Chapter One "Expanding the Family."

Six weeks, almost seven passed since the events of the Zod invasion. It was getting close to two months that disappeared into the annals of time, when everything changed and said changes were not for the better. The people of the planet Earth picked up the pieces although the scars could be felt as there were many people who died.

Many people disappeared during that time and there were many unanswered questions. The question that resounded in the minds of many people was a simple one.

"Where was Superman?"

That was what they all wanted to know, Superman left shortly after the Zod Invasion and vanished. Clark Kent was still at the Daily Planet for now but Tonks could not keep up that charade forever. Every single moment passed like a tick on the clock and the voice of G. Gordon Godfrey continued drill like an ever present and fairly annoying tick.

"And I tell you, on the eve of the talks of the Vigilante Registration Act being debated by Congress, as if there should be any debate, the Justice League is back up and running. Do we not learn from the mistakes? The Watchtower was taken down by Zod, before he was, and that was his ever lasting contribution for the planet. The aliens continue to run free, being able to come and go from this planet as they please."

Godfrey clicked his tongue before he offered another statement, choosing his next words carefully.

"My friends and fellow human beings, is this something that we should allow? These heroes, they have caused many deaths. And how many of these so called super villains will be around if it wasn't for people like Batman or Superman. Just consider it, and consider that cesspool in Gotham City known as Arkham Asylum. How many of the Asylum's citizens would be there and would be insane had it not been for the Dark Knight? The answer is not that many."

Godfrey continued with Karen walking across the hallways of the Birds of Prey main facility/the temporary Watchtower in the heart of Metropolis. She passed Black Canary and Huntress in the hallway, greeting them with smiles.

"So, we're good to go?" Dinah asked Karen as she shifted in trepidation.

"Yeah, we're good to go," Karen offered as she clicked on the ear piece. "Oracle, what's your status?"

"The same as it always was, and Intergang Version Four or is it Five, is trying to make their move on Metropolis in Superman's absence," Hermione responded over the communication link. "And the absence of Supergirl and Arcane, they think that they can step in and take control. A new day, the same old s..."

"Harry and Kara might be an extended sabbatical but Supergirl and Arcane are still here."

Laura Kent, the girl who was trapped in the Phantom Zone for twenty years, from Earth Prime, who had the memories of a Kara Zor-El that was wiped from existence, took a bold step forward. She dressed in a white top with a red "S' sketched on it in a silver shield. The half shirt showcased her midriff, and one could move down to see the white and black skirt on her legs, along with the blue knee high boats. The red handband with the Kryptonian writing that translated into "Supergirl" stretched around her head.

Then Linda Danvers, the Kara Zor-El of the Justice Lords Universe, popped up. Her hair was darkened slightly, but it still had streaks of blond in it. She wore a black cape, with a green top with the "A" on it in a red and gold shield that stretched over her C-Cup breasts. She wore the same white skirt that she always did, that showed her legs and white stockings with no shoes or boots present.

"Ah, I thought I was going to call dibs on Arcane," Galatea said with a playful whine.

"Don't worry, you can be Matrix," Linda commented dryly as she looked back Galatea.

"How about no?" Galatea stated as she joined her two fellow blondes in turning to Karen who looked over them appraisingly.

"We are good to go," Karen added, a smile crossing her face. Harry and Kara were off trying to uncover the mysteries of the Flamebird Entity, but they would be returning in due time.

Barbara Gordon, better known as Batgirl, turned up to greet the group with a bright smile on her face.

"All of you look great," Barbara stated in a pleased voice and two former reformed villainesses popped in to join them.

"Yeah because looks are everything,"

This comment came from Claire Selton, better known as Volcana, another member of the group known as the Birds of Prey showed up. She turned, her brown eyes watching them, with her red hair tied back in a ponytail. She wore a red top that stretched down to her stomach and tight red pants. "I prefer action."

Pamela thought that old habits died hard, it was easy to take out all of these people who harmed Mother Earth but she decided that there were far more interesting ways to achieve justice. She had to work to gain the trust of the team, but she supposed that was something that was going to be one step at a time.

"And Intergang is working to get their hands on a special herbicide that they can weaponize," Oracle stated through the communication link and Pamela clenched her teeth with a murderous glint appearing in her eyes.

