Ah ha. So now we know how Lex found Lois.. poor Jill. Good for Lois to be wary about Lex, and looking for a way out. Be proactive!

Can't wait to see the next part.

I like this Rachel!!!

Poor Lois, how scared she must be!

CLARK TO THE RESCUE - ROCKY MOUNTAIN HIGH

Great part, Wendy!!!

Love evil Lex

Nice Wendy. I can't wait for Clark to find her and for Lex to get his butt kicked! Laura

Personally, I want to see Lois kick the cr#p out of old Lexy. (Have I mentioned that I love to find new and fun ways to kill our favorite evil multi-billionaire?) Clark is just too nice! Besides, it would be a really nice come-down to have her wipe up the floor with him.

Nan

Hmmm, yes. It would be great if Lois could kick his butt. He's pretty confident now; I wonder if, now that he doesn't have to pretend with her, Lex will get a bit cocky. She might be able to catch him unaware, and do some damage. The only problem is, if she just hurts him slightly, he's likely to lash back pretty hard. He could really, really hurt her.

I hope Clark can find her. Then-- he has to find a way to get in to where she is. If he were already Superman, he could just bust in... but since he's still "only" Clark, and since Lois isn't the only one who knows his name, he has to be more subtle than superheroes usually are . No bursting through the walls, I guess. Hmmm... maybe an earthquake? Knock down a few walls?

I'm glad Rachel knows, too, and has just accepted it all these years. Wonder how she found out? I suppose if this particular Rachel also had a crush on him at one time, she might have paid close(r) attention to him, more than his other friends did... and you described her as very sharp, and she's probably very observant. I just think it's neat that she just takes it in stride. Makes me like her even more.

And I, too, like doc Jill's OCD-ishness . Hah! She's got a second blood sample, and a vet who can process it at a private lab. Once it's processed, she can label it "Exhibit A" and put it back into the fridge for later .

Unfortunately, the other blood sample disappeared when the original one did.

Jill really should have looked in the fridge before she said she had another sample to have tested.

Tank (who just didn't want the gentle readers getting their hopes up too high... after all this is evil Wendy)

LOL Tank

The blood sample is still in the fridge isn't it Wendy?

Jose

Lex doesn't know who he's dealing with! A pissed off Lois Lane and Super-Clark!

He's meat!

~Liz

Hi,

Great Part. Luthor is disgusting.

They are thinking. That was brilliant of Jill.

More ASAP, please.

MAF

Great part. I love how Rachel lets Clark know that she knows without saying anything. And I'm so glad Clark is finally searching for Lois. And Lois, well, I'll cheer her on next time Lex visits her. <eg>.

Sira -

I like how easily the Smallville people fit into Clark's life; it really sells the idea that Clark has grown up with them all his life.

Also, like everyone else, I love that Rachel knows the secret, has known the secret, and seemingly doesn't treat Clark any differently than she would otherwise. I'm not seeing signs of jealousy, but I kind of also like that.

(who is getting Masques flashbacks, which can only mean good things )

Read the story, Loved it. I agree with the other's, I love this Rachel too. Glad clark is out finding lois.

Rach

I'm really enjoying the intrigue in this story. (And if I may rehash some parts that I haven't managed to comment on...)

I thought it was wonderful the way Clark found Lois and flew her to safety in Smallville. (I think Smallville is the equivalent of comfort food.) But then Lex found her, and the use of the Lab to let Lex find Lois was very clever.

And now he has her hidden away somewhere in the Rockies. Why do I picture a cave similar to the one in IR? And how will Clark ever find her. (I think she should find something that will make a repetitive, silent sound and he'll hear it--like her heart beat? Oops! She doesn't know about his super hearing! And I hope that the hiding place isn't lead-lined.)

And isn't Lex on the trail of kryptonite. So even if Clark gets there, he may be incapacitated and Lois will have to kick butt.

I'm also enjoying Rachel and Jill. Sometimes it's nice to have an old friend know your secret secretly.

All right. I'll be patient and wait for the next installment.

Wow! Lots more wonderful comments!

Part 3 coming in a little bit - thanks again, everyone!


Wendy

You know... You would start with this and not Rachel's response! I'm only mad at myself, really, because for some reason I didn't see it coming. :rolleyes:



Is there a little graemlin that looks sort of green and sickly... kind of like it might get sick at any moment?



Oh thank god!!! I love you, Jill!!!

Awww!!!

Awww!! She knows.

/me punches her fist in the air and cheers... then looks around, embarrassed... mutter onlyastory mutter...

/me snickers and rummages around for that "Buy a Clue Jar".... *clink* *clink*

Well good... but... don't you think Lex would be the type to have cameras?
