Hey I'm back ! Sorry for the late but here's some new chapters . I hope you'll still enjoy it
Few hours later , everyone met at the chapel . The wedding was at 3 pm . All the guest were taking place .
Martha was at Jeff's arms and took place at the first range where she felt an empty place next to her .
Chloe and Oliver were respectively maid of honor and best man and they were the last ones ( before the main couple ) . Clark wasn't standing at the aisle but looks like everyone on the Church seemed to know where he was , at least the people he cared about the most .
Lois was ready and she walked toward a mirror and looked at her reflection the very last time . Her heart was beating so much , she cannot believe that in few minutes she will end up as Mrs Kent herself .
A wave of emotions shook her entire body down to her spine . She smiled at her own reflection , adjusting her veil and her white dress .. That was a simple dress but she was obviously the most wonderful bride .
While she was ready to go , she heard a voice behind her
- I think there couldn't be a much more amazing bride . Clark would be the happiest man .
Lois jumped and turned to see Kara , dressed with a blue dress and her hair tied with a bun .
It was the first time Lois was seeing Kara dressed that way and she was really beautiful . Both of them were filled with emotions . They smiled to each other and tried not to cry . Maybe the makeup was waterproof but it wasn't the right time now .
Kara made her way to her and a huge smile crossed her face and they hugged quickly . Kara didn't want to ruin Lois dress .
- Kara ! I'm so happy to see you . I never thought you could be there . Clark has sent you a hundred messages .
- yeah ! To be honest , I shouldn't be there but last time I was on the Watchtower roof and I saw you and Clark . There is so much love between you two and .. I heard the baby's heart so I told myself , I wouldn't resist , I needed to be here . Clark is also my only family and it's a really big event and an honor to see a kryptonian-human union on Earth . So here I am , I'm so happy to be a part of it and congratulations for the baby .
Lois smiled and simply nodded . Kara took her hands .
- I would like to be there for you all along your pregnancy . Clark had maybe turned Jor-el off and I'm sure he didn't ask more details but I know something about it and if you don't mind , and so Clark , I want to help you because it's not easy for you to handle everything . You know you'll have Clark's power sooner or later and Clark is a man so could be a little bit weird for him to teach at a pregnant woman .
She winked . If things were keeping to be so emotional , Lois would burst into tears before saying " Yes " .
- Thank you so much Kara . Your sweet attention is just .. Thanks . And of course I agree for you to be there for us . Honestly I was also asking myself some questions about the upcoming months .
- Don't worry about that , I'll be there .
The bells rang .
- Oops ! I better go before you come in . See you later . This wedding is gonna be epic !
Kara smiled and quickly walked to the first range when she sat next to Martha that she had never met before . And both of them were happy to finally meet .
Lois smiled and sighed . Here she was , that was the time , the big day .
Doors opened to her and she was very optimistic but when she reached the doors , she panicked ..
People stood up and were amazed by her beauty , they took pictures .
But something was missing , or someone . Yeah , the groom wasn't on the altar and both Chloe and Oliver were there so as the priest ( who was a woman by the way ) .
Lois didn't want to be upset but she couldn't help it. Where was he ? And what if he had finally changed his mind ? This idea freaked the hell out of her … Being left at the altar , there was nothing worse .
But people on the chapel didn't seem to be worried , looks like everyone knew something she didn't .
And maybe it was , while she was ready to step back to run away , she felt a hand slowly sliding into hers and a chill shook her spine . She didn't have to raise her eyes to know it was him . Her man , her soulmate , the father of her child . She slowly raised her head and smiled like never when her eyes crossed his .
It was real and he was by her side , smiling .
They looked into each other eyes for seconds and Clark showed the way down to the aisle by a sign of his head . She nodded , didn't need one word to understand him . She gripped Clark's left arm . He slid his right hand to reach the hand she was gripping him and they moved surely together toward the aisle .
They were slowly walking as the traditional wedding march wanted to . Maybe slow but their heart were racing a eight miles , cannot wait to face the other and exchange their vows live this time and carrying that ring that will bring them together forever .