"Now it's personal," Pamela stated but then she saw the eyes of everyone on her. "Not that it wasn't personal before."

"Of course it wasn't," Galatea commented dryly but there were other things to do. They hadn't had much to do, things had been oddly quiet since the Zod invasion, although she wondered if it was some calm before the storm.

They almost waited for the other shoe to drop, whatever that other shoe might be. Carefully, they all stayed a certain course, although it was almost all of the heroes were walking on eggshells. They had to do everything in secret, so to not have it be in the news. And there were many cases of television cameras and regular cameras shorting out. It was all to keep the activities of the heroes under the rug and away from the prying eyes of the people around them. It was what Batman was doing for years, to remain an urban legend.

"So are we going to do this or not?" Linda asked as she bit on her lip and waited for them to give an answer. They waited on pins and needles, as the old cliche went, time ran ran down. The group watched for someone else to say anything.

"I don't know about you, but I'm ready," Huntress added with fierce determination in her eyes.

"I am too," Batgirl added with a nod and a smile as she geared up and was ready to go.

"Well then what are we waiting for?" Black Canary asked the group moved forward. The rest of the Justice League tried to pick up the pieces and it would be a while before they got to something resembling fully operational.

Patronus Incorporated on the other hands, well that was an interesting thing. They were still working on projects that had been in the works since before the Zod Invasion. The owners of the company, they were not accepting new projects at the moment, which struck many people as very odd. It was almost like they dialed back all of their operations to something that would be considered very minimal. Only Kara and Harry had the slightest idea of what was in the cards, even though Linda, Galatea, and Karen had some sort of idea.

Laura, being relatively new to this, said nothing. She did spend a fair bit of time with Harry, getting to know him, and she could tell why the other hers fell for him rather hard. He was the type of guy that one would want to settle down with and also the type of guy that offered a clear and present danger with all he had to offer. So he presented the best of both worlds.

The blonde's face crossed with a slight smile when she saw a glowing blue light outside of the window and the ring zoomed towards her hand. It hovered above her head.

'It took long enough,' Laura thought to herself, a bright smile that got even brighter as the ring moved closer to her.

Superman tried to push himself free of his restraints but he could not free himself no matter how much force he exerted. No matter how much he tried to struggle free, there was no give in these chains at all. It was six weeks ago, closer to seven, where he left Earth to search for the bottled city of Kandor. Yet, if there was someone searching for him, he received no hints of it. The Man of Steel struggled and squirmed but a voice cut into his line of hearing.

"You know, I don't think that you're going to get out of there any time soon, no matter how hard you try."

Clark turned around and saw a man who looked unshaven and had a pair of wings that was in the cell across from him. The Man of Steel came to the unfortunate conclusion that his powers were gone and it was not possible to come back any time soon. Superman was not so super with the red solar radiation on this planet. Yet, he saw the figure across from him and he tried to piece together who this man was across from him.

"Are you a Thanagarian?" Superman asked as he looked across at the man.

"Yes, I am or I was, a pity what happened to them, but Zod was one that was always blood thirsty," the Thanagarian commented in a conversational tone. "Then again, we hawks can be rather blood thirsty when we want to. So...we do what we can to do. Survival of the fittest and all that, but what's done is done."

Superman blinked when he watched them, he pushed his way out but he slammed back down into the wall.

"You are persistent as I heard, Superman," the hawk commented as he watched the Man of Steel with interest as if he was a museum exhibit.

"Who are you?" Superman asked, his eyes narrowed suspiciously. Perhaps it was because of the fact that he was there in this prison cell for almost six weeks, but he was not high on trus now. He carefully eyed the man, the hawk, who responded in a voice that did not offer too much sincerity.

"Byth Rokk, at your service."

"What are you in here for?" Superman asked as he looked at Byth, surveying him with an accusatory eye.

"I'm in here because there was a misunderstanding, there were people that can't take what I'm doing at face value," Rokk stated without blinking. Superman could tell from his voice that he was in here due to some shady means. "It was a deal, that went bad. Money was the motivator, it always is, a powerful motivator, one of greed."

"So you conned people?" Superman asked, feeling angry.

