Chloe wanted to leave right then. She wanted to get this Black K and just leave with Davis. She didn't want to see two people who she cared about destroy each other. There had to be something they could do. Then Dax said,

"Well, that test told us some but we need to know…"

Chloe screamed, "No! If it involves those two fighting then absolutely not! No good could come from it!"

Chloe said still attached to Davis' side. Chloe didn't want to let go of him, afraid if she did that he would change again.

Then Davis said, "We need to do what ever it takes to get this thing out of me."

Chloe shook her head, "There has to be some other way."

Then Clark said having a difficult time looking at Chloe or Davis, "Chloe, we have to figure this out here. So no one else can get hurt. Do you think Davis and I can have a word privately?"

Chloe raised on eye brow skeptically. She didn't like that one bit. That meant she had to leave Davis' side. She would have to let go of him. She would be apart from him. There was a chance he would change again.

Then Davis whispered affectionate and comfortingly, "Chloe it's going to be ok. Just give us a minute."

Chloe couldn't say no to that so she let him go and she gave them some space to talk. Chloe stood by a large crystal pillar looking at the scene. Clark and Davis really didn't like each other. Their body language was speaking of their equal loath for each other. They spoke in hushed slightly angry tones. Both seeming to hold things in, trying to be pleasant. Chloe could tell all they wanted to do was punch each other. Chloe admired their effort in trying to be civil. She appreciated that they both wanted the same things they wanted to stop this monster and get it out of Davis.

Chloe leaned against the crystal pillar and suddenly it started to glow. Chloe turned around and saw a small crystal floating in the air towards her. Chloe picked it up and touched it. Suddenly she was surrounded by a big bright light. Then she saw the amazing colors surrounding her. They looked like Kryptonian symbols. She saw them before when Clark showed her Dr. Swann's journal but she had no idea what they meant. She had no idea what was going on.

Then suddenly she found her self in a strange closet. The door was some kind of metallic, but it had very cool and stoic colors. The door was cracked and she saw Davis in a bed. She realized he was lying in his bare chest covered with white ruffled sheets and then a woman's hand went over him. Chloe froze, shocked. Chloe wanted to scream and throw that girl off of him. What was Davis doing? Was he just with this woman? What was going on? Then the woman with long dark blonde hair started to kiss him sweetly like she was just waking up. Davis grazed his hand through her hair admiring her. How could he?

Chloe felt on the brink of despair. It hurt. She thought for once she found someone who only had eyes for her. What was she doing? She was married to Jimmy not Davis. Davis could be with anyone he wanted to be with. She just thought it was nice to be the only object of someone's affection it made her feel special. She knew she had to forget about this petty jealousy thing. She was here to help Davis to find information so she could help get the monster out. This wasn't about her or Davis' feelings it was about saving the world. She had to focus. Why oh why did Davis always make it hard for her to focus?

She looked back at Davis and this other woman and ignored the impulse to go in there and throw that scank off of him. She had no right. Davis didn't belong to her. That was her choice. Then she saw this woman sit up covering herself up with the covers. Then she started to really look at her. She realized that she recognized this woman with dark blonde hair and purple eyes. She was Raya she met her briefly she was Jor-el's lab assistant. She saved Clark's life twice. She ended up dying for him. Then she realized Davis did look different. His eyes were darker. There was a dint on his chin. He looked older than Davis.

Then Raya sighed and said, "Oh, Zod."

She couldn't believe it. Raya was a hero. She had done everything to protect Krypton so she thought. She had risked her life to save Clark's to make sure he would save this world from the same doom of Krypton. But why in the world would Raya be with Zod, the evil dictator who was responsible for the destruction of Krypton?

Then Raya got out of bed and put on a white tunic. Zod went after her just wearing cotton pants. Then he put his arms around her.

"Don't leave yet, my love."

"I have to. Jor-el's waiting."

"When are you going to finally get some sense and leave him for me?"

Raya turned around and caressed his face and said, "I don't think it would be a good idea. I've been Jor-el's lab assistant for years. We have the same goals the same beliefs. I could never abandon all of the important projects we're working on."

"Is that the real reason?"

Raya shrugged annoyed, "Zod, jealousy doesn't look very good on you. How many times do I have to tell you there is nothing going on between me and Jor-el? He's married to Lara and we're like sisters."

"Come on Raya, I was there at school, I saw the way you always looked at him. And even after all of these years. You have never been able to let him go. If you had then joining me in my lab would be easy. And at grand council meetings you would be on my side, not Jor-el's."

"What did we say about politics? Let's leave them for the Grand Council meetings. I know you and Jor-el are always competing on the applied science Grand council but just leave me out of it. I don't want to be part of your disputes. And I will always speak my mind I will never change beliefs just because you are easy to look at."

Raya said the last part some what teasingly as she let her fingers trail up his chest playfully.

Then Zod said, "Well, maybe your right. Raya but times are getting more difficult. It's gone past just politics now. Times are changing there is talk of a revolt. The grand council is showing its weakness. Krypton could be great. But they won't let it. It's time for action."

Raya stepped back looking really distressed, "What are you talking about?"

"Raya, you are brilliant and beautiful don't waste your talents with someone who doesn't appreciate your talents. Don't waste your time with someone so foolish. The time for change is coming and you could be by my side when it happens. Isn't that what you want?"

"What kind of change?" Raya asked skeptically.

"The change Krypton has been waiting for."

Raya shook her head, "Zod, please tell me your not going to do anything crazy?"

"I'm only doing what needs to be done to preserve Krypton's greatness."

Raya purced her lips backing away from Zod and said, "I'm just worried you might go too far."

He cupped her cheek and said, "There is no need to be worried my dear. As long as you're by my side you'll be fine."

Raya took his hand away from hers and said, "I need some time to think."
