Chapter 6
Kent Farm
As Clark saw Chloe was about to fall he moved quickly to her catching her in his arms. "Chloe? Chloe!" he called but there was no response.

"Clark take her to the guestroom" Martha said to him and followed him into the guestroom.

As Clark laid her down on the bed in the guestroom Martha told him to step back so she could examine Chloe.

"Well?" Clark asked after a while.

Martha looked at her son "she collapsed from exhaustion. with plenty of rest and some food she's gonna be fine" Clark let go of a breath he didn't even know he was holding.

"I'm going to make some soup for her when she wakes up. her stomach won't accept solid food just yet." Martha said and gave Jonathan a look that said follow-me.

"She's really alive Jonathan" Martha said to her husband.

"I know Martha, people must be after her if she is to arrive in such a state" Jonathan replied.

"That poor girl must have gone through so much. I wonder where she has been for the past 9 years." Martha said.

Jonathan picked up Chloe's backpack and said "Maybe there is something in here that will tell us that."

He opened the backpack and retrieved a book from it. "Oh my God" Martha exclaimed recognizing the book.

Jonathan looked at the title and read out loud "Magic of Avalon", he looked at his wife and asked "Is this the book that Lois had with her when..." he asked her.

Martha nodded letting her fingers go over the cover, suddenly the book glowed and opened.

Dear Martha,
Please don't be scared, this is just a letter I have magically placed in the book and was to appear when you alone touched it. You know I had the power of visions, one of them was this one.
I know you must be scared of how this situation will affect your son. I have a confession to make, let me take you back to that day I came to you to help you with your problem...

About 18 years ago, old Kent Farm
"It's just we've tried everything Lois and nothing seems to help. You know I wouldn't ask you-" Martha Kent said but was interrupted.

Queen of Avalon Lois Sullivan was the one who interrupted Martha by saying "Please Martha, you're my best friend, you're more then my best friend, you're like a sister to me. and if I can help you two with this I will. I know how a wonderful mother you'll be."

The two women hugged each other tightly. when the let go of each other they looked into each others eyes. "Ok let's get this started" Lois said closing her eyes and placing her hand on Martha's stomach.

"La dea di vita ed il firtillity che invito il potere di thee. Guarire la sua donna e consentirla il bambino merita. porta del mio potere e farlo giustamente. porta della mia vita-forza e consentire questa donna avere il suo più grande desiderio. Chiedo di thee e ho lasciato cosí è" (Goddess of life and firtillity I call upon thee power. Heal your woman and allow her the child she deserves. take of my power and make it right. take of my life-force and allow this woman to have her greatest desire. I ask of thee and so let it be) Lois said and her hand on Martha's stomach glowed yellow then the light went into Martha and her stomach glowed blue then the light extinguished.

"You're-" Lois started but stopped when a vision hit her and her eyes turned white.

"Lois what is it? What did you see?" Martha asked her knowing the signs of when Lois was having a vision.

"Your son" Lois told Martha "I can see him, he'll be special, not like me, but special. I also see you will be able to do magic now. you've been blessed by the goddess." Lois told Martha. "and-" Lois stopped "something that isn't important now." her eyes turned back normal.

"You must see Jonathan tonight, for you'll only be fertile tonight." Lois told Martha.

Martha hugged Lois who hugged her back "thank you" Martha said to Lois.

"Anytime" Lois replied.

About 18 years later,
You remember this? Lois voice said then added "of course you do, what I didn't tell you that night is that I also saw our children rule Avalon. I ask you to look out for both my daughter and your son, but knowing you, you were probably going to do so anyway. I must also ask you something that kills me to do but I know I have to, I ask you to let your son go. Let him make up his own mind. I know you'd rather keep him safe with you and Jonathan on the farm. I wish you could all live there happily ever after but unfortunately our children must fulfil their destiny in order to get their happily ever after.

Your sister, Lois.

Kent Farm, guestroom,
Chloe groaned as she woke up and felt her headache.

"Chloe? you ok?" someone asked.

Chloe blinked getting her vision focussed "I'm fine, Clark? Am I still dreaming?" Chloe said groggily.

Clark smiled "If you are I am too" he answered. "I missed you so much. I'm sorry I didn't come for you. but I really didn't want to risk my life to safe yours. I mean why would I? you're not my type, plus I'd be risking my life to restore you small kingdom while If could have yours and so much more when I get Lana"

"What?" Chloe asked feeling like someone had just ripped her beating hard out of her chest and stomped on it.

"Oh come on, did you really expect me to go after you? Look at yourself." Clark said.

"Clark why are you saying all of this?" Chloe asked tears threatening to start flowing down her cheeks.

"Clark why are you saying all of this?" Clark repeated in a whiny voice. "Let's just get this over with huh Lana" Clark said and Lana stepped into Chloe's view.

"You shouldn't have disobeyed daddy" She said smiling creepily at Chloe.

"stay away from me!" Chloe said when Clark took a step closer to her. "You're not Clark."

"I'm not, really?" he asked in a voice that said she was crazy as he took another step towards her.

"I mean it, don't come any closer" Chloe said in a tiny yet brave voice.

"What are you going to do if I am? You're just a weak ugly little bitch" his hands grabbed her throat and he began to choke her, Chloe tried to break his grip but he was too strong, she could hear a laughter ringing in her ears.

Chloe suddenly bolted upright on the bed her hands going to her throat. Clark, who was sitting in a chair, jumped backwards while sitting in the chair still and tumbled backwards unto the ground.

Chloe still looking around for where Clark and Lana had been moment before was looking around bewildered. Her eyes then fell on Clark. She looked at him a bit frightened.

Clark already up again asked, "Chloe?" but as he took a step towards her she flinched backwards, her back now against the wall the head of the bed was standing.

Martha and Jonathan came into the room because of the noise they heard.

"Clark what in the world is going on?" Martha asked him.

"I don't know" Clark stuttered over the words a bit, he wanted to help Chloe but afraid she might freak out if he got closer to her. "Chloe you're safe" he tried to convince her.

"Clark" Chloe said cautious then added "is it really you?"

"It's me, you were having a bad dream" Clark said calmly.

Suddenly Chloe lunged at him throwing his arms around him and let her emotions run free.

Surprised by the sudden change Clark stumbled back a step before regaining his balance and put his arms around her and held her.

Jonathan and Martha looked at them then quietly sneaked out of the room.

"What are we going to do Jonathan?" Martha asked her husband.

Jonathan put his arms around her holding her close to him "I don't know, but we'll figure it out. it's not as if we have to decide these things overnight."
