Hello, everyone. Sorry for the long wait, but here's another short chapter of this story. Here we go.


In front of Chariton home

The portal spiraled open before the home of Sunni and Darcy, and the two girls dropped out as it vanished. "We made it!" Darcy exclaimed.

"We'll return this time machine to Haylee later." Sunni decided. "Let's go see how Mom feels!"

The two girls approached the front door and used their spare key to open it. "Moom, we're ho... huh?" As they entered the house, they found two kids sitting on the couch: a boy in a red t-shirt, brown eyes, black plants, and black hair was sitting with a girl with mocha skin, midnight-blue eyes, long, brown hair, and a purple skirt.

The girl called, "MOOOM, there're two strange girls at the door!"

The psychokinetic woman herself walked in, offering a smile at Sunni and Darcy. "Oh? And who might you be?"

Sunni and Darcy exchanged confused glances. "M-Mom... it's us." Sunni said. "Sunni and Darcy. Your daughters."

"Sunni and Darcy?..." Mika began to think. "Why do those names sound familiar... Anyway, I only have one daughter, and a son. These are Hannah and Jason. The Dimalanta twins!" The boy and girl grinned and waved.

Sunni and Darcy's mouths dropped. "DIMALANTA TWINS? ?"

"Matthewww. Could you come in here?" Mika called.

Mr. Matthew Dimalanta walked in. "What is it, Mika?"

"MR. DIMALANTA? ? !" Sunni and Darcy screamed.

"Honey, do we know these kids?"

Matthew observed the two girls. "Hmm... can't say that I do. Why?"

"They... say they're our daughters."

"Hm... maybe they're orphans. Like my friend, Jeremiah."

"WHAT? !" Sunni shouted. "We're not orphans! ! We're your kids, Mom!"

"Mr. Dimalanta, what happened to Yin?" Darcy asked.

"Yin?" Matt questioned. "Hmm... I remember I met a girl named Yin. She was kinda cute... 'course, that was before I met Mika in sixth grade, after I came back to Philippine." Mika grinned at this.

"Well, what about Rainier?" Sunni asked.

"O-kay, don't remember anybody named Rainier." Mika said, looking baffled.

"Uuugh! ! This is ridiculous! !" Sunni cried, grabbing her mother by the skirt. "Mom, it's us! ! We're your daughters! We're psychic, like you! !"

"H-Hey, take it easyy!" Mika yelled as Sunni shook her.

Matt hurried to grab the phone. "I don't know who you kids are, but I'm calling the police if you don't leave."

"BUT THIS IS-" Sunni was silenced by Darcy.

"Um, we're sorry to disturb you. We'll get going now." And with that, Darcy led her sister out, quietly closing the door.

The sisters ran several feet away from the house before stopping to catch their breath. "I don't think they'll listen." Darcy said.

"I don't underSTAND!" Sunni yelled. "Why is Mom married to Matthew? !"

"Well, obviously, when we went back in time to save her parents, something must've happened to cause her to be married to Matthew. ...And WE no longer exist."

"WHAT? !" Sunni screamed once again, taking her sister by the shirt. "WHADDYOU MEAN WE DON'T EXIST? ! THEN WHY ARE WE HERE?"

"I'm guessing we're in Limbo," Darcy figured, "and cut off with the actual timeline. Even though we can talk to people. But there's no reason to panic."

"NO REASON TO PANIC? ! ?" Sunni grabbed and shook her sister by the shirt again. "WE'RE TWO SISTERS TRAPPED IN LIMBO AND THERE'S NO REASON TO PANIC? WE COULD FADE AWAY AT ANY SECOND, WE-" Sunni finally stopped when the two felt the earth begin to shake.

An explosion of smoke appeared several feet away, revealing the image of a tall being in a dark cloak. "It...IT'S THE GRIM REAPER!" Sunni screamed.

"No it's not. It's the Fairy King!" Darcy exclaimed.

"It is true!" said the muscular fairy, pulling off his hood. "I, Jorgen Von Strangle, toughest fairy in the universe, have caught on to your meddling with the timeline. Now, as punishment, I will have you banished to the Realm of Kids-Who-Interfere-With-The-Timeline, -Causing-Themselves-From-Ever-Being-Born!" He looked away and said to himself, "MAN, that's a breath-taker! I really have to come up with shorter names. Anyway, you are... HUH?" When he turned back, the girls had vanished. "No! They must have escaped when I vas talking about how I need to come up with shorter names! I must get after them and take them to the place with the really-long name I just told them about!" With that, the powerful fairy bolted down the street.

Sunni and Darcy were crouched behind a bush, watching the fairy vanish down the street. They breathed a sigh of relief once he was gone. "Okay, let's start piecing this together." Sunni suggested. "So, somehow, by rescuing our mom's parents, she ended up meeting Mr. Dimalanta, falling in love, and getting married to him."

