Chapter 3
"You're lying." Clark said as he walked over to her, grabbing her by the throat.
"Put her down or I drop you." Chuck said from behind him, only to feel a click beside his ear.
"You pull your trigger I pull mine, and I promise you I don't miss." Sarah told him, keeping her gun pressed against his skull.
"I'm not lying Kal. Your father was named Jor-El, and mine was your uncle Zor-El. Your mother, my aunt Lara asked me to watch out for you, to protect you."
"As you can see I'm perfectly capable of protecting myself."
"Yes you are. Although, I have to wonder if your ship was aimed properly. Did the Kent's find you or-"
"You're serious. You're my cousin." He said as he released her, allowing her to stand.
"Yes, and it seems my cousin's all grown up." She replied, and Clark just smiled before embracing her. After a moment the two cousin's broke their embrace, turning to the two spies in the room, both whom had holstered their weapons.
"Kara, I'd like you to meet Sarah Kent, my wife. Sarah well-"
"I know." She replied softly, smiling at her husband's happiness.
"Look Clark, about the whole gun thing-"
"Save it Chuck. I get it. If it was Sarah I'd do the same thing." He replied, promptly earning them kisses from their respective blonde.
"So I guess I can safely say that Kara's not just your partner." Clark said as the two couples broke for air.
"You can say that. So tell me, how did you wind up with Graham's Wild Card Enforcer?"
"I downloaded the Intersect into my head."
"You mean you downloaded an Intersect into your head."
"What are you talking about? There's only one Intersect." Clark asked, and Chuck shook his head.
"Actually, there's two. My father built the first one which Bryce Larken sent to you. I was able to duplicate it."
Clark just laughed and shook his head.
"Prove it."
Chuck grinned, and walked out of the room, and into the gym where a mat was set up, sliding off his coat when Clark did the same.
"No powers."
"Fair enough, no kryptonite."
"Kryptonite?"
"Meteor rock." He said, and Chuck nodded in understanding.
"Loser buys beer?" Chuck asked, and Clark grinned.
"You're on."
Sarah and Kara both watched from beside the mat as the two men's eyes rolled into the back of their heads as they flashed. Clark charged at Chuck, bringing his fist towards the other man's throat, only for Chuck to block it before sweeping at Clark's legs. The Last Son of Krypton jumped over the kick and lashed out with his elbow, only for it to be blocked.
"Incredible. They're not just reacting." Kara said, and Sarah shook her head.
"They're following the same program."
The fight continued for several minutes before both men stepped back, breathing heavily.
"I guess I'm not the only Intersect."
"You know what they say about two being better than one." Chuck replied, and Clark laughed.
"Yes, I do. Now, let's go grab a couple beers. I'm buying."
"You sure?"
"I'm sure. Didn't anybody tell you? I'm a millionaire."
"No shit?"
"No shit." Clark replied as the two walked over to their girls, both of them thinking this was the start of a beautiful friendship.
"So, Kara you spent twelve years in stasis under a dam?"
"Yes, and I probably would've spent twelve more if it wasn't for Chuck." Kara said with a smile towards her boyfriend who just grinned in return.
"I was out on a training op when I saw something and decided to take a look. I don't remember what I thought it would be, but I definitely didn't expect a spaceship with the love of my life."
"Something tells me your boss didn't take too kindly to you bringing a girl back to base?" Clark asked.
"I took care of it. I hacked into the database and gave her a file as a missing agent."
"I'm impressed. Remind me to introduce you to my sister, she'll love having another sibling, especially one that she can actually talk tech with. So how did you get rid of the spaceship?"
"I took the memory crystal out and then the ship self-destructed." Kara replied, and Clark's eyes widened.
"I'm kidding. I took out the crystal, took the ship to the middle of the Sahara and then blew it up."
"Because that's so much better." Clark said sarcastically, unable to hide the grin on his face.
"What about you?"
"My ship's in the storm cellar so no worries." He replied, and she smirked.
"I'm going to get a refill, care to give me a hand Kara?" Sarah asked, and Kara nodded before standing up and following the other blonde.
"So, I'm just going to get this out of the way now Chuck. You break her heart, I'll snap your neck."
"Got it."
"Good man, I- Oh hell."
"What- Oh hell, this should be fun." Chuck said, and Clark nodded as Sarah and Kara walked back over to them. Both men quickly pulled their respective girlfriend onto their laps and kissed them.
"What-"
"Don't look now, but we've got a problem." Clark said as he broke the kiss. However, before he could say anything else he felt a gun push into his side.
"It's been a while hasn't it Clark? Now get the blonde bitch off your lap and stand up slowly."
"Same goes for you Chuck."
Slowly the two men complied, not wanting to risk a stray bullet in such an enclosed area.
