So I apologize if there are any errors in the writing etc. But here's goes nothing... zzzzzzzz...What huh? Ok I'm awake I SWEAR. P.S. This is a very short chapter. But I liked where it ended. Plus I need a nap. R&R please!

Chloe awoke slowly. To her surprise she wasn't restrained. She was just laying there on the cold, hard concrete floor. Gathering her strength she pulled herself upright and stood. She was in immense pain and it would take every bit of adrenaline she had in her to overcome it and get out. On the outside it appeared she was home free. No one was around, the door to the room was open and she wasn't restrained. But her gut told her it wouldn't be quite so easy.

She cautiously strode towards the door. After peeking out and seeing no one, she decided to see where she could wander. She began a stealthy walk through the building where she was. Problem being she did not know exactly what type of building it was, or why she was there. Lex must have had something to do with it but what. There was a bared window high up in one of the rooms and she could see it was getting dark. So not good.

Clark knew he could x-ray the building and find Chloe in seconds. He did so and saw her a couple levels up and creeping around slowly. He grinned to himself. He now knew where she was but he was going to play a little first.

Chloe was getting nervous. She had found her way to a stairwell but the light was leaving at a rapid pace. She needed to know where Clark was and what Lex was planning. Once at the bottom of the stairs she sat. Her wounds were burning and she needed a little rest.

Clark had other ideas.

As she sat, her eyes began to drift but she snapped back as a loud "whoosh" noise sounded behind her.

"Hello? Is anyone there? Lex? What did you do to Clark?"

No reply.

Then there was a large crash from her other side and she didn't want to find out what was going on. She turned and ran back up the stair well, her pain momentarily forgotten. The whoosh noise seemed to keep changing positions and she kept having to duck into knew passage ways and rooms. They seemed endless and she was instantly reminded of "The Shining". She just needed to find the Jack Torrence.

Hearing it again, she swore she saw a blur of something. "But a blur of what?" She thought to herself. She wasn't aware of how Clark's powers worked yet, having only found out about them, and was oblivious that the whirl and noise came from him, running full speed around her.

She ducked into a final room and looked behind as she heard it very close now. Then she ran straight into something. She hit the floor hard and lost focus momentarily. After her vision reset itself she peered into what she had ran into. What she saw made her scream.
