AN: 2 months later from previous chapter. Paige has told Clark, Chloe, Pete, and her parents about what happened to her, and about another witch who had saved her. It is about 6 o'clock.
Smallville. Luthor mansion.. Lionel Luthor is standing on the balcony.
"I told you. Our business was finished." said Lionel.
A gunshot is fired. Lionel clutches his chest, and falls over the balcony.
Nearby, Jonathan Kent is arrested in his truck, with a gun and a bottle of wine in his car .
The next morning. Hospital. Clark arrives, and finds the Sheriff Ethan Johnson and Dominic Stuart. Dominic accuses Lex of shooting Lionel, since they had a fight yesterday. Dominic leaves. Lex arrives, and tells Clark and the Sheriff of Dominic, Lionel, and Lex's conversation, and that Dominic didn't want Lex to be Lionel's successor.
Jail. Paige, Martha and Clark tell Jonathan that they will get him out. But there is some confusion, since Jonathan barely remembers last night. Paige decides to do some investigating, and orbs out.
Talon. Clark arrives, and Lana tells him that she saw Jonathan arguing with Lionel, yesterday. And that she told the Sheriff Ethan. Clark heads to his house.
House. Sheriff Ethan and other officials are checking the house for evidence. They find a smashed watch which Lionel had given to her. She had hidden it, but Jonathan had found it.
Bar. Clark and Pete arrive, and find evidence, but the police had already searched. They left.
Road. A truck forces them off the road, and Clark gets Pete out of the car .
Hospital. Pete is in a bed, being checked on. Clark is watching outside from the window. Lex arrives, and tells him that he suspected someone would go after him.
Bar. Clark returns, and discovers the body of the bar owner. He leaves, and tells Sheriff Ethan.
Hospital. Paige touches Ethan's hand, and gets a premonition. She sees him entering the Luthor mansion, and shooting Lionel. She runs and calls the police.
A few minutes later, Clark arrives and talks with the sheriff. Lex, Martha, and Dominic arrive.
"YOU! YOU DID THIS!" yelled Paige.
"Paige, stop." said Clark.
Paige walks towards Ethan, followed by Lex, Martha, and Dominic. Police officers are on the other side of Ethan, blocking him in.
"Paige what are you doing?" asked Clark.
"Getting the truth. Paige suspected him, and now I have the proof." said Lex, holding up a folder.
"You see, my father blackmailed Sheriff Ethan, to blackmail the board members of Lex Corp, and force them to sell to my father. And then he shot Lionel, and framed Jonathan for it." said Lex.
Ethan grabs Paige, and puts a gun to her head.
"Stand back. I'm not going to jail for this." said Ethan.
"Put the gun down. If Lionel survives, the charges will be dropped to attempted murder. You'll only have life in prison. That's better than dying." said Martha.
"She's right. Put the gun down." said Lex.
Paige elbows Ethan, and stomps on his foot, grabs his gun, and runs behind Clark. The officers grab Ethan, and drag him to jail.
Jail. Ethan is locked in jail, and Jonathan is released. The 4 Kents go home.
House.
"Are you alright Paige?" asked Martha.
"I'm fine. I just hope he stays in jail, and doesn't hurt Lionel or any of us again." said Paige.
Jail. Omar blinks in, and walks up to Ethan.
"You want revenge on Lionel Luthor. I can make it happen." said Omar, holding up a box.
A beam fires and hits Ethan. Omar smiles, and blinks out with Ethan.
Hollow's resting place. Omar blinks in, and places Ethan on the ground. He places the box, the Hollow, back in the place. He looks to see a woman, and man starting to come around. He walks over to Ethan, and blinks out. The man and woman wake up.
"Sleeping gas." said demon.
"The Hollow is here. Someone took it out, and then put it back." said angel.
"Someone has used the Hollow." said demon.
"The Elders and the Source need to know of this. I doubt one of them did it, because they know of its dangers." said angel.
"We can't leave, but let's contact them." said demon, calling a warlock, while the angel calls a whitelighter.
The 2 called beings, blink/orb out to tell the Elders/Source.
Underground. Ethan walks up.
"You are a demon. You are the mighty Lamos." said Omar.
"I'm Sheriff Ethan Johnson." said Ethan.
"That is who you were before. But the darkness in your heart, the hatred for the Luthors has made you evil, and with a little magic, I turned you into a demon. I will teach you how to use your powers. You can take your revenge on Lionel Luthor." said Omar.
Ethan nods, and the 2 walk out to begin training.
The next morning, Saturday.
"Clark! Ethan escaped jail. Chloe just told me on the phone. He just vanished, no guards saw him, and there were guards there posted the whole night." said Paige.
"Then we all better be prepared. He might come after us." said Clark.
"Call the Luthors. He might go after them." said Jonathan.
Paige picks up the phone, and calls Lex.
Luthor mansion.
"I'm aware of Ethan's escape. My father is now awake, and safe. He won't be harmed by Ethan. I sent him to Metropolis, where he can be better taken care of, and watched by police. For all we know, someone else was working with Ethan." said Lex.
"Good idea. I'll talk to you later." said Paige's voice.
Talon. Clark, Pete, Paige, Chloe, and Lana are all talking.
"First Whitney died in the army, and now Ethan's out on a rampage. Anyone could be in danger of being killed." said Lana.
"No. Just Clark, my parents, me, Dominic, Lex, and Lionel." said Paige. "And with Lionel safe in Metropolis, we better watch our backs." said Clark.
"My sentiments exactly." said Lex's voice.
They look back to see Lex, Jonathan, and Martha arriving.
"We must stick together. Ethan's out there somewhere, and when he discovers he can't find Lionel, he will attack us to find out where he is." said Lex.
Underworld.
"Excellent. You are making progress. Soon you will have mastered your powers. Paige Kent is 1/2 witch, and 1/2 whitelighter. She may get in your way. Kill her if you have too. Soon you will have your revenge, and I will have mine." said Omar.
