Thanks for all the nice reviews on the first chapter. Sorry I've not been quick with getting the chapters up, been finishing up a few things with college, plus I've been coming up with more ideas as to how I was going to make this one work, now that it's set solid, I should get chapters up quicker for you to enjoy, if there are any mistakes or anything that you feel need adjusting, please tell me, it's always best to know (: Enjoy!

I don't own any of the characters mentioned in this fan fiction.

Roxanne had slipped back into her clothes, trying to keep quite as not to wake Megamind up, she moved towards the cupboard and pulled the door open, as quick as she could knowing that the door had one hell of a creak to it, it was a good idea, the creak was silenced… she glanced inside for a moment finding one of her coats hanging up, she took a hold of it and took it off the hanger. Completely forgetting about the door's creak she, and forgetting at how quite she needed to be, she pushed the door and it slammed shut, the creak seemingly laughing at her for doing so, she froze in place her eyes glancing over to the bed, Megamind's figure shifting only slightly. Just to make sure he was asleep she stayed in her position, relief washed over her and she slipped her coat over her arms, it was already warming up, she walked slowly towards her side of the bed and sat down slowly, the room was dark but she could make out where he lay, and which way he was facing, a soft smile crept onto her lips and she leaned over gently pressing a kiss to his cheek, before standing once more and heading for the door, she opened it up, the light from the hallway flooding in and revealing Megamind, she could not help but find him cute when he slept. So peaceful, innocent and one hundred percent perfect.

"It will be like I never left, I'll fix it, I promise"

Roxanne whispered to him, she then turned herself and slipped through the gap and into the hallway, pulling the door to a silent close.

Roxanne had not long began to get used to the 'Evil Lair' but still she still seemed to wander around, get lost, or even find a new room scattered here and there, in her mind she had memorized the route to the room which held the DeLorean. A thought flickered through her mind and she stopped turning herself around.

"Keys"

Was all she needed to say to recognise that there was no way to getting inside the car without them, she sighed and rolled her eyes as this obstacle appeared, luck was on her side as a brain bot gently glided past, she smiled.

"Could you get the keys for the DeLorean?"

Roxanne called out in a sort of loud whisper, the brain bot stopped and gave her a positive sounding noise, her face gleamed as the brain bot shot off, quicker than it had been doing before she spoke. She did not have to wait too long for it to return; with the keys… she held her hand up and caught the keys, whilst holding her other hand up to pet the brain bot.

"Thank you"

She said sincerely, she turned herself around and got herself back on track. Now that the obstacle was out the way, there was nothing stopping her, and she could not help but feel excitement rush through her.

Roxanne shot through the doors, keeping in mind that shooting through them a little too quickly could wake someone up… she stepped into the larger room, waiting in the dark for a few seconds as the lights flickered on. There it was… she took a step forwards twiddling the keys in her hand nervously, she could not help but feel a little uneasy about this, was she even doing the right thing? Was it right to go back and change someone's past? A life that had been lived already, one that had gone a long time ago?

Roxanne stepped towards the covered up DeLorean and tugged at the cover revealing a small amount of the vehicle underneath… this was it, now or never, she tugged harder at the cover and it slid off and onto the ground. Kicking it unconsciously away from the car she slipped the right key into the lock and turned it with a soft jolted movement, a gentle click telling her that it was unlocked.

"It's the right thing"

She assured herself pulling up the gull wing door and seating herself down in the driver's seat, she leaned herself out a little bit and grabbed the leather strap that was hanging down from the door, she gave it a tug and the door closed with a slam.

Roxanne could feel her heart racing, her breathing quickening as the adrenaline rushed through her, it was obvious what this was for… she closed her eyes and sucked in a deep breath. She held it for a few moments before releasing it…

"Okay, Roxanne calm down, you can do this; it's going to work out perfectly, possibly even better than you expected… or worse"

She snapped her eyes open and shook her head.

"That helps… apparently talking to yourself does too"

She mumbled rolling her eyes, after a few seconds she let her eyes look over the many controls, unconsciously scratching the back of her neck with the key, as if trying to get over her confusion, there was just so much to take in, she turned her head and stared towards the Flux Capacitor, and then flickered down to look at the switch and then back to face the Time Circuits.

