Season 5 episode 22 : Reassurance
Chapter 1
Clark was walking down the stairs after getting out of the shower. Today was going to be a very special day for him. Or his worst. He has decide to tell Lana all about him. Now that Chloe has known for about a year, and Pete’s back, he figures that it is only right to tell Lana.
“Morning, mom,” he said as he walked into the kitchen.
“Morning honey, how are you,” she asked him. Martha was a lot happier knowing that Clark has 2 good friends that have kept his secret, even when Pete was tortured. She knew Clark was a lot happier too. He even was nicer to Lois, and thought of her as a true friend.

“Lois up yet,” Clark asked his mom. “I think she went to bed after waiting to get into the shower,” she said. “Didn’t you hear her yelling to get out,” Martha asked him with a smile on her face. “Yeah, but I thought she wanted to rush me,” Clark said joking. “Well, I should start on my chores a little early so I can go out tonight,” Clark told his mom as he leaned and gave her a hug. “Have something big planned,” she asked him. “I’m going to tell Lana, know matter what happens. I hope she takes it as well as Chloe and Pete have,” he said as he super-sped through the door. Martha had a smile on her face, but it quickly went to a look of worry. What if she freaks out and never trusts him? What if she goes to Lex and asks if he knows about the secret too? All these questions ran through Martha’s head as Lois walked down the stairs. “Mrs. Kent, are you okay,” Lois asked her as she grabbed the coffe pot and started to pour it into a cup. “Yeah, I’m just worried about Clark, he’s not my little boy anymore,” she said to Lois, not wanting to spill anything to her. “Trust me, Mrs. Kent, he’s not so little, and he’ll be fine,” she said to her, trying to be reassuring. “Do you need me to work at the Talon, today,” Lois asked while putting 2 pieces of toast in the toaster. “Yes, and me and Jonathan are going out tonight to visit my father in Metropolis,” Martha said to her. It was only a few months ago that her father called her up and wanted to make amends. Jonathan was of course skeptical, but she reassured him. The two of them were actually planning on going fishing together.

Clark started to grab the hay stacks and through them in the truck. “Morning, son,” Jonathan said to Clark. “Starting a little early, huh Clark,” he said to him, struggling to grab 2 bales of hay. “Well, I’m supposed to meet Lana at Crater Lake today, and hope that all goes well,” he said to his father a little worried. “Now, look son, whatever happens, whatever Lana decides to do, you have to respect that,” Jonathan said to his son to reassure him. “Lana’s parents did die in the first meteor shower, but that was not your fault. But do not get mad at her if she gets mad at first or wants a little space.”
“I know dad, I just want her to know, it’s not fair that I told Chloe and Pete and not her,” Clark said to his father a little concerned. “Son, you didn’t have a choice not to tell them. You would have lost Pete as a friend, and Chloe saw you use your abilities without you knowing it.” “But you have decided to tell Lana out of your own free will, and that son takes courage,” he told his son. “Thanks dad,” Clark said to him. Clark finished his chores in a couple of hours, and walked back inside. “Hi Lois,” Clark said to her as she was walking towards the door. “Now you say hi to me, not when I need to get in the shower, not when I ‘m trying to sleep and you and Lana are watching movies all night keeping me up,” Lois said to him sternly.
“Nice to see you to Lois, are you on you’re way out,” he asked her politely not even trying to get back at her. “Why are you being so nice, Smallville, are you on drugs,” Lois asked him, not trying to hard to hold back a smile. “Well, I’m in a good mood, what’s wrong with that,” Clark asked her.
“Well, I don’t have time to talk, I’m late,” Lois said rudely to him. Lois walked out of the door and walked to her car.

“Getting ready for your big night, Clark,” a female voice said behind him. “Chloe, how did you know,” he asked her a little puzzled. “ Pete told me, a few hours ago.” “I just wanted to wish you luck, and give you this,” she handed him something square that wrapped nicely. “It’s your birthday present, a little early,” she said to him. “Can I open it right now, or should I wait,” Clark asked her, not wanting to wait. “Sure, go ahead,” Chloe said to him smiling. Clark walked to the kitchen table and started to unwrap it. It was a picture of him, Lana, Chloe and Pete. Lois had taken the picture. It said on the bottom of the frame, “Friends forever, go through everything.”
“What do you think,’ Chloe asked him. “I love it, it’s great, thank you,” he said to her giving her a hug. Just then Lana walked in the door and saw the two of them hugging.

Chapter 2
“Lana, you’re early,” Clark said to her. “Chloe gave me an early birthday present, it’s the four of us, well five if you count Lois taking the picture,” Clark said to her, giving her a kiss on the cheek. “I made copies Lana, I just wanted to give this one to Clark first,” Chloe said to her.
“That was nice of you Chloe, “Lana said to Chloe smiling.
Chloe could feel the tension and awkwardness in the air.
Well, I should get going, I have to sit at the Talon and make fun of Lois trying to be a waitress,” Chloe said starting to laugh a little. “Bye Chloe,” Lana said to her. “See you later Chloe,” Clark said to her. “Well, we’re a little early for lunch, what do you wanna do,” Clark asked Lana, because he hadn’t thought that far ahead yet. “I was thinking, we could have a picnic instead,” Lana suggested. “Are you sure, because the farm is only so big, I’m not sure if we have enough room,” Clark said to her as she started to giggle. She loved his dumb little jokes, even though she was usually the only one that got them. “I’ll tell you what, I’ll buy a few more acres if there isn’t enough room,” Clark said to her again, this time he was laughing at his own joke. “Stop before you embarrass yourself,” Lana said to him, standing on her toes to give him a kiss. “Are you saying I’m not funny, because I am one of the funniest guys you’ll ever meet,” Clark said to her.
“I only laugh at your jokes because nobody else does,” Lana said to Clark trying to hold back a smile. “I’m not funny, I’ll show you,” Clark said to her.
Just then he started to poke his fingers into her sides. “Clark, don’t I’m really ticklish,” Lana said to him trying to fend him off. “I don’t think you’re ticklish, but I’ll let ya know if I find out,” he said starting to tickle her everywhere he could. “Can you stop laughing, I’m trying to concentrate,” Clark said to her as she was laughing uncontrollably. “I’ll drop kick you if you don’t stop,” Lana said to him as her face was starting to turn red. “Ok, I think you were right, you are ticklish,” Clark said to her as he stopped tickling her. He reached out his hand to help her up. “Don’t do that Clark,” Lana said to him as she got up and gave a playful slap to his chest. “I’m sorry, I couldn’t resist,” Clark said giving her another little poke to her side.
“Well, we should get to the movie if we want to get good seats,” Clark said to her looking at his watch. “Should we take my truck or yours,” Clark asked her. “We can take mine, and you drive,” Lana said to Clark.

At the Talon, Lois was over her head with serving customers. “Why do I get myself into these kinds of situations,” Lois asked out loud. “Because you are a better journalist than a waitress,” Chloe said as she walked behind her.
“You know, I have taken in thought about what you and Clark have been telling me over the last 2 years,” Lois said to Chloe as she took the food from the platter she had in one hand on a table. “What’s that Lois,” Chloe asked her. “Journalism, I think for some reason, it’s in my blood,’ Lois said to her. “Like it’s my calling or---,” Lois couldn’t think of the word.
“Destiny,” Chloe said, interrupting her. “Yeah, that’s it,” Lois said as she filled up a couple of coffees. “Well, I’m on my way to pick up Pete, we’re supposed to drive to Metropolis and watch the Sharks.” “So, you’re boyfriend is taking you to a football game on your second official date,” Lois said to her sarcastically. “It’s not the most romantic thing, but he’s not a fish either,” Chloe retorted back to her. “You know what,” Lois stopped after hearing a rude customer. “Hey candy pants, I need some more coffee, you and your girlfriend can talk about fashion on your own time,” the customer said to her rudely. “Excuse me, she’s my cousin, and you could be a little more polite,” Lois said starting to raise her voice. “Can I have one of those cards to fill out a complaint, because I don’t like your sassy little attitude,” the rude customer said to her. “You’ll wanna file a lawsuit soon if you don’t shut up,” Lois said to him, this time yelling at him. Everyone in the Talon heard this and stared at Lois. “Lois, calm down,” Chloe said to her, rubbing her back to calm her down. “I’m sorry sir, I’ll get right on the refill,” she said to him, holding back her anger. “And the complaint card too,” he said to her laughing. “Lois stopped, closed her eyes and took a deep breathe. “Goooozzz, frabaa,” she said quietly to herself.

In the Luthor mansion, Lex was going through some files on his computer and noticed something odd. “How did he get this information,”Lex said out loud. “That son of a ---.” “Lex, how are you son,” Lionel said to him as he walked into his office. “How did you get control of Luthorcorp dad, I made it so you could only get back the company if I die and have no heirs,” Lex said to him as he stood up and walked to the scotch and poured himself a glass. “It wasn’t hard Lex, the board heard my side of the story and took mine over yours,” Lionel said as he walked to the scotch and poured himself a glass too. “So, you’re fully in charge of Luthorcorp again, what am I supposed to do,” Lex asked him sitting down again. “Well, son, you could always start up a charity and I’ll let you live in the mansion,” Lionel said to him with a smirk on his face. “I won’t let you take Luhtorcorp from me dad, you had your chance and you blew it,” Lex said as he finished what was left in his cup. “What are you going to do Lex, kill me,” Lionel said starting to laugh as he raised his glass to his lips. Lex stood there for a little bit, thinking about what his father said. “You wouldn’t kill your own father, would you Lex,” Lionel asked in a more serious tone and getting frightened.
“Why, father, have you given me a reason for me to kill you,” Lex said to him with a grin on his face. “Son, you’re talking nonsense, over the last year and a half all I’ve done is tried to be the father you that you should have,” Lionel said putting a hand on Lex’s shoulder. Lex shrugged it off, and turned his back on him. “You mean someone that actually loved their son, instead of training him to be just like him.” “Lex, I know we had our differences in the past, but that is the past son,” Lionel said to him with a tear running down his cheek. “Dad, you did create the son you always wanted, I am just like you, maybe even better,” Lex said with an evil smile on his face. “Son, I have changed for the better, and the more I watch you grow, the more you become the monster I was for over thirty years, and I don’t want you to be him,” Lionel said with a worried look and feeling. “Dad, it’s time I became who I’m supposed to be, and not run from my destiny,” Lex told his dad. “Now I think you should leave, I had a good day until I saw you,”Lex said as his father had an angry and hurt look on his face. “Good-bye, son,” Lionel said to his son.

Chapter 3

Clark parked the truck and walked to Lana’s door to open it for her. “Thank you young man,” Lana said to him with a british accent. “You’re welcome my lady,” Clark said to her as he kissed her hand softly. The two of them walked to the ticket booth and purchased their tickets. Should we have asked Chloe and Pete to come with us,” Lana asked Clark. “I think they want to be left alone for now, besides, I just want to be with you now,” Clark said to her as he dropped his head down to give Lana a kiss. Clark and Lana were kissing so long in line that someone behind them perked up. “Can I go ahead of you two, or can you wait to get in the theatre?” the woman asked them with a look of disgust. “Should we go in, or are you getting popcorn and snacks,” Lana asked him.
“I’ll meet you in there, I’m going to get some popcorn,” Clark said to her a bit mysteriously.
Lana knew something wasn’t right, but decide to let it go for now.
Clark didn’t buy the popcorn right away. While nobody was looking, he super speeded to the caves and pushed three buttons on the wall. The three colors were glowing red, yellow and blue, something Clark was use to now.
He walked into where the stones were a year ago, and put his hand in the middle of the table. He disappeared in a bright white light.

At the Kent farm, Lois was on her cell phone and talking in front of Martha and Jonathan as they were ready to watch a movie in the living room. Jonathan and Martha looked at each other and back at Lois. “If Clark and Lana weren’t at the movies, I would say we should go see one, it’s a little crowded in here,” Jonathan said to Martha as she leaned her head on his shoulder. “We could go to Metropolis and see what movies are playing at MetroTheatre,” Martha said to Jonathan as he started to rub her arm softly. “Then again, I could go for a massage,” Martha said to him. “Boy, when was the last time I rubbed your feet, Martha,” Jonathan said to her as he lifted her feet and put them in her lap. “I meant a real massage Jonathan,” Martha said to him playfully. “Don’t make me tickle you Martha,” Jonathan said tickling her little toes. “I’m sorry, you give great massages dear,” she said giving him a kiss.
“I’m sorry to interrupt, but the mechanic still hasn’t fixed my car, so could I grab the truck to drive to Chloe’s,”? Lois asked them, basically barging into their alone time. “Sure, if you gas it up and bring it back in one piece,” Jonathan said to her. “One piece, that could be a little hard,” she said to him as a joke. “Very funny, Lo,” he said to her trying not to laugh. “Clark told you I hate being called that name except by the general didn’t he,” she asked him. “No, Clark would never do such a thing,” he said back to her. “Okay, well I should get going, Chloe says it’s real important to come over,” Lois said to them, trying to cover something up. “Have fun,” Martha said to her.
“Thanks for letting me borrow the truck,” Lois said to the two of them.

Lex was in his study by the fireplace and throwing miscellaneous papers into the fire. “ A little hot for a fire, don’t you think Lex,” a female voice said to him. “Rachel, I completely forgot about our date,” Lex said to her standing up and giving her a kiss. “It’s ok Lex, I know you’re a busy man and we still have time right now if you want to do something,” Rachel said to him walking to the liquor cabinet and grabbed a bottle of scotch, since there wasn’t any on the shelf. “I forgot to replace the other one, my mind is all over the place,” Lex said to her pouring himself a glass. “Did you have a bad day sweetie,”? She asked him sitting on one of the couches by the fire. “My dad got control of Luthorcorp, and I don’t know if I can get it back,” Lex told her. “You must be exhausted baby, let me help you relax,” she said to him putting her hand on his back. “What do you have in mind,”? Lex asked her with a smile, knowing what was next. “You shouldn’t let daddy control you like that, after all you are a big boy and stand up to him,” she said to him while rubbing her hands on his stomach, slowing moving down. “You think I can’t take care of myself, I’m Lex Luthor, who the hell are you to challenge me,”? Lex asked her, raising his voice and getting up from the couch. “Baby, all I meant was to fight back, I didn’t mean anything else,” Rachel said to him, using a voice you would use to talk to babies. “What’s your plan, ask my dad if I can have my company back, and if he refuses tell him to joust with me, and whoever wins gets the company,”? Lex asks her, acting a little crazy. “Maybe not jousting, but an actual fight,” Rachel said.
She was not a very smart person. Lex only saw her as eye candy and someone he can trust, she wouldn’t tell anything of the business deals he makes. “When I met you, you were on the streets of Metropolis, begging people for food and shelter,” Lex said to her. “I brought you into my home and gave you a life,” Lex said to her, pouring another glass of scotch.
“A life that you didn’t have to work for, a life that was given to you, and all I got is lousy sex and you telling me I’m afraid of my father,” Lex was now shouting at her. “You can be a real jerk, you know that Lex,”? Rachel said to him starting to cry. Just then Lex must have lost it, because he turned around to look there, and had a look like he wanted to kill her. He backhanded her face and she went sprawling down to the floor. “Get up you pathetic little hoar,” Lex said walking to her. “Don’t hurt me Lex, please,” she said begging him and crying more. “Don’t hurt you she says,” “Nobody can you hear you Rachel, I can do whatever the hell I want to, I’m a Luthor,” he said to her as he picked her up roughly by her arm. He threw her against the wall and her head started to bleed. He now was beating the living daylights out of her. In the top of his office, someone was watching all of this and was filming it. “I have the proof to bring him down and get rich,” he said quietly to himself.

Chapter 4

“Jor-El, what’s going on,” Clark asked as he put a blue crystal in the power cell. “Invalid crystal,” Jor-el said to him. Clark put in a yellow crystal, but Jor-El once again said wrong crystal. Clark put in a red crystal, but nothing happened. He decided to try something else. He put all three in, along with a black crystal. Jor-el’s voice and the hologram of his head appeared before him. “Kal-El, my son, you have yet to fulfill your true destiny,” Jor-El told him. “I choose my own destiny, not yours, not krypton, not anybody’s but mine, do you hear me,” Clark yelled at him. For awhile there was no sound.
“Kal-El, you have misinterpreted the messages I have sent you, that is why you do not understand,” Jor-El said to him sternly. Clark thought about his for awhile. On this third planet, Sol, you will be god among men. God is not a conqueror, people look up to him, as a hero, or savior. “Why was I sent here, father,” Clark said to him, now accepting him as his father. “Son, I can not tell you that, you must make the choice on your own,” Jor-El said to him. “You know the history of our people, you know that I and your mother loved each other, not like other kryptonians,” Jor-El said to Clark.
“Kal-El my son, you are earth’s last hope against a monster that will destroy you and everyone you love,” he said to his son. “I tried to stop Krypton from being destroyed, but it is he who destroyed Krypton, and now he comes after you,” Jor-El said to him. Just then, Lara appeared before Clark, next to her husband. “Kal-El, you have the greatest parents we could have wanted for you, and what happened to them is not our fault, it is Braniac’s fault,” Lara said to her son. “He helped numerous Kryptonians escape, but they made a deal with him,” Lara said with concern. “What is the deal, mother,” Clark said to her. “They have to help him take over earth, in exchange for their lives,” she said to him. “But, there are some that will challenge him, and that my son is what you must do, protect earth,” she told him. “But to do that my son, you must be able to fly,” Jor-El said to his son. “I have tried for the last year and a half, and I can’t,” Clark told him. “You have mastered all of your other powers, but not your last one,” Jor-El said to him. “I will teach you, son,” he said to him, while Clark was engulfed in three colors around him, red, yellow, and blue. When the lights were gone surrounding him, Clark floated to the door that led to the caves.

Chloe and Pete were at Pete’s dad’s watching a movie when Chloe got a call on her cell phone. “Hello,” she asked picking up her phone. “Hey Chloe, have you heard from Clark at all,” Lana asked her worried. “No, I haven’t, I’ve been here with Pete the whole time,” Chloe told her. “Is everything ok,” Chloe asked her. “He left before the movie started, and I was waiting for a half an hour, then I called his cell phone and he didn’t pick up,” she said to Chloe. “I called the Kent’s, but forgot they are in Metropolis visiting Martha’s dad,” Lana said to her. “I haven’t heard from him, and if I do, I’ll let you know, ok,” Chloe said to her, being confident that she or Pete will here from Clark. “Ok, bye,” Lana said hanging up her cell phone. “Pete, do you think Clark’s ok,” Chloe said to him worried. “I’m sure he is, he always turns out find for the most part,” Pete said to her, rubbing her back a bit and kissing her on the cheek. “Maybe we should go to the caves,” Chloe said to him, standing up. “Why are you always so worried about Clark, he’s fine Chloe, he’s probably just trying to think of how he will tell Lana about him,” Pete said, getting a little jealous. “I’m going to the caves, and if you are a friend of Clark’s, then you’ll join me,” Chloe said to him sternly.
“Chloe,” Pete said to her running to catch up to her.

“Do you have the video,” a man asked another man. “Yes, we have all the proof now that we need to put Lex Luthor in jail, and take over Luthorcorp,” the younger man said. “Lucas, he is your brother, are you sure you want to do this,” the older man said to him. “My brother and father never cared about me, they both used me to get back at each other,” Lucas said to him.
I will take over Luthorcorp after the sudden and tragic deaths of my father and brother as they dueled it out, and both didn’t survive,” Lucas said with the kind of smirk Lionel gives when he’s angry. “Who should I send it to first,” the older man said asking Lucas. “Perry, Perry White,” he said with confidence. “He tried to bring down my father, and lost his job, why not return the favor tenfold,” Lucas said. “How do you know Perry will risk his life and job again, he’s back with his wife Alice,” the older man said. “Chris, trust me, he’ll do this no matter what the cost, he’s still stupid as he was 20 years ago,” Lucas said to Chris. “I’ll send the video to Mr. White immediately,” Chris told Lucas. “Good,” Lucas said sitting down about to open a bottle of beer.

“So Jonathan, how’s the farm doing,” Martha’s father asked him.
“Well, sir, after the twenty-thousand you gave us, we are no longer in debt,” Jonathan said to him sitting down after shaking his father in-laws hand.
“We even had enough left to go on vacation this summer, while Clark and his friends work the farm,” Jonathan told him. “How is Clark, has he been doing ok, with, his secrets,” Martha’s father said quietly. “He’s been doing fine, every year he seems to accept them as part of himself better than he used to,” Jonathan said to him. “He is doing so well the past year, he’s doing his chores faster, putting out fires with his Super breathe, and lifting the tractor even better than he used to,” Martha said to her father. “He seems to be getting stronger with all of his powers, he can now hear from the farm to Metropolis very clearly,” Martha added in. “That’s great news, and even without his powers, he still managed to get us to talk again,” Martha’s father said. “That is very true,” Jonathan said picking up his menu.

“The ship is ready, Mr. Fine,” a female voice said to him. “Good Aethyr, once we can find the Kryptonian Fortress, we can contact the others and find out who is on our side, and who is against us,” Professor Fine said to her. “Milton, Kal-El should be about 19 years old, and his original ship crashed in Smallville,” Nam-Ek said to him. “This I know already, and I have my suspicions of who he is,” Milton said to them. “I looked up all the adoption records after the meteor shower, and I have a list of about 23 people who were adopted within a few weeks after the shower,” Milton said to them. “I want you find Kal-El, no matter what the cost is, find him and do not fail this time,” Milton said to them. “There are 14 males on the list, so you should be able to find him quickly.” “We’ll get on it right away,” Nam-Ek said as he and Aethyr super speeded out of the hangar and jumped off the cliff, only to fly up a second later. “Now Kal-El will pay for the sins of his father, and I can then unleash my greatest weapon,” Milton said turning around to a casket like box. He opened it, and a man in a mirror shaped object was looking at him. “Braniac, I am ready to face Kal-El,” the man said to him. “Zod, you must save your strength, Kal-El will soon be caught and be brought here for you to fight,” Milton said to the general. “He will bow down to me, or die by defying me,” Zod said to him. “In good time, in good time,” Braniac said to Zod. “And then we can find your followers, and your betrayers,” Milton said. “The last 13 Kryptonian sons and daughters will serve me to rule earth, or die defying me,” Zod said to Braniac. “That was not our deal Zod, the deal was you get to kill Kal-El, while I take over, and what’s left of your pathetic species can rule a few countries,” Braniac said to the general. “I’ve been in here for nearly twenty years, my mind is slipping, forgive me,” Zod said to Braniac. “Your time will come, as will mine,” Braniac said as he closed the lid.

Chapter 5

Chloe and Pete walked to Chloe’s car as Pete’s dad walked out of the door.
“Pete, where are you going,” Pete’s dad said to him. “We’re going to the Kent’s and see if Clark is alright,” Pete said to his dad as he buckled his seatbelt. “Say hi to Jonathan for me,” his dad said to him as he waved them good-bye. “Sure thing pops,” Pete said as Chloe backed her car out of the driveway. “Pete, do you think he’s in the fortress,” Chloe asked him.
“Maybe, but what would he be doing there,”? Pete asked her a little bit confused. “A few weeks ago, he and I were in the caves and he got a headache, and complained that his head was hurting.” Chloe said to him. “Where was I,” Pete asked her. “You were in Wichita still,” Chloe said to him. “I love it when you’re onto something, Chlo,” Pete said to her with a smile. “That’s the last time you call me Chlo, or you’ll be in a lot of pain, got it,” Chloe said to him jokingly. “Sorry, but I know it makes you smile,” Pete said to her. “Well I’ve never been happier than when I’m with you,” Chloe said to him smiling as he grabbed her free hand and kissed it softly.

Rachel was driving down the road when she turned at a rundown warehouse.
“What’s the password candy pants,” a man behind the door asked her, looking her up and down. “Dunlovy 456,” she said to him, looking around her with a worried expression on her face as rained was pouring down. “Hurry up, it’s colder than hell out here,” Rachel said to the man. “Let her in Tommy,” Lucas said as he was watching the security camera. “Rachel, you look terrible,” Lucas said to her as he walked over to her. “I missed you, baby,” Rachel said to him, giving him a firm kiss on the mouth. “Did I do alright tonight, Lucas,” Rachel asked him, moving her hand down his shirt. “Yes you did, you did very good,” Lucas said to her and moving his hands up her shirt. “Ehh emm,” Chris said to the both of them. “Continue you’re business later, we have work to do,” he said to them as they let go of each other. “Perry White has denied our offer, but I don’t think we should let him go, he’s know too much,” Chris said. “I think we should have him killed,” Tommy said, interrupting them. “Tommy, calm down, we don’t need to be that drastic, I only want Lex and Lionel to pay with their lives, Perry doesn’t need to suffer,” Lucas said to them. “I guess so, he’s not a real threat, he’s not even a real reporter anymore,” Chris said to them. “He could have been, but it’s his choice, and he is a good man,” Lucas said to them, grabbing Rachel’s hand and walking her to his bedroom. “This will be awhile, go have a few drinks,” Lucas said as he closed the door.

Perry was in his car, driving to a motel. “I’d like a room please,” he asked the hotel clerk. “Room 4 is available,” the clerk said as he scanned Perry’s credit card and gave him the key. “Thank you,” Perry said as he walked to the motel room. Perry lit up a cigar as he sat down on the bed and pulled out his cell phone. “Mr. Luthor, I have some information for you, that may be useful to you,” Perry said as he looked outside looking for people watching him. “What kind of information,” the man on the other line said to him. “I know there is someone spying on you,” Perry said to him. “Come in my office in the morning, and make sure you do not talk to my dad,” Lex said to him. “Will do, Lex,” Perry said as he hung up and layed down on his bed.