While they were walking , everyone was admired them . They were such a perfect couple . Love between them wasn't definitely not fake and could have being read into their eyes . Pictures were everywhere . Emotion was filling all the church and the ceremony hadn't started yet .
When they almost reached the altar , Clark looked at his mother who had sparkles in her eyes , he also saw his cousin who winked at him . He was very happy to see she was there but the thing that made him even happier was to see his father next to his mother . Jonathan smiled and nodded , made him understand how much he was proud .
Lois noticed how much Clark was smiling and asked him , not without emotion
- Is everything okay Smallville ?
- perfect ! It's perfect !
Lois couldn't stop smiling and they reached the altar . They faced each other , the ceremony could start and everyone sat down .
Sweet and Slowly , Clark took off Lois veil . Lois eyes were sparkling . She was surprised she wasn't crying yet .
They joined their hands together and the priest started the benediction , they were listening carefully without never take their eyes off the other .
While the priest was speaking , Martha noticed something different in Lois .. She seemed to had take weight, especially on her breast . The dress she had on her highlighted both her breast and her belly which was a little curved . Martha let down a sob when she got it . The last time she had seen Lois , she was as she always has been but now that Martha was seeing her in profile , there were no more doubts . And apparently Clark and Lois were about to make the announcement during the party . She was already out of controlling her emotions , which Jonathan had noticed when he saw his wife staring at their daughter in law .
When it was the time to exchange the vows , Lois started first and then they both alternated one sentence . Was making their heart beating into their brain to say those words face to face , and this time , emotion was surrounding all the people .
Lois eyes were blurry with tears even though she was doing all the best to hold them . Clark was in the same state but because of love and just because there was nothing beautiful to cry in the middle of the ceremony , he was holding his tears too .
Chloe was doing all the best not to sniff but not she didn't want to . She exchanged a look with Oliver . At the first range , Martha was in tears . The vows were so powerful , so much love into those words and into their voices , just their looks were speaking for themselves .
Kara was also like her aunt . She had a little tissue and was trying to being discreet by drying her tears , which the mascara has started to drop. She wasn't the kind to cry but at the moment , she should be emotionless if she wasn't crying . She turned to watch the other people on the Church and everyone was crying too . So she knew , she saw how much , this connection , this love between them was powerful .
Jonathan gave a peek to his wife and although he was a spirit , he was still feeling the emotion, too. He was so proud of Clark , Clark who deserved to have an happy life with Lois . She deserved his son , no one would never took him back in the right way like Lois did .
After their vows , the priest told them to exchange their rings . Oliver was supposed to keep them but at the last minute , Chloe has decided to take care of them against Oliver's will who had something else in mind but he would give the newlyweds a little gift anyway .
Chloe presented the box and Lois took the bigger ring without stop looking at Clark . She watched him for so long , her heart was going crazy and she cannot wait to put the ring on his finger .
Oliver looked at Lois gesture and was a bit upset and Chloe knew something wasn't right at the moment but tried to ignore while Lois just lift Clark finger with the ring .
A big smile crossed his face and he took the other ring , looking at Lois with love and slowly adding the ring to her engagement ring .
Once everything had be done , they looked at each other in silence and tears fell down all along their face . Chloe sighed with relief and put down the box into her purse .
The priest made a sign to allow them to kiss. Clark moved slowly to her , put a hand on her cheek and the other one of her waist and kissed her with sweetness and passion . Lois responded to his kiss by sliding her arms into his neck .
Everyone stood up and clapped them. They were husband and wife , was about time . The priest invited them to get down the altar and moved to the exit .
They did the same way as earlier but this time they were the first ones and people followed them behind .
Once they were outside , everyone send petal flowers on the newlyweds who were stuck to each other . Lois was too much filled with emotion . She wasn't able to talk and it was a first for her .
Clark had a hand around her waist and his head on hers , drying her tears from her cheeks and whispering some sweet words in her ear .
They were ready to take the cars and enjoying the party when Oliver came to Lois and gave her a little box . She gave him a questioning look .
- This is a gift for you and Clark ! Something that I bought . It's also a symbol of love .
Lois opened the box and there was a beautiful gold ring . She thanked him , didn't have any idea about that ring . But Chloe had see it and while Lois was running to her husband .
