So here is another update and hope you all enjoy

Disclaimer: Same as usual, i'm too poa (poor by the way)

Chloe walked into the inviting build known as the New York Times. She let out a relieved sigh as the energetic air released some of her stress. Ah just what I need to take my mind off my current predicament she thought.

She smiled as she walked into her office, well cubicle really but she didn't mind. It would do for now. She sat down and took out some things from her bag including her most prized possession, her laptop. She began to research and review leads she had been working on.

Nearly two hours later and she had gotten nowhere. Her mind was plagued with last night's events. Flashbacks would suddenly appear making her squirm and lose her concentration. She knew that she had to push them out of her mind but every time she tried her mind would recall images of Oliver naked in front of her, glistening. His body so wonderfully hot and hard on hers. The feel of his hands roaming her entire body bringing pleasure to her she could not ever remember experiencing. The look in his eyes as he brought her to her finish, a look of hunger, lust, satisfaction, and something she couldn't quite place. She remembered the sound he had made as he released soon after her, a mix between a moan and a sigh. She shivered at the memory unable to suppress her own moan from escaping.

"SULLIVAN!" a voice yelled making her jump and snap her out of her daydream.

She recognized the voice to be none other than her new boss Bill Keller. Not wanting to upset him she stood up fixed her clothing as best as she could and tried to suppress the flush from her earlier thoughts. She walked into his office and waited for him to address her. After a few minutes she started to get anxious and began fidgeting. She looked up suddenly when he coughed, obviously signaling her attention.

"Do you plan on sitting or would you rather stand around all day?" he questioned with a smirk.

"Oh…um right," Chloe nervously sat in the chair across his desk feeling a bit flustered. "So what is it exactly that you needed sir?" she asked the curiosity getting the better of her.

"Well I have a story you might be interested in. Now normally I wouldn't give a story such as this one to a new reporter," she began to interrupt and he silenced her with a look. "I meant new to this paper. Anyway as I was saying I usually don't give a newcomer a story like this but it seems you know some of the influential people in this case" he stated looking at her curiously.

"What exactly is the story about and who could I possibly know that would be involved?" she asked quizzically hoping it wasn't a certain blonde billionaire with a fetish for green leather.

"Well it seems that there are certain questionable activities going on downtown such as the usual drug deals, illegal weapons and other normal criminal activities. The unusual part has to do with the obvious elabortness of the deals and the strange people who handle them." Keller tossed her a file, which contained various statements of the activities in question.

"There have been eye-witness accounts of some of the people having certain abilities although none of the witnesses have been able to identify any of them no doubt due to the so called "abilities" they have." He scoffed at the idea waiting for Chloe's reaction.

Chloe leafed through the file examining the statements carefully, afraid to speak. Only one place could have created these people that the witnesses had claimed to seen. And only one person controlled them. No matter how hard she tried to escape she just couldn't seem to find a way out. Physically she could leave that cursed town, Smallville. Yet she knew that she could never truly escape from its grasp.

Not betraying any emotions except for the slight shaking of her hands, she handed the file back to Keller; luckily the slight sign of nerves went unnoticed by him.

"What exactly is so special about this story aside from the "mutants"?" Chloe questioned trying to keep the fear from her voice, already knowing the answer but dreading it nonetheless.

"Well we believe that the man behind the whole operation is none other than Lex Luthor himself. Aside from that we also have reason to believe that the whole thing is a cover up for something much bigger." He replied waiting for her opinion.

"How can you be so sure? He is Lex Luthor as you said and he is certainly capable of acquiring a drug ring. Maybe that's all it is." Even as she said the words, Chloe knew they weren't true. She knew Lex and this was most definitely not his style.

"Sullivan you and I both know that isn't true. Luthor is not one to dirty his hands with something like this. So as you know him personally I am making it your duty to find out what exactly is going on, by any means necessary." Keller glared at her daring her to object. When there was no reply he smiled triumphantly and with a wave of his hand she was dismissed.

As Chloe walked out of his office she felt as if she were going to be sick. She quickly made her way back to her desk trying to calm herself down.

O.K. she thought everything going to be fine. I'll just snoop around dig up a little dirt get the story and never even come into contact with Lex. Ohh who am I kidding, like that's going to happen. Well on the plus side I definitely have a distraction from my earlier problem she chuckled to herself. Then immediately sobered up remembering the seriousness of the situation. Oh man I knew I shouldn't have moved to the city. I knew it. Damn it what the hell have I gotten myself into she thought as she sunk into her chair with a defeated sigh.

So there you go not much happened but i just wanted to bring in the whole chloe/ reporter got a story thing. don't worry chloe and ollie will be seeing each other again as well as other characters. The action/adventure will start to play in as well as the drama/romance. Oh and also i actually researched the new york time to find out who the editor was. And when i say research i mean i totally googled it. still be proud of me even if the info is wrong. so anyway if you feel like leaving me some sort of message in i oh i don't know, review form i wouldn't object. thanks! later
