Chapter 4: Captured and Escape
Kyle was covered in blood, practically soaked in it. The soldier that gripped him down was now in peieces of guts and blood. They didn't know how to react, but to see that Kyle's right arm, was formed in long spikes and enlarged, making it longer then his other arm. It then formed back to a normal arm.
"Sorry about that," he said. His sleeve of his trench coat was now gone and ripped, and of when his arm formed. From the top of his arm layed a Ouroboros tattoo.
"That tattoo!" Dr. Gettinburg noticed it, "But it can't be! You're a…a," "A Homunculus," Kyle answered for him.
"What!?" Dr. Tate said shocked. "But that can't be! Homunculi aren't even real! There just a physicist's legend," she explained.
"If there not real, then how did I become this?" Kyle asked her, "Without my mother, I wouldn't be here; after all I'm only half of a homunculus."
"Half!? So your mother is a homunculus?" Dr. Gettinburg couldn't believe his eyes.
"But that can't be possible, Homunculi cannot produce children, their unreal beings who are made mass of different flesh! There practically rag dolls!" Dr. Tate explained more uncontrollably.
"Unless, the future has found a way to create them!?" Dr. Gettinburg realized.
"What are you talking about? Homunculi have been walking on this planet since Jesus was crucified; they've been created and done before any of us were even born!" Matt told him.
"But there's no way a homunculus can give birth!" Dr. Tate told the future children.
"Not unless they were turned human," Kyle added.
Kai stared off at Kyle, wide eyed and amazed of what his future son has become. He didn't know how else to feel, even though this was more extraordinary then beyblading, it was definitely something he didn't realize.
"All the same, I should research this even more, but until then, Soldiers! Take him!" Dr. Gettinburg ordered.
"Don't even!" Kyle yelled out at Dr. Gettinburg, and he flipped over the soldiers, shot five down, and then shot bullets straight at the soldiers gripping down his friends. When their legs were shot, they fell to the ground, releasing his friends.
"Alright!" Matt was pleased, and he shot out a whip of water that appeared from his finger tips at Dr. Gettingburg, and it took from his hand, his mother's necklace. "This belongs to me!" he said to him.
Keira quickly kicked the side of a soldier's face that gripped down her dad and he fell tot eh floor. The rest of the soldier's that stood in a line holding down Dr. Tate and the Bladebreakers let go of them and quickly went over to take Keira down, when behind them, Alan appeared and a beam of light pushed them all forward into a pile which Keira quickly dodged walking to one side away from them. Hilary looked at Alan who was smiling warmly back at her, it was something of a hero smile he had in him. And Hilary liked that very much.
"This can't be happening!" Dr. Gettinburg screamed. "Oh it's happening," Rex appeared behind him.
Dr. Gettinburg quickly turned around to find Rex standing behind him, grinning. "I always wanted to do this," He said, and he threw a punch at Dr. Gettinburg's face, breaking his half moon glasses, the impact made him fall on his back.
"Oh come on, you could've shared!" Matt was disappointed at Rex.
"You can have him, he's still conscious," Rex told him, and he went bringing out his sword, running to the nearest soldier, and with a slice of his sword that blew up with flames, a long withering line of fire came seeping out at the soldiers.
"Body Slam!" Keira screamed, Matt noticed and saw that Keira body slammed Dr. Gettinburg on top of him, and went off running, then flying off as the winds carried her, over the soldiers and with a swift of her hand, winds came out of nowhere blowing them off like little grains of dirt being blown and washed off by a strong impact of a hose.
"Sweet Jesus, I think it's time to go!" Matt said to Alan and Kyle who appeared after reloading his pistol.
"Agree, get Rex and Keira together with our parents, I'm gonna fly you guys out of here," Alan told them.
Matt and Kyle went to get Rex and Keira, and as soon as they were done punching and flaming off some soldiers, they went to their parents in a group circle.
"Okay, everyone stay close to each other, I don't want to lose any of you!" Alan told them. The group got closer, with Alan in the middle, he formed a round red ball that came out from his hands, and spread around the group, with that Alan lifted his hands in the air, and they flew off in the air. Practically breaking the glass roof, they flew off over the Sea Bay City. However Alan had a hard time holding everyone any longer, as the weight was more then he can handle.
"What's wrong?" Hilary asked him.
"I've never carried so many people like this before," he said, and the giant red bubble suddenly flowed downward toward where grass and fields are, not knowing he was landing right near Tyson's dojo.
They all crashed when the giant red bubble burst, and everyone trampled on one another.
They all groaned and moaned as the pain hit them from crashing.
"Ah man, that's gonna leave a mark!" Matt groaned trying to sit up.
The bladebreakers all got up, they weren't hurt as their future children were, but the crash didn't seem to be that bad. Dr. Tate didn't even felt that hurt, but they all looked at them like they were moaning sick puppies.
Matt tried to stand up as so did Alan, but Matt collapsed on the ground breathing breathlessly.