- Honey . Look what Oliver gave us as a wedding gift . We should put it somewhere in the apartment . I didn't try it but it seems too big for me . You should try , then , once in a while , you could wear it just for fun .
She showed him the ring and Clark smiled to Oliver for his generosity . Lois had taken the pleasure to slid the ring on Clark finger during the ceremony , wanted to do the same with this one but before she could do something , Chloe ran to them and slapped the ring before Lois took it off from the box . Both Clark and Lois looked at Chloe , surprised .
- Oliver ! What the hell is going on ?
The only answer was Oliver's eyes turning into dark . Lois pushed Chloe .
- Chloe be careful .
Clark looked at his best friend and sighed . Obviously , there has always going to something to spoil a good day .
- He's under Darkseid influence , he comes after me . Chloe get everybody out of here .
Chloe with Martha and Kara's help make all the guests leave telling them a big menace was on them and they need to put themselves in some place safe .
Clark kissed Lois before he confronted Darkseid .
- go ! I'll join you when I'll fix the problem .
Clark turned to Oliver who said to him
- Surrender to darkness
- Never !
Oliver caught him with a supernatural strength and made Clark flight all along the church , going through a window and fell on the opposite side . Lois who hadn't miss any of it , screamed
- Clark !
She ran away to help him but Chloe saw her and called her .
- No ! Lois ! No !
But there was no way she was going to let her best friend , killed or filled with darkness the man she had just married. While she took the stairs to reach Clark , Oliver obstructed her , caught her by the shoulders and pushed her . Kara wanted to catch her but in the meantime , Clark was back before his wife was on the ground and end up the day at the hospital in a serious state . He caught up as the " just married " way and looked at Kara who vanished with her .
Clark faced again to Oliver and tried to make him back to reason .
- Oliver this isn't you ! Don't let him take you over .
Oliver didn't hear anything and send him his fist on his face but he avoided and the billionaire slide down the stairs and fell into the stones , but he didn't feel anything and stood up .
- Oliver , listen to me , you need to fight it .
- You're too late .
He caught up Clark like nothing and swung him over him to send him back into the church and broke half of the bunches .
- There's no saving you .
He was about to hit him again but Clark stopped him .
- That's not true . You haven't always made the right choices . You once gave up on yourself and those around you .
Clark was trying to stop him in any ways but Darkseid strength was bigger and Oliver ran into him , pushing him toward the font which one the water became dark and broke with their strengths .
And that was the moment , Clark knew what kind of ring it was when it escaped from Oliver's pocket . Oliver took the ring and they stood up . Clark sadly looked at him .
- I'm not giving up on you Oliver , you have a good heart . Let it guide you . You and I , we have to save the world together . I need you to be a hero . I know you'll make the right choice . You know Gold Kryptonite will take away my powers forever .
Oliver looked at the ring and his face was changing as a new hope so Clark added
- listen ! I believe in you .
That was the right thing to say . For every good people , hearing that someone believe in them , always make them way back to who they really were .
His human side took over and he crushed the ring , falling down on his knees in front of Clark and the spirit of Darskeid , got out and freed him from the darkness , the Omega symbol disappeared and a tear rolled into his cheek .
Clark kneeled before him and was relieved to see his friend was back to himself and had taken away the darkness .
- Everything's okay now .
He helped him to stand up . Oliver looked outside and his eyes opened wide .
- No , it's not .
Clark turned and what he was seeing was worse than .. worse . Outside , the sun has been hidden by a huge fireball .. Apokolips , Darkseid's planet .
- Looks like the word is gonna need its heroes sooner than we thought .
Later at the farm :
Clark and Oliver had joined , Martha , Kara , Lois and Chloe . Lois had changed and put a dress which was highlighted her whole body so her belly was very exposed .
The three women already knew but Clark didn't know that they did . Oliver also noticed it when it came into the house but didn't say a word about it .
The news were saying that some atmospheric changes were shaking Earth and anywhere in the World , people were freaking out .
Martha was on the phone with the general Lane and Lois needed her husband listening a voicemail from Tess , which had explained why she wasn't there for the wedding .