"Oh!" Darcy sparked with realization. "I think I get it! Since we rescued our mom and her parents, our mom never wound up on New Island, where she stayed with Mewtwo! Then I guess she never got pulled into that quest, where she met our dad on Planet Secco. They must've returned to the Philippines, where our mom eventually met Mr. Dimalanta in school."

"Oh, no! Then they ended up getting married and having their own kids!" Sunni realized. "We've gotta go back and fix this!"

"That's gonna be a problem." Darcy stated, pulling out the worn-out time machine. "The Time Staff returned to Mr. King. Or Clockwork… whoever's using it in this time. Boy, time travel is confusing." They then watched as Time Dust spilled out of a slot in the machine, grey and worn out.

Sunni observed the grey dust and scooped it in her hands. "If only we knew where another timebender is. They could make us some Time Dust. Or something…"

Darcy's mind sparked again. "What a second! I remember… hearing this story… about a timebending alien that's lived on this planet for more than 80 years. What's his name… Roger?"

"Oh, yeah!" Sunni exclaimed. "I remember! That one that supposedly lives in Langley Falls? I heard he's some kind of master of disguise."

"But he's also a timebender," Darcy reminded, "and likely our only chance. I say we look for him."

"But these are all just rumors, really. What if he doesn't exist?"

"All rumors have some kind of origin." Darcy smirked. "If there's a chance he doesn't exist… then he definitely exists."

"Heh. Well, we have nowhere else. But how're we gonna get to Langley Falls, teleport?"

"Worth a shot." Darcy shrugged. "Just imagine you're in an alleyway or something."

"Okay… on 3:" They shut their eyes tight and began, "One… two… three!" And in a flash, the girls were gone.

A lone male citizen then walked by the bush they hid behind, becoming startled when Jorgen ran up to him from behind. "Vait! Excuse me. I am looking for two telekinetic girls who are not supposed to exist. Have you seen them?"

The man stared creepily at the towering figure in the dark cloak. "POLIIIIICE!"

Squads of cop cars and ambulances sped out of nowhere as cops stepped out and took aim at the fairy. "No! Vait! I must find them and take them to a horrible place with a long name! Dyaaaaahhhh!" The tall fairy hurried away as the cops gave chase.

Langley Falls

The teleportation did indeed work for the girls. They appeared midair above a dumpster, dropping inside as the dumpster fell closed. They slowly creaked the dumpster lid open, all covered in crash as Sunni looked aggravated. "Hehe… maybe we need to be a little more specific next time." Darcy joked.

The girls climbed out as Darcy brushed the garbage off, while Sunni exploded a barrier to blow hers off, getting Darcy covered again. The mocha-skinned psychicbender then picked up a discarded newspaper. "Hm… well, we're in the right place. And Darcy, check this out!" Darcy brushed her garbage off and looked over her sister's shoulder. "'Sightings of a strange, grey alien in the woods.' Taken by Parker Peters." A picture showed the image of a naked, chubby alien with six fingers, six toes, and a huge, round, bald head.

"'No one knows where this strange being originates." Darcy read. "'Suspicions continue to surround… the Smith home.'"

They exchanged curious glances. "Hmmmmm…"

Outside of Smith home

The girls made their way out of town and passed down a neighborhood. They approached a yellow house with a flagpole, and a mailbox that read The Smiths. They quietly approached the house and crouched down as they peeked through a window. Inside, a slightly wrinkly man in a blue suit and large chin was angrily yelling at a grey-skinned short man in a red shirt, khaki pants, brown hair, and brown goatee. "Roger, I told you to be careful with these personas! Snapping photos of yourself? Didn't you learn your lesson the first time?"

"Gee, sorry, Stan, but you know me." the short man replied. "After all the work I do for people, I need to feel self-righteous every now and again."

"You're always like that!"

"I… don't think so."

"Ever since we've met, you've been using these messed-up personas of yours to get something you want!"

"Nope, no, that doesn't sound like me at all. If you need me, I'll be in the attic, thinking up a way I can get free cable for a month." With that, the being was gone upstairs.

"Could that be him?" Darcy whispered.

"Maybe. Let's check the attic."

The two snuck around and looked up at a window below the roof. Using their agility, they jumped their way to the top of the roof, where Sunni hung her head upside-down to look through the window. The man pulled a bag of some kind of dust from his drawer, dumping it onto the table as he tried to inhale some through a straw into his nose. "Eh… they never make good crystal meth like they used to."

Sunni and Darcy swiftly flipped into the window, drawing their light sabers as Sunni yelled, "Freeze!"

