Hey guys. I just want to say sorry for the lack of updating of this story. I had writers block for the longest time. Then a lot of family and personal problems happened. But after refreshing my memory on where I left the story at I'm ready to add the next chapter to the story. Hope you enjoy. And again I'm sorry and if the chapter is a little off (meaning the writing) I'm sorry for that too. Enjoy!!!

This chapter contains spoilers from future episodes. Do not read if you don't want to know.

"Who are you? You look familiar but I don't know where from." Lois said as she looked at the person standing in front of Tina.

"In a minute, Let me just get rid of this thing in front of me."

In a quick second the clone of Tina was flung across the room. Hitting the wall of the room, her body just landed on the floor. Her body just lay there limp and not moving. She was definitely unconscious.

Lois was getting impatient. She wanted to know who this person was and if they were there to help her or to hurt her. 'Who is this elsta-boy? And why is he here?' Lois thought to herself.

"Alright minute is over. Now tell me who you are before I kung-fu your ass into next year." Lois exclaimed.

"One, you can't kung-fu my ass. You're strapped to a bed. Two, my name is Pete Ross. Now will you be willing to let me un-strap you?" Pete asked.

'Pete Ross? As in Chloe and Clark's best friend Pete Ross?' Lois thought to herself. She wasn't sure if she should believe him or not but he did just send Tina flying across the room.

"Fine." Lois said.

Pete walked over to Lois on the table as he began to un-strap her. He helped her off the bed, putting one of her arm's around his shoulders and putting his arm around her waist. Helping her walk out of the room, he didn't have a lot of time before the security came to find him.

They were able to make it out of the building and into Pete's car alright. As soon as they pulled off they were stopped at the gate. Pete and Lois began to panic as the guard approached the car.

"What are we going to do?" Lois asked. She didn't want Pete's rescue efforts to go to waste.

Pete didn't want to wait around, he just stepped on the gas pedal and gunned it out of the spot they were in. Catching the guard off-guard he tripped over his own feet. Watching the car speed away he radioed the other guards about the security breach.

Lois was relieved to be out of that place and away from Lex. But she was still unsure about Pete and how he knew where she was. She looked over at him, studied him for a bit. Pete looked over at Lois to see her staring at him. He turned his attention back to the road and smirked.

"Let me guess. You're still unsure about me and this whole situation. Am I right?" Pete asked.

"Pinned it right on the nose, how can I be sure I can trust you?" Lois asked.

"You can't, but I did just get you out of that place." Pete replied.

"Yeah, which brings me to my next question. How did you know where I was?" Lois asked

"Now's not the time to ask that. When we get to where we need to be then I'll tell you what you need to know or want to know. But for now I can't tell you." Pete said.

Pete focused on the road as Lois just let out a heavy sigh. Knowing that she wasn't going to get anything out of him, all she could do was just sit there and not talk which was going to be hard for her.

Clark rushed into his kitchen at his house. Everyone jumped at the door slamming, they were all caught off guard by the sound and by his loud entrance. Chloe stood up, walked over to Clark and hugged him.

"Clark, your okay. Thank goodness. What happened?" Chloe asked looking Clark in the eyes.

Everyone walked over and stood behind Chloe. They all wanted to know where he had been. Clark wasn't sure what to say or how to say it. Not everyone in that room knew about his real father, the fortress of solitude or the plans that his biological parents had set out for him.

Clark took a step back and cleared his throat. Looking at every single person in that room he was choosing his words carefully in his head.

"Wait, this is the Kent's. Were at the Kent's!" Lois exclaimed in excitement.

As soon as the car stopped she jumped out of the car and used all of her energy and strength to run and fall to the door. She didn't care about the pain or the small usage of her legs. She was just happy to be at a place the she knew she was safe at.

"Well, Clark?" Chloe asked.

"I needed to clear my head and find out somethings…

Before he could continue the door behind him had opened and he saw the look of surprise and happiness on everyone's face. Chloe looked as if she was about to cry. She ran past Clark and headed for the door. As Chloe ran past Clark and turned to see who she was running to. He couldn't believe his eyes. 'Is it really her?' Clark asked himself.

Before he could express his emotions he saw someone come up behind Lois. A person that he hasn't seen in 4 years, his best friend Pete Ross.

"Pete?" Clark asked.

Chloe looked over Lois' shoulder and took her arm and grabbed Pete with it and hugged him as well. Lana was shocked. She walked over to Pete and hugged him as well. Both Chloe and Lana let go and looked at both Lois and Pete.

"I don't know what to say." Lana said.

"I'll explain everything later but I think someone needs to say hello to a certain person." Pete replied.

Pete, Chloe, and Lana moved out of the way. Lois was just standing there not looking at anyone else but Clark. She was smiling with her mouth and her eyes. Clark was just standing there looking at her. Stunned and happy, he thought that he was never going to see her ever again.

"Lois." Clark said.

Lois made her way over to Clark but half way over she started to fall but Clark took a step forward and caught her before she could touch the ground. Having her in his arms was the best feeling he had ever felt. He was just so happy to see her, to feel her, and to hold her.

'Thank you for coming back to me.' Clark thought to himself.

"I'm so glad that you're okay and alive. I was so worried about you." Clark said to Lois. He pulled back a bit but was still holding Lois. All he could do was look her in the eyes.

Lois smiled up at him. She touched his cheek with her hand making sure she wasn't dreaming. Knowing that it was all real, that she had made it out of that place and that she was actually in Clark's arm's made her so happy. Happy enough to cry. Clark looked at her and was surprised to see her crying.

"Lois? Lois, are you crying?" Clark asked.

"No, I just have something in my eyes. I don't cry. I was raised by the general." Lois said.

Everyone just laughed. They were happy to know that she was back safe and sound. But the happy reunion was over and some questions needed to be answered. Clark and everyone else looked over at Pete. They needed to know why he was there and how he got Lois out.

"Pete?"

"Yeah, Clark?" Pete answered

"How did you get Lois out?"

"Well…
