SPOILER WARNING/ISH: WHAT I WOULD DO AFTER SALVATION (WATCH SALVATION NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T! ITS AMAZING)

Prologue (Salvation)

"Clark."

Lois finally realized all the lies, the secrets, the avoiding eye contact, and the wish for her to go to Kenya. Clark did care, he was the blur, and he knew he couldn't tell her. It finally made since in Lois Lane's head. Now she knew, and could help protect him.

Chapter 1

Weeks had past but Lois Lane was a fighter she wouldn't just give up hope. She did her searches in private because to keep Clark and herself safe no one could know that Lois knew who the blur was. But Lois faith did wavy ever so slightly because it had seemed that everyone she loved had vanished. Even Tess who she really didn't like, was MIA too.

It haunted her that kiss, and now she knew why. It had been exactly 3.6 weeks since she had any contact with Clark or the Blur. It was if that kiss was one of goodbye. She didn't know the specifics but she did know that Clark the blur, he needed the Book of Rao- Alien technology, and that Zod had the Blur's powers but wasn't the same man at heart, and Zod was not a friend of Clark Kent's no more, or never was. Sitting there thinking of what had past, her gut told her Clark was no meteor freak. But that maybe her boyfriend, yes, she was going to let him off the hook, but maybe he was an alien too.

After that night that she discovered Clark's secret she made a promise to herself that she would let Clark tell her when the time was right, that is if he didn't realize that she had discovered his secret. But the thing is she didn't know if she would ever see that boy again. The only two people that she knew for 100% knew Clark secret were Martha and Chloe, she started her search with Martha.

"Hey, Mrs. K, I'm kind of getting worried about your son… sighs… I know that we said goodbye and he told me to go to Kenya, but the thing is I didn't go and I haven't heard anything from him in three weeks, I have gone to the farm and everything is covered and Shelby and everyone is gone, and I was wondering if you might have heard from him?"

"Oh Lois, honey, I'm sorry I'm the one to tell you this, but Clark left weeks ago for a daily planet exclusive… the new island they have discovered, they sent Clark… we don't know when he will return." Martha barely made out the last words, but she caught herself since she was on the phone with Lois.

"Oh okay… Well I have to run, but Martha if you ever need anything, just call me okay? I care for you and clark deeply."

"Yes, same here, Dear."

And the was her conversation with Martha, which she did look into, it seems the head of the company, one Oliver Queen had signed on Clark's leave of work over a couple of weeks ago, to this mysterious island. From the way Martha spoke she knew that, that was the story she had been told to tell to everyone who had asked about Clark, even Lois.

When Lois went to meet with her other source all things Clark, she too had disappeared. Chloe Sullivan had left without a trace. She had left her purse with credit cards, money, i.d. and even her cell phone. Lois didn't even know what to think about this, her baby cousin was gone. She wasn't there for her when she really needed Chloe. She needed Chloe's shoulder to help comfort her with her problems with Clark. Not to tell Chloe that she knew Clark's secret but just to have some type of calm in the madness. But Chloe was gone along with Clark. She knew Chloe was the only person who could understand her pain and she wasn't there.

Her last chance was slim but it was a lead she need to follow. Oliver Queen had signed off on the "fake" assignment so obliviously Ollie was in on it. But when she went to his office she was turned away from security because "Mr. Queen was out of the office". But that didn't stop Lois from breaking into his office; she was Lois Lane she found away.

"Alright Ollie what are you guys up to?" Lois said as she entered the billionaire's office.

She went up to his desk and began to go through his papers, she knew Ollie was a smart guy so he wasn't going to leave clues right out in the open but she thought that maybe she could find just the slimmest bit of information.

"Come on Ollie leave me a light in the crap hole…" She couldn't find anything, his day planner was filled with boring office meetings, she say a list of new office works, budget cuts, pay roll, spending… and then there was a list. Buildings Queen Industries owned. There were buildings all over the world from Tokyo, to London, but then at the bottom of the list was a place not too far from here…

"The old hotel with the sky room… why would Queen Industries own that? It was just apartment complex now."

Finally Lois had sometime of lead. So she stuffed the list into her bag, and took his hard drive out of his computer, maybe with sheer luck she could hack into his files.

As Lois left the building she decided to walk because really it wasn't that far and she need coffee. And one of her favorite cafes was on the way to this mysterious building.

After she had her capp. she felt much better, almost as if her spirit had been a little uplifted from this new break in the "story". As she approached the building she never noticed how beautiful it actually was. The outside had strong marble steps and beautiful glass doors with bright gold handles.

She walked up to and tried the door and with sheer luck it opened.

As she walked in there was a small reception's desk, this just had to be a better day for her because whoever was supposed to be working the desk was out.

Lois decided to go with her gut feeling and enter the elevator. As she walked in there were just a million different buttons for all the floors. They were all brightly shown with a bright blue light except for the panel on the other side of the door, hidden under the emergency exit information was a small pad… almost like something you would pass a finger print on.

Lois laid her finger on the pad and waited and that's when it happened. The elevator went on lock down. The door freezed up and the elevator stopped. A bright blue light shown from the top of the elevator and screen came up in front of her face, as the beam scanned her it asked, "Verify"

Okay Lois… Military… "Lois Lane." She said almost questioning.

"Password"

Think Lane… If this was Chloe or Oliver what would they set your password as…

She took in a long breath before saying, "1-0-0-4-0-6"

"Vocal and Bio analysis confirmed."

I Love my cousin. With that the doors shot open as Lois exited she walked forward to beautiful French doors, what was behind still a dark mystery. She placed her hand on the doors and pushed them open, as she entered the lights and screens light up like a Christmas tree and Lois couldn't move. Chloe what have you been doing….

"Welcome to Watchtower, Lois Lane."
