A/N: I only write Chlark once a year for a friends birthday...

Prologue: Modern Day Metropolis

Chloe and Clark had finally decided to give it a shot, facing the near end of the world can cause you to change perspective on a lot of things. To Chloe it was everything she ever imagined and Clark had realized that he had spent most of his adult life being an idiot, for not ever realizing the love he had for Chloe was that perfect kind of love that everyone dreams of. Apart they were strong, together they were incredible.

The night before the great battle with the Kandorians.

"Chloe," Clark whispered as he held her. Chloe was still trying to catch her breath from the marathon mattress mambo session that they had had.

"Yeah," she smiled up at him but her smile faded when she saw the sadness on his face.
"Don't, don't you dare say your goodbyes to me," she growled while sitting up.

"I'm going to have to leave soon." He spoke tracing the outline of her face reverently.'
"God, there's never enough time for us. I've wasted so many years." He spoke memorizing her face.

"Don't we have the rest of our lives," she smiled kissing his chin.

"Chloe this battle is bigger than any of us has faced. I want you to be safe, far away from it, but I can't get everything I want. You'll be safer with Oliver while I fight Zod."

"I understand, I do, but that doesn't mean you have to say good bye to me." She pressed harder.

"I want to marry you Chloe, after this is over, to do what I should have done years ago." He smiled.

"Well, I'm not sure I want to marry you," she spoke standing and walking naked across the room to get a drink of water.

"What?"

"Come on Clark a girl waits her entire life to get a proposal and that;s the best you got?" she turned and smiled a mega watt smile at him.

"Ohh baby," he spoke standing and moving to be in front of her in all his naked glory. He dropped to his knees and kissed her belly. She put her hands on his shoulders and began to massage them lazily. "I've tried denial and avoidance and nearly lost the best thing that ever happened to me. Marry me Chloe and make me the happiest man alive. Let's make every tomorrow after this battle the best day of our life together."

The tears were falling and Chloe felt like her heart was going to explode. She nodded yes and Clark stood and spun her around peppering her face with kisses. The clock chimed midnight and he sighed. "I have to go." He frowned. Chloe pressed a kiss to his lips lovingly.

"I love you Clark and after the battle every tomorrow is ours" she smiled. He nodded and kissed her passionately. He pulled back and smiled then dressed quickly and zipped off to where he was supposed to prepare for battle.

The Kondorian Battle…that next day….

Clark and Zod were fighting toe to toe. The battle grew ugly and Oliver and Chloe were in over their heads. Oliver was nearly out of Kryptonite arrows when they got attacked from above.

"Run!" was the command that Chloe heard from Arrow. Zod was taking no prisoners and Oliver was blocking for her escape. Another Kandorian came from above and scooped her up into the sky. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" was the last thing Chloe heard as she was carried off into the night.

Chloe had no idea where she was going, the earth was zooming past her, all she knew is that she was north, the temperature dropped and the ground was white. Her stomach met her throat as the descent happened rapidly. She was zoomed into a cave then into was looked like a coffin. "No, please not this, please, don't make me…." She begged to the faceless male warrior. He smirked and pressed a button and the lid slid shut. Chloe was trying to catch her breath, but she couldn't she hated tight spaces. A light flashed inside, she remembered thinking it was starting to get cold then it got really cold and Chloe could think no more….

Earth :2110

"Another earthquake rocked the Great White North," the news anchor spoke while images of the villages of the Arctic played on. "Initial damage reports have hundreds stranded,"

:You there yet?: The voice cued into the com.

"Please." was the reply filled with laughter. "When the rest of the team gets here have them go to the main city, I'm hearing an unusual flutter coming from that lesser mountain range"

: Anything you say, big blue, Canary out: Jason just shook his head as he tried to focus on the sound. It was a flutter and scratching. It was faint and it really surprised him that he could filter it amongst the sounds of the folks that were stuck. No one of the stuck were in danger, otherwise he would have delayed this mission in lieu of helping the victims of the quake. He shook his head; one would think that being another descendant of Superman would have earned him another nickname besides Big Blue. How many years had that been given to the men of his family? The ones that took on the hero mantle that is.

Jason swooped down lower to start scanning the area for the sound. At first pass he didn't see anything. He hovered and closed his eyes trying to focus on the sound. It was getting weaker, not stronger and that worried him. He flew with his eyes closed only following the sounds, he found a cave opening and landed with a gentle swoosh causing snow to swirl around his feet.

He entered the cave wearily, scanning slowly, trying to still follow the faint sound; rocks had crumbled blocking any further travel. He stared focusing his heat vision and blasting a hole for him to travel through. He stepped into the opening slowly. He moved forward a few more paces when he heard what sounded like a female voice.

