Lana drove her Hybrid into the alley behind the Daily Planet. A black Lincoln car was already park with its lights on, the sky was darkening, and night was coming again. As she parked a man exited the Lincoln. She stepped out of her car and walked over to the man, anger in her face.

" Who the hell do you think you are going to see Clark," Lana shouted at the man.

" Last time I checked, you weren't in charge, so cool off your sweet little head before your curls flatten themselves," Matt stepped into the light and smiled at Lana.

" Last time I checked, I was the only thing holding, this so-called trust with Clark, together." Lana snapped back at him. " So I think we should start playing by my rules."

" Listen Goldie Locks, I don't have time for this, the world is at stake, and I could give a damn about your feelings towards Kal-El." He said.

" His name is Clark!"

" His name is Kal-El, weather you like or not! He's not human, he's kryptonian and he will save this planet."

" You say that like he doesn't want to." Lana said.

" If the Brain Interactive Construct gets control of him, he won't want to."

" There's no way to control Clark, Lex already tried it." Lana responded, " It only took Clarks powers away."

" And who feed you that piece of information, Clark or the Archer?" Lana looked at him, Matt handed Lana a white rock.

" What is this?" she asked him.

" Its White Kryptonite, any kryptonian exposed to this becomes an automatic puppet," Lana looked at him in shock. " It makes your victim do what ever you want, and there's no way that we could find, to brake the trace until the victim did what they were asked. After Clark went to the past, pieces of this showed up all over Kansas. I've done my best to collect it all, but I know I missed some."

Lana gave him the rock, " what do you want me to do."

" Just what I ask you, Lana I'm on your side, so you don't have to worry."

Lighting sparked through the air with a loud clap.

" What was that," Lana turned to the sky to she what had happen.

Matt looked at his watch, " Things are right on schedule, they should be here now." Matt turned to get back in his car.

Lana watched him, " Who should be here?"

" The Legion, they're here to save Chloe, you should get going." He drove off into the street.

Lana looked into the sky, walked to her car and drove off too.

A man came out of a shadowy corner; he seemed to be listening to the entire conversation. He lifted a phone to his ear.

" Miss Mercer, I followed Miss Lang as ordered, she met with that Detective, they were talking about a Kryptonian named Kal-El, who, from what they said, is…" loud static came through the phone. The man dropped it as he held his ear.

A bright light came into the alley, blinding the man; he couldn't see anything but a shadowy figure it. Then the lights went out and a man emerged. Tall, muscular, and wearing tons of steel. A Steel helmet and chest piece with knee and calf steel plates too. In his right hand was an axe, a long steel axe on a wooden handle.

He examined his surroundings. He looked at the man as he still held he's ear. As he walked over to him the earth shook beneath him, he stopped in front of the man.

" WHERE IS SUPERMAN?" he shouted at the man.

" Who the hell are you?"

" I'm The Persuader, now, where is your so-called Man of Steel?"

" I don't know what you're talking about,"

" Who do you obey?"

" Listen buddy, you don't scare me, and I don't have to answer any of your questions."

" Find, I guess I'll just have to persuade you too,"

" What?" The Persuader raised his axe and slammed it over the man's head, cutting him clean in half.

" I will find you Superman, and you will died, there will be no Man of Tomorrow, not today, and certainly not in the future."
