It didn't really occur to Jason exactly how he was going to do it. There was obviously no point in looking for him in a phone book, and Jason certainly did not want to talk to Richard at the moment. He would have to find another way. Then he remembered…
Jason reached into his jean pocket and extracted the long, glass-like crystal he had been given earlier. With all the things going on in his head, he had barely even looked at it. It was about eight inches long, completely transparent, and perfectly symmetric. It had eight faces on all three of the sections, the body and the two ends. It was thin enough so that Jason could easily wrap it in his fist. He remembered having seen an artifact like this before, but he couldn't remember where or when. He looked at it carefully and held it up, seeing how the rising sun's light split into the different colours of the spectrum when seen through the crystal. And then, to Jason's surprise, it started moving, on its own.
Jason felt his arm being pulled strongly by the crystal. So strongly, in fact, that he couldn't defy it, even with his enhanced strength. Jason was forced to get up the swing and be led by the tugging rock. He practically had to run at a quick pace in order to keep up with it.
It led him through several streets, turning several corners, until he realized he now was in downtown Metropolis. He left behind several shops and apartment buildings. Jason thought he recognized the Daily Planet headquarters as he zoomed passed it. A couple of blocks after that the crystal stopped tugging, but Jason did not stop running. He tried to slow down, but it was too late.
Jason collided straight into none other than Clark Kent.
