I hope you enjoy this, once Clark's power revelation is complete the main story line can begin to unfold so don't give up hope yet hehe

On with the story...

Chloe sat shocked; she couldn't actually believe that Clark had told them

Chloe sat shocked; she couldn't actually believe that Clark had told them. She watched each of the girls faces change from many expressions, feeling slightly jealous of them, wishing that she could be revealed to the extraordinary news of Clark's powers once again, her mind reeling back to the first time she witnessed his strength when he caught Alicia Bakers car. She had felt angry at first that he hadn't told her, but she soon realised that he only had her best interest at heart and couldn't risk her slipping up and revealing his secret to the wrong people.

Clark almost regretted his words as they left his mouth, maybe he should have eased them into it a bit more, maybe he shouldn't have told them at all, but it was too late now, the secret was out and all he could do now was wait to see their reaction and pray that it wasn't bad.

"An…alien?" Rikki questioned, her face giving away her confusion and slight apprehensiveness.

"You mean they really exist?" Cleo added, her face also scrunched up at the revelation of Clark's secret.

"Coming from a mermaid" Chloe replied, smiling towards her new friend, taking Clark's hand, knowing and sensing how nervous he must be, hoping to give him her strength and courage.

"I'm not from this planet; I was born on a planet called Krypton…" Clark started at the non-responsive look he was now receiving. When none of the girls spoke, he took that as his cue to continue, looking to Chloe for he felt as permission, feeling silly but none the less he felt that this was now as much to do with Chloe as it was him.

"When I was only a baby, my biological father discovered that our planet was doomed to die, when no one believed him, he took it upon himself to build a spaceship…for me, his only son" Clark had rehearsed this speech many time over in his mind, unsure as to how many times he would ever have to tell it. Yet it never made it any easier, he still felt guilt and anxieties each time he spoke these words, even with Chloe besides him and her love helping him forward, he felt drained thinking back to what his parents would have gone through.

"So this planet…Krypto or whatever, if it was dieing why didn't anyone else realise?" Emma asked, herself now intrigued to hear more.

"I wish I could answer that, but I don't know, I can't remember anything of my birth planet as I said I was only a baby…but my father did all he could to ensure I would survive, he and my mother, said their goodbyes and sent me here, to Earth"

"Do you remember anything of your parents…your real parents I mean?" Rikki questioned, feeling sorry for the man before her, wishing she could help him anyway she could.

"No not really, but I do know of my father and his spirit, his name was Jor-El, he left for me some Krptonian crystals with which I discovered my very own Fortress of Solitude, his spirit is imprinted in a way in the crystals and he can communicate with me as much of his knowledge as he built into it. But of my mother all I know is a name Lara" Clark solemnly stated, cherishing Chloe's grasp on his hand.

"I'm sorry, Lara huh…that's a beautiful name" Cleo responded to his courageous explanation of his entire personal family background.

"Thank you" Clark answered simply.

"So how come you don't look any different to us…if you're an alien shouldn't you be like…"

"Green with a big head and short legs" Clark interjected before Rikki could continue.

"Well yeah"

"I don't know but I am different, just it's on the inside, its similar to yourselves…I too have powers" Clark explained.

"Girls I know we can trust you because I know how you understand how important it is for you not to be exposed, the same goes for Clark, if anyone other than ourselves ever find out about his secret his life could be the price" Chloe shot in, feeling bad for doubting their trust, but felt she needed to clarify the position they were now putting them in.

"We understand Chloe, don't worry, you can trust us…both of you" Cleo assured, smiling from Chloe to Clark.

"So you said you have powers…do you mean like ours?" Emma asked awaiting a show much like she had presented, unprepared for what she would witness next.

"Something like that" Clark sheepishly answered, smiling cheekily, knowing that they would be more impressed than they were of their powers, after all they were soon to be a few of fewer people to know Superman's true identity.

Clark super sped to the exit of the living room "Over here" The three girls jumped at the sound of his voice and looked behind them their faces bemused.

"What the…how did you get there?" Rikki blurted out, saying what each of them was thinking.