Clark walked out of the caves and superspeeded home. “Mom, dad, Lois, is anyone home,?” Clark said without a response. “I’m here, Clark, now can you tell me what is going on,?” Lana said to him. “Lana, I need to talk to my parents, but first I must tell you something,” Clark said to her, putting his hand on her shoulder. “Is everything ok, Clark,?” Lana asked him, sitting down on the couch. “I need to find my parents, they could be in danger,” Clark said to her. “Clark, tell me what happened,” Lana said to him reaching up and putting her hands on his face so he would look at her. “Lana, I will tell you everything, but know I do not have the time,”Clark told her. “I have waited for three years for you to tell me, now please let me in,” Lana said to him beginning to cry. “Lana, don’t cry, you just have to wait a little longer,” Clark said as he gave her a kiss on the mouth. “I have to go, I’ll talk to you tomorrow,” Clark said as he superspeeded out of the house. Lana had a look of surprise on her face, almost like Chloe had when she saw Clark grab a car in midaur and superspeed away. “Lana, where’s Clark,” Chloe asked her as she and Pete walked in the door. “Lana, what’s wrong,” Chloe said to her, putting her hands on her shoulders and motioned to sit on the couch. “He ran so…fast, like a flash,” Lana said as if she were traumatized. “Did he tell you anything Lana,” Pete asked her. Chloe gave him a look like he should shut up before he says anything else. “What do you mean, tell me anything, he just ran off like a bullet,” Lana yelled back at him. “You guys know something don’t you,” Lana said to the both of them. Pete and Chloe looked at each other, and then at the ground. “So everybody know and not me,” Lana said very hurt. “Lana, he didn’t have a choice, and he didn’t want to lose you,” Chloe said to her, reaching out her hands to give her a hug. “Don’t touch me, all of you have been lying to me since the beginning,” Lana said pushing Chloe away from her. “Lana, he will explain everything to you, but he needs a little more time.” Pete said to her. “He loves you very much, and has wanted to tell you for a long time,” Chloe said to her. “Do you know where he went,” Pete asked her. “He said his parents might be in danger, and then he left the room in a swoosh,” Lana said to him. “His parents are in Metropolis, we can look for him there,” Chloe said to the both of them. “Then let’s go, he might need our help,” Pete said putting a hand on each of their shoulders. “I’m going with you,” Lana said to them. Chloe and Pete looked at each other hesitantly. They both knew she should stay here, but they both felt bad and took her along. “Let’s go,” Pete said to the girls.

Clark supersped to the restaurant his parents said he would be at. “Mom, dad, are you alright,” Clark asked the both of them. “We’re fine son, what’s wrong,” Jonathan asked him. “We need to talk, but not here,” Clark said looking around nervously. “Let’s go then,” Jonathan said to him. “Dad, I’m sorry to cancel, but we’ll make it up to you,” Martha said to him giving him a hug and kissing him on his cheek. The three of them walked to Jonathan’s truck and started to drive off when suddenly the truck was hit by something massive. “What is god’s name was that,” Jonathan said as the truck stopped. Clark and Jonathan walked out of the truck and looked the huge dent in the front of the truck. “Looks like something really big hit it,” Jonathan said. “Or someone,” Clark replied to him. “What do you mean son,” Jonathan said turning around and looking at his son with confusion. But Clark was interrupted by a ring that came from Clark’s pocket. “Hello,” Clark answered. “Clark, we’re on our way to Metropolis,” Chloe said to him. “We,?” Clark said to her. “Pete and Lana are with us,” Chloe said to him, knowing that he would be a little upset by Lana tagging along. “Dad, Lana Pete and Chloe are on their way,” Clark said to him. “Chloe we’re on route 57, and the truck, well, stopped,” he told her not knowing what to say to her. “We’re pretty close,” Chloe said. “See you in a bit then,” Clark said as he hung up. “This day just keeps getting better and better,” Clark said aloud.
“Do you think we should call Lois and tell her to, go somewhere else,” Clark said to his parents. “Clark, now as much as you care for Lois, wouldn’t that be a little mean,” Martha said to him. “How are we going to explain everything with her there,” Clark protested. “We’ll figure that out later,” Jonathan said as he pulled the hood of the truck up above him. Fifteen minutes passed, and Clark saw Chloe’s car coming up the road. “Here comes the war,” Clark said with a worried look on his face.

Chapter 6

“Clark, what happened to the truck?” Chloe asked him as she stepped out of the car.
“We’re not sure, I think it was a deer,” Clark said to them. Chloe and Pete knew he was covering up something. Lana had a suspicious look on her face. “Clark, how did you run like that?” she said moving closer to him. Jonathan looked at Martha with a worried look on his face, and put his hand on hers, while she squeezed tightly. Pete and Chloe started to back up a little slowly. “Why don’t we talk in private,” Clark said to her. “Sure, but are we all going to fit in Chloe’s car?” Lana said to him, looking strangely at Chloe and Pete as they stopped backing up. “I can call Lois, and see if she can bring her truck,” Chloe said to them. “Isn’t she on a date with Dan?” Clark asked. “Yeah, but I don’t think she’ll mind,” Chloe said back to him. Chloe pulled out her phone and dialed Lois’ number. “Hello?” Lois asked as she answered her phone.
“Hey Lois, can you pick up the Kent’s on Route 57, they got hit by a deer, and the truck isn’t running,” “Ask her if she has jumper cables,” Pete said to Chloe. “Lois, do you have jumper cables?” Chloe asked her. “No, but I can pick up the Kent’s, I’m actually on my way to the Kent’s, Dan and I didn’t hit it off,” Lois said to her. “Ok, I’ll let them know,” Chloe said back. “She doesn’t have jumper cables, but she’ll pick up the three of you in a couple of minutes,” Chloe said to the Kent’s. “Thank you, Chloe,” Jonathan said to her. “Lana, I’ll talk to you when we get home,” Clark said to her as he leaned in to kiss her. “Bye,” she said to Clark.

Perry White opened the doors to Lex’s office. “Mr. White, thank you for coming by, what is it you need to tell me,” Lex asked him. “Are you sure you’re not being bugged,” Perry asked a little nervous. “Mr. White, I can assure you I’m not being bugged, now please tell me what is so urgent,” Lex said to him. “A guy that calls himself Julian L. contacted me yesterday and said that he has some proof on how I can get my job back at the Daily Planet, but with a cost,” Perry said to him.
“He says he has information to bring you down, along with your father,” Perry told him. In the back of his mind, Lex wondered who would use the alias who is his dead brother. “What kind of information,” Lex asked him. “He says he broke into the mansion and taped you beating a woman to death,” Perry said to him. “I did get into a fight with a woman the other day, but not killing her,” Lex said to him. “The guy said you killed a Samantha Tuly, a few weeks ago,” Perry said to him. Just then, one of Lex’s assistants came in the room. “Sir, you should turn on the news,” he said to him. Lex turned on his T.V. and turned on the news. “Today, the body of Samantha Tuly was discovered in the Metro Central Hotel in Metropolis,” the news anchor announced. “Perry, are you being truthful to me,” Lex asked him. “Yes, Lex, of course,” he told him. “The police are not sure who killed Samantha, but they are getting close,” the news anchor said. Police walked in the door and walked up to Lex. “Lex Luthor, you’re under arrest for the murder of Samantha Tuly, you have the right to remain silent,” the officer said to him putting the handcuffs on him.
“Perry, find out what happened, and do it soon,” Lex said as the officers took him away. Perry stood there stunned. He wasn’t sure who he should trust, Lex, or the guy known as Julian L. “And fine Clark, he’ll know what to do,” Lex said as he left the room.

Lois pulled over to where the Kent’s were, just as the tow truck came. “Sure, you waste my night for nothing,” Lois said to Clark when she walked up to him. “Lois, I’m not in the mood for your sarcasm,” Clark said to her with a stern voice. “Sorry, Smallville, I was making a joke,” she said putting her hand on his shoulder. “I didn’t mean to snap, I haven’t had a good day,” Clark said looking at her with an apologetic look on his face.
“It’s ok, but we should get home,” Lois said to him.
The four of them drove back to the Kent farm, and saw Chloe and Lana’s car in the driveway. “I’m sorry, but I can’t stay, I’m also visiting Lucy in Grandville tonight,” Lois said to them. “Say hi to Chloe for me,” she said as she backed up her truck. The three of them walked into the house and saw the three of them by the table in the kitchen. “Lana, can I talk to you,” Clark said to her as he approached her. “Yeah, you have a lot to explain,” she said to him. The two of them walked out of the house and walked toward the loft. “So Clark, what’s your secret,” Lana asked him. Clark stood up while she sat on the couch. “Lana, I’m not from around here,” he started. “I’m from a planet called Krypton, and it was destroyed nineteen years ago,” he said to her. “I came in a spaceship, that crashed here in Kansas, in 1989,” he said to her, now really worried. “The day of the meteor shower,” Lana said. “Yes, and the meteors are debris from Krypton,” he said to her. “I also have these abilities that I have to keep hidden,” Clark said to her. “I also am responsible for the deaths of your parents,” Clark said to her, with a tear coming from his left eye. “Clark, how could you keep this from me,” Lana asked him. “Because, Lana, I didn’t want you to hate me, and think of me as a freak,” he said to her.
“I don’t think you are a freak, I think you should have told me sooner,” she said to him with an angry and sad look on her face. Clark now had full blown tears running down his face. “Lana, I told Pete because I felt I had no choice, and a year later he was tortured to reveal my secret, and he didn’t,” Clark said to her. “It was when I first wanted to tell you, but I found out about what happened to Pete, and after I went to the airport, and saw you hugging Lex,” he told her. “Clark, I couldn’t say good-bye, Emily kidnapped me,” Lana said to him. “I know, and I was the one who rescued you,” he told her. “Lana, the reason why I didn’t tell you was because I didn’t want to put you in that position like I did to Pete,” he said to her. “And Chloe knows, too,” Clark said as he moved closer to Lana. “You told everyone except me,” Lana replied to him. “Chloe saw me catch a car in midair, when Alicia kidnapped her and set it up so she could expose me to the world,” Clark told her. “I was never sure if I could trust her, but I didn’t have a choice last summer, so I told her also,” he explained to her. “She has been a loyal friend to me, just like Pete was,” Clark said to her.
“Clark, I wish you told me sooner,” Lana said starting to cry. Pete and Chloe walked up the stairs to try and help Clark tell her. “So the two of you knew and didn’t tell me,” Lana said to them angrily. “Lana, it was Clark’s decision to tell you, not ours,” Chloe said to her. “You are the first person he willingly told his secret to, he was forced to tell us,” Pete said, trying to comfort her. “I don’t know if I can trust the three of you, what other secrets are you hiding from me,” Lana said now yelling at them. Lana did not understand why Clark didn’t tell her sooner.
She was also hurt that he told Chloe and Pete without telling her. Lana walked down the stairs of the loft crying her heart out. Clark started to walk to her, when he was stopped by Chloe. “Clark, you have to let her handle this on her own,” Chloe said to him. “Her parents died during the meteor shower, she has to accept it wasn’t your fault,” Chloe said putting a hand on his back. “You still have us, no matter what happens with Lana,” Pete told him. Clark sat down on his couch and put his hands over his eyes. “How can she forgive me, my heritage is the reason why her parents are dead, and the cause of all of the meteor freaks,” Clark said to them. “It’s not your fault, and if you say it again, I’m going to throw you into the wall in front of Pete,” Chloe said to him trying to cheer him up. Clark gave a small but noticeable smile. “I’d like to see you try little girl,” Clark said giving her a hug. “Did I say you could touch my girlfriend, don’t make me walk over there,” Pete said joining in on the fun. Clark laughed at this. Clark’s cell phone rang from his pocket. “Lex, what’s going on?” Clark asked as Lex was ranting frantically. “Clark, I’ve been arrested for murder, you have to help me, I’m innocent,” Lex said to him. “I’ll get to the bottom of this, I promise.” “What is it,” Pete asked him. “Lex has been arrested for murdering a prostitute,” Clark said to the both of them. “Clark, I’ll have my sources find everything they can,” Chloe said to him. “I have to go to the jail and get the whole story,” Clark said as he super sped out of the loft.

Chapter 7

Perry pulled up to the Kent farm in his mustang. Perry knocked on the front door when he heard two voices behind him. “Mr. White, what are you doing here,” Chloe asked him as she walked closer to him. “I’m looking for Clark, I’m sure you heard about Lex,” Perry said to them.
“He’s in jail for killing that woman,” Pete said before Chloe could say something. “He wasn’t convicted, but I’m not so sure he’s innocent either,” Chloe piped in. “Well, Lex asked me to find Clark and he said Clark could help him,” Perry told them. The door opened as the three of them were talking outside. “Can I help you,” Jonathan asked him, not recognizing him. “I don’t know if you remember me, Mr. Kent,” Perry said to him extending his hand out towards Jonathan. Jonathan shook his hand. “Come on in, Perry,” Jonathan said to him. “Mr. Kent, I’m here to talk to Clark, is he around,” Perry asked him.
“I thought he was with Chloe and Pete,” Jonathan said to him. “Mr. Kent, he said he had to go see Lex,” Chloe said to him, sitting next to Perry. “Well, then I guess I’ll have to talk to him there,” Perry said to the three of them. “Perry, why don’t you stay for a cup of coffee,” Martha said as she walked down the stairs to the kitchen. “I should be on my way, I’m afraid there may be others involved with the murder charge against Lex,” Perry said to him standing up and getting ready to leave. “What do you mean,” Chloe asked him. “Chloe, I don’t want to get anyone else involved, it could be dangerous,” Perry said to her walking towards the door. But that never stopped Chloe before. She knew there was something she had to do. If Perry was in danger, Clark could be too, and she had to help him. After Perry left, Chloe started to ask the Kent’s a few questions. “Mr. Kent, do you think someone is trying to frame Lex,” she asked him. “Chloe, we all know that Clark sees the good in people, but his judgment has been wrong before,” Jonathan said to her. “Well, we should get going, I have to work early tomorrow,” Pete said to Chloe as he nudged her arm. Chloe and Pete said good-bye to the Kent’s and walked to her car. “Chloe, can I drive?” Pete asked her. “If you promise to be careful with my baby,” Chloe said throwing him the keys. “I thought I was your baby,” Pete said to her with a smile. “Oh you did, huh,” Chloe said as she leaned to Pete and gave him a kiss.

Clark stopped running when he got to the jail. Clark walked to Lex’s jail cell. “Lex, Chloe and Pete told me what happened,” Clark said to him sitting down. “Clark, you have to believe me, I didn’t kill anyone,” Lex said to him. “Lex, I know you’re innocent, what can I do to help?” Clark asked him. “I’m being set up,” Lex told him. “Who would want to frame you,” Clark asked him. “I think it was my father,” Lex said to him. “He took control of Luthorcorp a few days ago, and I can’t get it back, at least not with this little problem,” Lex said with a laugh. Clark looked at him like he didn’t know who he was. “Lex, a woman is dead, and all you can do is laugh about it,” Clark said to him. “Not so loud Clark, they might actually think I did it,” Lex said trying to quiet Clark down. “You could care less about her, couldn’t you,” Clark said to him, looking at him like he was nothing.
“Clark, I was at a meeting when she was murdered,” Lex said to him.
But Clark was suspicious. Clark was about to say something when the news on the T.V. was turned up. “Good evening smallville, hear is the news tonight,” the newswoman announced. “A woman is found beaten and left for dead in the Kiwatchi caves,” the newswoman said. “Her name is Rachel Kolp, a woman that is said to have been seen at the Luthor mansion in Smallville late last night,” she reported. Lex knew who that was. He was now more scared than before. “Lex, do you know who she is?” Clark asked him.” No idea Clark, I’ve never heard of her,” Lex told him. Clark was now very suspicious of him. “Lex, I hope you’re telling me the truth,” Clark said to him. “Why would I lie to you, Clark?” Lex asked him. “I’ll see what I can dig up Lex, I’ll see you tomorrow,” Clark said as he walked out the doors of the jail. He then super sped home after looking around to see if anyone was around.

Clark walked in the house, and saw all the lights were out. He wanted to talk to his parents, but knew they were sleeping already. It would have to wait till tomorrow. He went to the loft, because he didn’t feel like sleeping on the couch again.That night he had a very intense dream. He had a dream that Braniac would discover his identity. “Kal-el of Krypton, you will bow before me, and you’re friends will do the same, or they will suffer the consequences,” Braniac said to Clark in his dream. “I’ll die before I let you control the ones I love, I will stop you,” Clark said to Braniac. Clark was screaming in his sleep.Lois had heard this and walked to the barn. “Clark, you’ll wake the dead,” Lois said but she didn’t get a response. Lois walked in and woke him up. But Clark was in a deep sleep, and didn’t realize what he was doing. He suddenly hit Lois’ arm and she flew against the wall. “Branaiaaaccc!” Clark yelled as he woke up from his nightmare. He looked to his side and saw Lois there. Jonathan and Martha walked in after hearing the screaming and looked down at Lois. “Clark, what happened?” Martha asked him as she bent down to see if Lois was alright. “She’s unconscious, but she should be ok,” Martha said looking at Jonathan, then at her son. “I was having a nightmare, and I thought she was Braniac,” Clark told them. Clark picked her up and took her to the house. “Son, who’s Braniac?” Jonathan said to his son. “He’s the one who was responsible for Krypton’s destruction,” Clark told him. “He is also here, on earth,” Clark explained to him. “How did he survive, when only you and the other two kryptonians survived?” Jonathan asked him. The two of them went back to the house to talk. “His spirit lived on, and took possession of a human on earth,” Clark said to him, trying to be clear as he could. “I also know how to fly,” Clark said to his father.
“Fly, how did you learn?” Jonathan asked him. “Jor-El taught me, he said I have to feel my body lift, and then all of a sudden I started to float,” Clark said to him.
Lois and Martha came downstairs when Clark and Jonathan were still talking. Lois looked at Clark a little scared. “You know smallville, you don’t have to throw me against the wall if you didn’t want me to wake you up,” Lois said to him as she walked to where they were. “Lois, I didn’t mean to hit you, I would never do that,” Clark said to her, feeling guilty about what happened to her. “How’s your arm?” Clark asked her. “It’ll be fine, but it felt like I was hit by a baseball hat,” Lois said rubbing her shoulder. “We’ll talk more tomorrow, ok son,” Jonathan said to him as he and Martha walked upstairs.
Lois was still rubbing her shoulder when Clark came behind her and started to rub her shoulder for her. “Let me help, it’s the least I could do,” Clark said as he gently rubbed her left shoulder. “That feels good smallville, do you do this for Lana,” Lois asked him. “I did, but we’re not talking right now,” Clark said to her. He just realized that he opened up to Lois. “I shouldn’t burden you with my problems,” Clark said to her. “It’s ok smallville, I’m not the rude, bossy girl that you know all the time,” Lois said with a smile. “Yeah, there is a nice side to you, once in a blue moon,” Clark said to her as he motioned for her to sit on the couch. “Could you rub my back, it hurts too,” Lois said to him. Clark knew she just wanted to use him while he was offering, but he let it slip under the circumstances. She laid down on the couch as Clark was rubbing her back. He then slid his fingers towards her sides when she jerked. “Ya know, I wouldn’t think someone as stuck up as you would be so ticklish,” Clark said to her. “Stop tickling me smallville or I’ll tell Lana,” Lois said as she tried to get his hands off her sides. “Well, I should get back to bed, I have to work at the Talon early,” Lois said as she got off the couch. “Sorry about your shoulder Lois,” Clark said taking another look at the bruise. “Stop worrying about me, and start worrying about a job,” she said to him. “Why do I need a job,” Clark asked her. “Because I’m suing you in the morning,” Lois said as she walked upstairs. Clark had a smile on his face as she walked upstairs and he went back to the loft. He knew he had to find who Braniac was and stop him. But who could he be? And what was with Lex? Was he telling the truth about Samantha Tuly? All these questions ran through CAlakr’s mind, until he thought of Lana. She was in a field, a field of flowers, and the wind was blowing through her hair. She was smiling, and it looked like she was ever happier. Then a man that looked like a shadow came up to her, grabbed her, and flew away. Clark could not fly to save her, and called out her name over and over again. Clark woke up again and knew what he had to do. He put on his red jacket, and looked in a toolbox for the key. He grabbed the key and super sped to the caves. He put the key in the keyhole and it glowed the famous red, blue and yellow colors. Clark walked to the side of the cave where the hidden room was. He called out Jor-El, and with that he was gone in a flash of light.

Chapter 8

“Kal-El, my son, what troubles you?” Jor-El asked him.
“I had a dream, more of a nightmare,” Clark said to his biological father.
“Son, what was it about?” Jor-El asked him. “Lana was in a field of flowers, and then she was taken by a shadow and they flew away, but I couldn’t fly to save them,” Clark said to him. “What does this mean, father?” Clark asked him. “It means, you cannot save everyone that you love and care about, and that you have to accept it,” Jor-El said to his son. “With all of your powers, you still cannot save everyone,” Jor-El said to Clark. “Are you telling me that I will lose Lana?” Clark asked him. “I cannot see her future,” Jor-El told him. “Why was I sent here, was I sent here to conquer?” Clark asked him. “You were sent to earth to protect them, they are a flawed race, and you must be their savior,” Jor-El told him.
“You have misinterpreted the message in your ship, and that is why your friends and family had to pay,” Jor-El said to him. Clark was now thinking about how much trouble he has caused by not listening to Jor-El. “My parent’s lost their baby because of me,” Clark said aloud, not thinking that Jor-El was listening. “Kal-El, your parents unborn child did not die because of you, you did what you thought was right,” Jor-El said to him. Clark could not believe that Jor-El was talking to him like this. “I didn’t cause the death of my sibling?” Clark asked. “Can you give them another child?” Clark asked his father. Jor-El was silent for awhile. “The ship had healing capabilities, but now that it is gone, I do not know if I can give them another,” Jor-El said to his son. “This fortress can bring me back to life, why not give my parents a baby?” Clark asked again.
“I do not know if it is possible, but I will try if you want me to,” Jor-El said to him. “But you must not worry about that right now, Braniac is close on your trail, you must find out who he is before he goes after your loved ones,” Jor-El said to him. “Son, you must destroy him, or he will take over Earth and mankind will suffer,” Jor-El told him. Clark now knew what his true destiny was. He was sent here to protect mankind. And that is what he will do. “Good luck son, I know you will make us proud,” Jor-El said to him.
“Kal-El, you have the best parents any parent could wish for their son, tell them I thank them with all my heart,” Lara said to her son.
“Lara, you’re here too,” Clark said with a puzzled look on his face. “Of course, as I said just before we sent you away, we will be with you for all the days of your life, make us proud, and make Krypton proud,” Lara said to her son as she faded away.
“I will, but I must go now,” Clark said as was about to take out the crystal from the platform. “Kal-El, Krypton lives through you, make us all proud,” Jor-El said to him as he faded away. With that, Clark walked to the door that led to the caves. As Clark emerged from the room inside the caves, the room closed behind him. He had a look on him of determination. He was ready to accept his destiny. “I am the last son of Krypton, and I will protect the ones I love and care about,” Clark said as he looked forward, and then sped off.

Clark super sped to the farm. “Mom, dad, are you okay?” Clark asked as he walked in the door. “Yes, son, we’re ok, did something happen,” Jonathan asked him. “Not yet, but I need to make sure you’re alright,” Clark said as he looked around the house. “You wanna tell us what’s going on, you look worried,” Martha asked him. “Is Lois here,” Clark asked them. “No, she got a call from Chloe and left about five minutes ago,” Jonathan said to him. “I went to the fortress, and I know why I was sent here,” Clark said to his parents as he motioned them to sit down. “I was sent here to protect earth from a being now known as Braniac, and he wants to take over mankind,” Clark started to explain. “I even talked to my birth mother, she told me to protect the ones I love and care about,” Clark said to them. “My parents are not the monsters I thought they were, they loved me, and wanted me to be a good person,” Clark said to his parents. “Lara even said she was glad I had parents like you, she said you were the best parents any parent could hope for their child,” Clark said to them. Jonathan was trying to hold back tears, while Martha was crying and leaned to Clark and gave him a hug. “And I thank them for giving us the greatest son a parent could hope for,” Martha said to him. “I must go, I need to stop Braniac before he gets too powerful,” Clark said as he stood up. Jonathan stood up too. “I have no doubt you will make us proud,” Jonathan said to him as he put his hand on his shoulder. Clark smiled, and after he said good-bye, he super-sped away. He was headed for Metropolis.

Chloe and Pete walked up to Lana’s dorm and Pete knocked on the door.
Lana opened the door, and asked what they wanted. “We want to make sure you’re ok Lana,” Chloe said to her with a bit of worry in her voice. “Can we come in,” Chloe asked her. “Sure,” Lana said to them. “Lana, I know you must feel that Clark betrayed you, and he should have been honest from the start, but he didn’t want to put you in that position like Pete was in,” Chloe said to her, trying to be reassuring. “Pete, how did you not let Clark’s secret slip out when you were tortured?” Lana asked him. “I thought of Clark, and he risks his life everyday to protect all of us, and people he has never met, and he would do the same for me, I would have died for him,” Pete said as a tear came from his eye. “Clark had every reason to tell you, and not to tell you,” Pete said to her. “You do deserve to know the truth, but Clark wasn’t sure how you would take it,” Pete said to her. “I don’t know if I can look at him the same again,” Lana said as she put her head against Chloe’s shoulder.
“Lana, we know this must be the hardest for you, because of what you have been through the last 17 years,” Chloe told her. “Clark has blamed himself for the death’s of your parent’s for so long, that’s why he didn’t tell you,” Pete said to her as he moved to Lana and put a hand on her back. “I don’t blame him for that, I don’t know if I can trust him, he is an alien,” Lana said as she looked up at Chloe. Just then someone knocked on Lana’s door.
“Maybe it’s Clark,” Chloe said as Lana walked up to the door and looked through the peep hole. “Who is it,” Lana asked, not recognizing who it was. “Is this Lana Lang,” the man from behind the door asked. “Who wants to know,” she asked him. “You have a package from a Milton Fine,” the man said to her. Lana opened the door as the person from behind the door kicked it open and sent Lana flying back. “So meet again,” the woman said to Lana. “Where is Kal-El, we cannot seem to find him,” Aethyr asked the trio. “Who’s Kal-El, Chloe do you know who this person is,” Pete said, knowing it would annoy the two Kryptonians. Aethyr grabbed Pete by the neck and threw him against a wall. “Pete!” Chloe said as she rushed to him. “He’s unconscious,” Chloe said reassured. “Aethyr, grab the girls, I’ll grab the boy,” Nam-Ek said to her. Aethyr hit Chloe in the head just hard enough to knock her out. Lana got up and attempted to do a kick to Aethyr when her foot was stopped in midair. “Little girl, you don’t have kryptonite with you, so why bother,” Nam-Ek said as he gripped tighter. “Don’t hurt her yet, she may be a valuable asset to Zod and Braniac,” Aethyr said to Nam-Ek. The two kryptonains picked everyone up and both of them used their superbreathe at Lana’s window and shattered it. Clark got to Lana’s apartment a few seconds after Nam-Ek and Aethyr flew out. “Lana, Lana,” Clark screamed out. “My dream is coming true, I must stop this from happening,” Clark said to himself. At that second he haerd a voice only he could hear. “Kal-El, you’re friends are being taken to my lair, I think you will find it very entertaining. If you wish to save them, I am in an underground bunker in Montana, come if you want,” Braniac said to him. “By the way, if you so choose to come, I will destroy you like I destroyed Jor-El and Lara, along with the rest of Krypton,” Branaic said to Clark.
Clark jumped out of Lana’s window and headed towards where Braniac told him to be.

