Notes: I decided to start my long-term Chlollie project earlier than planned. In fact, I wanted to post it after finishing Stolen Future but I figured I could upload them both at the same time. However, my priority still goes to Stolen Future and that'll cause this story's updates to come slowly. I have at least five plot ideas for the sequels and I'll take my time to make it right. All I want is to improve my writing skills while giving you entertaining stories.

Let's start about the story. This is the first one of several, they'll be regrouped into a sage named 'Eternal Wrath'. 'Betrayal' is the very first one of my saga, it starts at the end of season seven of Smallville and will change season 8, 9 and 10; turning them into Chlollie focused 'seasons'. The ratings will always be T however, several chapters may contain intense violence or torture on characters. You will be warned before the chapter when it happens.



Last thing: The story takes place after the events of 7x20 Arctic. It follows the exact events of the first seven seasons of the show. There's only one difference: during 7x17 Sleeper, Chloe & Jimmy broke up because of their lack of trust (It'll be mentionned in flashbacks).



Eternal Wrath Volume 1 : Betrayal

'You have no idea what I'm capable of.' - Lex Luthor, Season 1, Episode 3: "Hothead"

Prologue

The orb had indicated the location of the Traveler's shelter. Lex Luthor and his team arrived in Arctic, in a small remote village a few miles close to the said-shelter.

Stepping out of the helicopter, Lex breathed the fresh air and let out a contented sigh. He was close to achieving his mission. The greatest mission a man could ever be charged of. He was going to save the Earth and there was only one way to do that.

He was going to kill the Traveler.

"Regan." called Lex

"Sir?" said Regan Matthews, the billionaire's right hand.

Lex sensed the alien piece in his hand quivering; he figured it was time to go.

"The orb's glowing." noticed the bald man. "If I am not back within the two next hours, send a team to the shelter and find me."

"What do you mean Mr. Luthor? I can't let you walk into the lion's den alone, it's suicide!"

"I'm going to save the world, Regan." replied Lex. "And if that means giving up my life, then I'm willing to."

"Let us come with you." tried to reason Matthews.

"I'll go alone!" hissed Lex. "Don't discuss my orders or I'll have to take a regrettable decision about you."

Knowing that his boss's menaces weren't blank, Regan didn't think about it twice and let Lex doing whatever he was going to do, even if it looked like suicide. After all, Lex Luthor survived two meteor showers, meteor-freak's almost daily attacks during seven years and a plane crash in the middle of the pacific ocean five years ago; So to him, going alone to an alien refuge lost in the middle of the Arctic continent was just another at the office.

As Regan walked a few steps away from him, Lex calmly examined the orb for several seconds. Noticing it was emitting a light blue colored ray, he sensed he could talk to it. It was a strange sensation but it was like the orb was calling him, telling him it was time.

Time to take down the world's greatest menace: the alien Traveler.

"Take me to the Traveler." ordered Lex to the orb.

At that moment, the alien sphere started glowing intensely and in a blinding flash, Lex Luthor disappeared under the eyes of the panicked villagers and his Luthorcorp team, leaving nothing but a thick smoke behind.

"Sir, yes sir…" deadpanned Regan as he saw the whole scene.
