Chapter Ten "Plans and Preparations."
Kal had his clothes stripped completely off and could not believe his luck. She was amazing, sitting there in the light, in all of her glory and the glory of Diana could be quite glorious. He could hardly believe the vision of beauty that waited for him and he knew that there was one thing for him to do. He stepped forward and stepped into the cooling water, before he put himself in the water alongside her.
"So what…."
"Wash my back, it isn't that hard," Diana responded with an impish grin that flickered through the moonlight before she turned towards him. "Unless you're scared of some intimate contact, without any barriers."
Kal grabbed the rag in the water and slowly rubbed her back, with circular motions which caused her to close her eyes in pleasure. Diana felt his strong hand move against her and she pushed back against him, to cause the necessary amount of friction between the two of them. She was getting far more than she ever thought that she would, and she made sure to sit on his lap, grinding her ass against his crotch as he made circular motions to lather her up.
Diana bit down on her lip as Kal continued to work her over and a slight moan escaped from her lips but she played it cool.
"What?"
"Continue," Diana encouraged him as the washrag worked around her back and Diana leaned back, scooting back against him, grinding herself into him ever so slightly. She shifted towards him, allowing him further access to her and felt his hand brush against her, as the cool water splashed against him.
Kal could not believe it as he allowed his hands to roam the body of this Amazon beauty, getting more daring by each passing moment. He used his hands to skim down below her waist as she rubbed against him. Was she trying to get him off? It sure felt like it as she grinded herself onto him.
"Keep going Kal," Diana breathed as his strong hands worked over her. Another moan escaped her lips as she grinded against him. There were no issues that she had about this, she was proud of her body and she could see that he should have nothing to be ashamed of either. She closed her eyes and allowed the pleasure to rush through her, so much pleasure that filled her body.
Kal concluded washing her back and she arched up, to present her rear towards him.
"My entire backside Kal, go ahead, touch it, it won't hurt you."
Kal touched it and placed his hands all over her shapely posterior, it was tanned and toned, as he imagined doing all sorts of wicked things to it, to her. He felt himself twitch a slight bit underneath her body as he used his hands to grab her and feel her all over. His mind went haywire as he touched her and a smile crossed his face as he continued to work over her, washing her with delight and a smile crossing his face.
"How's that?" Kal asked Diana and she smiled at him.
"Divine, Kal, simply divine."
Diana allowed him to continue to wash her before she spun around and straddled him, in a bold move.
"Diana," Kal responded as she cupped him with a smile. She saw him grow and she analyzed him.
"I want you," Diana breathed heavily in his ear as she straddled him and rubbed herself down across his swollen head to cause him to rise even more.
Kal spun her over and pushed her down onto the ground, before he began to kiss her intensely. She returned the kiss, the residual Red Kryptonite kicking back in. The effects increased for the both of them as the two of them worked themselves into a fevered frenzy with the intense kiss.
Diana wrapped her strong legs around Kal's waist and held him into place. He was not going anywhere, but why would he want to?
Smut/Lemon Begins
-PROFILE-
Lemon Scene Ends.
Kal rested on the ground with Diana draped over one side of him and Kara draped over the other. The two girls on either side of him, well there was something about that situation that felt right. These two beautiful girls on either side of him, it was something that he could get used to. He closed his eyes and rested for a while as he held their two sexy bodies against him.
It was amazing how his life changed in a matter of months, at first he struggled to get with any girls, then he got two of them in as many months and he longed for the even more beauties on his arms. That was the great thing about beautiful women, they were always room for more although Kara and Diana would be a huge mountain to top.
Then again, the beauty of women came in many shapes and sizes and variety was the spice of life, at least that's what Kal thought. He rested with both of them, Kara and Diana rested in his arms, both of them waking up after the intense night that they had. The three of them had a lot of fun pushing each other to the brink of their limits and they ended the night achieving more pleasure than ever before.