Hey man, I'm checking out your story =D Can't say I read all of it tho, but I read the first two updates and its AWESOME! I'll finish the rest when Im done with my own update - a bunch of peopel are complaining about the lack of updates.

And dude, so far this seems as more or less a Clana ship. If I were you, I'd pick a ship and ask a mod to move this there, because very few people check this board for fics. This is a great story, and Im sure there are a lot of potential reading who simply dont know about it. I'll post a link to this story on the Clana Clubhouse thread, so some of my friends can come check this out too. Anyway, keep on writing and PPMS!

Thank you Ketchup, I wasn't sure it was a Clana story. But thanks 4 commenting. Maybe that's why not so many people have commented on it. Thanks again man.

I couln't think of where to put a bunker, so I thought of a place that has lots of land, and I didn't want it to be texas or something. That's why I put the lair in Montana. I should have chapter 9 by tonight, well it's morning 4 you guys. It's 11:06 here, and 5:06 in your time.

BTW, before I go ahead, what kind of powers does Braniac have, besides being really smart? I'm sure therwon't be a fight between him and Clark(cough) I just want to know for my own reasons.

well... I have this superman book that tells me the basics on the superman comics, it says that: "Brainiac has telepathic and psychokinetic powers that enable him to bend lesser beings to his will. His consciousness can link with virtually any computer system and pervert it's data to his evil needs":)

anyways....just read your story and there are SO MANY things happening at once! it's amazing!!! I really like it! great job!!! can't wait to see what happens next!!!PPMS!!!

Chapter 9 Part 1

Clark had a look of determination as he soared through the skies of Metropolis, looking down at its skyscrapers and residents. He didn’t care if anyone saw him, all he cared about was protecting his friends. He knew he had to stop Braniac, or at least try to. Clark flew north, and stopped in midair. He heard something familiar and distant. “Clark, help,” Chloe was saying. Clark could hear her screaming, but it didn’t seem close. “Chloe, Chloe where are you?” Clark asked aloud, thinking she might hear him. An old man with overalls and a shotgun in his hand approached him. “I don’t know who you are, but I want you off my property immediately,” the old man said as he spit on the ground. “I’m sorry, I’m lost, do you know where I am,” Clark asked him. “You’re in Red Forest, Wisconsin, now get the hell off my land,” he said as he pumped his shotgun. “I’m sorry to bother you, I’ll go now,” Clark said to him. Clark started to run towards the forest, but not at super speed. He looked back and saw the old man was gone. He then super sped into the forest when he realized nobody could see him. He then heard the screaming again, only this time it was Lana and Chloe. He listened to them scream, and could tell he was a lot closer than before. “We’re at 725 East Tamonte Boulevard. We’re underground Clark, I hope you can hear this,” Chloe said as she faded. Clark put his hands to his side and flew towards where he had heard Chloe and Lana screaming from.

Lex was sitting in the cafeteria, when he saw his father walk in. “Lex, you have a visitor,” the guard said to him. Lex walked towards the glass window. He looked on the other side as his father picked up his telephone. Lex picked his up too. “Lex, how are you son,” Lionel asked him. “How do you think I feel, I never hurt that woman, and you know it,” Lex said angrily. “I know son, and I am doing everything in my power to get you out,” Lionel said to him. “How can I trust you, you took away my company, and now you put me in jail,” Lex said to his father angrily. Lionel was very hurt by this. “Lex, look at my eyes, does it look like I would do that to you?” Lionel asked him. “I put you in jail, and I put you in Belle Reeve for awhile, you’re just trying to even out the score,” Lex said to him. “Lex, it was your brother Lucas who did this,” Lionel said to him. “What are you talking about,” Lex asked him. “After you stopped talking to him, he came to me,” Lionel said. “He helped me get Luthorcorp back by talking to the board and showing how incompetent you are in running a business.”
“So you and Lucas put me in here to get the company?” Lex asked. “No, he said that he would help me get it back, and I listened,” Lionel explained. “But after I got it back, he asked me to blackmail you, and I wouldn’t do that,” Lionel said to his son.
“He wanted me to favor him over you,” Lionel said. “I love you to much, and I’ll die before he ruins your life,” Lionel said to him. “Dad, I’m sorry for what I said, I didn’t mean it,” Lex said to him as he started to cry. “Son, take my hand,” Lionel said as he put his hand up to the glass. Lex lifted his hand and pressed it against the window. The two of them held their hands there for what seemed to be an eternity. A guard walked over to Lionel. “Time’s up,” the guard said to him. “Lex, I will find Lucas and we will destroy him together,” Lionel said as he stood up. “Dad, I love you,” Lex said to his father. Both knew that they could mend their relationship. Lex watched his father turn around and walk away. After he left the jail, Lionel pulled out his cell phone and pushed a few buttons. “Lucas, why are you doing this to Lex, he’s done nothing to you,” Lionel said to him. “You never loved me like you loved him, the three of us could have ruled the world dad, but you didn’t want me, you abandoned me,” Lucas said to him. “Lucas, of course I love you, but what you are doing to your brother is wrong,” Lionel said to him. “Lucas, I can get rid of you very fast if I wanted, but I want you to clear this up,” he said to his son. “Clean it up yourself if you can, I want Lex to suffer like I did,” Lucas said to his dad. “What did you tell him dad, did you tell him about you and Samantha, or did you leave that out,” Lucas said to him. “He doesn’t need to know, and he never will,” Lionel said to him. “Why don’t you tell him that you and Samantha have a child together, and that you needed the company to support your new child,” Lucas said to him. “Leave her out of this, I don’t want her hurt,” Lionel said to him angrily. “Dad, you have to choose, your daughter, or Lex, it’s that simple,” Lucas said to him. “Our deal was that I get the plant in Smallville and you can have the rest, but Lex has to go to jail,” he said to his father. “I love all my children, but I don’t want to hurt them anymore,” Lionel said as he started to cry again. “
“You don’t have a choice, you can have me and your daughter, or you can have Lex, what will it be,” Lucas asked him. “Either way, Lex will find out about the deal, and he will hate you forever, but I am willing to forgive you if you give me a chance.” “Lex is the only son I care about, and I’ll be damned if I let anything happen to him by a street punk who doesn’t know who he’s messing with.” Lionel hung up his phone.
“Lucas, are we going after her?” Rachel asked him. “Yes, I want to be the only heir to Lionel Luthor so I can have what I was denied,” Lucas said to her. “Now, go find where my father is hiding Lea Luthor,” he said to Rachel and everyone else in the room.
End of chapter 9 part 1

Chapter 9 Part 2
Chloe woke up as water hit her face. “Wake up you pathetic human,” Aethyr said to her. “I’m getting tired of listening to you, so you can go--,” Chloe was cut off by seeing Branaic walk over to Pete. “I know you are all hiding something about Kal-El, so tell me know and your lives will be spared,” Branaic said to the three of them. Pete spit in his face. “That was foolish, Nam-Ek, do it,” Braniac said as he turned around and motioned to him.
Nam-Ek walked over to Pete and twisted his arm until he broke it. “Ahhh, you son of a b---,” Pete tried to say as Nam-Ek squeezed his arm. Lana and Chloe could do nothing but watch their friend be tortured. “Stop it, you don’t have to do this,” Lana said to Nam-Ek. Nam-Ek stopped and looked at her. Pete, still in pain, looked at Lana and motioned her to stop. “He doesn’t know anything about this Kal-El, and neither do we,” Lana said to the three of them. “Really, well we’ll see about that,” Nam-Ek said as he walked over to Lana. He grabbed a power cable and turned on the power full blast. “Now, are you sure you know nothing?” he asked her. Lana looked at him, knowing what was about to happen. “No, ok,” Nam-Ek said as he hooked the cables to Lana and started the machine. Lana screamed in pain as the electricity ran through her body like a thousand knives stabbing her everywhere. Pete, exhausted and in excruciating pain, knocked over his chair and tried to slide to Lana. Aethyr walked to him and stepped on his arm. Pete was screaming at the top of his lungs, but he didn’t break. He had to be strong. He had to be strong for Clark, for Chloe, and for himself. He left Clark his junior year because he wasn’t strong enough, but he wasn’t about to give up. Nam-Ek stopped the electricity flow after a minute. “Why don’t you just tell us, and we’ll give you a quick and painless death?” Aethyr asked them. But none of them were ready to expose Clark’s secret. Braniac walked over to Chloe, and put his hands on her head. She tried to resist him, but with no luck. He had complete control over her thoughts. She was now ranting, like a crazy person. He then untied her and motioned for Nam-Ek to pick her up. Chloe was fighting as much as she could, but couldn’t break free. Nam-Ek strapped Chloe to a table, much like ones in a hospital. “Please don’t do this,” Chloe said crying as her craziness lost its effect and reality kicked in. Aethyr dug her nails into Chloe’s skin, and then poured alcohol on it. She started to dig her nails in her arms and on her legs. Chloe was in agonizing pain. Nam-Ek then picked up a piece of metal that looked kryptonian. He used his heat vision and heated it up. He then stuck it on Chloe’s feet after Aethyr took her socks and shoes off. Chloe wiggled her feet, but it didn’t help.
After a few minutes of pouring numerous chemicals onto Chloe’s skin and burning her feet, Nam-Ek and Aethyr stopped. The two kryptonains walked over to Lana after they unstrapped Chloe and let her fall to the ground. She hit the floor hard, and Braniac checked her pulse to see if she was alive. “She’s just unconscious,” he said to them. Nam-Ek untied Lana and took her to the same table and strapped her like they did with Chloe. But they used a different approach. “Who is Kal-El,” she asked Lana. “I don’t know who he is, please stop doing this to us,” Lana said crying as she closed her eyes, thinking it would help with the pain. “Don’t say we didn’t warn you,” Nam-Ek said to her as he took off Lana’s clothes like he had done to Chloe. Aethyr scratched Lana’s chest, and smiled when Lana screamed. Nam-Ek poured salt on her wound, and then then used his heat vision to scorch her left thigh. Lana could not believe how much pain she was in. She know knew why Clark did not tell her his secret before, and why he would tell anybody about it. Aethyr walked to Lana’s feet and stabbed her right foot with a kryptonain piece of metal. She then used her heat vision to scorch her foot. After a few minutes, Nam-Ek and Aethyr unstrapped Lana and pushed her off the table as if she was garbage. Pete knew what was coming next. As he looked at Lana and Chloe’s naked and helpless bodies, he knew he had to stick in there for a little longer. He was subjected to the same things Lana and Chloe were, but he got a worse punishment, they also burnt some of his delicate areas for more pain. He was burnt more than Lana and Chloe were, but he seemed to not feel the pain. This is for you Clark, I won’t leave you alone again, I will be the friend you deserve and need he thought to himself.
After he passed out from the pain, the two kryptonains and Branaic pushed him off the table and onto Lana and Chloe. A few minutes later, Chloe woke up to find herself on the same chair as before, tied up and blindfolded. Lana and Pete were tied up to, but they were unconscious. She looked at the kryptonains, knowing that they would start all over again if they knew she was awake. She heard a loud thump above her, and knew it was Clark. “Clark, we’re down here, help,” she yelled at the top of her lungs but was stopped when Aethyr super-sped to her and hit her across her face.
Clark started to smash at the ground like an animal, hoping he wasn’t too late. He was in tears thinking about what was happening to his friends. But he knew what he had to do. Aethyr looked up at the crumbling wall above her. “Kal-El.”

Chapter 10

“Braniac, get them out of here,” Nam-Ek said to him. “You’re giving me orders, if it wasn’t for me you would still be floating in space,” Braniac said to him angrily. “Shut up, both of you, he’s almost through,” Aethyr said as she stood prepared to fight. “Why don’t we leave them where they are, that way Kal-El will know exactly what he put his friends through,” Braniac said to the two of them. Branaic moved away in the shadows, knowing that he would need to use his weapon soon. He also knew that Kal-El could beat them, but he needed a little more time. He walked to a door, and pushed 3 buttons. He entered the tiny dark room, and looked around for a light switch. “Zod, are you ready to get your revenge against Kal-el, the son of Jor-El,” Branaic said to him. Branaic turned on the lights in the room, and looked at the shield shaped casket. He used his powers to unlock it, and looked upon a weak Zod. “A few more minutes Zod, and I will break you out so you can destroy the son of your enemy,” Branaiac said to him. Zod had a smile on his face. “The time has come to bring down the last member of the El house, and I will succeed in bringing him down,” Zod said to Branaic. Branaic walked to a corner in the room and opened a toolbox. There were needles, filled with green liquid in them. There was also a sharpened green rock, which he looked at and gave a smile. He opened the next drawer and picked up a silver crystal. He dropped the crystal on the ground, and it floated in the air, aiming itself towards Zod’s sphere. Zod closed his eyes as the crystal flew at him like a torpedo. The glass shattered all over the ground, and Zod, appeared out of thin air. Branaic walked over to him and gave him a blue suit. “Zod, you have to rest a little bit before you battle Kal-El,” Branaic said to him. But Zod didn’t care, all he wanted was to get his revenge. After he put the suit on, and looked at Branaic. “Are you ready,” Branaic asked him. “Almost, there’s one thing I need to take care of,”Zod said as he grabbed Branaic by the throat until he heard a snap in his neck. He looked down upon him, and didn’t have any kind of expression on his face.
“I thank you for getting me out of this hell whole, but I had no other choice but to kill you,” Zod said to him as he kicked his body to the corner. But Branaic wasn’t dead, and he opened the toolbox with his mind, and lifted a needle from the drawer. Zod became weak in the knees, and turned around to see Branaic holding a needle in his hand. He used his powers to throw the needle at him, but did not count on Zod’s reflexes to be that great.
Zod caught it with his hand, and threw to the other corner. He then super-sped at Branaic and started to choke him. “Zod, we can finish this later, let’s destroy Kal-El first,” Branaic said to him. “I don’t need your help, but I will not waste my time on you,” Zod said as he threw Braniac against the wall and hit him in the head to knock him out. He walked towards the door and pushed a few buttons, but didn’t know the access code. “I’ll do it my own way,” Zod said as he pulled the door from the wall and looked out to see an empty hallway. He couldn’t see where he should go next.

Clark, realizing that he needed to work faster, stood up and did a super spin into the ground. After a few seconds, he hit the bottom, and hard. He saw his friends, tied to chairs, all bloody, and knew something horrible had happened to them. He looked down for a second, about to cry, but looked up, knowing what he had to do. “I won’t let you hurt my friends again, and you’ll pay for what you did to them,” Clark said to Nam-Ek and Aethyr. “Nice of you to join us, Kal-El,” Aethyr said to him as she super-sped towards him. Clark was anticipating this, and grabbed her before she hit him and he threw her against the wall. “You know Kal, you have truly good friends, or the stupidest,” Nam-ek said as he used hit super breathe at him. Clark was fighting against the wind, when suddenly Aethyr grabbed his ankles and dropped him to the ground. She started to punch him in his face, and he flipped her over him. She super-sped towards Nam-Ek, who had stopped using his supers breathe. “He’s a lot stronger than before, and we need Zod,” Aethyr said to him. “Zod and Branaic are coming, and Kal-El cannot fight the four of us,” Nam-Ek said reassuring her. Nam-Ek super sped towards Clark, and picked him up over his head. He threw Clark against the wall. “Kal-El, we are just practice for you, the real fight is with Zod,” Nam-Ek said to him. “Zod is in the Phantom Zone, how would he have gotten out?” Clark asked him. “Branaic helped us, better known to you as Dr. Milton Fine,” Nam-Ek told him.

“Dr. Fine is dead, he blew up 3 months ago,” Clark said to him. “The body that was found was not his, it was a colleague of his,” Nam-Ek said to him. Aethyr walked to where Nam-Ek was. “We can destroy him,” Aethyr said to him. “How, he is too strong?” Nam-Ek asked. But when they looked to where Clark was, he was gone. “Where did he go,” Aethyr asked.
Clark super-sped around the room and body slammed Nam-Ek. He started to punch him wildly, with no intention of stopping. Aethyr walked over to Lana, and tied a power cord around her waist. Lana was still groggy, but coming to. She looked at Aethyr, her vision blurry, being in a dark room didn’t help. “Kal-El, let go of him or I’ll make popcorn out of your friend,” Aethyr said to him. Clark turned around, and when he did Nam-Ek shoved him far away from him. Nam-Ek ised his heat vision against Clark, who shot back at him with his own. Aethyr then used her super breathe towards Clark and the heat vison shot back into Clark’s eyes. “Ahhh,” Clark screamed as his eyes closed shut. Nam-Ek super sped towards Clark and rapidly hit his face and chest. Clark was bleeding, and Aethyr joined in on the action. Clark, almost blind, could not fend them off. But he was saved when Zod opened up the doors and looked at his deciples. “Stop this at once, I am the one who will get to kill Kal-El,” Zod said to them. Nam-Ek and Aethyr bowed to their master, and asked for their forgiveness. “You will be forgiven, when you do me a favor,” he told them. “What is it master,” Nam-Ek asked him. “There is a knife, made from fragments of your ship,” Zod told them. “Also, there is a stack of needles, they are harmful to us, but once they are covered with lead, they can’t harm us,” Zod said to them. “Branaic explained this to me a few weeks ago,” Zod said. “Now go get them,” Zod said to them. Both of them ran at super speed down the stairs. Clark’s vision now came back to him. “Kal-El, I will spare you if you follow me like Nam-Ek and Aethyr,” Zod said to him. “No, I will not follow you,” Clark said to him. “Then you will die, but not before you watch your friends die,” Zod said as he started to choke Chloe. Clark looked at his friend, and then super-sped at Zod. Zod caught him, and threw him against a wall, still holding on. He picked him up, and body slammed him. Clark used his heat vision to get an advantage. Zod screamed in pain as his eyes turned red and blood came from his eyes. Clark used his superbreathe and Zod flew backwards, blind and not able to fight back. Nam-Ek and Aethyr walked in and saw their master fly towards them. The three of them hit a wall, dropping most of the needles and the knife. Aethyr threw the krytonian knife at Clark, and he ran to the side and caught it, but not before Nam-Ek ran to him and tried to grab the knife from him. “You had a chance to live Kal-El, but you didn’t take it,” Nam-Ek said as he got on top of Clark. Clark tried to push the knife away from his chest, but it was getting closer. Aethyr and Zod, weakened by the kryptonite, put a blanket lined with lead on top of it. “Zod, my master, can you see,” Aethyr asked him. “Yes I can see, now let’s take care of Kal-El’s friends,” Zod said to her.
Pete started to get the ropes untied with a knife he had carried with him. He finally got himself free and crawled towards the blanket. He was very weak, and barely made his way to the blanket. “Come on Pete, you can do this,” Pete said aloud to himself as he stopped halfway to the blanket. He looked back at Chloe, and knew he had to make it. “I have to make, I will make it,” Pete said to himself as he started to crawl again. Clark was struggling against Nam-Ek as Aethyr started to punch and kick Clark. Aethyr grabbed the knife, and raised it, ready to stab Clark.

End of Chapter 10

Chapter 11

Clark was struggling to push off Aethyr and Nam-Ek. Zod super-sped towards Lana, and turned on the electricity. Lana screamed again as the surge of electricity hit her body. Zod turned a knob that increased the flow of electricity. “Clark, please, please, help me,” Lana cried as her body was jumping and flailing all around. She cried so much she knocked the chair over and hit the ground. Zod turned off the electricity. “Kal-El, you will pay for your father’s sins,” Zod said as he untied Lana’s ropes. He then looked over at Pete, who was by the blanket. He sped towards him, and picked him up by the back of his neck. Zod started to choke him, but dropped him back to the ground. He walked back to Lana. “I can sense you have a connection to her, Kal-El,” Zod said to him. The knife was an inch away from his chest. Zod started to put his hands on Lana’s breasts, and she tried to push him off but with no luck. Chloe looked at Lana as she was about to be raped. She couldn’t do anything to save her. She tried to wiggle out of her ropes, and got one of them untied. “A little more, come on,” Chloe said as another rope was untied. “2 more, just 2 more,” she said to herself.

Pete pulled the blanket up, and saw the kryptonite needles on the ground. Pete grabbed them, and pulled himself up with one arm. He walked over to Nam-Ek and Aethyr, and watched as Nam-Ek, Aethyr, and Clark winced in pain. “Get off him,” Pete said to them. Nam-Ek and Aethyr crawled away, as Pete dropped the needles and helped Clark up. “Pete, you saved me,” Clark said, a little weak and surprised at how strong Pete was. “You’ve saved me many times Clark, plus, you needed me more than when I left,” Pete said to him. Clark super-sped to Zod, and punched him in his face. “You will never,” he said. “Hurt,” he said. “My friends, again,” Clark said as he punched him so hard that Zod passed out. Pete walked over to where a needle was and saw a kryptonite rock. He picked up the rock, and saw the kryptonian knife. Nam-Ek super-sped towards him, knocking Pete to the ground, but with the kryptonite close. He fought off Nam-Ek for a little bit, and then crawled to the knife. Nam-Ek super jumped at Pete and Pete turned around just as Nam-Ek landed on him. Clark wasn’t fast enough to stop Nam-Ek, but got there right after he landed. He started to feel weak, and saw Nam-Ek’s body lift off of Pete. He looked at Pete, who had blood on his hands, and he immediately threw away the rock when he saw Clark there. “Is he dead?” Pete asked. Clark checked his pulse. “He’s alive, but I don’t think he will be for too much longer,” Clark told him. Pete and Clark walked back towards Lana and Chloe, who were being held by Aethyr. “You will regret that,” Aethyr said as she threw Lana down and grabbed Chloe by the neck. Clark super-sped towards her, and he kicked her into a wall. Pete walked over to the kryptonite rock, and picked it up.

Pete gave the rock to Chloe. “Take this, you may need it,” Pete said to her as he gave her a kiss and walked away. “Pete,” Chloe cried. She didn’t want to lose him. Pete grabbed the knife again, and walked to Aethyr. He held it against her neck, but she threw him across the room. Pete still had the knife in his hand, and threw it at Aethyr. The knife hit her stomach, but didn’t hit hard enough to kill her. Chloe limped to Aethyr as she pulled out the knife. Aethyr was know in more pain from the kryptonite. “Clark, are you alright,” Chloe asked him as she still had the rock in her hand. “I’m fine, just get that away from me,” Clark said to her. Pete picked up the knife just as Chloe threw the rock a couple feet away. Aethyr pulled out a metallic disk and threw it on the ground. It was the same as the bracelet that trapped her and Nam-Ek into the Phantom Zone. Clark could feel his body being sucked in again. Aethyr pulled at Chloe as she was halfway in the Phantom Zone.

“Clark, help,” Chloe screamed as she tried to get out of Aethyr’s grip. Pete took his opportunity and stabbed Aethyr in the back. She screamed in agony, but then fell in the hole. The hole was still pulling in Clark as Chloe got out of it. Pete helped her up. “Clark, hold on,” Pete yelled to him. Pete grabbed onto Clark’s hand, and pulled him up. Clark super-sped towards Zod, and picked him up. He threw his body towards the hole just as Zod opened his eyes. “I will destroy you Kal-El,” Zod said as he fell into the hole as it sealed shut. Clark walked over to his friends to make sure they were alright. “I’m sorry that this happened to all of you,” Clark said with tears in his eyes. “I’ve said this before Clark, it’s not your fault,” Chloe said to him giving him a hug. “Lana, are you ok,” Clark asked her. “I will be, and I understand why you never told me,” Lana said to him. The two kissed and hugged for what seemed to be forever. “Lana, I’m sorry for what happened to your parents and all of the meteor freaks,” Clark told her. “What about the Hindenburg, aren’t you gonna apologize for that too,” Lana said to him. Clark smiled at this.” We’ll all be fine,” Chloe said to Clark. “But you are buying us dinner,” Pete said to Clark. “Thank you Pete,” Clark said as he helped him up. “Ahh,” Pete said as he stood up. “Are you ok,” Clark asked. “I don’t think I can walk,” Pete said to him. “There’s a car parked outside, we can use that to get home,” Clark said to them. “Only if you drive, my feet can’t handle it,” Chloe said as she looked at her feet that were still bleeding. “What the hell did they do to you,” Clark asked. “We’ll explain in the car,” Chloe said as Pete helped her up. As he did, he gave her a poke to her sides. Chloe smiled at him. The four of them got into the car and headed for Smallville.

At the hospital, Clark waited as the doctors checked up on his friends. “Clark, are they ok,” Jonathan said as he and Martha walked to the lounge. “They will be,” Clark said to him. “Son, are you ok,” Jonathan asked him.
“It’s just that, no matter what I do, the people I love and care for most will have to pay the price of knowing me,” Clark said. Jonathan was about to say something when a doctor came out to talk to Clark. Clark stood up when he saw the doctor. “Are they ok?” Clark asked. “They need to stay here for awhile, but they’ll be fine,” the doctor said to them. Clark was relieved to hear this. Clark looked at Lana, who was sleeping. He hated the people who did this to her. How could they do such a thing? Just to find me? Clark remembered all the happy times in his life. When he first saw Lana in kindergarten, she was so beautiful, but not as beautiful as she was know. He remembered when he first met Pete. It was when a bully was picking on Pete and Clark shoved him into a wall. The first day he met Chloe, she kissed him. When he and Chloe went to the dance their freshman year. He then remembered Ryan, he was like a brother. Or when his parents found out they were having a child of their own. Then he thought about the bad times. When he saw the Wall of Weird for the first time, and realized what he had done to Lana. When Ryan died, after he did everything he could to save him. When Kyla died, and how much it hurt when she did. He thought about when he felt he was responsible for the death of his unborn sibling. And when he left everybody he cared about to go to Metropolis.
When he married Alicia and she died shortly after that, or when he talked to Lois for the first time. Well, it wasn’t that bad to talk to her. And now because of his friends being tortured because of him. Clark walked into Lana’s room. “Lana, I know you can’t hear me, but I wanted to say I love you,” Clark said to her. “I know Clark, I know,” Lana said as she reached out her hand to hold his. At that second Lois walked in. “Hey Lana, I wanted to make sure you’re ok,” Lois said as she put flowers by her bed. “How are you holding up Clark,” Lois said to him. “I’m sorry, what did you call me,” Clark asked sarcastically. “I’m trying to be nice, ok,” Lois said back to him. “So, you’re trying new things,” Clark said. Lois just looked at him and back at Lana. “Well, I haven’t seen Chloe yet, so I probably should talk to her,” Lois said as she waved them good-bye. “Bye Lois,” Lana said with a weak voice. “I’m here for you Lana, I want you to know that,” Clark said to her. The two of them kissed a long and passionate kiss. Martha and Jonathan walked the door when they say them kissing. “We can come back later,” Martha whispered. “They gave me a great idea,” Jonathan said. Martha smiled and closed the door, leaving Clark and Lana to themselves.

