This is my first try at Fan-Ficion EVER so please, be gentle. I don't
own any of these characters from Smallville expect for the new girl,
and maybe one or two small people in the future.
This story takes place between Smallville's 2nd Season episodes "Vortex"
and "Heat."
A Short Prologue
A young girl ran down the darkened streets of Metropolis as the rain
poured down even harder.
Not knowing what time it was, and not really caring, she started to
run. All she knew was that she had to run and run as fast as she could.
What was she running from? She didn't know. Tired, wet, and hungry,
the young girl pulled her thin coat closer around her.
It seemed that almost everyone in Metropolis was asleep because there
was hardly anyone on the streets, except for the occasional person
walking a dog or some such. A few cars flew down the roads at super
speed, splashing mud everywhere.
The girl had nothing. No dry clothes. No home. No family. And from what
she could remember, no name. All she knew was to keep going, keep
running. And never stopping until she reach her destination.
She was so caught up in her thoughts, she ran straight into a middle aged man
walking down the sidewalk. "Hey!" he yelled. "What's your problem?"
The girl didn't even look back. Her thoughts were elsewhere.
In her mind, all she could think of was a name of a place. Smallville.
She didn't know who or what was there, but if she got there, maybe
she would finally be safe. Safe from them...
