Chapter 3
"Clark? What are we doing here?" asks Rebecca.
"I know about you, you have powers just as I do," responds Clark.
"How?" asks Rebecca.
"You showed me them... I'll explain on the way to the hospital," says
Clark.
Clark and Rebecca superspeed to the hospital and enter Lana's room,
where she sleeps. Clark walks over to her and awakens her.
"Clark? Why's Rebecca here?" asks Lana.
"I just rescued her, but I need to know, she didn't attack you. Tell
me more about who you saw," says Clark.
"I'm pretty sure now that the person was a woman," says Lana.
The door opens, and a green bullet cuts through Rebecca's body and
she falls to the ground. Clark moves to help her, but the weapon's holder
holds it at Clark.
"This has a kryptonite bullet. It will kill you immeaditly. She is
already dead. There's nothing you can do Clark," says the woman, a cloth
hiding her face.
"Who are you?" asks Clark.
"I'm Lana," says the woman, revealing her face.
Lana looks at the older version of herself, confusion flooding her
face.
"Whats going on?" asks Clark.
"Well you see, I didn't try to harm Lana, just put her in a place
where I could keep you while I needed to talk to you," says Lana.
"About what?" asks Clark.
"You see, In three years you are going to leave me, to go to
Metropolis. No, thats a lie. In the universe that I am from, you leave me.
In this universe, you marry Lana, you move to Metropolis, and you become a
reporter. But in my universe, you marry a woman named Lois Lane. And so I
decided, that if I couldn't have you, neither could she. So I brought a
Clark Kent that had been evil in his universe, and am going to have him
kill you," says older Lana, as the evil, older Superman walks into the
room.
Young Lana gets out of her bed, the kryptonian breath balancing out
her system, and she stands in front of young Clark.
"I won't let you kill him," says young Lana.
"Then I will kill you," says older Lana, firing the kryptonian bullet
at Clark and a normal bullet at Lana.
Clark dives in front of both bullets, and takes them both, sending
him to the ground, the lead bullet falling to the ground and the kryptonian
bullet wedging into his lung. Older Lana fires another bullet, which
pierces Lana's heart, and sends her to the ground.
"No!" says Clark lowly, crawling over to Lana, and cradling her in
his arms, even though the pain in him is immense.
He digs within himself, and finds the power to drill out the bullet
with his heat vision, which he quickly does, and he immeaditly grows
stronger.
"I don't believe it! But thats why I brough him," says older Lana,
motioning for the much darker, more evil superman to kill Clark.
"You die now Clark," says Evil Superman.
"No, I won't," says Clark, staring into the Evil Superman's face.
"What can you possibly do?" asks Evil Superman.
"You'll find that I'm full of surprises," says Clark, staring him
down.