"So how are two of my favorite girls this morning?" Kal asked as he draped an arm around Kara's waist and pulled Diana onto his shoulder before she offered a smile towards him and turned towards him, an appraising expression twinkling in her eyes.
"Just two of your favorite?" Diana asked with an amused expression in her eyes before Kara picked back right back up where Diana left off, with equal amusement in her voice.
"We'll see how charming Hippolyta is when she finds out that you've been boning her daughter," Kara fired back with a look of pure mischief dancing through her eyes before she leaned back. "I mean look at her, look how much you had Diana screaming last night."
"Hera only knows that most of the women on this island need to get laid," Diana allowed with a smile, as she twirled the lasso around her finger. She did not get a chance to use it last night but there was always a next time.
Diana's face contorted into a smile as she ran her fingers down Kal's chest, slowly teasing him with the thoughts of more that was to come. She closed her eyes as Kara snuggled into Kals chest. The three of them were sitting next to each other and none of them were willing to move from their comfortable spot. They could lose themselves in each other, like they had for almost eight hours straight last night. It was nearly lunchtime if they had to hazard a guess.
"I don't think that our little tryst will have gone unnoticed," Diana remarked as Kal looked at her with a raised eyebrow before the Amazon princess decided to elaborate. "Well, let's look at this, the racket the three of us made last night, it could have woken the dead."
Kal was not going to argue with that, last night was a night that he was going to remember, there was no question about it. Diana grabbed his arm tightly and squeezed his bicep as a smile crossed her face. She rested with a slightly goofy grin on her face before she commented on the situation at hand.
"And the news of our little escapades, well I don't think it escaped your attention but it will get back to my mother eventually," Diana remarked in a voice that sounded all too casual for Kal and even Kara shifted a little bit.
"Your mother?" Kal asked, although he felt bold for standing up to the Queen of the Amazons, that was before he did the horizontal mambo with her daughter. The state of what happened last night, well needless to say this reminder made things slightly more interesting.
Diana's face crossed in a bit of smugness. "Yes my mother, the woman that you so boldly stood up to previously. The woman who kind of runs this island and I'm sure what happened won't escape her attention."
Kal understood that much but there was something in his thoughts that allowed logical to go to the forefront. There was a part of him that wondered if Diana was trying to wind him up so he would do something rather glaringly reckless. Granted, when it all came down to everything, Kal needed little to no assistance on that front. He could be pretty reckless if given enough prodding.
That being said, standing up to the queen of an island of powerful warrior woman was one thing. Standing up to the queen of an island of powerful warrior women after one slept with said woman's daughter, well that required something more brazen than Kal thought he was capable of.
Of course times changed and Kal really thought that there was nothing that he could not accomplish any more. He was ready to face the world.
"I've met your mother, she's a really charming lady," Kal responded but Kara's face crossed with a grin.
"We'll see how charming Hippolyta is when she finds out that you've been boning her daughter," Kara fired back with a look of pure mischief dancing through her eyes before she leaned back. "I mean look at her, look how much you've had Diana screaming last night."
"Yes, I've heard her, I was there, I don't think I'd forget that," Kal offered Kara in a shameless tone of voice.
"I thought not."
Kal did feel that if he was going to meet the mother of one of his mates, the first thing he should do was find his clothes.
"You never know, if you did meet her naked, she might want a piece of the action for herself."
"KARA!" Diana responded in an exasperated voice but the blonde smirked.
"Well she is a MILF," Kara responded as she shrugged her shoulders but Kal looked at her, wondering where on Earth Kara picked up that term.
Diana looked at her, eyebrow raised. "What is a MILF?"
"Mother I'd like to f…."
Kara did not finish this statement before Kal clapped his hand onto her mouth and her voice became muffled. The blonde preferred that Kal would muffle her with a different part of his body other than his hand. She did not get her fill of her cousin's creamy filling after last night, that much was for sure. Mischief still flickered through her eyes even though her mouth was shut.