"P—p-p-p-p-p-pl-l-le-e-e-assse." It was faint and she sounded cold. "H-e-e-e-e-lp-p-p-p me." Jason cocked his head and could have sworn the voice was right in front of him. He looked closer and saw what appeared to be an antique coffin half buried by rocks and ice. He saw a dainty hand sticking up through a crevice. He began quickly move the debris away from the coffin, trying to not have more debris fall onto it. When he got to the opening there was a pale blond looking up at him, her lips were blue and she wasn't shivering. "H-e-e-e-e-lp-p-p-p me." She whispered faintly. He reached over his shoulder and removed his cape. He then gently lifted what was left of the cover off of her and scooped her up, wrapping her up into the warmth of the very alien fabric.

"It's alright miss, I've got you," he smiled. He then turned and walked back the way he came leaving the cave. "Canary this is big blue." he spoke as he launched them into the air.

:Go ahead.:

:I've got a medical emergency, one female maybe in her twenties, she's hypothermic.:

: Got it, closest medical field office is too far if she's that cold. You could always take her to the cabin; you know how Arrow keeps that stocked for emergencies:

"I thought of that, seems like the best choice. Unless something that they can't handle comes up, I'll be taking care of her."

:Ok, I'll check in with you later:

Superman flew quickly taking special care not to jostle his passenger who was going in and out of consciousness. He made great time to the cabin of Connor Jonas Queen, II. AKA Arrow. He landed on the back deck softly and put his palm on the ID pad to gain entrance. The door opened automatically and he entered carefully as to not bump any part of the young lady in the door way. He went to the living room and set her in front of the fire place. He focused his heat vision onto the logs in the fireplace that erupted into a huge fire. He grabbed the quilt off of the couch and tossed it on top of her. He then zipped down a hall to retrieve some medical equipment. He spun out of the suit and into sweats and a T-shirt and then went back to his guest. He knelt at her side and gathered pillows to prop her up. He checked her vital signs and scanned her for any internal injuries. Being by the blazing fire, the pallor was gone from her face and her lips were no longer blue. His gaze stayed on her lips, he was totally and utterly fascinated. They were so perfect and utterly kissable.

He shook his head, where in the world did that thought come from? She was sick, and in no way should his libido, which it seemed had been on vacation for a very long time, and was now making its presence known, seemed appropriate in her medical care. He stood again and went to the kitchen to make some hot tea and grab some food. She would more than likely be hungry when she woke up.

Chloe had never been so cold in her entire life. She woke shivering, not knowing how long she had been asleep, or what happened to her team for that matter. She knew she was trapped; there was snow and rock all around her. She did the only thing she could think of with her free hand and that was to try and dig her way out. After several futile minutes she did what had become her last resort and cried for help.

It seemed like forever until she heard anyone come to where she was. She then felt warmth being wrapped around her and carried as if she would break. The heat radiating off the body that was carrying her was incredible. She opened her eyes briefly to see red and blue and dark hair, Clark. He had saved her yet again. She would thank him as soon as her brain was not nearly so muddled. She seemed to have lost herself to sleep and then woke to great warmth. She could hear the crackle of a fire and sighed in utter contentment. She felt someone check her blood pressure and her pulse which confused her then the presence was gone and lazily opened one eye to try and check out her surroundings but was too tired. She sighed again and snuggled into the warmth.

"Trying to pretend you're asleep?" The voice was low and a timbre that sent goose flesh sliding up her arms. Chloe opened her eyes slowly the light hurting her sensitive eyes. The voice was so familiar, but not really.

"Clark?" she spoke smiling.

"Ohhh boy" he spoke sitting down on the floor next to her. "What's your name miss?" he asked.

"Not funny Clark,"

"Not trying to be, just humor me will you? What's your name?"

"Chloe Sullivan," she spoke. He groaned. "What? Clark tell me?"

"Sorry Chloe but I'm not Clark."

"Sorry?" Chloe spoke fully awake now and looking at a replica of Clark that was definitely him but not. "I don't understand, where's Clark?" she asked terrified.

"Easy," his voice a gentle purr. "What's the last thing you remember?"

Chloe couldn't understand why this guy was not answering her question. "The battle against the Kandorians, where's Ollie? Where's the team?" she asked growing more anxious.

"Ok first things first," he spoke scooping her up and setting her on the couch then he joined her. "I'm Jason, but my friends call me JJ." Chloe just shook her head confused. "That battle, the Justice League defeated Zod and his allies. No one on the team was hurt, just you…um…went missing."

" Missing? How long have I been missing?" she asked getting really, really nervous.

"Look I would love to tell you more, but you need to eat, and rest."

"Haven't I rested enough? Where's Clark?" she got more adamant.

"Chloe," he spoke as he handed her the tea, "Drink, please, this will help you to feel better then I promise to tell you everything."

"Why won't you answer my questions?" she pleaded.

