Chapter 6: resistance
Smallville General Hospital: Clark stared at the young woman in the hospital bed that was the spitting image of his half-sister Trinity Jean Knight. The doctors that were examining her had been sent there at the request of Lex Luthor, who was trying to make amends to Clark for investigating him. Clark heard Michael Knight walk up to him.
"What's the word?" Michael asked. Clark just shook his head. "I'm not sure, Mr. Knight. I've been to The Mirror Universe once, but I don't know how they deal with failure like we do here," Clark said. Michael nodded.
"KITT and I went there too. Shortly before the alternate Smallville High appeared here KITT and I were testing a new Super Pursuit Mode feature in the Knight 2000 and we ended up being in a reality that was similar to our own but the morals were reversed. We had used the same technique to get back 4 days later, and had informed Shaun McCormick, Executive Director who had informed the FBI who immediately classified the events in the Mirror Universe. Shortly thereafter, I saw the Mirror Universe duplicate of your school in a news feed from Metropolis all the way from LA. We need to find out who did this to Trinity," Michael said. They then heard Claire Bennett approach and saw with her a Japanese man.
"Any improvement?" Claire asked. Both men shook their heads.
"Guys I'd like you to meet Hiro Nakamura. He has the ability to bend time and space. He also recently discovered he could step into the time/space continuum. Maybe he can help us in finding Trinity," Claire said. Hiro bowed before them.
"It is kind to meet the world famous Clark Kent & Michael Knight. How can I be of service?" Hiro said.
"World famous?" Clark said as both Michael and Clark stared at this man's unique greeting.
"I have heard of your attempts to stop LuthorCorp all the way from Japan. My father's company got a DNA sample from a local LuthorCorp office and discovered your secret. Well, I want to offer my abilities to you in finding both your sister and wife," Hiro said.
"Your help would be appreciated, Hiro. But you must keep my secret no matter what?" Clark said.
"Not a problem, Clark. How do I keep your secret?" Hiro asked. Michael said, "By turning any information you have on Clark Kent to me and the Foundation as soon as possible." Michael said. Hiro nodded.
1989-Smallville high School-Trinity smiled at the caves that she had read about. She had heard of the caves from the crystal that Jor-El had left for the Kent's.
"This is incredible," She said. She had stared at the Kryptonian symbols. She finally realized her role as Clark Kent's destiny.
"What are you doing down here?" an Indian keeper asked. Trinity stared at him.
"Just looking around, that's all," Trinity said. The old man nodded.
"You are the Gatekeeper. I see it in your eyes, Miss. I've seen your face before, You're the daughter of Knight Industries," The old man said.
"What do you mean?" Trinity asked. "You are the one who is aid Naaman in his journey," the old man said.
"I am Trinity Jean Knight and you are the holder of this cave?" She said.
"It is said people from a distant star came and lived among our people. It is said that this Naaman would send an aid to help him when he reappears," the old man said. Trinity then stared at the image of the Meteor shower.
"I know. Kal-El, your Naaman, even now walks this planet as one of us." Trinity said.
"Do you know what the name Kal-El means?" the old man asked. Trinity shook her head.
"No, but he is my brother," Trinity said.
"Kal-El means Star child. You must discover his destiny and aid him in his destiny to find his enemy," the old man said.
"I will," She nodded.
"But you must eliminate the duplicate of you who even know roams this world," the old man said.
"I don't know what your talking about, old man," She said.
"There are a myriad of alternate realities similar to our own. It is also said that the gatekeeper would fight herself," the old man said.
"Where do I look?" Trinity said, "I'm only 16 years old, and my powers have been revealing themselves since I was 4," She continued.
"First you must look inside yourself," The old man said. She then stared at the caves and then saw her birthmark. The octagonal shape with a stylized S in the center of it.
"Kal-El," She said. She then turned to where the old man was but he was gone.
"I must find this alternate reality me and stop her," Trinity vowed. She then saw the ghostly image of her father, Jor-El and standing next to it, the ghostly image of Wilton Knight.
"Our daughter, you must find this dark mirror of yourself and defeat her for both the legacy of Krypton and the Knight family line." Jor-El said. She then heard Wilton speak.
"To Jor-El you must listen to. For you have to find this woman and defeat her, for both the planet Earth & Krypton. You must find her, Trinity or the destiny you have will never come to past. I will point you to the Foundation's lead operative, Michael Arthur Knight," the ghostly image of Wilton Knight said. She nodded.
"I will not fail you," Trinity said clenching her fist.