"Oh"

Roxanne mumbled realizing that they needed turning on before she could do anything, she twisted the switch that she looked at not too long ago and the power rushed into everything, a proud smile formed… she placed the keys on her lap and looked towards the Time Circuits.

"Destination Time, Present Time, Last Time Departed"

She mumbled out loud reading what she could see, she lifted her hand up and fiddled with the buttons, the destination time changing to what she set ' Dec 16 1990, 10:00 am' Present Time was shown below reading ' Dec 3 2011, 11:58 pm'. Roxanne had not really wondered why she chose that exact date, it just sort of came to her, but she did not really think about it too much, it was not really that important.

Roxanne checked the time and date a few more times before nodding her head in confidence and took the keys and pushed them into the ignition, the engine roaring to life. She glanced up as a door started opening up in front of her… lights filling the passageway that was coming into view. That was obviously the way out then.

Roxanne flicked the lights on and drove forwards, she had misjudged the power of the car, but soon felt herself getting used to it as she drove up the passageway, the door had closed behind her and each light was set to turn off as the DeLorean drove past, she reached another door and slow down just before reaching it, it slowly lifted up and the road leading to the city was awaiting for her. She drove out and pressed on the breaks, realizing why that entrance lead to this particular road, it was a clear road right to the city, one long enough to read '88' anyway, she took her foot off the break and pressed the accelerator lightly, the DeLorean moving forward at the speed she chose, which for now was slow as she lined herself up. Finding she was in place she reversed herself up a bit, just to make sure.

"This should be interesting"

Roxanne said out loud, feeling as though her heart was breaking through her chest, she really trusted that this would work, and no way was she doubting Megamind's abilities, but still she could not help but feel terrified that something might go wrong.

Roxanne's foot quickly jumped from the break and onto the accelerator, she was almost glad that it was automatically changing gears as the speedometer climbed up, it had completely slipped her mind, and at this moment she was not in the mood for any multitasking, even if it was not that much effort to do.

Before she knew it she was reaching '50', still climbing at such a quick pace, she pushed a little harder on the pedal and the engine roared, numbers flickering past, road going by underneath her, there was a junction at the end of this road, and it was coming into view…

'80'

She started tensing up, gripping hard to the wheel, her knuckles going white.

'85'

She was starting to really doubt it now, her eyes started to automatically close.

'87'

"I'm going to die; I'm going to die…"

'88'

Sparks flew from the DeLorean, a bright light flooded into her eyes, or so it seemed, her eyes were still tightly shut… the smell of burning rubber drifted up her nose, it was too instantaneous for her to realise anything had happened but as soon as it did her foot pressed sharply onto the break and the DeLorean screeched to a halt… the stop caused her to jolt forwards, her grip tightening, she soon flew back, her eyes still tightly shut, the light was not as blinding for her, but she still had the light rushing past her eyelids and injecting her eyes.

"I'm dead, that's it… that can only be it, I died, oh god…"

Roxanne's eyes flickered opened, widening in surprise, and more so shock… her mouth had dropped down as she looked around, the sun was nearly at the highest point, the birds were flying around like nothing had changed, and she was in the exact same place, except in a different time… '1990' to be correct, she snapped away from the surroundings and her thoughts as she met the eyes of a random citizen who was frowning at her, feeling pretty stupid she pulled herself together and drove off.

Even though she knew this was the same city, and she had only gone back twenty two years… it really had changed. A lot. She could not even believe that she remembered most of how it looked, the rest just looked… strange, different… even alien to her, and yet she still could not get her head around any of it, it was unbelievable.

Roxanne drove herself around the city, trying to find herself a place to relax herself, maybe get a coffee, calm herself down for one thing, even though she knew what she was getting herself into, she did not expect herself to feel this… strange, it was her past, and it was weird to be re-living it.

She had found herself an old café that she remembered being torn down a few years ago, or even ten years in the future… she parked the car up and pulled the keys out of the ignition, her eyes staring down absently at the wheel.

"This is crazy"

Roxanne muttered to herself letting her head rest against the wheel, her eyes closing, yeah it really was crazy, she felt so out of place… no matter how true that was. She sucked in a breath and relaxed herself, before sitting back up and nodding her head, readying herself.

