Down in Smallville

Chapter 1: I hope this gets passed Chapter one

Chloe paced slowly up and down the corridor in front of the large gymnasium doors giving an occasional exasperated sigh each time she checked her watch. “Clark, only on time in life threatening situations” she said to herself.

“Someone say my name” a voice said only feet behind her causing her to nearly trip over herself.

‘Clark of course’ she thought, nobody else she knew kept popping out of nowhere. She turned around and gave Clark the best peeved off expression she could muster despite the summersaults her heart did every time she saw him; She wanted to kick herself for continuing to have a crush on the farm boy especially after what he did to her at the High school formal. They had become friends again, but that ended up bringing those lingering feelings back up to the surface.

Clark saw the different emotions sweep by her face as she turned around, he couldn’t bear to tell her that he was late because he had been helping Lana with her books.
Luckily she didn’t ask.

She turned to Clark while she unlocked the gym door “Did you bring the camera?” He rummaged through his bag for a moment then retrieved it “good then get ready for the torch’s annual documentation of all the science fair projects” she said feigning excitement while Clark couldn’t help smiling at the eccentric way she carried herself when she was bored.
***
Smallville high was known for its bizarre science fairs, after being told by Chloe just some of these oddities he was convinced she had seen it all, of course it had its volcanoes and potato batteries but what school doesn’t. I watched as Chloe wandered through the aisles marking down displays for the worthy mention column in the torch ‘something many school geeks fought to get on’ thought Clark amusingly. He couldn’t keep his mind on the displays he was taking pictures of, for some reason he always felt an attraction to Chloe when they had assignments together and had trouble keeping his eyes off her. Her quirks, personality traits, headstrong attitude and not to mention wardrobe, were all quite different from Lana’s. However my attraction to Lana was much stronger and didn’t end when she left the room.

Clark could here giggling from Chloe who was now on the opposite side of the gym, he crisscrossed through the many buzzing, smelling, fermenting, and yes even hissing projects till he reached her standing by the strangest contraption he had ever seen.

“Shrink Ray” Chloe said still stifling her giggles while she walked up to me. I glanced at the info the person had put on display, I understood two out of every five words in the text; he’s definitely not an idiot I figured. “There’s no name,” Chloe said coming around from the back now with her reporter curiosity emerging. We turned to the machine, which consisted of a base the size of an old amplifier with a bunch of knobs and buttons on it, and a ‘laser gun’ looking thing on top that had much simpler controls:

Shrink height: 3”
Shrink
Power

“Well that looks simple enough” Chloe said walking up to it, “I always thought all of Smallvilles weirdo’s had meteor powers, looks like some are delusional”.

She turned to me now with a devilish grin that seemed to entice a sense of recklessness in me, “you wanna try it?” she said, I tried to pretend as though such a thought was irresponsible but my smile gave me away and I stepped in front of the machine. ‘If there was a dangerous fault in the machine it couldn’t hurt me… could it?’ I thought as she turned it on.

“All systems go?” she said looking at me clearly not taking any of this seriously, I guess I found that comforting. I gave the thumbs up. What happened next took less then two seconds.

Flash! - Chloe jumps back, heat in my chest
Flash! - Eyes role back everything blurry
Flash! - Hot to cold to nothing…

I collect myself rather fast once my eyesight returns but feel misplaced, ‘something isn’t right-‘ “CLARK!”

My brain, which is still coping with the disorientation, the sound, and the fear, can’t even begin to comprehend the two pick-up sized Doc Martins in front of me… I blackout.

***
I nearly scream as I see the thing scrambling around near me feet. Having experience with the mice that seem to get in the house every year, I instinctively remove my right shoe…hop down onto my knees…aim…

Wait! (Common sense kicks in) ‘Shrink ray-Clark-tiny thing’ “OMG!”

Down in Smallville

Chapter 2

{Opening Credits}

“Mrs. Sullivan! What is going on in here?” Mr. Price the school Guard/Janitor yelled approaching me from the opposite side of the gym with a ‘are you up to no good’ expression.

