He had pried open a panel in the uncomfortably organic-looking wall of the ship and was fumbling with the metallic veinwork within, a podlike bot levitating tools by some kind of stasis beside his elbow. Zod glanced up sharply as Clark floated over the lip of the entryway, frowned, then turned back to the veinwork, pressing his fingertips to an ear. In this AU, Clark does not kill Zod at the end of MoS, and the story takes place sometime after MoS. This is not my story you can get the Chinese version on AO3