Rokk now was on the defense. "Conning people is such a term that is ugly, it implies that I didn't do anything that was just. I prefer that I was making sure that I got a fair deal. It's a universe out there where money talks and those who don't have it, well they don't matter now, do they?"

The Man of Steel continued to glare forward with an accusatory glance.

"You don't trust me at face value, well that is fine," Rokk stated as he smiled. "The truth is Kal-El, you're not the hero that you think yourself to be. The three months that Darkseid had you underneath his thumb, well that damaged your reputation. Your symbol is known throughout the universe as something that is feared and hated. And they're just picking together the pieces. And there's no place you can hide, not on Earth. And Krypton is gone...well mostly gone."

"What do you mean mostly gone?" Superman asked, carefully waiting for an answer and Rokk paused, mulling over everything in his mind, pleased that he had some kind of control over Superman. "What are you talking about?"

"I'm talking about the fabled bottled city of Kandor, lost in time," Rokk commented in a dry voice. "You see, I've seen it, at least a glimpse of it. If anyone can extract the city, they have their hands on technology that is beyond the dreams of men and women all across the universe. Some of the greatest scientific minds of all of Krypton were trapped in that city"

Superman narrowed his eyes, he was pretty sure that this Rokk character intended to get his hands on the bottled city of Kandor himself. It was almost like he knew where it was, although he was pretty sure that's what Rokk wanted him to think. The Man of Steel kept his eyes carefully on the Thanagarian before him who rocked back and forth in the cell, humming a triumphant tune.

"It doesn't matter, for any of us, because our jailers are coming," Rokk responded in a resigned voice. "Even I, the master thief that I am, I might not able to steal their hearts. It's a pity, I won't be able to see a next mail but neither will you. It doesn't look like a job for Superman anymore."

Superman turned his head around, when he heard the footsteps outside. He hoped to plead to them.

"I don't know what you think happened, but I was brainwashed by Darkseid and Granny Goodness," Superman answered but the guards looked unsympathetic towards his claims. "There is a huge misunderstanding."

The guard chewed on something in his mouth as his nasty gaze focused on Superman. Now, the Man of Steel realized that he was dealing with someone who was completely and totally unsympathetic to his mutterings and unsympathetic to the fact that there were circumstances that lead to all of those deaths. He felt sorry about the blood that was inadvertently placed on his hands with what happened. He tried vainly to voice his innocence.

"Look, I don't know what happened..."

"You slaughtered millions with your Kryptonian brutality," one of the guards stated with a nasty glare towards Superman. "I don't think you realize the full degree of your crimes. There is nothing that will bring these men, women, and children back."

"So are you going to execute me?" Superman asked but the guard's laughter was extremely harsh and heartless.

"Execution, that will be something that you will be begging for by the time we are done with you, no we have something else in mind with you," the guard stated in a harsh voice, pulling Superman up. A second guard grabbed the Man of Steel by the other arm.

"It's normally traditional to have a trial in any civilized universe."

"You're barking up the wrong tree, mate," Rokk stated with a cringe for Superman's sake.

"Look at that, Edgar, the killer wants to talk about civilization. Where he brought down his legions of fire demons from the planet and wrecked half of our planet in the name of Darkseid. We might not get that monster but we'll get his minion. You're going to wish you died with the rest of Krypton."

Superman found himself wishing for that fact more and more when he was dragged off by the guards, powerless and helpless. He tried to figure out a way out of his predicament although he was at a loss. To say he was up a creek without a paddle would be the understatement of the century.

Diana sat on the edge of the island, her hair tied back in a long ponytail. She deftly crossed her arms, when she smiled and appreciated the beauty around her. It was serene, the island was and for the past six weeks, she was cut off from the hustle and bustle of Man's World. It allowed her to be alone with her thoughts and she heard two figures swoop down from behind her. The dark haired woman turned around and her expression brightened.

"I was wondering what you two were up to," Diana stated as she got up to her feet and hugged Harry and Kara tightly. She lingered a slight bit as she pulled back. Things changed a lot over the past several weeks.

"We've been on a journey of our own, much like you have in many ways," Kara stated as she grabbed Harry's hand firmly in hers and she nodded as the couple reflected on the last few weeks that were.

