Posting a little earlier than normal, because my Friday part is probably going to hit the boards sometime on Thursday.

At long last, however, Lois was free to go. As fast as she could, and despite the doctor's orders to take it easy, she'd rushed through Metropolis General, making a beeline for Clark's room. She arrived somewhat breathless and paused outside of his room, catching her breath.
It sure is hard to move fast these days, she mused, rubbing her nearly seven months pregnant belly.
Then she plunged into Clark's room, only to stop short a second or two after she entered. Everything was exactly where she'd left things. Except for Clark.
Clark was missing.

It seems as though Sam and Bernie's box may have just expanded...
Either that or Wells has shown up.
Nice chapter DC, you do love cliffhangers don't you

What? No! You can't end there! 
I can't see any positive reason for him to be missing; any miracle cure that Sam or Bernie had come up with could have waited until they had discussed it with Lois first.
Please post the next part super-soon. Please?

Lynn, in my view one of few things are possible:
1. They did not have time (Lois was detained at MetGen's Maternity ward)
2. It was potentially hazardous for one or both of them (after all DC says someone is going to die) and they did not want Lois to have to make that decision especially with her pregnancy being negatively impacted by the stress already.
3. Something else that DC has come up with

Thanks! Sam and Bernie's box may have expanded, or it may have just become the pine kind.

Sorry! What kind of evil writer would I be if I didn't leave it where I did? 
There was a definite reason why things were not discussed with Lois before Clark vanished, I can assure you that.

Re: FDK: Clark's Heart (7/10) - 05/25/14 08:30 PM
Or perhaps the person who won't make it is Sam. He's not exactly a spring chicken, and he has been putting in a lot of grueling hours in a high-stress situation.
But if that's the case, I'm still not sure why Clark's room is empty. Mike, I had considered two of your options before you posted, and had explicitly (but perhaps erroneously -- only DC and her betas know) discounted your first option. Clark's condition had apparently remained unchanged for weeks. The odds that it would suddenly deteriorate at just the time when Sam and Bernie found a cure and Lois was temporarily unavailable seem to me to be astronomically slim. The third option is always on the table.
I hadn't thought about your second option, but both of the men know Lois and know that even under these unusual circumstances, she would not be happy to have her husband's fate determined without her input, even in such a difficult situation. I'm not sure what procedure would endanger either of the doctors. If Clark were human, some sort of transplant or extreme blood transfusion might do so, but any such procedure would be precluded by Clark's alien physiology.
Then again, I'll admit that my own reading of this part of the story is not at all objective; it hits far too close to home for me. I found out that my Dad had died of cancer by his empty bed. I lived several hours away from my parents at the time, and when I had left my home, he had been alive, but barely. As soon as I arrived at my parents' house, I didn't even take the time to seek out my other relatives; I had had such a sense of urgency that I immediately rushed into the room where I had expected him to be and encountered my parents' empty -- and made -- bed. The bed, coupled with the expressions on my mother and sister, who met me as I was digesting what I had seen of the bedroom, told me without a word spoken that my Dad had passed.
I'll admit that the story part's ending sucker-punched me and is definitely coloring my interpretation of what might be happening. I really hope my interpretation is proven wrong.
Is it Thursday yet?
Joy,
Lynn

Re: FDK: Clark's Heart (7/10) - 05/25/14 09:00 PM
Lynn,
I agree about Sam. He was my pick several chapters ago. But I suspect we have a number of misdirections to go through first :
.
Of course there is always option three and DC could always get rid of the annoying Ellen. I have always been amazed why more authors do not kill Ellen off in these stories. Sam makes the most sense to me because he feels like he let Lois down when she was young and this might be his opportunity to make it up to her.
Like I have said before, Clark is so obvious that I am pretty sure he is safe.
Mike

Re: FDK: Clark's Heart (7/10) - 05/25/14 09:06 PM
Mike, I hope you're right, and that DC doesn't pull a double-twist and go for the obvious since she might expect everyone to expect a single twist and therefore overlook the obvious -- a la "The Purloined Letter". (This conversation is beginning to feel to me like a scene from "The Princess Bride.")

Re: FDK: Clark's Heart (7/10) - 05/25/14 09:37 PM
Lynn,
That is why there is always option 3. You can't trust DC after all...
She did say in Part 4 FDK, that while there will be unpleasantness that she hoped we found the ending to be satisfying. So I am kind of holding her to that one...

