Chapter 1
After a struggle ensues with the guard, Lois manages to knock him out, but not before he stabs her in the abdomen. Before she passes out, she is able to dial Chloe's number and manage to say her cousin name before she collapse to the ground unconscious. Chloe arrives at the dam to discover the deceased LuthorCorp guard, the knife and pools of blood. Following the blood, she finds Lois unconscious and bleeding a lot. She tearfully begs Lois to wake up, but got no respond from Lois. Chloe begins to cry and a shining tear falls on Lois' forehead creating a bright light. After Lois woke up and found Chloe laying unconscious few feet away from her. She went over and checked on Chloe.
"Chloe?" she notices her cousin's face was pale.
She tries to wake Chloe up, but got no response from her. Lois was about to get up when the building started to shake. Lois quickly covers Chloe with her own body when a bright light surround them. Then in blink of an eye, they disappear.
Clark on the other head was fighting Bizarro Clark making the whole dam rumble. The Bizarro Clark ended up tossing Clark out of the building and chase after Clark. While chasing after Clark, Bizarro's face transforms into a chalk-white, steel-like visage.
Meanwhile
Lois woke up in a cold chilling place. She still covering Chloe, at the same time felt like she been here before. She took off her jacket and cover Chloe's body with it. Lois got up and looked around when a voice spoke up "Lois Lane".
"Who are you?" she remains calm, trying to hide her fear.
"My name is Jor-El, I brought you here," he replied.
"Ok," she said, not understanding why she was brought here.
"You seem to have many question in mind, but I can tell you one thing that you were brought back by Ms Sullivan," Jor El told her.
Lois chuckles and snort "You're kidding right?"
"No, I don't kid around Ms Lane," Jor El replied.
Jor-El told Lois how she was saved by Chloe and what the effect it has on Chloe was.
Lois went over to Chloe and notices that she was still pale. She knew from Jor-El tone, he was telling the truth about Chloe. Without thinking, she spoke "Can you help her?"
"I can, but in one condition," Jor El replied
"Please, I do anything if it mean saving Chloe," Lois said, still kneeling next to Chloe.
"Very well, just remember that you choose this decision on your own Lois," Jor El reminded her.
Lois nodded "I understand," She looked down at Chloe and touches her face "Take me back," she said. A light surrounded Chloe and Lois and then they vanished.
Clark is in the woods close by where he meets Bizarro again. As Clark tries to leave, remembering his friends are still in the dam, Bizarro attacks him, but Clark manages to punch him away. With Bizarro out of the way, Clark went and head back to the dam.
Downstream, the father now sees the water rushing towards them.
"RUN!" he told his son. He grabbed his son to make run for it, but falls and hit his head, knocks himself unconscious. His son runs to his side and sees the water coming towards them, but Clark arrives just in time and uses his super-speed and heat vision to vaporize the water. The boy stares at Clark in awe. Clark smile and nod at the kid. Then he superspeed away.
"Whoa," was the only word the boy manages to say.
Back at Dam
Clark arrives back at the dam and begins to look for any survivors of sign of Lionel Luthor. Lois woke up and found herself and Chloe back in the dam again.
"Was that a dream?" She asked herself.
A sound of someone coughing interrupts her thoughts. She turns and saw Chloe waking up, coughing water out of her mouth "Chloe," she said as she help her cousin sit up.
"Lois?" Chloe said, when she notices her cousin beside her. She looked around and notices she was still in the dam. Her eyes widen and she quickly turn back, looking at Lois "Last thing I remember was seeing you on the ground unconscious," She check for any wound on Lois "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay Chlo, you almost gave me a scared there," she said, pulling Chloe into a hug.
"What happened?" Chloe asked.
Lois told Chloe what she remembered and about the place collapsing when she notices the door glowing green light from it. She starts to walk toward it.
"Lois, what is it?" Chloe asked
She follows Lois and notices the glowing green door. Lois and Chloe approach to the door and was shock to see what inside. On the other side is endless water and floating dead bodies. A small hand grab Lois's hand, making her startles with Chloe. They turn around to find Bizarro's previous host, an eight-year-old boy, crying for help. Lois and Chloe kneel down in front of the boy.
It's everything will be okay," Lois assured the little boy, but fearing it really won't.
"We need to find a way out of here," Chloe tells Lois, as she looked around for a way out.
Lois and Chloe trying to move piles that was blocking the exit, but it was too heavy for them to lift it. Lois and Chloe calls out for help when the wall collapse, revealing Clark. He was relieved to see Chloe and Lois with the boy are all right.
Chloe and Lois lift their head up and were also relieve to see Clark.