The Flamebird entity was one thing that they studied and their powers amplified stronger than ever. They did some off world traveling over the past few weeks and Kara found out something interesting. She could sustain her powers on a world with a red sun, even without the charms to filter the red solar radiation. Harry's magic was stronger and more powerful as well, not that was the only thing that he could do.

They could heal from many injuries, in fact when they stood on the offworld planet practicing their powers, an asteroid hit. It was an asteroid that would have knocked either of them out for a long time some time ago, but they barely felt a scratch. That was great. It was almost like their bodies were being prepared for something, although they had no idea what. And that was the fact that both of their sex drives were ramped up and they were going at it in between training every single moment they could manage. Although they were more able to hold their urges at bay now then they had a month ago.

"New powers, getting used to them," Kara answered as she smiled at Diana, before the three of them sat down on the rocks, at the edge of the roaring water. The trio relaxed, giving themselves a moment to recover. "It's almost like we got reborn again and again. We needed to figure out who we really were."

Harry reached to the side and grabbed Kara's hand. "And our love is stronger than ever."

Diana smiled, she was happy and saw the shimmering glow the two of them gave; it was hard not to notice any of that. They were two people that were the pinnacle of beauty of their respective genders. She started to notice this more and more as of yet. Kara should appreciate how lucky she was, as did the other girls, and Harry would as well.

"If anyone deserves happiness, it's you two," Diana told them with a bright smile on her face.

Harry looked grateful before he nodded. "Thank you."

"I've heard from Donna, she's embracing her new role well," Diana commented lightly and Harry and Kara snickered when they thought about it. It took them a couple of moments to catch their breath completely as Kara was the one who spoke up.

"Too true, too true, looking up information, that's what Hermione was born for," Kara answered and Harry nodded swiftly beside her.

"She wasn't someone who was too comfortable on the field, not that she isn't capable," Harry added with a smile.

'Is this thing on?' Karen thought through the bond link. 'There you two are, you've been gone...I thought for a moment that something was wrong.'

"It's Karen, she finally accessed the re-opened bond link," Kara said to Diana who smiled and nodded.

"Tell her I said hi," Diana said with an eager smile on her face.

'Diana said hi,' Kara thought to them mentally.

'Yeah, I'm glad she's doing well but what happened with you guys?' Karen asked, trying to convey her concern but at the same time, she did not want to be too demanding with her words.

'Oh a little bit of this, a little bit of that, you know how things like that go,' Harry thought to her.

'Specifics, they would be nicer,' Galatea interjected. She then amended hastily. 'And I'm glad you're back.'

'Well despite everything it's good to be home,' Kara stated but if she was honest, there were still were some demons she had to conquer. As she thought about it, it hurt deep down what the people of Earth did and how easily they embraced Zod. Did they not know...well it didn't matter now, did it?

'I'm sensing a but,' Linda thought to them, but she did not want to sound too accusing.

'Yeah there always is one, I think I have had some time to come to terms with what happened, I'm better now,' Kara thought to herself as Harry grabbed her hand to give her strength.

'We're back and stronger than ever,' Harry chimed in, determination flooding through his thoughts.

That was a statement that was one hundred percent given and accepted by all. They all walked forward, ready, willing, and able to get ready for the next part of their lives. The Potters stood together and Patronus, while put on hold where Kara and Harry went on their journey. Now they were back and better than ever.

Did time heal all wounds?

Well that was a matter of perception but Harry and Kara took a moment to put things in perspective. They kicked back and relaxed, it was truly another day in paradise.

The Cave across from the Potter Family home off of the coast was fitted with the highest grade technology that money could buy. Cyborg in particular walked around, whistling when he took a look at the technology.

"Not too bad, not too bad at all," Cyborg remarked, looking rather impressed with what was laid out before him.

"I would have to agree," Starfire remarked when she turned around with wide eyes when she watched. The Titans Tower, it was a fascinating place to live but much to Starfire's disappointment it was taken down years ago. She missed several years of her life but she made up for some lost time and would make up even more. "It is a place that feels like home."

"Sometimes that's all we need," Raven stated calmly as she stepped out, a shadow of a smile crossing her face, but only a small one. The truth was that she decided to step out more into the real world and perhaps get into the swing of things.

