Chapter One: Through the Anomaly

10 years later
Connor Temple was sitting in the arc, trying to figure out why his precious detector hadn't gone off. Plain as day, there was an anomaly shining right in front of him. He had readjusted the wires, rebooted the hard drive, countless times. Abby Maitland, his wife of seven years was patiently waiting with their son, Luke, in the greenhouse. She was spraying her plants with water, when suddenly the baby growing inside her kicked. Since she was 33 weeks into the pregnancy, kicking had become a frequent action. She paused, waiting for the tike to settle down.

"It's okay babe. Please stop using mummy as a football." Luke, the four-year-old sitting at her heels, was quietly playing with his train set. His twin sister Madison was at her friend's tea party.

The anomaly in front of Connor started crackling, a sure fire way to tell that it was closing. He figured that while not knowing why the detector wasn't reacting wasn't a good thing, the problem was over for now. He grabbed his coat and started walking toward his wife.

"I don't know. The only thing I can figure is maybe the proximity of it is throwing the detector off. The magnetic pull of it might have an effect."

"I'm sure that you'll figure it out. It'll hit you tonight on your way to sleep." Abby had finished packing up Luke's bag. Although he had been playing with his train for a solid hour, he had gone through several other toys before deciding that was the best one. "Come on Luke. It's time to go home."

The four-year-old, who reminded many of his father, picked up his train. "Come on, put your jacket on." Abby held his jacket while Luke put his arms through the sleeves. Connor picked up Luke's backpack. "Did you have fun today, sport?" Connor nodded at his dad. He still wasn't much the talker. Madison on the other hand, would never shut up. The trio walk through to the main hallway, and Connor closed and locked the greenhouse doors. Halfway to the car, Connor checked his pockets for the keys. "I think I left them in the main room." Abby and Luke followed him back.

"I don't know where I put them Abs. I could have sworn they were in my pocket."

"I'm sure they're here somewhere, just keep looking." Abby joined her husband in the search. Luke, drawn in by the light, started walking towards the anomaly. It wasn't until Luke had reached a run when Connor realized his son's intentions. "Luke! Luke, stop. Luke, don't!"

The toddler was eaten up by the anomaly. He was being sent through time. "We have to follow him." Connor was on his way towards the split in time, hurrying when he noticed it closing. "No." Abby soothingly grabbed Connor shoulder. "Everything will be okay." A smile appeared on her face. "Don't you remember? Ten years ago?" Connor smiled. "He'll be alright. He's with his parents. He'll be alright. Come on Con, let's find those keys."

Abby continued her search; however, Connor wasn't as easily soothed. "Abby, I didn't know anything about being a parent back then. I mean sure, back then I thought I was doing an amazing job, but now…you do realize that I fed him carrots, right? He hates carrots!"

"Connor it's okay. It's not like you let him get eaten by an Allosaurus. Here they are." Abby clinked the keys in her hand. "Can we go home now? I am dying for a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich." Abby reached out for Connor's hand. Somewhat reluctantly, Connor grabbed hold of hers, and walked out the door.

Please review. I won't post the next chapter until I get at least 3 reviews. Tell me what you thought of it!