"How did you?" Lois questioned him, confused how Clark could move something that was heavy.
Clark made up an excuse, hoping that Lois would believe, which she actually did.
"Let's you guys out here," he told them.
The girls nodded and Clark helps Chloe, Lois, and little boy safely out of the dam.
Meanwhile at Barn in the loft
Bizarro Clark had just killed a person and now opening the box containing green kryptonite. He place it on his wound and it quickly head. His face has an evil grin as he look at the rock in his hand.
At the Talon
Lois was feeling tired so she decided to head back to Talon with Chloe once the little boy is safe at the hospital while Clark went to check something out. Once at the Talon, Chloe tries to call Lana on her cell phone, but only got her voice mail.
"Lana, it's me Chloe, call me back soon, "Chloe said and then hung up.
"I'm going to take shower and then take a long nap," Lois said before she left to the bathroom
Chloe pulled out her laptop and start searching on it. She was searching around when she receives an e-mail about the news of Lana's death. She burst in tears, knowing that her friend is gone. She watches a video of her and Lana together when Clark arrives.
"I'm so sorry Clark," she hugs him for comfort, but Clark is unwilling to mourn just yet. Choosing to focus on the problem at hand, he tells her that Bizarro, but Chloe stopped him. "Let's go the Daily Planet and we can talk there, I don't my cousin hearing anything," she said.
"How's Lois?" Clark asked all of sudden.
Chloe gave a Clark a weird look before she replied "She's fine Clark, why?"
"Nothing, I was noticing something different about her that's all," Clark said, wondering if Lois is hiding something.
Chloe shrugged her shoulders "She probably freak about the accident at the Dam," she smiles "Don't worry I will talk her, but for now we need to deal with your situation first".
Chloe grabbed her jacket and left out the door with Clark right behind her.
Clark and Chloe left out the door when Lois came out from the bathroom.
She was getting ready to take nap when she felt a presence in the room. She turned around and jumped when she saw Bizarro Clark behind her who she assume is Clark "Whoa Smallville, you scared me".
"Where have you been hiding?" he said.
Lois gave him a confused and slightly said " Uh, Where I told I would be, I mean Chloe already told you remember," She walked away from him and then realizes something. Bizarro Clark was busy staring at Lois. She took around and looked at him "Hey," he looked at her "Aren't supposed to be with Chloe or something?" she asked.
"Man," he walked up to her "How can I guy miss what it been in front of him entire time," he said.
"Easy there Smallville, personal space breach," Lois said as she was getting nervous.
Before she reacts, he grabbed her and kissed her on the lips. Her eyes widen as she realize Clark was kissing her. She put her hands on his chest and pushes him away. Without thinking, she slapped him across the face.
"Maybe next time," he said and then left leaving Lois confused and shock at what just happen.
At the Daily Plant
Everyone was out for lunch leaving Clark and Chloe with their research.
Clark tells her that Bizarro reacts positively to kryptonite, and they realize that he is probably searching for more meteor rocks for strength. They also learn that Lex had a large shipment sent to the dam. Clark does not know how to defeat an enemy that has all of his powers but not his weakness.
"If my hunch is right, he probably looking for Lex right now," Chloe told him.
"I need to find him before he causes any more damage, but first I need to talk with someone first,' Clark said.
"Well, go," Chloe said.
Clark looked at Chloe and then quickly superspeed away.
Clark arrived back at the farm and meets with the Martian Manhunter in his loft. He tells Clark that he has done what Jor-El did not want, to allow for there to be an evil counter-part to Clark's powers. Clark tells him that he is proud that he cares for humans and considers it strength. The Martian Manhunter hints that Clark's other strength might help him defeat Bizarro; Clark remembers that he gets his power from the Earth's yellow sun. Clark then realizes that Bizarro was weakened earlier when he was exposed to sunlight.
Meanwhile
Bizarro Clark has managed to break Lex out of prison and order him to show where to find green meteor rock. Lex has taken Bizarro to the dam and pulls a large gun on him, but Bizarro simply stops Lex and knocks him across the room. Bizarro then absorbs the kryptonite radiation when Clark arrives. Clark goes after Bizarro, but is easily knocked back. Clark lands under a hole in the wall, directly underneath a beam of sunlight. Bizarro thinks he has won and starts to leave, but the sun heals Clark and he gets up and calls Bizarro back. Bizarro comes toward Clark, right into the sunlight, where his face changes into its inhuman appearance. Clark takes Bizarro's best punch, then uppercuts him high into the sky, where Martian Manhunter takes him away.