I thought I should make Pete a hero, seeing as the producers wasted him, and this would explain a little bit of how he felt when he left, and when he didn't come back for so long. It gets even better.

Chapter 12

Clark left Lana’s room awhile alter when she was sleeping, so he decided to check on Chloe and Pete. Before he walked out, he looked back at Lana, and had a look of sadness, and then he closed the door behind him. He first walked to Pete’s room. “Pete, how are you feeling,” Clark asked him. “I’m fine Clark,” Pete said back to him. Clark looked at him with guilt in his eyes. “Why is it Pete, that this sort of thing has to happen to me and the ones I care about,” Clark said to him as he sat next to Pete. “Clark, you can’t stop every evil person, if you could, we would be in Utopia and wearing plaid all the time,” Pete said trying to cheer up his best friend. “You say that like it’s a bad thing,” Clark retorted back. The both of them just laughed for a little while. “Clark, do remember our first day of high school, and you tripped when you got close to Lana?” Pete asked him. “Yeah I do, but do you remember when you were under that spell and kissed Chloe for the first time?” Clark said to him. Clark laughed a bit but stopped when he saw Pete coughing. “Pete, you ok,” Clark asked. “Yeah, my burns still hurt a bit,” Pete said to him. Clark became serious and worried about his friend. If only he could change all this, and never have told his friends about his secret, or never came to earth in the meteor shower that destroyed so many lives. But Pete looked at him, as Clark was in a daze. “Clark,” he yelled. “I don’t think you should worry about me, have you talked to your parents,” Pete asked him. “Ya’ know Clark, sometimes the hero needs some help too every once in awhile,” Pete said to him. “Yeah, I guess ur right Pete, I’m going to check on Chloe, I’ll see you later,” Clark said as he stood up. “Clark, thank you,” Pete said to him as Clark waved a hand good-bye and left the room. He went to check on Chloe, but she was putting her clothes back on when he stepped in her room. “Chloe, shouldn’t you be in bed, resting,” Clark asked as he turned around to be polite. “I’m fine Clark, all I need is to get back to the planet,” Chloe said to him. “Chloe, why do you have to be so stubborn,” Clark asked her.
“I could say the same about you,” Chloe said as she put her shirt over her head and walked to the door by Clark. “I don’t want you to leave sooner than you need to,” he said to her. “Clark, I’ll be alright, besides, you know how I deal with these kinds of things,” Chloe said to him. “You stare at your computer until you fall asleep,” Clark said. Chloe gave him a stern look. “I research, and occasionally I fall asleep,” Chloe said knowing she couldn’t win this one. “Well, Lois is picking me up, and I told her I wouldn’t be late,” Chloe said to him. “What did you tell her,” Clark asked. “I told her 4 aliens kidnapped and tortured us, and the only good alien, you, saved us and kicked some major ass,” Chloe said to him. Clark wasn’t sure she was joking. But then she hit his arm playfully.
“Come on Clark, I told her that we were kidnapped by some ruthless people that I get myself involved in, and you got there and helped us escape,” Chloe said to him. “What about you and Pete killing the--,” he paused, not wanting to bring it up, thinking it may upset her. “Clark, we did what we had to to protect ourselves and our friends,” Chloe said reassuring him. “Well, me and Lois are off to my house, I expect to see you and Lana there next week,” Chloe said to him. They both gave each other a hug, and said their good-byes. After Chloe left, Clark looked around to see if anyone was looking, and super-sped out of the hospital and headed home.

In the courtroom, Lex’s lawyer spoke on his behalf. “My client, Lex Luthor, is innocent of the murder of Samantha Tuly, and he should be taken out of prison immediately,” his lawyer said. The jury thought about this for awhile. Lex sat nervous, waiting for the verdict. His hand tried to stop his knee from shaking. “We find the defendant, not guilty,” a man from the jury said to the judge. Lex sat there, happy that the courts didn’t use Rachel as an example.
“But your honor, what about the careless beating he gave Rachel Kolp,” a witness said. “I have the evidence on video tape, your honor,” the witness said. “Put the tape in,” the judge said. Lex was now more terrified than ever. He knew he couldn’t get out of this one. The courtroom watched as Lex beat Rachel Kolp to a pulp. “Lex Luthor, what is your reason behind this devious act,” the judge asked him. Lex stood up. “May I present my case, your honor,” Lex asked him. “Yes sir,” the judge said to him. “I wasn’t thinking when I hit Miss Kolp, I wanted to apologize to her, but how do you apologize for something that, cruel, that, inhumane,” Lex told the courtroom. “Miss Kolp, I hope you can accept my apologee one day, and I want to apologize to her family,” Lex said to her parents. Rachel looked at him with disgust, as she tried hard to force tears from her eyes. “Lex Luthor, you are charged with assault and battery,” the judge said to him. “We will continue this tomorrow at noon, court is adjourned,” the judge said. Lex watched as the guards walked to him and put the handcuffs back on him. “Dad, don’t let them do this to me,” Lex said as they took him away. Lionel watched his son disappear into the other room. Lionel walked to his limo, and next it was Lucas. “Lucas, what are you doing here?” Lionel asked him. “I’m here to give my support to my brother,” Lucas said as he lit his cigar. “Lucas, I don’t have time for your games, I have a meeting to get to, now what do you want,” Lionel asked him. “I want to give you another chance, a chance to save Lea,” he explained to him. “You can’t save Lex, he did this to himself, but you can be my father again, and a father to Lea,” Lucas said to his father. Lionel looked at him angrily. Without thinking, he picked up Lucas’s collar and pushed him against the limo. “Listen to me you little bass, you don’t know who you’re messing with, and if you hurt Lea, so help me I will--,” Lionel was cut off when 2 of Lucas’ men pointed their guns to Lionel. “You had your chance, dad,” Lucas said as he straightened his collar and put out his cigar. “Let’s go,” Lucas said as he and his men walked away. Lionel was furious. “Wexlar, call Mark Tuly, and see if Lea is alright,” Lionel said to him. Lionel climbed into his limo. “Sir, she and her uncle are fine,” Wexlar said to him. “Driver, take me to Mark Tuly’s house,” Lionel said to him.

Once the driver got to the house, he got out as fast as he could and knocked on the door. “Lionel, I’m surprised to see you here,” a woman said when she opened the door. “Hello Margaret, may I come in,” Lionel asked. “Of course Lionel,” she said to him. Lionel walked in the small house. “I wanted to thank you for taking care of Lea for me, and that I want her back,” Lionel said. “You’re a busy man, and she needs at least 2 parents,” Margaret said to him. “I know, but there are some things going on, and I think she will be better protected with me and my security,” Lionel said to her. “What are you talking about?” Mark asked as he walked down the stairs with Lea holding his hand. “Hi honey, how are you,” Lionel asked as he reached his hands out to hold her. But Lea looked at him like he was a stranger. “It’s me, your dad,” Lionel tried to explain. “She doesn’t recognize you, you haven’t been here for so long,” Margaret said to him. “I know I haven’t been by since I got out of jail, but I want to be a father to her,” Lionel said to her. “How old is she,” Lionel asked. “She’s almost two,” Mark said to him. Lea was born a little bit before he went to jail. He found out about her when he was in jail, and Samantha and Lea visited him a few times. She was skeptical, but thought he deserved to know about her. “Well, we should get out of here, there are people coming after her,” Lionel said. “Can I hold your hand, honey,” Lionel asked Lea. “Ok daddy,” Lea said as she squeezed Lionel’s hand. The two walked out of the house, smiling at each other. Mark and Margaret watched, worried something bad would happen to Lea. “Dad, is Lea gone?” a voice behind Mark asked. “Yes, she’s with her dad now,” Mark said to him. “Where’s your sister, Alex,” Mark asked him. “Jenny is with some friends, why,” Alex asked. “We have to leave tonight,” Mark said to him.

As Chloe and Lois drove to her house, Lois started to ask questions about what really happened. “Chloe, I know Clark is pretty strong, but how did he fight three aliens that were a lot stronger than any human,” Lois asked her. Chloe was getting nervous. “Lois, there was also a meteor rock there, that could hurt them,” Chloe explained, trying not to give away Clark’s secret. “There also was a knife that could hurt them, and Pete used it to kill two of the aliens,” Chloe said to her. “The other alien, was sucked into a vortex, and the vortex disappeared right after he was sucked in,” Chloe said. “What about Dr. Fine, is he alright,” Lois asked. “We didn’t see him when he left the room before Clark got there,” Chloe said. “So, how did Clark break in,” Lois asked again. “He started hitting it with a sledgehammer, and the ground was weak enough that it only took about a minute to get through,” Chloe said, hoping Lois wouldn’t be too skeptical. Lois turned into Chloe’s driveway, and noticed a different car there. “That’s not my dad’s car,” Chloe said aloud. “Let’s go see who it is,” Lois replied. Chloe looked at the car, a Ford mustang GT convertible. She knew her dad had gotten his job back at Luthorcorp a few months ago, but there was no way he could afford that car.
Chloe and Lois stepped in the door. “Mr. White,” Chloe said surprised.

Chapter 13

Hello Ms. Sullivan,” Perry said as he turned around. “I heard that you have had an internship at the Daily Planet for a few months now,” Perry said to her. “I wanted to congratulate you,” Perry said to her. “Thank you Mr. White, but what brings you to Smallville,” Chloe asked him. “Well, it’s a little complicated, but I got between Lex and his brother,” Perry said to her. “But I can’t go into it, I really must be going, your father and I were discussing how much you love journalism,” Perry said to her. “I have to be going, I have to get back to Metropolis,” Perry said to her. “By the way, I read some articles by a girl who wrote for you over a year ago, do you know who Lois Lane is,” Perry asked her. “She’s my cousin, and right in front of you,” Chloe said to him. “I read some of your work, have you ever thought about journalism Miss Lane,” Perry asked her. “Well, not until a few months ago, and I wasn’t sure,” Lois said back to him. “I think you should, you have great talent, much like your cousin and Clark Kent,” Perry said to her. Little did he know that Lois hated being compared to Clark. “I have to go, good luck at the Planet Miss Sullivan,” Perry said as he walked out the door.
“Chloe, I didn’t expect you home so early, I still don’t know why you wouldn’t let me pick you up?” Gabe asked. “I wanted to talk to Lois, about girl stuff.” Chloe knew her father was sad that she would rather hang out with Lois than him, especially after what happened to her. “Why don’t we do something this weekend Dad,” Chloe suggested. “Sure honey,” Gabe said as he gave her a hug.

Lionel and Lea walked to the mansion and went to an empty room. “This is your room, I hope you like it,” Lionel said to her. “I wike it,” Lea said to him. He liked her little lisp. Lea looked around at all the ponies and dolls that were in the room. It was a big room for a little girl, but Lionel thought she deserved one after sharing a small house with her mother, aunt and uncle and her three cousins. There were only four bedrooms in that house. Lionel missed being a father, but was as happy the day he met Lillian. But not as happy when his first son, Lex was born. He held his little body so lightly as not to hurt him. He thought of Julian, that he had caused his son’s death. He knew Lillian was right, if Julian did grow up, the brothers would hate each other, and it’s the same with Lucas, who hates all of them. Lionel didn’t know how powerful Lucas was, and didn’t think of him as a threat. Lionel lay on Lea’s small bed, and fell asleep fast. “Daddy, it’s not night time,” Lea said as she shook Lionel. “I’m awake sweetie, I’m awake,” he said as he turned around to look at his daughter. “Do you want to play with my pony,” she asked her father. “Ok,” he said to her. “You look like your mother,” Lionel said to her. “Daddy, where is mommy,” Lea asked him. Lionel had hoped she wouldn’t ask this. “She died, a few days ago,” Lionel said to her. “But she will always be in our hearts,” he said to her. “Is that mean man who took her in our hearts too,” Lea asked. “What did this mean man look like,” Lionel asked. Lea described him the best way she could, but Lionel couldn’t put a face on him. He pulled out a picture of Lucas and handed it to her. “Is this the mean man?” Lionel asked. “Yeah, I don’t like him much, he tells a lot, and hurt mommy,” Lea said to him. Lionel had a look of hatred on his face. He crumpled the picture, and walked out of the room. “Wexlar, I want extra security tonight,” Lionel said to his bodyguard. “Yes sir,” Wexlar said to his boss. “I want a gun, just in case,” Lionel said to him. “Sir, if anybody comes here, me and the other guards will take care of it,” Wexlar said. “I want a gun, not an explanation,” Lionel said raising his voice. “Does it matter what kind, Mr. Luthor,” Wexlar asked. “No, just any handgun, something that will do the job,” Lionel explained. “Will do sir,” Wexlar said as he walked down the hall.

Clark opened the door of his house, hoping his parent’s were home. “Son, we’ve been waiting for you,”
Jonathan said to him. “I’ve been wanting to talk, there’s so much going on,” Clark said to his parents. “First, I’m sure you’ve heard what happened to Lex,” he said. “Yeah, he beat up one of his girlfriends,” Jonathan said. “I know he was acquitted in Samantha Tuly’s death, but he’s now being charged with aggravated assault,” Clark said. “Son, I know this won’t make you feel any better, but I warned you about him,” Jonathan said. “I know, I just thought you were being protective,” Clark said. “But I now see what Lex is, and I don’t think I can forgive him,” Clark said. “Honey, I know this is hard, but you’ll get through it,” Martha said as she gave him a hug. “Now son, I don’t mean to change the subject, but you never explained what happened when you fought those Kryptonians,” Jonathan said to him. “I asked Lana what happened before I got there, and she said that she was burned, electrocuted, and Aethyr scratched her body with her nails, and they poured some chemicals on her,” Clark said. “They did this to all of them, and Zod broke Pete’s arm,” Clark said as he fought back tears. “Dr. Fine, who I never saw, used some mind trick on Chloe and made her go insane,” Clark said. “I was too late to save them,” Clark said. “I wasn’t fast enough,” Clark said as he began to cry. “Son, with all of your abilities, with your speed and your strength, you can’t save everybody,” Jonathan said as he put his hand on his shoulder. “It wasn’t your fault,” Martha said to him. “When I first told Lana, she looked at me like a freak, and I didn’t know what would happen,” Clark said to them. “But after she was tortured, she told me she understood why I never told her,” Clark explained. “For once in my life, I feel like I went through hell, and came out a better person,” Clark. “I wanted to kill those kryptonians for hurting my friends, but I didn’t, instead Pete killed two of them and the other is in the Phantom Zone,” Clark said. “Dr. Fine, who I guess is now known as Braniac, is dead, at least that’s what Zod said to his disciples, and Pete, Lana and Chloe heard this,” Clark said. “Are you sure he’s dead?” Martha asked. “I don’t know if he is, or if Zod said that so I would believe he was dead, and if he needed Braniac again,” he explained. “What do you mean, needed again?” Jonathan asked. “Branaic helped Zod and the other kryptonains escape out of the Phantom Zone,” Clark said. Clark explained all of this for the next hour. “Well, son, I need to get back to the farm, do you mind picking up the slack a bit,” Jonathan said to him. “I don’t know dad, do you think I’m strong and fast enough?” Clark said. “Maybe,” Jonathan retorted back. Clark super-sped around the farm, picking up haystacks and throwing them into the truck when he noticed something on the truck. “Dad, look at this,” Clark said as he walked closer to the truck. “What is it?” Jonathan asked. “It’s a key, I guess,” Clark said taking a closer look at it. “Another key, to what?” Jonathan asked. “I think it’s a key to the spaceship that brought Nam-Ek and Aethyr,” he answered. “I know where the ship is, but I’ll need a big truck to haul it,” Clark said to him. “I can borrow a semi-truck, is that big enough,” Jonathan asked. “It should be,” Clark answered.

Chloe drove back to the hospital that night, and saw Pete’s parents and two of his brothers. “Hi Miss Ross, how are you holding up?” Chloe asked her. “I just don’t understand why anybody would do this to Pete, he didn’t do anything wrong,” Abigail Ross said. “He’ll be fine, I know he will,” Chloe said as she looked at Pete’s mother who was in tears. “Chloe, come here,” Pete sad. “If you look in the truck that Clark drove us in, you’ll find a knife in the backseat,” Pete said to her quietly. “It has kryptonain blood on it, maybe Clark can use it for something,” Pete said to her. “Why didn’t you tell Clark,” Chloe asked. “Because, I didn’t want the knife found by somebody else, and Clark might think I might keep it as a reminder,” Pete explained to her, “Reminder of what,” Chloe asked as she grabbed his hand. “Reminding me that I killed two people, and that I would never forgive myself, you know how Clark worries,” Pete said to her. “Yeah, I know Pete, but what if someone found it,” Chloe asked him. “I didn’t have time to think, Chloe, I just grabbed it,” Pete said to her raising his voice. “I’m not sure why you’re keeping this from Clark, but you need to tell him how you feel,” Chloe said to him. “I wanted to protect Clark, because he has always been there for me,” Pete said to her. Chloe leaned closer to him and the two kissed for awhile. She knew he had a lot of guilt inside of him, for leaving Clark when he needed him the most, why he didn’t tell Chloe the way he felt about her until a few months ago, and now for killing two people. She knew in time he would forgive himself, after all, he saved his best friend with no powers at all, and he knew he owed Clark that.

Chapter 14

Lionel watched his daughter sleep on her bed. He held the gun in his hand, nervously. He had a feeling that Lucas would come tonight. He was having a nice and peaceful thought about Lillian when he heard a noise coming from the yard. “Please God, forgive me for my sins, do not punish my children for it I beg of you,” Lionel said as he coked his gun. BANG! BANG! BANG! He heard three gunshots and something hit the floor hard. He gasped when he had heard this. “Daddy, what’s that noise? Lea asked her father. “Shhh…”Lionel said to her. “Darren, I need you at the left wing, hurry,” Wexlar said on a walkie talkie. “Stop right there,” Wexlar said to him. Lionel could tell they were 30-40 feet away from him and Lea.

BANG! BANG! Lionel heard another body fall, hoping it wasn’t Wexlar. As he saw a shadow by the door, he heard running coming from the stair down the hall. The shadow moved away and walked towards the stairway. BANG! BANG! BANG! Lea screamed at the last gunshot. Lionel quickly put his hand over her mouth. A shadow walked towards his door, and stopped. The man opened the door just as Lionel fired a shot at him. “Lea, I want you to stay here, ok,” Lionel said to her. “Otay,” Lea said starting to cry. His back was facing the door.

The man came from behind and shot Lionel in the back. Lionel cried out when the bullet hit his skin. He turned around to face his enemy, when he was shot again in his leg. He looked down at his leg, and heard more gunshots. He didn’t feel anymore pain, and thought he was dead or numb. He then turned around to look at Lea, who had three bullet wounds to her chest, stomach and head. His pain turned to anger, and he turned back to the intruder just as the intruder was reloading his gun.

Lionel shot four times at him, hitting him once in his stomach, and the other his shoulder. He knew the guy wasn’t dead. The intruder left the room, holding his wounds and dropping his gun. Lionel jumped at him, with his gun in his hand. He started to beat the man viciously, and didn’t stop for awhile. When he did stop, he looked at the motionless person in front of him. He could barely lift his arm after that. He pulled out his cell phone from his pocket and attempted to dial 911. He sat there, next to the Lea’s body, crying. “LEA, LEA,” he cried out for her. “Please state your emergency,” the woman on the other line said. “I shot two intruders, and my daughter, my daughter has been shot,” Lionel said as he started to cry very hard. “Where are you sir?” “Luthor mansion, please hurry,” Lionel said as he closed his phone.

Pete’s mom was making dinner for Chloe and Pete when one of Pete’s brothers’s walked in. “Little brother, what up son,” his brother said to him. “Not much Will, you?” Pete asked him. “It’s all good man,” Will replied back. “This is Chloe,” Pete said to him. “The Chloe you have been talking about, the most beautiful girl in the world Chloe,” Will said to his brother, trying to embarrass him. “No, this is a different Chloe,” Pete said. Chloe looked at him, not finding it funny. “Yeah, this is her,” Pete said as he put his hand around her side.

“Well, Chloe it’s nice to meet you, and if you, ahh get bored of Pete, and want a real man, let me know,” Will said to her. “Nice meeting you, and I’ll think about it,” Chloe said with a smile, trying to get back at Pete. “Was that supposed to be funny?” Pete asked her. “Yeah it was, did you not find it funny?” Chloe asked him. “I’ll show you funny,” Pete said to her as he tickled her sides. “Pete, don’t please,” Chloe said in between her laughter. Even with one arm Chloe couldn’t get his grip off of her.
“Pete, leave the poor girl alone, or I’ll show her some of your baby pictures,” Abigail said to her son. Pete stopped and put his hands in his lap. “Thanks Miss Ross,” Chloe said to her. “Oh, you thought I was done, did you,” Pete said to her with a devilish grin. “To be continued,” Chloe stopped her smiling when he said this.

“I think I was tortured enough Pete,” she said to him. Both of them turned silent. Abigail walked in the dining room with two plates in her hand and looked at the depressed couple. “Are you two alright, you’re not pregnant are you,” Abigail asked. “No, no of course not,” both of them said to her really fast.

“Good,” she said to them as she turned around and went back to the kitchen. “Pregnant, do I look pregnant Pete,” Chloe asked him. “If you are pregnant, you would be the best looking pregnant girl I’ve seen,” Pete said to her. “Are you saying you’ve been with a girl who was pregnant,” Chloe asked him. “No, I use protection, I know I don’t have kids out there,” Pete replied to her. “I didn’t need to know that Pete,” Chloe said to him, with a look of sadness on her face. “Chloe, that came out wrong, I’m sorry,” Pete said to her as he rubbed her back. “I know Pete, but you’re more experienced than I am, and I feel like I’m a disappointment to you,” Chloe said to him.
“Chloe, what we have, is nothing like I have had with any other girl, you are more special to me than any other girlfriend I had,” Pete said to her.

“You’re so sweet,” Chloe said as she gave him a kiss on his cheek. “I’m gonna call you Peetie sweetie,” Chloe said to him. “I don’t think I like that nickname,” Pete said to her. “How about, Pete the Boss Ross,” he suggested. “No, I like Peetie sweetie,” she said to him. “Chloe, if you say that again, I’ll have to resort to drastic measures,” Chloe warned her. She got up from her chair and called him “Peetie sweetie” again. She ran from the table knowing he would come after her. “Pete, don’t I’m sorry,” Chloe said, as she tried to get away from him. “It’s too late Chloe,” Pete said as he grabbed her and layer her onto the couch. “Ok, I’m sorry,” Chloe yelled out. Chloe got up, and started to feel light-headed. “You ok Chloe,” Pete asked her. “I have a head-ache, I’ll be fine,” she said as she put her hand on her head. She tried to stand up, but her head started to hurt more. “Ash,” she cried out as she hit the floor and passed out. “Chloe, Chloe!”

“Mom, Will, help me, something’s wrong with Chloe,” Pete yelled. “What is it Pete,” Abigail asked. “She said she had a head-ache, and when she stood up, she fell down and passed out,” Pete explained. “Come on, put her in your car and we’ll take her to the hospital,” Abigail said to him. “She’ll be fine Pete, trust me,” Will said reassuring him. Will picked Chloe up and walked towards the door. “Pete, open the door,” Abigail said as she grabbed Pete’s keys from the kitchen counter. Pete ran to the door and opened it for the three of them.

After she was in the backseat, Pete pulled out his cell phone. “Mr. Sullivan, I’m sorry to bother you but Chloe just passed out and we’re driving to the hospital, we’ll meet you there,” Pete said to him. “Is she alright, what happened,” Gabe asked Pete. “I don’t know, but I have to get going,” Pete said to Gabe. “Alright, I’ll see you at the hospital,” Gabe said as he pushed the end button on his phone.

“Come on Chloe, you’re gonna be alright,” Pete said as he moved away the hair from Chloe’s face. Will didn’t say anything, but he put his hand on his brother’s back and gave him a look like it was going to be alright. Right when Abigail parked Pete’s car, Will got out and picked Chloe up, and rushed to the elevator. Will made sure people were out of the way. “Alright people, we got a girl that fell and passed out, and needs medical attention,” he said to the crowd waiting in line for the elevators. Some people looked back and turned around as if they didn’t care. “Are you people crazy, get the hell out of our way so my brother can get his girlfriend to a doctor A.S.A.P,” Will said again to the crowd. People now started to move. Abigail slapped him in back of his head. “What?” Will asked his mother. Pete watched the numbers on the elevator, and it felt like forever for him.

Thank you guys for your comments. I will update soon. No, I'll leave it as it is and leave you to wonder what happens. Just kidding, I wouldn't do that. BTW, I tried to put pics in my story, just pics of the characters and all it did when I posted it in here, was have a big gap, no pic. I think it was the chapter where Perry was talking to Gabe, and Chloe and Lois got to the Sullivan house. Any idea how much older Perry is from Clark in post crisis timeline, universe, thing? You'll find out why I need to know. Thankx again for the comments!!!

MOOman0618

If I had to guess I would say 20-30 years. But I am not sure. And post soon so we can find out why you need to know.

