Clark, who was still awestruck by the fact that Chloe took it apon herself to, not only change his name but get him hired for a job without his consent. "Whoa Whoa Whoa, let me get this straight.... you got me hired....to be a janitor? I don't know if you remember me telling you, that my reporter days were over after high school, let alone an investigative reporter... I don't even know if i can do all of that..." Clark looked at the pile of equipment in front of him then at CHloe, who seemed to be paying no attention to him what so ever but was once again typing away at her computer. "Have you lost your mind?"

"Its in the family Genes to be crazy... you know that" Chloe paused from her research and looked at him. "Just look at Lois. I'm well aware, Clark, that you are in fact interested in journalism... I can keep a secret Clark, but Lois can't, she told me about what you said to her on graduation, about having it 'grow on you'. This is a chance to prectice your skills, we all know your going to need a secret identity job one day, and it shouldn't be working on a farm. You have no night life Clark, and I'm sure your mom will understand. You normally come here when your bored anyway, so now you have something to look forward to at night... besides it will only be for a few days. Wouldn't you rather be investigating then picking up cow poop and chicken feathers?"

Gazing out at the spectacular view from Lex's helicopter, Lana couldn't help but sigh with content. Looking over at her lover, she felt happy knowing that she could share anything with him and that she could trust him entirely.
"Sir, we have 15 min til landing."

 "Thanks steve" Lex replied thru the com system, he looked at lana smilling and placing a gentle arm around her shoulder, showing her the more pleasant parts of Gotham as they sailed by.
However he failed (or more than likely neglected) to show her Arkham, a rather disturbing place nothing like Bellereve in metropolise. Arkam was more for the criminaly deraged.
as they made to touch down Lex had to do a double take, "well I wonder why he's here" he said out loud.

"Who is that?" He stood tall and confident. Dressed in a nice romani suit, a sign of high class, the man waited for them to land. For some strange reason the familiar feeling of trouble entered Lana as she looked out the window and back at Lex who seemed deep in thought.

Lex came out of distraction at the question from his love. "That is Bruce Wayne" he said, "we knew each other thru boarding school, and some fundraising balls, just didn't expect him to be here and now" he looked at the slight concern on Lana's face, "he's a nice guy, kind of reserved" he smilled, "don't worry about it" he helped her out of the Helicopter and they headed to where Bruce was standing.
"Surprised to see you here Bruce" lex said offering his hand, "didn't expect a welcoming from Gotham's elite, especially since I didn't make it aware when and how we would be arriving. This is Lana Lang, we will both be at the ball you are hosting, and visiting the institue if that is alright"

"Nice to meet you Ms. Lang." Turning to Lex,"I saw your name on the guest list for the gala. Had to see for myself that it wasn't a typo from my secretary." Bruce turned motioning towards his limo. "I thought I might give you a lift."

Lex looked at lana, then back to bruce, "actually we were going to the institute quickly just to see how preliminary tests were going in the research wing" he replied, "thanks for the offer though"

Chloe sat, exausted, at her desk messaging her temples to keep herself focused. She stared at the computer not taking a in a word of the information on the page she had up. She closed the existing page and brought another page containg a short Biography of Bruce Waynes life. Something on this page caught her eye. Bruce's parents were murdered when he was a young boy... something she hadden't read in any of the other biographies she had read.

 Olson whatched from affar for a few minutes, Clark has left as quickly as he had come in, and Jimmy still didn't know how he got there, and why Chloe didn't say he was comming. She looked tired, well beyond that, and that how it was at the Planet. You work till you fell asleep at your desk sometimes... he came over with a cup of coffee for her. "How's the research comming anything interesting?" he asked

Chloe jumped when she heard Jimmy's voice break the deathly silence. she rubbed her right eye and gave her head a quick scratch.
"Thanks your a life saver" she said gripping the some what fresh coffee she knew he got from the lounge. "I have basically been reading this thing up and down. Though i just uncovered something interesting, something that i haden't found in my other dedicated hours... Bruce Wayne, I'm assuming you know who he is, was actually orphaned when he was really young. The only reason why this caught my attention is that his parents were almost virtually disappeared in all his other biographies. This is the only one that actually says that they were murdered. He was practically raised by his Butler and it seems like he had spent a lot of time with the Renard family... though I'm not quite sure who they are.... I've been trying to dig deeper into this... but Bruce Wayne seems to know which strings to pull to keep his private and background life secure."

"Malcom Renard?" Jimmy said and smilled, "oh you wouldn't find that family in news clippings." As Chloe looked at him in slight confusion, "what? I can be something other than a good photographer can't I?" he joked. He reached around and opened up a web browser, "the Renard's own one of the leading aeronautic research establishments known in the States. They deal mostly with NASA, they created several high powered telescopic satelites..." he finished his search and nodded Chloe to look at the screen. "they also help to found the Gotham institute for the blind" he read it aswell, "seems they have a member on the staff aswell...K. Renard wonder what the 'K' stands for"

Chloe looked at Jimmy in astonishment. "Wow Jim, your like my own private encyclopedia. That saved me time from google." She looked at the web browser for a minute. "So Renard founded the institute? hm... so the plot thickens. Being Renard is another one of Gothams finest, I presume. He is most likely going to be at the benefit... hm... I'll definatly have to snag an interview with him." She turned to Jimmy. "Thanks, but i just have to ask. How did you find out so much about Renard. Also if Renard founded the building, why is Wayne so involved with its productions. I mean I have looked at statistic after statistic and the public makes it seem like Wayne built it with his own two hands!"