"I ran" Clark said now standing back in front of them stood besides a broadly smiling Chloe, who couldn't suppress the chuckle that escaped her at the sight of the girls shock. "I'm a fast runner, super fast actually"

"Well that explains what I saw" Cleo chimed, still trying to distinguish this new information from her own secret.

"You saw me use my powers?" Clark asked, feeling nervous all of a sudden, who knows who she may have told unknowingly.

"Well yer…but don't worry I didn't tell anyone, except these two but that don't count right?" Cleo proclaimed innocently.

"It's fine Cleo really, as long as you don't tell anyone" Chloe reassured, her feeling better as she recovered her permanent smile.

"Is that it?" Rikki asked feeling slightly disappointed.

"You haven't seen anything yet" Chloe said happily, feeling ecstatic that she was lucky enough to have such as powerful man fall in love with her.

At the cue of Chloe's words, Clark walked towards the sofa the girls were comfortably sat on and placed his hand under the bottom ledge, looking to the girls; he smiled and lifted the entire sofa high above his head effortlessly.

"Whoa…how the hell…"

"Ok feeling queasy now" Cleo whined, her fear of heights getting the better of her.

Clark slowly lowered the sofa and placed it gracefully back onto the ground.

"I'm strong too…I can lift just about anything" Clark boasted, yet his still felt strange putting his powers once again on show, hating all of the attention pointed to him.

"No wonder he's got such a great body" Rikki whispered to Cleo, impressed at his super strength.

"I heard that" Clark said feeling his face turn many shades of red. "Super hearing too" Clark added guiltily, watching Rikki squirm with embarrassment.

"Well you are just full of surprises aren't you" Cleo commented, laughing at Rikki's reaction.

"He certainly is" Chloe answered, placing her arm around his waist, smiling up at him adoringly.

"Is there anything else, coz I gotta say I am already majorly impressed" Emma asked, noting the feel of familiarity in the back of her mind, thinking how all of this sounds awfully familiar, she just couldn't put her finger on it.

"Actually there is more, I also have heat vision, X-ray vision, super breath and…"

"Wait what's heat vision?" Cleo queried.

Clark suddenly felt Chloe's hand slip from his back and towards his pants; he jumped at her next move, feeling his eyes burn with desire, blinking quickly he pulled his stare towards the nearest waste basket and within seconds the basket set alight, the girls jumping from the sofa and moving swiftly away from the flaming item.

"You did that?" Rikki shouted, as she tried to configure this new information. Within moments she saw Clark take a deep breath and blow the flames out, leaving the bin covered in a oat of ice.

"Chloe!" Clark sternly whispered down to his now wickedly smiling girlfriend.

"What I was only lending a helping hand" Chloe purred out, squeezing Clark's butt, making him jump and pull her hand away nervously, before he felt the urge to set the whole house on fire. Luckily, he didn't think the girls had noticed and made the connection between his recent flame starting and Chloe's actions.

"It's like you have all of our powers rolled into one, we thought we were special but we don't even compare next to you Clark" Emma proclaimed, Clark looking even more attractive not only to her but to Rikki and Cleo too…What a guy they all thought unknowingly together.

"I guess you're right…but I don't want my inherited powers to make you lot feel any less insecure, you are the lucky ones you have been given this gift for a reason, I had it forced upon me at birth, well only here anyway, it is the Earth's yellow sun that infuses me with my power, not like the red sun of my home planet" Clark explained, feeling slightly more at ease now with the revelation of his powers.

"This is way too much for me to take in…your life is so complicated, I don't know how you cope"

"Challengingly, but we have learnt to survive through anything life throws at us and that's a fair share of troubles" Clark answered truthfully, feeling Chloe's grip around his tighten, he figured at the memory of the many things they have had to overcome together both now and in the past.

"I can imagine…now…you can't tell us that you have any more powers because that would just be greedy" Rikki joked referring her glare towards Clark.

"Well, just one more" Clark placed his hand securely on Chloe's hip and began his ascent upwards, floating mid air, about 3ft off of the ground, Chloe snuggling herself into Clarks embrace, no matter how many times he takes her flying she never got over the thrill of actually being suspended off the ground.

"I can fly" Clark responded to three different pitched gasps.

Well...What did you think?