"Kara, I think the two of us should get ready, we've slept in too late," Kal said to the blonde and Kara's lips curled into a devious little smile before she kept her eyes on Kal.
"Oh, should we now?" Kara asked Kal with a mischievous grin crossing her face as Diana wondered about the interplay between the two cousins.
Diana crossed her arms and got to her feet, finding a fresh change of clothes. She feared they had been lost in the night before but they were set up for her on set of rocks, completely clean and dry. Without another word, Diana got dressed, slipping on the white t-shirt and jeans that she had, along with the sandals. She had a headband on and the bracelets already but those were the only things that she wore during last night's escapades.
"So, it's time for us to face the queen," Kal responded but Kara corrected him.
"No, it's time for you to face the queen," Kara ammended but Kal decided to fire back with something.
"Remind me again what your mouth was doing to Diana last night?" Kal asked her with a raised eyebrow and the blonde turned her head around with a slight grin flickering around her face.
"Oh there's no need to remind her, I'm sure she already remembers," Kara responded as she leaned forward, getting dressed at super speed. "I'm sure she remembers everything that happens, don't you, Princess?"
"I recall it with great clarity," Diana responded as she eyed Kal deviously.
"And I'm sure you remember it, my dear cousin," Kara added as she watched Diana with a slight hint of amusement. "And encase you couldn't remember it, here's a reminder, you couldn't go without, could you?"
Kara wrapped her arms tightly around Diana and kissed her full on the lips for Kal's benefit.
"Wonderful, you're going to make me visit Hippolyta with an erection," Kal said dryly and Kara and Diana watched him with hungry eyes, never breaking the lip-lock they were in. That did not make his situation any easier in fact it made it far harder.
Pardon the obvious pun.
Kal prepared to face the music but he knew that if he made her respect him once, he could do it again. The circumstance be damned and they were surely different but Kal was not about to be denied .
"So, Kal-El, I've heard rumors regarding of what you've been up to with my daughter," Hippolyta remarked in a brisk tone of voice as she folded her arms and kept her burning eyes firmly on the young man who she allowed on her island. Naturally because in some small way he had earned her respect but she was curious to see how much he would fight for the right to be with her daughter.
Kal stood facing the queen his eyes locked onto hers and Diana stood by his side, unmoving. She knew when her mother was like this it was best to take a step back and soak things in. She watched the reaction that Hippolyta had as she focused on Kal.
"So what do you have to say to yourself?" Hippolya asked in a brisk tone as she kept her eyes locked onto Kal.
Kal stared back without any fear, he was not about to back up, even though it was in his best interest, not to mention his best health to do so. He crossed his arms and looked back at the Queen of the Amazons.
"Your daughter has captivated me in many ways," Kal responded to the queen in a swift and bold voice. "And she is a remarkable woman, one that I have gotten to know really well over the past few days."
"Yes, that is one thing that I've been able to determine," Hippolyta said as she surveyed him through narrowed eyes. "You have gotten to know my daughter very well, perhaps far better than you should."
Kal watched Hippolyta with an appraising expression in his eyes; to be honest he did not know what he was up against. The Queen of the Amazons did not seem to be too angry with him, at least traditionally so. Then again, the guards next to her appeared to be willing to rip into him, all she had to snap her fingers and Kal would be done for.
"Perhaps, perhaps not, but I'm willing to fight for Diana every step of the way," Kal offered in an extremely brazen tone as he looked Hippolyta straight in the eye without fear. "And I'm willing to fight you toe to toe if that's what I need to do."
Trepidation filled Diana at that moment; she thought that Kal might be a bit too bold with those words. Fighting a group of Amazon guards and catching them off guard, that was one thing. Their friendly sparring session was another thing but her mother, oh boy that was another thing together. She crossed her arms and watched Kal before she spun around and turned towards Kara.