The newest arrival, a tall seventeen year old girl, with blonde hair that flowed down to frame her face. She had alluring blue eyes and juicy pink lips. The red shirt wrapped around her C-Cup breasts and rode up a slight bit to show her midriff. The tight blue jeans clung to her supple ass and she had a long pair of legs that went down for miles.

Her name was Cassie Sandsmark and her mother had formed a friendship with Diana. Her father, as she found out recently, was the Greek God known as Zeus. He got around the block a few times, which was one thing mythology got accurate. That brought a shadow of a smile to her fast or rather a ghost of one. Regardless of the fact, she stood, ready for action.

"Settling in nicely, Cassie?"

Cassie turned around and saw Hermione standing there.

"Yeah, it's overwhelming," Cassie stated with a nod of her head when she watched everything that was happening, carefully keeping an eye all that was going on around her. "I don't know how you don't...I don't know, go to pieces or anything."

Hermione smiled at the girl. "Well just take it one day at a time and eventually you'll get it, believe me, that's the best way to tackle it."

"Yeah, I guess," Cassie responded with a brief smile crossing her face.

Longshadow turned up as well, awkwardly fitting in with the rest of the group. He asked the question over the past couple of months of what was his purpose. That was something that he would find out in due time and he agreed to join these team, because the Potters helped him out during a crucial time in his life.

"Don't worry I think we're all finding our place."

Longshadow turned around and saw Miss Martian standing there in the background, a smile on her face.

"I didn't mean to..."

"No it is quite alright, I'm sure you didn't read my mind," Longshadow stated as he relaxed with ease. "It should be obvious to the most observant person that the look on my face indicated that there was some kind of doubt in my mind."

"Yeah, that's right, it should be obvious," M'gann stated, to be honest, she was trying to find her place herself.

The guests of honor showed up. Harry and Kara popped up; this was the first time that they were seen in public in a few weeks, in fact, this was the first time that they were seen in public since the Zod incident. All things considered, they were looking pretty good, in fact they looked really good.

Kara dressed in a black tank top that stretched a little bit over her D-Cup bust and a pair of tight black shorts that stretched around shapely her hips and ass. She wore a pair of black high heel boots to top up everything. Over her tank top she wore a black jacket with a silver "S" shield on it. A pair of dark sunglasses covered her blue eyes. Harry wore a black sleeveless t-shirt that showed his arms, which many of the females in the house appreciated, along with tight black leather pants and boots.

"Thank you for coming here on short notice," Harry answered as he looked at them. "I'm sure you're wondering what this is all about."

"The thought did cross my mind," Raven answered but she turned to see what Harry was on about today.

"Over the past few weeks, the term hero, has been something that has been perverted and mistreated," Harry stated he watched them all, keeping a careful eye on them. "There are those people out there who are willing to discount what we do, because it doesn't cover their world view. You've heard about the Vigilante Registration Act, which would force all of us to reveal our information for public consumption. Thus every lunatic will go after our non-super powered friends and family."

"What do you want us to do?" Artemis asked as she. "Green Arrow thinks that we should fall into line with the government."

"Green Arrow is wrong, we shouldn't allow them to push us around," Starfire responded in a firm voice and they all nodded.

"But how can we defeat the collective might of the United States government," Longshadow wondered, he knew how dangerous they could be when their backs were pushed up against the wall, Cadmus was proof of that.

"It is not defeating them that matters, but rather making sure that they don't get us down," Kara responded in a bright voice, regaining some of her old spirit that had been lost. "There are still people out there who will hurt people. If they think that this VRA is going to get us down, then they're wrong. At the end of the day, it will be shut down. Each and every one of you, you have something that can be brought to the table. You have abilities and talents, that will serve us against the fight against criminals out there."

The group nodded and smiled, they were all pleased.

"So this group is being formed, to back each other up, the Justice League can do their own thing, on their own time," Hermione added as she faced them all. "I'm helping them when I can but the final word comes to them."

"So a new Teen Titans or something?" Beast Boy asked but Harry shook his head.

"The Titans were good, but it was something that happened on their own time, plus many of you aren't teenagers even if a few of you are," Harry answered when he watched them all carefully, standing side by side with Kara. "We're going to do this and we're going to do this right."