- I guess the cell phone reception was going down while Tess was leaving this message - Lois said to Clark
- play that again
" I was trying to warn you . Watchtower is compromised . Prophets are at the center of this . According to the journals , Apokolips is an actual planet , it's coming . "
He let the information goes through his brain and looked at his wife .
- The eclipse . Darkseid is behind it . That must be why he tried to get Oliver to put the ring on me . He knows I would've tried to stop him . We need to find Tess . It sounds like she may know a way to defeat the darkness .
Martha joined them after the call with the general .
- The joints chiefs of Staff and the Defense department aren't speaking about anything until the president makes a statement . If the Pentagon's not stepping up , I'll call every available agent . Something tells me we'll need them all .
Kara joined them too and told them
- Maybe I could help . I'm not there by coincidence .
Clark looked at Kara and shook his head
- I'm really happy to see you but this is all up to me . So I need to fix that .
Was Chloe and Oliver's turn to join them .
- No offense but I think , we're gonna need a bigger team - said Chloe , Kara you can come with me if you want .
Kara raised her shoulders , nodded .
- If Watchtower is down , I gotta go to Star City to access my database .
Oliver wanted to go with her but she refused .
- Kara are you okay to come with me ?
- No problems . And with me , you'll be there faster .
- good !
Lois and Clark looked at their friends , Chloe hugged Clark
- be careful Clark !
Before she left , Clark called her
- uh .. Chloe , wait !
Lois knew he was about to make the announcement at the moment he took her hand . She smiled .
- I know this isn't the good time with everything now but you need to know that , all of you . You are family , friends and you're always here for us but today , Lois and I we're ' just married ' but also we have a good announcement to make , hoping we will make it until that day .
Lois laid her head on his neck and kissed his cheek .
- don't worry honey ! I'm sure everything will be fine .
Everyone looked at the others and stared at the couple . Lois nodded to Clark
- well … Lois and I .. We're going to have a baby .
Besides the apocalypse situation , a feeling of joy reached everyone on the house , even they already knew . Clark and Lois were both congratulated , Martha hugged them so tight , she was barely able to keep her emotions for herself , she couldn't deal about being a grand-mother , she wasn't realizing that yet . Lois already pictured her step-mother reaction and couldn't help but burst into laughs , seeing her dancing everywhere .
Chloe and Kara left them for Star City . Few minutes later , a little quake happened , Lois and Martha looked through the window , holding each other hands , while Clark because of the storm had just seen a shadow and not a random one .. It was Jonathan . He followed him into the barn .
He met Jonathan and was very surprised to see him like he was never gone .
- Dad …
Jonathan smiled and turned to face his son .
- I knew you'd see me again . When you were ready .
Clark cannot believe he was really talking to his father and he was barely able to keep his emotion .
- I made a mistake dad . I thought I had to leave you behind . But you and Mom , everyone that I care about that makes this world worth saving
He took the stairs and got closer to the man who had raised him .
- But you're worried you're gonna fail this time . I know you scared son .
- I faced Darkseid before . He knows my weakness . He almost defeated me . I need your help .
Jonathan smiled to him and try to reassure him .
- But son ,he never saw the man who's standing before me now .
Clark smiled back to him . Feeling heartwarming to hear those kind of words from his dead father. Jonathan put his hands on his shoulders .
- Clark Kent ! As much as your mother and I tried to protect you from your origins , tried to prepare you to face any challenge
He sighed
- I'm sorry , son but our guidance just isn't enough anymore .
Clark was about to replied something but his father cut him off
- You'r gonna have to let Jor-el guide you from here on out .
- I can't , Dad . I turned my back on him like I did you .
- He's your father ! He'll understand .
Jonathan kissed him on the forehead when Martha's voice , taking the stairs , reassured him as she always did .
- Don't doubt yourself , Clark . This has been coming for a long time .
Martha joined her son and put her hands on his , watching him , tears in her eyes . She was so proud of the man he was , the man she taught all the things about life . And now it was his turn to teach them , although he has been raised with his mother and father's love and he will do the same for his child .
