"Woooooooooooo. And I just used that for Hyper speed. Not so much the jump though."
"You guys may think Magic is the future, but for us...it's Science. State of the art.
*Bang. Bang*
Mak provided. Now I am complete. With my watch, I can fuse a plasma blaster that covers my arm. Suited with the power of sun and water. Just pour it in, sun boils it and, we…..press this button here; it sprays out. Ten times faster than the eye can see. Gps tracker. Communication. Relay module."
"Relay Module?"
"Teleports us within ten feet of the closest Portal for evake."
"Only ten?"
"Hey?"
"You came to retrieve your lost valuables, or…"

*Snatch*
"No. I came to help you retrieve yours."
"How is that little tiny multi-tool going to save us?"
"Com base can retrieve and send us from home, but what about this side of the Portal? What if it breaks down?"
"Don't you have Engineers or something for this job?"
"Job? Kid, we do Missions. Not jobs. Authorized personnel only. Retrieve and capture. What if the Engineers die and we are the only ones? Team of three; two hold off the bad guys while the third communicates with Captain to get the generators back up and running."
"So you're saying that little tiny tool can make an age-old Generator work?"
"It's not about the tools. It's about the Brain. No need for anything fancy. Smarts, two hands, and a strong foot; you can kick anybody's butt."
"Can you...…get one of our Generators working?"
"Do you no good. I could fix this side of the Door, but someones gotta stand on the other side to open it. We just fix the Generator to reactivate the pull. Only the Main base can open Portals. To us now...they're just doors. Doors that lead back to base. Still need the Batteries, and...well....a lot more Smarter people than me. A Cardriver is smart enough to fix a flat, but only a Mechanic knows how to make it never happen again. I...….am not that Mechanic."
"Wait. If Godathers hacking did nothing but irritate the Generator, then just like a Bottle of Mentos; once the shakings done...it all pops."
"I like what you're thinking. Portals have opened up everywhere. It was either stay on that side and fix it...or stay on here. The faster I can get these Generators stable, the faster the Portals may close."
"Then hop to it. I'll show you where they are."
"But you....oh you dirty little Rascals."
"Thank you. So, what's the future like? The most powerful magic here is reversing time. Not egging it on."
"And the Guardian only tells us so much of the future."
"Leaving out exactly how we need to get there."
"And good luck having the Dragons tell you anything. So few understand them."
*BOOM*
"Welcome home, Helen."
"Aaaahhhh."
"Glad to be here, Frostwing.
Guys, Dragons may be the most powerful for you, but to them; I am a God. They keep the time in their realm; I help keep the time in all the Realms.
So, Frostwing......…How you been?"
"Never better, Helen. Never better. How's the Kids?"
"I had to abandon them. Split second decision. Couldn't save them all. Only I had the suit."
"I'm.....I'm sorry."
"I'm not."
"Huh?"
"Mommy, mommy, mommy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You're back. I knew you'd come back. I just knew."
"Kids."
*Ooof*
"But.....but how?"
"I may not have been able to save you, but I could save our Kids."
"Theo, you can come out now. That was a long time ago. I broke the Timelines code by not only interacting with a person from the apst, but also affecting their timeline."
"So, that's why you said she was being hunted? It wasn't us hunting her, but Them?"
"......And I regret nothing."