Superboy2
09-08-2005, 11:38 PM
Well, the next 2 chapters will not deal with why I need to know, but in chapter 17 it will come clear. I think it's more than 20, because Michael McKean looks older than forty. More like fifty, then again, he was an alcoholic(only on the show) and that made him look older. Lex looks older than he is with no hair. But that's just me. I guess I could make him whatever age I wanted to, but I'll try to see if other people know a definite or pretty close age.

Chapter 15

RING! RING! Clark pulled out his cell phone as he was still telling his parents what happened. “Is she ok?” Clark asked the person on the other line. “Ok, we’ll be there in a few minutes,” Clark said as he hung up his cell phone and put it back in his pocket. “Chloe was at Pete’s, and she passed out after saying she had a head-ache,” Clark explained to his parents. “I’ll explain everything else later,” Clark said to them. “Son, it’s ok, we have plenty of time,” Jonathan said to his son. Clark heard his cell phone ring again and answered it. “Yeah,” “My uncle Gabe just told me that Chloe passed out at Pete’s, and Lucy and I are on our way to the hospital,” Lois said to Clark. “I know, Pete just called me, we were just about to leave,” Clark said to her. “Lois, can you call Lana?” Clark asked her. “Sure Smallville, I’ll do that right know,” Lois said as she hung up her phone.
“Lois and Lucy are on their way to the hospital,” Clark told his parents. “Let’s go son,” Jonathan said to him.

The three of them walked outside and realized the truck was in the shop. “The truck is still in the shop,” Clark said. “Why don’t we call my dad,” Martha suggested. “Ok,” Jonathan agreed. “I’ll meet you two there,” Clark said. “Alright, it should be about a half hour or so,” Jonathan said to him. Clark super sped to the hospital. Martha and Jonathan walked back inside the house. “Dad, we need a ride to the hospital,” Martha said when she called her dad. “Sure sweetheart, I’ll be there in 15 minutes,” William said to her. “Bye dad,” Martha said to him.

“Lois, are you sure you know where we’re going?” Lucy asked her older sister. “I was at the hospital earlier today, I know where it is,” Lois told her. “Sure you do,” Lucy said under her breathe. “So how are things with you and Dan?” Lucy asked her. “I don’t like him that much, he likes to dress up as different superheros, and tried to get me to where a Xena outfit,” Lois explained to her. “Didn’t you wear a Xena costume when we went to that Halloween party a few years ago?” Lucy asked. “That was years ago, Xena was cool back then,” Lois explained. “I remember that night, you met up with a guy that had a red and blue costume,” Lucy said to her. “Shut up, and don’t tell anyone about this, got it,” Lois said to her. Lucy just sat there silent, with a smile on her face thinking about Lois falling for a guy that wears red and blue a lot. “What’s so funny?” Lois asked her. “You falling for a guy that wears red and blue a lot, kind of like Clark,” Lucy said to her. “Me and Smallville, yeah right,” Lois said to her. Lois turned when she saw the sign for Smallville hospital next right.

“Hey Lois, hi Lucy,” Clark said as he was about to open the door. “Thanks for being a gentleman and opening up the door for us Clark,” Lucy said as she winked at him. “You’re welcome,” he replied. “Did you call Lana?” Clark asked. “I forgot, sorry,” Lois said to him. Clark took out his phone and dialed her number. “Don’t you have speed dial Smallville?” Lois asked him. Clark wasn’t listening. “Lana, I’m at the hospital, Chloe passed out at Pete’s,” Clark explained to her. “I’ll be there as fast as I can,” Lana said to him. “I love you,” Clark said to her. Lana was silent for a few moments. “I love you to Clark,” Lana said to him. The three of them walked to Chloe’s room and saw Gabe by her bedside. “Pete, what happened?” Clark asked him. “I don’t know, one second she was fine, and then she got a head-ache. She collapsed when she stood up from my couch,” Pete explained.

“Maybe you guys went home too soon from the hospital,” Clark said to him. “Clark, this was not from her injuries,” “We were sitting in the hospital for 9 hours, the doctors said we just need some rest,” Pete explained again. “Well, she did have a head-ache before she got to the hospital?” Lois asked. “No, not that I know of,” Pete answered. “Clark, can I talk to you, alone?” “Sure Pete.”

The two walked to a corner where they wouldn’t be heard. “Clark, do you know for sure if Braniac is dead?” “I don’t know Pete, didn’t Zod tell you guys that he killed him?” “He did, but it could have been a lie,” Pete suggested. “Clark, maybe you should ask, you know who if he knows, about, ya know.” Pete said to him. “I could, but I’ll wait until Lana gets here”
“I can tell her where you’re going, if you want me too,” Pete suggested.
“No thanks Pete,” Clark heard his cell phone in his pocket and answered it. “Hey Lana,” Clark said when he pushed the talk button. “I’m on my way Clark, but there must have been an accident,” Lana told Clark. “What kind of accident?” “There’s a bunch of cars with dents the size of boulders on them, but the drivers never saw what hit them,” Lana explained. Clark thought of the dent in his parent’s truck. “I’ll talk to you later Lana, bye,” Clark said to her. “Pete, what kind of powers does Braniac have besides mind control?” Clark asked him. “I don’t know if he has any other powers,” Pete said.

“Why Clark?” “I think Braniac is trying to find me,” Clark said to him. “What makes you think that?” Pete asked. “How would he hit the cars, he doesn’t have kryptonian powers,” Pete said to him. “There’s only one way to know for sure,” Clark said. “You’re gonna talk to Jor-El?” “I’ll have to,” Clark said to him. BAM! Everybody gasped when they heard the loud sound of a crash. “What was it?” Lois asked. Clark used his x-ray vision and saw a red truck with a big dent in it. “Pete, get everyone you can out of here,” Clark said to him. A figure appeared before Clark. Pete told his mom, brother, Lois and Lucy to get out of there. “Mr. Sullivan, you have to get out of here<” Pete told him. “I won’t leave my daughter,” Gabe replied back. “Mr. Sullivan, please,” Pete said to him. Gabe would not leave Chloe.

Clark did not recognize this man. The man looked like a rotting corpse. “Who are you,” Clark asked the cloaked man. “You know who I am Clark,” the man said to him. “Dr. Fine!” “I used to be that human, but I am now Braniac” “What do you want with me?” “I want you dead, why else would I come?” “I will stop you!” “You may be smart, but I am much smarter than you,” Braniac explained to him. “We’ll see about that,” Clark said as he super-sped towards him. Branaic used his telekinesis to push Clark back. “You know, it was sad, you’re father, you’re real father, was the only one who knew about Krypton’s doom,” “But I convinced the council members to not listen to him,” Braniac explained to him. “Because of you, my parents are dead, and so is my home planet,” Clark said to him. “But what I really want, is your friend Chloe,” Branaic said to him. “You can’t have her, I won’t let you,” Clark said as he was about to super speed again towards him. But he stopped when his body felt weak inside. “You thought you could out wit me, you stupid fool,” Braniac said to him. “You are a hard person to find Kal-El, I had to go through several red trucks to find you,” Braniac said. Clark looked at the chunk of Kryptonite that Braniac dropped from his sleeve.

You may have more powers than me, but mine are a lot stronger than yours,” “Almost every truck I hit, someone al least has heard of you,” “I didn’t know where you were until I hit Lana’s truck, the last one I hit,” Braniac said to him. “Lana” Clark said in a weak voice. “I threw her truck into the handicapped zone, she did hit the ground pretty hard,” Branaic said as he laughed a little. “But I need to get going, I need a new body, and since Chloe was the last person I touched besides Zod, I’ll use her body until I get one strong enough,” Braniac said to him. “But don’t worry, I won’t hurt her anymore, in fact, when I’m done, she won’t feel a thing,” Braniac said as he walked past Clark. As Braniac walked to Chloe’s door, Pete stepped in front of him. “I don’t have time for this,” Braniac said as he put his hands on Pete’s head. As he picked up Pete by his temples, Pete started to have a seizure. Braniac dropped him and walked into Chloe’s room. “I won’t let you hurt her,” Gabe said to him. “You too huh, oh well,” Braniac said as he used his telekinesis to push Gabe hard into the wall, and knocked him out. “Now, I will be reborn” he said as he lifted Chloe’s body with his mind. Chloe’s eyes went white.
To be continued……………………

As some of you know, I asked a little earlier how much older Perry was from Clark and Lois. Well, that will be in chapter 18 or 19, because I'm not sure if I will be able to fit it with everything that is going on. Plus, I know that I said other DC characters will be coming. The only one I have mentioned was Lucy Lane. There will be a few more to come. I have yet to decide which ones and how they will tie in. Thank you all for your comments, and please post even more.

Chapter 16

At the police station,

“Mr. Luthor, tell me what happened,” an officer asked him. Lionel was sobbing, and couldn’t stop to talk. “This men, this filthy bas***** came in here, shot 3 of my men, and killed my daughter,” Lionel said as he wiped the tears coming from his eyes. “And you shot him in self defense,” the officer asked him. “Self defense, of course it was self defense, what the hell else would it be,” Lionel said in a fit of rage. “I’m sorry sir, but we need to get the story right,” another officer said as he walked up to Lionel. “Could I please get some water,” Lionel asked the officers. “I’ll get right on it,” an officer said to him. “It says hear that your daughter was not in your custody, she was in a Mark Tully’s care?” “Yes, that is correct,” Lionel answered the cop. “But, I had just gotten her today, and I wasn’t worried about the paperwork, I haven’t seen her for awhile,” Lionel said to her. “My files also say that she was murdered not too long ago, is that right?” “Yes, it is,” Lionel answered.

“What were you doing the night of her murder?” “I was at a business meeting, in Metropolis,” Lionel said to her. “Can anyone confirm this?” The officer asked. “Yes, m’am,” Lionel said to her. “Then I guess you’re good to go, I’m sorry for your loss Mr. Luthor,” the officer said to him as she got up and put a hand on his shoulder before she left. “Officer, who was the intruder?” Lionel asked her. “I’m sorry sir, I can’t give out that kind of information,” the officer said to him.

“You’re sorry, that’s all you can say, a man breaks into my home, kills three of my men and my daughter, and you can’t tell me who he is,” Lionel said to her. Everyone in the room seemed to stop for a second and look at him. The officer stopped, and turned around. “His name was John Teshna, he has a shady background and works for a man who calls himself the Scarlet,” the officer said to him quietly. “But you didn’t hear it from me,” she said to him as she walked away. “Thank you, Officer Hauer,” Lionel said to her. Lionel recognized that name. It was a nickname he gave to Rachel Donleavy. He knew she wasn’t behind this, she didn’t have any resources and could never pull this off. It had to be him. “I’ll kill that illegitimate son of a ----,” Lionel stopped as he saw a man he recognized. “Lucas,” he said to himself. Lucas looked at him, and smiled at him. “That’s him, he’s the Scarlet Son,” Lionel shouted. Lucas stopped smiling and ran out the door. Lionel calmly walked to the door and called his driver. “Driver, take me to Edge City,” Lionel told him. “What business do you have there, Mr. Luthor,” the driver asked him. “Nothing really, just an old score to settle with an old friend,” Lionel said as he opened a bottle of wine and poured himself a glass.

“We find Lex Luthor, not guilty,” the jury said to the judge. Lex sat there, with a grin on his face. “How stupid the judicial system” is he thought to himself. His lawyer patted him on the back. Lex wasn’t sure if it was because he had fooled the court room, or of his lawyer actually cared. But he didn’t care, he got off of two offenses in a week. He knew he had to celebrate. Lex pulled out his cell phone and called Clark. He got no answer, but didn’t worry about it. “My father should be envious, damn it’s good to be a Luthor,” Lex said aloud, but not loud enough that anyone would hear. He decided to call his dad, and rub it in his face. “What is it Lex,” Lionel answered. “I guess you didn’t hear, I got off, again,” Lex said as he chuckled a bit. “Congratulations, I’m glad to hear that the court system is more corrupt than I thought,” Lionel said to his son. “Son, you can have Luthor Corp, I don’t want it,” Lionel told his son. “What’s the catch, I know there is one,” Lex asked him. “There is none, it’s just that I don’t want this anymore, I want to retire, and spend time with my son,” Lionel told him. “Then what, you wanna go fishing, or maybe you want to go bowling,” Lex laughed at him.

“I’m being serious, son,” Lionel said to him. “Ok dad, I believe you, what do you want,” Lex asked. “I want a relationship with you, a real one,” Lionel told him. Lex could tell Lionel was sincere. “Dad, are you ok, have you been drinking?” “No, I just want my son, that’s all that matters to me now, and it always should have been that way,” Lionel said to him. “Dad, maybe we should talk when you get more sleep, you seem a bit worn out,” Lex said to him. “I am not tired, and I am not drunk, I just lost my daughter, and I don’t want to lose my son,” Lionel shouted at him. “What happened to Lea,” Lex asked him.

“You’re brother, hired someone to kill her, and I shot him,” Lionel explained to him. “Dad, I’m sorry I didn’t know,” Lex said to him. “It’s ok, it will all be ok soon,” Lionel said to him. “Dad, where are you?” “Edge City, I’m going to pay Lucas a visit, and let him know what a disappointment he has been,” Lionel told him. “Dad, hire someone to do this, don’t do it sloppy,” Lex told him as he ran to his car and pulled out his keys. “I have to go, son, I love you,” Lionel said as he hung up his phone. “Dad, dad,” Lex shouted, but didn’t get an answer. He frantically searched for the key to his Porsche. He started his car up and drove towards Edge City. He knew what he had to do. “God, please protect my father, I know what he is about to do isn’t right, even though Lucas has done so much to him, and to me,” Lex said as drove faster.

Just then he heard sirens in back of him. He didn’t want to stop. Lex kept driving until the cop car rammed the back of his car. “What the hell,” Lex asked as he looked back at the cop car. The cop car rammed him again.
“I don’t need this,” Lex said as he got rammed again. He looked in his mirror and saw the car was gone. “Where’d it go?” He looked behind him and could not see the car. Once he turned to the front, he saw the car at his side. “What do you want?” Lex asked as he screamed at the cop. The officer pulled out her gun and shot at him twice. Lex didn’t get hit, but tried to maneuver as best as he could. He got hit again. He then stopped in the middle of the highway when the cop car sped off. He was relieved, for the moment.

The cop car stopped, turned around and sped at him. “This cannot be happening,” Lex said as he turned his car around. But he wasn’t fast enough. The cop car hit him at 35 miles per hour. He was glad it wasn’t on a bridge. The cop car flew a few feet, and landed on its back. Lex walked out of his car, with a gun in his hand. He limped a little when he walked towards the person who tried to kill him. “Who sent you,” Lex asked as he pointed the gun to her face. “Lionel,….Luthor,” the woman said as she took her last breathe. He looked at her name tag, and noticed she had a fake badge. “Darlene Hauer,” Lex said to himself when he read her tag. His leg hurt a little, but he wasn’t far from Edge City. He knew where his brother was, and needed to stop his dad, before he does something he’ll regret. Lex walked for a few minutes when he saw a semi truck. He waved the man for help. The driver dropped him off at a small house. “4179 W. Edger Ave., that’s it,” Lex said to himself. As he walked up to the door, he looked in the back yard and noticed a limo was parked across the street. Lex walked to the door and tried to open it with no luck. He tried to kick it, and with luck he licked it open. He held his gun in his hand, trying to be as quiet as he could. He walked up the stairs, and saw his father about to walk down. “A woman just tried to kill me, dad, and she said that you sent her, “Lex said to him. Lionel didn’t say anything. “Dad, what happened,” Lex asked him as he put his gun to his side. “I couldn’t find Lucas anywhere,” Lionel told him. Lex looked at him suspiciously, but didn’t say anything to upset him. “Let’s go home son, we can find him another day,” Lionel told him as he walked past his son. Lex followed after a few seconds, debating whether or not he should search the rooms. “Come on Lex, there’s nothing up there,” Lionel told him. Little did Lex know that the body of Rachel Kolp lay there, motionless. Both men walked to Lionel’s limo, when they looked and saw a Ferrari parked a few feet behind it. Lucas stared at them through the window as he drove off. Lionel and Lex watched his car go by. Lionel ran to his car and jumped in. “Follow him,” Lionel said to the driver. “Dad, don’t do this,” Lex said to him. Lionel stared in front of him, and the limo drove off. Lex watched the car go by, as he made a phone call to get a ride home.

I have most of it planned out. The Clana won't happen till the end of chapter 18 or 19, but more in Chapter 20 for sure. I plan on making this a long story, so it won't be over for awhile. But many big things are going to happen. Some will leave you in aww. Some will be like this---"That was so totally awesome, you need to PPMS!!! You're a great writer, we should be paying you" Maybe I am going a little too far? Not sure but thanks for the comments. I will be posting chapter 17 around 4:00 my time on Wednesday. It's12:20 here, so you can do the math. Thanx again.

The Clana will be in Chapter 20. It will be a good wait. There will also be some Ploe. Chapters 21 and 22 will be devoted to the Luthor plot, since it won't be in chapters 17-20. The new characters will be coming soon, but it's during or after chapter 20.
Thanx for all of the comments!!

Chapter 17

Clark struggled to get up as Branaic was about to transfer bodies with Chloe. “Don’t do this to her,” Clark said as he crawled towards Chloe’s room. An officer approached the room with a gun in his hand. He looked in astonishment at what he saw. “Put her down, you, whatever the hell you are,” the officer told him as his gun shook. Braniac turned his head towards the officer. The officer stopped and put his gun down. “Good human, good,” Branaic said. “Now why don’t you use your gun for a much better use, like the boy laying on the ground next to you” “My wish is your command,” the officer said as he pointed his gun towards Pete. Just as the officer was about to shoot Pete, Clark was able to use the last of his strength and used his heat vision to burn the officers hand. “Ahh,” the officer said as he came out of the trance. Chloe’s body started to shake uncontrollably, as if she was having a seizure. Her eyes went back to normal as she fell back down to her bed.

The rotting corpse of Braniac fell down to the ground. Chloe lifted her head up, and looked down at Clark. “Kal-El, I have defeated you,” Branaic said to him. Braniac looked at his new body, and smiled with satisfaction. Branaic pulled off all of the wires that were stuck in Chloe.“Now for some clothes,” Branaic said as he walked to the front desk, looking at a woman who was trying to hide from him. “I need your clothes, security pass, and your shoes,” Branaic said to her. The woman gave her/him her clothes and security pass. She untied her shoes nervously, crying. “Thank you dear, you have been so good,” Branaic said to her. The woman sat there as she pulled her knees to her chin, and put her arms over them. Branaic walked back to Clark, and started to punch him repeatedly. “This is the day that you will fall, Kal-El,” Branaic said to him. “But don’t worry, you will be with your birth parents soon enough,” Braniac said as he kicked Clark in his side. Clark groaned in pain. Pete woke up to see Chloe beating up Clark.


“Chloe, what the hell are you doing?” Pete asked her. “He is not one of us, he needs to die,” Branaic said, trying to convince Pete to help him. Pete looked at Braniac’s old body, and knew somehow Branaic was inside of Chloe. “Let her go Branaic,” Pete said to him as he got up. “What are you going to do, kill me?” “If you do, you’ll kill Chloe as well,” Branaic said to him. A white light appeared in front of Clark.“Get up my son,” Jor-El’s voice said to Clark. Clark looked up, and saw a figure he recognized well. “Jor-El, how are you doing this,” Clark asked him as the body of Jor-El walked to him. Clark was the only person who could see him. “I am able to come back in form once, and I will help you defeat Branaic,” Jor-El said to him. “Get up my son,” Jor-El told him. Clark was able to push the kryptonite away from him, and stood up. Jor-El’s image was now visible to everyone. “Jor-El, but your dead,” Branaic said to him. “Father, don’t hurt her, she’s my friend,” Clark told his father. “Come on Jor-El, forget what your son says, he is just a mere human,” Branaic said to him with a smile. “Son, I may not have a choice, if I let him go long enough, he will use her body to live once again,” Jor-El said to his son. “There has to be another way,” Clark said to him. At that point Branaic took his opportunity and used his mind powers on the two kryptonians. “Welcome, my new friends,” Branaic said as Jor-El and Clark bowed down to him. Little did he know that the two of them were faking it. Clark super-sped towards Braniac and hit him into a wall. “Clark, don’t hurt her,” Pete said as he grabbed his arm. “Clark held Chloe’s body towards the wall. “Clark please help me, he’s hurting me inside,” Chloe said to him as she cried. “Chloe, hold on,” Clark said as Jor-El walked to them. “Use this, she’ll be able to fight once this is injected into her body,” Jor-El told his son as he pulled out a metallic needle and handed it to Clark. But Branaic was too powerful by now. He put his hands on Clark again, and raced through his memories to find what he needed.

“The arctic, that’s where it is,” Branaic said as he took his hands off of Clark and pushed him down. Clark was in a catatonic state, and Jor-El held him in his arms. “You are the last son of Krypton, and I will not let you die,” Jor-El said as he put his hand on Clark’s heart. Jor-El used the last of his power to wake up Clark. Before he woke up, Branaic ran towards the stairs. Pete watched as Jor-El’s body disappeared. Before he left, Jor-El told his son one last thing.
“Be the man you are meant to be,” he said as his voice disappeared. “Clark, Clark are you alright,” Pete asked as he shook on Clark’s body. Jonathan and Martha arrived at the hospital, and saw their son lying on the ground. “Pete, what happened,” Jonathan asked him. Martha kneeled down to Clark. She brushed his hair from his face. A tear came down on her cheek. “Branaic is using Chloe’s body to do what he wants, and he’s headed towards the fortress,” Pete said to them. “He knows where it is,” Jonathan said. “There’s more, Jor-El was here, he was helping Clark, and gave the last of his power to help him,” Pete explained. “Jor-El,” Martha said as she looked at Jonathan. “He helped him, how would he do that,” Jonathan asked. “I’m not sure, but we need to get to the fortress, do you know how to get there,” Pete asked them. Jonathan and Martha looked at each other.
“No, Pete, we don’t,” Jonathan answered. “The key, it has to transport us there,” Pete said to them. “First, we have to get Clark home,” Jonathan said as he lifted Clark up. “The fortress should heal him, Mr. Kent,” Pete said to him. Pete and Jonathan carried Clark to the limo, while Martha was behind them a few steps. “Martha, he will survive this, once we get him to the fortress, Jor-El will heal him again, he’s done it before,” Jonathan said reassuring her. The four of them drove to the caves.Lana called Clark’s phone, but didn’t get an answer. She decided to call Lois. “Lois, do you know where Clark is?” “Isn’t he at the hospital?” “He’s not answering, and neither is Pete,” Lana said to her. “Where are you, Lana,” Lois asked her. “I’m trapped on Route 11, my car was hit by….something,” Lana said, knowing who it was but didn’t want to tell her. “I’ll come pick you up, bye,” Lois said as she hung up her phone. Lana waited patiently for Lois to pick her up.

“Thanks for picking me up, I tried calling the Kent’s but they’re not picking up,” Lana said as she got in the back. “Hi Lucy,” Lana said to her. “Hey.” The three of them drove to the Kent farm, and saw a limo in front of the driveway. “Who owns the limo,” Lucy asked them. The three walked to the door, and Lois pulled out her key and inserted it. “Hello, is anybody home?” Nobody answered. Lois ran her hand on the wall to find the light. “Mr. and Mrs. Kent, are you home? Lois asked. “I don’t think they’re home,” Lucy replied. “I guess we’ll have to wait then,” Lois said. Lana didn’t like to wait around. She walked back and forth nervously in the kitchen, while Lucy and Lois were watching T.V. in the living room. Where is he, is he alright? Was that Braniac that hit my truck? Is Chloe safe? All of these questions ran through Lana’s mind at once. She decided to go to the loft and take a look around. “I’m going to the loft for a little bit, I’ll be back soon,” Lana said to the Lane sisters. “Ok,” Lois said. “Let me know if Clark or anyone else calls,” Lana asked them. “Sure thing Lana,” Lucy replied. Lana left the house and walked to the loft.

CHAPTER 18

The limo stopped where the caves were. “Come on Pete, help me get Clark in,” Jonathan said as he tried to pick Clark up. The two men barely lifted him up. “How far do we need to get him,” Pete asked. “There’s a door in the sealed room. I’m not sure how Clark will get in without being conscious, but we’ll find out soon,” Jonathan said to him. Martha followed them to the caves. When the four of them got to the key hole, Jonathan put his hand on it. Three colors filled the key hole, illuminating the room. Martha was in tears looking at Clark, and Jonathan tried to calm her down. “Martha, he’ll be fine, don’t worry,” Jonathan said to her, trying to be as positive as he could. Martha nodded her head and put her arms around Jonathan. The wall opened up, and the three of them looked at it with amazement. Pete and Jonathan dragged Clark into the room. “Pete, you stay here with Martha, I’ll take Clark in,” Jonathan said to him. “I’m not going to stand by and not do anything, I’m going with you,” Martha said. The door to the fortress opened up, and Pete flew back. Holding on to Clark, Martha and Jonathan were sucked in with him. The door closed before Pete could go with them.

Lana walked in the loft and looked through Clark’s dresser. “There has to be something,” Lana said to herself. She searched through everything, and couldn’t find anything that would help her. She stumbled upon the gift that Chloe gave Clark. It was the picture of the three of them. She smiled when she looked at it. She went back to the house with no luck of finding anything. “Hey, you’re back,” Lois said when Lana stepped in. “I called the hospital, and there is no sign of Chloe or Clark,” Lois said. “I can’t sit around here and wait for them, I’m going to look for them,” Lois said as she stood up. “Where are we going to look,” Lucy asked. “Well, lets at least try looking for them,” Lois said to the two of them. “Let’s go then,” Lana said to them as Lois grabbed her keys. The three girls drove off to find Chloe and Clark. Lana heard her cell phone ring in her purse. “Pete, what’s wrong,” Lana asked. “Clark and the Kent’s are in the…..cave wall,” Pete said not knowing what to tell her. Lana quickly thought of something to say to not sound suspicious to Lucy and Lois. “We’re looking for them to Pete, I’ll let you know if we find them,” Lana said to him as she hung up her phone. Lana was thinking of how to get away from Lois and Lucy. “I think we should check the hospital, maybe they’re back,” Lana suggested. “I was thinking the same thing,” Lois said.

