Chapter 2. Some people seemed a little confused about the first one, so I hope this one makes more sense. ~Tygger
Chapter 2
Nora woke up with a killer head ach, no side affects my ass! She thought, Maybe Aunt Gwendolyn isn't as good at this as she thought?
"Hey, are you okay?" a girls voice called and Norry looked around for the source, only to find a much younger version of her Aunt jogging towards her.
"I'm fine, I think." She said stumbling to her feet, Gwendolyn grabbing her shoulder as she almost fell, "Thanks."
"No problem," Gwendolyn helped her to a bench and sat her down, "What's your name?"
"Um, Noradean." She said rubbing her head, "Nora, usually though."
"Nice to meet you Nora," She smiled, "I'm Gwen."
Nora glanced up at her in surprise, "Gwen? Not Gwendolyn?"
She looked taken aback, "Well, yeah, its sort for Gwendolyn, how did you know that?"
"Um, maybe I should introduce myself properly," she smiled, "I am Noradean Tennyson, the first daughter of Benjamin and Julie Tennyson. I come from the future or to be more precise, the future you sent me to the past."
"Wow, Ben's daughter…" She grinned, "Oh yeah, you know, in that little episode we had where we ended up in the future, I think I met you! You were only four."
"I think I remember that!" Nora smiled, "So, Mom, Dad, you, Uncle Kevin, Aunt Iggi, Uncle Jim, Uncle Mitch, Aunt Kate, Aunt Elena and Auntie Ing are all teenagers? Oh, except Ing, she was younger."
"Uh, let's see, Jules, Ben, Me, Kev, Iggi, Jim and Len are all teenagers." Gwen nodded, "But we must still be predating Mitch, Kate and Ing 'because I haven't heard from them yet. I can't wait for them to show up though."
Nora nodded, "Good to know. What about Grumpy Max?"
She nodded, "Grandpa's around here somewhere. Hey, I should probably take you to the base so that everyone else knows you're here. Uh, let's try to break the whole father-daughter thing gently to Ben, he's a bit slow."
"Some people never change, but good idea." She bit her lip, "I'm kinda mad at Daddy right now, so I can live with him just being Ben for a bit."
"What's he done now?" Gwen asked.
"What hasn't he done?" Nora shook her head, "Hey, do my cloths look okay for this time period?"
Gwen checked out Nora's clothing choices for the day, tall, tight, black leather boots were just visible under a long black coat with a white fur lining. She nodded, "They look fine, but aren't you a bit warm in that coat?"
"Yeah, a bit, it's September when I'm coming from." She pealed off the coat to reveal a black school skirt that barley covered her upper thigh, what appeared to be a black, strapless bra and a black cardigan with white fur trim, "Still okay?"
"Yeah, if you don't mind getting some looks from guys." Gwen shrugged.
"Oh it doesn't bother me…" She smirked, "But it bothers Daddy, he gets mad when I leave the house dressed in anything skimpier than a t-shirt and long shorts."
"I know exactly how you feel." Gwen rolled her eyes, "My Daddy's the same way. I swear I'll never be like that with my kids."
"Funny because you and Uncle Kevin are the same way with Kay…" She trailed off, "I probably shouldn't mention that. Oh, and remind me to stop using the whole Aunt and Uncle thing while I'm here."
"Good idea, it's just in here." She said as they entered the garage.
"A garage… Oh, look, its Kev's car! You know he still has this thing when I'm coming form. Course, it flies and has rocket launchers and shields and all that stuff." She rolled her eyes, "And there's Daddy's car. Boy's and their toy's, eh? He never lets me drive!"
"Yeah, well, legally he can't drive it yet. It's a good thing he's never been pulled over." Gwen groaned, "Come on, it's down this way… oh and drop the Daddy and Mom thing, too."
Gwen pulled the wrench that opened the secret door to the elevator, "Good idea, wow, Sweet." Nora said glancing around, "Why is all of this stuff so secret-like?"
Gwen shrugged as the elevator reached the bottom, "People don't know about the Plumbers yet. We're still a secret organization."
"Gwen!" The voice came from a boy who was slightly familiar looking to Nora, in fact, he looked a lot like an older Kenny with paler skin and lighter more chocolaty hair, "Gwen… oh, who's this?"
"Oh, uh, guys, this is Noradean," She momentarily caught Kevin's eye, "She's from the future."
"Okay, cool." Ben hesitated, "What's this got to do with us?"
Nora's eyebrows raised as she realized that he didn't get it, "Your future, Dip-shit!"
"So why'd you come back to this time?" Elena asked.
"Because I'm mad at the Benjamin from my time," She stated a little more coldly then she meant to, "Besides, the future Gwen thought this might help patch thing up a bit."
"Why are you mad at me?" Ben asked, taken aback.
"You missed my brother's birthday party… again." She frowned, "You promised you'd be there."
"So I missed one birthday, what's the big problem?" Ben rolled his eyes.
"You never listen, do you?" She glared at him, "I said, again, you've known Max for thirteen years when I'm coming from and you've only actually made it to two birthday parties. Unfortunately for once, I have to agree with Un… with Kevin, when it really matters, you're never there."
"Oh," Ben looked almost disappointed in himself, "So, wait, in the future, how do I know you?"
She froze, scrambling for an answer, "Um…"
He frowned, "Are you Ken's kid?"
"Yes!" She inwardly sighed, thankful for the cover, "Yes I am."
"I knew it!" He grinned, "You look just like him."
Gwen stared at Nora, confused, "Really? I'm not seeing it."
"Well," Kevin interrupted, "You can work on seeing it later. We're getting reports of a space ship coming in for a crash landing in the park, we might want to get over there and at least do some crowd control."
"Right," Ben nodded, suddenly all business, "Lets go."
I'm sad that Ben is that thick, but he is in the show, too.
Ben - "Are you Ken's kid?"
Nora - "No you twit, I'm half asian!"
Ben - "So..."
Nora - "Think, Stupid! Who here has an asian girlfriend?"
Ben - "Oh..."
