Discovering My Origins
Disclaimer: This is a crossover of sorts between Smallville and the Arrowverse, only the Particle Accelerator went off in 1989 and was wide spread of the whole planet where its effects are concerned.
Summary: The arrival of the Kryptonian race in search of one of their own brings forth answers to one particular individual.
For weeks, two members of the Kryptonian race known as Jor-El and Lara searched dilligently for their missing son, Kal-El. Who'd been stolen from them on orders by a former friend of theirs by the name of General Dru-Zod. The big reveal of Aliens truly existing had prompted the worlds of the government to give whatever aide they could. If only in the hopes it would allow them to reap the benefits of such a thing. But so far, nothing had turned out yet and the Els were beginning to despair while one young boy by the name of Clark Kent from Smallville, Kansas, wanted to go and see if he was the one they were looking for. But so far, his parents, his father especially, weren't too willing to allow it.
"Clark… I know you don't like the idea of it, but you're gonna have to go against their wishes if you want to truly know if you are the one they seek." His girlfriend, Kyla Willowbrook of the Kawatche people, told him as she watched him pace about in an angry manner after having another argument with his parents about the whole thing.
Kyla, having heard the legend of Naman growing up, believed Clark to be him and even had told him as much while telling him of the legend as well. Something he wasn't too certain about as it seemed a little out there but then again, since it kind of mirrored him in a way where his gifts were concerned, it was at the same time, not that out there. His parents, while they deeply loved him, feared for what could happen to him if he was discovered. They also believed this whole Kryptonian thing to be nothing more than some kind of elaborate hoax and that was another reason Jonathan refused to let him go and seek them out at the United Nations building.
Letting out a sigh as he stopped pacing and looked at his girlfriend, Clark knew he was right and said as much. "If I don't try, I'll never know and I'll hate that for the rest of my life." He said anxiously.
Kyla stepped up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. "Then go. If I'm asked, I'll just tell them you and Lex went off to Metropolis."
"Oh, sure, get me in even more trouble why don't you." Mock grumbled the boy with a smile on his face as she smiled as well with a chuckle.
"It is a favorite past time." She said cheekily, making him roll his eyes fondly before kissing her.
"Thank you."
"Anytime. Now, go get your answers."
Smiling in appreciation, Clark sped off, leaving his girlfriend behind in his Barn Loft. "Good luck, baby." She murmured softly before leaving the Loft herself to head on home.
A Little While Later
Winded, Clark arrived at the United Nations building that was essentially the headquarters for the search for the missing child known as Kal-El. There were thousands waiting for their chance to know if they were the one the Kryptonians were searching for but Clark didn't have time to wait and sped carefully into the building and arrived right in front of the two known as Jor-El and Lara. Startling them and several others in the process. "I think I may be the one you're searching for. I've got speed, I'm invulnerable, my eyes shoot heat, I have a lot of strength, and my powers come from the Sun."
Something he'd found out the hard way when the Sun had some issues going on awhile back. Jor-El and Lara looked at him and then at one another before looking to him again. "How do we know you aren't lying to us, boy?" Asked the man gruffly.
"I did just speed in front of you."
"Yes, but there are others who possess this ability from our understanding." Lara told him.
Clark just sighed. "Look, all I'm asking for is a chance, okay? If this doesn't work out, I'll personally apologize to everyone here and never show my face outside of where I live ever again." He told them earnestly.
Jor-El narrowed his eyes at the boy and decided to go for it. If only to get him on his way. "Very well, place your hand on the bio-scanner and let's get this over with."
Nervously, Clark did so and the scanner did its thing and then… It turned green. Making the couple and several others look at him sharply. "Aunt Lara!?" Asked a nearby Kara in shock.
"Umm…"
"By Rao!" Shouted Jor-El as Lara rushed around the table and hugged her baby boy with tears coming down her face.
"WE'VE FOUND OUR SON!" Shouted Jor-El in stunned disbelief and happiness.
Mutterings of shock were heard followed shortly after by cheers and word was quickly spread to those outside and by those who were representatives of their respective media outlets. Jor-El and Kara both joined in on the tearful but heartfelt reunion as Clark found himself greatly relieved that he finally knew where he came from.
Author's Notes: Aren't family reunions great?