I got up with Clark firmly in hand, “Uh… Nothing sir!” ‘Think Chloe think’

“Why were you on the floor? What’s that in your hand?” Even in my panic I couldn’t believe how nosy this guy got sometimes, “I was... just...” ‘Aw crap no pockets’ “Fixing my insole! It keeps sliding out” with no other options left I slid Clark into the shoe I was holding resigning him to its heat, smell, and darkness.

*********************************************Clark P.O.V

I had come to while in Chloe’s tight grasp reeling with both disbelief and horror as I starred up at her, a giantess. The familiarity of being larger then her moments before was so vivid in my memory that this alien view scared me more the anything else I had ever seen. I had probably been the strongest man on earth, now Chloe’s sweaty palm threatened to crush me.

I lay still as I heard Mr. Parker yelling from somewhere over the looming projects. ‘Come on Chloe think of something’ thought Clark, last thing I need is national attention as the worlds first shrunken person.

“-Fixing my insole! It keeps sliding out” her voice said echoing through both the gym and my head. It’s not that I didn’t understand where she was going with that but I seemed to have blocked it out till those last few seconds of fresh air.

Bringing me down to the opening she stayed with the illusion simply shoving me in as she would an insole. The smell was more powerful than I could imagine, it was like being in a vinegar factory with many other smells rushing into my nostrils as well. The air around me seemed to blur and warp with heat as it felt as though I had entered a sauna.

The moment I hit the spongy insole my world shifted as she tipped her shoe, sliding me down its slick surface. My back hit the toe section with her foot following close behind, stealing what little light was left; I was scooped up underneath her toes as she maneuvered me into the crevice with my face beneath her second toe. I tried struggling as the rubbery flesh of her giant boulder-like toes began pressed me down into the insole bringing up a pool of acidic sweat around me, as the shoe began moving at a sickening pace.

********************************************Chloe P.O.V

I could feel him in there, right under my toes; I walked down the hallway experiencing the most bizarre feeling you could imagine. It wasn’t only the feeling of having a tiny living thing huddled under your toes, or the anxiety I felt fearing I could kill my best friend with a single accidental slip; But that Clark, who’d been my secret crush for years was with me, under me, and dependent on me.

“Chloe!” a voice called, I turned around and saw Lana running to catch up.

“Have you seen Clark? He was supposed to come help me after you guys were done.” She asked, worry written all over her face.

‘Of course she’s worried he’s never late for Lana’ she thought spitefully and then replied, “He said he had to go home, something urgent must have came up.” ‘The only reason he volunteered to help me after school was because he’d be able to help Lana, typical’ she thought unconsciously giving Clark a little squeeze.

“Well then I’ll be home a little later then” she said trying to hide her disappointment, she turned and walked back.

‘Aw… Poor little miss perfect’ Chloe thought devilishly continuing to walk to her car.

Chloe felt justified about not telling Lana about Clark, ‘the less people know the better’.
After all if she told her Lana would probably think it would be better if she were in-charge of Clark.

As I got into my car I began to take notice of just how comfortable Clark felt under my toes; It didn’t feel bad like having a pebble in your shoe, it felt natural. I decided to keep him in there till I got home as punishment, thinking back to what Lana had said.

As I pulled out of the school parking lot I hoped that I’d get the chance to do this over the weekend; since the only way to un-shrink Clark would be to find the person who’d built the machine and get him to undo it after the show on Monday, but I doubt Clark would ever wanna go back in.


**Shack on the other side of town**************************Karen P.O.V

Karen fumbled with the lock that was on her cage, it was small and cheap but she was to small to take it off. She turned briefly looking at her best friend Adriana who’s bruised and battered body laid motionless in the corner.

THUMP...THUMP

Karen burst into tears instantly as she heard the sounds of her tormentors return.

{Commercial brake}



Yes that last part begins the plot :).
I’m finding it difficult to stick to Clark’s character but I think I’m doing ok with the rest.
Sorry for the lack of action in this chapter, I’ll try to make it up in the next one, which should be after Christmas hopefully (got an exam to study for)
