MercyFrost- Thank you once again for your kind comments. And can I say, me too? I adore Mia and her acquaintance with Oliver, they had something like a sibling relationship right? Yeah Tess and Lana, now that's something we SHOULD see….. hehe… Yep, I didn't like Lana either, she had a b*tchyness that words couldn't say, right? And I hope to give Lana what she deserves, a good, realistic and happy ending. No matter how b*tchy she'd been, Lana and Clark had gone through a lot, and she absolutely deserves a break. At least from Lex. Thank you!

Ica013- Thank you very much! Yes, I like to give the inspiration that Tess had good friends until the end and Chloe is just the start. I guess you understood that the heart to heart in a darkened room meant about the conversation they had when the power went out in the Hero HQs. And thank you about that suggestion. I actually forgot about that. I will do what you said, thanks. And Lex and Lana, who knew, right? Hehe….. actually it was implied in the show… anyhow, I hope to bring good aspects in Lana. I hope you'll like my new OC as well, I do.

Dana- Thank you very much! Please keep reading and reviewing

Guest- Thank you very much! Please keep reading and reviewing

AN 2: Chapter four here we are. So the nod at 'Arrow' is Thea Dearden Queen, who in 'Arrow' is Oliver Queen's little sister. Since in 'Smallville' there is a Mia Dearden, I guess you understand how I'm gonna construct Mia's character. Yep, like Ollie's sister. No newer OCs here, just some joining sub characters. I hope you'll like all perfect Ted Crane. I like him!

Starting fun and a lot of adventure to other characters. Please read and review!

Chapter Four

Tess woke up from a nightmare again. It was the same as ever. Lex stabbing her in the stomach. She knew what the reason was, but still she couldn't stop sweating bullets. She was panting furiously by now and had no idea why she was still so scared. She was safe and away from danger, yet why did she keep thinking that there might be something more looping in the dark? She wiped away the sweat that was pooling along her eyebrows and sat on the bed. Her stomach was still hurting and Tess couldn't do anything much about it. She started to get up just as she heard noises from outside her room.

Tess was still as paranoid as she used to be and so she grabbed her boots and put them on hurriedly. She packed her bag with the supplies she bought before and scanned the place for more evidence of her being there.

She opened the window and looked outside. She was on a top floor of the dingy building, and so strapping her bag around her shoulder, she jumped outside, creeping along the roofs, lying low. She passed a couple of people and so she bent low, shutting her eyes tight at the pain in her stomach. At a corner, she jumped off the roof, falling down. The pain was too much and all Tess could do was pass out.

Meanwhile in the 'Inquisitor' office, Twenty eight year old Mike Fuller was tapping a pen on his teeth, getting awkward glances from his best friend and partner, Ted Crane, who was sitting in front of him. Ted, being the perfectionist as always, cleared his throat, and nodded at Mike's coffee mug. This still didn't bring the scatter brained reporter to earth.

"Mike!" Ted all but yelled.

"Aw, shit!"

Mike jumped and spilled his coffee on his white shirt. He gave a disapproving glance at his best friend who was suddenly much more immersed in the article he was typing. Carelessly, Mike grabbed a paper from his partner's desk and started mopping his shirt. He stopped to look at the article and his eyes grew wide.

"You!" he yelled, and the busy office stopped their work and looked at Mike, who was pointing his coffee stained article at Ted, "It's you?"

"I'm what?"

"Oh….. Clever, very clever, Teddy. Amelia will get to know this from me" Mike said in an accusing tone.

"Not my wife….. and should I spell it out to you?" Ted asked, annoyed, "I. Am. What?"

"Writing articles against Lex Luthor, what are you trying to get? Fired, perhaps? Or strangled in a lone island?"

"I don't even want to know where you got those fantasies from"

"'Charmed', but that's not the point" Mike said, inducing Ted to widen his eyes, "Why are you trying to flip off the editor?"

"What are you now then? Watching 'Charmed'? You are such a momma's boy. What, do you watch chick flicks eating chocolate ice cream now?" Ted teased

"Why are you being a pain, man?" Mike asked.

"What?" Ted said back, "Like you haven't been a good ole pain in his ass by now, writing about Tess Mercer"

Mike rolled his eyes and leaned back. It was a known fact in the office that Ted Crane was totally in love with the red-haired heiress. As Mike put his legs up on the desk behind him, the guy on that desk protested but didn't hear anything from it. It was also a known fact that Mike Fuller wasn't someone to mess around with. He's annoying, he's irritating, he's aggravating, but he got his facts straight. He was very ambitious.

"She's a bitch, dork. And you should be knowing it by now. Lex Luthor is a much more valuable person in this field."

"Lex Luthor is an anti-heroic person who deserves to die" Ted stated.

"Ok, fine, I don't like his rage against the Blur either, but that doesn't mean the man's stupid" Mike said.

"Do we really have to talk about this, Mike?" Ted asked, shaking his head.

"Yes"

"No"

"Yes"

"No- This is stupid. I'm going to get a coffee" Ted said, standing up and grabbing his mug, "You coming?"

"Nah" Mike let his legs fall down and opened up a new word page, "I have a document to print"

"More about Tess Mercer? She's dead, man. Let her rest in peace" Ted said, not noticing Mike's sudden froze.

"I don't think she is… I think she is very very very alive" he said to himself, starting to type.

A black Lamborghini stopped in a dark and dingy street. The driver shut the doors while still inside and killed the lights, with the engine still running. There were drug dealers all around and Mia Dearden really didn't want to dirty her hands now. Yep, she fought well. Actually, she was a cage fighter. Nobody could be better than a cage fighter. Well except Oliver Queen, maybe. It was a huge surprise for Mia that day, when the drunk millionaire playboy turned out to be the wealthy people's biggest enemy, Green Arrow. She really hadn't seen that coming. She looked around her and waited till the street became deserted. Then she opened the door of Ollie's Lamborghini and crept along the streets. She was dressed street-smart; grey t-shirt, checked black and white over shirt, dark blue denim trouser and heel-less black boots. Her dark brown hair was pulled up in a pony tail. She walked along the streets, her fists curling to balls whenever she heard a sound.

At the end of the street, she saw it. 'Tennyson Home For Children' it said in huge black letters that had faded due to time. She breathed in deeply and walked towards it. That was until she heard a sound. Groaning. She heard an 'Ow!' in the distance and stopped. Blood. On the streets, there was blood. Lots and lots of it. She walked along the trail and came to a stop. There was a distant figure, trying to stand up. Mia stood motionless. Her common sense was telling her to run, but she couldn't move her feet. The figure came into her POV now, and Mia could make out the outline. A dark shape, but she was sure that she could see red. Not the blood….

"Who…. Who-who are y-you?" the voice came in a gasp cutting tone.

That's when Mia saw exactly. It was a red haired girl with blood on her stomach.

AN 3: Face off. Haha… there's a cliff hanging you'd never expect. Anybody know who the red haired girl with blood on her stomach is? I know, I know, you are not pre-schoolers. Hope you enjoyed. Three parts, and a mix in eventually. Review!

*hugs*,
