A/N : Will Lex save his father? Read on......
Disclaimer : Nope, still not mine!
"Lex, help me!"
Lionel Luthor called to his son. Lex stood up from where the force of the storm had flung him. The windows had exploded into the room as the violence of the tempest outside hit the Luthor Mansion.
The sheer force had knocked Lex into the far wall and pushed a cabinet on top of him. Lionel, his father, had been forced down too. His legs and lower body were trapped under a pillar and the fatally sharp end of a fractured beam inched closer and closer towards his chest.
Sheer brute force and pure adrenaline, helped the younger Luthor to throw the cabinet from on top of his body and away across the room, but no amount of trying in the world would have allowed Lionel to free himself from his current situation. He called to his son for help, once more.
Lex staggered to his feet. Every bone and muscle in his body felt like it had been beaten to within an inch of it's life. A cut, just above his left eye, bled heavily, impairing his vision of the room in which he stood. He could make out shapes; his desk the shattered window and then his father, the marbled pillar pinning him to the ground and the broken beam threatening his life.
Lionel Luthor, for the first time in his life was helpless and Lex had power over him, but how far was Alexander Luthor prepared to push things.
"Why?" Lex asked coldly, "Why should I help you? You never helped me. You were ever there when I needed you - not when Mom died, not ever!" Years of bitterness erupted in Lee's pained voice.
"Son, I always loved you. Alexander, you know you mean the world to me..." Lionel began, but his son interrupted him.
"You never cared about me!" he screamed over the roar of the storm.
"Please Lex, I'm your father, please help me!"
Lex hated to admit he had a conscience, but he had. He seriously doubted his father was similarly afflicted, which was one of reasons that he was seriously considering staying where he was and letting his father fend for himself. After all, that is what he had done to Lex all his life.
It was too much. Lionel let out a blood-curdling scream and Lex couldn't take it. He hated to be treated like his father and he was certainly not going to act like him, especially now. He could not let his father suffer any longer.
Lex stepped forward preparing to lift the pillar that secured his fathers legs to the round, but he was too late...
A/N : Well, what do you think? Please review and tell me if you like it so far. Chapter 3 will bring the two characters together and by chapter 4 it should get even more interesting!
