2005 – Smallville, Kansas – Kent Farm

Clark hung up his cellphone with a light click.

"Two hours till they start dropping," said Clark. "Most of the town is clear now but there might still be a few stragglers. Bart, I'm counting on you and Kyla to find them and Alicia to get them out. Sandman, provide any cover from the meteors you can if you can't get them all clear in time."

"You got it Clark," said Alicia.

"But first, can you get my parents and Lois to safety?"

Alicia smiled and nodded, moving into the kitchen first to evacuate his parents.

"Ollie, Diggle, you guys be careful. I don't want you getting hit by any meteors," said Clark.

"Relax, big guy, we've been over this several times," said Ollie. "You just make sure you drop this transmitter when you find them."

"I will," said Clark, taking a few deep breaths to calm himself.

"I'm going to borrow Clark for a few before Alicia comes back for me," said Lois, grabbing Clark's arm and leading him out of the room.

Before Clark could say anything once they were in private Lois pounced on him, kissing him without restraint. "Promise me you'll come back to me."

"I promise I'll find my way back no matter what it takes," said Clark, looking her in the eyes and easily getting lost in them.

Lois resumed kissing him, dragging him towards the bed behind her.

Clark didn't mind being led so easily as it was very enjoyable.

"Lock the door," Lois breathed heavily into his ear.

Clark blurred to the door and back into her arms almost completely unnoticed. "Done."

"God I love that," said Lois, pulling at the edges of the blue form-fitting t-shirt he was wearing, slowly pushing it up his smooth, muscular body until he lifted his arms so that Lois could remove it completely.

Clark hungrily pulled her still fully clothed body into his, kissing her again, his hand gliding under the back of her shirt.

"Too many clothes," she breathed as her head arched back, while Clark kissed her jaw, neck, and shoulder.

Clark's hands seized the edges of her tank top and slid it up her body, around her perfectly-formed breasts, making sure his thumbs caressed the soft flesh lightly as his hands passed causing her to gasp.

Lois lifted her arms above her head for Clark to free her from the restrictive shirt.

Clark's mouth found the top of her chest, slightly exposed by the black lacy edge of her bra.

Lois's fingernails found easy purchase in Clark's hair during his magnificent ministrations.

He trailed a line of kisses down the valley between her breasts, down her flat, well-toned stomach, dancing around her belly to her trim waistline and the little bit of underwear that crept above her low cut jeans.

Lois' hips bucked a little as Clark teased her with his lips, her hands unfastening the button on her pants signaling Clark to keep going.

Clark looked up meeting her eyes as he slid her pants down her beautiful legs, finally lightly tossing them across the room.

Lois scooted up to the edge of the bed, resting a hand under Clark's chin she guided him back up to kiss her once more, her hands fumbling slightly as she undid his belt and worked his pants off. Every time her fingers touched flesh, it sent a sear of heat through her and him as well, intensifying their kisses.

Finally Clark lifted Lois from the bed, pressing their bodies as close to one another as possible. One of Clark's feet absently kicked to get free of the last leg of his pants only to fall back onto his desktop, giving both him and Lois more purchase.

Lois sat back slightly then snaked her hands behind her back and unclasped her bra, allowing it to slide free.

Clark sat back momentarily enjoying the beauty of her breasts.

Lois blushed a bit then meekly said, "Stop staring."

"You're beautiful," said Clark, looking back into her eyes.

Lois licked her lips slightly before kissing him again, pressing her chest to his as the bulge in his boxers pressed into her moistened panties. She rocked lightly in his lap, loving the feeling coursing through her body and pushing her blood faster through her veins, spreading a wonderful heat throughout her.

Clark groaned into her mouth at feeling her hips begin to move slowly, pressing down on him. He lifted her higher giving his mouth easy access to her pert and perfect breasts, his tongue tentatively tasting one nipple then the other eliciting a shocked gasp from Lois as she pushed her breast into his mouth.

Lois was on fire as Clark's touch seared her inside and out. "Be with me," she whispered in a husky voice.

