Here's the newest chapter of this story! It's time for a climax in 2067. After all, the key to being able to time travel again is going to be revealed today (and that's not the only thing that's going to be revealed). I should shut up now before I tell you what's going to happen today... Anyway, here are my responses to your reviews and then the chapter:

iluvninjagoTNSBFWgirl: Thanks for reviewing! Maybe he will be okay, maybe he won't. We'll see.

PurpleNicole531: She's the most responsible person right now. We'll see if they get their powers back - I think it's time for a 2067 climax. Thanks for reviewing!

TKDP: Thanks for reviewing! It apparently is that serious. Well, the sentinels grazed his side, not his hand. They were there to kill everyone. Yes, it is hard to live with, especially in such a severe case. You could say Fred's in a better shape than Bret and Chet.

Enjoy!

April 18, 2067

A few days have passed since the sentinels attacked the base. Cyd and Shelby had stayed in the new base instead of going to school. Jay continued doing his daily routine and Frey continued to go to school. She would have told Liz Cyd and Shelby were ill and had to stay home for a while if she had been present at school. Frey hadn't seen Liz since that day at school – she had no idea where she could be, though she believed the sentinels had something to do with it. Fred was recovering in the hospital, but his condition still is critical. After all, it had only been three days since the sentinel scratched his side. Frey visited him frequently, but the doctors told her she'd be one of the first to know when he wakes up, along with Fred's parents.

While life continued for Frey and Jay, Cyd and Shelby had taken the opportunity to think about what could have taken away their powers. They considered everything, looked up everything all technological companies had made (especially Eisenberg Technologies). They even tried to ask Jay about what they had invented, but he didn't want to break routine to talk to them. Only during one of his 'free' moments, they were able to talk to him. For a boy who doesn't go to school anymore, he was like a walking history book when it came to the history of Eisenberg Technologies. Only when he mentioned an idea and some blueprints which his father should have destroyed, Cyd and Shelby thought they had a chance of figuring out what really happened.

When Frey came back from school, they immediately went to tell her their theory.

"Frey!" Cyd drew her attention, "We think we know what's blocking our powers." Frey turned her head to them.

"Really?" she asked them.

"Yes," Shelby said, "We got the idea when we talked to Jay."

"He told us that Barry and Naldo were working on the blueprints for a device that could potentially block a time traveler's powers," Cyd continued.

"Jay told us that they eventually rejected the idea and that Julius had to destroy them."

"But Jay also said he believed his father did not destroy those blueprints."

"We were thinking that Julius or the sentinels built that device!" Cyd and Shelby were proud of themselves because they figured it out together. The silence that followed while they were waiting for Frey's response could be considered disappointing.

"Well, if Jay thinks a device like that was built, then it was built," Frey eventually said. "Let's go." She walked past them into the corridor that would lead to the bedrooms. Cyd and Shelby looked at each other, shrugged and then followed her into her own room. They saw she had just put down her backpack and was programming something on her watch. Normally, she'd start making her homework when she came home to have a free evening.

"What are you doing?" Cyd asked her.

"Changing the current coordinates to the ones of Eisenberg Technologies," Frey said, looking up to the time travelers, "This is a chance for you to go home. I'm sure you can't wait to go back. I know I would if I got stuck in a different time." Cyd and Shelby looked at each other again.

"So we're going immediately?" Shelby wondered.

"Yep," Frey responded, "We'll be going to the main entrance of Eisenberg Technologies. Too bad these watches can't transport anyone inside a building." Once she was finished programming the buildings' coordinates, she asked for the watches Cyd and Shelby still were wearing. They handed them over and then Frey put the coordinates of the building in it, giving it back when she was finished. Together they walked to Jay's room.

They stopped in front of his closed door. Frey knocked once. "Jay, it's time," she then said, "We're going to Eisenberg Technologies to bring Cyd and Shelby back home." Not much later, the door opened and Jay came out of it, holding the bar in his hand, nodding at Frey.

"About time we go there. I suggest that, once we are there, you follow me."

"Follow you?" Frey wondered out loud. She had no idea what Jay meant. He looked at her.

"I have studied the map of that building. I sometimes went there to explore, though I never really got far. There was never enough time to see the entire building." He looked at her and couldn't recognize the surprise in her eyes, but decided not to ask what that facial expression means, as usual. Cyd and Shelby were displaying the same emotion, looking at each other instead of one of the Eisenberg siblings.

"Since when have you been doing that?" Frey eventually said. Jay shrugged.

"Since this started," he responded, "I figured that if I wanted to take down the sentinels, I needed to know everything about them and the places where they are manufactured. Eisenberg Technologies never stopped being a potential main headquarters because that was where they were first made. I would not be surprised if their mainframe was located there." Their mouths fell open. So that was the reason why he knew so much about Eisenberg Technologies. Cyd and Shelby were surprised he was capable of doing that, especially after everything they've seen him do since they arrived. Frey recovered quickly and continued to look at him.

"You'd better set the coordinates to…" she began, but Jay interrupted her.

