Chapter III: Trinity, Chloe & Lana meet the KentsTrinity turned the black FireHawk down the road leading to the Kent farm. The car was set in the Pursuit mode and was cruising about 75 miles an hour. They stared at the farm as they were approaching it.
Chloe Sullivan and Lana Lang-Kent stared at the farm through the one moniter screen the car came equipped with. Trinity climbed out of the car and looked around.
"KARR, go to surveilence mode and see if you can scan for the Kent's truck. It's red and has Kansas plates." Trinity said as she used her X-ray vision to search for the Kents. KARR, The Knight Automated Roving Robot designed after the original Knight 2000, but designed with state of the art technology and various anti-virus programs as well as the programming to protect human life, spoke after a few minutes.
"Miss Trinity, I'm sorry to report but I have scanned the DMV here in Kansas, found the model truck and license plates for the Kents vehicle, but I do not scan them here. Can any of you remember where they would be on this day?" The cold, unfeeling voice processor of the Knight 3000 said. Chloe shook her head as she looked around at the farm she would know later in life some 12-13 years later. Lana then slapped her hand on the roof of the car as she got out and scanned the farm as well.
"My Aunt Nell…I remember her telling me that when I was 3 the Kents went to her store to buy flowers. Tulips if I remember. That's where they would be headed." She said. Trinity smiled and began to hope and pray Lana was right. They climbed back into the prototype and KARR shifted to "AUTO CRUISE" mode and began to drive at an incredible speed toward downtown Smallville.
Downtown Smallville, Kansas-Jonathan & Martha Kent pulled up to Nell's flower shop, unaware of the meteor shower and the Kryptonian baby it bore. Jonathan smiled at Nell, whom he had dated some years ago prior to his meeting, dating, and marrying Martha.
"Now Jonathan I want you to remember that we are here to pick up flowers not hire Nell okay?" Martha said whispering in his ear as they walked into the shop. Nell smiled as she saw Jonathan Kent then cringed as she saw Martha. She had envied Martha.
"What brings the reclusive Kents into town?" She asked. The farmer and his wife had been a part of Smallville ever since the two had gotten married years ago, but they came into town very rarely unless if it was to pick up something for the farm. Childless they loved little Lana Lang as if she were their own and were on friendly terms with the Langs, whom Martha had known since High School.
"Tulips. Their Jonathan's favorite." Martha said cheerfully. Nell moved to help Jonathan and Martha smiled at the pretty 3-4 year old girl who was dressed in a Fairy Princess costume. Martha always admired the girl's imagination.
"Lana, what are you supposed to be?" She asked the girl. The girl smiled. "I'm a fairy Princess. You want to make a wish?" the girl asked. Martha smiled at the girl. She said,"Of course I would love to make a wish." She knelt down and Lana waved the wand over Martha's head saying the words "Abracadabra". Martha smiled at her, not wanting the sadness that her wish would not come true to alarm the girl. Jonathan smiled at his wife, knowing what she wished for all of her life. But they were sterile, unable to have children of their own. Martha had prayed and prayed for a child every night, but she decided that having a child was not The Lord's will for her, so she quit praying and went about her day. Jonathan walked outside and saw a black car coming toward them at an incredible speed.
"Martha, I know what you want. But you know you can't have it. Accept it." He said gently. He then turned as the car parked behind them as other cars were pulling out to go celebrate the fact that Smallville High had won another football game.
"Mr. & Mrs. Kent, you have to come with us." Trinity said as the three girls climbed out of the car.
"Who are you?" Jonathan asked. Trinity smiled.
"Who I am is not important. What is important is that you need to go to Shyler's bridge to the Brown cornfield right now." Trinity said as KARR made his turbine enging rev with all the power it had.
"What's there?" Jonathan asked Trinity. They saw Martha climb out. Lana spoke. "What you have been praying for all of your lives. A child. A boy. But you must hurry." Lana said as she spotted herself. She then looked into the eyes, and smiled as she detected the younger version of herself's DNA being overridden by the coming Kryptonite fragments. And by the biological father of her husband, Jor-El of Krypton.
Martha smiled. She then tugged on the arm of her husband."Let's go!" She said.
