Lying Snake

Prologue

Chloe woke up groggily. Her head pounded with pain, her throat burned, her legs extremely sore, and her body sticky. She could barely breath it was so hot, she was sweating. She tried to stand, but fell to the ground as glass shards penetrated her skin at the base of her foot. She screamed from the pain, but managed to crawl a good distance from the glass and fireplace. Now that she was a little cooler, she glanced around at her surroundings. She was in a study. Not just any study, but Lex's study. Yet there was no sign of Lex. She noticed the darkness of the sky, and realized how late it was. But worst off, no one would come looking for her because her father was out of town and she was headed to Metropolis for some down time. Everyone knew she did not want to be disturbed. She contemplated calling out for Clark, surely he'd hear her, but then Lex would no doubt be suspicious, especially if he was watching her right now.

Chloe sighed and dug the glass out of her feet one shard at a time. Once she finished, she grabbed onto the side of Lex's desk and pulled herself up onto her now burning, bloody feet. She didn't know how she got here. Last thing she remembered was being stuck in a chair with FBI agents interrogating her. And that was it. No wait, that wasn't true. She also remembered a slight pinch on her neck. Was she drugged? Chloe scoffed at herself. 'Well, duh, of course I was drugged. Testing the strength of her legs, she slowly made her way to the door, the very far away door. She was in a tremendous amount of pain. Finally, she reached the door and pulled onto it. Half expecting it to be locked from the outside, she was delighted that it swung open. She squeezed through the opening, since she didn't have enough strength to pull the door open all the way. Leaving trail of blood, she walked down the hall.

Relief hit her body as the coolness of the hallway calmed her down. She was really hoping she'd not run into any security, considering they might know of Lex intentions of her. She was so close now. She could see the opening of the foier, all she had to do was get there, then to the door, and she'd be home free.

But then just like a shadow, Lex appeared in front of her. "Now, where might you be headed?" He smirked and Chloe whimpered. And tears escaped her eyes as he grabbed her and tossed her to a couple security men, two Chloe had not seen before in her life.

"Lex, please…"She started, but he turned his back on her.

"Have her washed down and placed in the locked room. And get someone to clean up her mess." He ordered then walked the way to the foier, her previous destination.

"Lex!" Chloe yelled as the two men dragged her off.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

She was taken somewhere on the lower levels of the mansion. That being the lower levels she never knew existed. She was then taken inside a square room with a huge hose and a small drain in the center on the ground. Fear enveloped her as they stripped her of her dress and threw her into the middle of the room. The taller of the two then grabbed the hose and turned it on, then turned it towards her. Chloe was knocked back by the pressure and desperately tried to block it, but that was of no use. They continued to water her down for the next fifteen minutes.

Before she knew it, the water stopped and they grabbed her naked form and pulled a brown straw dress over her head. Without drying her off, they dragged her down a few hallways; making turns when necessary, and stopped at a door at the end of one long hallway. The door was opened, and she was tossed inside. They closed the door and left. Left her in the dark all alone.

A/N: So that's the beginning. Interesting so far? Let me know what you think. Sorry so short, later chapters will be longer. Please review!!
