Clark wanted to talk to the girl again, to ask her any of the millions of questions in his head. What had she done for the years since the crash? What did she remember about Krypton? And their parents? Had she spoken with Jor-el? He wanted to know everything, but first he needed answers she couldn't give him. For that there was only one person.

Chloe was sitting in her dorm when he knocked. She jumped up to meet him. She was looking optimistic as ever, cappuccino in hand.

"Clark! Hey what's going on? Your message was rather cryptic."

"Yeah, I didn't really think it was something we should talk about over the phone."

"So… what is it?"

"Have you ever heard of Lera Grady?"

"No, why? Who is she?"

Clark took in a deep breath. "She's my sister."

Chloe nearly choked on her cappuccino. "She's what? Like, your real sister? Crazy alien powers and all?"

Clark smiled, count on Chloe to put it so delicately. "Something like that. Yeah."

"So do you believe her? I mean, do you really think she's your biological sister?"

"I'm starting to; I'd like a little background on her though."

"Coming right up." In a flash Chloe was on her computer typing a mile a minute. Within seconds she had pulled up and printed complete biographical information on Lera Grady.

"It says here she was found, alone, in Smallville the day after the meteor shower," Clark read. "She was adopted by a Mr. and Mrs. David Grady. They moved to Ohio soon after."

"That's strange," Chloe commented, staring at the paper she was holding. "There's no record of her before the meteor shower, no birth certificate, nothing. She claimed her name was Lera, but no one on the missing persons list matched that name." She looked up at Clark. "Its like she just appeared out of thin air on the day of the meteor shower."

That was enough to convince Clark. He had a sister. There was no other explanation for all of this. He had a sister.

He hurriedly thanked Chloe and left to find Lera.

Please review; let me know how I am doing.