Kara had an expression that resembled thinly veiled pride on her face as she watched her cousin. Naturally she would encourage him to go for it if he could. That was the type of person the blonde was, she always stood bold and fierce. The battle of wills between Kal and Hippolyta, well that intensified and neither were willing to concede.
"You are willing to fight me for my daughter's hand?" Hippolya asked as she corked her eyebrow at the bold statement this young man made. Several of the honor guard saw exactly what they did. They described it quite vividly to Hippolyta and the Queen of the Amazons found herself visited by a maelstrom of emotions. She got to her feet and walked down the steps.
Kal wondered if he took things a step or two too far but he regarded the queen with calmness, trying not to let any anxiety get the better of him. He decided to stand boldly and look her in the eye, without backing down. Show no fear and people would respect a person for that or so Kal thought.
"Yes, I'd be willing to fight you for Diana's hand," Kal responded with a brisk tone of voice, he did not back down.
Hippolyta raised an eyebrow as she surveyed him before as she closed the distance between them. Diana felt her dread continue to escalate.
"Kal, don't worry you can take her," Kara breathed but she was not too certain about that. She just wanted to see what would happen if Kal tried. It was the science geek in her and she was a sucker for an experiment. The RedK kicking in around an Amazon Queen with adrenaline flowing might prove to be interesting.
Kal smiled; that was something that he needed to hear, although he wondered if he might be making a huge mistake. Hippolyta eyed him with a wide smile across her face as she watched him.
Are you going to back your words up with actions, Kal-El?"
"Yeah, I am," Kal told in a bold tone of voice and Diana placed her head in her hands, wondering if her lover was about to bite off more than he could chew.
Hippolyta dropped down into a battle stance facing Kal, as her fellow Amazons backed off.
"My daughter is well trained, I've taught her everything that she knows," Hippolyta remarked in a crisp voice before she took a step forward. "But not everything that I know."
The woman was all for testing her abilities against someone who had gone against her daughter in battle and she could not wait to test herself against him. Things were about to get intense between the two of them. Hippolyta and Kal circled each other, eying the other as they waited for an opening to make the first move, before Kal went for a punch but Hippolyta avoided the attack. Another attack was dodged and she grabbed him from behind and threw him.
Hippolyta was rather quick and she nailed Kal with a series of palm strikes, knocking him around. Kal closed his eyes, feeling rather beaten and battered before he tried to stagger to his feet and fight back.
"I assumed that you were willing to fight," Hippolyta commented as Kal tried to take her feet out from underneath her but she evaded it with skill and grace.
She assumed that he was willing to fight for her daughter's honor but Hippolyta grabbed Kal around the head before forcing him down. A running knee smashed him in the head and Hippolyta stood over him, placing the tip of a spear that she grabbed from one of her guards against his chest.
"How do you like that?" Hippolyta asked but Kal grabbed her feet and pushed her back down.
Hippolyta staggered and Kal moved towards her, going for a punch but she blocked it. Another punch, she blocked it and a third punch was blocked as well. She grabbed him around the head and pushed him down hard onto the ground. Kal was able to counter this, and push her back.
He used his strength to slam her down onto the ground.
"You better not be holding back, Kal," Hippolyta warned him, looking at him through hungry eyes and she kicked him back, before she picked up the discarded spear and thrust it towards him.
Kal avoided the spear attack and pulled it from her hands, before he grabbed Hippolyta around the waist then slammed her to the ground with immense strength.
Hippolyta saw that he had her pinned and she shivered underneath his extreme grip. He held her down and she tried to get out of his hold. She struggled and writhed underneath his grip as she saw a glowing red light in his eye and then a light headed feeling flush through her.
"Kal, Kal," Hippolyta breathed as she wondered what was happening to her and she summoned the adrenaline burst she needed.
She reversed the position and grabbed Kal around the waist. She speared him into the ground with an immense impact before she straddled him.
Kal tried to push out but Hippolyta pinned him down to the ground. She leaned down onto him, with a lustful smile on her face and pressed her lips onto his with a long and searing kiss. She violated his mouth with her tongue as the other Amazons watched in shock.