- Before you arrived , we wanted a child so badly . You were filled with so many doubts that you didn't even imagine you're going to be a father yourself so soon .. But yes that's real and Clark , just love and protect this child as both your father and me we did since the day we found you on this cornfield I mean you found us . The day you found us is that field , you were the miracle we prayed for and now the world needs that same miracle .
Clark couldn't hold his tears much longer , he nodded , unable to say something more . He hugged his mother and whispered to her
- if anything should happen to me , please mom , promise me you will watch over Lois and our child .
She muttered a soft " I will honey " and she laid her head against his chest . Clark raised his eyes to his father who was also crying and joined his wife and his son in an emotional family hug .
A new rumble happened and they let go each other . Martha was scared and looked over the sky , hoping that Clark could really fix that imminent end of the world . Jonathan looked at Clark
- Son ! It's time .
He lengthily looked at both of his parents and said in a broken voice
- thank you .
And he whooshed .
He went looking for Tess everywhere for long minutes . He came back where she had left the voicemail and found another cell phone with a video message this time .
It seemed that she was pursued but he couldn't locate her but he hope he will and that she was safe though .
So he made his way back to the bullpen and saw that Apokolips was much more nearest to the sun . He sighed and entered in the building to see his wife taking the stairs. Pregnant or not, end of the world or not , if there was any scoop , Clark was sure to find Lois at the Daily Planet .
- Lois
- All satellite and Internet connection went down 15 minutes ago . Have you found Tess ?
- Only her abandoned car . She was on her way to Smallville to warn us .
- I think with that planet hurtling toward Earth , everyone got the warning .
They came into the bullpen when everybody was in a rush , in a normal day it would be usual but this was a real mess and really felt like the last day on Earth .
Clark stopped to look at everyone but Lois distracted his attention by taking his hand.
- Honey ! You think those three prophets took Tess ?
- She left her cell phone under the car seat with a video message for one of us to find .
- One of us with X-ray vision , maybe .
They stared at each other , grinning even though the situation wasn't funny at all.
A special flash coming from the White House confirmed that the eclipse was coming from a meteor . Lois and Clark didn't believe that for a second .
- We know prophets use people's darkness to mark with an Omega . What we don't know is why . And Tess quoted one of the prophecies as saying the markings weren't just spiritual but there's a sort of anti-life force that could bring about the Apokolips .
- You mean bringing a giant planet crashing into ours ?
- Exactly like that .
He looked around him and kept telling about his idea
- Maybe the marking has some unexplainable gravitational pull .
- Too bad anti-life equations aren't covered in Physics 101 .
The couple walked further in the bullpen to reach their desks .
- I need to figure out a way to lift the darkness and break whatever's binding these people to that planet .
- Today definitely tops Chloe's wall of weird . Exactly how many people are marked ?
Clark X ray-ed all the room and saw a lot of people infected by the mark .
- More than you wanna know .
A new quake happened and Lois looked all over the room too , rubbing her belly like she was usually doing now .
- Clark , you inspired the darkness out of Oliver .
- I can't do that for everyone on the Planet , Lois . If Tess knows how to stop this , I need to find her .
He sat down and started to make some researches on his computer .
- Got a shot of her car's parking camera and the license plate of whoever took her .
The license plate " MT1 022 " appeared . Clark came into the database while another rumbling shook them , made both Clark and Lois raise their eyes towards the window where outside there were some big fire lightening .
- Out database shows it's registered to
- A company called Preclox ?
- Yeah . It was founded only six weeks ago .
Lois took place at her old computer to make the researches too .
- According to their bank records , they have limitless funds .
- Genetic research .
- I only know of one mega-mogul who's obsessed with genetic engineering : Lionel Luthor .
Everything was suddenly clearer to Clark
- Who knows he's being tracked by Tess Mercer
- Yeah , but the GPS went down with the satellites .
- This should tell us where he was 15 minutes ago .
He fiddled with some things and found the result
- Lois , that's the Luthor mansion .
Lois frowned
- But that place burned to the ground .
- Maybe what Lionel's after is underground . The Luthor mansion was built on a labyrinth of corridors underneath it .
He was ready to go when another quake shook the entire building and then he realized he was about to go without saying to his wife to get safe .