When they walked in the hospital, it looked like a war zone. “What the hell happened,” Lois said aloud. “I hope they’re alright,” Lucy said. Lana heard sobbing from the front desk. She saw a naked woman crouched up. “What happened to you, are you ok,” Lana asked her as she bent down and put her arm on the woman’s shoulder. The woman looked terrified. “Some…blond girl with a hospital gown took my clothes, shoes and security pass,” the frightened woman said. Lois looked in a locker and pulled out a gown and a blanket. “Here you go, you’ll be ok now,” Lois said as she reached down and handed her the blanket and gown. “Thank you,” the woman said. “Do you now what happened here,” Lana asked. “Some girl, who was unconscious before, sprang up and started to go nuts. She put her hands on this short guy, and he fell to the ground. Some big guy was trying to reason with her, and he fell down when she threw some kind of a rock at him.” Lois and Lucy were skeptical.

“So, you’re saying a green rock brought down this big guy, how hard did Chloe hit him with it?” Lois asked. “She didn’t, she just put it on the ground,” the woman explained to her. Lana knew there would be too many questions. “Look guys, she’s been through a lot, we can questions later,” Lana said, trying not to sound suspicious. “I’m sorry,” Lois said to the woman. “What’s your name,” Lana asked. “Melanie,” the woman answered. “We should call the cops,” Lois said. Lucy didn’t like the sound of that. “Maybe I should get going, I’m getting tired,” Lucy said with a fake yawn. “Don’t want to deal with the cops after last week do you,” Lois said to her. “Yeah, let’s just say that going to another country with a stolen car on your record never looks good to cops,” Lucy said. “Let me know if Chloe is ok,” Lucy said as she gave her sister a hug. “We will, I’ll talk to you tomorrow,” Lois said as she released her grip on Lucy.

“I’ll be in the girl’s room,” Lana said as she walked away from the group. When she was out of sight, Lana took out her cell phone and dialed Pete’s cell phone. “Pete, where are you,” Lana asked quietly. “I’m still in the caves, I’m not sure if I should leave or wait,” Pete answered. “We’re at the hospital, can you get here, or I should I come to you,” Lana asked him. “I can pick you up,” Pete replied. “I’m not sure how I will explain this to Lois,” Lana said. Pete was thinking of an excuse when suddenly his head started to hurt. “Lana, my head…it hurts..like a bit**, help me---,” Pete’s voice trailed off. “Pete, are you ok,” Lana asked. Pete didn’t answer. Lana waited for an answer, but all she got was silence. “Pete, Pete!!!!”
Lois and Lucy ran to Lana when they heard her famous screams. “Lana, what’s wrong,” Lois asked.

“Pete, he said he has a headache too, and then he went silent,” Lana said as she sat down on the ground. “I think that whoever that guy is that took Chloe and Clark is behind this somehow,” Lois said.
“Channeling your inner reporter inside of you, huh,” Lana said to her. Lois smiled at this. “I guess it’s in my jeans,” Lois said. “You could always be a radio disc jockey like Clark suggested,” Lana said to her with a grin on her face. “He told you about that survey I took a year ago,” Lois said to her. “Yeah, he said that you love to hear yourself talk, and there would be no dead air, and I agree with him,” Lana smiled and giggled a bit. “I think I’ll stick to journalism,” Lois said as she gave a playful slap to Lana’s arm. “Not to change the subject, but I need to get going,” Lucy said. “There’s a few cars with the keys inside with my name on it,” Lucy said as she grinned a bit. Lois looked sternly at her, then she smiled. “Just don’t get caught, ok,” Lois said to her. “Alright, bye,” Lucy said as she walked away. “I think I should see if Pete’s ok,” Lana said to her. “I’ll wait here and stay with Melanie until the police and paramedics get here,” Lois said. “By the way, can you hot wire a car for me,” Lana asked her with a grin on her face. “Sure,” Lois said, happy that her thief skills were good for having from time to time. Lois walked outside and walked to a fancy car. She opened the door, and looked for the cables. After a few seconds, the car started. “I still got it,” Lois said with a proud expression on her face. Lois walked back inside and told Lana it was ready.

“Thanks Lois, I owe you one,” Lana said as she walked past her. “No problem,” Lois replied as she walked back to Melanie. Lana walked to the car, and looked at it. “Viper, she does have some taste,” Lana said as she stepped in the car and drove off. “The police will be
here soon, ok Melanie” Lois said putting her hand on her back. “That…girl,…that thing, was nothing like I’ve ever seen,” Melanie said as her eyes gazed into space. “Melanie, you’re safe now, she, or whatever it was will not hurt you, I promise,” Lois said reassuring her and calming her down. Lois heard the sirens coming from the cop cars. They were close. “They’ll be here soon, ok,” Lois said to her. Four cops walked in, with a paramedic close behind. “Where are the other doctors,” a police man asked. “They evacuated the premisise, we are the only ones here,” Lois answered the cop. “What happened to her,” a cop from behind asked. “It’s a long story, and I’m not sure all that’s going on, so you’ll have to ask her,” Lois said as her eyes gazed to Melanie. “Well, we have a few questions for you ma’am,” the first cop said to her. Lois did not want to do this, but she felt bad for Melanie and stayed to support her. “Sure, I don’t mind at all,” Lois said, lying worse than Clark.

END OF CHAPTER 18
STAY TUNED, AND KEEP UP THE COMMENTS

Since I ticked off alot of people, I will post chapter 19 very soon. But that mean chapter 20 will not come until Wednesday, around 4:00 p.m. my time. Sorry to all I made mad. Please forgive me.

CHAPTER 19

In the fortress, an unconscious Clark was being dragged by Jonathan and Martha. Both Jonathan and Martha looked around in astonishment at where they were. “So this is Clark’s new Fortress of Solitude,” Jonathan said as he looked all around him. A low groaning noise came from Clark. “Jonathan, I think he’s waking up,” Martha said as she bent down to him and hugged hum tightly. “Mom,” Clark said with a weak voice. “Yes, honey, I’m here,” Martha said as she gave him a kiss on his forehead. “Son, I don’t mean to disturb you, but I thought we needed Jor-El’s help to bring you back,” Jonathan said as he took a little walk to explore. “I feel different, like I’m…normal,” Clark said to his parents. “He took them, didn’t he,” Jonathan said to his son. “I don’t know, it’s not like the first time I was stripped of my powers,” Clark told them. “What do you mean, son,” Jonathan asked. “I think Braniac needed my help in taking over,” Clark started to explain. “He tried to make me and Jor-El under his control, but we were able to fight him off,” Clark said. “Jor-El’s power was not strong enough to fight back, and I don’t know where he is,” Clark said to them. “Where could he be,” Martha asked. “He might be in here, or somewhere else I don’t know about,” Clark said. “Now, son, you mean to tell me that you have no powers, and you have no idea where Jor-El is,” Jonathan said to him. “I’ll try one of the crystals,” Clark said trying to get up. “Ahh,” Clark winced in pain as he sat back down. “Dad, we have a problem,” Clark said to him as he put his hands on his head.

“Hello, Kal-El,” a female voice said to him from afar. “Braniac, you took away my powers, what do you need Chloe for,” Clark asked him. “Well, I guess I could take your body, but I like this one more, it has better features,” Braniac said with a grin. “Take me, and let her and my parents go,” Clark said as he fought off the head-ache and stood up. “You really think you’re a match for me, you and your father couldn’t do it with your powers combined, what makes you think that you will win this time,” Braniac asked him. Clark thought for a moment. “Because, I was sent here to protect Earth from people like you, and I have to try, powers or not,” Clark said with a confident look on him. “If that’s what you want, then so be it,” Braniac said to him as he raised his hands. Braniac lifted Clark from the ground. “What makes you think I need you, I have the Kryptonian I need,” Braniac said to him. “What are you talking about,” Clark asked him. “Oh, I didn’t tell you, this little trinket, it holds General Zod,” Braniac explained to him. “How is that possible,” Clark asked him. “The Phantom Zone, you know what it is, you put Zod there, and you’ve been there before,” Braniac said to him. “No need to worry though, Zod will not disobey me, considering I’ll be in your body,” he explained to him. The Fortress lit up, illuminating the room. Clark, Martha, Jonathan, Martha and Chloe/Braniac looked around, all confused. Clark only acted confused. Braniac read his mind, and knew what was going on. “You think you’ll get your powers back, do you,” Braniac said to him. “It must be hard, Braniac, growing up with a father who wanted perfection, and having a son who was the complete opposite,” Clark said with a grin on his face.

Braniac’s mouth curled to an angry expression. He used telekinetic bolts and hit Clark with them. He then threw Clark against the wall. The telekinetic bolts were now hitting him stronger than before. Jonathan and Martha looked in horror at seeing their son being killed. Jonathan wrapped his arms around her, and Martha’s tears came running down her face. Clark crawled to a chamber, and tried to lift himself in it. “No, nooo,” Braniac said as he was about to lift Clark up again. Clark was able to close the door just in time. A red light surrounded the chamber Clark was in. “It is time, my son, be the man I always wished you would become,” a booming female voice said to him. “Lara,” Clark said as he walked out of the chamber. Her image appeared in front of everyone to see. “Lara, long time no see, how long has it been,” Braniac said to her. She was confused at first, but looking into Chloe’s eyes she could tell it was Braniac. “Not long enough,” Lara retorted to him. “Kal-El, this man is the reason for our demise, as your father explained to you,” Lara said to him. “You know what you must do,” she told him. Her image faded away as did the lights that were illuminating the fortress.

“How do you defeat me, without hurting your friend,” Braniac asked him with an evil grin. “I have an idea,” Clark said as he super-sped toward the other end of the fortress. He looked at the various Kryptonian artifacts. One of them was a black rock. He threw the rock with super-speed so as not to be affected by it. It fell by Chloe/Braniac.
Chloe and Braniac split, much like Clark did when he was his Kryptonian alter ego. Chloe struggled to fight off Braniac’s mind, but wasn’t strong enough. “Clark, please help me,” Chloe cried out for him. Clark super sped to them, and punched Braniac in his chest. “I will find you Kal-El, and when I do, you and the ones you care about will meet the fate that I gave your parents,” Braniac said as his voice trailed off.

Chloe, are you alright,” Clark asked as he put her head in his arms. “What took you so long,” Chloe said as she looked at him. “I was a little, busy at the moment,” Clark said to her with a smile. Chloe gave him a kiss on his cheek and smiled. Jonathan and Martha walked over to them. “I’m glad to see you’re alright Chloe,” Jonathan said to her. “Thank you Mr. Kent,” Chloe replied as Clark helped her up. “Well, I guess we were able to meet the people that gave us the greatest son any parent could hope for,” Jonathan said as he put his hands on Martha’s shoulders. “I suppose you would like a formal introduction,” Clark said to his parents. Jonathan and Martha looked at each other. “Of course we would, we would be honored,” Martha replied to Clark. The four of them walked to some display area. Clark grabbed a blue crystal, and inserted it into the display base. “Jor-El, Lara, I want you to meet my earth parents,” Clark said as Jor-El and Lara’s images came out of nowhere and in front of them. For Clark, this was no big deal. For Chloe, Jonathan, and Martha, it was a sight like they have never seen. “So these are the humans that have raised you, we always hoped you had people that would love and care for you,” Lara said to them. “I knew you’re father, Hiram Kent, he ad his wife were good people, so I chose them, or rather you, to be the foster parents of our only son,” Jor-El told the Kents. “If given the chance, I would have hoped to be just as good of a father that you have been, Jonathan Kent,” Jor-El said to him.

“Thank you Jor-El, it means a lot,” Jonathan said. “Martha Kent, I see where the love and warmth comes from, and I can see it in you,” Lara said to Martha. After awhile, the four decide they needed to get back home, and Clark put the crystal back where it was. Before they left, a white light blinded the four of them. It shot through Martha and Jonathan, unbeknownst to Clark and Chloe. Clark was confused, but decided that it must have been a way of the fortress shutting down.“What was that Clark,” Chloe asked. “I don’t know, it must be shutting down or something,” Clark replied. Clark put his hand on the doorway, and pushed down on three symbols as it they started to glow yellow. The doorway unlocked, and they walked out to the caves again.

Lana and Pete were waiting anxiously for the four of them to return, and safe. “I hope they’re ok,” Lana said aloud, thinking Pete wouldn’t hear her. “Lana, they’ll be ok, come on, it’s Clark,” Pete said trying to ease the tension. A bright light came from the room, and Lana and Pete looked to see four figures coming through. After their eyes adjusted, they could tell who they were. “Lana, I’m glad you’re ok,” Clark said as he picked her up and hugged her. Clark and Lana kissed passionately. “Chloe, thank god,” Pete said as he put his arm around her and held her tight. “How’s your arm Pete,” Chloe asked. “Never mind about me, I want to know you’re ok this time, and what you saw in there,” Pete said with enthusiasm. “I’ll explain it when we get back home,” Chloe said to him. Pete held her tight. He kissed her long blonde hair. “I love you so much, Chloe,” Pete told her. “I love you to, Pete,” she said as she kissed him, and moved her hands down his shirt, not remembering Clark, Lana and the Kents right there. “Ehh emm,” Jonathan said. “Clark, you have to tell me what happened,” Lana said to him. “I will, but let’s get home first,” he said as he grabbed her waist and kissed her neck.

I'm in NYC!:lol: my time is the same as K-site time! so that's Mountain time? 2 hours back? near the bottom it says all times are GMT minus 5 hours and that GMT stands for Greenwich median time the place in England where the Prime Meridian runs through. So that's what I thought GMT was...

CHAPTER 20
PG13 for sexual innuendo

At the Kent farm, Clark and Lana walked to the loft, while Jonathan and Martha went in the house and put in a movie.
“Clark, are you ok,” Lana asked as she sat down on the couch. Clark sat beside her. She started to rub his shoulders, not knowing if he would even feel it. “I don’t know, I just feel so bad about everything that has happened in the last few days,” Clark said to her. “I know I’ve said this before, and so has everyone else, but it’s not your fault, Clark,” Lana said to him as she kissed his cheek. “I’ve always put my friends and family first, never thinking of my own feelings and what I want,” Clark told her. “When we were freshman, and you and Whitney were about to break up, I decided to let the two of you get back with each other, when I wanted you all for myself,” Clark said to her. “Clark, all of the things you have sacrificed, all of the things you have done, have made you the man you are today,” Lana explained to him. “You wouldn’t be the same person if you were like everyone else,” “You are so much better than us, because you are not selfish, and you didn’t use your powers in sports, or steal money, or get any girl you wanted, because you know I would kick your ass for it,” Lana said playfully. Clark smiled a bit. “Clark, you never explained why you left the theater five days ago,” Lana told him. “I heard a ringing in my ears, and I knew I had to get to the Fortress,” Clark explained to her. “I’m sorry I left you there,” Clark apologized. “It’s ok Clark, you did the right thing, with your life, sometimes you have to sacrifice your own needs and wants to help others,” Lana told him. Clark sat there with a sad expression on his face.
“When was the last time we made love, Clark?” Lana asked him. “A few weeks ago, why do you ask?” Lana giggled at this and sat on his lap. Both kissed each other very passionately. Lana’s hands were all over Clark’s shoulders and chest. Clark decided to put his hands on Lana’s waist. He gave them a tight squeeze, when Lana took her mouth off of his. “What’s wrong,” Clark asked. “Every time we do this, you tickle me,” Lana said to him. “Sorry, it’s not on purpose,” Clark said to her. Lana came back down and this time her hands were by his stomach. This time Clark squeezed again, but so as not to tickle her. Lana took her lips off of Clark and took off her shirt. Clark, was always amazed when she did this, even though he’s seen it before. Clark took off his blue shirt at the same time. Seductively, Lana started to take her pants off, slowly taking the belt off and moving them down her legs, making Clark heat up a bit. Clark started to float, about six inches off the ground. He controlled himself, and came down. As Clark watched, Lana was now to her bra. Once she took off her bra, she motioned Clark to come to her. “Can the big strong man help the little girl with her thong,” Lana asked playfully. Clark walked over with a smile and stepped down to her midsection. He took the thong off, kissing her legs as he came closer to her feet. After she kicked her thong away, Lana immediately stooped down to Clark’s pants and took off his belt. Once she got them off, she pushed on him and they both fell onto the couch again. “Do you have a condom,” Lana asked in between their kissing. “I think it’s over here,” Clark said as he got up naked and super-sped towards his drawer, and pulled out a condom. “Not for the average man, but for the Super-man,” Clark said to Lana as he read the label and took out the condom. “And super you are,” Lana said to him.

After Chloe talked to her dad and made sure he was ok, she decided to call Pete and make plans. “Hi Pete, have you talked to your parents?” “Yeah, I called my dad, and he hopes you’re feeling better,” Pete told her. “I was wondering if you want to come over, my dad left a few awhile ago, and he’ll be out of town for awhile,” Chloe told him. “So you have the house to yourself, huh,” Pete asked. “Well, Lois will probably stop by, but she said she had to talk with her dad about something, and she might be back tomorrow,” Chloe explained to him. “When do you want me to come over,” Pete asked. “Let’s see, it’s 4:00 now, and I was going to go to Clark’s to see if he was ok, if you want to come,” Chloe said. “Of course, I’ll pick you up and we can go back to your place later or something,” Pete suggested to Chloe. “That’s fine, I’ll see you in 15 minutes,” Chloe replied. “I should be there sooner, I just put a new transmission in my mustang.” “I never understood, boys and cars,” Chloe said playfully. “I never understood girls and shoes,” Pete retorted back. “We need 20 pairs of shoes that we’ll probably wear each pair a few times each, some none at all,” Chloe said. “By the way, are you going to be alright driving with a broken arm?” Chloe asked him. “Yeah, I’ll be ok, I’ll see you soon,” Pete said to her. “Bye,” Chloe replied. “I love you,” Pete responded. Both were on the phone, and were shocked. They weren’t sure what to say next. “Alright, I gotta get going, I’ll be there shortly,” Pete said breaking the ice.
”Yeah, I’ll see you,” Chloe said as she hung up the phone.

Once Pete got to Chloe’s house, he turned off his car and thought to himself. “Why did I say I love her, do I really love her?” These questions and doubts ran through Pete’s mind as Chloe knocked on the window of the passenger side. “I’m sorry Chloe, I guess I was daydreaming,” Pete said as he unlocked the doors and started the car. “I love you to Pete,” Chloe said when she got in the car. The two kissed for a little before leaving for the Kent farm. “Chloe realized it was getting late. “Pete, we have to get going, it’s almost 9:00,” Chloe said to him. “Pete nodded and backed out of the driveway. Pete and Chloe headed for the farm, and they both smiled at each other. Once they arrived at the Kent’s, they knew that Clark and Lana must be in the loft when they saw the lights in the house were all turned off.

Both walked up the stairs, and saw a naked butt. “Clark, man I did not need to see that,” Pete said as he shut his eyes tight and put his hands over them. Chloe had a smile on her face. Clark immediately put on the covers. “What are you two doing here,” Clark asked, a little embarrassed. “We came to see if you were ok, and apparently you are doing just fine,” Chloe said. “Pete, how are your eyes,” Lana asked as she started to laugh. “Very funny,” Pete said. “Well, if you don’t mind, can we get dressed,?” Clark asked. “Yeah, we’ll be down here,” Pete said to him. Chloe stood there for a little bit before she went down to Pete. “That was embarrassing,” Clark said to Lana, super-speeding across the loft looking for his underwear. Downstairs, Chloe was laughing at the probably traumatized Pete. “Why did I have to see that,” Pete said. “Well, now the two of you are closer now that you’ve seen his rear,” Chloe said, trying not to laugh. “Ya know, I never did finish what I started,” Pete said to her. Chloe immediately stopped laughing and made a run for it. “Pete, come on, you know how ticklish I am,” Chloe said, trying to hide behind some haystacks that Clark didn’t get to. Pete started to tickle her again, and she fell to the ground, trying to get him off without hurting his arm. “Pete, stop,” Chloe begged. He did stop, and sat down next to her. The two kissed passionately, until Clark and Lana walked up to them. “Get a room,” Clark said to them. Lana and Clark sat down across from Pete and Chloe. Lana sat her head against Clark’s chest, and smiled at her friends. Chloe put her head on Pete’s shoulder, so she wouldn’t have to worry about his arm. END OF CHAPTER 20

Here it is, a little late, but it is worth the wait
Chapter 21

A car picked up Lex, and he told him to take him to Edge City. “Sorry, but that’s out of my way, and my brother was mugged at gun point a few weeks back,” the man said to him. Lex was a little upset. “Then take me to Luthor mansion, as fast as you can, don’t worry about the cops, I don’t think they are out today,” Lex told him. The man agreed, and sped off to the mansion. When they got to the gate, Lex had his security pay the man a few hundred dollars. “Thank you Mr. Luthor,” the man said counting it and smiling. Lex walked in the mansion and got cleaned up.
As he washed his face, he looked in the mirror. He looked at himself, and then saw his father in the mirror. “Son, it is time you follow in my footsteps, and become the Luthor I always knew you would be,” the image of Lionel told him. “Dad, we should use our resources to help people, not for our personal gain,” Lex said to him. Lionel’s right hand came out of the mirror and grabbed Lex by his neck. “You listen to me son, I didn’t spend twenty five years raising a weak and pathetic son like you, so you do this for me, and for your mother,” Lionel told him as he let go of his grip on Lex. “You can’t do this, you could get caught,” Lex explained to him. “I will do what I must to bring honor to the Luthor name, and to protect you, son,” Lionel told him. Lionel’s image faded away. Lex stood there, looking at himself for awhile, and saw himself in the mirror, smiling, and on the side of him, his father. They were both smiling, drinking scotch. Then the Lex in the mirror looked at the real Lex, smiling at him. “You can’t hide from what you are, Alexander,” the mirror Lex told him. “I am a good person, I know I have done bad things, but I am trying to get better,” the real Lex told him. “You’re weak, your passion for your friends has become a nuisance,” the mirror Lex said to him, drinking the last of the scotch in his cup. The real Lex punched the mirror, and it shattered. “I will not become my father my dad was, I will be better,” he said, looking at his bloody hand. “Mr. Luthor, are you ok,” a man asked him, looking at the shattered glass and at Lex’s hand. “Yeah, I’m not having a good day,” that was the best explanation Lex could give.

A few minutes later, Lex walked into his office.
Lex called his dad for the fourth time. “Son, I got your last three messages, now why don’t you go run Luthorcorp and let me do what I need to do,” Lionel said to his son. “Dad, I know what Lucas did was wrong, and you can never forgive him, but hire someone to do this,” Lex advised his dad. “I want to do this myself, I have always hired someone what I was not able to do on my own,” Lionel explained. “And, I owe this to Lea, and to you, as well as your mother,” Lionel said with a sniffle. Lex did not know, but Lionel was holding back tears. “Son, I have to go, I love you, no matter what happens,” Lionel said to him as he hung up. “Dad, dad,” Lex shouted, half expecting his dad would say something. Lex threw the phone against the wall, and it broke into many pieces. “Mr. Luthor, is everything alright,” a man asked him as he walked in. “Mr. Barivka, I need you to find my dad’s limo,” Lex said to him. “Sure thing, I should have his location in about twelve minutes,” Barivka said to him. “Terry, I don’t have that much time,” Lex told him. “Five minutes sir, give or take a minute,” Terry said to him as he turned around and walked out of the office. Lex’s cell phone rang, and he answered it. “Whoa whoa, what happened,” Lex asked the person on the other line. “Rachel Kolp is dead, Lex, it’s all over the T.V.,” the man said to him. “Thanks Henry,” Lex said as he hung up his cell phone. He turned on his T.V., and flipped through channels trying to find something else that didn’t talk about Rachel.
Lex turned on the WB, and saw a show that looked promising. Tonight on Smalltown, Tom accuses Michael of lying to him about what happened with Tom’s girlfriend Annette, and tells Allison that Michael has been cheating on her with Kristin, and had a one night stand with this girl Erica Duran a few months ago. Lex read this when he pushed the info button. “Looks interesting, but how could Michael and Cale be friends with all of these lies and betrayals,” Lex said to himself. “Let me guess, Michael is some rich guy, and his best friend is a hick,” Terry said when he walked in the office. Lex turned off his T.V. and stood up. “Did you find my father’s limo,” Lex asked. “Yes, and something else,” Terry told him. “What is it,” Lex asked again.
“Have you watched the news at all,” Terry asked. “No,” Lex answered. “Turn your tube on again and you’ll see,” Terry said to him.
“Rachel Kolp’s body was found today at an abandoned home, where it is believed that meetings are held their by crime lords and street gamblers,” the newswoman said on the T.V. “There are no suspects at this time, but if you have any information, please call 555-7402, or your local police,” she said as the phone number popped up on the screen. Lex turned off his T.V. and told Terry to leave him alone. “Your dad is in Metropolis, here’s where the limo is parked,” Terry said as he handed Lex a piece of paper. “Thank you Terry,” Lex said as he read the address.

For those of you that I have pressured to read my story and leave comments, I'm sorry. I will not do it anymore. Some of the pm's were reminders, no pressure. I would love and appreciate more comments, but there is no pressure. One of the reasons I did it was that I'm kinda new in here, and the other is that I see more people posting in other fics that are completed like a year ago, and not in mine. It's a jealousy thing. But that is no excuse for my actions. I hope you all can accept my apolegee(don't think I spelt it right).

CHAPTER 22

“Lucas, how could you do this to me, and your brother,” Lionel asked him. “You really don’t get it, do you dad,” Lucas said to his dad as he grabbed two beers from his fridge. “Sorry, there’s no scotch, we kinda drank it all last night,” Lucas said to him laughing and handed his dad a beer. “You think this is funny, my daughter is dead because of you,” Lionel said to him. “I gave you the choice, Lea, or me,” Lucas said putting his beer up to his dad’s. “But that’s all in the past now, like you said in Metropolis Weekly, “Live now, forget your past, because your future is the key to your success,” Lucas retorted. Lionel had an angry look on his face. Lionel dropped his beer on the ground and grabbed Lucas by his collar. “Listen to me you pathetic excuse for a child, you will never have my love, and you will not have any of Luthorcorp,” Lionel said as he held onto Lucas. “First rule of gambling is leave emotion at the door, and you’re gambling with your life,” Lucas said to him. Two tattooed men came out of a door with guns in their hands. “Let him go,” one of Lucas’ men said to Lionel. Lionel let go of his collar. “Now, you listen to me, I will have Luthorcorp, whether you help me or not,” Lucas said. “Do you want us to rough him up a little, Mr. Luthor,” one of Lucas’ men asked. “No, I can take care of this,” Lucas said, and turned back to his father. Lucas punched Lionel in his stomach. “Was that it, I think you’re mother can fight better than that, if she wasn’t in a mental institution,” Lionel said with a smile on his face. Lucas punched at his face, and Lionel came back with a punch to Lucas’ eye. As Lucas walked back, Lionel walked forward and grabbed his collar again. Now that Lionel had Lucas where he wanted him, he punched him again, and this time he hit Lucas’ jaw. Lucas lunged at him and wrestled him to the ground. Both threw punches at each other. Lucas was now on top, and put his hands around Lionel’s neck. Lionel tried to fight him off, but Lucas had the upper hand.