"Mother!" Diana yelled in an exasperated tone of voice but she felt a warmth rise from between her thighs. Kara watched her and she felt the RedK effect kick in as well and the other Amazons watched them, feeling stirrings that they never thought they would have towards a man.
"Time for me to claim my prize, Kal," Hippolyta breathed as she fished her hand down his pants and clutched him, tightening around his throbbing manhood. "Nice, very nice."
Lemon Scene Begins.
-PROFILE-
Lemon Scene Ends.
After the fun was over, Diana and Hippolyta rested over Kal, with Kara having her head on his lap. The other Amazons were down and out for the count, having been worked to exhaustion.
"You have my approval," Hippolyta stated after a moment as she ran her hands down his muscles and smiling. "Providing you visit often should you leave the island."
"I think that could be arranged," Kal stated as he turned around and saw the dozens of dozens of women who had passed out from the pleasure.
A smug smile crossed his face at the accomplishment.
"Providing they let you leave," Diana responded as she rested her head on his shoulder and Kal tightened his arm around her.
"And this is a bad thing, how?" Kal asked and Kara smiled, as she rested herself. She would have her turn with Kal between her legs but now it was time to give him a moment to recharge. They could have a lot of fun later.
Dreams were something that was amazing in many ways and they tended to be the windows for the soul, perhaps an aspect of life that would explain the unexplainable. It was something that many have debated time and time again, about the nature of dreams and trying to figure out what they were like. They offered so many hints of what was to come or maybe something in another life.
Chloe thought about the dreams that she had over the past few days, almost going on a week now. She wondered about them, in fact her head was ringing with the sensations of them. Every single night she woke up after seeing symbols that she never saw in her life, ever. It was unlike anything that she ever saw before.
Given that the Internet was a vast and amazing resource, she tried to look up the symbols but she found nothing. The blonde cupped her hand on her chin and walked up to the caves.
She stood rigid.
'Don't worry, Sullivan, nothing to worry about it,' Chloe thought to herself as she ran her hands and threw her head back.
"Make sure you keep an eye for anyone returning to this cave, I want to know who is going in and out."
The voice of Lionel Luthor broke Chloe out of her thoughts and she crept around, eyes darting around frantically to make sure that no one saw her. She stopped as she realized this sudden movement might cause her nervousness.
'This might make things difficult,' Chloe thought to herself before she placed her hand on her chin and threw her head back with a sigh. 'Actually, that might make things very difficult come to think about it.'
Chloe spun her head around before the young woman put her hands on her hips and the pair of goons moved around. She tapped her foot on the ground nervously. Things were not going to improve in the slightest, that much Chloe knew and it would be harder to get into the cave.
"Legally, there's nothing that you can do to stop him."
Chloe did not even bother to look over her shoulder to see who was standing behind her but she thought for a brief moment that it was Kara having returned. Her voice sounded pretty similar at the very least.
She spun around and saw the woman standing there, dressed in a blue blouse that did very little to hide the fact that she was very well endowed on top. She wore a pair of glasses and appeared to have red hair. The skirt she wore extended down towards a pair of muscular but still extremely shapely legs.
Little did Chloe know that said red hair was a wig that covered the short blonde hair that she had underneath and her green eyes were contacts to hide her baby blue eyes that were exactly the same as Kara's.
"I'm sorry…thought you were someone else for a moment," Chloe remarked in an apologetic tone as she eyed the young woman.
"O-kay," the woman stated before she extended a hand.
"Lots of people interested in the caves, I don't know why," Chloe offered, hoping to play innocent, in case this woman wasn't in on the secret.
"I think you know why, Miss Sullivan," the woman commented as she barely suppressed a grin. "I was talking to Patricia Swann, she was here the other day with you."
"So…you're Doctor Swann's assistant?" Chloe asked as she watched the woman before her.