- Lois , no matter what happens ..
She got closer and laid a finger on his lips .
- Clark , a person that I greatly admire once told me , than when you believe in someone , it's not for a few minutes or sometimes or just for now , it's forever .
Clark smiled . He was happy that Lois was quoting his vows , it proved how much she loved him and she wasn't ready to forget those wonderful words .
- now go save the world .
Clark looked at her for a few seconds, without saying anything . He just got closer to her face and gave her one of his most passionate kisses. They kissed for a few minutes while the shakings were keeping and everyone was running out of the building .
A light crashed down the sky and lighted Clark and Lois when they were still kissing . When a break happened , they released each other and looked at themselves with love . Lois slowly rubbed his cheek .
- I'll be fine and I'm taking care of Junior too .
Clark smiled , knowing he could trust her anyway . She wasn't his wife for nothing .
He rubbed her belly , one last kiss to encourage him and he whooshed .
Lois heard a new flash and followed a reporter who was in contact with the President .
She tried by every ways to convince her to tell the President they didn't have to elaborate a strategy , she was a general daughter and she understood that it meant make everything explode . She showed Janet a picture of Apokolips and explained it was a Planet and nothing could reach it but the radioactivity would kill half of the World and only the Blur could get them out of that . Janet laughed at her , telling her she couldn't believe she was still on this super heroes stories .
Lois felt her blood running through her veins . Too bad for the lady , she was pregnant so easily irritable so she took a hole puncher and knocked out Janet with it .
She apologized and insulted her . Stole her badge to take the plane at her place .
She made a face , already picturing Clark's reaction when he would know that she had taken the plane in the state she was in and in a situation when flights weren't the safest way but what she was about to risk to save the world .
She raised her shoulders
- Well .. Junior you'd better stay quiet , okay ? I promise you , mom is not gonna put herself in danger on that plane and so what ? A pregnant woman still have the right to travel until some specifics months . I'll be careful , mom's words . And your mom is a Lane , don't forget that . And don't make me start arguing with you , your also a kryptonian so this isn't a flight which gonna freaking you out .
If it wasn't the end of the world , everyone would think that she was crazy , speaking to her belly , which wasn't enough chubby to notice she was pregnant at the moment , especially when it was dark everywhere .
Clark has gone to the Luthor mansion where he didn't find find Tess in all this burning mess but he've got a surprise visitor instead. Lex who was more than alive .
Lex told him that his father made a deal with Darkseid to save him . Clark knew this wasn't definitely the Lionel Luthor he knew to make those kind of sacrifices for his son .
Lex tried to make Clark remember all this old good memories both of them had together , wanted to start a new beginning between them and maybe had a chance to save their friendship but Clark knew he was a lost cause .
Lex had hurt so many people around him , he was a murderer and Clark knew he had been blind to trust him . However , he apologized to him about not being able to save him and he whooshed , letting Lex by himself on the mansion .
Oliver had visit the three Darkseid host to take them down . They were barely able to understand that the Omega wasn't on Green Arrow anymore that he shot and they disappeared . He smiled , here a good thing done and one of the bigger problem , fixed .
Everything was now under Clark's hands .
In the meantime, Lois had taken the Air force one plane , in which the President was supposed to be . She was very curious and not really comfortable about the consequences they planned . She hoped her husband would stop that before the worse was coming .
She looked at the stewards and stewardess and the President body guards , who were talking , like there wasn't a huge problem . She looked at her badge and realized that Janet Dawson's picture was too much forward . Then she slid her hair to hide the picture and no one would see she was an impostor . Even she knew that sooner or later , her cover will explode .
Bothered and eager to know what was going in the front of the plane , she stood up and walked the faster she could to avoid the guard who was talking with his co-worker but he saw her and stopped her .
- You're not authorized to go in there .
She looked at him and smiled . A charming smile , hoping that her feminine charm will help her , like it always did.
- I must have forgotten my hall pass . I was just going to the bathroom .
She tried to shape over him but he moved backward to block her . She was red and thought she was going to burn him " Oh my god … Lucky you I don't have any powers yet " .
- It's that way - he said , shower her the back of the plane .
