Chapter 1: restarting
this story is after Jason and crew "died", they got send back to the time where Jason was in the hospital after saving Spirit. Jazz is gone in this time line, and it'll show how much he'll change.
2 weeks after the hospital visit.
I was still at home, getting as much rest as possible. Red went back to school.
"Jason, a girl from school is coming over to give you your homework." my mom, Kyley, said.
"okay, have fun at work." I said. My mom left and I grabbed my controller to play a game.
After a while, someone knocked on my door. I opened the door, seeing a ghost blue hedgehog wearing a red blouse and blue pants. She had a couple of books under her arms.
"hi Spirit, come in." I said. Spirit walked in and sat down on my couch.
"I brought you your missed homework." Spirit said. I grabbed a glass and poured in some water.
"thanks. Hey, I was thinking, there is a new movie, do you want to go to it, together?" she asked.
"when?"
"in a few minutes. I have tickets."
"sure, I'd love to." Spirit walked away, with the books in her arms.
"and the homework?" I asked.
"there is no homework." she said as she winked. "let's go."
after the movie.
"it was a pretty good movie, but I'm not into space movies." I said.
"oh, thank god, I thought I was the only one." she said.
"do you want to get something to eat?"
"sure, your place?" I nodded.
At my place.
"here 'ou ar', a simple steak and potatoes." I said with a terrible french accent. Spirit giggled.
"well then, bon appetit." she said as she dove in."this is amazing, where did you learn how to cook like this?"
"my mom taught me, I'm at my dad's lab sometimes, and sometimes he has to work more, so I cook for the both of us."
"are your parents divorced?"
"no, my dad's just busy in the lab. He'll have all the time he'll need with us after this project he's keeping a secret to us."
"do you miss him?"
"sometimes, but I see him a lot at the lab." we both finished our plates.
"I'll wash the plates." she said as she grabbed the plates and began washing them off.
"we have a dishwasher." I said laughing.
"well..." Spirit said as we were watching some TV
"I don't know what to do." I said.
"I know something, but I don't know if you'd want to."
"what do you mean?"
"we could cuddle."
"excuse me. Cuddle? As in..."
"NO! I just meant hugging each other, poking each other, just having a bit more fun." I looked at her and started tickling her. She laughed hard.
"say uncle." I said teasing.
"never." she said as she pushed me off of her and got on top of me, holding my wrists. "you say uncle, or..."
"or what." her face got a little closer.
"do you trust me?"
"I do, but I don't trust our hormones." she laughed as she put her face against mine and put out her tongue.
"may I give you a kiss? I've been wanting to for helping me get back and saving me from those people."
"what kind of kiss?"
"just one on you mouth, if it's okay for you."
"sure." Spirit came even closer and kissed me.
"better?" I asked.
"no, it made it worse." we sat down on the bench.
"what is it?"
"I..I..I.."
"please, is it the kiss, because I could do it over if you want to..." Spirit put her hand on my cheek and kissed me again, with more passion. It was like in those movies, we kept kissing each other for a minutes or two.
"I love you, that's why I acted so strange."
"I...I...I don't know what to say..."
"oh my god, please let us at least stay friends."
"no..."
"b...but..."
"I want to be more." Spirit's eyes were sparkling and she hugged me. My mom came in.
"how are you two?" my mom asked.
"we're great, the best I've been in years." I said.
"Jason just said he wants to be with me." Spirit said.
"so are you two a couple now?"
"I guess." I said.
"I have to go home, or else my dad will get worried." Spirit said as she walked away.
"see you tomorrow? Perhaps at school?" I asked.
"sure, we'll text." she said as she winked at me and walked home.
"so, anything else happened here?"
"I cooked us some food, and I'm going back to school tomorrow, I think I'm ready." I said.
"if anything goes wrong, come home, don't overdue your injury."
"you know me."
"that's why I said it."
the next day.
I woke up around 7, got out of bed and took a shower. I started thinking, what will my future be. I was thinking of becoming a PE teacher and perhaps coach of the football team at school. After about half an hour, someone knocked on my door.
"JASON, I HAVE TO TAKE A SHOWER AS WELL!" Angel said. Angel also lives with us, mainly because she doesn't have any relative living on Mobius, but we barely see her.
"fine, I'm done anyway." I said as I turned off the shower. Normally, someone would get a cold shower, but since my body generates heat, I can even swim in frozen water. I heated myself up even more to dry myself off. I walked past Angel towards my room to get dressed.
"next time, lessen on your body heat, I can't see because of all the fog." Angel said annoyed. I grabbed a white shirt and my training outfit, the blue with a green bar just beginning just under my armpit and ending at my last rib. I walked down, immediately feeling my arm sting. I thought nothing of it and made me a sandwich with chicken, tomatoes and lettuce. After I did everything for school, I grabbed my fire red hover-board and my backpack and rode towards school.
"Jason the hero." Flare said. I smiled as we hugged. "how's everything going?"
"I'm okay, had some a good rest, but I'm happy to see you guys again." I said. We went to the football clubhouse and I saw everyone there.
"Jason, he's back. How will he play, will he be the same." I heard from everyone. The coach approached me.
"are you ready to train or do you need more time to rest." he said.
"no rest, my arm might hurt, but I still can play." I said. We walked outside to the pitch to train a bit. The coach grabbed the ball and walked to the middle.
"i want to have the first shot on Jason, to see if he's back." the coach said as he sprinted towards me. He just shot against the ball at full force, no techniques. I put my right hand in front of me and placed my left hand behind it. I got the ball on my hands and felt a shock through my arm. The ball flew under my chin and made me fly into the upper bar of the goal. I lost consciousness.
(Spirit's P.O.V)
my class ended, and I walked with Rose to the shopping mall, but on the way to the gate, I saw the pitch filled with people forming a circle around something. I ran towards it, hoping it wasn't Jason, but it was. I quickly called his mom and told her to come here as fast as she could. Jason was still breathing, but when I tried reading his mind, and yes, I'm a telekinetic, I couldn't see any activity. Kyley rushed to the pitch with an ambulance team behind her. She was stressing out and asked the coach countless times what happened. Jason moaned in pain as the ambulance team lifted him in the ambulance. Kyley got in with him and they drove off.
A few days later
I had gone home after what happened, waiting for a call from either Kyley or Jason. Rose stayed with me that day to keep me comfort. I was all alone when phone rang.
"Spirit speaking, who is this?" I said.
"Spirit, come quickly to the hospital, Jason is starting to wake up." Kyley said over the phone. I hung up and used Jason's hover-board and went to the hospital.
Jason was just awake when I came in. he moaned a little as daylight hit his eyes.
"w-w-what h-happened." he said. Kyley and Gerald, his dad, came a bit closer.
"you played football and got knocked out." Kyley said.
"the doctors fixed your arm, so you won't feel any pain again." Gerald said.
"dad, you had that portal right? I have an idea for your project when I was out." Jason said.
"in a few days."
"I'll need Spirit's help for it. She knows what I want to try."
"you mean using my space-time formula to balance the portal?" I said. He nodded.
Almost a month had passed, Jason and I worked almost non-stop on the portal, writing out the formula and trying it out. After a while, I got sick and was unable to work, so Jason finished the portal without my help.
(Jason's P.O.V)
I worked very hard to get teleportation working in the portals. Due to Spirit's sickness, she was unable to finish the project with me.
"okay Jason, *couch* I'm going to start up the portal, I'll see you on the other side." Spirit said as I walked through the portal.
I'm going to end it off here, just to tease you guys, if it goes how I think it will, it'll be a very nice story, but I'm always open for anything. See you guys, in the next chapter. Bu-bye!