The group nodded, all of them tingling in excitement for what was going to happen. They had no idea what was coming next, but they hoped that this team and everyone in it would get a chance to prosper.

"So are we ready to do something?" Harry asked as he looked at the team.

"You know I'm in," M'gann answered as she watched Harry with adoration in her eyes.

"As am I," Raven responded with a slight smile.

"You know I'm in," Cyborg added as he looked ready to go.

"You know that I'm ready to go," Artemis stated, hoping that this team would be like a second family to her. Given that her first was dysfunctional, that wasn't saying much.

"Let's do this," Beast Boy responded with a smile.

"Count me in, my friends," Longshadow stated as he inclined his head with a smile.

"Yes, this will be great," Starfire responded in an excited voice when she turned to them.

"Sure, I can't wait," Cassie answered, she might have been new to this but she wanted to be on board with it from the ground floor up. Plus the two leaders weren't too bad on the eyes but that was more of a bonus than anything.

"So, did I miss anything?"

Galatea turned up before she walked forward towards them. Karen and Linda arrived as well, with Conner stepping with them, going in the background.

"Sorry, I'm late, got tied up at school," Conner responded, although the tying up was the fact that someone who was bullying younger children was found dangling from the flagpole by his underpants. Although that could be considered to be tied up. "But for this new team thing, I'll be sure to help out when I can."

"I knew we could count on you," Kara answered with a smile as Harry and his four wives stood ready for action.

They were ready for something great, although they had no idea how great it might be. They would have to wait and see, and the assembled group looked ready, all of them were determined but for different reasons.

"This is off the grid, not part of the Justice League, and we may be bending a few rules but if it works, it will save lives," Kara concluded to them and they all nodded. Her and Harry were the leaders, with the other wives helping out as they were able to. The former Titans also agreed to help, given that they had been at this game for the longest of any of them.

"Sorry that we've been unable to stop by for a long time it's just that..."

Martha waved off Kara's apologies, she was in good spirits all things considered. Jonathan's latest checkup had received good news, even if there was still a minor risk. All she had to do was moderate his diet, and make sure he did not do any labor.

"It's no problem, you get busy, it happens," Martha commented as she walked into the kitchen with Harry, Kara, Karen, Galatea, and Linda. "Clark's still on his mission."

"Yeah he is, I don't know when he'll be back," Kara answered, trying not to show the worry she had. It was unlike Clark to stay out for this long and in fact, if he was out for much longer, they were going to lead a search party for him. The last time he was out this long, Darkseid nabbed him.

"I'm sure Clark's fine, Martha," Jonathan stated as he drank the lemonade he had been prepared and stepped back. It was a bitter pill to swallow that he had to take it easy, but Conner, Laura, and Galatea picked up the slack for most of the farm work and it was not like he couldn't supervise. Although Martha tended to supervise his supervising to make sure he did not get himself worked up too much. "He's been out there..."

"The last time he went out in space for this long, we know what happened," Martha stated, it was a mother's worst fear come true. She said no more, with Jonathan's heart, she did not want to get him worked up.

"I wonder if the doctor should have prevented me from reading the newspaper, there's enough in there to get you worked up," Jonathan responded as he looked at the newspaper with narrowed eyes. "They're talking about this VRA crap. As if that it's going to do any good."

"No, it isn't but people think that it might," Karen stated in a depressed tone of voice, with Harry putting his arm around her. The group sat around at the table with frustrations in their eyes.

"Yeah, they think it's doing good but it's going to hurt more people than it helps," Linda responded in a frustrated tone of voice.

This was going to lead to either the heroes being divided, which would mean more casualties then they could imagine. Or it would mean a situation that was like the Justice Lords all over again. That was something that Linda shuddered to think about. She lived that nightmare once but not again.

"And a new pair of heroes popped up in Metropolis and I don't mean the new Supergirl and Arcane," Martha stated as she looked at Kara and Harry with an appraising look. "I don't know if you've heard about it, but Intergang was cut off by two new super heroes. One of them called herself Flamebird and the other called himself Omega."

Harry and Kara offered a pair of knowing smiles; it was obvious that they knew something although they were not really saying anything at the moment. It was one of those things where they were going to keep their mouths shut.

"Well good for them," Kara commented after a moment's pause when she watched their reactions.