Wow, Lynn, so sorry that my part brings up such a difficult memory for you.
So, we've had bets on Sam, Clark, the baby, a clone...this is fun!

Is that an official bet on Ellen?
You'll find out in the next chapter who I've killed. And yes, they are dead at the time Lois walks into Clark's empty room.

Nah, my bet is still on Sam as he is much more likely to be heroic for the sake of his daughter's future than Ellen. I was just pondering why so few authors kill of the annoying Ellen...
By my timetable there should be a part out today (at least it is after midnight the 26th where I am).
Mike
Re: FDK: Clark's Heart (7/10) - 05/26/14 11:05 AM
Mike, I hope you're right, but based on what DC wrote in the opening post of this thread, I think part seven was the one that would normally have dropped today and that the next part will be coming out on Thursday.
DC, no apologies necessary. You didn't know about my Dad, and I knew that this was a WHAMmy story going into it; I just hadn't realized how close to home it would be for me. Of course, if you want to make it up to me, you could always post part eight today. (Hey, a girl can try, can't she? )

Okay. I was just checking. Still, I mark off one vote for Ellen, just for fun.New part Thursday. I posted this one post-midnight (my time) so that counted as the weekend installment. I might post it post-midnight Wednesday, depending on how things go. I won't be able to do Friday, in all likelihood (I'll be out of state visiting family), so you'll get it a little earlier.

Well the only one off the table is Lois and the baby since you said the person that will die is already dead by the time she gets back to the room...
The reason we thought there would be one out today was a comment you made in the Part 6 comments

It's not really an accelerate schedule for posting. I was just itching to get this part posted (it and the next chapter are my favorite cliffies) and I wanted to maintain my Thurs/Fri and Sun/Mon schedule. So, look for a new part late Sunday or sometime on Monday.
Well this way you can keep us on edge a bit longer. Mentally I was expecting this be completed by this time next week but now it looks like it will be later.

I'm eager for the next chapter to see who you've killed off. It certainly seems like it's Clark, but if it were him, might they keep him there until Lois got back so she could say goodbye?
What if Bernie and Sam got ahold of the life-sucker device that did part of the damage in the first place and sucked a year or so off each of their own lives to revitalize Clark? Or Jimmy (or Sam) could have volunteered some of his life-force, and he ends up dead because they accidentally took too much? But I can't actually see any of them doing that to Jimmy, even if he offered.

You are not torturing me. I am finishing Oops: The Destruction of Utopia for the May Reading Club and trying to finally finish Trusting Me, Trusting You for my own reading.

Yeah, I don't see anyone allowing Jimmy to give up his life force to save Clark. That would definitely kill Clark, especially if something went wrong and they took too much - after all, he gave up his life force to save Jimmy in the first place.

OK, you Evil Cliffhanger Ficcy Queen...
I sacrificed a goat (a virtual goat, much less messy to sacrifice, dontcha know) so that you would resolve the previous cliffhanger.
Do I have to sacrifice two goats now to learn what's going to happen next?
(Those virtual goats are kind of expensive, you know!)

No, no need to sacrifice another goat, since Chapter 7 was already up when you made the sacrifice. New part coming probably Thursday.

Again, so so glad that I do not have to wait for part 8 to be posted--'Yah! 
' for being behind...
I did not see this coming (Clark not being in the room when Lois returned). You definitely surprised me there. Now the 'why?' part of him being gone...yeah, I'm still trying to figure that out
. Very optimistically hoping for some sort of something to be available to try and they've taken him to prep for surgery/etc...but then again--why not talk to Lois first? For as long as she's waited at his side while he has been on life support, I can't imagine them not telling her. Unless, that is, something had to happen FAST--and at the moment it was happening.
I'll vote for Sam, Ellen, Bernie, that 'virtual goat'...any of them to not make it back in the box, if it keeps Clark alive. Gotta keep Clark alive. (I just really don't know how?...
).
Your evilness is quite impressive, DC--these cliffhangers (let alone everything Clark has gone through) has been quite a ride.

Who would take Clark? Does anyone other than the families know that CK=SM? Is it the government?

Nope. And Trask is dead.
