Disclaimer: I do not own Smallville. If I did…well lets just say that I would make a certain farm boy smarter and a certain pink princess would meet with a very nasty accident preferably with a John Deer tractor.

Okay I know some of you thought that I had given up on this story but I haven't. Every story I put up on this site always gets completed. Sometimes it takes me over a year, but I always finish. The reason it has taken me so long to update is simple. The holiday season. My entire family was in town, I had to deal with my psycho future mother-in-law, oh and there was that incident with my goody-goody cousin Anna getting busted for DUI. So can you see why I haven't updated? Okay I am done with my excuses. I'm sorry puppy dog eyes it wont take me so long to update next time.
Thank you to my lovely reviewers: Dani, Pale0Spaz101, LorGilFan, planetcal, and svaddict.

Chapter Three

Lex arrived at the castle and called to his trusty butler Giles. The impeccably dressed man arrived next to the car.

"Yes sir?"

"Go and prepare the room next to mine. We have a visitor." Lex said going over and opening the passenger side door of his car.

"Are you sure you don't want me to prepare a room in the south wing sir? I know how you like your privacy."

Lex glared at the man. "If I wanted you to prepare a room in the south wing I would have told you to prepare a room in the south wing now wouldn't I?"

"Yes sir I apologize." Giles nodded.

"Good now go and prepare the room next to mine." Lex ordered.

Giles hurried into the house.

Lex leaned down and picked Chloe up in his arms. She was awake but it was almost as if she wasn't there. Her eyes were blank and unfocused and she was dead wait in Lex's arms. Lex carried her into the castle and than into the study. He gently laid her down on the sofa and covered her up with the throw from off the back.

"Chloe? Can you please talk to me?" Lex asked squatting down next to the sofa.

Chloe just continued to look off into space.

"You're safe here. You can talk to me." Still nothing.

Lex sighed. "Alright you just close your eyes and try to rest. I am going to make a phone call." On impulse he leaned down and placed a soft kiss on her forehead.

Lex quietly stepped into the hallway and pulled out his cell phone. He hit a number on his speed dial. The person on the other end picked up after only one ring.

"Luther."

"Dad, it's me."

"Son how's Miss Sullivan?

"Catatonic. I can't get her to talk…or even blink."

"I am having a doctor sent over to check her over."

"I thought you were coming back here." Lex frowned.

"I am Lex. I am going to pay a visit to Gabe. Hopefully bring him back with me."

"Do you think he will believe Chloe was raped?"

"I would hope so. But you never know with the people in this town."

"If he doesn't what are our options when it comes to Chloe?"

"We can petition a judge to grant one of us custody of Miss Sullivan until her 18th birthday."

Lex snorted, "You mean bribe a judge?"

"Bribe petition. Same thing. I thought I taught you that."

Lex shook his head. "Yeah not sure that listen stuck."

"You go see to Miss Sullivan. I will be there when I can."

"Alright." Lex snapped his phone shut.

As he was about to head back into the study Clark and Lana came walking up the hallway.

"Hey Lex" Lana greeted in own overly perky way. Lex was starting to wonder if she was dipping into the product at the Talon.

"Hello Lana. Clark. What brings you two here this afternoon?" Lex didn't even try to put on a smile.

"We were driving by and thought we would stop and say hello. Is something wrong Lex?" Clark asked in concern.

"Chloe's here…" Lex began but Lana cut in.

"Well that explains his mood." She giggled.

Lex wasn't going to touch that insult with 30-foot poll. If he did he had a suspicion that he would rip the perky cheerleaders head off.

"As I was saying Chloe's here. Someone hurt her."

Clark's eyes bugged out. "Who? How?"

Lex sighed. "I'm not sure. She won't talk to anyone. And I am not a liberty to tell you how at the moment. When Chloe's ready I am sure she will tell you. A doctor is on the way and my father has gone to fetch her dad."

"Can I go and see her?" Clark asked

"Sure just be gentle. She's a little fragile at the moment."

"Of course." Clark nodded.

Lana rolled her eyes "I'm going to go wait in the truck." And with that she headed on her merry way.

This time it was Lex's turn to roll his eyes. God forbid that Lana Lang NOT be the center of attention for once.

"Come on Clark she's in the study."

The two men made their way into the study. The moment Chloe laid eyes on Clark she started screaming and threw herself into Lex's arms.

"What's wrong with her?" Clark panicked.

"I don't know. Maybe you better leave." Lex advised but his eyes gave away a distrust that Clark had never seen there before.

Clark hurried out the door and Lex helped Chloe back to the sofa. She was again in a catatonic state.

Lex ran a hand along her cheek. "My God Clark did this to you didn't he Chloe?

For the first time Chloe moved. She turned her head away in shame.

HaHa Cliffy. I love those! lol If you think I was being too hard on Lana…I was. I just rented season one of the show and after re-watching the episodes it confirmed my hate for the pink princess. Please review and tell me what you think.