"I already did that when they arrived. I had a feeling we would have to go to Eisenberg Technologies eventually." He showed them one of his rare smiles when Frey stared at him with disbelief, "Let me guess – you did not think I had it in me, am I right?" Frey sighed and smiled at him too.

"You're full of surprises, Jay," she said, and started to look around. "Before we go, is there anything else that needs to be said?" Nobody said anything; Cyd and Shelby shook their heads and Jay just stared at Frey. She then shrugged.

"Okay then. Please follow Jay and stay with him for as long as possible. Let's go!" They all pushed the red button on the watch, waiting for it to take them to Eisenberg Technologies. Jay tightened his grasp on the bar right before he disappeared. No second later, Frey, Cyd and Shelby disappeared, too. They all reappeared in front of Eisenberg Technologies.

They all took a second to look at the building. The building was about four floors tall and a hundred yards wide. The Eisenberg Technologies logo hung above the main entrance and showed them in what state they could expect the inside to look like: old and rotten. A single car stood in one of the many parking lots, probably forgotten by the previous owner. The door in front of them was open.

"Is safe to come here?" Shelby wondered.

"Maybe," Jay responded, "I suggest you stay close to me. I know my way." Jay walked to the door. Without hesitation, the girls followed him, afraid to walk these grounds all alone. He guided them through the building. What they saw wasn't what they expected. They had expected it to look as if someone's been here and destroyed everything except the structures that make sure the building still stands. It just looked as if nobody had come here in a very long time. Everything was either covered with white blankets or a layer of dust. They were surprised the lights still worked. They turned left once they entered it and at the end of the hallway, Jay found the room he was looking for.

This must've been one of the security rooms in the building, or maybe the only one. There were four big screens in the room along with a whole lot of machinery of which Cyd and Shelby didn't know what it could be used for. The screens were out, obviously, but Jay was looking for a way to make them work again.

"Jay, what are we doing here?" Frey asked out loud, "We're supposed to look for the device that…"

"These cameras record everything in this building," Jay interrupted her, "This is the fastest way to finding where it is. I tried this before and it worked. There is sound with the images. We will find it." Not much later after he said that, the screens got back to working. Each of the screens was split into four parts, showing them a total of sixteen places. The locations changed every ten seconds, flashing to the screen on the right until it eventually disappeared from their sight, making place for recordings of other rooms. The number of the room was written down in the right corner. The tech was a bit obsolete, but it worked just fine.

The screens had to change four times before they could see a room that wasn't as dusty or dirty as the other ones. It looked like the dust was wiped off of it just a week ago. Several lights on the large were flickering. It must be very easy to shut that one down, because there was a lever attached to it, currently pointing at "ON". There was an "OFF" if you turned the lever 180 degrees.

"There!" Cyd yelled, pointing at the image. "Room 4-26B!" Everyone turned their heads and after a short analysis, they agreed they were going to shut it off. They were about to walk out when the images changed again.

If Shelby hadn't caught a glimpse of the screen closest to the door, they would've left the future a lot sooner. She stopped and walked closer to get a better look. Cyd, Frey and Jay came back for her. "Shelbs, what are you doing?" Cyd asked. She wanted to continue, but forgot her question as soon as she saw what Shelby was staring at. "Are those Liz and Naldo?" And indeed, they saw Naldo and his granddaughter sitting on chairs, locked up in what once served as a conference room for this company's scientists. They could still move freely, but they sure couldn't leave the room.

"Yes, that's them," Frey said, "This is what I was afraid of. The sentinels use this building as a temporary prison."

"We can't leave without saving them," Shelby said and Cyd nodded.

"Agreed. Let's go save Liz and Naldo!" Luckily, Jay and Frey approved of that action. They looked at the screen and memorized the room where they were supposed to be – they were on this floor, just a few rooms back from where they came from. They went to the room and Jay used his bar to break down the door.

Liz and Naldo couldn't have been more surprised to see anyone in their entire lives. "Liz, are you okay?" Frey immediately asked, running to her. Liz nodded.

"I will be," she said. Her voice was a bit shaky, "I don't get it. How… how did you find us? Why did you do it? Not that I don't appreciate what you did, but you're not supposed to be here. Is that Jay?" she added when she recognized the boy, "You told us he died. We went to the funeral!"

"It is a long story," Jay said, "In short: I faked it. It was easier for me to stay off the radar." He pointed at Cyd and Shelby, "These girls next to me are time travelers who got stuck here. We came to bring them back home." Cyd and Shelby glared at him, which he didn't notice. They lived with the secret for so long and trusted them with it. It wasn't nice of him to just say it without asking them if it's okay he told them.

Liz' mouth fell open and she looked at Frey, who nodded. She then turned her head to her grandfather, who was now close to Cyd and Shelby. "Felicity…" he began, "These are the girls from the picture. These are Cyd and Shelby, my friends when I was young." Liz had a confused look on her face, not knowing who to look at.

"I'm not even going to ask how that's possible," Liz eventually said, focusing on Frey again, "Thanks for saving us. For a moment, I thought we'd be stuck in here with him forever!"

