Authors Note: Okay I decided it was time for me to put up or shut up, after years of reading fics it was time to contribute. I'm going to make two notices right now. This is a Smallville and Clana rewrite of the Christopher Reeve Superman films. Basically it will be her POV of the events of 1 and 2 as a bystander until we get to 3 where she finally becomes a participant. I put fans on notice that while this IS a Clana story it will take a few chapters to get there; fear not there is no Clois. Also be gentle this is my first fic but also don't be afraid to give a REAL review, good or bad. Also this is without beta; if anyone would like to beta it in the future drop me a line.

DISCLAIMER: I own neither Smallville nor Superman and I am not making any profit from the writing of this fic.

WITNESS TO GREATNESS

Prologue

Lana Lang stood before the weddings alter placed in the atrium of Lex's mansion ready to commit herself for the rest of her life to Lex Luthor. For the last three months she had been filled with a feeling of elation at the thought of her wedding to Lex but now that they day had arrived all she felt was cold fear.

"This is a mistake", Lana thought to herself in a panic. First she looked to her groom Lex Luthor in the hopes that her feelings for him would calm her nerves. Lex peered back at her with wolf eye's that made Lana look away. Finding no comfort there she turned her eyes to the wedding crowd but already she knew this was futile, there was no one there for her. Just Lex's business associates and Nell's friends, the only three other people in the world she could consider her friends were not in attendance at the ceremony. Lois Lane had packed up all her belongings after her breakup with Oliver Queen and had decided to commit herself totally to her just starting career at the Inquisitor. What happened to Chloe was a total mystery to her. Just a few months ago before Lana had gone on a trip to Paris with her Aunt Nell, Chloe had been following her dream of becoming a reporter but when she had returned from Paris Chloe had undergone a startling metamorphosis. Chloe had decided that journalism was not her calling and had decided to pursue something she had only vaguely described as babysitting 4 big babies who really needed her, she had left soon after. Of course it was no mystery why Clark wasn't here; he had barely even looked at her after that night in the loft. When he did she could see a look in his eyes that haunted her, not a look of disgust but one of utter defeat. Lana felt so incredibly lonely. Finally as a last resort Lana grasped her stomach and focused on her little miracle, her Richard. That was what she had decided to name her son; it was amazing how much you could love a person you hadn't even met yet. For Richard Lana continued to proceed through the ceremony, for Richard she said "I do", while at the same time she felt her soul cave in on itself.

Finally the preacher said," Should there be anyone who know why these two should not be joined in holy matrimony let them speak now or forever hold their peace".

Inwardly Lana begged fate," please help me", and in that exact moment fate answered.

The doors of the atrium slammed open and an armed SWAT team trailed by men in suits flooded the atrium. One of those men approached the alter and said, "Lex Luthor I'm FBI agent John Stewart and I am placing you under arrest for multiple charges of kidnapping and torture, not to mention the state department and homeland security would like to have a discussion with you about some pertinent information and events you felt privy to withhold from the government".

"That's totally ridiculous", Lex sneered," you have no proof, I'll have your badge for this!"

"Actually Luthor a little green birdie told us all we needed to know," with that the agent gave a wry look at Lex", ever heard of 33.1 Mr. Luthor?"

With that Lex took a look that was both horror and shock, took one look at Lana and began to charge his way towards the door. Lex didn't get far before he was tackled by the SWAT.

"You'll all pay for this, everyone will pay for this, I'm a greater man then all of you I WILL REMAKE THE WORLD!" Lex screamed as he was pulled away by the FBI.

Lana sat at the alter feeling completely numb, she honestly didn't know how to feel about what just happened she wanted to weep when she saw someone standing in the doorway; Clark. Like a moth to flame Lana went to him part of her overjoyed to see him and the other part of her curious as to why he was here at all. However when she reached him all that melted away into a desire to be held by him but Clark held put his hands and stopped her from getting any closer.

"Lana', said Clark with a deep feeling of sadness reverberating from his voice,' It's time for me to leave'.

"What", Lana squeaked. Clark was going to leave too?

I promised myself I would do something once I finished a task and now it's done".

"Where you going", Lana managed to say, her heart breaking a little bit more every second.

"North", Clark said in a tone Lana recognized as one that meant he wouldn't be forthcoming with anymore information.

Lana looked Clark straight in the eyes and asked", why are you here"?

"Because Lana I had to tell you that I lied, I do love you and in case we never see each other again I wanted to wish you a good life"

Lana looked down for a moment overcome by emotion when she heard a noise

//WHOOOOOOOOOOOOSH// that made her look up. Clark was gone and then Lana did weep/
