Chapter 9
Next morning, Kent Farm,
Clark awoke tired, he hadn't slept much after his dream about Chloe or Lana, or whatever the hell it was. He spent most of the night wondering what he would have said to Lana. He still didn't know how he felt about Chloe and Lana. He was attracted to Lana like he hadn't been to anyone else, but Chloe she was his best friend, he cared a lot about her and wanted more but didn't know if that more was just lust or something more. he didn't want to ruin their friendship.

"Earth to Clark" a voice said pulling him out of his thoughts "You don't look so hot this morning. Did you miss my goodnight kiss or something?" Chloe asked him.

"Chloe" Clark said as she was done talking. "Good morning" he then added.

"Morning sleepyhead, now get up your father wanted me to come and get you out of bed so you can do your chores before you went to Lex's." Chloe said to him.

"I can't remember, are you always this active in the morning?" Clark asked her as he got up.

"Only when I have something to look forwards to in the day, this morning it is to see you do sweaty farm work while I sit back and study from my magic book with your mom." Chloe replied.

Clark smiled his Kent charm smile "really, and what do you intent to do afterwards?"

"Why do you ask Mr. Kent?" Chloe asked him.

"Cos I'm going to Lex's afterwards and I don't think you'd want to go with me because Lana is there and it could lead to some kind of disturbance if she saw you." Clark replied.

"Yeah, I know" Chloe said. "Don't worry about me Clark, I was going to help your mom on the farm. and if I have some time study some more."

Clark smiled "well have fun then"

"I will when you finally get your ass down for breakfast so you can start your chores and I get to watch you work." and with a wink at Clark that made him blush Chloe left his room.

----

Later that day when Clark was done with his chores, which Chloe had watched him do while whistling at him as he was working hard, Clark had gone off to Lex's and Chloe brought the magic book to Martha as the both sat in a chair at the kitchen table. Chloe had told Martha about the second letter hidden in the book and that would only appear when she and Martha would touch it.

"here goes" Chloe said placing her hand on the cover of the book, Martha carefully placed her hand next to Chloe's. the book glowed and they withdrew their hands as it opened and writing of the second letter began to form in the book.

"Dear Chloe and Martha,
I both hoped and feared this moment would come, I'm glad that you two found each other because there is no one that is still alive that I love more then the two of you. 5 people have only made it into my heart, that you Chloe, your father, Martha and Jonathan and of course young Clark, who is now not so young anymore. But these letters haven't been left in this book to express my feelings so I'm going to tell you what you need to know. I've foreseen all of your deaths and have only come up with one answer to the solution. Chloe you must learn from Martha as much as you can about your abilities. Martha you must let the children go out on their own and meet up with them by the old border of Avalon and Langkindom. Because the king never could quite control Avalon he has put a perimeter around it. Which especially now that you're free, well guarded. You should take the secret passageway inside. Once inside Chloe must get to the castle's basement and take the test. I know what you think Martha it is dangerous, I almost didn't make it and my visions won't let me see the outcome. but I know it's the only way. When she passes the test she should be recognized as rightful ruler of Avalon and their princess. My will is hidden in our secret place Martha. It should say that I leave the kingdom to you until Chloe is ready for it. I tell you this because something will happen but you must tell Clark not to give up hope. Oh and beware of the Langs, Chloe. You can't trust them. Now go what you were going to do. check up on Clark.

Yours truly,
Lois Sullivan, Queen of Avalon."

Chloe had read the letter out loud and when she was finished she looked at Martha. "I need to go" she said quickly running out the door, afraid Clark might be in danger with Lana.

----

Luthorkingdom, Luthor castle,
Clark knocked on the door that led to Lex's chamber, as the previous time there were two guards standing beside him. keeping an eye on him.

"Enter" Lex's voice said and Clark opened the door walking in.

"Clark" Lex said greeting his friend and looked around "Chloe not with you?" he asked him.

"No, she and my mom were going to do some women stuff." Clark said.

"About last night, sorry I interrupted you two. I didn't know you'd be there with a girl." Lex said and smirked and added "And di you two still had a chance to kiss?" he asked Clark.

Clark sighted "no" he then thought for a second before saying "I had the weirdest dream though, I dream Chloe came into my room to get her goodnight kiss. and then we were...making out" he said a bit uncomfortable "And suddenly I'm not kissing Chloe anymore but Lana."

Lex studied him then said "Well it seems to me like you like two woman and you can't chose between them. I spoke with Lana after you left and she seemed to like you in fact she was the one who asked me to go see if you were alright and invite you back over for today." Lex paused then continued "in order to choose between them you should think about which woman you can live without. And which one you can't."

Clark was about tom comment on that when Lana stepped into Lex's chamber. Whitney wasn't with her and she smiled at Clark. "welcome back Clark" she said in a sweet voice. The ring Lana was wearing glowed for a second as Lana summoned her pheromones and sent them at Clark.

"Let's take a walk, it's such nice weather outside" Lana said and Clark nodded and gulped as the attraction he had felt with Lana before was back in full mode.

----

Luthorkingdom, courtyard,

Chloe was just outside the castle when she realized she didn't know how to get in. they certainly wouldn't just let her in. As she walked through the woods outside the castle she thought hard.
´If I could only get on the wall. but how...I know how I learned the spell this morning. excited she focussed on the wall. closing her eyes she imagined being on the wall. suddenly she felt light-headed and when she opened her eyes again she was on top of the wall. "whoa, it worked." she whispered to herself. she looked at the view of the courtyard and saw Lana, Lex and Clark walk. "What is she up to?" she asked herself softly.

"Where is prince Whitney?" Clark asked Lana.

"He's out hunting" Lana replied smiling at him. "Lex could you give Clark and me a minute?" she asked and Lex looked at Clark and then smiled walking back into the castle shaking his head. For a shy guy Clark Kent sure knew how to win girls hearts.

"finally alone" Lana said as she pulled Clark close against her as she looked up at him seductively, her ring glowing bright as she sent her pheromones at him in full force.

----

From above Chloe looked as Lana and Clark were kissing. tears forming in her eyes and then when her anger and resentment towards Lana began to rise she felt something, something weird about Lana. Lana's hand, there was an magic essence on her hand. but only her hand. Chloe had no idea how she knew this but she just knew. ´I need to get that ring she thought to herself. she looked again and noticed Clark and Lana weren't kissing anymore but talking. she couldn't understand what they were saying but when Lana leaned forwards again Chloe closed her eye not wanting to see it just then the anger inside her rose again and when she opened her eyes they were green and as Lana was about to kiss Clark again she touched a green force field standing between them which sent her flying backwards.

Lana's ring went into the air and pointed at the still existing force field, the magic inside the ring attracted by the magic of the force field. the ring glowed bright pink. green orbs glowed around the ring and it threatened to disappear but Lana fast recovered grabbed the ring from the air and looked around bewildered to see who was doing this. all she saw were green orbs on the place Chloe Sullivan had been moments before.
