Chapter 5 - 3 ton beam

An instant, the ceiling above them gave a mighty groan – cracking and sagging from the water damage. Lois didn't even have time to get a good look before the entire top floor of the shop came roaring down on their heads.

"LOOK OUT!" Clark's bellow could be heard over the roar of masonry and wood falling down.

Lois screamed and fell to the ground, covering her head with her arms and curling into the fetal position. Oh, my god! We're going to die…and I never told Jason…anything! Or Superman…

With what she was sure was to be her last breath, Lois breathed out a quite plea. "Superman!" Wood and debris rained down on her hitting her legs and arms. But just before she fainted from fright and the choking lack of breathable air – she peeked out from beneath her arms.

It's a hallucination!…was her last thought before something heavy struck her head. Her last vision(be it a hallucination or not) was of Clark Kent – kneeling over her, arms out to the sides bracing a three ton beam and half the floor of the store above – on his shoulders!
