Chapter 4: New Job

At an abandoned building in National City, we see a young violet hair man drawing weird symbols on the floor and with each complete symbol, the inside of the building started to transform while the outside hasn't changed at all but for some reason, most people started to avoid the building.

Once the young man was finished with the last symbol the inside of the building started to stabilize and what used to be a rundown interior of an apartment complex was now the interior of a high-end palace and while the outside of the building hasn't changed still looking like an abandoned building.

"Ha, finally done. I'm glad I found this abandoned building and no one will notice that I took it over and along with my enchantments, I can change it however I like. Now, it's time to see where I ended up and hopefully, I'm nowhere near any of the big guys."

As he said that the man walked out of his palace and into the streets he looks around the city and found where he was when he saw the CatCo skyscraper.

"Am I in the Arrowverse or the new 52?"

As he was standing in the building not noticing a beautiful short hair blond woman wearing a business suit, big thick sunglasses and holding a coffee in her hand walk up to him and tapped his shoulder.

Feeling his shoulder being tapped the man turns around to see a blond woman smiling at him.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

"Well hello, there handsome, what beings you to my building."

"Your building? Oh, are you Cat Grant then."

"The one and only. So what's brings you here?"

"Well, I got lost and look for the most iconic building in town to find my way back home. I was also looking for some work while on my walk."

"Oh, what kind of work are you looking for. Looking at your body maybe a model."

"No, I'm not that confident enough to be one and I was a librarian and an editor in the past so I thought of getting work at a book store or something."

"An editor, are you interested to work for me."

"Sure but I'm not that great."

"It's fine I have a good eye for people and if you don't work out no harm no foul. Come with me I'll show you around."

"Haha, thanks I guess."

After agreeing, Cat walked forward while our mc followed behind her. While they are she talks about his duties as an editor and other stuff about her company. They keep on walking until they reach the top floor entering a big office.

"Now before I send you off to HR at the lower levels of the building I need to do a formal interview. Please sit down and we will start shortly."

Pointing to a chair in front of her desk she motions the MC to sit down. After seeing the hands signs the MC sat down quietly looking at Cat doing some paperwork until she was done.

"Okay, first I want to know your name, age and where you came from."

"My name is Kronos Weismann, I lived in Colma, California until now and I'm forever 24."

"Haha, we are the same age then. Are you living in National City right now."

"Yes, I just got a place and it's half an hour walk from here."

"Where do you see yourself in the next 5 to 15 years."

"Hopefully living a good life and having a well-paying job."

"Okay, now that the easy questions are done let's move on to the hard ones. As you may know, National City has superheroes and supervillains running around the place and my building somehow gets in there crossfire when a big fight happens. What will you do in those times?"

"I will drop everything and evacuate with everyone else."

"Okay, what will you do if you see someone having trouble during those disasters."

"I would do my best to help anyone in need."

"Are you saying that to sound good or do you really mean it."

"I mean it, I wouldn't let anyone die a pointless death if I can."

"Okay, that's all I needed to know go down to HR and come back for your first assessment."

After being told what to do he left for HR. While he was gone a new blonde hair girl ran in and panting hard.

"I'm sorry for being late Ms. Cat."

"It's fine Linda you did have that test today but please be more self-aware when you run into a place you're panning like a dog."

"Sorry, and thanks."

"Okay, now sit down a new worker will come in and he will be your editor."

"My editor?"

"Yes, you're interning to be a journalist here and as such, I need you to get experience and to do that you need a story, an editor, and a timeline."

"Really, thank you, Ms. Cat!"

"Don't thank me just yet if you can't give me good results you'll go back to do donut and coffee runs."

"Yes, I understand."

"Good now let's wait for your editor so I can give you your assignments."

Linda knowing what to do sat down quickly and quietly to wait. It didn't take long as a man with violet hair and blue eyes walked in and when Cat saw the man walked in smiled before opening her mouth to speak.

"Welcome back Mr.Weismann let me introduce you to an aspiring journalist and intern Linda Lee. And Linda this here is our new hired editor Kronos Weismann he will be your editor for now on or until you are put back doing donut runs."

"Well hello, Ms. Lee I look forward to working with you and you can call me Kronos."

"Likewise and call me Linda."

"Well now that the introductions are out of the way, let me tell you about your first story. Linda, I need you to find out what the new fads in your school are and it's affecting their college lives. Kronos, I need you to hound her like a dog until she can send me a half-decent report. You two have until the end of this month to hand over the report to me. You're dismissed."
