Prologue: Seven years after Superman Returns. Richard broke up the engagement with Lois because he couldn't accept the fact that Jason wasn't his son, but was Superman's. Superman revealed to Lois that he and Clark Kent were the same person. A year later, Clark and Lois married and had another son, Adam Kent. Fast forward to six years, a now 12 year old Jason, with the IQ of 180, shows early signs of his powers. Tired of hiding his powers, Jason decides to use powers in a way that will shock everyone in Metropolis...
Chapter One: A Hero is Born
It was bright sunny day. Clark woke up next to the love of his life, Lois. She was still sleeping, silently snoring.
She's so beautiful, Clark thought, then kissed Lois on the forehead. He quietly got out of bed, trying not to wake up his wife. Clark put on his glasses and walked out of his room and into the hallway. He was in front of Adam's room. Clark slowly opened the door and peeked inside. Little Adam was sleeping so peacefully in his Power Ranger bed sheets. Clark smiled at the five year old boy. He continued to walk to the kitchen. But when he got there, he was a bit surprised to see Jason.
"Oh, good morning Jason", Clark said to his son.
"Hey", Jason said. Clark noticed the tune of voice of the boy was somewhat sad.
"What's wrong?" Clark asked.
"I had a nightmare", Jason replied.
"What was it about?"
"Well", Jason began. " I dreamt that you fighting this guy and this killed you really bad and watched the whole thing and couldn't help you at all".
"Wow", Was all Clark could say.
"And when I woke up, uh, lets just say there were two holes on the ceiling", Jason said with a chuckle.
"Your heat vision?" Clark asked.
Jason nodded.
"I didn't develop heat vision until I was fourteen", Clark said. "You should get ready for school"
Just then Adam run into the kitchen, jumping up and down.
"Hi Daddy!" Adam chirped.
"Hey , little guy", Clark said as he picked up his son.
Adam got his looks from Clark. With his black hair and blue eyes, he was the miniature version of Clark.
Later That morning
Everyone was eating breakfast. After breakfast, Lois and Clark went outside into the SUV. Since they work at the same place, having one car was convenient enough. Clark was wearing an average black suit and tie, while Lois was in a business suit with a skirt.
"Okay guys have a great day at school", Lois said and kissed Jason and Adam on the foreheads. Then she entered the car. The car pulled out of the driveway. The two boys waved good bye.
Jason, who was wearing a yellow sleeveless sweater with a white long sleeve shirt underneath and black rimmed, looked down at his brother and smiled.
"You ready?" Jason asked. Adam nodded excitedly.
Jason knelt down and Adam got on his back.
ZOOM!
Running at the speed of 90 mph, Jason dashed to school with Adam on his back. Jumping from tree to tree, Adam was having a great time. Sure, he and his brother did this every morning, but it didn't matter, each time was like a roller coaster ride...even though they may land in some bushes once in a while
The wind was blowing through Jason's hair. His parents always told him not to use his powers in public, but sometimes he does anyway. But it's not his fault that his father happens to be the Man of Steel. One time he used his X ray vision to peek into the girls' locker room.
Good Times.
In less than three minutes, the two boy were in front of Jefferson Elementary, Adam's school. Jason knelt down and Adam climbed off his back.
"Bye Jason!" Adam said and departed into the building.
Jason just waved and made his way to his school, Metropolis Middle School, which was down the street.
Daily Planet
"Kents! Report to my office!" barked Perry.
Clark and Lois scurried through the Daily Planet office.
"What do you think Perry wants?" Lois asked.
"You know Perry, it's probably about Superman", Clark said.
The couple entered Perry's office.
"Ah there you are! Business has been slow since the crime rate of the city is low, thanks to Superman", Perry explained. "But lately LexCorp's CEO Lex Luther has been acting strangely."
Clark tensed up at the name of his arch foe. He and Luther were enemies for years.
"So I want you two to find some dirt on him. After all, you two are married", Perry said with a chuckle.
Lois rolled her eyes. "When do you want this due?" she asked.
"Next week, you can go now".
The couple exited the office.
Lois was sitting at her desk, ready to type something on her computer. "What's the title gonna be?"
"Hmm", Clark (who's desk was next to his wife's) contemplated. "How about 'LexCorp's CEO Acting Strange'?".
"Uh, maybe not," Lois said. "You're not great with titles", She teased.
"Thanks", Clark said dryly, but he smiled and pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose.
BUMP! BUMP!
With his super hearing, he could hear what sounds to be foot steps. Big foot steps.
Lois noticed Clark's sudden silence. "What's wrong?", After she asked that, she, as well as everyone else in the office, could hear the foot steps, too.
Everyone looked outside the windows. No one could believe their eyes.
A Giant robot.
Lois and Clark glanced at each other.
"What are you waiting for? Go!" Lois whispered.
"Right", Clark replied, and headed for the elevator.
Outside of Daily Planet
The giant robot got the attention of everyone. It was round, making it look fat. Each 'hand' had three fingers.
When Superman entered the scene, the crowd was immediately relieved.
"Oh my God", Was all he could say.
Strange, Clark thought. This thing looks like robot from those 'anime' shows that Jason watches. I think they're called 'mecha' or something.
Superman's thoughts were interrupted as a large metal arm smacked him to a nearby building. He tried to regain balance, but the robot was facing him.
"Target locked", The machine said in a monotone voice."Destroy the Blue Boy Scout".
Superman , at first was confused, but quickly realises who's behind this.
Luther.
Before he could react, a missile was heading towards him. But he grabbed the missile and threw it back at the robot. It's right arm flew off. The arm was about to land on a crowd of people.
Clark was about to help them, but another missile came at him and this time, it got him. His attention was on the doomed people. Everything happened so fast, even for him.
Red and Blue streaks passed him. The large arm seemed to stopped midair, just about five feet above the crowd. The arm swung towards the robot, slamming it hard into the ground sideways. People scurried to get out of the robot's way. Suddenly the figure that saved the crowd earlier made himself known.
"Um, is everyone okay?" The floating figure asked. The crowd was in shock, eyes wide, jaws dropped.
The figure was a boy.
After Clark took care of the missile, he got a better look at the boy. The mysterious boy had brown hair down to his chin. He was wearing a blue T-shirt, with the infamous 'S' emblem over his chest, blue jeans and red running shoes. What shocked Clark to the point of speechlessness was who the boy was.
Jason.
After three minutes of silence, everyone who was watching the fight cheered. Jason smiled sheepishly and waved. Back at the Daily Planet, everyone inside also clapped and cheered.
"Olsen! Get a picture of that kid! NOW!" Perry yelled.
"Yes sir!" Jimmy eagerly replied and took a picture from inside.
"Get closer!" Perry barked.
"Oh", And Jimmy made his way outside.
Lois, still in shock, didn't pay much attention to what Perry was saying.
"Kent, forget the Lex Luther, I want you and Clark to get as much information you can on this kid! I can see the headline now 'Superboy: The New Superhero in Town!'
"What?" Lois mumbled, snapping back to reality.
"I want you to do an article about that kid!"
"Y-yeah", whispered Lois.
Back outside, people crowded around Jason. Clark floated into the crowd.
"Young man, where did your powers?" A female reporter asked, as she shoved a microphone into Jason's face.
"Um...", Jason mumbled.
"Where did you get your costume?" Another reporter asked.
"Are you related to Superman?"
"I think that's enough questions", Clark intervened. Jason nodded in agreement.
The father and son started to fly home. But first, they need to change.
"You have a lot to explain when we get home", Clark scolded.
