Vicki was able to grab one of his wings before he could sprint..

"Aw man.." was all Clark could manage.

"Now that I have you, you are required to bind to me until I release you, correct?" Vicki waited to see if he would agree before she let go of his wings, he had to do whatever she said until she told him "you are released from my service"..

"Yes, I am yours until you say." he said with resignation.

She let go of him and then went to help Coreen.

"What..why..." she was still confused, but quickly regained compsure.

"Allright mister! You lied!!" she said starting toward him, Vicki was afraid she was going to slap him so she held Coreen around the waist.

Mike wanted to say, "This is unbelievable," but he knew it wasn't.

"Whoa, tiger, let him explain. I think I know what's going on but give him a chance." Coreen agreed so Vicki let go.

Coreen circled Clark or whatever his name really was, and got a good look at him now. His dark hair was completely on end, as if he had spiked it with gel, his eyes were now a lavender color, his true color, his skin glowed and his wings were like small transluscent butterfly wings almost. They were rather pretty.

"Please don't say they are pretty, " Clark moaned. Coreen stopped dead in her tracks.

"Can you hear my thoughts?" she said in hushed voice.

"NO, but that's what every other girl has said, before she ran away laughing." His head was down, he was so pitiful looking that Vicki felt sorry for him-for a minute- then went right back to business.

"Look, I don't care why you lied.." he stopped her..

"I didn't lie, no one asked, "Excuse me are you a member of the Fae?" so technically, that's not lying. I'm trying to lead a normal life."

Oh, he had issues.

"Okay, so you left out details, we'll go with that. But I felt, feel your magic. That's how I knew so what I need to know is, did a member of the Fae take the Kate and the baby?" she asked. Legend had that Fairies were known for snatching babies, to raise with their own babies.

Clark shook his head, "No, we don't believe in that anymore. We try very hard to live a normal existence among the people. We marry, have our own kids. We protect those in need if necessary, but try not to draw attention. Some have even gone as far as to have their wings removed." at that last statement he shuddered and his wings folded back in.

Coreen went over and put her hand on his face, "How sad that you feel you must change to fit in."

He smiled at her, he really was a pretty young man, such delicate features, "Thanks, that's why I like you so much. I can tell you don't care about what people think..You still like me don't you?" he looked like a lost puppy..

"Are you KIDDING?? Yeah!! AS IF!" she said and planted a kiss on his lips, bringing a blush to his cheeks.

"Okay, lovey-dovey later, problem at hand. Who do you think might have done this then? Can you feel the residual that's been here?" Vicki asked seriously.

Clark suddenly too became serious, his appearance changed so slightly that you might not have noticed had you not been looking at him, he appeared more manly, "Yes, I feel it."

He asked to walk through the house and when he went into M.J.'s room, he was full on Fairy again.

"It's been here. It was angry..it want's the baby's life force."

"Why?" Vicki asked.

Clark turned to Mike, " A vampire has fed from you.." it was a statement not a question, "the mother is a witch so therefore, the child has powerful blood in his veins. It could be used in a ritual of some sort.."

Mike was pissed...

The trio decided that is was getting late, they had worked well into the afternoon, eating Chinese at Vicki's office.

Clark had been a huge help. He even told them his real name: Capernicus Aloitious.

They all stared at him, "See, that's why I chose Clark Kent. So, will you still call me superman?" he grinned at them, causing a huge round of laughter. He explained to them that he had taken that name to sound "tough" because the general consensus was that "fairy men" were not tough.

So far, they had that Kate was taken, along with M.J. by some "being" yet to be determined, that wanted the child's blood.

"Well, at least it's something." Vicki sighed.

Clark stood to go, Coreen was going with him. Coreen had plans of her own.

"There is one thing I need to mention. Sometimes, we have fairies go what we call "dementotia" or demented as you may better acquainted with. When this happens, they must be sought out and destroyed. If this is what has happened, then it is seeking the baby for a sacrifice to become more powerful, to try and destroy their fae clan. I promise, this will not happen."

This bit of news did not help Mike any. Vicki told him to go home, take a Xanax and try to get some sleep. He was exhausted, so he agreed.

After they left, Vicki's cell phone rang, playing My Love by Lionel Richie, Henry had programmed it in.

"Hey hot daddy how are my babies? Sleeping!?" Vicki missed them terribly, so she was frowning at this revelation, this was her first full day without them and she couldn't wait to get home. She knew it would only be a few hours and they would be awake again..

"What IS today?" She repeated to him, "Ohhh, that's right, six weeks...gee, I almost forgot.." Liar..she was already in her car, yes her car, because she could drive again..and she deifintely remembered what today was...