"Assistant is a rather menial term to describe my job," the woman informed her with a chuckle, she did practically run STARR labs to be honest, along with several other things. She was rather busy as well. The blonde disguised as a redhead turned to Chloe to give a more formal introduction. "Karen Starr at your service."
Well Karen Starr was just an alias, she was Kara Zor-El from an alternate dimension, although older than the Kara from this universe. It was a long story that she was not about to get into.
. "There's another one here, just like Kal-El, isn't there?" Karen asked, confirming the theory that she had that her younger counterpart popped up out of the woodwork.
Chloe placed her hands on her hips, nervously chewing on her bottom lip. To be honest she did not want to think about too much of what was happening, although she spun her head around for a moment and eyed Karen with a swift nod.
"Yes, she is but you know that anyway, don't you?" Chloe asked Karen in a quiet tone of voice.
Karen did not say much of anything for a second; it was going to be a problem to get past the Luthorcorp goons that were moving around the cave. Even with super powers, it was a challenge, granted it was a challenge that she was up for but still.
"I know enough to know enough."
Chloe frowned as she watched Karen. "Okay, that was very vague."
"It was vague on purpose," Karen fired back with a long and poignant shrug as she threw her head back with a sigh. "I don't want anyone to overhear what I know, I think certain parties know too much already."
Karen grabbed Chloe and led her away. It would be easy to sprint her to a safe location with super powers but that was one particular secret that Karen was unwilling to let out of the bag just yet. She led Chloe off to the side, patiently and calmly. The blonde stood by Karen's side and remained rigid.
"It's no longer safe to be here," Karen responded as she opened the door to her car.
While she didn't need one due to her flights, it was most important to keep up appearances. Since Karen was paid so well, she could get one of the newer models.
"Nice wheels," Chloe responded in an appraising voice.
"Thanks," Karen stated as she waited for Chloe to buckle up before she did the same. She put the car in reverse before backing up and driving off.
It took her two years of her life and three crashed cars to learn how to drive but Karen was pretty sure she finally got the hang of it. Flying was her preferred way to travel for obvious reasons but she did not necessarily mind driving. She just didn't want to make a habit of doing it far too often either.
"So, you know….Clark, I guess," Chloe responded as Karen drove them away.
Karen shook her head, technically speaking she never met the Kal-El Chloe spoke of, but she had been here for almost eighteen months in this dimension. She had to escape that world, Luthor corrupted her cousin to the point where he was almost unrecognizable.
"I know of him," Karen remarked in an evasive tone of voice. "I know that he is capable for some great things but he has a long time to go before achieving them."
Chloe raised an eyebrow; she had a feeling that Karen was keeping pieces of the truth. She closed her eyes trying to pinpoint exactly what pieces they were. Karen showing up out of the woodwork and pulling her away before she potentially got found out by Lionel, it seemed rather too easy. Then again, if Lionel started asking questions, her life would be far more inconvenient. Call her crazy but Chloe decided to trust her gut and trust Karen.
Yet there was something that there was a problem although she could not pinpoint what. Not to mention the dreams and Chloe began to think that she was losing her mind. Plus the fact that Clark and Kara had not returned, it was almost like they disappeared off of the face of the planet.
"Do you know where Kal-El left to?" Karen asked.
Chloe raised an eyebrow. "I thought you might."
"Chloe, now isn't a time to play games," Karen responded with a smile on her face, trying to coax Chloe to say anything.
Chloe looked defensive and threw her hands up into the air.
"What makes you think I'm playing games?"
Karen offered her a slight smile. "It sounds like you're covering for something, don't worry you can trust me."
"Can I?" Chloe asked as she watched Karen. "I don't know….you just turned up. How do I know you aren't trying to find out what I know about Clark? How do I know you're not working for the government or something?"
"Paranoid much, are we?" Karen asked as she tried to get Chloe to cough up the information but there was nothing to it.
