Discovered by a local couple, Clark was raised by his loving adoptive parents, Jonathan and Martha Kent from a young boy to a young man. While the circumstances of his adoption were a closely guarded secret, they were not the only signs that Clark was different from a normal boy. From a young age, he showed strength far exceeding his size and speed that actually made it impossible to watch the mischievous toddler without him literally disappearing in the blink of an eye. At the age of sixteen, when Clark experienced his first kiss, he found himself on cloud nine, and not figuratively, as he discovered his ability to fly. With these extraordinary abilities came responsibility, and Jonathan and Martha both worked hard to instill that into Clark. That responsibility kicked in when mysterious happenings around Smallville began to be linked to radiation from the meteors fifteen years earlier. People were waking up with strange abilities and lacking the same guidance the Kents had bestowed upon their adoptive son. Realizing the link between the meteors and these ability-endowed people, Clark took it upon himself to stop them and became something of a local, though incognito, vigilante. When Clark was fourteen, he crossed paths with an orphaned young boy by the name of Ryan, who like Clark possessed a hidden ability. It was eventually decided that the Kents would take Ryan in and so Clark gained an adoptive brother. A year later, the Kents were surprised with another blessing as Martha became pregnant, giving birth nine months later to a healthy baby girl, Jessica Sarah Kent. As Clark reached graduation, the weight of his secret and the lack of knowing where he came from gave him decision paralysis regarding where to move onto next in life. A lengthy discussion with his parents eventually gave way to a gap year and eventually, a move where he relocated to Metropolis, achieving a degree in journalism alongside his best friend, Chloe Sullivan. Like his time in Smallville, Metropolis was filled with encounters with the strange and bizarre, where Clark became known as an urban protector by the moniker 'The Blur'. But Clark struggled to hold down any job after university, the burden of his abilities always calling him to help where he could. Confused about his place in the world, Clark turned his sights towards the stars, determined to discover where he came from and why he was sent to Earth. Two year later, Clark returned from the stars, re-establishing himself in Metropolis before being subbed 'Superman' by the Daily Planet. Finding himself a job with the media conglomerate, Clark began to blend back into life on Earth with a renewed sense of purpose and better grasp on his identity.[/indent][/COLOR] [INDENT][sub][sup][sub][h3][b][color=black] P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S )[/color] [color=lightgray]P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S )[/color][/b][/h3][/sub][/sup][/sub][/INDENT][sup]__________________________________________________________________________________[/sup] [COLOR=DARKGRAY][INDENT]This is a version of Clark that I've never seen told before. A younger iteration, this is a Clark fresh out of Smallville, but where other versions knew they were Kryptonian, or at the very least had the ship to guide them or the crystal to make the Fortress of Solitude, this Clark was found among the wreckage by Jonathan and Martha, but no truth to his actual heritage has ever been known. As such, my story picks up with Clark taking to the stars to figure out who he is. He has a basic grasp on his abilities, and he's done some heroic stuff, earning his local alter ego a place on Chloe's Wall of Weird under the moniker 'the Blur, ' but he's not Superman. He still has a lot to learn both about how to control his abilities and the extent of them. To do so, and to find out who he is and where he came from, Clark is taking to the stars, where I'll explore the themes of the Last Son of Krypton learning about who he is through the eyes and experiences of the galaxy before he ultimately discovers the fate of Krypton and his purpose on Earth.[/INDENT][/COLOR][/cell][/row][/table][sub]__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________[/sub][right][color=silver][sup][i]"I believe in truth, justice and dignity for all."[color=2e2c2c]___[/color][/i][/sup][/color][/right][/COLOR][/INDENT]
