Martha's return

[The Chris]

-Martha had returned from the Smalville hostipal only 2 day's ago. She was given an prosetic leg to replace the one she lost.
Martha was standing on a stool reaching for the top cupboard wen she reached too high and losed her balanched. As the stool from under her began to slip, it was only her luck that Conner walked into the kitchen to see what was happening. He quickly put is hand on the floor and created an telekinetic couchen on the floor wich really softened her fall. Sh hardly felt it.
"Oh thank you Conner!" Thank god you were here."
"Take it easy Mrs. Kent."
"Oh Conner, you full well know yo can call me M..."
Conner walked out the room before she could finished her sentence.

"Why are you here?"
Conner saw Clark doing same chor's on the farm.
"I used to live here. I can help my folk's out can't I?"
"Yeah. You can. Because I as doing such a wonderfull job takeing care of them!"
"Now Ko.., Conner. You should know that there taking care of you. And I, or anyone eles, doesn't blame you for Ma's exsitent."
"I'am leaving the farm Kal!
"What?! What's this al about Conner?!"
"I just think that I don't belong here. I'am intudeing. I nearly got your parent's killed. I don't deserve to be here!"
"Now now Conner. Our Clark brought you here for a reason, and we've never looked back. Your family weather you like it or not. What happened to Martha is not your fault more than it's the cattle's fault."
"I don't want to be Conner Pa. I was born a hero. Not a person. Clark was born a person, it's easier for him."
"No it's not. There is no such thing as being born a hero or a person, your born as your ownselve! Clark was born as both, because no matter what, it was fate for Clark to be a good person. You were born for a high perpuse too. But that doesn't mean you cant' take a step back to apprecaite life. Especailly if your saving it every day!"
"I'am leaving and that's fina...."
"Kon. Your going to stay to help out Ma and Pa. I am. At least stay for a few day's and give it some thought. Please?"
"I've already mad...."
Clark gave Conner a sharp ster;-
"Oh... all right!"

-After Kon and Kal returned from Nughtwing's funeral, they got right back into th chores. It was late and dark, but the 2 were doing up the barn.
"Conner. About you leaving. Please don't. I think you staying here for a good while will do you same, no wait, ALOT of good. These people made me the man I am today. Without them.... I don't know...."
There was a silence.
"I'am very proud of you Kon-El."
Conner smiled.
"Really?!"
"Definatly. Your twice the hero I was at your age. In few year's, who know's?!"
"Have y... >SIGH< have you ever done something stupid? You know, made an mistake?"
"Yeah! Of cource I have, and I still do today! Just this morning I broke Ma's coffee cup by slamming it down too hard. Don't know my own strength. Plus... when I was your age, me and Lana skipped school to see the opening for this new movie. We had a great time. But as we stepped out the thearte Ma and Pa were comeing out of the tool's shop across the street. You should of seen he look and thee faces!"
"No way?! You!? Skipp school!? And you came on down hard with me when I did it."
"Yeah and there was this one time when I wet down to the pond an......"

-Little did Clark and Conner know, Martha and Johnathen stood at the door of the barn listening to the 2.
"HA! I remeber that one Ma. The carpet is still staind!"
"Don't those 2 look so nice together Johnathen?!"
"Yeah. Those are our boy's!"

"And the stain is still in the carpet today!"
"That was you!? Mr. Goody Clark?! I thought it was part of the carpet's pattern!"
The 2 burst out laughting.

"Here Conner, take a break and eat this sandwich."
Kon was cleaning out the stables. He has been working all day since very early on in the morning. Clark too was doing the same, but he wasn't working as long or as hard as Kon. Johnahen was too busey looking after Martha. She was not use to her prosetic leg.
"Thank you." Kon said very quitely. He didn't even look up to see Martha or what sandwick she had made him
Ever since she came back from the hostipal Kon hasn't talked to Martha propolly. He was to ashamed. Even though no-one blames him, Kon felt a great deal of shame.

-Kon sat quietly and ate his sandwiche. He began thinking abot life when he suddnely flet a terriable feeling came over him. He felt so scared and lonely. He felt so un-wanted and small. He felt all the negative emotions he's ever felt in his whole life suddenly just cam over him all at once.
Kon couldn't think of a reason to live no more. He felt as though if he wasn't alive he would be better off. All Kon could think about was ending his pathetic LIFE. HE DIN'T DESERVE TO LIVE NO MORE. He didn't have a reason too.

-Suddenly Kon seen a gun on the table on the other side of the barn. He ran over to it. Every instinct in his body told hm to drop his teleknetic field and blow his brains out. Kon had felt this way before, put never like this before. He picked up the hand gun an held it to his temple and hasitatd. He began to cry very loudly out loud.
Kon doesn' know how, but suddnely he maneged to pull the gun away from his head. He still help it in his hand though.
"Ready to leave Conner? You'll be late!
"Yeah, Pa is right. Get your self down to San Fransico. The Teen Titans need's you."
Clark and Johnathen stood at the door of the stable. Kon looked at his hand and realised the gun was gone. And so was the thought of suiside. He didn't feel depresed, angry, alone, insecure, worthless or anythng like that now. He felt calm.
"Yeah sure!"