The man turned and held his hands up, looking terrified. "Oh God… I knew it was only a matter of time before two Filipino women would try to cut me. Look, ladies, there's plenty of spare change in the jar, just don't take my old films!"

"Noo!" Sunni yelled. "We're not here for THAT!"

"Are you… Roger the Alien?" Darcy asked.

"Roger? My name is Parker Peters, and the only alien is this bastard I'm trying to catch."

"Oh, cut the act, we know all about your disguises." Sunni stated. "We were eavesdropping downstairs."

Roger sighed. "Well-p, there's no hiding it now." The alien took off his wig and clothes, revealing his alien form underneath. "Hi, my name's Roger. I'm an alien."

"Coulda left the clothing on…" Sunni mumbled, shielding her eyes.

Darcy shook her head and replied, "Listen, we need your help. You're a timebender, right?"

"Well, I dunno about that. But I can move really, really fast. It's like time is slowing around me."

"Sounds timebender-ish to me." Sunni shrugged. "Listen, my sister and I sort of… messed something up in the past, and we need a timebender to help us get back so we can fix it."

"Well, kids, you're all outta luck there." Roger said. "I only know how to slow things down, you want me to warp anywhere, find me some meth."

"Can you at least make us some Time Dust?"

"I can make protoplasm." Roger smiled as gallons of goo exploded from his body.

"Euuuuhhh!" The girls groaned. "No, we need some Time Dust to try and get this machine working!" Sunni yelled. "This is all we have!" She then presented the bag of grey dust to Roger.

Roger observed the bag intently and took it in his hand. "You know, I think I may be able to help you."

"You… can?" Darcy asked.

"E-yep. One whiff of this stuff, and I'm set for Rush Zone." The alien dumped the dust along his table and grabbed his straw. "I have problems controlling this stuff, so you'll need to tell me how far back you wanna go."

"Take us to about July 12 of 200-" Darcy was about to say.

"No!" Sunni intervened. "Take us back to the city of Roxas in, maybe, September 1, 2011. That's about when our mom went to sixth grade."

"What? ! Why are we going there?" Darcy questioned.

"To stop her from falling in love with Mr. Dimalanta! Duuh!"

"Sunniii! Haven't we ruined the past ENOUGH? ? We have to go back and undo what we did before!"

"You mean letting an innocent little girl's parents die? We can't do that! We just have to make sure our mom falls in love with our dad again, and everything's all better!"

"Sunni, I'm really not sure about this. Frankly, in the past your plans have gone a little… astray."

"Pssh, is that supposed to be a time travel joke?"

"Heh." Darcy chuckled. "You know, it kind of is."

"Darcy, I know I might've messed up a little, but this time, I'm sure we can fix things! You just gotta trust me!"

Darcy sighed. "Well… what if it doesn't?"

"Then we'll keep trying! Roger, take us to September of 2011!"

"Well-p, if you say so. 9/11 it is."

Sunni and Darcy exchanged worried glances. "N-No-no, SEPTEMBER of 2011!" Sunni corrected.

"I know. Isn't that what I said?"

"No, you said... never mind."

"Okay then." With that, the alien stuck the straw into his "nose" and proceeded to inhale some of the worn Time Dust. Suddenly, his pupils expanded in size, his eyes widened. "Grab my arms."

"Get the Time Dust!" Sunni ordered quickly. Darcy quickly scooped the dust into the bag before they both grabbed onto Roger's arms.

"Okay, girls: hold on tight!" And in the blink of an eye, all three were gone.

The girls held tight onto Roger as the alien soared them across a colorful dimension of flowers, unicorns, and many wavy patterns. Sunni and Darcy stared with amazement, while Roger's expression was of peace and serenity. As they flew across the colorful plain, a feeling of calmness and relaxation overtook them. It lasted for a few more seconds before they appeared along the sidewalk of a street, where Sunni and Darcy dropped into two trash cans. They poked their heads out as Roger turned to them.

"Well, here we are. Roxas of September 1, 2011. Now, I'm gonna check if this place has any good strip clubs, look for me downtown when ya wanna go back." With that, the alien left them to themselves.

Sunni and Darcy climbed out of the trash cans and proceeded to shake the garbage off. "Okay… now we just need to find the school our mom went to and stop her from falling in love with Matthew." Sunni said.

"Right." Darcy brushed a banana peel off and replied, "But if we mess things up again, we're going back to stop ourselves from saving them."

Sunni released a sigh, unsure about this. But, she nodded anyway. "Okay."


Hoo. Sorry it wasn't longer, but I guess I wanted to upload something real quick. I've been a little preoccupied with story writing. NEW SUPER MARIO U! ! ! ! So yeah, you'd think a five-day weekend would be plenty of time, but it's not. -_- Next time, Sunni and Darcy try to set their parents up in the past… and fail. -_- Later.
