Chapter 2

"Let's talk." Lex said gritting his teeth. Clark watched helplessly as Lex dragged Parker outside and forced Parker in his car.

Point of view is back to Parker

Note from the Author- (Sorry I didn't intend to keep switching point of views... so I hope it doesn't annoy you guy's...)

"Where are we going?" Parker asked nervously.

"To level 31.3." Lex said with an eery calm voice. "I recently acquired a round object which I thought was a space ship. And now its gone. How do you explain that?"

"Spaceships don't exist." Parker said avoiding the topic.

"You'd be surprised." Lex said, with a push of a button his car doors were locked. "Don't even try leaving while I show them my ID, we aren't through talking."

"Should I be worried?" Parker said as the fear started to set.

"Only if you're responsible for a spherical shaped spaceship to be missing from my lab." Lex said calmly as he showed the security guy his badge.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Parker lied.

"Where here, follow me I want to show you something." Lex said.

"Ok." Parker said only because he desperately needs to find out about the project that Lex is working on so that he can stop Lex from blowing up Smallville.

"Search him." Lex ordered the security guard at the door to his laboratory. Lex watched as the security guard found a gun, a pocket knife, a wallet, and a set of key's.

"Is this really necessary?" Parker asked nervously.

"Yes, come have a seat in my office and I'll explain." Lex offered graciously.

"I'm listening." Parker said after he sat down in a wooden chair in front of Lex's desk. With a push of a button straps popped out of the chair binding Parker's arms and legs to the chair. "What's going on?" He asked thinking he should have ran when they were at the coffee shop. He watched as a man came in and started strapping a lie detector test to Parker.

"I want a full in depth profile on Frank Parker here's his driver's license." Lex told another guy that just walked in. Lex turned to Parker and said. "I need to know what you know about the Sphere. We can do this the hard way or the easy way. You choose by you're responses to my questions."

"Is you're name Frank Parker." Lex asked as a control question.

Parker said nothing in hoping to talk some sense into Lex, and protect the secrets of the Back-Step program.

"You're going to answer wether you like it or not." Lex said pulling out a needle with a very powerful truth serum enhanced with meteor rock.

"What's that?" Parker asked as he struggled to get free of the restraints. Lex shot the green fluid into Parker's arm.

"This is a truth serum. With in a matter of minutes you will tell me everything you know about the Sphere that was stolen." Lex replied.

"Is you're name Frank Parker?" Lex asked again.

"Yes." Parker said.

Lex tried to think of an outrageous question to be a control for a lie... "Have you ever gone back into time?"

"Yes." Parker revealed.

"What when, why, how?" Lex asked in shock as he checked the lie detector making sure it was the same as his name.

"A few day's ago, to stop you from blowing up Smallville, and that Sphere you stole was my mood of transportation back into time." Parker said truthfully.

"How did you think you were going to stop me?" Lex asked curiously.

"By talking to Clark, he was the only one who survived the explosion." Parker said.

Back to Clark's point of view (Back at the Talon)

"Check please!" Clark yelled so he could pay for the coffee he had. Clark felt responsible for Lex taking Parker so he followed the car with his supper speed. He noticed the building Lex took Parker too was completely surrounded by guards and security camera's. He tried to think of how he was going to get in without showing his power's on camera. He looked through the surrounding gate and used his heat vision to blow out the camera's.

"What's going on?" One of the security guys who were watching the camera's came out.

"Pssss. Clark over here." Clark looked around and heard a whisper from the bushes.

"What how did you get out here? I just saw you go in there with Lex." Clark asked Parker.

"Ya, I went back in time to try to stop this from happening again but I could only go back 7 day's and if you go in there Lex will capture you and experiment on you." Parker said.

"Wait so you came back in time to save me?" Clark asked.

"Well originally I went back in time to stop Lex from blowing up Smallville killing everyone but you in town." Parker said.

"So how are we going to save you from Lex then without him capturing me?" Clark asked.
