the kind of future you don't want to have ((future!verse))

It was midnight.

The perfect time for Dark Oak to be out hunting. There was no out at this time beside the ones she hunted anyway. They locked up the humans to control the streets. The Kandorians.

But they couldn't control her. She was the best one for the job when it came to an assassination, such as her goal for tonight. To get in and do the job without getting noticed and without leaving any trace of what happened.

One night at a time they attempted to reclaim their world. Tried to work against Zod and his army. And tried to reclaim the lives of thousands of innocent people.

And while she worked for a rebel team, Dark Oak still felt alone. Her heart felt heavy, ever since she and Clark got separated. Zod seemed determined in making Clark hurt... and Dark Oak did what she could to hurt Zod back.

The darkness was there again in her mind. And she had to take a moment to stop... and wait...

"They will be safe. They can start reclaiming other innocents." She watches as Oliver says his goodbye to Tess. "They can start trying to reclaim their lives. And mourn for what was lost."

"Hopefully everything will be undone soon. And none of this will have ever happened."

"It's because of me that so many died. The least I can do is do my best to make sure that everyone gets a second chance."

Shutting her eyes for a moment. April states one sentance very firmly. "You were not the only one who is at blame. Who let people die."

"You stood alone against Zod."

"Are you going to do it again?"

He wants to say yes. That it's his mistake, and he has to fix it. But he know she won't accept that. And there are some things he can't do this time. "Only if I have to. It's my mistake, but this time, everything is on Lois getting back to last year. She's going to need all of us to help."

"Oh joy... I get your blessing to help this time." It is her hurt and pain that speaks this time.

"Because Lois needs me. Not you."

"What did I do to be left behind? None of them accepted me."

"I wanted you to be safe. Zod would have used you against me if he'd known about you."

"Safe. Protected from or not exposed to danger or risk; not likely to be harmed or lost."

"I was still exposed to danger. To risk. I was still harmed. I am still lost."

"We were all lost."

"And now, Lois gets to save the day. That hurts too... I know it will change things. But right now, it hurts."

"I'd rather give you the chance to be free than stuck in that prison with me, and know that they would kill you." This isn't how he'd hoped this reunion would go. But then, a lot of things haven't exactly gone his way for a long time.

There is a chocked sob, and April turns to hold him to her. The pain of her heart spoke first. For the last year she had been living such a dark life. And the darkness got the better of her again. "I'm sorry. I should have seen this coming. I should have protected you."

Both of them are hurting, and there really is nothing that can fix this. Nothing except undoing the last year. But at least he can hold her, and hope that by sharing their pain, they can endure it. "It's not your fault."

She leans into him. Holding him feels so right in these dark times. He is her protector. Her comforter. Her strength. "I want this undone. I just want to be with you again."

"We have to get the Legion ring and send Lois back. No matter the cost." It's against everything he believes, his code of honor and his drive to keep everyone safe. But this time he has no choice. And the only thing that keeps him on this path is knowing that if they succeed, none of those lives will have been lost.

"Can I count on you to help me face Zod one last time?"

"Of course." After dealing with her hurt and pain, April feels a tug of other feelings for her husband. Of course love was always there. "When do we head into the heart of his territory?"

"As soon as Oliver's done, probably." Lois went to observe the burial of Tess, while Chloe took the opportunity to dig through Zod's belongings, and pocket some of the fruit from the elaborate and obscenely wasteful display of food. Both tasks seem to be drawing to a close.

"We can get into the city through one of the subway tunnels," Chloe says, coming to join them. "Most of them were caved in a long time ago, but we've been tunneling through. There's enough 'natural' kryptonite in the ground that the Kandorians leave it alone."

There is a part of her that wanted to be with him one last time, just in case this was their last mission. Just in case either of them met their end.

"Sounds good. Do we have our message that Lois will bring back?"

Clark feels the same. He just isn't sure if they have the time to spare. And if they have to travel by foot, or by being carried by her elementals, it may still take enough time that they will have to stop and rest.

"The solar tower," Clark says. "That's the key. She needs to make sure it never gets built. Without the tower, Zod has nothing."

"Then lets head out. It will be a long journey." April goes back into Dark Oak mode. That way, it is easier to think of the mission, instead of thinking of holding Clark.

"How long do your elementals last?" Clark asks as they head down to get Oliver and Lois, accompanied by the creatures.

"They can be active for a 24-hour period. Then the spell wears off."

"Convenient. I think they'll be a big help. Although when I go to face Zod, we might not be able to bring them with us." They can be used against Zod while the red sun remains, but as soon as Chloe takes down the tower, they'll be turned against him instead.

"No. Of course not. I think that by that time, the spell will be gone anyway. And it will just be you and him."
