Chapter I: Trinity, Lana, KARR, and Chloe go back in timeTrinity smiled as she made an adjustment to The Knight Automated Roving Robot's new pursuit mode. Her cybernetic technician, Dr. Alicia Garrison, had been on vacation, so Trinity was forced to make the adjustment herself. Chloe walked up behind her as she saw the Kryptonian/human hybrid close the hood of the prototype.
"There. Now your capable of going even faster than you could when I first had you built." She said to the vehicle's computer. She had assembled the original team Wilton Knight had used to build the original KARR, minus the cybernetic technician who had miss programmed the original prototype. Chloe Sullivan smiled.
"Just when did you have him built?" She said. The pretty reporter for The Daily Planet had arrived at The Kent farm. She smiled.
"2002 back when Michael Knight was investigating Lionel Luthor. Apparently the Foundation had been looking into his activities back in the 80's. He had created a copy of the original KARR to put the blame on Michael in 2001. Michael and KITT had been sent to Smallville to investigate it. The prototype copy had been armed with a defense system and in the end; The Knight Industries Two Thousand had been destroyed. Michael was then promoted to Executive Director of FLAG, and I had discovered the original plans for my father's original prototype. I had rebuilt the car with one agenda: To defeat Lionel Luthor. My team had programmed KARR exactly like his predecessor, but updated to be upgraded at anytime. Since that time, he had been upgraded. He's also been programmed to discover anything about Krypton. What are you doing here?" She asked looking at Chloe wondering what she was doing here.
"I was supposed to meet our friend Peter Parker here. Y'know, a New York Photographer mysteriously comes to Smallville to investigate our leafy little hamlet, and I had heard rumors of a vigilante wearing a black costume with a white spider on the chest that had caused some issues for our local underworld. Morgan Edge's gang was shut down by some super-Powered vigilante and Peter claimed he had pictures he wanted to give to the planet." Chloe said. She circled the car.
"I'm sure Peter's very busy. Wanna help me with a little test?" Trinity said, gesturing to the driver seat. Chloe climbed behind the wheel. Trinity climbed into the passenger seat.
"Welcome aboard the Knight 3000. I am the Knight Automated Roving Robot, the first of a new bold new line, designed after the Knight Industries Three Thousand, designed to aid the Foundation for Law And Government. Miss Trinity, Why is this woman installed in your seat?" KARR asked. Trinity then pressed an override command into an overhead keypad.
"Chloe is going to help us with our experiment." Trinity said as she watched Chloe stare at the digital dashboard.
"What do I do?" Chloe asked. She saw 4 buttons. "Power", "Auto", "Normal", "Pursuit".
"Press "Pursuit" and press on the accelerator." Trinity said. She did.
The black vehicle quickly exited its charging bay in the Kent barn and was on the Kansas road headed toward Smallville High School in a matter of 4 minutes. Chloe watched the digital speedometer move from 0-90 in 4 seconds. She turned her attention from the road to her sister-in-law. Suddenly they saw light surround them and they were very quickly traveling 3,000 miles an hour in a matter of minutes. The light that started to shine around the prototype was building and it built itself up to a crescendo.
"Where are we?" Chloe said as they found themselves on a deserted road. Both girls got out and looked around. Trinity pointed to a sign that read "Smallville-100 miles".
"The question should not be where are we, but when are we? Ladies, I detect no Kryptonite fragments anywhere in Smallville." KARR said as the prototype drove up behind them in "auto cruise" mode.
"We must be in the past, before Kal-El came to Earth." Chloe said. She smiled. They then heard someone in the back seat.
"Lana Lang-Kent! What are you doing here? I thought you were supposed to be with Clark out of town." Trinity said as she climbed behind the wheel of her vehicle and inputted her security code to allow her primary access to the car. She knew they were in troubleā¦.