"Lana. Shouldn't you be rotting in prison for being a Fulcrum agent?"
"Funny thing about that. We're actually here under orders."
"I'm sorry I don't think we've met." Clark replied, watching for any opening he could use.
"Clark, this is Jill Roberts my ex."
"Chuck, Kara, meet my ex Lana Lang, better known as the bitch who sold me out."
"I guess that explains why we prefer blondes." Chuck said, shooting Kara a look. Faster than the eye could see Kara had swiped the guns from the two women, knocking them both to the floor.
"Now, how about we go somewhere and talk about how you both found us, and why you're not rotting in prison. Maybe if you tell me what I want to know, I won't let Sarah interrogate you."
"Like I said, we were under orders." Jill said just as everyone in the barn pulled their weapons and aimed them at the couples.
"Orders from who?"
"That would be me. John Decker, at your service." A man said as he walked into the room. He didn't offer to shake hands, which was just as well; his hand would have most likely been shot off.
"Clark Kent, but I'm assuming you already know that."
"Oh indeed I do. I also know that all of you are under arrest."
"On what charges? Actually, don't answer that. You're out of the loop John, I only take orders from the President. You see my badge?" He asked, pulling it from his pocket.
"It's a do whatever I want and get away with it badge. Now tell your people to back off before this turns ugly."
"I'm afraid I can't do that. You see, the Intersect is the property of the United States government and as such-"
"Sarah, if he dosen't back off in ten seconds take out his kneecap." Clark said, cutting the man off.
"Your move Johnny boy." He said, and Decker glared before walking out of the building.
Clark, Sarah, Kara and Chuck all walked out a few minutes later, the eyes of the remaining patrons practically burning a hole into their backs.
"Chuck, how many people know about what you were able to do?"
"Counting you three? Just the President and...the Director of the CIA."
"Let me guess, guy by the name of Decker?"
"Yeah."
"Just great." He said as he fished his phone out of his pocket.
"Yes, this is Agent Kent, get me the General. Look, I don't care about your protocol! If you don't get General Lane on the phone in the next ten seconds I promise you you'll be shipped out to Siberia!"
Thousands of miles away in Washington General Sam Lane took the phone from his second in command, ignoring the man's tirade.
"Clark, what's this about son? We both know you can't pull off that threat."
"General, I'm sorry about that, but this is important. Are Lois and Chloe still with you?"
"Yes, they were just heading downstairs to get dinner."
"Damn it! Stop them right now, and put them on lock down."
It was a result of Sam Lane's trust in the young man who had saved his niece that he didn't question the order; instead he started issuing orders of his own to the men in the room. Once they were gone, he put the phone back to his ear.
"Clark, what's going on?"
"The new CIA Director wants to arrest me, and I think we both could guess why. I managed to get him to back off since I only report to the President but I don't think that's going to last. I think he's going to try to use my team to get to me. Whatever you do, unless the order comes from David Palmer do not let Lois and Chloe go anywhere."
"I won't, but you know Lois is going to be very unhappy about this don't you?"
"All due respect sir, I'll take an angry Lois over a captured Lois any day of the week."
"You and me both. Be safe, and I'll see what I can dig up on my end."
"Thank you General. I'll be in touch." He said before hanging up the phone.
"What now Clark?" Kara asked.
"Now, you all are under arrest. The Intersect is government property, and that's where it's going to stay." John Decker said as he pulled up in a black van, with other cars surrounding them on all sides.
"Decker, please stop wasting time. Didn't I tell you, I only answer to the President now back off before I make you."
"Oh I don't think so Kent. You see I looked up your little terrorist prevention group. It's a subset of the CIA which falls under my jurisdiction. Now get in the van, Bartowski too. Your dad designed the Intersect. And you duplicated which you government property too. Now come quietly, and I won't have my men pay your sister and brother in law a visit."
"Why you-"
"Chuck wait. I know you're angry, and I would love nothing more than to help you kill this son of a bitch, but we're surrounded and their bullets are covered in lead. You know what that means."
"I know dammit. Fine we'll do this your way, but the girls go free. Otherwise we'll see just how many of you the two of us can kill before we die. Your choice."
"Done."
"No you can't! Clark you promised me!"
"We promised each other the job came first Sarah. Now please, get out of here."
"You can't expect me to just watch you get taken!"
"If it means I don't have to watch you die then yes! Please...if you died it would kill me!" Clark begged, while Chuck was having the same battle with Kara. Finally both women nodded, pulling their respective man in for a hard kiss before letting them go. Decker placed cuffs on both their wrists, and Clark's eyes widened as he saw his were made of kryptonite.
"Yes, I know about the rock. It's amazing what your buddy Lex would tell me in exchange for his freedom." Decker said before his men threw the two captives into the van, knocking both unconscious before speeding away.