Lois rolled her eyes
- Okay . They said that they would brief us in two minutes . It's now been 15 and I really need ..
The guard didn't blink and wasn't smiling at all , keeping showing her the back of the plane . Lois knew she wouldn't have the last word and she had to find another diversion .
- Do you see that giant motion orb out there ? Now whatever story they told you , it's crashing into the planet .
At the same time , a rumble happened and made the plane lose a little bit of altitude . Lois had to press on her belly and holding up the first seat in front of her , hoping she wasn't doing something stupid to be there .
- you can see it with your own eyes . - she showed the window and outside the sky was becoming orange but not because of the sunset .
The guard let his post to give a glimpse and Lois enjoyed the moment to run away from him and entered in a room where there was a meeting .
The guard shouted to her
- hey ! Hey ! Hey ! Hey !
Lois interrupted the middle of the meeting .
- I just need a few minutes of your time .
She made everyone jump while the guard took her by the arms
- I'm sorry sir
- No ! Wait ! I have some information you need to know .
Another guard stood up and took her by the other side . Lois had already killed them three times in her mind . She wished her baby would give her some powers right now and they would release her but as she said earlier , we didn't get all we want .
The President secretary , talked to her in a bitter voice .
- I don't know how you got on this plane , lady but you're stepping so far of your position .
- All that matters is the truth and you don't have it . Please , Mr Secretary .
He nodded to the guards who released her . Lois gave them a dirty look and moved toward the meeting table .
- I have proof that the meteor that you're about to nuke is much larger than you realize with a density that will result in you spewing nuclear fallout over half the hemisphere that could take out millions of people .
A silence fell on the table and everyone looked at the others, embarrassing . Lois lengthily looked at them and she ticked . Well , those politicians men were hiding their game very well. In shock she told them
- But you already know that don't you ?
The secretary didn't answer but his look said everything . Lois cannot believe it .
- You all realize you're gonna be taking out a third of the Earth's population and you're not even gonna warn them ?
Another rumble and a military spoke .
- We can't spread panic .
- It will only aggravate an already impossible situation .
Lois couldn't believe what she was hearing . Well , first that was a true nightmare and second she didn't any idea that some selfish people could exist , especially people who had a family , a real family . How could they deal with that ? Let them die ?
She put a hand on her belly and everyone noticed it .
- And what about your families ? I'm two months pregnant … Being on that plane is a risk for me but if I'm there it's also for this baby . I want him to know life , his parents , his family … Just simply Earth .
No one answered , Lois sighed , her eyes frowned .
- And the President ? Where are we gonna .. ?
A woman replied to her
- To a secure bunker . The casualties are nothing compared to losing the entire planet . We don't have a choice
" Bitch " was the only thoughts that crossed Lois mind . She couldn't keep her rage for herself , they had pissing her off especially with her pregnancy hormones .
Another shaking .
- Now if you'll excuse us .. - said the secretary .
No way . Lois wouldn't let Earth and its habitants , being destroyed. She needed to convince them , in one way or another and she knew her man will make it .
- No wait ! You do have the choices . Heroes .
Everyone rolled their eyes
- One who will stop this before you unleash you nukes . I know some deeply disturbed brass have rounded them up and tried to dirty their names , but the people had their day . And they gave our heroes a chance to prove themselves .
The rumble became more and more regular .
- You owe the people a chance to see that their faith was worth something .
The secretary stood up .
- The world is in crisis . This is not a time for your little hero crusade , Miss .. ?
Lois had never be so sure of herself that at that moment . Clark was her hero , her husband and she knew that he will be there in time . He always been for the biggest emergencies and it wasn't today that he will fail .
- Mrs .. Kent . This is exactly the time for my hero . He will be here . He will save us . I promise . I know you're all wanna see your families again . You just need to give our heroes a chance .
Everyone looked at the secretary , the woman who had talk to Lois , nodded and he replied to Lois
- your heroes have five minutes .
Lois was relieved and smiled . Now she was hoping that Clark will be there in time but she had honestly no doubts . Blushing , she slowly rubbed her belly
- We're gonna make it Junior . Daddy and Mommy will have so much stories to tell you in few years .
