"How...Why are you here? How did you find us? Where'd you go?"
"Questions, questions…..questions. All will be revealed."
"Yeah. Uhh. Sorry for firing at you."
"It would do you no good.'
"I still say sorry."
"Helen, the only person who can shapeshift is Ruby, and she's bak on Rocketra."
"And the only people who can teleport…..are Ghosts.
Well, besides Jacklyn; but she can only do it on the flow of the Wind. So, you are no Ruby, and you are no Dead? So I ask. Who are you?"
"I'm...…a Timetraveler.
My time was coming to an end, and I had to get back before my Portal closed forever. We all did. That's why I had to leave so suddenly.
When the Attack on the the Time Machine happened, not only were people trying to flee out of Portals, but the ones trapped on Missions, just like me; now had to race...to get back."
"Were we ever real?"
"...I got my info. Really did want to settle down, but....."
"Please. I spent my whole entire life trying to find you. Win you back. And now I realize that was all in vain, for you already had someone else."
"Wait. You explained how you raced back through a Portal before it collapsed...…but how'd you come back on?"
"We only have one backup generator. Just like a Powerswitch. Turn everything off, provide power to the one you need. I don't know who turned all the Portals off all of a sudden, but the moment they stopped disrupting the signal; one finally was able to develop before my eyes. Wasting no time, I jumped through...….And here I am."
"And here you are. But...the backup Generator is only strong enough to open one Portal at a time, and with the Godfather interrupting and constantly banging his Hammer, we just shortened the warranty."
"Yes."
"So, how will you get back?"
"....Ready?"
"Ready."
*Errrrrriiiaannnn*
"Wooo. Hold on to something. Someones moving our ship."
"Not to worry."
"I lost all controls."
"Theo, I said don't worry. Jacklyn is just steering us home. She's continuing to try to outdo herself. Make this ship all auto. Pre Program routes into her Controller, and there we go."
"Who's here to stop others from taking over?"
*Tap*
"Soulles clothes?"
".....May I have a go?"
"Ariel, this…."
"Oh, come on. Please? I promise to be extra careful."
"Fine."
"What does this button do? 'Return home.'
"Ariel, wait. This Ship is…"
*Click*
*Zuuurrraauuumm*
"Eeeeechhhh."
*Poom*
"........Is everyone ok?"
"That was an interesting first attempt."
"Ariel did it."
"Wait, I...…It's your Controller."
"You modded it."
"Girls, girls; last minute you were fighting us, and now you are here not."
"We weren't fighting you?"
"Huh?"
"Jacklyn's the imposter. Alexa noticed it the moment Jack called you back. She left the real Jack back at Base, and...…Helen?"
"Ariel."
"Of course you know her. She's…..traveled here a few times. Never stayed long for she always wanted to find the real reason behind stuff. Said magic doesn't exist. We are cursed and if you live on this Planet for too long, you will turn into one of them."
"So, that's why you said that?"
*Click….click*
*Vurrruaaauum*
"You gonna shoot me again with your wrist blaster?"
"Yes."
*Boom*
"Aaaaaghh."
*Phueeeeemmm*
"Raptor Mosquito behind you. You're welcome."
"Thank you."
"Helen."
"Jacklyn, my utmost respect for you. Thanks for convincing Theo. I told him to stop and I'd be back. He never listened to me. But to you, he was willing to give up the world. And now...we both have it."
"Not yet."
*Click*
*Vurrrruuuaaamm*
"Huhhhhh? That's my suit. Where'd you get it?"
"Space Debris. After the Blast, the ones who couldn't make it out were cleaned up and disposed of. Stripped of their armor, and passed to the next. While the men were only focused on the Batterypack inside, my dad wanted the armor. Here, put it on before you get sick."
