What if Clark was not the only Kryptonian sent to Earth? Of course, there are many possibilities, but this is the one I'd like to see in a fic:

Both Kal-El (aka Clark Kent) and Zara are sent to Earth as babies, and before they can get romantically attached to someone else (Lois...), they are told that they are promised to each other at birth (the whole birthwife/birthhusband thing).

Of course, being brought up on Earth does have a major impact on Zara's personality. She might be anything from a spoiled brat to a loving and caring person.

What I'd like you to consider:
Are both children sent to Earth in one ship only? If so, it can be assumed they're both found by the Kents, who raise 'Clark' and 'Sara' as their own, maybe even as twins. So, how does their relationship develop? Will they actually get romantically involved? And what will happen once they meet their respective soul mates?

Assume Kal and Zara were sent in different ships, and Clark is indeed found and raised by the Kents. In this scenario, you'd have to come up with a background for Zara. Will she be raised in Smallville (maybe even as Lana Lang?) or somewhere else in Kansas (meeting Clark in their college days) or Metropolis (aka Mayson Drake - or even Cat Grant)? Maybe Zara is raised somewhere else entirely (as a Nigerian princess, for instance)...

Anyway, sooner or later they are bound to meet. What will happen? Will they discover their telepathic talents? Will they feel they have to marry because it was the will of their families?

What happens when Clark meets Lois? And who is Zara's soul mate in this story? Lt. Ching from NK? Bill Henderson? Dan Scardino? A Lt. Ching of the US Army/Navy/Air Force?
