This is about Clark being a hero during September 11th , 2001.
Clark began his day like every other. Waking up and superspeeding right into his regular everyday scheme. He woke up , got dressed and super sped throughout his morning duties. He fed the cows, mucked the stalls, and picked eggs from the chicken coops. He would then go on to shower , eat some breakfast before going to school.
" Bye mom," He yelled as he sped away .
He arrived at school and proceeded to his locker than " The Torch " newspaper office. He greeted his best friend Chloe and began check his email. He noticed Chloe was strangely quiet. He hadn't even thought to why she didn't have some sort of a banter of some kind about his plaid shirt of the cheerleaders.
" Chloe are you ok?"
" Clark... you have no idea what happened this morning did you?"
" Uh... not really what?"
" Clark...there's been an attack. "
" An attack?"
" A plane has just crashed into the world trade center in New York. How can you have no idea what is going on? Clark ..."Chloe's emerald eyes began to water up. A single tear ran down her light cheek
" I..I had no idea. " He said stuttering and speechless.
" That's not the end of it, millions of pepole are dying there , and to add to it there was two more attacks. "
Clark sat in slience.
" Where?" He managed to whisper
" One struck the pentagon in Washington ...an...a...and the other, was headed for the white house and the passengers took control of the plane and crashed it in a wheat field in Pennsylvania. "
" Oh my god!" He muttered and took cover of his mouth .
Then an announcement came over the loud speaker.
"Students , due to today's tradgedy's , we are releasing school early , go home and be with your families. "
" Chloe.. I have to go. " He said hugging her .
" Bye Clark."
" Bye" he said, as he walked out of the office and found an alley to super speed home from.
"Mom...Dad.."
" We heard son , the ledger rushed over a emergency edition. The haven't done that since the meteor shower." Johnathon stated.
" Dad, I have to go, I have to go help the pepole. "
" Clark...you can't" Martha whispered
" What do you mean I can't? I can lift those bricks off of the people , I can rush them to saftey...I can help. "
" We can't let you go out there and reveal your secret like that. "
" Even if I can save millions of people? That's not worth the risk!"
" Clark!"
" No I will be back later tonight I have to go.." He said grabbing his coat
" Clark Kent! " Johnathan yelled.
" Dad."
" Clark if you must go you need some sort of protection to hide your face. "
" Dad, I will be so fast with the pepole they wont know what hit them. "
" Clark , please just wear some thing. " Martha said pressing the issue.
" Fine I will wear a hat Happy?"
" No..No.. you need to cover your face, " Johanthan said
" What if he wore some sort of a pair of glasses?"
" Good Idea hold on..." Martha said before running to the junk dwar.
" Here I punched the lenses out of these reading glasses so they wont fog up and you will be able to see. "
Clark put them on.
"Good?"
" Great , and son?"
" Yeah dad?"
" Today you make me more proud to say that's my son, than ever before. I am so proud of you I do not have words to describe the feeling I have inside of me right now. " He said while hugging and patting him on the back .
" Go now , make us proud ." Martha said with a kiss on his cheek.
" I love you guys. "
" I love you too. They both said. "