Obeying her request, Clark floated up off the desk, holding her to him by the small of her back and one of her legs wrapped around him to hold close.

They landed softly on the bed, still entwined.

Lois used her toes to hook the back of Clark's boxers and push them down setting him completely free.

Clark maneuvered lower on her body, kissing every inch as he went. He hooked his fingers through the sides of her panties and began to slide them off, continuing his trail of kisses with the front of her hip, just inside her thigh, the top of her knee, and the top of her foot until she was finally free as well.

Lois crossed her thighs slight as she stared at Clark, seeing desire written all over his face, she knew it was written all over hers too. She raised a single hand, reaching out to him.

Clark took the offered hand and allowed Lois to pull him up to her. She kissed him hungrily as she positioned him over her, her legs slightly spread in waiting.

Lois gasped a little as she guided him inside her, filling her completely.

Both laid connected for a minute, staring into the other's eyes. No words were necessary, everything that needed to be said was passed between them in that moment.

Clark's hand gently caressed her cheek, kissing her again.

Lois happy returned the passion of the kiss while her hands gently guided Clark's hips back slowly and then pulled him back in, her hips raising lightly off the bed to meet him halfway.

Clark groaned, breaking the kiss for a moment only to have his lips recaptured by hers, their bodies both starting to move in rhythm, building speed ever so slowly.

Time vanished for both as they continued moving in sync, groaning and gasping in pleasure until the world around them both faded into nothingness as they finally climaxed together.

Afterglow. That's what it was called, but it was something neither of them had truly experienced until they had each other.

Clark laid contentedly, still connected with Lois while she breathed heavily trying to catch her breath while laying on top of him, kissing him between gasps.

"Now you definitely have to come back to me," Lois mumbled, sounding completely satisfied.

Clark chuckled. "Yeah I do."

"Is it just me or have we gotten really good at this?"

"I'm a fast learner and you are definitely worth learning," said Clark, causing them both to laugh again.

Lois carefully moved off of Clark to position herself on his side with her head resting on his shoulder.

Clark kissed the top of her head. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

"Where did Lois go?" asked Alicia when she returned to the house.

"She and Clark are having sex," said Kara bluntly.

"I have no idea how to react to that," said Alicia.

"I'm going outside," said Lara, clearly uncomfortable with the situation.

Kara followed her outside a moment later.

"We can give them an hour," said Ollie. "They deserve at least that much."

"Give me some of those GPS trackers," said Bart. "I'll start sweeping the town, if I find anyone I'll activate one of them and leave it there. Alicia can come get them."

"Do it," said Ollie.

"What about me?" asked Tim.

"For now just chill, once the rocks start dropping you won't leave Alicia's side," ordered Ollie.

"Cool, I can do that," said Tim, his head bobbing a little as he nodded.

"How are you relaxed?" asked Kyla, confused by the boy's attitude under the circumstances.

"I don't know. I just got faith in Clark and the others. They lead and I follow," explained Tim.

"Real independent, aren't you?" joked Kyla.

"I'm a believer," said Tim with a friendly smile.

"Don't be afraid to think for yourself," advised Diggle.

"I do," said Tim. "But thinking for yourself doesn't preclude having faith in others or believing in them."

"You're a weird guy," said Oliver with a small chuckle.

"Says the man in leather tights," retorted Tim, earning a laugh from everyone.

"They are not tights," Oliver tried to protest.

"It's okay, I know you just want to look good for your life partner. Everyone here is cool with it," said Tim.

"Life partner?" cried Oliver indignantly.

"Diggle right?"

Diggle let out several gagging coughs.

"Not cool," said Oliver. "I'm straight and so is Diggle."

"Oh, sorry, I just thought that with the matching tights and all," explained Tim, causing everyone else to laugh yet again.

2005 – Fort Riley, Kansas – Strategic Command Bunker

"Sir, evacuations are just about completed."

"Good," said Sam Lane gruffly. "How long until first impact?"

"Maybe an hour," reported the young lieutenant.

"We've cleared all of the satellites out of their path?"

