Chapter Two - Eleven Years Later
11 Years Later
-Mia-
I had left for school early. Clark would have a field day but I needed to finish off the english assignment. I had already left it to the last minute to have late night races. My brother and i were different, we had powers...gifts. We were super strong and fast. a lot of the time it manage to get Clark into trouble. I however had a better time on not falling into natural instincts.
"Ah, the allusive know it all of Smallville High. Mia Kent." I the voice of popular jock Whitney say my name. I look up.
"What do you want, Fordman. I'm busy." I look back down to my work and carry on, seeing to get this finished. "Aren't you supposed to be with the neanderthals, no wait I mean the immature stunted. no, i got it your fellow teammates."
"Funny as well as smart. Word around the school is that your the brains of the Kent duo. Never failed a test. I need you to tutor me." I look up with a raised eyebrow.
"Tutor? You? What could you possibly be failing at right now? The school years has barely started? To add to that why would I help you? You and your lapdogs think you rule the school just because you play a football." I sassed him
"Ouch, judge much?" he retorted
"A lot, it's fun."
"Last year I just managed to scrap by in Math. If my grades don't improve it could mess up my place on the team and my future. Mr Hoffman suggested that i come see his brightest student in 25 years, for help." i chuckled shaking my head and finishing off my assignment.
"The answers no. Now go away, like I said. I'm busy." I continue on with my work and he leaves. Five minutes after i finish the paper and glance down at my watch. Clark should be here by now. I go to find him. Seeing that he's with Fordman and Lana. When I got over Clark looked ill.
"Clark?" I questioned heading over when as usual anywhere near Lana i felt ill. Not in a mean way but something about her just knocked Clark and I back.
"Are you okay, Mia?" Lana asked concerned and I backed away from her.
"Yeah fine." I moved around and grabbed ahold of my brother and helped him further away from his long term crush till the two of us felt better. "Every time, every time either of us are near her we get sick. Why take the chance?"
"You don't understand." He huffed out adjusting the books that he had.
"That you're an idiot . Nope I've known that for years." I smirk making him roll his eyes "Clark, Lana is a nice person but either it's something about her or on her or I don't know that affects both of us. Five feet and you make a fool of yourself, I just feel ill. We don't get ill, ever. It is best for us if you regin in your hormones and avoid her...like she has a plague." I chimed the last bit.
"You have a very cynical view about things, sis." He sighed
"Not cynical. Just realistic. Come on." We headed for our lockers and then towards our first class.

After school, I had to go to work. I had gotten a job over the summer to start earning for my college fund. I had gotten a job at the coffee shop in the hospital. It was a foot in the door not exactly a medical degree but I heard the doctors, nurses other medical staff talking and I learnt what I heard so it couldn't do any harm. Dr Mia Kent, that was the goal. My phone started ringing and i broke off for a second.
"Dad? Is everything okay?" I ask. He was never one to call me at work.
"No. Your brothers been involved in the accident on the bridge. Your closer, can you get there make sure everything okay."
"Yeah. Of course." I hung up and told my manage that I needed to go, she let me off and I literally sped over seeing the scene. "Clark!" I yelled
"My brothers down there." I was let through and ran over to him. "What happened are you okay?"
"I'm fine . Honestly." I pulled him into a hug, which he returned. I knew he would be fine, we're always fine. About five minutes later dad arrived.
"Clark!" he called skidding down and over to us. Clark had been given a blanket. "Son, are you alright?" Dad checked him over.
"Yeah, I'm okay." Clark assured him.
"Who's the manic who was driving that car." dad was mad and quite right too although i wouldn't be surprised the other guy being in bad shape. Dad had this vein that would pop out of his neck when he was about to lose it on someone.
That would be me." A bald man came over holding out his hand he barely had a scratch on him "Lex Luthor." Dad took off his jacket.
"I'm Jonathan Kent. These are my children. More importantly my son." He wrapped the jacket around Clark.
"Felling the love Dad." I nodded as I adjusted the jacket around my brother.
"Thanks for saving my life." Lex Luthor nodded to him
"I'm sure you'd have done the same." Clark stood up and I followed as he headed back up the ravine.
"You have an extraordinary boy. If there is any way I can repay you..." Dad turned back to him
"Drive slower." he replied and then the three of us left to go back home. When we got home Mom fussed over Clark left to get a shower and then he went out to the barn.
