In a bustling classroom, a group of students couldn't help but snicker as a 16-year-old boy slumped over his desk, fast asleep. Ms. Johnson, the teacher, stood at the front of the room, her voice firm and authoritative. "Clark Kent!"
Clark's head jerked up, and he quickly adjusted his glasses, which had slipped down his nose. "Oh, eh, eh?" he muttered, looking around the room in confusion, his eyes bleary from sleep.
The classroom erupted in laughter, and Clark's face turned bright red as he realized what had happened. "I'm sorry, I fell asleep... heh..." he said, trying to play it cool, but his embarrassment was evident.
Ms. Johnson sighed, her expression stern. "This is the third time this week, Clark. If you keep falling asleep in class, I'll have to call your parents."
Clark's eyes widened in alarm, and he held up his hands in a defensive gesture. "No, no, I'm fine, I won't do it again!" he said quickly, trying to reassure his teacher.
The teacher let out a deep sigh and said, "Then stay awake, Clark."
Clark nodded vigorously, relieved that the conversation was over. Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of school. Clark let out a silent sigh of relief as he gathered his things and stood up, grateful to be done with the day's classes.
As he filed out of the classroom with his classmates, Clark couldn't help but feel a sense of relief wash over him. He was looking forward to getting home and relaxing, and putting the embarrassment of the day behind him.
He strolled calmly down the school hallway, weaving past the other students with a quiet confidence. He ignored the curious glances and chatter of his peers, instead reaching into his pocket to retrieve his phone. He plugged in a pair of headphones and slipped them over his ears, the soft beats of his favorite song filling his ears. With a subtle nod to himself, he walked out of the school.
He made his way down the streets of Smallville, the music providing a soothing background hum as he walked. The familiar sights and sounds of the small town seemed to fade into the background as he lost himself in the rhythm and melody.
Clark strolled calmly along, the music in his ears providing a soothing background hum. He subtly nodded his head to the rhythm, his eyes fixed on the screen of his cell phone as he scrolled through his options. "I think maybe I'll go buy something to eat..." he thought to himself, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
Suddenly he stood up in his place, took out an earphone from his ear and muttered "what the hell...?"
He pulled out a small, rectangular object from his pocket, a memento from his ship that had brought him to Earth. His father had once told him the truth about his origins, their conversation had been a turning point in their relationship. Luckily, nothing bad had come of it, and his father's love and acceptance had remained unwavering. Clark was still his son, and always would be. The small object, with its sleek black surface and silver accents, was all he had found in the ship's wreckage, but he kept it with him as a reminder of his heritage, just in case.
Clark's eyes widened as he stared at the object in his hand. It was a small, sleek device that seemed to be emitting a faint hum. He had never seen it do anything like this before, and he wasn't sure what it meant.
Clark quickly scanned his surroundings and walked towards a nearby alley, checking again to make sure he was alone. He looked at the object in his hand and muttered, "Now what? This thing never did this before..."
Suddenly, the rectangular object began to float in the air, and a holographic screen appeared, glowing with a ominous red light. Clark felt a bad feeling wash over him as words began to appear on the screen. At first, the language was incomprehensible to Clark, but it quickly shifted to a language he could understand.
"Infiltration successful, target located, modifying object..."
Clark's eyes widened in confusion and alarm as he stared at the screen. "What the hell...?" he muttered, his mind racing with questions.
Without hesitation, Clark vanished in a burst of speed, his enormous velocity propelling him out of the alley and into the surrounding countryside. He stopped running in a distant forest on the outskirts of Smallville, his chest heaving with exertion.
He looked at the object in his hand, his mind still reeling from the sudden revelation. "Wait...I don't think they're coming for me right...?" he muttered, a sense of unease creeping over him.
But then his thoughts turned to his parents, and his expression changed to one of alarm. "Dad...Mom...SHIT!" he screamed, his voice echoing through the forest. He squeezed his legs tightly and launched himself into the air, the ground splitting apart beneath him as he took off.
The sound of air splitting was heard as Clark flew through the sky, his speed incredible. He was headed towards his home, his heart racing with worry and fear for his parents. "The ship...DAMN IT!!" he shouted, his mind filled with a sense of desperation.

In the vast and endless expanse of space, stars twinkled and shone like diamonds against the inky blackness. Amidst the infinite void, a massive black ship with gray tones loomed, its size rivaling that of a large building. A large window on the ship's hull framed a figure, a man clad in technological battle armor, gazing out at the stars.
His blue-black eyes were cold and calculating, radiating an aura of authority and power. Suddenly, a holographic display flickered to life behind him, casting an otherworldly glow on the walls. The man turned to face the hologram, his eyes scanning the incomprehensible words and symbols that danced across its surface.
He approached the hologram, his movements economical and deliberate. A red dot on the display caught his attention, and he muttered, "So it's already activated... Jor-El's plan has been set in motion. Too bad, but oh well. His son has been sent to this place... interesting..."
