Here By My Side: Jesse Camp

So, we're in space. In some kind of glass prism. That Clark is currently trying to break. But I'm even more shocked at the fact that I'm still able to breathe. Must be a new ability of mine. I guess that's a win for me.

Clark bangs on the glass twice with hands and I look around. I then look down as the hair on the back of my neck sticks up. I grip Clark's shoulder and he follows my gaze down beneath our feet. Clark presses his foot down and we both fall straight through.

We keep going until I see icy grounds through my mask. I now lunge forward to go faster. I pass Clark and shoot a web straight down. I now grab Clark's wrist and pull him beside me. My web sticks on top of the icy mountain.

I hold Clark as my hand stays on his wrist to keep him from falling down the icy mountain. I send him a nod and then let him go. Clark gasps and I shoot a web. It hits his chest and he grabs the web before I start pulling him up with all my super strength.

I grit my teeth and look around. My eyes widen in realization and I let go of the web I'm holding up top. I fly down the mountain and then grab Clark. I shoot another web and we swing forward, then setting us both on our feet.

"Hey, can you breathe? Are you okay? Can you breathe?" Clark grabs my shoulders.

I merely nod and look around again. I now look up the mountain as the wind gets harsher. I shoot a web and leap all the way up. I land on top and shoot a web down. Clark grabs the web and I pull him to the top. He lands next to me and we walk down the other icy mountain. We keep going and the hair sticks up on the back of my neck. I turn as someone passes us.

"Hello! Is anyone there?" His voice echoes.

I pull him down as something black quickly passes around us. I get on one leg and shoot webs at the moving creature, trying to slow it down. It lunges at Clark, but I shoot a web at it. I now pull it forward and it claws at me, almost ripping my mask.

I kick it all the way back before a woman in a black mask shine a clear disk at the creature. A blue light whirls up and the creature disappears. I kneel back down to Clark and help him sit up. I gently cup his face, running my thumb over the cuts on his cheek.

"I like the mask." Clark sniffles. "You're amazing.
Thank you."

The hair sticks up on the back of my neck before I turn, catching the girl's foot with my hands.

"You're unusual." The girl says. "Welcome to the Phantom Zone."

I now stand up and she takes a step back as I get in her face. I point to her and then to Clark. I now turn back to her and run my thumb across her throat. I tilt my head down, glaring at her through my mask. I help Clark up and wrap his arm around my neck.
