"Now that we found the problem, the Kids, and the Ship...…..where's the Dragon?"
*PHUEEEE...…PHUEEEE..........BOOM*
"ROAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"That….stopped everyone in their tracks."
"Of course.
PEOPLE, LISTEN UP. THIS HERE IS JACKLYN. Her and her team will help assist you in monitoring good behavior.
Please listen to them."
"Thank you."
"Excuse me a second. I left some stuff in our Transport Pod that will provide useful. Just be a sec."
"Whatever helps."
"....Pst, over here."
"Huh?"
"Jacklyn, over here.
*Click*
*Phueeemm*
Wooo, woo, woo. I am not here to hurt you."
"Hi Alexa. Or should I say, Ru….byyyy."
"Shh. Keep your voice down. What are you looking for?"
"I brought...ahaaa. Here it is.
Stuff from home."
"Rainbow Parachute?"
"Don't look at me like you didn't love this, for I know you did. Perfect social distance activity that won't harm another, but lift them up. In more ways than one. Why? What's up? Why aren't you with Serenity?"
"She said she needs to ecite the feeling on her own and that I was breathing her air, making her lose focus. She is a hella cook, but her social skills could still use a bit."
"Well, we will all be breathing each other's air pretty soon."
"You sure about that?"
"What you got?"
"................I tracked down the Time Machine, and let me tell you…..it's big. A huge Fusion reactor, with an upside down Funnel for a head."
"How do you know that was it?"
"For it exists in the present."
"Then why can't you track the Batteries?"
Earth?"
"
"Without the Batteries, the Machine just sits still. There are three slots on each side, for a total of twelve Batteries. You have one; I don't know where the others are."
"On Earth."
"Honey, yours was the only Prototype. Do you not know what that means? First one was built, the others followed.
By the time the President realzied what he sold to your Dads buyer, all He had left to use was the residue.
No. The other Batteries are out there. Somewhere. Somewhen. I can't track them because I can only track my timeline. The Batteries both exist in the past, and the Future. I can't see the Future and therefore cannot see the Batteries."
"What if I told you there was a way."
"ALEXA?"
".....Go on."
"It would be foolish to hide a Battery on a Planet. Planets only have so much room and will eventually be discovered. They are designed for travel. As long as the Sun stands, they stand. If I can find the Ships that go Warp Speed; I'll track them down."
"Can you convince them to give up their Batteries?"
"I…."
"Don't tell me."
"But."
"Jacklyn, you are the new Secret Bearer. Just find the Batteries, and come see me. Be careful though. If you find those Ships, I cannot promise they will be willing to just 'give up'."
"But what if I need help?"
"Since when have you needed help?"
"ALEXA.
I think I found a Ship."
"If the day ever does come, you know where to find me. In the meantime, Serenity cannot be your only Crew."
"Ruby, waiiiii…
*Phueeem*
Aaiiiiit. And...she's gone."
"Jacklyn, what's the hold up? Everyones waiting for you?" What did you have to get?"
"Rainbow Parachute.
I'm good now. Let's go."