The man's eyes gleamed with interest as he studied the hologram, which displayed a location in the vast expanse of space. He smiled, a cold, calculating smile. "Although it will take me several years to reach this place... perhaps a little more than a decade... or maybe a little less... but I'm eager to see what Jor-El's son is like..."
As he spoke, the hologram flickered and changed, displaying a series of images and data streams. The man's eyes scanned the information, his expression unreadable.
"Ah, yes," he said, his voice dripping with satisfaction. "Kal-El. And he is indeed on the planet Earth. How... fascinating."
The man's gaze turned back to the window, and he stood there for a moment, lost in thought. The stars twinkled and shone outside, and the ship's engines hummed softly in the background.
Finally, the man turned back to the hologram, his eyes burning with intensity. "Set a course for Earth," he said, his voice low and commanding. "I want to see this Kal-El for myself."
The hologram beeped in response, and the ship's engines roared to life. The man's eyes gleamed with anticipation as he watched the stars blur and distort outside the window, and the ship hurtled through the vast expanse of space towards its destination.

Clark flew swiftly through the skies, his fists clenched forward as he accelerated. A sonic boom sounded, and he flew even faster, stopping in a few seconds to survey the scene below. He let out a sigh of relief as he saw that the farm was intact.
He slowly floated to the ground, his eyes fixed on the barn where his ship was stored. He approached with cautious steps, his gaze locked on the rectangular object. The holographic screen was still standing, the same message displayed: nothing had been changed.
Clark walked in front of the barn door and opened it, revealing an empty interior. Everything was intact.
He heard the sound of the house door opening and turned around to see his father, Jonathan, emerging from the house. Jonathan looked at Clark in the distance and called out, "You're back earlier than usual!"
Clark smiled, but his expression quickly turned to concern. He walked away from the barn and, in a flash, appeared beside his father. "Something's going to happen, be caref--"
Before he could finish, an explosion rocked the barn, sending the door flying off its hinges and soaring into the air. Clark's eyes widened as he felt another chill run down his spine. He watched in horror as a metallic humanoid being emerged from the barn.
The robot was enormous, standing at least 8 feet tall. Its long arms resembled knives, and its spherical head was covered in red eyes that darted back and forth like insects crawling quickly. Its legs were humanoid, but each foot had only three toes. The robot moved its eyes, ignoring Jonathan and fixing its gaze on Clark.
"Dad, go get Mom and get out of here quickly...this is gonna get ugly, really ugly," Clark said hastily to his father, who replied, "Okay, be careful, son!" Jonathan quickly entered the house to fetch Martha.
Clark vanished in a flash and reappeared a few meters in front of the robot. The robot stared at him for a few seconds, while Jonathan and Martha quickly left the house and made a beeline for their car. Clark heard his father start the engine, but the robot didn't budge, still fixed on Clark. Jonathan drove off, and they quickly left the scene. Clark let out a sigh of relief and said, "Okay...who sent you? Obviously, someone sent you, right?"
The robot just stared at him, its voice laced with static, "Kal-El...I'm here to...eliminate you." Clark sighed and muttered, "That's all I need..."
He disappeared in a flash, and a punch materialized in front of the robot's face. Clark hit it with such force that an explosion sounded, sending the robot flying through the barn. Clark examined his hand and noticed it was bleeding slightly, "Blood...this is gonna be complicated."
Suddenly, Clark's eyes widened in surprise as he saw a large, sharp object hurtling towards him in slow motion, his exceptional reaction speed allowing him to perceive the threat in vivid detail. He quickly ducked down, avoiding the attack by a hair's breadth, and saw that one of the robot's arms had transformed into a razor-sharp blade. Clark didn't hesitate, grabbing one of the robot's legs and launching himself into the air with incredible force. He soared into the sky, the air seeming to tear apart from the sheer velocity of his ascent.
"Alright, friend! This is gonna be my first real battle! I need to show off!" Clark exclaimed with a grin, flying towards a nearby forest. He squeezed the robot's leg hard and hurled it with incredible force, producing a sonic boom. The robot crashed into the ground, destroying trees and terrain around it.
Clark flew back down to the ground, landing easily. The robot stood up, its arms morphing into human-like limbs, "Okay...that's a little unexpected," Clark said with a smile, clenching his fists tightly.
"Come on, WALL-E!!" Clark shouted with a grin. The robot vanished in a flash, and Clark gritted his teeth as he shot off like a rocket, crashing into several trees.
Clark crashed to the ground, wincing as he examined his bleeding arms. He sprang up, his gaze locked on the robot with human-like arms and a metallic sheen. Clark let out a sigh and said, "Okay...I think it's time to give it my all. I hope you don't give up, eh!"
Clark coiled his legs and declared, "Okay, here I go!"
