A few weeks later Clark got called up to the fortress because Jor-El finally had some more information on the darkness that they would be fighting. Clark came by himself because he was able to relay the message to the others once he knew what Jor-El had.
"Kal-El, thank you for coming. I have more information on the darkness." Jor-El said.
"Ok. so, what do you have?" Clark asked.
"The darkness will have three vessels. One that will corrupt the mind, one that will corrupt your body, and one that will corrupt your soul. If you find the three vessels, you might be able to cut this off before it even really starts." Jor-El said.
"That will actually be helpful. Thank you, Jor-El. Is there anything else?" Clark asked.
"No, but you will need to be on the lookout for these vessels. If you let them do too much damage you will have to deal with their master himself. Darkseid." Jor-El said.
"We will keep a lookout. We know what to look for now. Thanks again for the help." Clark said.
"I am always here for you, my son." Jor-El said as Clark flew out of the fortress and back to the Daily Planet.
This would have to wait until tonight when all of the team had the chance to get together. Right now, he, Lois and Chloe needed to get to the press conference that was hosted by Gordon Godfrey, some up and comer who just hit the scene.
. . .
At the news conference, Clark and Lois couldn't believe the shit that this guy was saying. He was trying to turn everyone against the heroes of the world and it looked like what he was saying was working on the people who were there. He was also writing a book that would be available worldwide within the next couple of weeks. Clark thought to himself that this could possibly be the vessel that would corrupt people's minds.
"I don't have a good feeling about this. I think we need to call that meeting sooner than we thought. It is possible that we might need to stop this man." Clark said.
"I agree. I don't know what Jor-El told you, but it seems that whatever it was, that it might have something to do with this." Lois said.
"I think it does. I will text Kara and tell her to have the team meet at Oliver's after this conference is over." Clark said and the other two nodded, knowing that it was for the best that Clark got everything out in the open so that all of them knew what was going on.
. . .
The team met up after the press conference in Oliver's penthouse. Some of them weren't happy about being called to meet in the middle of the day, but he knew that once they found out what was going on, they would be happy that he had called the meeting.
"So, what was so important that we had to meet in the middle of the day, Clark?" Oliver asked.
"Jor-El gave me more information on the darkness this morning. There are three vessels for the darkness that are on earth. One that will corrupt the mind, One that will corrupt the soul, and one that will corrupt the body. I think we might have found one of them this morning." Clark said as he turned on a recording of the press conference from earlier and the others listened.
"So, you think this guy might be the one who is here to corrupt people's minds?" Lois asked.
"It sounds like it could be the person, but no I don't know that for sure." Clark said.
Clark used his super hearing on the recording to see if he could hear anything that might tell them if this was the guy or not and he was surprised at what he heard. It sounded like nothing he had ever heard before. He now knew for sure that this was one of the vessels now, and that they needed to stop him and be quick about it.
"I just listened to the recording with my super hearing. This is definitely the guy." Clark said and Lois and Kara did the same and then nodded that they agreed with Clark.
"Ok. I will work on tracking Godfrey down. I will let you know when I find him." Chloe said as she turned to the computer and got to work.
. . .
About ten minutes later Chloe found a lead on Godfrey. He looked to be at a sex club.
"I found him, but you are not going to like where he is." Chloe said.
"Where is he?" Kara asked.
"He is at a sex club." Chloe said.
"Ok. Since Lois, Kara and I seem to be pure of heart, the three of us will go and take care of this. I picked something up at the fortress when I was there that might help with this." Clark said as he pulled out a bottle of some sort.
"What is that bottle supposed to do?" Lois asked.
"It is the bottle that Brainiac and his family use to trap worlds. I think it might be able to take in the darkness as well." Clark said.
"It is worth a try." Kara said as the three of them changed into there suits and flew toward the sex club.
When they arrived they used their speed so that no one knew that they were there and they found Godfrey easily. He smiled when he saw them.
"I have been waiting for one of you to come after me. I am pleased that all of you have come. It is going to be good to take you over and use you against the world." Godfrey said.
"Good luck with that." Lois said and a dark cloud started to come out of Godfrey and form a circle around them, but never advanced.
Now was the time for their plan. Clark pulled out the bottle and opened it and the cloud was sucked inside just like he hoped it would be. He closed the bottle and put it away.
Godfrey woke up and looked around like he didn't know where he was. "What the hell is going on here and where the hell am I?" He asked.
"You are in a sex club in Metropolis. You were being controlled by a darkness. We took care of it. Now you can go back to living your life." Kara said.
"Thank you so much for helping me. How can I ever repay you?" Godfrey asked.
"You don't have to. This is what we do." Lois said and Godfrey got up and left the club.
"Well, that worked well. I hope we find the other two soon. It will be good if we can stop this before it gets too bad and the master shows up." Lois said.
"Yeah, we don't need that to happen. Let's go meet up with the others and tell them what happened." Clark said as they all flew out of the club and back to Oliver's to tell them everything that happened and then they all decided to call it a night.
