A/N: Hey sorry for the long wait. I've been writing future chapters and I have also been having some computer problems. Okay, I know you have waited a long time for this story so I'll only do a few shout outs.
Scary-Girly: yes, Clark does like Lois in the comic books.
Crazy Danae: you will find out why he doesn't remember anything from this trip in future chapters.
DuMont: That's the whole reason that I stop in the worst places. I like to see you sweat.
Chapter FivePete and Pete
The handle started turning and Pete stood in shock when he saw himself come through the door. The older looked really mature and was very muscular, probably from always helping Clark out with his 'work', and he also seemed to have a pretty good sense of style. His hair was still the same but all in all, he looked about the same.
When they saw each other they just stood in shock staring at each other.
" My god will you two stop looking in a mirror and say something?" Younger Clark said.
" How in the world did this happen, Clark, um, well the older one, not you?" Older Pete said, noticing his younger best friend for the first time. " What did you do? Clone yourself?"
" No, I did not clone myself, and I have no idea how this happened. But, so as not to seem rude, I would like you to meet you and me." Older Clark said gesturing to younger Clark and Pete. Older Clark had a smile on his face at his older best friends bewildered look on his face and couldn't hold his laughter anymore. He burst out laughing and everyone followed suit. Younger Clark was the first to follow then came younger Pete and lastly older Pete. Soon the room was filled with laughter.
" Will everyone be quiet in there? Some people are actually trying to work" Lois said form her office next door. She poked he head out after she had said the to give everyone a good glare. Once she was gone everyone was pretty much back to normal.
" Now that's the Lois I remember." Younger Clark said stifling a laugh.
" Yeah I know, honestly Clark I told you to be careful about who you didn't like." Older Pete said.
" So what did you come down here to tell me?" Older Clark said hurriedly changing the subject.
" Well you know the story you're working on? I found someone who might've seen what happened down in those caves." Older Pete said. " She said she saw the people pull off the job, and she also said she saw that there were some very valuable artifacts in the bags they had with them. These rocks they took apparently had strange symbols on them and I'm guessing that those symbols were kryptonion."
At this moment younger Clark and Pete finally put together the pieces. It had all started when Clark had picked up that rock. What did that symbol mean? Oh yeah, it meant time.
Older Clark noticed the looks on their faces.
" Hey what's wrong guys?" Older Clark asked.
" I know how we got here!" Younger Clark exclaimed.
" I would hope so. I wouldn't want an insane intern." Lois said as she waked into the room. " I already have an insane coworker." She went over to the minifridge and pulled out a coke. " Well, I'm off to do some more research. See you later, Smallville." Lois said in a teasing tone as she left the room.
As soon as they knew she was gone younger Clark started telling them about his theory on how Pete and him had gotten there. After he was done, everyone looked at him with a shocked expression on their face.
" It's just a guess, but I think whoever touches that rock with their bare hands, will automatically go into their future and will see what they will become. It's a little farfetched but I think it might be true." Younger Clark said getting a little bit nervous about the others not talking.
" Yeah, but what if you want to go into the past?" Older Clark asked.
" I think there might be different stones." Younger Clark said, " When we were in the cave, right before we got here I could feel a cavity in the back of the rock. It felt as though another rock would lock right into it."
" One for the future and another for the past." Older Clark said, mostly to himself.
" Exactly." Younger Clark said.
" That could cause a lot of trouble if those rocks fell into the wrong hands." Older Pete said.
" Yeah," Younger Pete replied, " Not only would someone be able to travel into their future and see what would happen, they could alter the past so their whole lives would change. And they could also change history. They could do a lot of damage if those rocks fell into the wrong hands."
" Who did the girl see leave the caves that night?" Older Clark asked.
" She said that she couldn't see their faces but the trucks she was driving were Luther corp. trucks." Older Pete said.
" Luther Corp.!" Younger Clark and Pete said together.
" Um, uh, guys, a lot of things have changed in the past 7 years." Older Clark said.
