Fry and Bender were sitting on the couch, being lazy and watching T.V as usual. Suddenly, the Professor called up everyone to the situation room. "Good news everyone! One of you is going to be selected to go on a very important mission!" The Professor announced. "Please report to the situation room immediately!". Fry, Bender, and Leela came down the situation room where the Clone-O-Mat once was, and everyone was standing there confused. "Where is the Professor ?" Amy said. "I don't know Amy, but I do know that me and Bender don't want to go on this mission, right Bender?" Fry said. "Sure thing, meatbag!" Bender Said hysterically. Suddenly, everyone heard a sliding door open. It was The Professor. "Where have you been professor? You tell everyone to come down here, and you aren't even going to come down here yourself?" Amy declared. "Quiet you." The Professor said. "I was busy finding out which one of you needs to close the temporal loop on our end." "What temporal Loop?" Leela said confused. "Listen everyone, there are still loose ends for our timeline, and-" Suddenly he was interupted by Leela. "What loose ends? What is going on Professor!" Leela demanded and confused. "Yeah, like... what is happening professor?" Fry added. "Oh right! I forgot the entire story!" The Professor added again. "Back when Fry first came to the future, back in December 31 2999, some events that some of us experienced on that day were caused by a predestination paradox. And the timeline is being affected!" The Professor exclaimed. "No one has went back in time and caused those events to happen!" He said again. "So if one of us doesn't go back in time and fullfill our role on that day, our entire timeline will cause a giant paradox!" He said. "Why?" Fry said. "Because one of you right now has caused certain events in the past to allow everything we experienced to actually exist, you nitwit!" The Professor exclaimed. "And I know which one has to go back!" The Professor yelled. "Who!" The Entire Crew yelled. "Fry!" The Professor said. "Me? Why do i have to go back?" "The Decision is final!". "Now, I invented a time machine for Fry to go back on." The Professor said. "Why don't he just the time code like we did before?" Bender said. "Because we dont have it anymore, you idiot!" The Professor yelled. "Now back to the time machine, the setup is hooked up to the lava pit over there, and when i set the time coordinates, it turns that lava pit into a time portal, in which you can freely jump into." He said. "Now, let me input the coordinates to the Outside of Applied Cryogenics, on December 31, 2999. " "Alright Fry, you understand what you have to do?" He said. "Yes, I do!" Fry said. "Now get in!" The professor said. The Professor shoved Fry into the Lava pit and he screamed as Fry was falling down the lava pit. END OF CHAPTER 1.
