Chapter 3
There was an empty building, an empty storage space, in an Empty city, Metropolis. It was old but clean, 'Luther research department' branded its façade.
In this dark, empty laboratory a middle-aged scientist worked away, typing on a computer. He was deeply absorbed in his task until a certain bald billionaire interrupted him.
"Interesting," he said, "very interesting..."
"Oh, hello Mr. Luthor!" he was a little startled.
"Is this what you call a laboratory?" Lex said, a skeptical look on his face.
"Yes, I just got my computer set up. I still need to get my equipment shipped in and installed to the main frame computer at Luther Corp in Metropolis."
"Well, I expect some progress, Mr. Walgrave, a cure or a solution before Monday or you'll have to answer to me." Lex said with his best Luther face, reminding that he could make his life miserable with one word.
"There will be progress, soon." He said as Lex walked out of the dark room, "very soon..."

Clark walked into the Torch office to be greeted by Chloe's half wave. She was absorbed in her computer, barley noticing him.
"Hey, what's up?"
"I'm looking into the Kripto drug case, Interesting, that's all I have to say." She said.
"Whatcha got?" Clark asked.
"Well, a lot of stuff, mostly I found out what the drugs are made out of."
"Really? They looked like Kryptonite to me."
"Yeah, theoretically they're a combination of Kryptonite, cocaine and steroid capsules. Though there is a very small amount of Kryptonite, It serves as a catalyst and a reactant. It basically strengthens the affect of the drugs and enables the mutant recipient of the drug to get high. They are also capable of strength beyond anything I've ever seen." Chloe said.
"Wow." Clark sighed, "that could prove to be pretty dangerous, couldn't it?"
"Yep. The addictive strength of the drugs is far more powerful than the steroid capsules and the cocaine combined, even though there's only a small amount of Kryptonite. That's why the drugs last so shortly. Don needed many of them to make it last."
"How is Don doing?" Clark was curious as to how things went the other day at the stadium after he left.
"They took him into the station and he went into uber withdrawal. He died this morning. I'm sorry. I thought you knew." Chloe said, a sympathetic look on his face.
"Wow," Clark couldn't help but feel bad. "I guess that tells us what kind of stuff we're dealing with."
"Yeah, you know what happened before he died? He talked delusionaly about the greek fertility goddess, Hera"
"Hera?"
"Yeah. Weird isn't it?"
"Maybe he could he be talking about the person behind the drugs. Maybe its code or somthing."
"You never know. He was going through withdrawal and was majorly out of it. I hope we can make some sense of it soon." Chloe said, her voice sounded concerned. "Clark?"
"Yes?"
"I want you to be careful. We still don't know what injecting the drug into a normal person would do. This is dangerous stuff we're dealing with. I'd hate for you to be injured because of a savior complex. " A concerned look was on her face.
"I'll be careful Chloe, don't worry." Clark said.
"You doing anything today?" She said turning to her computer.
"Yeah, I'm going out to eat with Lex in Metropolis." He said.
"That sounds fun!" Chloe said, "don't let me stop you, have fun!"
"Thanks. I really got to go." Clark said, "I told him Id meet him at 12:30 and I don't want to be late."
Clark left the torch office energized, and headed to the manor. He was happy that he would get an opportunity to relax with all that was happening and spend some time with Lex. He exited the school and super-speeded all the way there.