"Just remember what you're doing here, it will all be fine, you will get over it"

She told herself, suddenly realizing something… she had no money with her, it gets even better… Maybe Megamind had left a few things behind on when he tested the DeLorean out last time… as soon as she had thought about it she was shifting her eyes about searching for anything… there was nothing in here, she sighed and opened up the door, getting herself out, keeping in mind that she could easily hit her head on the door she bent herself a little before making her way to the back… a frown formed and she turned herself around and headed for the front… the engine's in the back, the boot in the front. Roxanne lifted it open and peered inside, not really staring at much, there was only a black suitcase and a brown box, and she leaned forwards and grabbed the box, opening it up… she found nothing, she put it back in and opened up the suitcase, her eyes widening, it was full of money, a year stamped on the plastic covering of each wad of cash, she closed the lid briefly and glanced around, at least no one had seen that they would have been wandering… Megamind had thought of everything, down to the last detail.

After locking up the DeLorean and taking some of the correct money from the suitcase she headed for the café. She opened the door and stepped inside, the large clock behind the counter reading 10:18 am, she shuffled forward, the guy behind the counter giving her a welcome smile.

"Good Morning Miss"

The guy said as Roxanne stopped in front of him, her eyes flickering from him to the menu just beside him.

"Yeah, Morning… can I just get a coffee please?"

"Certainly, I'll bring it over to you shortly"

Roxanne nodded her head, she turned herself away and headed to a table near the window, her eyes immediately glancing out, she knew where she needed to go next, Metro City Prison… only one problem with that, she had no idea how to get there, she had been yeah, only when she was younger, some field trip from what she can remember, but making her own way there would be a little trickier.

"Sorry for the wait, freshly ground coffee, had to warm it up for you, sugar and milk are on the table, and if you need anything else just ask"

Roxanne turned away from her thoughts and glanced up towards the male who had placed the coffee in front of her, the scent rushing up her nose, it smelt amazing, she smiled warmly.

"Thank you, that's perfect, and sure I will"

She said nodding a little before taking in another breath of the coffee, she then turned back to look at the guy who was getting ready for his next customer.

"Uh, excuse me? Sorry, Could you give me directions to the Metro City Prison please?"

She asked, finding that it would be easier to ask and find out now, rather than stop someone in the street; she had never really been fond of doing that, so why should she change that now. He had turned himself back to face her and took in her words, a smile forming on his face.

"Of course, don't worry about it… it's just outside the city, roughly a mile away, or so… just follow the main route out of the city, and you should see the turning, it's clearly marked so I doubt you will miss it… follow that road down and you should see the Prison"

He told her.

"Thank you"

Roxanne replied, he grinned and shook his head gently.

"Is there anything else?"

"No, that's all thank you"

She replied to him, he nodded his head and moved himself away making his way to the table that had just filled with a family, Roxanne looked down to her coffee then lifted it to her lips, ignoring the heat as it scorched her tongue and throat… almost immediately she was beginning to feel better, she could finally relax, and get on with the task at hand, and she knew that she needed to be quick.

The directions she had been given had really helped her out, and in no time she had the Prison in view, she pulled up at the back after being let through by the guard who was patrolling the perimeter. Roxanne stepped out of the car and headed in through the guests entrance. Stepping inside she was met by bars, and a window, she had no idea what she was doing but stood in place awaiting someone, anyone to let her inside.

"One of the parents? Girlfriends? Wife?"

A voice asked, seemingly giving up on guessing as he was running out on what she was in relation to any of them, she turned her head to see a guard sitting behind the window, black hair and deep brown eyes, she waited for a moment, giving him a chance just in case he wanted to add anything else… as there was nothing she shook her head and stepped closer pushing the keys into her pockets before placing her hands against the windowsill.

"No, I'm actually here to see Meg… the boy…"

Roxanne responded, instantly recovering herself. The guard gave her a weird look, a frown soon forming as his head cocked to the side.

"You're here to visit Lil Blue?"

Roxanne nodded her head instantly, not really needing to ask anything about the name given, it was clearly obvious.

"Yes, is that okay?"

She questioned, keeping her eyes on his, trying to see what he was thinking… although that was impossible, she knew that, she was just trying to read his body language. The guard stood to his feet and pulled a chain of keys out of his pocket.