"Yes, but there are a lot of very angry scientists," reported the Pentagon attache, a suit, one Agent Carter. "This is an unprecedented event and they aren't being permitted to study it."

"I'm not going to risk billions in satellites so a few scientists can get their jollies."

"But sir, to have two major meteor showers strike the same town less than twenty years apart is statistically impossible. You won't even let them record the meteors from range with high end cameras. What is really going on here sir?"

"What is going on is that you are about to get your clearance revoked," said the General, gnawing on the end of his cigar angrily.

"But sir, I have to report to the Pentagon on this and you're keeping me from doing my job," argued the man.

"My orders come from the President of the United States. The only thing you need to know is there is a massive meteor shower impacting Smallville, Kansas in less than an hour and that we're not going to risk assets to watch the pretty lights. Understood?"

"Sir," said the radar technician urgently. "The meteor field has accelerated from Earth gravity. Ten minutes until first impact."

"Get our men out of there now," ordered Sam.

"Fall back, all units begin immediate emergency egress," called the communications officer.

Sam opened his cellphone and hit speed dial. "Ten minutes to first impact."

"Oh shit," said Oliver closing his phone. "Clark, ten minutes," he yelled loudly.

Clark appeared a moment later fully dressed with Lois next to him.

Lois stepped away from him and took Alicia's hand. "Kick some ass for me."

"Will do," said Clark with a confident smile for her as she vanished with Alicia.

"The General is pulling all of his people back. I've secured all communication in the area so we're the only ones that can talk, all other transmissions are jammed."

"Thanks, Ollie, we owe you big," said Clark.

"You do and believe me, I'll definitely be collecting."

Ollie pressed the bud in his ear, "Showtime."

Clark stepped out of the house with the others. "Everyone, be safe."

Lara and Kara stepped up on either side of Clark and together all three lifted into the air.

"I swear I'm going to find a working jet pack," grumbled Oliver.

Clark led the trio of Kryptonians to the field where the disciples of Zod had landed previously hoping that their trajectory would be the same.

"Watch the skies closely," warned Clark as he spotted the first meteors breaking through their atmosphere.

Lara and Kara both looked skyward, automatically predicting the path of the incoming meteors and moving out of the paths.

Predicting the path of the meteors was easy at first as there were so few but that rapidly changed as more and more meteors entered the atmosphere, catching fire when exposed to the oxygen.

"Kal-El, look," called Kara, pointing at the black ship.

"Let's go," said Clark, weaving between the meteors as he chased down the ship.

Kara and Lara followed as closely as they could while also dodging the falling chunks of their home world.

The ship crash, tearing up a long stretch of field as it skidded to a stop.

"Contact," Clark report through his ear bud, dropping the GPS tracker Oliver gave him.

Clark, Lara, and Kara all landed in front of the ship as calmly as they could. They didn't have to wait long for the ship to open in a big flashy show of light.

Clark didn't flinch or blink as the lights flashed trying to hide the emergence of Nam-Ek and Aethyr.

The Kryptonian standoff did not last long as the two groups studied each other.

"Nam-Ek and Aethyr, surrender and be judged for the crimes you committed in the name of the war criminal Zod," ordered Clark.

"And who are you that you would seek to judge us?" demanded Nam-Ek.

"We are the house of El," he said plainly.

"You are Kal-El?"

"I am," he answered. "Do you surrender?"

"You are strong, you will make a good vessel for General Zod," he said, appearing pleased as he said it.

"Zod, will not escape the Phantom Zone. If you will not surrender peacefully then I will have to use force."

"You are but one Kryptonian," said Aethyr.

"We are three," said Kara, her eyes glowing an angry red.

"I know this one, she is the daughter of the our ally Zor-El," said Nam-Ek.

"The traitor is my father no longer," said Kara hotly.

"Kara, Lara, do your best," said Clark, his eyes not leaving Nam-Ek.

"Lara, wife of Jor-El?" asked Aethyr in surprise.

