Chloe had spent a lot of time back home in Metropolis avoiding thinking about Jimmy’s death. She’d thrown herself into the Watchtower project and focused on her friends. The last bit of manipulation she’d planned out had been a roaring success. Ollie was cleaned up and back in the green suit. Thanks to her. She’d been feeling pretty good about herself, at least until she was alone and thoughts of Jimmy flooded back in. That night she’d been given an offer that would definitely take her mind off of being a young widow. Chloe hadn’t hesitated. It meant leaving everything and everyone she knew, but all of that just reminded her of everything she’d lost. She couldn’t say no.

Now she found herself on a tropical island with only the smallest amount of technology. The temptation to take it apart to see how it worked and maybe make it function in different and better ways was great, but it was the only communication she had with the other people she’d been told would be here. Her fingers were already itching for a laptop! But the promise of a new adventure was enough of a distraction. For now.

She’d talked with a couple of people and got directions to the main camp. The waterfall she’d been told about had been a momentary distraction. Chloe had never seen any place like this before! It was so beautiful. She wanted to explore, learn what else the island had, but good sense kept her moving after a brief pause to admire the scenery. Finally she reached the camp. A sudden bout of nerves had her bite her lip and hang back for a moment. There were more people than she thought there’d be. She told herself she was being ridiculous and forced herself forward with something of a shy smile on her face.