The truth was that was a test run for their new identities and their powers, and sure enough they wasted Intergang in a matter of seconds. Talk about an idea that was beaten into the ground time and time again, but Kara digressed.

'New time, new look I take it,' Karen thought to her spouses.

'Pretty much, yeah,' Harry thought back to them, holding her hand under the table. 'We're back for good but Harry and Kara Potter...we have to kind of disappear from the public eye for a while.'

'Godfrey's calling you a coward, not owning up to what happened,' Linda thought to him.

'Fuck Godfrey,' Galatea thought as she imagined strangling that bastard.

'My sentiments exactly,' Kara thought with a grin before she shook herself free, it must be weird for the Kents to be sitting there as they did their own mental byplay.

"I'm glad that everything is going to turn out for the better, and I'm glad you're back on your feet, Jonathan," Harry answered and the older man nodded.

"Believe me, I just wish I didn't have to hear some loon bash my son every day," Jonathan stated with a nasty grimace as he shook his head. "I know I should turn him off but I go up to the general store every day, and I have to hear about it."

"The last thing you need to do is go to prison because you'll do something to someone because of what they say about Clark," Martha stated and Jonathan responded with a crisp nod, he would have to agree.

"And Lana got into a shouting match with them over the phone about Superman, one of them, there is this nutcase who keeps calling Patronus," Harry offered when he spun around.

"The good news is that our school is doing well," Galatea chimed in, figuring she would bring some positivity into this situation.

"Sorry, I can't be happier about that, there's something about Godfrey that brings the entire mood down," Harry responded as he closed his eyes and thought about it. He couldn't quite put his finger on what it was but there was something about the entire situation that reeked of something nasty. Godfrey should not have that much power over people.

"The people are turning into...well they're not being rational," Karen offered as she shrugged.

"That was for sure, that's for damn sure," Linda stated as she sighed deeply.

They all wished that they could enjoy their little trip to the Kent Farm even more but there was something about what was happening that put a bit of a downer on today's visit. Perhaps if they could focus a bit more, they could get everything completely done, but that was easier said than done.

"So how long are you going to stay out of the public eye?" Jonathan wondered, breaking the silence.

"Long as necessary, really," Harry offered, it was Karen who went to the press conferences now, but she was used to it, given that she had to do it a lot with the business in her world. He had no idea what was happening with this world.

All he knew was that he did not like it.

Laura sat on the couch of the Potter house, dressed in a white blouse, with a black skirt that showed off her legs. Her blue eyes simmered with desire when she waited for Harry, dangling her shoes from her feet as she waited.

"You wanted to see me, Laura," Harry responded but she held up her hand, biting her lip. Harry saw the familiar ring on her hand. "So that makes you number five?"

"Yeah that does, it popped up a couple days ago, it took me a while to work up the nerve to ask you," Laura responded as she got up to her feet, before she lightly wrapped her arms around him, biting her lip nervously. "I want you to make love with me."

Laura bent forward and captured Harry's lips with a nice kiss, with the dark haired wizard wrapping his arms around her slender body, pulling her into him. He sat back on the couch, and Laura straddled his lap, before she deeply kissed him, and worked the buttons of his shirt open feverishly, rubbing his chest with her hands, feeling his muscles underneath her hands.

"Mmmh, delicious," Laura stated with a grin as she played with his chest and abs.

"I aim to please," Harry stated as he planted a few kisses on the side of her neck, and unbuttoned her blouse to reveal the blue bra that she felt. In her mind, this was the first time she was being undressed by a man and she felt a tingle.

She reached down and squeezed Harry's growing length in her hand, breathing heavily when she felt it throb in her hand. She could hardly believe it and she began to stroke it slowly and carefully, squeezing his bulge.

"Take me, Harry," she begged, a lustful look in her otherwise innocent eyes.

Harry pushed her back onto the couch and pinned her wrists down as he kissed her madly.

Smut/Lemon Ends.

Harry laid on the couch, with Galatea and Laura resting against him, the two blonde beauties curled up on either side of him.

"We're just getting started, lover," Galatea stated as she eyed Harry with hunger in her eyes. "Get ready for round two."

"And many more no doubt," Laura stated, when she rested her head on Harry's broad shoulder.

Harry was ready.