"Not paranoid, just preserving," Chloe answered before she threw her head back and remained silent.
"One might say that they are one and the same."
Karen decided not to press any further than that.
"You want to go the caves, I think that I can get in you in there after nightfall," Karen stated as she watched Chloe. There was a moment where Chloe sat in wait. "The choice is yours, but do you trust me? That's the thing I want to ask you. Do you trust me?"
That was the question that was asked of her and that was something that Chloe was not wanting to answer. The blonde placed her hands on her face and threw her head back.
"What do I have to lose?' Chloe asked before she hoped that her trust was not being misplaced.
"A lot, but try not to worry about it," Karen answered before she smiled towards the smaller blonde, in an attempt to lighten the mood.
Chloe would feel a lot better if she knew that she could trust this woman one hundred percent of the way. There was something about her that seemed rather superficial and rang rather false although she could not figure out what that was. There was something about her that Chloe could not pinpoint what she felt was wrong.
It just was wrong and that was something that annoyed the blonde to no end.
Karen as it turned out was true to her word. Chloe was back in the cave and she placed her hands on her hips as she walked forward. Nervous as she did so but at the same time she was determined.
"LARA!"
"Hello Chloe, what can I do for you?" Lara asked for her in a calm voice.
"I've….I've told you about the dreams but they are getting more intense," Chloe responded as she unfolded the piece of paper that she scrawled down the symbols before she forgot them. She turned it around. "You can….you can see it, can you?"
"Yes, I have optical capabilities," Lara confirmed to Chloe and Chloe placed her hands on her hips, that was good, actually that was more than good, that was amazing.
"Okay, I'm seeing these symbols in my dreams and I'm starting to be freaked out a tiny bit," Chloe offered as her eyes widened nervously.
"Take a calming breathe, Chloe, don't be worried, I'm sure that there is some kind of logical explanation," Lara offered and Chloe held up the symbol. The AI scanned them for a translation. "They translate into the Kryptonian word for eternity."
Lara decided to elaborate a bit more because she did sense Chloe's confusion, there was much about this that she did not really understand all that much herself.
"The symbols you are seeing is an old form of Kryptonian that has been lost for centuries," Lara explained to Chloe and Chloe turned towards her. "It is quite curious that these symbols pop up in your dreams, after all that has happened."
"Yeah, one could say that," Chloe added as she tried to focus on it but a part of her was kind of disturbed with everything that's happened. "How is it happening though? How am I seeing symbols when I'm asleep that I've never seen in my life when I'm awake?"
Lara remained rather silent as there was a moment where she contemplated things in her mind. Chloe felt rather nervous, this silence was something that drove her absolutely nuts. Her foot tapped on the ground, once, twice, and three times. She threw her head back and the hands on her head. Chloe turned her head before there was a long pause.
She whistled the tension could be cut with a knife.
"Did you come into contact with anything that might have caused this?" Lara asked as Chloe placed her hands on her head and threw her head back deep in thought.
"Not as such, no," Chloe offered as she thought that there was something that she should remember but she was not coming to it. It was driving her absolutely nuts, to the point of insanity. The woman crossed her arms and waited. "I wish I could be more helpful but it's really causing me to lose my mind."
"Don't worry Chloe, it happens to the best of us," Lara stated before the AI offered a sigh. "Kara and Kal have been gone for ten days. I'm starting to fear that something happened but I'm unable to reach them."
Chloe raised an eyebrow before the blonde wondered what she had in mind.
"I need your help."
That was the last thing that Chloe expected to hear and a smile crossed her face before she folded her arms together.
"What do you need me to do?"
Lara was all too quick to elaborate.
"I need….I need you to find him," Lara responded, she hated to have to rely on Chloe for something like this and put the girl in danger.
Chloe decided to point out what she perceived to be a fundamental logic flaw in Lara's words.
"Um, how am I supposed to do this?" Chloe asked as she watched Lara or where she thought was Lara. "I mean, I'm happy to save Clark, I'll do it, no problem, and all that but there's something that's holding me back."
