Chapter 5: The Visitation
Smallville, Kansas-1989-Jonathan Kent and his wife Martha Kent stared at the 3-year-old child they had found. They had struck a deal with Lionel Luthor to create a fake adoption for Clark. They couldn't very well tell people where Clark as they called Kal-El was from. They had received a mysterious crystal, with an embedded message for them with a holographic image of a man and a woman from some far distant planet called Krypton. They had just told local sheriff Ethan about the adoption and now they were faced with a child.
"What now, Martha?" Jonathan Kent said as he knelt down to stare at the child who they estimated was 3 years old but was tall, dark haired.
"This is the child we dreamed about, we prayed about Jonathan for years since we discovered we couldn't have children," Martha said. Jonathan smiled. He remembered the earlier events of the day. They left Nell's flower shop and were on their way home, when they saw a meteor slide down the road from one farm to another farm. Their truck had slid on that icy road and had turned over and the child had discovered them.
"Martha we can't keep him, at least not until Mr. Luthor comes through," Jonathan Kent said. They then heard a knock on their screen door.
"Hello?" said the teenage voice. Jonathan and Martha turned around to see Trinity Jean Knight standing there with her backpack. It had taken a couple days to get to Smallville after she had borrowed $300 from her new friend Hannah Melvin to fly to Metropolis.
"Who are you?" Jonathan asked as Martha hid Clark behind her.
"My name is Linda Masters, and I was guided here to meet you and your son," 'Linda Masters' said.
"Jonathan & Martha Kent. This is our son Clark Kent," Jonathan said. Trinity stared at Clark.
"We found this. Can you explain it," Jonathan said pointing to the crystal.
"Where did you get it?" Trinity said as she set down her backpack on the couch.
"At Miller's Gorge near where we found our son. We uh found him and a ship," Martha said. Trinity stared at the Crystal. She touched it and it flared green then yellow.
"Trinity Jean Knight, welcome to your destiny. I am Jor-El, your father. You are a hybrid of two different planets, the planet Krypton and the planet Earth. You were sent into the past with no memory of who you are. This crystal was sent with my only begotten son, Kal-El of Krypton sent to Earth to be a beacon of light. Your destiny is to aid him in his own destiny. You were granted powers beyond those of the humans that live there, to show the way. I know of your acceptance of the Savior of the Universe. You must use your powers for the greater good of humanity. You will re-meet Kal-El later in life. This memory will resurface when you meet Kal-El again. It has been an honor to watch over both of you, my children. To see you grow up to become the young woman you are now, and soon to see Kal-El become the man he is destined to be. Be safe my daughter and May the God of Isaac Jacob and Esau protect you," the holographic image of Jor-El said. Trinity then closed her eyes as her memories of Wilton Knight, the brutal rape by Garth Knight, the hiding of her by Elizabeth from Wilton, The eventual discovery in 1981, the creation of The Knight Automated Roving Robot, The miss programming of that prototype by a technician sent by LuthorCorp, the discovery of the near fatal shooting of Michael Arthur Long, her helping Devon Miles bring the young cop in. Her witnessing the genetic reconstruction of Michael Long into a near duplicate of Garth Knight. The creation of The Knight Industries Two Thousand had been fresh on her mind, as if it happened yesterday, Her being sent by Elizabeth to stay with relatives as she moved out of Wilton's estate to another mansion on LA's East side. Trinity being sent to Smallville High School, Then being sent to Cary-Grove Community High School in 1988. Her memories stopped. She then had another flash of memory. That flash of memory was a blueprint of The Knight Automated Roving Robot exactly as she remembered them in 1981.
"What do I do now?" Trinity said standing up.
"Where are you enrolled at for High School?" Martha asked.
"Cary-Grove High School in Suburban Chicago, Illinois I will transfer here to Smallville high to keep a closer eye on Clark," She said.
"Where would you stay?" Jonathan asked.
"Wilton Knight, my adopted father has a summer home in Metropolis not far from here. I could have it shipped stone by stone here to Smallville so I could complete my education," Trinity said.
"What kind of powers do you have, Trinity?" Martha asked.
"Super speed, near invulnerability to anything, high resistance to heat and cold, and heat vision and super hearing and flight as far as I know," Trinity said.
"You could stay on hand as a farm hand to help keep an eye on Clark," Jonathan offered.
"I think I will," She said.
