A/N A quick little ficlet for something about season 11 that bugs the crap out of me and was the first step to killing my interest in it. So obvious season 11 Spoilers ahead BIG spoilers ahead
Clark came home feeling particularly hollow. He's not sure if he might count this as a win or loss, either way tonight was horrible. Sure, they stopped the age sucking but not without a price. The explosion also set Clark free from Lex's game but he never wanted this to be the price. Bart is gone taking the Dark Flash with him. Why couldn't it just be some maniac in yellow and red, like the phantom to Clark?
He opened the door and heard Lois on the phone with Emil.
"So you can do that?" Lois asked with a smile. "That's great. Thanks Emil."
"What's great?" Clark asked.
Lois almost dropped the phone but turned in a smile to see Clark, Clark Kent in his suit and glasses. "Clark!"
Lois ran up and hugged him with a smile. "Welcome back."
Clark just kissed her for a long while wanting to do that for weeks now. "It's good to be back and out of the suit."
"Oh yeah, put the suit back on." Lois ordered to Clark's confusion.
Clark was fully dressed as Superman as he listened to Lois not really believing what he's hearing. "I can't believe it."
"Well, you know the Luthors; if there's a line to anything they'll cross it." Lois replied.
Clark looked at Lois and smiled having his own idea. That doesn't involve making Skynet. "I like your idea, but how about we just do this."
Oliver looked at Lois and Clark. "Are you two serious?"
Lois looked at him kind of shocked. "Ollie I couldn't make this up on my best day. If I could, I'd be a science fiction writer not a journalist."
Oliver turned to his room and saw Chloe sleeping. "Guys, I really want to be a part of this, but if Lex sees me, he'll go right for Chloe, and I can't let that happen."
"We don't need him to see you; we just need you to shoot him." Lois offered.
"I'm in." Oliver replied. He probably would have done it anyway because he'd want to, and Chloe would give him hell for not helping with this.
Lex threw his phone across the room in fury trying to schedule another appointment with the memory device; he knows when to get to the door in time. Lex comes to a stop and looked around his room. He doesn't know how but he feels like something is wrong, it's like how he feels that Superman is evil. He turns and speaking of Superman he finds the man of steel behind him. Lex looked at the alien but remained stoic not giving an inch. "Is there something I can help you with?"
"I thought you'd like to know the radiation doesn't work on me anymore." Superman replied greeting him.
Lex quickly took out his tablet and saw he wasn't lying. "So, it seems." He looked at super hero. "Is there an actual good reason for you to darken my door at this hour?"
Clark glared at what was once his best friend but as they both said a couple weeks back, they're different people now. "When Apokalips was falling to earth, you took something from us, something precious."
"In case you haven't read a newspaper recently, with the exception of the past six months, the thirty plus years of my life before that are a blur to me." Lex replied.
Clark looked at him, lies better then ever. "I know, but now you do to, you know what you have and we're here to take her back."
Lex's eyes could only widen as an arrow was shot into his back as he shouted in pain. That wasn't an ordinary bullet. He shouted in pain when to his surprise he could feel something rising up inside of him as he's pulled in two. He sees his own sister rise up from inside him and shout.
"Superman!"
Clark quickly took her arm and pulled her free.
Tess looked at herself and blushed as she tried to cover herself with both hands to her breasts.
Clark looked away. "Tess, you're not wearing any pants either."
Tess quickly replaced one hand with her arm and lowered the other one. "What the hell! Davis had pants on when we collected his body!"
Clark took a moment and looked away. He hopes Lois will believes that was insanity as he drapes his cape over her giving her some level of clothing. He doesn't think they'll ever understand how black kryptonite works sometimes clothes, sometimes shirtless, no naked. But a little embarrassment is much better then turning her into an AI like Lois wanted.
"Welcome back" Clark said with a smile.
Tess smiled and hugged him. "It's good to be back."
"Hey, hey, no hugging until Clark and Tess are in pants and or a skirt respectively." A voice shot over Clark's earpiece.
"Lois says hi."
Tess broke the hug and pulled the arrow out of her brother's shoulder to examine it. "Black kryptonite?" She watched Lex open his eyes and punched him in the face knocking him out cold.
Clark simply nodded. "Best way to separate conflicting minds in one body." Clark lifted her up and looked in her beautiful green eyes. "So are you ready to go."
Tess smiled not believing her friends came for her. "Take me home."
The two disappeared in a blur.
Author notes
Thanks for the reviews for last chapter
This was going to be a Clark/Tess full story but I cut it short.
I can't understand why they turned Tess into an AI. They went through all that work to turn her into a super computer and rob her of a body when everyone but Lois knew what Black kryptonite does. I'm assuming Clark was so upset about Bart he just didn't remember Black K or I missed something.