"I'll fetch the Warden, won't be a minute… What's your name?"

"Roxanne Ritchi"

She said before watching him disappearing through a door in the back, Roxanne turned herself away and looked around the small entrance she was stood in, already she had spotted a security camera, and she was not even properly inside yet, though she could understand why it was needed in a place like this, anyone could be sneaking stuff in, and anyone could be sneaking out…

It was not long before the guard returned, with someone else by his side, the warden maybe?

"Miss Ritchi?"

The grey haired male asked, Roxanne turned and smiled towards him, nodding just slightly to give him an answer to the question.

"He's never had a visitor before, how do you know him?"

"I'm a friend, I first saw him at the school, just wanted to chat with him"

Roxanne responded, managing to quickly process something that was believable, the warden hesitated for a moment, but then nudged the guard next to him who jittered the keys about for a moment before finding the right one for the bars, he opened up the door and Roxanne stepped through, the door immediately closed and locked behind her.

"This way Miss Ritchi"

The warden said starting to walk; Roxanne glanced towards the guard for a moment before following on, quickly getting to his side.

"The best thing for him was that school, I thought if he did communicate with others of his age, then it might trigger something, that something I'm not sure yet, I'm sure it will come soon though, when was you at the school Miss Ritchi?"

The Warden asked her, Roxanne glanced over and shook her head, her thought process quickly moving.

"Every day so far, I've been monitoring certain situations there; I've err… been researching a few things"

Roxanne told him nearly losing that thought process; The Warden turned his head to glance at her and smiled warmly.

"You're Brave"

"Only when I need to be"

She replied almost instantly…

"Get yourself up you have a visitor"

The Warden said tapping the bars with his key, the boy stood himself up from his seated position on the bed, a few pieces of paper scattering on the ground, Roxanne came into view and the boy glanced up towards her, she could see worry instantly washing over him, she gave him a small and very soft smile to try and reassure that everything was okay, but he was already looking down to his feet, his arms folded behind his back. The Warden had unlocked the door and was pulling it across, he offered his arm out, indicating that Roxanne could enter, she whispered him a silent thank you and he nodded his head, before pulling the door back across and stepping back, Roxanne flashed him a small grin and The Warden realized what it was for.

"I'll leave you two for a moment"

He told them before leaving almost before he could finish his sentence.

"Who are you?"

Roxanne glanced towards the boy, his small voice barely audible, she tilted her head a little, she could not see his face, he was still looking down to his feet, she smiled slightly and stepped closer to him, he side glanced and turned himself to face the wall, his hands still behind his back and holding a small orb type… two big brown eyes glaring towards her, as if trying to figure her out, she knew instantly who it was, it was Minion, and from what she could see from his face, he was wary, he had always looked after Megamind from the start, she just never knew it would be such a close bond they had, maybe she should understand it more.

"My name Roxanne, Roxanne Ritchi… I'm your friend, is it okay if we talk?"

Roxanne questioned him, the 8 year old turned himself around and glanced up to her, pulling his arms around, as well as Minion and holding him at his front, his bright green eyes finding her blue ones, those held so much beauty within them, from looking into Megamind's she could see that… but now, as she stares into his, they are still beautiful, but they are empty, full of nothing, even the colour of them seems faded, it breaks her heart seeing him like this, so run down, so without hope.

"I'm Lil Blue, or just blue… to be honest I don't really know what suits me more, everyone else seems to call it me, and so you can to"

The boy said to her, glancing down to the ground, not being able to keep the eye contact for very long, he seemed so nervous… so fragile, almost on breaking point.

"It's wonderful to meet you Lil Blue"

Roxanne said, why should she stand around and make him uncomfortable? She sighed deeply and moved herself past him, sitting herself down on the bed, making sure not to sit on any of his work of course.

"Wow what are you drawing here?"

Roxanne asked picking up a piece of paper, for an 8 year old, the picture was perfect… and it was also something very familiar… looking down the side of the picture was a bunch of scribbled out names, and she looked down to the new one which was at the bottom…

"Brain Bot? I like it, very nice drawing as well, you have some talent"

Roxanne said looking up to him, she spotted him staring her way, and before her compliment she could tell he had been worried about her response to them, but he seemed to like her outcome. She smiled warmly at him and placed down the picture just on top of the others; she moved them to one side and tapped the space next to her.

