Chapter 1:
Clark quickly walked down the steps at the Daily Planet. He couldn't wait to tell Chloe that he had scored them two tickets to the journalism convention in New York. He knew she had wanted to go but couldn't afford the tickets herself. He probably wouldn't have had enough either if he hadn't been saving up to surprise her with them. Clark went through the double doors and was just about to say her name, when he realized she wasn't at her desk. He pulled his cell-phone out of his pocket and tried calling her, but there was no answer. Then he tried Lois' cell. "Hello," she answered briskly into the phone. "Lois, have you seen Chloe?" He asked bluntly. "Hey Smallville, nice to talk to you too." Clark rolled his eyes and said "Sorry Lois. I'm at the Daily Planet, and she isn't here." "I talked to her about ten minutes ago, and she said something about going over to the Luthor Mansion to talk to Lex, I don't know why. Then Lana was gonna meet her there so they could go get coffee. Why?" She asked "I have a surprise for her but I guess I'll just have to wait. Thanks Lois." He answered. "Anytime, bye." Lois said before hanging up.
…………………………………………………
About ten minutes later Clark was walking down one of the long hallways at the mansion when he heard a loud gunshot come from the library. He super sped up to the doors and burst them open. "Chloe?" She turned around to face him leaning partially on the pool table. He suddenly saw blood streaming from a bullet hole through her chest. "Clark." She said faintly before she started to collapse in his arms. He looked around, but saw no one nearby. "Chloe, what happened?" "Lex" she muttered before putting her hand up to Clark's face and saying "Clark I want you to know that I love you and always will." She started to close her eyes. "No, you can't die!" She drew one last breath, and then her hand fell from Clark's face. "No Chloe, no." He whispered before shouting, "Noooooooooooooooooooooo!" "Clark?" He heard Lana walk in behind him. "What's wrong?" She saw Clark slowly stand up and turn around, holding a limp Chloe in his arms.
…………………………………………………
After Clark and Lana had called the police they stood outside the mansion in silence. Lana was the first to speak. "Clark what happened?" She asked through her tears. "Why don't you ask Lex? He's the one who killed her." He answered his teeth clenched. "Lex? What makes you say that?" She inquired. "That was one of the last things Chloe said to me before she died." "Why don't we have the police check the security cameras and I'll call Lex's cell-phone." She said. "Ok. I should go tell Lois." He said sighing. He knew it would be hard to break it to her. "Do you want me to come with you?" Lana said, starting to dial, but when she turned around he was already gone.
Lois was working on her computer when she heard a voice come from behind her. "Lois." Clark said. "Don't you ever knock Smallville? You do know you're not welcome everywhere." A grin crossed her face, but quickly disappeared when she saw Clark's miserable, tear-stained face. "Clark what is it?" Lois asked concerned. "It's Chloe she's…." Before he finished his sentence he sat in the nearest chair and put his head in his hands. "She's not dead, is she?" Her question was answered when Clark lifted his head, his eyes filling with tears. Lois' hands went to her stomach as if she had just been punched in the gut. "How? I…" Not being able to find her words she also sat down. "I went to find her at the mansion and I heard a gunshot come from the library. When I ran in, there she was with a bullet in her. There was no one else in there with her, though." Do her parents know or Lana?"
"Lana got there shortly after I did and I didn't talk to her parents yet. I was hoping you would do that." He said. "Yeah I will. You can go ahead home if you want." "Are you sure?" Clark asked. "Yeah, I kind of want to be alone anyway." She answered quietly. "Ok, bye Lois." He said before going out and shutting the door. As soon as he was out of the apartment his cell-phone began vibrating. "Hello." He answered clearing his throat. "Hi Clark." It was Lana and she sounded even more upset that the last time he spoke to her. "The police checked the security cameras and it turns out that it…um….was Lex. I can't believe he would do this to her, to us." She said her voice starting to break. There was silence on both ends for a few minutes before Clark said "I'm sorry Lana…If you want you can stay at our house tonight, so that you don't have to go home to an empty apartment." She knew he didn't want her to have to go back to the apartment because Chloe wasn't going to be there. "Ok. Thanks Clark. Can you come pick me up?" "Yeah. I'll be there in about ten minutes. Bye."
…………………………………………………
Lana met Clark in the driveway as he stepped out of the truck. She was just about to say something when somebody behind them said "What's going on here?" Clark spun around to see Lex standing there questioningly. He quickly walked over to Lex and grabbed him by the shirt collar. "Clark what are you doing?" With his teeth clenched he replied "How could you have the nerve to come here after what you did? What did she ever do to you? Why'd you have to kill her?" Clark slammed Lex up against his car and gave him a punch in the jaw. "Clark why are you…" but was stopped in the middle of his sentence when Clark threw another punch at him. Lana hurried to Clark's side and said, "Clark stop! Calm down and go get the police." He reluctantly let go of Lex's shirt collar and started to walk towards the police cars. "Lex how could you do this?" "Lana I seriously don't know what you're talking about." He answered confused. "Stop! I don't want to hear anymore of your lies. For once just tell me the truth." She said her jaw tense. But before he could say anything in return, Clark walked back over with the sheriff and two deputies. The sheriff walked over to Lex and pulled out his handcuffs. While beginning to put them on, he said "Lex Luthor you are under arrest for the murder of Chloe Sullivan. Anything you say or do can and will be used against you in the court of law." Lex looked at Clark bafflingly, but all Clark did was turn away and walk over to where Lana was standing. One of the deputies put his hand on Lex's shoulder and pushed him into the back of the police car. As they drove away, Lex saw Clark pull a now crying Lana into his arms.

When Clark and Lana stepped onto the porch of the Kent house later that night, Martha met them at the door. "Clark where have you been? You were supposed to be home two hours ago." She stated. "Mom, I…" All of the sudden every thing went black.