Lex was speeding down Suicide Slum in another one of his Porsche’s, hoping to get to Lucas and his dad, and figure everything out. He saw an old abandoned warehouse, and saw the limo a couple hundred feet away. Lex parked his car close to the limo, and opened his glove compartment. He took out a gun, and cocked it to make sure it was loaded. “I’m coming dad, don’t worry,” Lex said to himself as he put the gun in his pocket, and get out of his car. An officer was at a coffee shop across the street, and he gave Lex a weird look. Lex didn’t care though, and walked toward the warehouse. He saw a security camera about five feet above him. Normally, this would seem weird, why would there be a security camera for an abandoned building, but he knew it must be where Lucas was. Lex knocked on the door, and didn’t get an answer. A man opened up the door, and asked Lex what he wanted. “I can’t let you through without the password,” the guy said to Lex. Lex pointed his gun at the man’s forehead. “I don’t need a password, I’m the owner’s brother,” Lex said to him. Lex looked at Lucas choking his dad. “Let go of him Lucas,” Lex said to him. “Lex, how long has it been, about two years,” Lucas asked. Lucas let go of Lionel, and Lionel walked over to Lex. “The last time I saw you, you gave me fifteen thousand dollars and told me to have a good life,” Lucas said to him. Lex knew what he did was wrong, but what Lucas did was so much worse. “I’m sorry about what I’ve done to you Lucas, but I can’t change the past,” Lex told him. “Save your story Lex, I’ve heard them all,” Lucas said. “Put your gun down, and the three of us can have a little chat, you know, be a real family,” Lucas said laughing. Lex put his gun to his side, but didn’t put it away. “Lex do you know how dad got Luthorcorp back?” Lucas asked him.
“No, why don’t you fill me in,” Lex said as he brushed up against his father, and then walked toward the table. “Lex, I had a few of my people right some evaluations and I guess they failed some of your safety regulations,” Lucas explained, grabbing three more beers from his fridge. He handed a beer to Lex and Lionel. Neither of them opened theirs. “I guess they failed a lot of them, because the report says I failed two hundred safety tests,” Lex explained to him. “Well, business is a *****, you ought to know that by now,” Lucas said to them. “Lucas, what do you want,” Lionel asked.

“I want Lex to see who you truly are,” Lucas said. “You also hired fake inspectors, didn’t you,” Lucas said. “Is this true dad,” Lex asked him. “Yes, but I did it to protect you and Lea,” Lionel said to him. “Lex, come on, you know him better than anyone, do you really believe him,” Lucas asked. “No, but I do know you tried to frame me, you killed my sister, and you’re trying to set me up again with Rachel’s murder,” Lex said as his voice got louder. “What are you going to do Lex, kill me, you’ll never get past my bodyguards,” Lucas told him. Little did Lucas know, Lex had more than one gun on him. Lex pushed his chair back, and started to shoot wildly. One by one, Lucas’ men fell. Lucas crawled out of his seat, and pulled out his gun. He shot Lex in his arm, and had a smile on his face as he aimed at Lex’s head. “Little brother, you shouldn’t jump in with the big kids if you can’t swim,” Lex said as he shot Lucas in his chest and stomach. Lionel looked in shock at Lucas lying there. “Lucas, Lucas,” Lionel said as he walked to him and grabbed his hand. “Dad, please help me,” Lucas asked. “I couldn’t believe I fell for it again dad, you saying that you loved me, that we’ll be a family again,” Lex said to him. As Lucas lay there, gasping for air, Lionel started to cry. “I’ve lost two children already, I will not lose another, now come on son,” Lionel said to Lucas. Lucas looked at his father, and then closed his eyes. Lionel checked his pulse. “He’s gone,” Lionel said. “Dad, let’s get out of here,” Lex said to him. “What kind of man have you become Lex, I thought that by rekindling our relationship, we would become better people,” Lionel said as he stood up. Lex remembered when he was at the mansion earlier. “Son, it is time for you follow in my footsteps, and become the Luthor I always knew you would be.”

These words echoed in Lex’s mind, and he put his hands over his ears, trying to stop the voices. “Alexander, you failed me,” Lillian said to Lex. “I should have killed your father when I had the chance,” Lillian said. “You must do what I could not,” she said to him. “Hey big brother, why’d you let mom kill me, did you not love me enough,” Julian said to him. “All I ever wanted was to be a family, you, me, dad, but dad got in our way, do what you have to do,” Lucas said to him. “Lex, I don’t believe you, I know you killed Samantha and beat up Rachel,” Clark said to him. “You’re no better than your father Lex, maybe you’re worse,” Jonathan said to him. “Lex, I could never love you,” Lana said to him. “All I wanted was your money Lex,” Desiree said to him. “We could have been great Lex, but Lionel got in the way,” Helen said.
All of these people gave Lex the courage to do what he has wanted to do for a long time. “Dad, I am the Luthor you created, and this is my destiny,” Lex said to his father. “Lex, you don’t want to do this,” Lionel said to him. “I have learned that I can’t trust anybody in this world, not you, not Clark, and you taught me that, and I thank you for it,” Lex said as he pointed his gun at his dad. He cocked it, and shot one bullet towards Lionel. END OF CHAPTER 22

Also, not to disappoint some of you, but I didn't start this out as a Clana story. But, since no one reads where this story was before, I had to change it to Clana. I knew I wanted the Clex relationship to end, and I was going to have Lana and Clark break up. But ne need to worry. They will not break up in this story. And there will be more DC characters that I promised. The Perry storyline may be coming later, but I will fit it in. Thanx for all the comments and for those of you that have read it too.

CHAPTER 23

Lex stood there, looking at the dead body of his father. He looked around, and saw that two of the men he thought he killed were still alive. Lex reloaded his gun and cocked it. One of the men, limped his way to a door, and tried to stand up. Lex walked a little closer, and shot hum twice in the back. “Now where did you’re little friend go,” Lex asked as he looked around. Lex raised his gun, and shot a bullet above him. Lex heard a noise coming from one of the rooms. Quietly, he walked towards it, and slowly opened the door. BANG! Lex stepped back a bit, and noticed that the person was two or three inches from hitting him. “You shouldn’t have done that, but it’s too late to tell you the obvious,” Lex said to him. Lex looked on the ground, and saw a pieces of shattered glass. Looking into it, he saw his father and Lucas, drinking scotch, saying cheers to each other, and asked Lex what the hold up was. “I’m sick of you running my life dad, let me do things on my own,” Lex told the piece of mirror. Lex picked up the piece of mirror, and went back to the room with the last survivor inside. He positioned the mirror to where the man was, and could tell where he was. The man, seeing the mirror, shot at it, and hit Lex’s left hand. “Son of a *****,” Lex said as he looked at his hand. Lex was furious. Making a final stand, the man ran his way to the door, shooting in front of him. Little did he know, Lex was on the ground, and Lex surprised him when Lex’s head popped up from below and Lex shot at his head. “My job’s done here, it was really good to meet all of you,” Lex told the dead bodies. Lex walked to his Porsche and put the gun back into the glove compartment. He sat in his car for awhile, and heard sirens a few miles away. Lex started his car and headed towards Smallville.

The following morning, Clark awoke to see Lana’s arm around his chest, and he smiled. Not wanting to wake her, Clark gently removed her arm, and super-sped to his kitchen, “Good morning son,” Jonathan said as Martha handed him a plate of bacon and a cup of orange juice. “Did you want to call Lana and invite her over for breakfast,” Martha asked him. “I don’t think she’s awake yet,” Clark told them as he took a drink of his orange juice.

Clark was afraid that his parents might find out about his little “sleep over.” “Clark, you’re grandfather is coming over today, and I guess he has something for you,” Jonathan told him. Clark perked up when he heard this. “An early birthday present,” Clark asked. “He didn’t tell us, but it sounded big,” Martha told him as she took Jonathan’s plate and coffee cup and put it in the dishwasher. “I have to get back to work, so I expect to see you in a few minutes,” Jonathan said to him. “I’ll be there in a little bit,” Clark told his dad.
Lois came down the stairs, with her pink bunny slippers on and blue pajamas. She yawned as she poured herself coffee. Clark smiled at this. “What, is there something on me,” Lois asked as she looked at Clark and gave him a weird look.
“No, just that I’m surprised you still have those slippers, I thought you would have burned them already,” Clark said as he finished his orange juice and handed his plate to his mom. “Smallville, I had another nightmare last night, don’t start with me,” Lois said to him. “Let me guess, a man with a red cape again,” Clark said to her. “How’d you know,” Lois asked. “Because you were drawing some guy with a red cape in your little notebook,” Clark said to her. Clark tried to stop himself from laughing a bit. Lois gave him a stern look. “Smallville, I don’t have time for your games,” Lois said to him as she punched his shoulder blade. “By the way, I heard Arthur Curry is raising money for a fundraiser,” Lois said to him. “I think I read the same one, was the fundraiser called Aqua Swim for teens and the less fortunate,” Clark asked. “Yeah it is, I was wondering if you wanted to do it with me,” Lois asked. “Yeah, sure, I’ve been meaning to call Arthur for awhile, but haven’t found the time,” Clark explained to her. “What about you, have you talked to him,” Clark asked Lois. “No, I haven’t,” Lois said to him as she put her head down a bit. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to…,” Clark paused. “It’s alright Clark, don’t sweat it,” Lois said reassuring him. “Well, I’m going to get working on the farm, I’ll see you later,” Clark said to her. “Bye,” she said as she finished her coffee and put her cup in the dishwasher. “Lois, if you want you can take the day off,” Martha said to her. “Are you sure Mrs. Kent, I already planned on working for seven hours today,” Lois asked her. “No, no it’s alright, I’ve got Alice, Lana and Mike working today, and they’re basically running the joint,” Martha replied to her. “Lana’s working too,” Lois asked. “Yeah, I know she needs a job, so why not a simple one, she has plenty of experience,” Martha explained to her. “Why don’t you and Chloe go do something, or even Lucy,” Martha suggested. “Well, Lucy and the General are fighting again, and she’s grounded,” Lois replied. “And Chloe is with Pete until tonight, and the five of us were suppose to hang out,” Lois retorted. “Well, I guess I could squeeze you in for a couple of hours,” Martha said to her. “Thanks, Mrs. Kent,” Lois said to her. “Ya know, I may not always get along with Clark, but I can see where that warm feeling comes from, he gets it form you,” Lois said to her. “Thank you Lois,” Martha said giving her a hug. “I didn’t know my mother very well, but I would be glad if she was anything like you,” Lois told her. “I guess I should get to the Talon then,” Lois said to her, releasing her grip form Martha. “Bye Lois,” Martha said as she finished cleaning the dishes.

Clark super-sped towards the loft to see if Lana was still there. “Lana, Lana are you here,” he whispered. At first he didn’t get a response. “Clark,” Lana said with a soft voice. “I’m sorry, did I wake you,” Clark asked, sitting next to her. “No, I was just resting a little,” Lana said as Clark leaned down and kissed her. “I should get back to the Talon, your mom asked me if I wanted a job there, and I told her I would start at 9:00,” Lana said to him, pulling him down on the couch. “Its 7:30, I guess you should get home, you wouldn’t want to be late,” Clark said to her as he brushed a piece of hair from her eyes. “Did your parents see my new car in the woods?” Lana asked him. “No, I moved it a few feet back, so we won’t have to worry,” Clark told her. “Well, I should get going, I’m working a long shift,” Lana said as she kissed Clark. “I’ll see you tonight,” Clark asked. “Yeah, pick me up at 6:00, ok,” Lana said as she left the loft, hoping the Kent’s wouldn’t see her. “Lana, I didn’t know you were here,” Lois shouted out as she was about to start her truck. “Lois, shh,” Lana said quietly. “Oh, hi Lana, I didn’t know you stopped by,” Martha said as she walked outside. Lana was very nervous. “Are you here to see Clark?” “Actually, I came by to ask how many hours I was working, I kinda lost my schedule,” Lana said to her, thinking of the fastest excuse she could. “I have a copy, here ya go,” Martha said as she handed Lana a piece of paper. “Thanks Mrs. Kent,” Lana said, grabbing the piece of paper. “Lana, do you need a ride,” Lois asked. “Yeah, where is your new car Lana,” Martha asked. “It’s at, uhh,” Lana couldn’t think of an excuse. Martha saw Lana’s car pull up. Clark was driving it. Martha, Lois and Lana walked outside. “Clark, why are you driving Lana’s car,” Lois asked. Lana gave a signal to Lois to shut up. Yeah, like that would work. “Clark, is there something your not telling me,” Martha asked. If things couldn’t get any worse, Jonathan walked up to them. “What’s going on,” he asked. “Nothing, just driving Lana’s car up, it needed repairs,” Clark asked. “Clark, you don’t have to lie to us, we know what’s been going on,” Jonathan said to them. Lois tried not to laugh, but couldn’t help but giggle. Lana started to blush. “Dad, can we talk about this, later,” Clark suggested. “Yeah sure,” Jonathan said to them. Jonathan and Martha walked inside. “Well, I should get to the Talon,” Lois said, breaking the ice. “Do you need a ride, Lana,” Lois asked. “No, my car should be fine, right Clark,” Lana replied. “Yeah, it should be,” Clark said. Clark leaned to Lana and gave her a small peck on her lips. “Get a room already,” Lois shouted. Clark and Lana ignored her, and kept kissing. “Yeah, I’m going now,” Lois said as she got in her truck and backed up. “I’ll see you after work,” Clark asked as he took his lips off of Lana’s. “You bet,” Lana said as she gave Clark a hug. Clark waved to Lana as she backed up out of the driveway. Lana waved back, and blew him a kiss. End pf Chapter 23 part 1. Part 2 will be up soon!!!

Part 2
Clark went back inside and put on the news. “Dharma, the grizzly bear that escaped from the Smallville zoo has been captured, unharmed,” the newsman said. “In other news, officials have stated that there was a massacre in a warehouse late last night, and there are no suspects at this time,” he said. “One of the bodies has been identified, as Lionel Luthor, CEO of Luthorcorp,” the newsman said. Clark took all of this in. “Mom, Dad, come here,” he shouted to them. “What is it son,” Jonathan asked as he and Martha sat down. “Lionel Luthor’s body was found in a warehouse, and there were many other bodies as well,” Clark told them. “What about Lex, is he alright,” Martha asked. “I don’t know, they only said Lionel’s body was identified,” Clark explained. “Maybe you should go to the mansion and see what’s going on,” Jonathan said to him. “Yeah, I will,” Clark said to them as the phone rang. Martha answered it. “Clark, it’s Lex,” Martha said to him. Clark super-sped towards Martha, and grabbed the phone from the counter. “Lex, I was wondering what happened,” Clark said to him. “I’m not sure if you’ve heard the news, but I’ve been acquitted of all the charges,” Lex said to Clark. Clark didn’t believe him, but there was a chance that Lex was telling the truth. “Yeah, I just saw it now, I’m sorry to hear about your dad,” Clark told him. “Why, he always pushed me to get what he wants, he got what was coming to him,” Lex said to him. Clark was astonished at what Lex said about his own father. “Lex, why don’t I come to the mansion and we can talk about it,” Clark suggested. “Sure, come over when you can,” Lex said as he hung up. “What’s wrong, Clark,” Martha asked. “Lex said Lionel got what he deserved, and I don’t even think he’s sad about it,” Clark told them. “Clark, I want you to be careful,” Jonathan said to him. “I will, I just hope Lex didn’t have anything to do with Lionel’s death,” Clark said to them as he super-sped out of his house and headed towards the mansion. “Lex, what happened,” Clark said as he stormed into his office. “I love your entrance Clark, it almost seems like your accusing me of something,” Lex said to him. “Where were you last night,” Clark asked. “I was at the warehouse, and things got out of hand,” Lex said as he grinned a bit. “How can you think this is funny, your dad’s dead, and there are so many other people that were murdered,” Clark said to him. “I killed them Clark,” Lex told him, poured two glasses of scotch, and handed one to Clark. Clark was confused, but took the scotch anyway. “I killed them in self defense, and even though I hated my dad, I tried to protect him, but I was too late,” Lex explained to him. Clark didn’t believe a word of it. “You’re lying, just tell me the truth,” Clark told him as he put his hand on his shoulder. “I have always been honest with you Clark, you’re the one who hasn’t been honest,” Lex said as he turned around to face Clark. “What do you mean,” Clark asked. “I know you have been lying to me about that spaceship I found a year ago, and about the caves,” Lex told him. “Lex. Your theories about me do not make any sense,” Clark told him. “Then why don’t you explain it to me,” Lex said to him. “Clark, I know you were in the caves during the meteor shower, and something gave you protection,” Lex told him. “So tell me Clark, what’s the secret behind those caves,” Lex asked. Clark stood there, not knowing what to say. “Lex, I told you I wasn’t anywhere near the caves,” Clark explained “Fine, if you won’t be honest with me, then get out, and don’t come back,” Lex said to him. “Lex, I…,” “You what Clark, what excuse do you have for me this time, you just happened to be in the caves, and you happened to be there when I found the spaceship after someone stole it from me,” Lex shouted at him. “You’re just like your father,” Clark told him. Lex put his glass down, and walked to Clark. “ Lex swung at Clark. Seeing it coming, Clark grabbed Lex’s hand in midair when it was about a foot away from his face. Clark pushed Lex to the ground, holding his arm. “Let me go, Clark,” Lex told him. Clark let him go. “The one thing my father told me that I didn’t believe was that I couldn’t trust anybody, I thought he was trying to trick me,” Lex said. “But he was right, I can’t even trust you,” Lex said. “Get out of my house,” Lex said as Clark let go of his hand. “Are you deaf, get out,” Lex shouted at him. “Good-bye Lex,” Clark said as he walked out of the office and headed home. Lex sat back down, and thought to himself. Why couldn’t he be honest with me? Why did he have to lie all the time? Lex pulled out his cell phone, and called Lana. “Lana, can you come over to the mansion after your shift,” Lex asked. “Sure, is everything ok,” Lana asked. “Yeah, we just need to talk,” Lex said to her as he closed his phone.

CHAPTER 24

Meanwhile, at the Talon--
PG-13 for a little bit of sexual references/innuendo
“Miss, could I have a refill,” a man reading a paper asked Lana. “Sure, I’ll be right there,” Lana said as she put the dishes in the dishwasher. “And this was suppose to be a fun summer,” Lana said to Lois as she brushed passed her. “Yeah, working with the customers at the front is so much better,” Lois replied. Lana smiled a bit. “I don’t mean to be rude, but did you really sleep over at the Kent’s today,” Lois asked. Lana stood still for a few seconds. “I’m sorry, that was rude, and it’s not my business,” Lois said to her, regretting what she asked. “Lois, I know you know about what me and Clark have done,” Lana said to her. “Ahh, miss, more coffee,” the man repeated to her. “Right with you sir,” Lana said as she turned back to Lois. “I know, I just didn’t know that Smallville had sleepovers,” Lois said joking. “Plus, Chloe called me last night and said that Pete might be traumatized,” Lois said laughing. Lana couldn’t help but laugh. “Yeah, that was pretty funny,” Lana said, not realizing she had a customer waiting.

The man walked up to her with his cup. “I could go to a Metropolis Starbucks and get professional coffee, but I decided to try small town coffee, and the service is for crap,” the man said as he slammed the cup on the table. “If you have a complaint, you can fill out a card,” Lana told him. “So now you try and insult me, what is wrong with this little Kans-@$$ town,” he asked. At that moment, a few jocks stood up, ready to defend their town. “We don’t want any trouble, but we all agree and think you should leave,” one of the jocks said to him. “First of all, I didn’t ask for your opinion, and second, I’m the health and service inspector,” the man said to them. The jocks, not wanting to get Lana in trouble, sat back down. “Now, are any of you Lana Lang,” the man asked. “Yeah, that would be me,” Lana said as she raised her hand a bit, and quickly put it down. “Well Mrs. Lang, I am Ronnie Corl, and it seems that the Talon has been losing a lot of Lex Luthor’s money,” Ronnie told her. “Lex is a multibillionaire, I don’t see how losing a few thousand dollars would do a lot to his trust fund,” Lois said aloud. “Well, it’s enough where Lex can now get rid of his partnership, leaving the Talon to Miss Lang here, and Mrs. Martha Clark Kent,” Ronnie said to them. “I don’t understand, Lex can’t do that to Mrs. Kent,” Lana said to him. “Well, if you can give this note to Mrs. Kent, I would be very obliged,” he said to Lana as he handed the sealed envelope to her and walked away. Lana looked at it, and wondered what it was.

“Are you going to open it,” Lois asked. “No, it’s Mrs. Kent’s, I’ll wait for her to open it,” Lana said as she put the envelope in her pocket. “I should get back to cleaning the tables,” Lana said to her. Lana grabbed a cloth and soaked it in water, and walked to the closest table to her. While cleaning the table, she thought of Clark. (Flashback) “Do you know what today is,” Clark asked Lana. “Our six month anniversary,” Lana guessed. “Correct, and I think you deserve a sponge bath,” Clark told her. Lana smiled, and started to take her clothes off slowly, teasing Clark. After she stripped off her clothes, Clark already had the bath ready for her. “Come on in, it’s just how you like it,” Clark said to her. She slid into the tub, taking in how good the warm water felt on her. Clark smiled. “Are you ready,” Clark asked he dropped the sponge in the tub. “Whenever you are, Mr. Kent,” Lana said to him. For some reason, Clark loved it when she called him, “Mr. Kent.” As Clark rubbed the sponge over Lana’s naked body, she wrapped her arms around his chest and started to kiss him wildly. “Come on in Mr. Kent,” Lana said as she pulled him in the tub. Still wearing his shirt and shorts, Clark climbed in next to her. As he kissed her, he took off his shirt, while Lana untied his shorts. Clark stood up fast to take his shorts off, not wanting to miss what was coming next. The two kissed for awhile in the tub. Back to reality.
“Lana, are you alright, you spaced out for like two minutes,” Lois asked her. Lana was in a daze, and didn’t realize she was day dreaming. “Sorry, I guess I wasn’t paying attention,” Lana said to her.

Lana got back to work when Henry Small and three kids walked through the door. “Mr. Small,” Lana said surprised. “Lana, you can call me dad,” he told her. “I want you to meet you’re brothers and sister,” Henry told her. “This is Jack, my oldest,” he said as he put his arm behind his son. “And this is Colleen, and the little one is Arliss,” Henry said as he introduced his youngest child. “Kids, this is your older sister, Lana,” Henry said to them. Lana was delighted to finally meet her siblings. “I don’t like her,” Jack said aloud. Lana was hurt by this. “Jack, that is no way to talk to your sister,” Henry told him. “Jack, I know you don’t know me, but I really want to get to know you,” Lana said to him. “I guess I could give it a try,” Jack said to her. “I always wanted a little sister,” Lana said moving to Colleen. “You have no idea what it’s like to live with two brothers,” Colleen said to her. “Lois, I’m going to take my break, alright,” Lana said to her. “Ok, I’ll let Mrs. Kent know when she gets in,” Lois said to her. The five of them sat down at a table. And Lana removed her apron. “How old are all of you,” Lana asked. “I’m sixteen,” Jack answered. “I’m fourteen and Arliss is nine,” Colleen answered for her little brother. “He’s kind of shy,” Henry explained to Lana. “Well, so am I, so we should get along just fine,” Lana said to him. Arliss put his head into his dad’s arm and hid from Lana. “I want mommy,” Arliss told his dad. “I don’t know when she’s coming back Arliss,” Henry answered, acting as if Arliss asked this a lot.

“She left a few months ago, and I haven’t heard from her,” Henry said to Lana. “I’m sorry,” Lana said to him. “It’s not your fault,” he said to her. Lois walked over to the five of them, and withdrew a notepad from her pocket. “Can I get you anything,” Lois asked. “I’ll have a white chocolate latte, and maybe a small orange juice for Arliss,” Henry said. “And you,” Lois asked Jack. “Same as whatever my dad ordered,” Jack replied. Jack stared at Lois for awhile. She started to notice after awhile. “What about you sweetie,” Lois asked Colleen. “Strawberry frappucino,” she answered. “Ok, I’ll have your drinks in just a bit,” Lois said as she walked towards the latte machine. “Jack, stop staring, it’s rude,” Henry said to his son. “Jack likes the waitress,” Colleen teased. “Shut up,” Jack said to her. “Knock it off you too,” Henry said to them. “So what are the four of you doing today, it’s kind of early,” Lana asked. “Well, since their mother left, I have to take the kids on business trips when I can’t get a babysitter,” Henry explained. “This also gives me a chance to get to know them better,” he said. Lois came back with a tray full of drinks. “Thank you miss,” Henry said. “There ya go junior,” Lois said as she smiled at Jack. Lois walked to another table and took off all of the trays and coffee cups the previous customers had kindly left her.

Jack got up from his seat, and walked up to the front counter, where Lois was. “Hi, is there something I can help you with,” Lois asked kindly. “Yeah there is, there is this waitress that I want to ask out, could you please get her for me,” Jack asked. “Sure, could you tell me her name,” Lois asked. Jack looked at her name tag closely, with Lois noticing. “Yeah, her name is Lois,” Jack said to her with complete confidence. Lois was surprised to hear this. Not knowing how to break it to him, Lois thought of an excuse to let him down easy. “Look, I think I’m too old for you, but there is a waitress, Alice, that I believe is your age,” Lois said to him. She could tell he was hurt. “Ok, I’ll talk to her then,” Jack said as he walked over to Alice.
At that moment, Martha walked in the door, “Mrs. Kent, a guy came by earlier and told me to give you this note,” Lana said as she pulled out the envelope from her pocket. “What’s it say,” Lois asked curiously. “Lex is shutting down the Talon next week,” Martha said to them. “I thought he couldn’t do that, it’s in the contract,” Lois said. “If he’s anything like his father, then he’ll use whatever resources and methods of getting what he wants and whenever he wants,” Martha told them. “But there must be some reason for this, I mean he wouldn’t just close it down for the hell of it,” Lois said. “I have an idea what might have happened, but I shouldn’t tell the two of you until I get more facts and I can back it up,” Martha said to them. Lois and Lana looked at each other, trying to figure out what she could possibly mean without asking her.

