rising within him.<\/p><p>Beautiful as they were, did they really mean to harm him, abuse him? Or\u2026?<\/p><p><em>Strangely, he was struck with an overwhelming desire to suck them both off\u2014before they knew what might be happening. Knowing if he had the strength to do so, he would have! Render them helpless, and escape!\u00a0Saving their lives, also, if he could. Taking them unconscious with him. He didn\u2019t want them to be imprisoned (or maybe even die\u2014if he had any inkling of what Luthor might have planned if they failed). Such beautiful young men. Maybe take them off to a \u201csafe-house\u201d of his own, the three of them\u2026 ever in rapturous congress with each other\u2026 whenever he could get away.<\/em><\/p><p>They dropped him heavily onto the couch. He looked up, and saw suddenly Adam, with a hand under his chin, gaze locked into his eyes, with a fist cocked back, ready to send it crashing into the hero\u2019s vulnerable face\u2026 when the cell phone began to buzz. Dennis strolled off and over to it, his naked maleness waggling hard between his less muscled, but tapered, smooth-shaved legs. The dulled hero\u2019s eyes followed his naked desirable form. Adam smiled, slackened his ready fist, and also stepped away and to the side\u2026 his gorgeous ass tightly curved and firm as he moved to hear. The hero himself suddenly more than aware he had a swelling, throbbing erection, yet hopelessly contained in his briefs\u2014woozy, disoriented as he was, trying to cope with everything at the same time. Sat back, oddly benumbed and quiet, adjusted his phallus unconsciously, which soon softened again to the side of his hip. Waiting. Calm.<\/p><p>Dennis looked at the phone and saw his benefactor\u2019s name displayed on the screen. He answered it.<\/p><p>\u201cSo how is our prey doing?\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cWeak as a kitten, Mr. Luthor.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cExcellent news. Feed him his <em>medication<\/em>, and go into the desk and pull out the device\u2026 to assuredly keep him weak, while you boys go and wash off the Kryptonite.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cCan\u2019t we have a little fun, first? We just gave him a spray or two.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cGo ahead and strip him. But no funny stuff! Get him cuffed right away! That will keep him completely corralled. Then, if you don\u2019t get cleaned up, you might kill him.\u00a0Which we definitely don\u2019t want!! <em>Or yourselves<\/em>, with that shit\u2014if it gets too well-absorbed into your skin!! Trust me, by the time you feed him his special pills and are cleaned up, he\u2019ll be much more receptive to any type of fun you want to have. Then another spray, and it will be \u201cOooo-la-la\u201d for all concerned.\u201d<\/p><p>The prospect intrigued Dennis, who opened the drawer of the desk before Lex issued his final order.

And with his <em>toys <\/em>so obviously bigger than your own. Great tits, too. Near big as Cat\u2019s. Though she said his nipples overly beat any woman\u2019s she\u2019s ever seen. Beyond cow-like.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cYow! Yes, sir! Can\u2019t wait. We\u2019ve sort of already seen a bit of those, the gym videos we did. Why Adam suggested we lock them in.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cCool! Once tit-locked\u2014he\u2019ll forever know who his master is. Dressed or undressed, at work or at play. I\u2019ll send a van around by nine in the morning to pick him up, for a more personal, finalized \u201cconference.\u201d Have him dressed and ready. And still cuffed.\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cFor sure, Mr. Luthor. Then what?\u201d<\/p><p>\u201cMy boys will instruct you after they arrive.
