Part Four
Tarrant went barreling through the sky towards the perfectly arranged landscape of Suburbia.
He directed the Chronosphere towards the looming black castle on the top of the hill overlooking the neighborhood, and braced himself as he tried to land the contraption in a clear patch of the garden.
Despite his efforts to land the Chronosphere cleanly, he still jolted it to the ground. As soon as he landed, the Chronosphere folded back up into the small golden sphere.
Tarrant carefully placed the sphere in his pocket, and walked silently towards the castle.
He jumped as a small blue car pulled up to the front gate. The door opened, and a lady dressed in a prim lavender outfit.
She walked through the gates into the front garden, and automatically gasped.
Tarrant smiled as he remembered that his reaction wasn't that different from her's when he first saw the garden.
She looked around in wonder as she walked through the paths towards the front door.
She opened the door, and walked inside, calling, "Hello? Avon calling!"
(Tarrant didn't know what Avon was, and neither did Edward, but apparently Peg was some sort of representative for it.)
She looked around at the room, then walked up the stairs, calling, "You don't have to be afraid of me! I'm just your friendly Avon representative!"
Tarrant followed her silently up the stairs, not wanting to be seen because he didn't really feel like explaining how he stole a time machine from Time.
Peg walked onto the landing at the top of the first flight of stairs, and found another set of stairs waiting for her.
She laughed, and said as she walked up the new flight of stairs, "Wow, these stairs are really something, aren't they? Ha ha, thank goodness for those aerobics... classes..."
Her sentence trailed off as she saw the enormous hole in the ceiling of the attic.
She walked into the attic, and looked around her, then said, "Hello? You don't have to be afraid of me, I'm just an Avon representtative, I'm as harmless as cherry... pie. I'm sorry, I've disturbed you. I'll just be leaving."
She had seen the crouched figure of Edward in the corner, and seen the silouette of his menacing scissorhands as he stood up.
Tarrant smiled, because he knew that Edward wouldn't hurt a fly.
Edward said in his awfully shy voice, "Don't go."
Peg said, "What happened?" referencing his hands.
Edward held up his hands in front of him, and said, "I'm not finished."
Peg screamed, "Put those down! Keep away from me!"
Once Edward had lowered his hands, and she recovered a little bit, she said, "Where are your parents? Your mother? Your father?"
Edward bowed his head, and murmured, "He didn't wake up."
Peg offered a friendly smile, saw the multiple cuts and scars on his face, then said, "Here, let me apply some anti-infectant, to help prevent infection."
She pulled a small bottle and some quetips out from her purse, and started dabbing some of the liquid on his cuts.
Edward winced as some of the liquid stung a little bit, and Peg said, "It's alright."
Once she was done applying the anti-infectant, she said, "I'll take you home with me, 'kay?"
Edward nodded, and offered a small smile.
Tarrant smiled, but the panicked a little bit as they walked toawdr him on the stairs.
He ducked inside a random room as they headed down to Peg's car.
Tarrant exited the castle, and threw the Chronosphere onto the ground, and entered the Ocean of Time again.
Tarrant steered the Chronosphere through the Ocean, then finally found the day he was looking for; the day that Edward killed Jim, and Kim left him alone in the castle.
He drove the Chronosphere into the day, and found himself flying over the same neighborhood, except this time it was night-time.
He attempted to land the Chronosphere without crashing it like before, and almost succeeded.
He saw most of the neighbors chasing Kim and Edward into the castle grounds, and decided to wait around.
He saw Jim stagger into the castle, and something about it clicked in Tarrant's mind.
He thought, "If Edward doesn't kill Jim, thenKim won't leave. I've got to take care of Jim."
He walked into the castle after Jim, and followed him up the stairs.
Tarrant gathered up his courage, and grabbed Jim's shoulder, and aimed a wild punch at Jim's face.
Jim took the punch hard, but wiped the blood from his chin, and continued staggering up the stairs.
Tarrant grabbed him again, and started pummeling him with punches, but Jim shoved him into the wall, and continued on his way to the attic.
Tarrant groaned, but forced himself to stand up, but it was too late.
Jim was already running towards Edward and Kim.
Jim knocked Edward onto the ground, and started punching him relentlessly.
Kim screamed, "Leave him alone!" and hit Jim on the back of the head with a nearby plank of wood.
Jim just turned around, and slapped her hard across the face.
Edward's face contorted into an angry glare, and he threw Jim off of him.
Jim just smiled a devilish smile, and pulled out a handgun.
Tarrant yelled, and jogged Jim's hand just as he squeezed the trigger.
Jim screamed, and threw Tarrant into the wall, where he passed out in a blur of pain.
Jim threw Edward to the ground, and held the gun to his head.
Kim screamed, and threw Jim off of Edward, and held one of Edward's hands to Jim's neck.
She growled, "Stop it, or I swear I will kill you myself."
Jim just slapped her across the face again, sending her sprawling across the floor.
Edward screamed, and thrust one of his blades deep into Jim's chest.
His face contorted into an almost inrecognizable glare as he walked forward, pushing Jim out of the window.
Tarrant woke up just as Jim went falling to the ground below, and he groaned, "No."
He picked himself up from the ground, and left the castle before Edward and Kim could ask any questions.
He stumbled into the garden, and remembered what Time had said, "You cannot change the past, but you might learn something from it."
Tarrant groaned as he threw the Chronosphere onto the ground, and climbed inside the machine.
He started it, and flew into the Ocean of Time, searching for another day.
He finally found it; the day when Kim was sent to the asylum.