CHAPTER 25

Martha sat down and read the letter again.

Dear Martha,
I am sorry to inform you, but I have to shut down the Talon. I don’t feel like paying for the business, with you working there. As you may know, me and Clark have not been getting along. I really wanted to be his friend, but if you work at the Talon, I will be reminded of him, plus I’m sure he will be there occasionally. Whatever money I make when I sell the Talon, you can have all of it. If you wish to use me as a reference, then you are out of luck. I’m sorry about the Talon. LEX LUTHOR

Martha was stunned. She never would have thought that Lex and Clark fighting would make Lex do something this irrational. “Mrs. Kent, are you alright,” Lois asked as she put a coffee on the table next to her. “Thank you miss,” the man said to her as he grabbed his coffee. “You’re welcome,” Lois replied as she sat down by Martha. “Yeah, I’ll be fine, I think we should close the Talon early today,” Martha suggested. “How about around noon,” Lois asked. “Yeah, that’s fine,” Martha said to her. “Listen up people, the Talon is closing at noon, and drinks are half price,” Lois said aloud.

Jonathan was bailing hay when Clark super-sped home. “What’s the matter son,” Jonathan asked. “Dad, you were right about Lex,” Clark started. “What do you mean,” Jonathan asked. “He accused me of stealing the spaceship, when it was really Professor Fine, or Braniac whatever he’s called,” Clark explained. “I couldn’t tell him a dead guy stole his spaceship after I found it in the woods,” Clark told him. “And I know he killed his father and his brother, I’m not sure about the other people in the warehouse,” Clark told him. “Maybe you should do some investigating,” Jonathan told him.
“I was thinking the same thing, but I’m not sure if Lex has cameras in there,” Clark told him. “Maybe you should wear a disguise, like a mask, or change your hair,” Jonathan suggested to him. “Change my hair, like color it,” Clark asked. “I don’t know, I would buy a mask, kind of like when you were in Metropolis two years ago,” Jonathan told him. Clark looked down when he said this. “I’m sorry son, I didn’t mean to bring up the past,” Jonathan said as he put his hand on Clark’s shoulder. Before Clark could go to town and look for a mask, am old blue truck pulled up on the Kent farm. “Who do you suppose that is,” Jonathan asked. Using his telescopic vision, Clark could tell who it is.

“Arthur,” Clark said as A.C. got out of his truck. “It’s good to see you Clark,” A.C. said to him. “I’m sorry I haven’t kept in touch that much, being an oceanographer can be quite time consuming,” A.C. said to him. “I stopped by to ask if you’re doing the swim in a few weeks,” A.C. asked. “Yeah, me and Lois are doing it,” Clark told him. “How is she,” A.C. asked. “Stubborn, rude, annoying, loud, the usual,” Clark told him with a grin. “Why don’t you come in for a little bit,” Clark said to him. “I’ll talk to you later, Dad,” Clark said as he and Arthur walked to the house. “So, what’s new with you,” Clark asked as he grabbed two cokes from the fridge. “Thanks, uh not much actually,” A.C. answered. “I met Bruce Wayne a few months ago, he’s a billionaire in Gotham City,” A.C. told him. “He’s a nice guy, kind of creepy,” A.C. said to him. “What about you, are you still with Lana or have you moved on to Lois like I suggested awhile ago,” A.C. said to him laughing a bit. “Very funny,” Clark said. “You wanna go for a swim, I’ll let you lose by only a few inches,” A.C. said to him. “How about we have a race, like running,” Clark told him with a grin on his face. “Uh-huh,” A.C. sighed. A.C. saw a red blur go past him, and thought it might be Clark, but he noticed Clark wasn’t wearing anything red at all. “What was that,” A.C. asked. “An old friend,” Clark said as he super-sped towards the blur. The two ran all over the farm, with Clark behind a couple of feet.

Bart super-sped into the kitchen and stopped. “Still slow, aren’t ya Clark,” Bart said as he grabbed himself a coke. “Don’t you think it’s rude to come into someone’s house without knocking,” A.C. asked Bart. “What crawled up your butt,” Bart asked. “Nothing, I just have common sense, something you seem to be lacking,” A.C. said to him with a laugh. Bart super-sped and punched A.C. on his face. He stopped for a little bit to laugh, and A.C. came at him and punched Bart straight in the nose. Clark broke it up by throwing A.C. into the wall, and held Bart down. “Do you guys know each other,” Clark asked. “Yeah I know him, he broke into a research facility and stole thirty thousand dollars of marine biology equipment,” A.C. said to him. Clark looked at Bart sternly, and Bart smiled and shrugged. “That was months ago, I gave half of the money to families that were affected by hurricane Kari, or whatever they named it,” Bart told him. “Hurricane Katrina,” A.C. said to him. “What about the other half,” Clark asked. “I used it for food and hotels,” Bart explained. “Ok, so I bought an MP3 player, but I also got a job last month,” Bart told Clark as Clark helped him up and got an ice pack. “I don’t believe him,” A.C. said to him. “Shut up, you don’t know me,” Bart said to him. “Look guys, while you’re in my house, you will act civil, now shake hands,” Clark said with a small grin. The two shook hands, and A.C. squeezed Bart’s hand. “Knock it off,” Clark told him. The two sat down. “Clark, about that Wayne guy,” A.C. said to him. “Are you talking about Bruce Wayne, the billionaire,” Bart asked interrupting. “Well, thanks for interrupting, but yes that Wayne,” A.C. told him.

“His company, Wayne Enterprises is donating fifty million dollars to the charity,” A.C. said. “Wow, that’s more than Lex is donating,” Clark told him. “Well it is a hot day, and I could go for a swim,” A.C. said to him. “Why don’t we go to Florida,” Bart suggested. “That’s a good idea, you guys can run, and I’ll swim there,” A.C. said to them. “To Florida, are you serious,” Clark asked. “Yeah let’s go,” Bart said. “Ok, but I need to be back by 4:00 to get ready,” Clark told them. “Sounds good, what are we waiting for,” A.C. said them. “Where are you going to start Arthur,” Clark asked. “Crater lake, and I do know my way around the ocean,” A.C. said to him with a grin. “Alright, I’ll see you in an hour or tow,” Clark said to him. “I’ll be there sooner than that,” A.C. said as he dove in the lake. Clark watched as A.C. swam fast, and ripples vanished as A.C. dove deeper. Bart ran up to Clark and tagged him. “Ready farm boy,” Bart said to him. Clark took off before Bart could, thinking that would beat him. “Oh, he thinks that will help, well I’ll show him,” Bart said as he jogged for a little bit, and then super-sped to Clark within about ten seconds. Clark was already 17 miles away, but Bart caught up easily. “Come on slow poke, let’s go,” Bart said as he ran a few feet in front of Clark. Clark was still amazed that there was someone faster than him.

After Lois, Lana and Martha closed the Talon, Lana told them she was going to see Clark. “A little early don’t ya think,” Lois said to her. “It won’t be for long,” Lana said to her as she left the Talon and went to her new car. Lana tried to start the car, but had no luck. “Lana is there something wrong with your car?,” Lois asked her. “It’s not running,” Lana said to her. “Why don’t you take my truck, I’ll get a ride form Mrs. Kent,” Lois told her. “Thanks, are you sure,” Lana asked. “Yeah, I’ll be at the Kent’s in an hour anyway,” Lois said to her. At least this one wasn’t actually Lana’s. Lois gave her keys to Lana, and Lana walked to the truck. She started it, and headed for the mansion.
“Lex, what’s going on, why are you closing the Talon,” Lana asked as she stormed into his office. “Lana, I’m a little busy, I thought you would have called,” Lex said to her. Lana looked at two men who were sitting on his couch. “This is Oliver Queen, of Queen Industries, and this is Jack Hefferman, who works at Luthorcorp,” Lex said as he introduced them. “Can we talk later guys, this is kind of important,” Lex said to them. “Lex, if this is a bad time, then I can come by later,” Lana said to him. “It’s alright, we were done anyway, at least for now,” Lex explained. The two men left the office, and Lana walked closer to Lex. “I’m guessing you’re hear to ask my side of it,” Lex asked her. “What side Lex,” Lana asked. “I guess you’re boyfriend hasn’t been open with you, especially about last night,” Lex said to her. “He accused me of killing my father and brother, and the other men in that warehouse,” Lex explained to her. Lana was stunned to hear this. She didn’t believe Clark would act so irrational. “Clark wouldn’t do that, whatever problems you two are having, don’t try to get me involved,” Lana said to him. “Do you believe me Lana,” Lex asked. “Believe what Lex,” Lana asked. “That I didn’t kill my father and brother, and those other innocent men,” Lex asked her. “Of course I do Lex, what kind of friend would I be if I didn’t,” Lana said to him. Lex walked up to her and kissed her. Lana slapped him. “What are you doing Lex, trying to make me fall for you,” Lana asked. “I wanted to know how you felt about me, I guess there isn’t anything between us, except for Clark,” Lex exclaimed. “Lex, have you gone mad?”
“No, Lana, but things are very clear to me,” Lex said to her. “I can’t trust anyone, not my father, not Clark, and know you,” Lex told her. “I know you’re lying about believing me,” Lex said to her. “It’s alright, I mean like father like son right,” Lex said. Lana started to leave the office. “Before you go, I want you to know something about your boyfriend,” Lex said to her. Lana stopped as she put her hand on the door knob. “Clark attacked me Lana, he hit me so hard, I never felt a harder hit,” Lex told her. “My chest and face still hurt,” Lex said. “Why would he do that,” Lana asked as she walked over to him. Lana didn’t notice until know the bruise Lex had by his eye, and Lex started to take his shirt off. Lana looked at the bruised ribs. She put her hands on them, and Lex whined in pain. “Clark did this to you,” Lana said to him. Lex nodded his head in agreement. END OF CHAPTER 25

Hey, do you guys remeber this story? (LOL) My PC is fixed, for now. I was able to write chapter 26 over, and I think this one is better than the original. I also started chapter 27, and should be done in a few days. So, if you want me to post chapter 26, post a comment that says so please. Thank you.

CHAPTER 26

Clark and Bart arrived in Florida in just a few minutes. Before they left, A.C. told them he would be at the Dariot Jo beach.
So the two of them super-sped to the beach, and decided to take a swim while they waited. Clark dove in first, and Bart followed shortly after. Clark wasn’t looking where he was going, and bumped into a girl. “Hey watch--,” the girl cut herself off when she saw Clark come out of the water. She smiled at him. “Sorry, I didn’t hurt you did I,” Clark asked. “No, I’m fine, you just scared me, that’s all,” the girl said to Clark. “Hey Clark, who’s the beauty,” Bart said as he swam up next to them. The girl was embarrassed at his remark, and Clark nudged Bart’s shoulder kind of hard. “I don’t know, I bumped into her, and I didn’t get a chance to get her name,” Clark said. “I’m Kelly Patyr,” Kelly said to Clark as she extended her hand and shook his hand. “I’m Bart,” Bart said as he walked between them and shook her hand. “Hi Bart,” Kelly said to him as she laughed at his lame excuse of being hit on. “Do you live around here,” Bart asked. “Yeah, I do actually,” Kelly answered. “I’m having a party tonight, do you guys want to come,” Kelly asked. “I have plans with my girlfriend tonight, but Bart is free,” Clark said to her. Kelly wanted Clark to come, and was hurt that he had a girlfriend.
“Well, if you change your mind Clark, I’m at 7390 W. Axel Street, so come on by if you can make it, and invite your girlfriend if you want,” Kelly said to him. “I’ll keep it in mind,” Clark told her. “I have to go, bye,” Kelly said as she waved good-bye and swam away. “Clark, she wanted you man,” Bart said to him. “I’m dating Lana, I am not a cheater,” Clark told him. “Yeah you’re right, but at least one of us is single,” Bart said with a smile. “Where do you think Arthur is,” Clark asked Bart. “I don’t know, and to tell you the truth, the guy has an attitude problem,” Bart told him. “Bart, don’t get started on attitude problems,” Clark said to him. “The guy needs to lighten up,” Bart said. “Bart, knock it off alright, I don’t want the two of you to start fighting again,” Clark said to him. “Clark, what is that in the water,” Bart asked as a fin seemed to be getting closer to the two of them.

Meanwhile at the the Sullivan house,
“So Pete, have you found a job yet,” Gabe asked. “All the places I have applied for, the hardware store, grocery store, even on farms no one is hiring,” Pete said to him. “What about the Talon,” Chloe asked. “They don’t have room for another person, unless someone quits or gets fired,” Pete said to Chloe.
“You could always be a janitor at Luthorcorp,” Gabe said with a chuckle. “That’s alright, I’ll find a job eventually,” Pete said to him. “Well, I have to go to Metropolis again, but I’ll be back later tonight,” Gabe said to them. “Bye daddy,” Chloe said as she got up to give him a hug. “Bye Pete,” Gabe said to him. “See you later Mr. Sullivan,” Pete said as Gabe walked out the door. “So, we have the whole house to ourselves, for nine hours,” Chloe said to him. “Did you have something in mind,” Pete asked. “Only about three things,” Chloe said to him. “First, some mint chocolate ice cream, and order a movie on Pay per view,” Chloe said to him as she kissed Pete. “What’s the third,” Pete asked with a smile on his face.

LUTHOR MANSION-
Lana left the mansion, confused and sad. Would Clark really do that to Lex? Is Lex lying to me, or is he telling the truth? If he’s ling, how did he get those bruises? Lana walked to Lois’ truck and started it up. “You wanted to see me sir,” a tall man with a thick voice asked Lex. “Yes I did,” Lex said to him.
“Did you remove the evidence from the warehouse like I asked,” Lex asked. “Yes I did dir, the police will not be able to trace the murders to you,” he told Lex. “Good, now why don’t you have a drink with me,” Lex asked. “Sure thing boss.”
Lex watched as Paul drank his scotch like it was soda. Suddenly, Paul started to feel sick. “Are you alright Paul, you don’t look well,” Lex said to him. Paul started to gasp for air, and fell to the ground. “Good work son,” Lionel told Lex as he raised his glass of scotch to Lex. “The poison does work pretty fast, doesn’t it,” Lex said to his father. “I’m proud of you,” Lionel said as he faded away. Lex looked at Paul’s dead body, and walked right over it and turned the T.V. on.

Kent Farm-
Martha found Jonathan lying on the couch, sleeping during a football game. Not wanting to disturb him, Martha quietly and slowly rested her body on top of Jonathan’s. She scratched Jonathan’s chest as she started to drift off. She started to dream about having her own kids. “Mommy mommy, John is being mean to me,” a little girl said to her. “Tell me what you’re big brother did to you Chrissy,” Martha said to her daughter. “He took my dolly away,” Chrissy said to her. “He did, well why don’t we get it back,” Martha said to her. “Ok mommy,” The two walked to John’s room and knocked on John’s door. “Honey, did you take Chrissy’s doll?” “No,” John said to her. “Do you want me to get dad up here,” Martha asked him. “Here take it,” John said as he handed Chrissy the doll. Martha had a smile on her face, and Jonathan woke up and looked at her sleeping peacefully on his chest. “Martha, honey come on, I have to get back to work,” Jonathan said to her. Martha woke up and smiled back at him. “What were you dreaming about,” Jonathan asked her. “About having kids of our own, what they would be like, and how we would raise them,” Martha said to Jonathan as she sat up. “Honey, we’ve been to all the doctors, and they have all said that you can’t conceive,” Jonathan said to her as he put his arm around her and kissed her hair. “Thank you for not leaving me,” Martha said to him. Jonathan was taken back by this. “Do you think I married you so I could have kids,” Jonathan asked. “I married you for your bosom,” Jonathan said with a short laugh. “Honey, I married you because I love you, not because I wanted kids,” Jonathan said to her, rubbing her back. “Besides, we have Clark, and all of his friends that stay here for awhile,” Jonathan said to her. “I know, but I always wanted my own kids, ya know,” Martha said as she began to cry. “Honey, honey, we can’t do anything about that, I’m sorry,” Jonathan told her. “What about Jor-El,” Martha asked. “We can trust him know,” Martha said to him. Jonathan took his arm off her. “I don’t trust him that much to give us a child, remember the last time,” Jonathan said to her. “That was nobody’s fault, not yours, not Clark’s, and not Jor-El’s,” Martha said to him as she stood up. “He killed our baby, and made our son run away, I don’t care how nice he is know,” Jonathan yelled at her. “Jor-El and Lara love Clark, and they even said they were proud of us that we raised their son to the best he can be,” Martha said to him. “We’re not going to Jor-El, not until Clark can confirm he is a good person,” Jonathan said to her.

Ok, I said there would be four chapters after 26. I may have a 31st chapter. But, the last 3( or 4) will be very climatic. Everything you've waited to see will happen. These are the chapters to read. There will be fights like in the O.C., maybe better. A hero makes a choice. A new destiny awaits. A friend makes a sacrifce.
And I aie a salad for dinner tonight. It was really good. Lots of Ranch, oh yeah. Stay tuned for chapter 27!!!!!!!!

CHAPTER 27

“Clark, get it man,” Bart said to him panicking. Clark dove under, and looked at the shark coming towards them. “Hell yeah, I gotta see this,” Bart said as he dove under, staying a few feet behind Clark. Clark super-sped towards it, but something hit him, and Clark went flying backwards. It was A.C, and Bart was shocked. Bart looked in awe as A.C. super-sped to the shark. He grabbed the shark, and Bart was waiting for A.C. to throw it to the surface. But, he would be soon disappointed. Clark, after stopping from the blast that A.C. threw at him, super-sped to where A.C. was. A.C. looked at Clark at he petted the shark, sending soothing thoughts to it. Bart quickly super-sped to the shark, and looked at A.C., with a look like he wants to pet the shark. A.C. nodded his head, and Bart put his hand on the sharks’ nose. After a few minutes, A.C. sent the shark away, and the three swam to the surface. “That was totally awesome man, how’d you do that,” Bart asked with enthusiasm. “If I told you all my secrets, there would be no mystery,” A.C. said to him. “I thought I was the only one who was faster than Clark, but you’re stronger too?” Bart asked with a very fast tone in his voice. Clark and A.C. looked at each other. “Why don’t we go to shore so we can talk and relax,” A.C. suggested. The three looked around to see who was watching, and they super-sped to shore.

“Underwater, my powers are stronger than Clark’s, but he has many more abilities than I do,” A.C. replied. “How did you do that water bubble thingy,” Bart asked. “Bart!” Clark said to him loudly. “What, I just want to know where his powers come from,” Bart asked. “I’m sorry, he can be a little annoying at times,” Clark said to A.C. “It’s alright, I inherited my powers from my birth father, that’s what my mother told me,” A.C. said. “I come from a place called Atlantis, it’s very deep below the surface,” A.C. explained. “Isn’t Atlantis gone,” Clark asked. “No, my people were attacked by this thing that wanted to destroy Atlantis, but my ancestor stopped him destroying it completely.
“So, you’re telling me there are others like you,” Clark said to him. “No, I am the only one that possesses these powers that I know of,” A.C. told him. “Kind of like Clark, who’s not exactly from here,” Bart said. “Any of you guys going to that chick’s party tonight?” Bart asked. “I’m not, I have plans with Lana,” Clark said to him. “What about you, A.C.,” Bart asked. “Yeah, I’ll go, I just have some errands to do before I go, but yeah I’ll make it,” A.C. told him. “Clark, can you spot me some cash, I’m going to get a soda,” A.C. asked. “I didn’t bring any money, I didn’t want it to get wet,” Clark said to him. “Clark, there’s always my old way of doing things,” Bart said to him. “You’re not stealing the soda,” Clark told him.

Lana called the Kent farm, and Martha answered. “Hello,” she said when she picked up the phone. “Hi Mrs. Kent, is Clark there,” Lana asked her. “No, he went off with Bart and A.C. awhile ago,” Martha said to her. “I’ll try his cell phone then, thank you Mrs. Kent,” Lana said to her. “You’re welcome Lana, anytime,” Martha said to her as she hung up the phone. Lana tried Clark’s cell phone, but didn’t get an answer. “Where is he,” Lana asked herself. Lana drove back to the Talon, thinking Clark would leave her a note or something. On her way there, she saw a familiar car behind her. She looked in her mirror, and looked at the license plate, and noticed that one of Lex’s bodyguards had that plate. Lana sped up, and when she got to the Talon, she got out of her car quickly, and ran inside. A few minutes later, someone knocked on the door. Frantic, Lana asked who it was. “My name is Paul, and I am here for your protection,” he said to her. “Protect me from who,” Lana asked him. “From Clark Kent, he is very dangerous, you saw the bruises on Lax,” Paul said to her. “I don’t know what happened to Lax, but I want to hear Clark’s side of it,” Lana said to him. “There is a warrant for his arrest, and Lax wants me to protect you until he is in jail,” Paul said to her. “I’m not letting you in,” Lana said to him. “I’m coming in whether you want me to or not,” Paul said as he slammed his body against the door. Lana ran from the door and into her bathroom. She pulled out her cell phone, and dialed Chloe’s number. “Hello,” Chloe answered. “Chloe, there is a man that is working for Lax and trying to get into my apartment,” Lana said to her. BAM! Paul was getting closer to breaking down the door. “I’m on my way Lana, and call the police,” Chloe said as she hung up. “What’s wrong with Lana,” Pete asked Chloe as he kissed her neck. Chloe loved it when Pete did this, and he knew it drove her crazy. “There’s a man who’s attacking Lana,” Chloe said to him. “Let’s go,” Pete said as he stood up from the couch. “There’s more, he’s working for Lax,” Chloe said to Pete. “See, none of you believed me that Lax was just like his father,” Pete said to her. “I’ll bet he had those men in the warehouse killed too, didn’t he,” Pete asked her. “I don’t know Pete, I don’t mess with the Authors, not since Lionel tried to kill me,” Chloe said to him. “Let’s just help Lana, and call Clark,” Pete said to her as he opened the door for Chloe. The two drove to the Talon, while Pete was calling Clark’s phone. “No answer, I don’t know where he is,” Pete said to her. “He must be miles away, I would think he could hear Lana,” Chloe said to Pete. “I think we should make some sort of signal for him, when there’s trouble,” Pete said. “Like what, a dog whistles,” Chloe laughed at him. ‘Maybe something with a high enough pitch that only Clark could hear,” Pete suggested. “Ok, but how would we make it,” Chloe asked. “I don’t know, maybe ask that Jimmy friend of yours that knows a lot about hi-tech stuff,” Pete asked. A few months ago, Chloe and Pete bumped into Jimmy Hatton, and it was very awkward for all of them. “I haven’t talked to him since we saw him at Club Atlantis,” Chloe said to Pete. “Ok, then I guess we’ll have to see if Clark can build such a device,” Pete said to her. The two got to the Talon, and saw the Mercedes parked next to Lana’s car. “Both cars are here, so that’s a good sign, I think,” Pete said to her. “Lana, where are you,” Chloe said as she walked in. BANG! BANG! Chloe and Pete heard two gunshots coming from Lana’s apartment. The two were hesitant to walk up there.
“Lana, I’m trying to help you, and so is Lax,” Paul said as he looked around the room for Lana. He saw that the bathroom door was closed, and quietly walked towards it. Pete decided to not wait anymore, and ran up to the apartment. “Pete,” Chloe said to him. “Get the hell away from her,” Pete said as he tackled Paul. The gun flew from his hand. Pete punched Paul a few times before Paul punched him in his side, and pushed him off. Paul went for the gun and Pete jumped on his back. Paul’s finger was a few inches from the gun and Pete started to hit the back of his head. Paul was able to throw Pete off again, and crawled to the gun. Just in time, Pete jumped on Paul, who was now on his backside. Pete tried to get Paul to drop the gun, but the gun shot off three times. Paul punched Pete’s face twice, and jumped out the window. Pete ran to the window, and saw Paul, laying there, but his wounds were healing very fast. “Chloe!” Lana screamed as she ran to her. Pete looked back, and saw Chloe’s side was bleeding. “Stay with me Chloe, you cheated death many times, this is nothing,” Pete said reassuring Lana and Chloe, as well as himself. Pete had doubt she could survive this kind of shot, he knows from his cousin who got hit by another hunter, and it was in the exact spot. “Pete, I love you,” Chloe said to him as she closed her eyes. “I’ll get an ambulance,” Lana said as she dialed the police. Pete sat there crying, wishing it was him in her position. “It’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have run up here, I should have known she would follow me,” Pete said. “Pete, you ran up here to protect me, this is not your fault,” Lana said as she hugged Pete. Pete’s tears went into Lana’s white shirt, and she took him off to put another shirt on. “The police will be here in a few minutes, along with an ambulance,” Lana said as she put her hand on his shoulder. Pete checked Chloe’s pulse. She was still breathing, but barely. “Where are you Clark,” Lana said to herself.

When I did spell check, it told me nothing was spelled wrong. I thought I looked over it. When I do spell check, it says Lex is not a word, and goes into Lax or other words, so I may have skimmed through too fast. Next thursday I will post the rest of the story. Thanks for all the comments. I know it's more than a week after this, but there will be 3 chapters, maybe four more.

Lex is completely evil now, and he will do anything to get what he wants. But what does he want more? Lana's love, or getting back at Clark?

Here's a small spoiler:
Chapter 28
"I never would have thought Lex would go so far," Lana told Pete. "I did, I've been telling you guys for years, but you never listened to me, until it was too late," Pete said to her, with anger in his tone of voice. "Pete, I talked to Lex before I came here, and he showed me bruises on his chest and a small one above his eye," Lana said to him. "Good, he deserves much more than that," Pete said to her. "He told me Clark did it in anger, and I'm not sure who to believe," Lana said to Pete. "Wha- how can you say that, Clark has done so much for us, and you're doubting him," Pete said to Lana, now yelling at her. "Pete, I--," Lana was cut off by Pete. "Lana, you can't seriously take Lex's side, especially over what happened," Pete said to her.
