Kent Farm

Smallville, Kansas

When they touched down, Sarah looked around, immediately knowing where she was once she laid eyes on the familiar white house, "You brought us here?" She questions before smiling, "You remembered,"

     "This is home," He says.

She responds after taking in his scent, "You smell good,"

Clarks looks from the house to her, in a matter of milliseconds, "Did I not before?"

Sarah laughs slightly. It was her first, genuine, laugh that she's had in a while. She holds out her hand for him to take, "Let's go see if we can find you a shirt,"

     "You don't like me like this?" Clark teases, taking her hand.

     "Ahhhhh" Arthur yells throwing an expensive object at the wall.

     "Don't do that," Bruce says sternly.

J'onn breathes out heavily, he was trying to concentrate on his medication. Arthur then turns his attention to the Martian.

     "What's wrong with him?"

With his eyes still closed,  J'onn spoke up, "It's called mediation...You should try it sometime,"

Wonder Woman lifts her eyes from the sharpening of her sword, noting his discontentment.

     "We just got our asses handed to us, Steppenwolf has got the third Box, and your meditating?!" he growls.

Diana sighs, she has to dissipate the tention somehow, "We find them," she says, "If the boxes are close to each other, there is going to be some kind of energy surge,"

     "Steppenwolf's gonna be keeping them somewhere where they don't read. No internet. No satellite coverage," Victor says.

     "That narrows it down, at least," Bruce mumbles.

Victor shakes his head, "Not enough,"

Arthur approaches Victor, narrowing his eyes, "So, you can't find them? Or maybe you don't want to?"

Victor turns around, his arm canon building up. Arthur looks down at his arm, "Yeah, 'cause that worked well against Superman," Arthur replies sarcastically.

     "Man, I'm not doing this on purpose,"

     "Right, because you can't control the machine," Arthur retorts.

Barry interrupts them sheepishly, "Uh, so, is this a bad time to bring up my blood sugar?...I'm very hungry,"

His intrusion seems to have defused the situation.

Arthur walks away.

Diana approaches Victor, "Victor, you can find the boxes. You share their energy," she began, her hand touching his shoulder "I know it's frightening, but if you go under, I promise, we will pull you back out,"

Victor looks to Arthur, and smiles, "Just keep the little merman away from me while I work," he whispers.

Diana smirks.