Clark blurred into action first, kicking Aethyr in the side of the head. The woman hit the ground digging a trench a hundred yards long. Clark turned back just in time to meet Nam-Ek fist to fist causing the ground to tremble and sonic boom to rattle the air.

"You are well trained Kal-El," said Nam-Ek as he tried to push Clark back. "But I was a major in Zod's army, do you really think you stand a chance against me?"

Clark smirked, tightening his grip on Nam-Ek's fist. "Let's find out." Clark shot into the air pulling Nam-Ek off his feet shocking the man. From almost a mile up, Clark swung Nam-Ek around throwing him back towards the ground. Clark flew in behind Nam-Ek gripping him tightly by the waste and accelerated towards the ground, shattering the sound barrier several times in quick succession, aiming straight at the black ship.

Nam-Ek screamed as his body was forced to move in ways he could not comprehend. He had not absorbed much of the yellow sun's energy. Not close to enough to combat Kal-El at this level.

Clark released Nam-Ek about a foot from the black ship letting the man plow painfully into the ship, causing a massive shock wave that leveled the earth for a hundred yards in every direction.

Clark flew into the dust cloud to find the unconscious form of Nam-Ek. Clark grabbed him by the back of his neck, easily lifting him into the air and above his head, then threw Nam-Ek as hard as he could directly at Aethyr.

Kara was getting pissed off with the Kryptonian bitch. Lara and Kara coordinated their attacks on the woman but she blocked and countered their attempts. Kal-El's early cheap shot had successfully dazed the woman, giving them separation from his fight with Nam-Ek.

Kara hit her with her heat vision pushing herself to make it hotter and hotter while Aethyr blocked it with one hand. Kara made the heat hotter still causing sweat to form on her own forehead, something to which she was not accustomed.

Finally Aethyr screamed in pain jerking her hand away, the heat hitting her in the chest sending her flying back several meters. Kara chased after her only to get hit with a blast of heat from Aethyr.

Lara flew in and punched Aethyr in the jaw with all the strength she could muster sending the woman end over end, her heat vision scorching earth in every direction until she slid to a stop aiming the heat at Lara hitting her in the eyes dazing her for a minute as she blinked rapidly trying to see again.

Aethyr turned back to Kara, catching the girl's fist then leg when she tried to kick her. Aethyr threw the girl up into the sky and was about to jump after her when Nam-Ek's body collided with her.

"Kara, help me hold her down. Lara, get the Phantom Zone device," ordered Clark, smashing Aethyr into the ground repeatedly causing a deeper and deeper crater with each impact.

Kara heard Clark's order after her airborne tumble left her in the clouds above. She smirked, diving straight towards the woman putting on as much speed as she could, and like her cousin breaking the sound barrier several times over. She flipped at the last moment driving her feet into Aethyr's lower back with as much force and speed as she could muster enlarging the crater Clark began several times over.

Aethyr twitched a few times after that impact but was still breathing though very much unconscious.

"Bitch," said Kara, floating off the woman and wavering dizzily in the air.

"You okay, Kara?" asked Clark, catching the girl before she fell out of the air.

"I think so," said Kara. "I certainly feel better after that."

"I guess," said Clark, surveying the surrounding area. Clark picked up the twitching Aethyr and then dug out Nam-Ek and picked him up in the other hand.

Lara took the Phantom Zone device and activated it tossing it into the air above them.

Clark watched the portal form then lightly tossed both Nam-Ek and Aethyr into it.

Clark breathed a sigh of relief. "That went better than I thought it would."

Clark pressed his ear bud, "All clear."

"Kick ass," came the reply over it. "Now can you come dig us out, we got caught in one of the shockwaves from your little tussle."

"Kara, can you go help them while Lara and I deal with Brainiac?"

"Sure, Kal-El, be safe, it's dangerous," said Kara, jumping into the air and flying toward Oliver and Diggle.

Clark and Lara flew slowly toward where the black ship was left. "Dropping Nam-Ek on it must have buried it," he said, it was part hope and part worry. He scanned the ground but found no trace of it.

"I do not see it," said Lara.