"Him?" Frey asked, "who is 'him'? Is it a sentinel?" Liz shook her head.

"It's not a sentinel. It was a man. I thought grandpa recognized him…" she trailed off, looking at her grandfather. Soon, Cyd, Shelby and the Eisenberg siblings were staring at Naldo. He sighed, looking mainly at the Eisenberg siblings.

"For as long as I can remember, I wished I'd see a familiar face again. I wished I wasn't the last man standing, longing to meet someone from my past again. I did. Cyd and Shelby, off course, but also your father, Julius Eisenberg." Jay and Frey looked at each other, then back at Naldo.

"That is impossible," Jay muttered, "Our father died many years ago." he looked at Naldo, who nodded.

"I thought it was impossible, too. But we recognized each other. Only Barry and your father ever called me Renaldo." While he was talking, Jay shook his head, looking away from everyone, turning his back to them.

"Our father is dead. He is not alive. He… he cannot be…" Frey knew what was going to happen and she walked to him. She positioned herself in front of him so Jay could see her clearly. This time, she only put a hand on his shoulder.

"Jay, calm down. We couldn't have prepared for this, okay? I am shocked like you, and angry, too, but he must have had his reasons, okay? There's nothing wrong with that." Jay eventually nodded and he grew calmer again. He gently pushed Frey's hand off of his shoulder when he was calm again.

"He mentioned having to stay in the CEO's office," Naldo continued, having waited patiently for Jay to calm down, "I don't believe the sentinels are keeping him as a prisoner. Something's off about the situation." Cyd and Shelby believed the situation. Their so-called dead father survived whatever the sentinels were doing and has been here for a while. That sounded a bit suspicious to them.

"I have to see it," Jay then said, "It cannot be my father…"

"Jay, I know you want proof, but what about the device?" Frey then asked her brother. All he could do was shrug. He had no idea what to do now: follow the original plan or go to the CEO's office to proof their father was really dead.

"What device?" Liz then asked her. Frey turned her head to them and Liz expected an answer from her, but she got one from Shelby.

"The device that's keeping us stuck in this time. It's in room 4-26B. We wanted to do this as fast as possible so we can go back home before the sentinels figure out we're here, but I guess Jay wants to meet his father." She pointed at Jay when she said the last phrase. He turned to her when she was finished talking.

"I cannot meet him, he died." He said it as if everyone knew that and accepted it as the truth.

"Yes, Jay," Fey tried again, "but it could be possible that…"

"He could not have survived; we will see that for ourselves." He didn't even look at her when he said that. Frey sighed. It was always like that when they were having an argument. He was right and everyone else was wrong, even if what they were saying was the truth, unless he was proven wrong.

"I'll do it." Everyone turned their heads to Liz, who had spoken up. "I'll turn off that machine." They stared at her with widened eyes – all except Naldo.

"Felicity…" he began, but Liz didn't let him continue.

"You can go with Frey and Jay to their dad. I'll turn of the machine," she then turned from Cyd and Shelby to her grandfather, "They saved us, grandpa. It's the least I can do for them." Naldo eventually sighed and gave her a smile.

"Felicity… Liz…" He sighed again, trying to find the right words, "Be careful, okay. I remember that room is on the fourth floor. I'll wait down here – I won't be able to climb so much stairs." Liz nodded and she gave Naldo a big hug. She looked up when they were done.

"I'll see you in a few minutes," she said with a small smile. "Frey, I still have your number from that one time. I'll call you when it's turned off." Then she left the room, on her way to find room 4-26B. It could take longer than expected, but at least she would try to find it as soon as possible. Naldo watched her leave and once she was out of sight, he turned to the remaining teenagers.

"The CEO's room is at the other side of the building, at the end of that hallway." He waited a moment, "Good luck." He added.

"Thanks." Cyd said "See you in 2016." Naldo nodded and they left together. They continued to walk to the other side of the building, in search of the CEO's office. It wasn't too hard to find – they were lucky the tag on the door hadn't fallen off already. Jay was the one to open the unlocked door. They all entered it and then noticed the man inside the office.

He was looking out the window when the teenagers came in. He turned around to see who had entered the office. His lab coat was worn-out and it looked like it could never really turn white again. He had short light brown hair and brown eyes like Frey's. He wore glasses, which he pushed up his nose again. He couldn't take his eyes off of the siblings.

Cyd and Shelby looked from the man to Frey and Jay, to see how they reacted. Jay didn't move, stared at the man. He tightened the grasp on his bar. He was shocked and surprised, they guessed, but they couldn't be sure because it was Jay. Frey, on the other hand, held her hands in front of her mouth and nose, her eyes getting watery. Like Jay, she couldn't believe this was really happening either.

"Frey? Jay? Is that you?" the man said, unsure what to think about the situation. That was all the proof they needed. Frey couldn't stop herself anymore and she ran straight to him, grabbing him in a hug, crying on his shoulder. Julius was at first unsure what was going on, but then comforted his daughter, barely able to hold back tears himself.

The family was reunited.
