Resistant • Jonathan Kent

xv. Last Sons of Krypton

Rather than the normal two days it would've taken for her entire body to heal from such grievous wounds, Tiana was back to normal as she was quickly racing back to Smallville. "Jon! Jordan!" She shouted and Jon was racing forward, before she lunged forward and she was hugging him. "Jon? Oh my god, your arm." She whispered and then, she was looking at his arm. "Jon." She said as he was shaking his head.

"I'm okay. But Jordan, he was... Edge took him." Tiana was trying not to hurt him more as she was shaking her head. "Tiana... Tiana, you were saving people. Tiana, I cannot let you blame yourself for this..." Tiana pushed past him and she was trying to pull the door open, but she was fast. She wasn't strong like Clark or, even like Cameron, who was helping him look on the other side of their world.

Kyle, Lana and Sarah were charging forward quickly. Kyle was helping General Lane out of the car as Tiana was holding up Jon, who was gripping her hand with his unbroken one.

"I'm staying right here with you Jonathan Kent, unless you would rather I, not stand by your side." She murmured and he was looking at her.

"Stay." Jon whispered and she was quickly nodded, before she was looking up. "What? What's wrong?!" He asked and Tal-Rho floated above them. "Go!" He said and she was racing up a nearby building, before she was leaping and lightning was sent flying at the man in the sky.

Tal-Rho tanked the lightning, before he hit her across the chest, and she went skidding across the ground.

"Tiana?" She looked up, groaning and she saw that it was Lana staring down at her as she shook her head. "You are... You are the speedster?" She asked in astonishment and Tiana's eyes flashed, before she lunged over at Tal-Rho again, but she was back on the ground in seconds as then quickly now, she was spitting blood down onto the ground as she groaned in pain.

Jon ran forward and she was looking up at him, after Tal-Rho was gone as he crouched down next to her. "Help." She said and he nodded, before she grasped his hand and quickly, he was helping her up.

"Lana knows my identity." Tiana quietly murmured and Jon was pulling her into a hug. "And frankly God only knows, how many others in the town know now?" She said softly as they were getting back to the barn quickly.

"You are too injured to help us with Tal-Rho, Tiana, and you can barely fight off Kryptonians on a normal day at your peak." Tiana's mouth opened, but Clark gave her a look that said, he didn't want to hear any arguments from her. "It is your job to protect Jonathan and Lois, when they are going through Jordan's head." Clark said quietly and he was nodding. "Are you clear on what you have to do?"

"I am a lot of things, Clark. But I'm sure as fucking hell, not stupid." She stated and he was nodding, before he was quickly disappearing into the sky and then, so was John Henry in his suit.

Jordan's heat vision hit Tiana, who hit the ground and the sound gun was sending him flying. Tiana was groaning and she was on the ground, before she was tackling Jordan out of the air and she was attacking him in a fury.

Just trying to pretend that it was only Zheta-Rho that she was hitting, not that he was wearing Jordan's face.

Jordan was grinning after they had gotten him to kick Zheta-Rho out of his head, and Tiana was quickly hugging Jon after the fight was over.

Finally, they were safe from the world temporarily and Tiana was laying down next to him on the bed quickly, after the barbecue was over. "I, uh... I kind of, I bought this for you a while back." Jon said and she was lifting her eyebrows, before he held out the chain to her.

Tiana looked at it, before she was smiling down at the emblem that was on it. "I would ask where you found this, but... It kind of looks like an old relic." She admitted and he smiled.

"I understand if it feels too painful, but this is your symbol as much as it was your dad's. I mean, he was the Flash." Jon said quietly and she was nodding, before she closed her eyes and she felt tears prickling behind her eyelids.

"He was. But he does deserve to have somebody, carry on his legacy." She said as he was looking at her, before she swiftly was taking the chain and then, she was swiftly hanging it around her neck. "Thank you, Jon." She said and he swiftly grinned at her.

"I love you." He said and then, she was looking over at him with a grin on her face and he shook his head. "Why the heck, are you laughing at me?"

"I'm not. It's just, you said it the most random time!" She said with a bright laugh as Jon was shaking his head, before she was nodding. "I love you too, Jon." She murmured and she was leaning against his side with a smile on her face.

After the funeral that they had for Jor-El and his crystal from the Fortress of Solitude, there was something coming and ripping through the air. Tiana quickly sped over to the others, while Clark was appearing out of the barn and Tiana's body crackled with lightning. "Easy, Tiana." Clark said as she glanced at him. "We don't know who or what it is. So, we don't attack until we know." He said as she sighed, before she nodded and the lightning faded. But there were still holes in her clothing from the energy and her eyes flashed. "Easy." Clark said.

"I'm all right." Tiana snapped at him under her breath and Cameron walked out of the house silently to join them, as the doors opened and there was a teenage girl getting out of the pod and John Irons's face lit up.

"Natalie?" Tiana guessed and John nodded at the words, before he was hugging his daughter tightly and both of them were crying. Taylor's phone beeped and she was looking down at her phone, before she sighed. "They need me at the DOD." She said quietly to Clark, who glanced over at her.

"Go." He said and she was quickly disappearing into her suit, before she took off in a flash of lightning.