At the Talon
Lois was trying to go asleep, but couldn't because she couldn't take her mind off of what happen earlier so she decided to get a cup water to help her go to sleep. She pour herself some water and was about to go back to bed when she felt a strange pain from her stomach, dropping the cup in her hand and collapse on the floor in pain.
A moment later, Chloe walk in and saw Lois getting up from the floor.
"Oh my god Lois, what happened," She rushed over to Lois and saw the broken glass "Are you okay?'
"I'm okay Chlo, I broke a cup that's all," Lois replied.
"Here let me help you," Chloe helps Lois pick the broken glass and then sweep the rest of pieces with the broom.
"Are you sure you okay Lois," Chloe asked again to make sure.
Lois sat down on the bed and looked at Chloe "The truth is that my stomach was hurting badly earlier before you came home and now it's better," she told her cousin.
Chloe went over sat next to Lois "Lois, you need to go see the doctor," she said.
"It's ok, it's probably that I didn't eat this afternoon, but I'll go the doctor tomorrow morning" Lois replied with a smile.
Chloe sighs and smile "I'm just looking out for you that's all".
"I know Chloe and I would do the same for you too," Lois said.
Lois and Chloe were silent for awhile when Chloe spoke up again "Do you want to talk about what happen at the dam?"
"Now that mention, I want to get it out in the open Chlo," Lois said.
"What is it Lois?" Chloe asked, anxious to know what Lois wants to said.
"I know you a meteor freak Chloe," Lois told her cousin.
Chloe's eyes widen "Lois?"
Lois shook her head "You don't have to hide it from me Chloe; it was you that heal me right?"
Chloe sighs and nodded her head. Lois gave Chloe a hug "I want you to know that I'm here for you Chloe," she said and then got up.
"Thanks Lois," Chloe said with a smile.
Lois gave Chloe a smile and then went to her bed.
Chloe went to her bed and lay down in it, staring at the ceiling. She knew something wrong with Lois, but decided to let Lois tell her about it when she ready. Just in case, Chloe decided she might well investigate what's going with Lois. Chloe closes her eyes and let the sleep take over.
In the Morning at the Kent's Place
Clark was sitting at the couch, listen the radio when Chloe arrived "Clark?" She walked over to him and notices that he moping. She turns off the radio "I know you want to be alone, but I thought I drop by to see if I can get more than two words out of you," she said.
"Thanks Chloe, but I think I'm going to take a rain check" was Clark respond.
"Yeah I think you deserve peace and quiet after you sent the evil bobsie twin to other side of mar," Chloe said as she sat down next Clark.
At the Medical Center
Lois was in a room on the bed, with a hospital gown on when a woman walk in a doctor suit.
"So what is result doc, what's wrong?" she said, once the door was closes.
The doctor gave her the folder "I think you should take a look at it," she said.
Lois opens the folder and her eyes widen when she saw the result.
"I'm going to give you some pills to drink," the doctor told her.
Lois slightly nodded and took a box of pills from the doctor "Thanks doc," she said.
Back at the Kent's Place
Clark told Chloe that he wasn't sure there was much difference between him and Bizarro. He admits that when he learned of Lana's death, he intended to kill Lex. Chloe assures him that his human upbringing and that his reluctance to actually do it proves that there is indeed a difference and that she would be there for him. They were silent for a while when Clark mentions what happen at dam "Whatever happened at dam Chloe," he said but interrupt by Chloe "It's was nothing," she said.
"I just want to tell when you ready you can tell me about it," Clark finished what he was saying.
"Thanks," Chloe said, hoping to avoid the subject because she knew that it also involve Lois in so she not ready to tell Clark and she figure out herself.
Lois walk in and Clark and Chloe stood up from the couch.
"Lois," Clark said, surprised to see her.
"I forgive you Clark," She told him
Clark is a little confused, not understanding what's going on.
She walked up to Clark and surprisingly gave him a hug. She then sincerely expresses her condolences. Lois didn't told him what he did instead she threatens that if he ever tries that again, she will tear his head off. Lois left leaving Clark speechless and Chloe with a smirk on her face, knowing that Bizarro Clark must have done something to pissed Lois off.
"Sober by Kelly Clarkson" was playing in the background.
At the Talon apartment, Lois was burning some papers in the sink, staring at it. Lex is put back in jail while looking at a photograph of him and Lana. In Shanghai, China, a blonde woman is walking down a busy street. She enters her apartment and takes off a wig. It is revealed to be Lana Lang. She looks up to the moon from her window at the same time as Clark. The mysterious woman that saved Lex sits atop the Smallville water tower. Now wearing regular clothes, she puts on the bracelet and flies away above the town.
