(Authors Side note thanks for the feedback its useful) *note about Whitney in my mind he
would pretty much act the way he did in the last chapter, after all Clark saved his life,
and has saved Lana a couple of times up till now, Whitney is still a victim of his own nature
though, all the attention of being the star football player has gone to his head and well
saying he's a little self centred is the understatement of the century*
Flames of Destiny - Part Three
Nobody saw Clark re-enter the school building, he moved faster
than the human eye could see, he had noticed that about his
powers, if he was upset or angry his powers went hyper,
much the same thing had happened when Tina had mockingly
told him with hate in her voice that Lana was dead, he'd
lost control just for a second but it was enough to send
her flying through the air into the nearest tree, had her
mutated bone structure not protected her, she'd
most likely have been killed, Clark's father had
been right, he could not let his emotions get the better
of him if he allowed that to happen he became a danger
to himself and those around him, he pushed the thoughts
from his mind as he made his way down the flights of stairs
all the while wondering if Lana was alive or dead…
*Cough*
'Huh?!?' thought Clark as he heard the sound again
*Cough* using his new found x ray vision he effortlessly
saw through the thick smoke bellowing down the hallway
'Nothing' he thought to himself then he saw her, "Lana!!!"
he cried out into the darkness of the smoke flowing around
him, in a burst of superspeed he was by her side throwing
the fallen obstructions out of his path till he could reach
her small frame, he bent down on the locker room floor
and checked her pulse, her eyes fluttered open at his
touch, she coughed again before whispering his
name "C-C-Clark…" she moaned softly as Clark
gently scooped her up in his arms "Easy Lana
your safe now or at least you will be when we get
out of here…" Clark spoke softly.
"What happened Clark?" Lana asked weakly
as she tried not to breath in the thick smoke around them,
"I'm not exactly sure, some kind of explosion, nobody
seems badly hurt other than when some of the windows
blew out, Whitney was trying to find you but he seemed a
little worse for wear so I told him to stay put,
funny enough he decided to listen me for a change,
guess he was in no shape to argue…" Clark stated
before coughing himself more for effect than anything else,
Lana let out a weak laugh "Whitney's a stubborn
one and I know he acts like a jerk sometimes but
he does care about me and for that I'm grateful."
she said, Clark's heart sunk at her words,
'What about me?' he thought to himself
she must have noticed his pained expression
and realised how her words stung him,
"But Clark…" she continued and then
stopped a moment trying to find the right
words , "Yes Lana?" he asked as they rounded another
corner of the smoke filled maze of the school, "Your
the best!" she finished as they made their way up
up the stairwell, He blushed as he flashed her his
best 'Kent Charm' smile and wondered if she could feel
his heart racing in his chest…
"Clark?" Jonathon Kent called out into the crowd of students
and teachers as he stepped out the truck Martha at his
side, he found the familiar face of Pete Ross in the crowd
and walked over to him and asked him if he knew where Clark was,
Pete shrugged his shoulders, "Last Time I saw Clark he went
to talk to Whitney Mr Kent…" Martha let out a knowing "Oh"
Realizing Clark had been worried about Lana, "Mr Kent!"
Jonathon turned around to face Whitney who was still
nursing his cut face he had however received treatment
from one of the paramedics who were now on the scene,
"Yes Whitney?" he answered "Clark went to find Lana,
I think she's still inside there, he looked pretty worried.
I would have gone with him, but I was busy bleeding my
brains out on the ground over there" he pointed to
his forehead, he looked both embarrassed and angry
Martha noted… but she knew how Clark felt about
Lana and she thought Whitney must realize that
her Son was keen on her… that would explain
the expression on Whitney's face He's jealous
of Clark she thought to herself, she had to hide
the grin that had started to spread on her face,
somehow she knew Whitney was not the one
for Lana, but she had a pretty good idea who might be.
