Prologue

Clark Kent was worried. The kryptonite already had him on his hands and knees, gasping for breath. In a few minutes, he had no doubt, he'd be unconscious and at the mercy of whoever found him. If they found him in time. The veins in his hand were bulging, almost as if they were ready to explode. The pain quickly subsided as blackness filled his eyes.

A hidden door opens from the wall. Lex Luthor enters the secret chamber and stares at Clark, the man who saved his life on more than one occasion. The man that he once had considered a friend, before Clark's lies and mysteries had corrupted that friendship. Lex walks closer, sure that Clark is unconscious. "Don't worry Clark. I'm not going to let you die. I'm just going to find out everything that you've been hiding from me. Then you're going to work for me."

Lex bends down, picking up a chunk of the kryptonite and placing it inside of Clark's jacket. He turns back to the door where he came in, and the part of the wall covered in lead. "Take him."

The wall opens yet again, and two men enter the room and pick Clark up. They take him through the door with Lex following close behind.