"We'll start searching the crater, both surface and underground. We need to find it," said Clark, flying into the air and circling, widening his pattern as he flew.

"Meteor fall has finished, I'm not sure what's causing the tremors," said the radar operator.

"It could be secondary detonations of the meteors or underground gas lines. A large enough meteor could have hit deep enough disturb a fault line," advised Carter. He was a scientist despite being a bureaucrat or anything else he might also have been.

Sam Lane frowned. He'd gotten the call from Lois telling him she was safe as were the Kents and a lot of other people that Kent's team had manage to find and evacuate. He'd managed to setup a special bunker for Kent's people to be evacuated to, he was still wary of this teleporter he had working with him but she had saved a lot of lives that day including his daughters, that alone bought her a lot of trust.

"Sir, all seismic activity has ceased."

"Good," said Sam, he was just waiting for the all clear call before he sent his men in.

"Sir, shouldn't we send out men in?"

"Not yet, we can wait a few minutes to make sure. I'm not going to send my men in unnecessarily. The majority of the town was safely evacuated well before the first meteor hit. We'll wait at least thirty minutes then I want a full recon of the area and every last meteor strike identified and mapped out."

"Do you think the meteor rock will be the same composition as the previous shower?"

"I don't know and I don't care. I'm not taking any chances. If it is the same crap then Queen Consolidated will handle the cleanup but I'll be damned if I don't do everything in my power to keep it contained."

Sam's phone vibrated a few minutes later. "Lane. Good. Understood. I'll be sending in troops just inside thirty minutes. Thank you."

"General Lane, who was that?" asked Carter.

"Someone you don't need to concern yourself with," said Sam, now looking at Carter suspiciously. "Who did you say ordered you here again?"

"Amanda Waller," he answered.

Sam grumbled, he knew that particular spook a little too well from his past dealings with her and her infamous witch hunts. Which also meant the woman knew more about this meteor shower than she was telling and that created a whole new dimension to this particular secret he was now going to protect at all costs.

2005 – Smallville, Kansas

"It's not here, Brainiac must have activated during the fight," said Lara, she was clearly worried about Clark's reaction.

"He'll turn up," said Clark. "I just worry about how much trouble he'll cause until then. I won't allow Zod to take this planet for himself."

"We'll fight him together, as a family, Kal-El," said Lara softly, trying to comfort her son.

Clark took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "You're right, I've beat him before. I can do it again."

"We should try to clean up these craters," suggest Lara. "The humans will be suspicious of them if we do not try to fill them in."

"You're right, let's get to work," said Clark with a nod to his mother.

Kara arrived moments later with both Oliver and Diggle.

"Damn, when you throw down, you really throw down," commented Oliver.

"I'm just glad no one got caught in the crossfire of all this," said Clark, surveying his surrounding. He looked back at Ollie, Diggle and Kara. "Take them back to the farm with everyone else. Lara and I will clean all of this up and meet you back there soon. Tell Alicia she can start returning people to their homes."

"Okay, Kal-El, as soon as I do that though I'll come back and help you and Aunt Lara." She gave Clark and Lara both a quick hug before vanishing again with Oliver and Diggle in tow.

Heroes, that's what they had all become that day. They had saved lives. Protected the innocent.

"I'm so proud of all of you," said Martha, finally sitting down at the extended dining table to enjoy their celebratory dinner. "All of you," she repeated.

"Everyone did awesome," added Bart. "Kyla kicked ass on those looters. And she thought she'd be useless."

Kyla blushed embarrassed by the speed demon's praise.

"What about me?" asked Alicia, fishing for praise.

"I'm personally going to call her 'Scotty' from now on," said Oliver with a grin and a laugh.

Alicia frowned then smiled. "From now on, you can all call me 'The Transporter'."

"I'm not sure how Jason Statham would feel about that but sure, why not?" joked Oliver earning a laugh from everyone.

"Well I like it, muy caliente," flirted Bart in his normal manner.

"You can all argue over codenames later, let's eat," said Lois.

"Everyone dig in," said Martha, happy to have her house so full of friends and family.
