Oh, this was fascinating... poor Kara. (And how prescient of her mother to name her that!) There were a few unclear bits -- at first it seemed like this was Clark's first visit (actually, for a bit there, I wasn't even sure if it was Clark or Jonathan) but then she was reacting like he'd visited before, so I was a bit confused.

And how did he locate her? Investigate all the pregnancies in Metropolis & Smallville at the proper times and then watch the possibles? That'd be a lot of work, though if anyone could do it, it would be Lane & Kent. Or just keep an ear out for tales of mysteriously-started fires? Also a lot of work...

This really is a good premise -- we could get a *lot* of good stories along these lines. Actually, this could work in a story idea I abandoned years ago... but I can't think about that until I finish some other things.

Anyway, good job -- another quietly emotional vignette, which seem to be one of your specialties.
