AN:Hey everybody, thanks for-
Adam: What was with last week?
Combination of terrible memory and homework. Ignoring the lack of an upload last week.
Adam: The people have started revolting. You have most likely gotten death threats.
Not yet, but I will say here that this series will be on hiatus.
Adam: And now I'm going to say something that most people are going to skip except for people who compulsively read everything. To make this easy, we don't own this, leave comments, questions, concerns, etc. in the reviews.
Hey! Some people like the intros!
Adam: Most just skip it. To the story!
Chapter 4:Confessions and
"Is it that obvious?" Adam asked. "Is what obvious?" Bailey asked as she walked in, yawning. "There's a little fault in the console. He told me what broke, and that it was obvious what it was. I asked, and then you walked in." Adam said, quickly formulating a lie. "She's not buying it!" The doctor warned. "Okay, I believe you." Bailey said. "Well that was easy." Adam said. "Regardless of the faults, I believe we should leave as soon as possible. It's gonna happen soon, I can feel it." Adam said ominously. Bailey looked at him. "Do you think we have any more powers that we will need in this fight?" "Not that I know of. I know that in the dream I think about what I want to become, then I become that animal. It's never the same animal, which means I can theoretically do any animal. You on the other hand, we know has telepathy. And in the dream, you become an animal too, so maybe that's a power you've got. Try it!" Adam responded. "Okay." Bailey said, and concentrated. After a minute or so, bailey transformed into a red panda. "That's so cool!" Bailey said, astonished at her abilities. "Thanks for saying that in here, because I don't think I would have understood otherwise." Adam replied. "See if you can turn back. In most books and movies you can, but I mean, just to be sure. It would be a little awkward to walk around DC with a red panda. They're cute and all, but not much help in a fight." he stated. "I'm also going to step out of the room. In most books the person only transforms, not their clothes." Adam finished before quickly walking a brief pause, Bailey was back to her normal self.
"Doctor! Tell us what's going on!" Adams mom, Samantha, yelled from the console room. "Hey, I'm gonna be right back. Gotta save the doctor from being dismembered by my mom." Adam thought to Bailey. "Mom, calm down. I'm sure there's a nonviolent solution to this." Adam said as he hastily entered the console room. In front of him, the doctor was staring at a screen on the console, which had circular characters flashing in red. Samantha, looking both concerned and angry, was standing next to him, tapping her foot. "Sure there is! Can you translate this?" Adams mom said, shoving the screen in his direction. "Give me a second..." Adam said. "Or you could just ask me!" The doctor interjected. "Last time we asked you something, you didn't give us a straight answer! It took us a half hour to find the bathroom!" Samantha insisted. "Guys, calm down. This can be easily resolved." Adam said, struggling to remain calm. "What does it say doctor?" "It says there's a rift opening above DC, and on the other side, there are things that are worse than all your nightmares combined. Imagine the scariest thing in the world, multiply the scary factor by 10, and you've got the most pleasant thing coming out of that rift." The doctor responded, cold and calculating. "Okay. Long story short, space time is gonna rip over DC, and out of the rip comes the stuff of nightmares, and worse." Adam translated.
"Want to talk nightmares? His about the nightmare child? The could've-been-King and his army of never-weres. That's just the tip of the iceberg." The doctor spat. "Okay, it couldn't be that bad right? You defeated them before!" Adam protested. "With a planet of advanced weaponry behind me! Right now I'm going to a gunfight with a stick. It's not even a knife!" The doctor said. "You have us." Bailey replied. "You will be slaughtered out there!" The doctor said. "Ah, then I'll turn into a starfish, then back again." Adam replied evenly. "And if you're incinerated..?" The doctor asked. "I'll try a Phoenix, and if that doesn't work, weeping angels." Adam countered. "You're gonna need some help regardless." Steven said. "Then I'll call in the Avengers!" Bailey retorted. "Remind me not to get on your bad side." Adam said. "Alright. I've landed us just outside DC airspace. You've got 45 seconds before we get hit by air-to-ground missiles." The doctor said. "Well, here goes nothing!" Adam said, and ran out the door, Bailey right behind him. As soon as they were outside the TARDIS, it disappeared. "Well, there goes our ride." Bailey said. "On the bright side, they have everything sectioned off." Adam said. "The section we couldn't get into is the main part of the capital. If we don't want to be late, we need to go now." "This way!" Bailey said automatically. As they ran, Adam asked," how do you know where you're going?" "I just do! I don't know how, it's like remembering in reverse." Bailey said. When they got to the Lincoln Memorial, they stopped. "Got to get a look from above. You thinkin what I'm thinkin?" Adam asked.
"Climb a tree, go eagle, and land on the top?" Bailey responded. "Works for me!" Adam replied, and they both started climbing the nearest tree. "You sure you don't have any other powers?" Bailey asked. "If I knew I'd tell ya." Adam responded. "Wait. Let me try something." Adam concentrated, then wings sprouted out of his back, 12 feet across. "Maximum ride anyone?" Adam asked. "I'm gonna do a full bird. Less likely to be pointed out." Bailey responded, smirking. "What?" Adam responded, defensive," what did I do?" "Nothing!" She responded. "I wonder what you would look like with wings. Maybe even more beautiful than you do now, if that's possible..." Adam thought. "Yeah not to interrupt, but A: I can hear you, and B: does a rift opening look like that? Because I think it looks like that." Bailey said, quickly changing topic. "Crap! Forgot about that!" Adam said. "Yeah we should probably check that out." "Thank you! Don't want to die today!" Bailey said. "But if we do," Adam started. "We won't. I know we'll make it. I don't have your Early Warning System, but I can tell. You're gonna make someone very happy some day. But you can't do that if your dead!" Bailey said with a smile. "I hope I do." Adam said, staring at Bailey. "Right!" Bailey said, startling Adam from his daydream. "We need to take care of whatever comes out of there, or else we aren't gonna be around for much longer." Bailey stated. "Look, just let me say this before we start fighting to the death." Adam interrupted. "I'm just gonna say it. I've had a crush on you from the moment I met you. When I met you, something clicked, and I know now that I to spend the rest of my life with you." Bailey blushed. "I kinda like you too." "Well, now that we know that, we can fight for each other. Make sure we come out alive for the sake of each other." Adam said as he turned into a cardinal, and flew towards the crack in the sky, Bailey close behind as an eagle.
