Chapter Text
Lana is used to many things living in Smallville, all the crazy weird thing that people can get institutional for was just another day in Smallville for her. Sleeping next to the boy she had always loved and not being able to sleep was a new thing. Her sleepless nights are her fault, she knows that. while Clark was frozen by Jor-el for disobeying him and freeing Zor-el. she was playing house with the one that took his face and replaced him and to make matters worse she told Clark"life was easier with him" bizarro never looked at her with disappoint and he opened up, to find out all of that was a lie, it was adjustment. She loves Clark and for the first time in a long time she wasn’t sure how they are going to come back from this but she knows they have too. Her and Clark were meant to be, if she knows something in this crazy world of hers, it was that.
She hears the noise before Clark even woke up, she looks towards him “What do you hear?” he was in hero mode now she could tell; he was alter, there was no discomfort or awkwardness when he replied to her “I don’t know, stay here” in a blink of eye he was gone. She didn’t know why he even bothered anymore, she followed him down fast in order to catch up to him but she didn't need to go far, he was standing on the last stairs, just standing and staring. “Clark” she shouted worried for him “Clark” he didn't turn around, she knows there many things in this that could hurt him but she has never seen him so still.
She walks down the stair to see what had his attention.It was like a disco ball at the bottom of the stair, there was two figures but it was like they were having problems materializing, she has see enough magic to know what it looks like but Clark didn't seem bothered as if he can see something she couldn't. “Can you tell who it is?” there was too many lights bouncing around and focusing on the bright light was impossible for her eyes but not for his, just as he opened his month reply to her question the disco lights started to dim until only the two figures remained.
Sometimes eyes played tricks on you. seeing something just because you want to see it. Watching Clark's cousin Kara standing there, looking stronger than she has ever seen her before was unbelievable she was wearing a double shades of blue long sleeved coat with the interior bright red as well as the top of the shoulders, the chest, the hem of the sleeves and the bottom. Under it she wore a tight suit of which are only visible pants, that are of the same two shades of blue between the groin and outer thighs, she completes her look with a pair of kneelength red boots and a yellow stone as a belt also she had the symbol of the House of El printed on her chest. Her hair was longer than the last time but Kara Kent, didn’t look like herself anymore she looked like a real live superhero.
“Kara!” Clark was happy to see his cousin, since he has been back, he searched for his cousin but he has had no luck tracking her. He blames himself for releasing his mom and her father. Jor-el didn't know what happened to her and all the worry lines he had seem to disappear when he saw his cousin. The happiness was short lived however when Clark saw who the second figure on the floor was “Lois, Kara what happened?” Kara gently grabs Lois and carries her towards the living room. Lana and Clark had no choice but to follow.
“Kara” Clark seems to ask "Whats going on" just by saying her name, his cousin seems used to the idea. “She is in danger and the past is the only safe place for her” Kara has her arms crossed standing over Lois as if she was protecting her.
“The past?” Lana asked “are you saying you two are from the future?” that can't be possibly, no matter how weird the world was, there was no such thing as time travel. Her brain tries to explain it way but is hard to explain something way when Kara was standing in front of her wearing knee high red boots and a superhero suit. “2018 to be expect” she moves away from Lois, moving closer to her cousin her coat blowing behind her as if it was part of her body, something she is used to, this isn’t the first time she wore it.
“Her life is in danger and we can’t protect her and fight at the same time so i brought her to the one man i know who will protect her with his life” Kara's eyes connects with her cousin. She meant him, Lana knows in her heart but Kara seems to know something her and Clark are not ware of “Clark” she didn’t say it out loud but she knew that both of them heard her super hearing. “I know is lot to ask and that you want to spend all you’re free time looking for me in this time but i will find my way back to you Clark but now you need to protect Lois for me please” Clark smiles, not the half smile he normally gives but a full one “as long as i have known you, you never called me Clark” Kara nodded “I get used it with time, I have to go”
“Kara you can’t just leave, what do I tell her” Kara glanced down at the couch where Lois was still passed out “Knowing her, she will be too busy shouting to ask questions, I will be back for her or I will send someone” she moved away from Clark and the couch, standing as far back form them as she can, her eyes find Clark “Thank You Kal-El” she teased with a smile before she threw what appeared to be a small bottle at her feet and the disco lights were back but it was so much more intense now, Lana had to turn her head and close her eyes but she can still somehow still feel the heat behind the magic.
The light dimmed and it was just Lana and Clark standing side by side. Alone. Something that keeps her up all night worrying because she didn’t know what to say to Clark. Sorry i didn’t realize Bizarro wasn’t you, sorry you never let me in and the one time i think you did, it wasn’t you. I’m just sorry and i know we can work this work. I love you Clark, so many different scenarios go through her head on how to start a conversation. Clark didn’t seem to have the same problem, he was already moving quickly grabbing the phone, Lana watches him enter a number in. and she gently shakes her head, she wishes he can face their relationship problems like he faces the world's danger. Head on. “I’m calling Chloe, maybe she will be more calm if she has her here” She nodded “that’s a good idea” she makes her self move, her feet take her towards the couch, she sits down on the table in front the couch Lois Lane was resting on, Lana can see right away this Lois was not their Lois. Their Lois had shoulder length reddish hair with a full bangs to match and always seems to love her jeans and pants suit when she was working but this Lois Lois had a black hair with thick, sideswept bangs to complement her super long, textured strands. She was wearing Pintucked Chiffon Blouse with a navy one button jacket and Belted Pencil Skirt with Seam Detail matching with shoes that Lana knew for sure are Christian Louboutin pigalle 120 patent calf, the package that this Lois Lane made spoke of a successful woman. She can hear Clark talking in the background explaining the situation to Chloe.
Lana is left wondering who she was running from, Lois has always been the type of woman that would stand and fight, she can’t imagine her running away from a fight. . . .
