Chapter one

As Clark burst into the Bank vault, there was clearly something in his eyes, something was wrong.

"Clark!" A young female voice shouted.

Clark smiled knowingly and looked behind him. It was Chloe; she was obviously scared, it was also clear that she had been patiently waiting for him.

Chloe did not feel prepared; she squeezed the shard of kryptonite tightly in her hand. She knew that somehow Clark had been infected by red k and she was the only one who can stop him while Oliver had caught his grand prize.


Oliver was proud of himself. He walked in his Green Arrow gear circling his prey. He had found Chloe, and along with her he found the son of his parent's murderer, Lex Luthor.

He was beaten, constantly. And Oliver did not feel a bit of remorse, this was not even the real Lex Luthor, it was one of his clones.

"How did you infect Clark." Oliver had whispered close to his face.

"W…W…Wh..what..what are yo-" And he is cut off with a fist thrusted into his jaw.

"How did you do it Luthor!" Oliver hollered getting more frustrated.

Lex was in a daze as his half opened eyes tried to stay open.

Tess walked toward Oliver and pulled him away.

"Your pushing him to hard, look at him." Tess said hoping to get Oliver to calm down. "Sorry Tess, I forgot you had a thing for homicidal maniacs." Oliver pressed.

He crossed the line.

"He planted cameras in my eyes so he could spy on me, don't you ever question my loyalty!" Tess snapped.

Oliver just stared back at her.

"We are trying to help Clark, not get our revenge." Tess said calming down.

"Sorry Tess." Oliver ashamed of himself.

Lex began to cough to wake himself.

"S-stop…pl…please stop." Lex tried to say.


Chloe began to slowly step towards Clark in hopes to reason with him.

"Clark, you have been infected by red kryptonite." Chloe said.

"Is that right?" Clark asked with a grin.

Chloe takes a big step towards him.

"Clark, the police will be here soon, you don't want to reveal yourself."

"Don't worry, they will be to busy on your autopsy." Clark said as his eyes turned orange and Chloe closed her eyes and prepared for the burn. As the sound of the heat ignited, Chloe felt no burn.

She opened her eyes and noticed a flaming house of El symbol burned in to the floor.

"What is he doing?"


Lex was tired. But he could not go to sleep. Lex began untying himself. Oliver did pay attention we tied him up, Lex knew all the tricks of the trade. When Lex was no longer tied up he stumbled to the ground. His legs felt like they were tied down by weights making it difficult to move. The room would spin out of control as he made each step. When Lex looked around he discovered he was in Watchtower, it was an opportune moment to hack the system.

When Lex made it to the computer, he was asked a voice command.

"Please give code word."

"Jimmy." Lex weezed.

"Access approved."

Lex was ready to begin, hoping to hack into the computer system slow his captures down as he escaped.

Lex stopped as he heard footsteps. High heels.

"You had better put your hands on your shiny bald head."
