The next day at school: Lana walked up to Clark. She looked worried.
"Clark, Kira missing!"
"What? How?"
"Well, Mr. Kat, Kira's dad, said she wasn't in her room this morning and there were signs of a brake-in. He called the police but I'm still really worried about her. I mean who would want to hurt Kira."
"Mac!"
"Who's Mac?"
"He's a guy that lent Mr. Kat some money, but when he came to get the money back Mr. Kat didn't have it. So Mac wanted to take Kira to make sure he'd pay up, but he talked Mac out of it. And now he's been following them."
"How do you know that?"
"Kira told me when he came to the Talon. We should check with Chloe and see if she can do a background check on this Mac guy."
"Sounds good, thank you so much."
"It's OK; I mean it's been about a week without a background check. To tell you the truth I was starting to think things had calmed down for once, guess not." Lana smiled at Clark's 'joke' as the two entered the Torch office.
"Lana, Clark, what's up?"
"This girl that Lana was taking care of…"
"Kira, yea what about her?"
"You know Kira?"
"I know of her. Lana told me she was helping a little girl but I've never actually meet the famous Kira."
"Why am I always the last one to know?"
"Well, Clark we don't talk as much as we use to." Lana said sadly.
"OK I'm pretty sure this is not why you're here."
"O right well Kira's MIA and I think that this guy that she told me wanted her for collateral might be the reason. Do you think you could check him out?"
"Sure, what's the name?"
"Um Mac Jones."
"OK I'll see what I can come up with."
"Thanks Chloe this is a big help."
"No problem Lana, what are roommates for."
'Brrrring'
"We better get to class, see ya latter Chloe."
"Yeah see ya Clark."
Latter at the Talon after school: Chloe walked in with a very nervous look on her face.
"Clark, that guy you asked me to check out well I found something, take a look at this." She handed him a cluster of papers
"What is it?"
"Well you know Dr. Garner, Ryan's doctor at Somerholt; it seems that this Mac Jones is Dr. Garner's brother, close brother. Infact the two worked on more then a few projects together including Ryan and the memory tank before Dr. Garner died. And I found a section of Mac's research that's completely devoted to Kira Kat and her strange abilities. Now I'm guessing that he wants Kira for more then just collateral."
"Wow, Chloe this is great."
"It took a while because about eight years ago he illegally changed his name to get rid of his criminal record. Look at this, Benny Garner as been to court for a number of misdemeanors and once he was charged with kidnapping, but look who paid for his lawyer."
"Dr. Garner, figures. Do you know where Mac is now?"
"No sorry but I'll keep trying. I have to hand it to him when he wants to hide he can really stay hidden."
"Thanks Chloe"
In an old warehouse: there was a bunch of machines everywhere and doctors were swarming the place as well. Mac was walking with a guy when another walked up to them.
"Dr. Jones, we've got number 16 ready for you now."
"Good let's go." The three walked in to a new white booth. Through the glass there were some doctors that hocked up someone to some machine. The doctors walked away and left Kira alone.
"Please don't hurt me please, please let me go." Kira pleaded with the strange doctors.
"All set."
"Commencing bio-scan" The computer voice announced. "Bio-scan complete" It said again "Commencing endurance testing." Kira started to shack violently and scream while Mac smiled evilly.
Back at the Talon: Lana walked out of the back room
"Hey Clark"
"Lana, um Chloe stopped by she found some things on Mac. It seems he's related to Dr. Garner and he's been researching Kira."
"Is she OK? Does Chloe know where she is?"
"No, I'm sorry Lana."
"It's OK you got something." Lana took a deep breath then sighed "I just wanna know if she's okay and see her." Clark hugged her.
"I know, I know." Just then Lex walked in.
"Something wrong" Lex asks
"Lex…" Clark said "You know that girl you met here yesterday?" Lex nodded "Well she's missing now and I have a pretty good idea of who took her." He handed Lex the papers.
"This isn't enough to get the police involved you know that right."
"We just want her back." Lana said "She's just a 14 year old girl."
"Yea well, I'll see what I can do."
"Thanks Lex, but you don't have to."
"I know but I want to."
"OK."
"I'll get started right away."
"Alright, bye."
"And thank you so much." Lana said as Lex went out the door. He turned around and smiled.
Back at the warehouse: Kira was running toward a door with sub-level D on it, when she opened it she saw Lionel Luther and a lady talking
"Look Karen I don't care what you say she's not mine!"
"Lionel, she is I swear she is. My husband was away at a seminar for a month than all the sudden I was pregnant!"
"Then why come to me now two years later, what do you want? Do you want money? Because I won't give you any so you're wasting your time."
"No, that's not it at all; I have to tell Ken about what we did. I can keep lying to him. He loves her so much I just want him to know she's our daughter, but you won't admit that."
"Of course not, she's not mine; you just want money from me. I bet Ken put you up to this."
"I swear he doesn't even know."
"Good and you won't tell him, this conversation is over."
"Did you even listen to me, I'm gonna tell him after work today."
"Goodbye Karen."
"Karen?" Kira said "I remember this but I didn't look like this I was younger, wait I was two." She started to breath heavy. "No, Karen, MOM!"
"Is it ready?"
"Let's just say you won't see sub-level D anymore."
"Good."
"MOM! No! Look out!"
"What?" she said as her mother disappeared from her sight and she was facing Lionel Luther.
"So boss should we take care of the girl too."
"NO! You leave the girl alone, do you hear me? Not you or anyone else, no one can touch her. Do you understand me, no one?"
"Yes sir, no one."
"MOM!" Kira screamed while there was an explosion. Kira woke up, and was shocked to find she was still in the warehouse.
"Good we're making progress." Mac said as he smiled.
"I think we should take a brake for a while. She needs a rest." Said the doctor.
"No we need to continue. She'll be fine, now increase the pressure."
"Increasing pressure to level 16." The computer voice announced.
Meanwhile at the Luther Manor: Lex was hard at work on his computer when his dad came in.
"What are you working on so late, son?"
"Just helping out a friend, dad."
"Anything I can do to help." He said as he peered over at the computer. The second he saw Kira Kat's name he's expression on his face became very angry.
"What happened to her?" he asked half growling.
"She was kidnapped a couple of days ago."
"I have to make a call." He told his son as he walked out the door. "Hello, where are you guys, why didn't you tell me Kira has been kidnapped, I want you to find her and get her back to her father immediately!" he yelled into the phone.
see what did i tell you here's the point... Kira's dreams all have a point to them,some are simbolic and some are strate forward and some are memories...which means there will be many more dreams...well that's all...for now
