Walking as fast as he could down the school hallways, Clark pushed aside everyone that tried to get in his way, taking sharp turns when he finally got to the door of the Torch office. Smiling wearily and rushing into it to find a blonde haired girl placing a bunch of books in her backpack looking up at him with a chuckle, he sighed in relief and walked up to her, placing his hands on her shoulder as she darted one of her eyebrows down and pulled away from him a little confused.

"Chloe, you're just the person I want to see." He told her, gulping saliva down his dry throat as she swung her purse over her shoulder and walked over to the door, shrugging and placing her hand on the post of the entrance while she was still facing him as she grinned at kindly.

"Talk at the Talon Clark, remember? I got to get going if I'm going to get a ride from Jessica Miller." Clark just stared at Chloe for a minute before putting on another smile and letting her walk out. Chloe looked back, "See you later Clark."

He just smiled and waved back to her, then went inside and sat down at one of the desks. He twirled a pencil around in his hand before putting it down and searching through the desk for something to keep him occupied. As he dug he felt something sharp slice into his hand. He yelped and quickly pulled it out to examine it. There was a huge gash in his hand. Horrified that he was actually hurt, he pulled out his pocket knife and slid it across his finger. He knew he wasn't hallucinating when blood hurried to the surface of the cut. Terrified at what was happening, he left the Torch, got into his truck and sped away.

Driving down the road somewhat quickly, Clark bit his lower lip as he tried to hold his palm against the steering wheel as tight as he could to stop the bleeding, a napkin wrapped around it as he panicked dearly. What was going on with him? First this morning he couldn't super speed and all through school he had a pounding headache. Now he had actually cut himself. He, the invincible Clark Kent had his skin incised. He was pretty much freaking out at the moment.

Trying his best to pay attention to the road in front of him, he gulped loudly and blew air through his cheeks, ignoring the throbbing twinge in his hand and the fear that was jumbling up in his stomach as he tried to just concentrate on getting to the Talon. Maybe then telling Pete about what was going on could take a load off of him. But right when he felt relived a sudden, abrupt piercing buzz rang in the back of his neck, causing him to shriek loudly and hold his head with one of his hands whole closing his eyes tightly in pain.

Trying to ignore the sharp hum, he opened his eyes and tried to keep the truck on the road the best he could. It wasn't helping much though. He closed his eyes tightly again not noticing the car swerve violently on the road as he opened his eyes once more, but all he saw were bright lights so closing them again was all he could do. He only opened his eyes once more when he heard a low honking.

Clark's eyes went wide as he saw a large, white semi truck heading right towards him, and his limbs went numb in fear. Knowing that he had to do something, he closed his eyes tightly, the drone in his head no longer a bother to him since he was more terrified of what was going on while he slammed his foot on the brake. It wasn't working. "Oh god." He whispered, trying over and over to force the pedal but having no luck in stopping the vehicle. Before anything else could happen though, the hefty truck impacted to the front of his car and everything around him went black.

Clark woke up a few seconds after the collision, his head was pounding fiercely and…wait he couldn't move anything…why? That's when the pain hit him. It was all over his body. He attempted to take a deep breath but started coughing as soon as he tried. He looked around; the inside of the truck was a wreck. Horrified, he looked out the other side just in time to see another car coming right at him. 'No' was his last thought as everything went black once again.