"Are you okay?" Max asked his son.
"I'm just tired," Matt breathed out. "You're tired?!" Alan breathed out breathlessly, "You didn't have to carry more then 10 people practically on your back." He then collapsed on his back, breathing, putting his arm over his eyes.
"How can you guys be tired?" Tyson said, "You practically didn't break a sweat!"
Keira giggled breathlessly, and then she hiccupped all the air she was breathing in and out. "You didn't fight off armed soldiers and crazy cookoo face back there."
"Yeah, we practically wasted our energy saving ourselves and protecting you," Rex breathlessly had to say after scoffing for awhile. He was quit amused with the situation they were in.
"It doesn't matter, we can't go home anyways," Kiera mumbled gloomily.
They all stopped smiling breathlessly and realized she was right. They can't go home, now that they beaten the pulp out of the government's SWAT team, and the crazy cookoo face after it was his fault for bringing them here. Now there going to have to find a way to get back home. But it doesn't look like some other scientist will be carrying a time machine with them. Like the kids mentioned before, time traveling is illegal, and look at the problem it's got into them.
"Come on, there's gotta be another way to get you guys back home!" Hilary tried to cheer them, "Were just going to have to look a little bit harder, we'll even help you!"
"Hilary, since when did you believed in science fiction?" Tyson asked her sarcastically.
"But we got to help them! I mean you heard what they said, the Universe well be destroyed if we don't get them back home and fix this!" Hilary told Tyson like it was really a matter of life and death, and the funny thing is that, it was.
"You know Ms. Hilary," Keira said, she was looking up at her while she was still lying down on the grass field they all crashed on. "I always like you, even when I was kid you always raised my spirits up!"
"She's right, Mrs. Fu-I mean Ms. Hilary always did make our sad days turn to happy days." Rex said.
"And she's right about one thing," Kyle mentioned, he was standing up looking afar from the fields to see Tyson's dojo, "There's another way to get back home, we just need to try harder."
Hilary felt like she was glistened up from pretty fairy dust, Tyson seemed too noticed, feeling defeated he changed the subject, "So!" he yelled out, pushing Hilary away from him, "where are you guys going to stay?"
All of them looked at each other, seeking for answers, but got nothing from any of them.
"The zoo..?" Matt said when he really just wanted to break the silence.
"I guess you guys can stay with us!" Tyson then decided.
They all agreed, going off to Tyson's house. Tyson however remembered something he was still holding in his palm for the last few hours since the destruction at the center. He looked at his palm to find he was still holding the future Dragoon Beyblade.
"Oh yeah! Keira!" he yelled to get her attention. They all stopped to wait; Keira twirled around, her long hair twirling back like she was on a shampoo commercial.
"I got this to give back to you," he put Dragoon in her palm, and there she smiled beautifully, what Tyson didn't expect was her huge bear hug she gave him.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!" she squealed.
"Let go of me!" Tyson mumbled loudly.
Kiera let go and then she whispered over to Max and said, "He secretly likes it."
They went off again, but all were still in their hazing thoughts. Now that they were gone from the center, there are other things they need to worry about. The bladebreakers looked at the backs of their future children, since as a group; they were the ones walking up in the front. They all wondered of the same thing. Does the apple really fall far off the tree?
There were the other things they each personally thought of their children. The abilities they had, the things they confessed, and their personalities.
In some ways, Hilary was very satisfied with Alan; he was smart, cute, charming, and very modest and wise. However she felt very bad of asking him who he really was. The things he could, was probably much more then what the other future kids could do, but that's just what she so far saw. She began to wonder how Alan became what he is. What was the cause of it? Was it a freak accident? Or was a genetic disorder? Maybe he inherited from his father?! Hilary gasped thinking, though no one heard it but Ray, who walked beside her. She wondered if she will be able to find out about her future husband, if Alan would give hints or give her little things about him. He probably wouldn't say anything, but let her wait and guess. There was thing that Hilary didn't have was patience. It looks like Alan has a lot of it, and wondered if the patience feeling was from his father. But then again, kids don't grow up to be like their parents. And that she should totally agree with.
'Are you okay?" Ray asked her about her gasp.
"Huh?" Hilary was interrupted by her thoughts. "Yeah, I'm fine, just…thinking." She slowly went back into her thoughts.
Ray returned to his thoughts too. He stared at the back of Rex, looking at his Chinese sword that hung on his back by a belt of some kind. He wondered how Rex became to be able to do fire. He seen it done by magicians, but Rex did like it was natural instincts. He wondered how it could be that he was his son. He didn't look like him, unless he's half Chinese and looks like his mother. Ray didn't want to think about his future wife though, that was way too awkward and strange to hear about a girl he would someday meet and live the rest of his life with. No, he wondered mostly about Rex and his personality. He was completely different then him, yet he had more of a freed personality and was probably more modest then he was. He looked as if he had a very happy childhood, in fact all of them did, but Rex had the most smiles. More then Keira who was mostly smiling all the time. He didn't quit understand how Rex was himself. But that made him wondered about Ray. Ray wondered of his life in the future, was it good? There's always going to be upside downs, but still, was it something adventurous? Something amazing? And did Beyblading have anything to do with it?
