S.T.A.R.
Dr Albert Michaels from STAR laboratories, (The Scientific and Technological Advanced Research Labs) came with a van of equipment and people. STAR laboratories, started by Oliver Queen was his attempt to equalize the many meteor inflicted and alien threats against metropolis and the world. After Clark died, he realized he couldn't rely on Clark and his powers to save the world, and the threats were just as alive as they were before his death.
Chloe was outside with a tearful Lana. She was attempting to get her to calm down.
"Why? why her and not me?"
"I don't know Lana..."
"They don't even like each other..."
"That's what I thought, but when Clark died, Lois toke it pretty hard. I never seen her so lost, all this time, they've had a closer connection than any of us thought."
"Damn her..." Lana said with tears
"Yea, that's what I used to say about you..." Chloe answered with a smile.
Inside the house, Clark was pacing and Oliver was watching him as he sat at the Kent's kitchen table.
A woman walked down the stairs and looked around, seeing Oliver and Clark, she introduced herself…
"I'm Dr. Jenet Klyburn can we sit down over there?"
"How is she?"
"Can we sit down?"
Clark just looked at her and nervously walked over to the kitchen table. Ollie sat next to him and put his arm on Clark's shoulder.
"So Doc, what can you tell us?"
"Well, when we ran a blood test, we discovered that the structure of her blood has changed."
"Changed how?"
"It seems that it is now denser and very similar to your blood…did you give her a transfusion?" she was looking at Clark when she asked.
"No, I was passed out, and she performed a ceremony…a Kryptonian ceremony, she shared her life force with me, that's why I'm alive…she saved my life. Please, can you tell me how she is?"
"First, we don't believe there is anything wrong with her body or her brain, however…"
"What? Why is she still asleep?" Clark asked anxiously.
"The best we can determine, her brain is in some sort of…gestation/hibernation type of development."
"Gestation? As in what…like a fetus?" Ollie asked.
"Not exactly, he brain mainly is experiencing burst of electrical activity, similar to the growth spurt in the brain of an infant. The remarkable thing is that there is evidence of her generating Brain waves similar to radio waves, but at a much much higher frequency"
"What is happening to her?" Ollie asked quickly
"It must be how she's able to communicate with me."
"Wait! She's communicating with you?" the doctor replied quickly, "Don't you think that's something you should have mentioned?"
"I'm sorry, it's only in spurts, she feels trapped, she's….I can sense her roaming through my memories." Every once in a while, she would be there in his mind touching things that made him blush, like the time she opened the bathroom door naked. He would try not to blush, but it was pretty hard. It made him feel hopeful.
"Well that would explain the radio like waves being transmitted from her, but the problem is, it is very tiring for her, the electrical impulses her mind is generating expends a lot of energy, this is why she is still in a coma."
"Can't you make her stop?" Lana walked in with Chloe standing beside her; She was in denial more than ever. She wanted Lois gone and out of Clark's life. She knew the jealousy was wrong, but the thought that he was no longer hers...was killing her.
"Her brain is redeveloping and evolving, if we attempt to interfere with the process, it could damage her brain permanently."
Clark rose up and walked over to the doctor and put himself between the doctor and Lana. "No one is going to do anything without my permission." He said firmly folding his arms. Lana's face dropped a mile, along with her heart.
"Is she going to be okay?" Chloe asked anxiously as she laid a hand on Lana's arm.
Dr. Klyburn answered sympathetically, "She'll be just fine…it's just going to take a while for her to come too."
"How long is a while?" Clark asked quickly as he took a step closer.
"At this point, we have no way of knowing."
"If she's communicating with you, and she has your blood, I would like to do some test on you Mr. Kent." A man walked over and held out his hand, "I'm Dr Albert Micheal's."
"I'll do anything to help get her better." Clark turned and answered quickly. And as he shook the Dr. Micheal's hand, a burst of silver flashed in his eyes for a split second.
No one saw it.
