The Smallville Zone

(da na na na, da na na na, da na na na) -The Twilight Zone Theme Plays

First Chapter- Intro The Intro is a little different from the other chapters. The others have much more dialogue and humor. The good part starts at the 2nd chapter, but read this part first or the good parts won't make much sense. ---

A very tired Clark scrambled up into his room. He was wiped out from playing basketball with Whitney and his friends all day. Usually he wouldn't be this fatigued, but his dad gave him very clear instructions not to use his abilities, blah blah blah, and the whole speech on how he was different, blah blah blah, and how he could hurt somebody if he wasn't careful.After a couple hundred versions of that speech, Clark thought, it got kind of old..But his dad made sure that he added that he had complete faith in his son to be responsible and use his better judgment.

A ::Sigh:: came out when Clark began climbing the stairs to get to his room. "Clark, is that you?" His mom must have been doing the dishes downstairs.

"Yeah mom, its me." Clark muttered.

"Going to do some homework for school?" Martha called back.

"Nah, I'm exhausted, I'm just gonna go crash on my bed." Clark slowed his walking to hear what he knew his mom was going to say.

"Alright sweetie, but just remember what happened last time you just 'crashed' on your bed. It took me and your father three days to fix the floor."

"Yeah, yeah, mom, I'll be careful." Clark quickened his walk so that he wouldn't have to talk to any more of his so-called family members.

"Oh! And Clark!" His mom called from the kitchen, "Remember, your dad wants to take you fishing tomorrow."

"Great.." Clark slammed the doors behind him and collapsed on his bed. 'They're always like this!!!' He thought, 'They never listen to me! They don't give a damn about what I want. Its always: "Take out the garbage Clark", "Milk the cows son", "Don't use your powers", "Be nice to Lana's Aunt", "Don't kill anybody"...And now I hafta go stupid fishing tomorrow, when they know that I wanna go to the park with Chloe and Pete!!'

Clark Punched his pillow, which flew into the wall, knocking all of his books of the shelf, and peeling off most of the paint.

"Dammit!!!" Clark knew he was screwed.

He heard footsteps on the floorboards of the staircase.

"Is everything okay honey?"

"Yeah mom, terrific, I'm going to sleep now."

"Alright, remember, your father, fishing, bright and early tomorrow."

Clark grunted. "Okay, 'night mom."

"Goodnight Clark." His mom's voice vanished as he heard the sounds of descending footsteps.

::UGH!!!:: Clark grunted again, swinging his right arm into the wall, leaving a perfect hand shaped opening looking towards the stars.

"Great, real good Clark, as if fishing tomorrow isn't punishment enough."

Clark fell back onto his ripped pillow and drifted to sleep, without bothering to take off his pants or jacket. ---

::mmmmm::

Clark awoke to a quiet buzzing sound. Loud enough to wake him up, but soft enough not to disturb the cows or his parents.

"What the-." Clark was mystified when he looked at the small hand shaped window that he had made, and saw a green glowing light shining through.

He hesitated to go near it, or even move, because of the experiences that he had had before with strange green things.

Slowly he moved towards it, cautiously, crouching down in front of the spot on the floor where the green light was flashing strangely.

"Umm.hi?" Clark was totally weirded out by the that thing. He moved into the light and looked out of the hole in his wall, into the night sky. It was almost 2:00, and he knew he'd have to get up early to go with his dad to sit on a boat for an entire afternoon, with a bucket full of worms, trying to catch at least one stupid fish, which he could have easily ordered on the internet, in a package, vacuum sealed, as Chloe had taught him. So he decided that the freaky light would be there in the morning, and he could see it again then.

Clark made his way back to his bed, stepping on his calculator, and crushing it. He closed his eyes, and fell back to sleep, faster than before. About five minutes after Clark fell asleep, there was a huge green flash, and the madness had started.
