Professor Fine saw Clark Leave. He super-sped to follow him. Clark put Lois and Martha at the hospital and he continued running. He ran to the cave to go to the Fortress of Solitude. He knew that Fine would follow him in there.
At the hospital in Smallville, Martha and Lois were each getting taken care of. Neither of them were seriously hurt. At the Metropolis hospital, Lana started to become conscious.
Lex: Lana you're awake!
Lana: Hi Lex.
Lex: Don't sit up, you need to rest.
Lana: What happened?
Lex: You were in a car accident with another SUV. They said that it was a head on collision. I'm glad that you are okay.
Lana: Thanks, Lex.
Lex kissed her head and told her to get some rest. He got into his car and checked the messages on his phone. There was one from Professor Fine. He had been trying to find him for a few weeks now. He had to go meet him at his mansion. When Lex arrived, Lionel was there.
Lex: Dad, what are you here for?
Lionel: Just coming over. I heard about you and Ms. Lang.
Lex: And?
Lionel: I thought Mr. Kent was with her.
Lex: They broke up.
Lionel: Because of you?
Lex: No. Can you just go? I'm waiting for someone.
Lionel: Professor Fine?
Lex: How did you know?
Lionel: I know a lot more than you know Lex.
Lex: Do you know where Professor Fine is?
Lionel: I believe he is chasing Mr. Kent down.
Lex: What? Why?
Lionel: There is a lot about Clark that you do not know about, son.
Lionel left, Lex poured himself a drink and sat on his couch by the fire. He tried calling back the number that Professor Fine called from, but it said that there was no such number.
At the Fortress, Clark and Fine were both there.
Clark: Where have you been? I thought I killed you!
Fine: I can not be destroyed Clark, you should have known that.
Clark: Why are you back?
Fine: I needed a favor from Lex Luthor, I'm supposed to be meeting with him right now.
Clark: I thought you hated him.
Fine: He has a great amount of power that is exactly what I need.
Clark: What do you need him for?
Fine: I can not tell you that information.
Clark: Why not?
Fine: You would try to stop me.
Fine flew out of the Fortress and Clark super-sped after him, but he couldn't catch up. Professor Fine waited until the morning to go to Lex's Mansion.
Fine: Hello Lex.
Lex: You finally came.
Fine: Sorry, I was a little busy last night.
Lex: Well I don't have very much time. Just tell me what you need.
Fine: I need to destroy Clark Kent.
Lex: And how exactly were you planning on doing this?
Fine: There are things that you don't know about your old friend Clark, that would change your whole perspective on him if you knew all of his secrets.
Lex: Why don't you just tell me.
Fine: I can't tell you. You must find out for yourself. If you look around, you will find the answer.
Lex: I don't have anything on him around me.
Fine: Here's two hints- C.S. and L.L. I must go, tell me when you figure it out.
Lex: Well why do I need to figure it out, when you are the one that wants me to help you?
Fine: It's a test, to see if you are capable of it.
Fine left and Lex wondered what in the world C.S. and L.L. could mean. The only thing he could think of was L.L. for Lex Luthor, but...
Lex: Lionel Luthor!
Lex had figured out one of the clues, but the other clue would be easier for him if he figured it out. Lex would never be able to get the secret out of Lionel.
Clark went to the hospital to check on his mother and Lois. He was grateful that they were both okay. He wondered what Lionel would want with them. Was Lionel working with Professor Fine and Lex? He needed to talk to Chloe.
Chloe: Hello?
Clark: Hey Chloe.
Chloe: Hi Clark. What do you need?
Clark: You.
Chloe: Um... what?
Clark: I need you right now.
Chloe: I'm at the planet.
Clark: Be there in a second.
Clark used his super speed and got there faster than a speeding bullet.
Clark: Chloe!
Chloe: Clark, what's so important?
Clark: Well you remember my college professor that disappeared? He's back.
Chloe: Wait, where did he go?
Clark: I'm not really sure actually.
Chloe: Do you know why he's here?
Clark: I'm not positive, but it has sometime to do with Lex. I used my super hearing while he was on the phone, and all I got to hear was something about destroying something.
Chloe: Okay, I'm going to try to find more about where he was. Keep me updated on what's going on.
Chloe went away typing and searching on her computer, and Clark went to go find Professor Fine to see if he could find anymore about it.
At the Metropolis Hospital Lana was being released. Lex was really happy about this. Lex had loved her for so long, and he finally has her. Lex helped her walk to the car and they went back to the mansion. Professor Fine was there.
Fine: Sorry if you weren't expecting me, but I wanted to know if you've found out anything.
Lex: No not yet, it hasn't been very long since I last talked to you.
Fine: I know, but you need to figure it out quickly.
Lex: If I need to find out so quickly, why don't you just tell me?
Fine: I told you before it's a test.
Lana: What are you guys talking about?
Fine: Cla.
Lex: Something about my father.
Lana: Is this something to do with Clark?
Lex: Yes, but he hasn't told me what is going to happen/
Fine: We need to destroy Clark.
Lana: What, why!
Lex: We aren't going to kill him.
Lana: What does destroy mean than?
Fine: Lex, I'll let you guys talk. I will come by tomorrow, be alone though.
Lana: Tell me the truth Lex, what are you guys doing?
Lex: I'm really not sure. He hasn't told me yet.
Lana: Had he said to you that you are going to destroy Clark?
Lex: Well he said something about it, but who knows if that's true. Anyways, why are you so worried about Clark?
Lana: I just don't think that you should "destroy" him, in fact anyone. Please Lex, just stay out of it.
Lex: Okay.
Lana: Thanks Lex.
Lex made Lana tea and they sat on the couch together. Lois and Martha were out of the hospital also and were back at their homes. Clark once again could not track down Professor Fine, and Chloe was having trouble finding stuff about him on her computer. Clark did not know what to do, he needed to find him. Clark wanted to talk to Lex about where he was, but then Lex would know that Clark knew something about what they were doing. He sent Chloe to go talk to Lex about it.
Chloe drove over to Lex's mansion. When he opened the door to enter his main office she was stunned.