"Don't worry; I'm not going to hurt you"

Roxanne assured him, although soon after she realized it was not really the most clever thing in the world to be saying to him, Lil Blue hesitated for a moment before stepping slowly forwards and perching himself on the edge of the bed in the space that had been provided.

"Do you like drawing?"

She questioned him, receiving nothing but a nod.

"What's your favourite thing to draw?"

Roxanne watched him closely, glancing down to Minion who was staring up to Lil Blue with an encouraging smile, Lil Blue did not move, all he did was speak, still staring towards the orb shaped fish bowl.

"I like to draw… what I see in my mind"

"So everything here is what you see?"

Roxanne asked glancing around, he nodded his head slowly.

"There stuff I'd like to make"

Roxanne grinned and looked towards him.

"You know what? I think they are wonderful, and who's to stop you from creating them, they are absolutely fantastic, and you know what, I'm sure one day you will be able to recreate every single one of them"

Lil Blue glanced up when hearing this, his green eyes meeting her blue ones, a soft smile visible, and a soft purple tinge meeting his cheeks.

"You really think so?"

"I know so"

Roxanne told him, seeing something spark in those wonderful eyes of his, but it did not last long, the spark was only short lived, and he looked back down.

"Nobody believes I can do it, they say that's it's just my overactive mind, playing stupid tricks on me, they even said that my birthday is stupid and pointless"

Lil Blue replied, his voice dying down a little near the end, but still she managed to grasp what he had said, she hesitated but then placed her hand gently on his shoulder, trying to comfort him.

"Who says that? When is your birthday?"

She asked him, she actually was interested to find out, Megamind had never really spoke too much about his childhood, only what she could get out of him, even getting his birthday out of him was the worst, she never even knew when it was, he just told her to leave it and would always go in some sort of depressive stage.

"Everyone… and it's tomorrow"

Lil Blue muttered to her, Roxanne's eyes widened and she glanced around for a moment.

"Well you know what Lil Blue?

Lil Blue glanced up towards her, his eyes once again meeting hers, he was waiting for her words, and she would give them to him.

"You need to stick up for yourself, be brave, carry out your dreams, no matter what they are, your mind is not playing stupid little tricks on you, it is simply giving you ideas, ideas in which you can deal with in your own time, not anyone else but you… and never ever believe it when they say your birthday is pointless or stupid, because that is not true… it's very important, and that is the one day where you are the one in charge, you are the centre of attention… it is where you are the one who should be treated right."

Roxanne said smiling warmly as she gazed into his eyes, she seemed to be understanding very well what she was saying, she could see it all just by looking into his eyes, it was amazing to see what she could see.

"Sorry Miss Ritchi, but you will need to leave now; we don't really allow visits to be too long"

The Warden said, Roxanne glanced around to look at him and Lil Blue looked down once again, she pushed herself up only to be stopped by a small hand wrapping around her wrist, she turned back and looked towards him.

"Will you please come see me tomorrow?"

Lil Blue asked her, a questioning, hoping look in his eyes, she glanced around and up to the Warden.

"Would that be okay?"

The Warden nodded his head.

"The visiting times are 9:00am 11:00am and 1:00pm"

Roxanne looked back around to Lil Blue and pulled her arm up gently, slipping her hand into his small one.

"I promise you I will be here, spot on 11 o'clock"

Lil Blue smiled and nodded his head before pulling his hand away and letting her go, Roxanne stepped out and the Warden turned to lock the door up, Roxanne gave Lil Blue a wave, receiving one back and headed out of the prison.

Roxanne sat herself in the DeLorean, staring towards the Prison, she knew in there Lil Blue sat lost in his own thoughts, the outcast of the whole place, the whole world even, but she knew she could change that, and that was what she was going to do, she had the whole day ahead of her know, and yeah she was in a time machine and could easily make her way home, with just enough time to come back to see him the next day… but she thought it would be nicer to have a look around the place, stay in 1990 for the night, would be fun seeing this place as it was when she was young.

She glanced towards the clock as it read 11:25am, a smile formed and an idea flashed through her mind, she knew exactly what to get Lil Blue for his birthday, and now was the time to get it for him.