Max had many questions to ask Matt. Dozens or thousands perhaps, but he kept them all to himself. For he worried if it might insult him. He stared at the back of Matt, wondering about everything of him? How old is he? Where did he come from? And where exactly did he learn how to use water? He used it like it was a weapon or something? He froze it, rose on it, and breathed in it practically. He had a strange glowing aura on him that made him impossibly human. There was no way this boy was human, he was completely different when it came to personality, but then he thought of that necklace he wore. His mother gave that to him? Who was she? And what was she like? Max did want to know, but didn't at the same time. He wondered if he really wanted to know, and wanted to know about his life as a father in general. What did he work for? What was his career that he did? Because Max was positive he didn't know what to do in his life.
Tyson, compare to everyone, felt disappointed in his future child. One thing was that she was a girl, an annoying loud and confusing girl. Keira wasn't like any other girl he has met before; she was pretty but strangely wild and somewhat smart but very random. He couldn't quit get over how he could pass on Dragoon to her; she looked like she didn't Beyblade at all. She looked like she liked shopping and parties and hung out with friends, but that's all he seemed to think when looking at her. He wondered if she even uses the sword she had tied to her waist. Then he wondered about all that acrobatic stuff she can do, and every time she's around, winds start to form around her. Keira was definitely different, very different. She's different then all of them, but is she even like him? Cool and a world champion? Probably not, but he didn't expect his future child to be like him. But then again, he didn't really think of anything of his future family life, it was just him as the world champion.
Kai was all as well quiet as a cricket, but when he spoke it was something quit mocking or important, but this time he wanted to keep clear and quit as he stared at the back of Kyle. His glares had got to him wondering more then he should. Of what he just confessed to everyone, of him being this Homunculus, didn't quit make sense to him. Of what Dr. Tate has mentioned, Kyle was a half charred and masses of flesh that was like some rag doll. His right arm could form into any object he wanted it. And he's definitely not afraid to kill. Kyle was dangerous more then any of them. He was either a snake or a monster. And he hid many secrets. When he confessed of being a homunculus, Kai guessed that maybe that was one of the smaller secrets. Or maybe not a secret at all. His friends knew obviously, but they all seemed to feel nervous and uncomfortable when he and Kyle talk to each other or share glances. What did he have against him? And then again, what did Kai feel of what he have against Kyle. Both of them couldn't share a room together without feeling tensed. Kai even wondered about the priest collar, what was that for? Why is he dressed as a follow of God? Kai didn't surely believe God or the big boom, but he did wonder what he ever could have done in his life, about Kyle Hiwitari.
When they got to the dojo, the future children didn't seem to notice it, but were so tired, without the Bladebreakers realizing it, they all fell asleep in the Bladebreakers' futons. They were fast asleep except Kyle, who sat and leaned against a wall, pulling out his reading glasses and read a small black book which was a Bible.
"Unbelievable!" Kenny shouted, but it wasn't loud enough to wake all of them.
"There all so asleep," Max mentioned.
"I guess Time traveling is really tiring." Tyson mentioned.
"You can't blame them though," Dr. Tate came in the conversation, "After all, they fought to protect us and helped us out to escape, if it weren't for them, we be still locked up from Dr. Gettingburg's henchmen."
"She's right," Hilary agreed with Dr. Tate, "They fought really hard, they deserve some rest."
"Well okay then, But where are we going to sleep?" Kenny asked.
They all looked over at Kyle who was reading. Compare to Kai, he looked very calm when he read. Almost too calm and handsome.
Why aren't you sleeping?" Tyson asked him.
Kyle didn't bother to look off of what he was reading; he just answered bluntly, "Homunculi don't sleep." And that's all he ever said through out the day.
The future children, soundly asleep felt everything that happened today was just a dream. Each of them dreaming of other things, their minds in a haze, yet they all laying in their futons comfortable like any other kids. Keira didn't bother to braid her hair when going to sleep, so her long straight hair practically fanned out across the floor and pillow her head sat on. Matt's arms were comfortably stuffed under his pillow, pulling towards so his face can feel the cool cotton against his skin. Rex didn't bother to take his jacket off, but he silently lay asleep with his arms crossed over his head, and his head tilted to one side. Alan looked the calmest when asleep compare to all of the other future children. His maroon hair was a little fanned out, his bangs covering parts of his face, yet his arm over his stomach, made him looked like he was the calmest and beautiful child there ever was. They all stared at them, knowing these were their children they were someday going to have. The Bladebreakers however felt like it was dream as well, just staring at them, knowing that their real, made them think, that their was no way it was real.