She popped her mouth.
"No powers," Chloe stated as she stood away. "So that kind of puts me at a disadvantage."
The slot in the cave opened and a blue crystal slid out.
"This must be done with care, Chloe, by accepting these powers you need to realize that there is no turning back," Lara warned her as she paused for a second before she asked the question that would live in infamy. "So I need to ask you one thing, and you need to be completely honest with me."
Chloe stood firm, she knew that she had to be completely honest.
"Do you love Kal?"
Chloe blinked, that was a bit blunt but she had to respond.
"With all my heart, I always have," Chloe responded as she threw her head back with a sigh. "Although he's kind of with Kara…."
"Humans," Lara commented in an exasperated tone of voice. "Kryptonian society mandates that powerful young men should be with multiple women. Their DNA, their lines, should be spread long and wide, and with Kal being the last male of his kind, this is even truer."
"Okay, okay, you've got that but….Clark seems like the choir boy type, it's a wonder that he's boffing his cousin," Chloe stated but then she realized something. "This summer brought out an entirely new side of Clark."
"A brand new side, he took the first step in embracing his heritage, he took his first step to being everything that he could be," Lara stated in a swift tone of voice. "He took the first step to becoming what he could be."
The blue crystal flickered out from her.
"To give humans Kryptonian powers, it would be lethal to them," Lara explained to Chloe. "Even someone as young and healthy as you, your organs will take a beating and they will be much weaker. Your bones, your tendons, everything will become strained. You will be miserable within a few years, providing you live that long."
"Yikes," Chloe responded as she paused before opening her mouth to state something.
Lara beat her to the punch as only she could.
"Fortunately, there are other options," Lara remarked in a crisp tone of voice. "I can make you purely Kryptonian and give you the gifts that come along with that."
"You can do that?" Chloe asked in an excited voice.
"It's not something that I do lightly, but you have proven yourself to be worthy of my son, I can see it in your eyes and I can sense it in your heart," Lara added as the crystal glowed. "The choice is yours but do know that there is no turning back."
"No turning back," Chloe whispered to herself, her eyes widened.
The crystal beckoned her.
She touched her hands to the crystal.
Chloe felt the entire world around her change. Her life would never be the same ever again but it was a sacrifice that she was willing to make.
Lara sensed the change going around her and she understood everything clearly now, including Chloe's true nature.
Her son would be protected in ways that he would not know.
Chloe felt herself change and felt herself empowered.
She shot out of the cave at super speed. It was so fast, one minute she stood in the cave with Lara and the next minute she was at the edge of the field just outside of Smallville. The blonde looked up with wide eyed excitement and there was only one thought that echoed through her mind constantly.
'This is awesomesauce!'
Chloe placed a hand to her head and it was almost like she could sense Clark. It was hard to explain but she had some kind of connection, a link that guided her. It was something that was far deeper than friendship.
The blonde kicked up and flew, she was actually flying, and she could not believe it. All she had to do was let her instincts lead her on. The blonde closed her eyes before she snapped them back open.
She flew through a barrier towards the island and dropped down to the ground. The blonde spun around and looked at the scene around her. It was an island with picturesque beauty and she stepped forward.
Chloe stopped and saw a statue that was carved out of granite on the island. The blonde's eyes widened as she saw it and the fact that there were several women worshipping at the altar on the island.
'What?' Chloe thought as she blinked for a second and she saw the statue, before she turned her head around. She cupped her hand to her chin and swayed from one side to the other and watched it.
She saw it.
It was a statue of Clark that these women were worshipping it.
Now Chloe's expression went from confusion to "what the hell was going on." The blonde had to find him, because she sensed that he was on the island.
Little did Chloe know that she was not the only person who was observing the situation on the island. There was a pair of malicious eyes that were watching, plotting revenge on the Amazons and the young man that they anointed as their god.
