I hadn't seen Clark for the rest of the day and i hoped that he would turn up. I bit my fingernails. Not having a date I walked into homecoming anyway. Mom had helped me get ready and I covered for Clark saying he was getting ready at Petes then quickly swipe the suit and hid it.

"Scrub up nicely Kent." Fordman commented

"5 minutes ended last night." I walk away to the refreshment table and got myself a some punch.

"Can't you take a compliment?"

"Can't you take a hint. I'm busy looking for my brother." I scan the room hoping that he's already here but I don't see him and he hasn't seen me.

"Oh, I think he's a little tied up." he snorted in amusement then left me alone. What the hell did that mean? Whatever it meant, it was nothing good, and now i was even more anxious. I made my way around and kept a ear out hoping to hear him. It was a hour before I did. I sped away and found him outside.

"You're here." he looked a little rugged. "What happened to you?"

"Pressing matters." he gestured away and I saw Jeremy with a open door to the sprinkler system.

"What did I miss?"

"He wants to use the sprinkler system to douse everyone with water and then electrocute them as revenge." okay

"No way, not happening, my friends are in there. They never did anything to you." I denied

"This isn't for me. I'm doing this for you and others like us." he retorted back and we stepped closer.

"What happened to you was our fault. We can understand your pain."

"I'm not in pain. I have a gift a purpose and a destiny." he turned but we sped to face him when he did

"So do we." He grabbed onto us standing probably thousands of joules into our system, enough to knock out any human but us, it little effected. i shoved my hands out sending him flying into a truck. He got back up.

"Give it up Jeremy!" I call over. in return he uses his powers to start up the truck and get inside. He speeds towards up but doesn't knock us over when he hits us head on. We grip on tight as he carried on full sped into and then through a wall. Gass starts leaking out. "Crap." I mutter as Jeremy uses his electric sending us back. i groaned slighting and push myself up. Clark and i pull the truck forward seeing the electricity dissipate away from Jeremy. Clark puts his hand on Jremy shoulder causing him to come around

"Are you okay?" he asks

"Who are you? Where am I?" Clark glanced to me then back to Jeremy

"We're Clark and Mia Kent, and you're in smallville." Clark tells him. We nod and help him out of the truck.

----

Clark goes into the dance and i follow behind him. He's looking down at Lana dancing with Whiteny. I slip my arm around his waist.

"So are you going to tell me where you've been all day?" I ask "I was worried and i searched for you."

"Whitney and the other jockes ambushed me and took me to the field making me the freshman scarecrow." he admitted

"He did what?" My voice dropped low "Why didn't you fight back?"

"I couldn't. Lana's necklace, that's what makes us weak and he was wearing it, he fixed it around my neck leaving me helpless till Lex found me after Jeremy left me there." I put a hand to my head.

"I'm gonna break his face." I went to leave but Clark pulled me back.

"No, break his face for us could mean worse than anyone else. Let's just go. Come on." he pulled me away and out into the parking lot. But then he stopped.

"What?" I sigh

"You might not be able to break his face but I don't think messing with his truck is a bad idea." he pointed to it and I raised my eyebrow at him with a smirk.

"Clark kent, you dark horse. Let's do it." I clap my hands and the two of us pile trucks one onto of the other with Whiteny's taking pride of place on top. We stood back laughing "Oh he's going to be so pissed."

"Come on." he pulled me away and we waited till they came out, everyone was laughing.

"Who did this to my truck?!" he called. I laughed as Clark draped his arm around me and escorted me away. 

----

I was now dressed for bed and working on my homework when there was a knock on my door. I stopped what I was doing.

"Come in!" I state and my Dad opens the door.

"How you doing sweetheart?" he asks me "Did you have a nice time?" he wondered coming to sit on my bed.

"Are High school dances always about the popular people?" I question making him laugh

"Kind of yeah. Why?"

"Lana won homecoming queen. I don't get it, what makes her so likeable? Sure she's nice and kind but I'm nice and kind. Then theres Fordman which is completely beyond me. High school is confusing." I tell him.

"Yeah, it has a way of being like that. But being popular is not everything, Mia." he replied

"I know, i just don't understand. Give me a math equation any day but social hierarchy of high school and it baffles me." I sigh as he chuckles "I'm sorry about earlier, with my reaction." i look down.

"Hey." he lifts my head up with his finger under my chin "it's a lot to take in. I think you not breaking anything is always a good reaction."

"I'm not that bad am I?" i pout

"Well let's just say your puberty was a lot rougher than Clarks." I shove his arm scowling "Don't stay up to late, will you now."

"I promise." he left my room and closed the door behind him. I waited till he was far enough away and slid off my bed putting on boots and then grabbing a box from underneath my bed. Grabbing a few things and then climbing out of my window and running off into the night. I stopped closer to school and looked around then carrying on slowly. Clark had his fun with the cars and so did I but, I was not a sister if I dropped things too soon.

"What are you doing skulking around your school at night." A torch was shone in my face and then lowered "Mia, right? Clarks sister." it was Lex Luthor

"Twin sister." I retort

"Okay, but that doesn't explain why you're here." he replied

"Same could be said for you, you're what early twenties? A bit old for high school or are you a wierdo?" He chuckled turning the torch off and then gestured back to the piled up cars.

"Heard that this happened, wanted to see it for myself, weird right?" he glanced back at me. "Now your turn." I didn't say anything

"What am I gonna do, shop you into the police, don't know about you but I've had my fill of them for this week. Promise I won't tell."

"The jocks messed with my brother, so I though I'd mess with them." i told him, he smirked and nodded

"What do you have in mind and do you need a partner?" he offered and I raised my eyebrow

"Seriously, that's it? No telling me off or forcing me away. You're just asking and offering to help?" i question

"I don't like bullies. So what do you have in mind?" he asks again and i grin telling him the plan.
