Chloe had arrived at the crater that Lana told her about. She climbed down into it and saw nothing like what Lana had described. 'Well, Lana was right. There is no spaceship here.' Chloe took a closer look around at the crater. Then she saw them. A few larger than human sized footprints and three triangular depressions that could have been from landing gear. She got out her camera and took a few pictures. " I've got to find Clark and show him these."


Jonathan pulled up to the miltary camp which had grown sizably since he left. It seemed like most of Smallville had come there. People who's homes had been destroyed and people who were there just to help. He went to check on Martha. "Jonathan, where have you been! I've been worried sick!"

"Sorry honey, I got held up in the cave and the roads around here are a big mess. Craters everywhere. Lionel Luthor was in the cave when I got there Martha."

"What was he doing there!"

"I don't know but he says that something happened to him during the meteor shower and he said he could read the wall."

"Those walls don't say anything about Clark though right?"

"Clark never said they named him in particular but Lionel asked me quite directly if I knew anybody who shot fire from their eyes. I'm concerned that he knows Clark's secret. We've been so lucky so far with the Luthors. I'm just worried if our time is up."

"If he knows we'll have to deal with it as a family like we always do."

Jonathan smiled. "I think that knock to the head turned you into my clone."

"No only years of marriage having to listen to you say stuff like that everyday. Jonathan you need to go find Clark. I'll be fine. Lois and I are having a great time." Jonathan looked over at Lois who was sound asleep in a chair.

"Ok. I'm going to go back to the farm and see if he's there."

"Be careful Jonathan. The radio says that a line of strong Thunderstorms are headed this way, as if the meteor shower wasn't enough." Jonathan gave Martha and kiss, and then nudged Lois awake.

"Ahhh red cape!" Lois blinked a few times and looked around. "What is it with that dream?"

"Lois I need you to watch Shelby for me." He could tell Lois did not like the sound of that.

"Anything for the man who put me up rent free in his house for the last few months, which I actually need to talk to you guys about later."

"Ok, I'll see you ladies later." Jonathan said and strode off.
