We're in for some shocks here. Hope everyone is up to taking them!

Terry,
I had completely forgotten about Lana's mom. Nice to have closure on that front and that it also helped Clark know that be was ready to move on.
Nearing the end of the road and just a few loose ends to tie up.
Excellent!

Sorry about the double post. My BBerry hiccupped.

Well, I think I had missed that Lex died the same day Clark and Rebecca broke up. That just ups the drama.
I was hoping for Lois and Clark scenes, but I guess it makes sense that she is in the police station.
We have not even had them conversing telepathically for a long time.
I guess the whole Lana scenes were needed by Clark. I also enjoyed his conversation with his parents.

So glad there was closure for Lana's Mother. As always, Clark came in at just the right time!
Now it is time for everyone to move on with their lives.
Clark's going to have to wait for Lois to get over the shock of Lex's murder, but together, they will find a way to deal with the grief.
When is the next post?

Time for another chapter, which means I get to post feedback on all y'all's feedback. (That word "y'all's" is spelled correctly, by the way.)
Ken, I put that part in because I hate loose ends dangling, and "Clarkie's" former mother-in-law was tantalizing me. I didn't want another tragedy in the Lang family, and I also wanted to show Clark saving someone without using his powers. On top of that, the conversation was cathartic for him, too. Glad you liked it, and Clark's talk with his parents.
John, it's interesting that you'd point out that they haven't been mind-speaking lately. That will be explained in a later chapter, and in fact they're going to do some of that very soon.
Morgana, glad you liked this part. Yes, even though Lois didn't love Lex like he wanted her to love him, his death was a shock, along with her reaction to the murder and the time at the police station. We'll see more along those lines in the next part.
Which is coming up very soon!

They will be mind speaking. This is good. I have to say I liked that Clark saved his mother-in-law without using any powers. I also will insist on calling her that even though his wife is dead.

Please. Please do not let Lois lose her powers!

Wow, Terry.
All the drama and violence of part 14, followed by part 15 with the lovely seen between Clark and Lana's mum. Great balance.
Corrina.