He vanished in a flash, leaving behind a shattered patch of ground and a sonic boom that tore through the air. Clark moved at incredible velocity, breaking the sound barrier dozens of times. He struck the robot with a crushing blow to the head, sending nearby trees flying and the ground cracking apart. But to Clark's surprise, the robot didn't crumple; instead, it flew away, only to suddenly halt mid-air. "It's flying...?" Clark muttered, stunned.
The robot disappeared in a burst of speed and reappeared in front of Clark. He hastily raised his arms to defend himself, but a powerful blow sent him flying. The air was torn apart as Clark soared for hundreds of meters, destroying a swath of trees. He crashed to the ground but quickly sprang up, dodging a knee strike from the robot that shattered the earth and sent cracks radiating outward. Clark launched a swift axe kick at the robot's head, but its arm blocked the attack just in time. The robot's other arm grabbed Clark's leg and hurled him to the ground. "Arrghh!!" Clark growled in pain as the robot began to slam him against the ground with incredible force.
The earth trembled beneath them, and Clark's growls of pain grew louder. "Let me go...LET ME GO!!" he screamed, his eyes blazing with a fierce intensity. Suddenly, his eyes began to glow crimson, and the air around them started to heat up. Twin beams of intense heat vision shot out of Clark's eyes, striking the robot with incredible force and sending it flying. Clark collapsed to the ground, covering his eyes with his hand. "Damn...it hurts a little."
He floated in the air, slowly removing his hand from his eyes as his vision returned to normal. "Heat vision...ha...what a good time to appear, right?!"
Clark landed softly on the ground and said, "Okay...round 2, robot!"
In a flash, the robot reappeared before Clark at incredible velocity. Clark grinned, narrowly avoiding a swift punch from the robot, and swiftly countered with a powerful kick to its chest. The robot shot upwards, and Clark followed, soaring into the sky with ease. He clenched his fist with all his might and declared, "Take this!" Clark's fist connected with the robot's chest, unleashing a massive explosion that rocked the sky, dispersing the clouds in mere seconds. The robot's chest appeared dented, and its eyes darted erratically without stopping.
Clark grinned, grabbing the robot's arm and saying, "Okay, dude! Time for an unforgettable trip!"
He flew through the sky at breakneck speed, his grip on the robot's arm tightening as he began to descend rapidly. With a burst of strength, Clark lifted the robot up and hurled it towards the ground. But in a shocking turn of events, the robot suddenly halted its fall and began to fly towards Clark with incredible speed. Clark clicked his tongue in annoyance and clenched his fists tightly.
He closed his eyes, and the veins near his eyes began to glow red, slowly at first. Heat emanated from Clark's eyes in a constant stream. He opened his eyes in an instant, and two lasers with an enormous temperature struck the robot in less than a second, sending it crashing into the forest below. Clark quickly closed his eyes and muttered, "I need to get better with this, even though I've only used it twice..."
Clark opened his eyes again and floated into the forest, his gaze fixed on the spot where the robot had fallen. The robot began to rise, its systems rebooting. "Error, threat with recommended, activate killing mode!" it announced.
Suddenly, a substance similar to mercury began to flow out of the robot, covering its body completely and altering its shape. A few seconds later, the robot had transformed into a new form, its height remaining the same but its body now more robust and stocky. It resembled a silver robot hulk.
The robot gazed at Clark with the same expression and declared, "Eliminate, Kal-El..."
The robot charged towards Clark, its movements swift and deadly. Clark simply smiled and clenched his fists, flying directly towards the robot. "Ok, let's finish this Terminator!" he shouted.
They collided with incredible force, and Clark grabbed the robot by the stomach, slamming him into several trees. Clark roared as he lifted the robot up with all his strength, flying into the sky. The robot clenched his fists tightly and struck Clark's back with a powerful blow, causing Clark to grunt in pain. Clark flew even faster into the sky, shouting, "Ok buddy! Time for the grand finale!"
As they descended towards the ground at breakneck speed, the robot unleashed a flurry of punches, each one creating sonic booms from the enormous force exerted. Clark struggled to resist, but ultimately released the robot.
In a distant forest, two points of impact began to fall from the sky, crashing into the forest floor and causing the ground to shake for several seconds.
Clark stood up from the crater, touching his bleeding back and wincing in pain. "Haha...that really hurts, huh..." he muttered with a pained smile. "I never thought I'd use all my strength today, and against a robot, too."
The robot emerged from another nearby crater, moving towards Clark once more. Clark knew he had to act fast, or else unwanted attention would arrive. "I better do something fast, or else some really annoying people will come..."
Clark began to float in the air, his eyes slowly glowing a deep crimson color. "Ok, Terminator, time to finish this for real this time!" he declared.
The robot charged towards Clark with incredible speed, and Clark prepared himself for the final confrontation. He flew towards the robot with great speed, his fists clenched and his eyes glowing even brighter red.
