Chapter 2

Oliver returned from Gotham City and was meeting up with Clark at Watchtower after he just saved a bus crash in Metropolis.

"Oliver what did you find out?"

"Unfortunately nothing much. All I found out was that he dresses up like a bat and has a heavy duty car. I crossed paths with him when I followed a scene of a crime. He knew I was Green Arrow. Told me to call him Batman. I asked him to join us. He fled the scene when Gotham's finest showed up. That was the last I saw of him."

"Well we know him as Batman, that's a start I guess." Clark looked disappointed at the lack of info.

"He knows he can trust us Clark. Something tells me we'll he from him again. We have bigger problems to worry about close to home."

"What is it?"

"It's Lex, Clark. He's been working on a secret Luthorcorp project and it involves meteor rock bombs. I'm worried he might target Superman with those bombs." He gestured towards Clark.

"I can handle Lex. I'll look into it."

"Clark what if he finds out your identity? He could target Lois and Chris for that matter. I know Lex and he wouldn't be making a weapon for Superman if he knew you would dodge it."

"That's not gonna happen. I won't let anything happen to Lois and the baby. I'll see what I can find from Luthorcorp and hopefully destroy the project before it's finished."

"Just be careful Clark."

"I always am Oliver."

Clark entered Luthorcorp, trying to find out anything he can about the new project. He was at a dead end. It was until he stumbled into Lex. Clark was in his Superman costume so Lex didn't recognize him. "Well well." Lex started walking towards him. "Who would've thought I would have the exclusive honour of having Superman voluntarily walk into my office, uninvited."

"What kind of project are you creating Lex?"

"Wish I knew what you were talking about."

"Kryptonite bombs. I know you're creating them. You need to stop this before it turns ugly."

"Well thanks for the warning but as you can see, I don't have any kryptonite bombs hiding in my pockets so tell your sources to check again. Last time I checked you need a warrant to come into my office and since you are neither in the police jurisdiction nor have a warrent for that matter, I'd say your work is done here. Get out of my office Kent." Clark narrowed his eyes at him and super sped away. Lex smirked to himself at the satisfaction of Superman's reckless mistake that was just made. He went to his desk and picked up his phone to make a call, when the line answered he simply said, "Perform the launch."

Clark was flying across Metropolis, using his super hearing to listen to any trouble happening. He couldn't get the encounter with Lex out of his head. Something didn't feel right but he couldn't make it out. He kept thinking about the conversation, wondering if Lex was trying to hide a message in it. Nothing happened though. Nothing unusual, he simply said Get out of my office- Wait! No it can't be! He didn't just say that. He said, Get out of my office KENT. Clark was still dressed as Superman when he spoke to Lex, and he called him Kent. He knows he's Clark. He knows who he is. "LOIS!" He flew as fast as he could back to Smallville as the sun was about to set.
