Clark takes Valery home, laying her on the sofa. "She's angry," Valery whispers, still a bit weak from the exposure. "I know." "She's gonna kill me, Clark." Clark nods, "I know, I heard, Super Hearing remember?" Valery laughs a bit, "Always the one to make a situation comical." "I have to, it's the only way to defuse the tense situations," Clark says, laughing at his humor. Valery sighs, "I miss home, Kal...I sometimes wish General Zod and Zor-El hadn't destroyed it." "I know, I miss Krypton too. But ask yourself, would you leave Earth if Krypton magically returned?" Valery thinks about it for a moment, "I wouldn't, I couldn't leave you, Lois, Ma, Diana, Victor, Bruce, Barry, or Arthur. I know you wouldn't leave Earth, everything you've ever loved is here." "All the more reason you'd stay." Valery smiles and nods, "I can't leave you, I barely got over you dying when I got you back." "I'm not going anywhere, Val." Valery puts her head on Clark's shoulder, "I know you're not." "You should rest, I'll stay here with you. She won't get past me, I'm not gonna let her hurt you." Valery nods, "Alright let me go change, you can wait outside the door." Valery says and flies upstairs, Clark follows and waits outside the door. Valery changes into pajamas, flies back out, and lays on the sofa. "I'll be right beside you." Valery nods and closes her eyes, falling asleep quickly.
Clark stays on alert the entire time, not leaving Valery's side. A knock echoes through the house, but Clark doesn't dare move from the chair, a knock sounds again. "Clark, it's Arthur." Clark gets up and flies to the door, opening it. "She's asleep, but you're welcome to stay. I really do need to get back to her, I don't trust your fish girlfriend." "Mera, she isn't my girlfriend, well she was my girlfriend." "Girlfriend or not, I don't trust her, she wants my sister dead." "I know, I'm sorry. Mera thinks that Valery will rule beside me as my Queen, but Val said it herself she doesn't want the throne." "She wants Mera to have it?" "Yes, but Mera won't rule as my Queen, she'll rule as the Queen." "Then why does she want to kill Val?" "She's jealous of Valery because I broke up with her." "She needs to see that you love Val and she'll have to deal with it. You do love my sister, right?" Arthur nods, "As much as my mother loves my father." "I'm sorry, I don't understand." "My father, Tom, he's a human, and my mother Queen Atlanna is a sea dweller." Clark nods, "So that's why Val says you're Half Atlantean." Arthur nods, "My mother fell in love with my human father, while I fell in love with a humanoid." "Humanoid, that's what people are calling us?" "I thought you'd prefer Humanoid over Alien or Mutant." Clark shakes his head, "I'd prefer Kryptonian over those three names." "Kryptonian, I fell in love with a Kryptonian." Clark smiles. "She loves you, I can tell. She looks at you the way she looked at our dog Krypto, she loved that dog like he was a human being." "Did you just compare me to a dog?" Clark laughs, "No, I was trying to say that she loves you almost as much as she loved Krypto." "Krypto was a very good dog, I wish Mom and Dad would've sent him to Earth with us." A voice says from behind. Arthur and Clark turn around, both with smiles on their faces. Valery looks at them, "What?" Arthur picks up Valery, spinning her around. Valery laughs, "Glad to see you too."