"If you drink this, I'll get someone here to you who can, I promise." He spoke. Chloe studied him wearily. He had the dark hair, and those seriously sexy blue eyes. His features seemed sharper than Clark's but no less yummy. Chloe nodded and drank a sip of the perfectly heated tea. It was chamomile and it was so smooth and warm.

"This is so good." She purred as she began to make short order of the beverage, feeling warm from the inside out. He smiled her as she began to smile at him, her mind was starting to get foggy and she was getting very, very sleepy. "Great tea." She smiled and yawned.

In a few minutes she was asleep. JJ took the cup from her and set it aside. He lay her down and covered her up, realizing she was still tightly wrapped in his cape. That just made his libido jump to the surface. He made sure she was comfortable then went to the kitchen and hit a button on the com pad.

"Hi JJ, how did the mission in the Arctic go?" the voice was regal. The blonde had a full beard and mustache neatly trimmed. He had more laugh lines than JJ remembered and there was definitely white hair at the temples.

"Uh…Uncle A.C something weird happened." He spoke trying to find a way to break the news that he may have found his Uncle's Watchtower.

"Spill it kid." A.C spoke curious.

"Can you break away from duty?" he asked.

"Uh oh."

"Seriously, this is urgent."

"Is there a reason you want me to leave my duties nephew?"

"Does the name Chloe Sullivan mean anything to you?" he asked nervously.

"WHAT?"

"I found a blonde trapped in some coffin type thing. She just came around about 5 minutes ago and was asking for Grandpa Clark. She says she's Chloe Sullivan."

"Where are you?" he asked.

"C.J's cabin."

"Ok, let me get back to you." A.C spoke and cut the link.

A.C sat for a long moment, his heart wrenching in his chest for his friends who didn't live to see the day the Tower returned. Oliver had taken it especially hard as he was the last person to see her alive and he had been responsible for her safety. Clark and Ollie's friendship was never the same after that. He shook his head and moved from his desk to go to hand off his duties for a short while. If it was Chloe she would be so confused.

Chloe came awake realizing a few things. 1- she needed to pee 2- she was really hungry 3- she was sore all over and 4- was utterly and completely confused. She sat up and threw the huge quilt off of her. She was still wrapped in something that was red and had a near silky texture to it. It was a cape, she pulled harder to see the symbol of the house of El on it. She smiled while tracing the symbol with her fingers.

JJ watched her with such fascination. Her hands worked his cape deftly. "You need anything?" he asked his voice cracking slightly. Chloe stopped what she was doing to turn to the Clark clone.

"JJ is it?"

"Yeah, Jason Jonathan Kent, at your service." He bowed slightly.

"Ahh you're a bit of a clown?" she teased. "Um restroom? Food?" she asked.

"Ah yess," he moved closer to her and held his hand out to her. She looked at it oddly then took it reluctantly. She stood, and then faltered landing firmly in his arms. "You ok?" his voice was huskier than he anticipated.

Chloe blushed as the sound vibrated down to her toes. "Uhh I guess I just don't have my land legs yet." She blushed. He smiled and scooped her up into his arms and carried her down the hall. "Totally unnecessary," she protested.

"Don't need you falling and hurting yourself." He smiled. He set her in the bathroom then left to fetch her some clothes, toiletries, and a towel. He came back and she was still standing in the same spot. "I'll be just a shout away if you need anything." He spoke smiling. He turned to leave the room.

Chloe wanted to say something to him, needed to but her mind was still not working right. "Uhh JJ?" she asked. He paused to face her. She gasped, Clark had been hot, yeah, but JJ was down right exotic. Chloe blushed. "Thanks, for…um everything."

"Your welcome, I'll make us some dinner, my guest should be here and maybe we can figure out what happened to you?" He winked and closed the door as he left. Chloe moved to the shower and turned on the spray with the touch of a button. She set the spray pattern and temperature and then shed her clothes and stepped into the warmth.

000000000000000000000

A.C had shown up while JJ was getting Chloe settled. AC was dressed down which he didn't do at all since taking on his new responsibilities."It really sounds like her." A.C spoke. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "God what a miracle that would be if it truly is her."

"What was Tower like?" JJ asked as he began to stir the chili he made.

"Ohh man. There was this old saying that dynamite comes in small packages. She definitely fit that. She kept us all in line. She was the glue that really kept us together. She was quick witted and thrived on a challenge."

JJ was making sandwiches when he heard the emergeny wail of the comnm. He cocked his head. "Go," A.C spoke smiling. "She'll be safe. I promise."

"I wanted to hear the story."

"I know, later. Go." A.C smiled. JJ nodded, spun into the suit and then flew out the back door.

A.C continued stirring the chili, finished the sandwiches, then went to the wine cabinet and pulled out a couple of white wines. He popped the cork on one and poured himself a drink. He had a feeling he was going to need it.
