Beca woke up in Chloe's bed the next morning. She had a little bit of a headache, but it wasn't terrible. She sat up, realizing Chloe wasn't there, "Chlo?"

She pulled the blanket aside and swung her legs over the edge of the bed. Okay, maybe this headache was a little worse than she thought. She pressed tightly on her temples and got up. As she made her way to the door, she heard arguing on the other side. She decided to listen before going out there, making sure she didn't think about anything just in case the mind reader could hear her.

"Chloe, what the hell are you thinking?" This person was obviously Aubrey, "Are you seriously even considering this?"

"Well, we don't have much of a choice, Bree. It's either this or she's gonna go Dark," Chloe sighed, "I've tried to think of so many other possibilities, but I can't think of anything else."

"How do you even know that the person who just came out of the blue was really Beca? It could have been a Mimicker," the blonde continued to argue.

"It was her, okay? I know Beca. She's my soulmate," Chloe was obviously starting to get frustrated, "Look, I really don't want her to be Dark. I've seen how it has torn you up and I don't want things to end up like that because you and I both know that Beca won't listen as well as Jesse does. I would rather her overthrow this whole stupid system so we can be together. If she does that, maybe you and Jesse can finally be together again."

"I'm not so sure about that," Aubrey said quietly.

"What? Why?" the ginger asked.

"I don't think he's my soulmate anymore," she said.

"What?!" Chloe burst out, "Why do you think that? You found someone else, didn't you. I thought you said you felt that click when you met Jesse."

"I did, I guess, but it wasn't until we got to know each other. When you saw Beca, you said you felt that click instantly. Well, I think I did with someone else," Aubrey smiled.

"Oh my gosh! Who is it?" the mind reader asked excitedly.

"Do you remember the auditions?" the blonde asked almost shyly.

"I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! It's that girl! Um, Stacie, right? I totally knew it. You were basically undressing her with your eyes during her audition," Chloe squealed.

"Okay, ew, no. I was not. I was just surprised that I felt the click. I didn't know what to do because I thought Jesse was my soulmate, but now I don't know," Aubrey sighed, "And shut up. I don't want Beca to hear about this. I just know she'll give me shit for it."

Beca smirked and took this time to open the door, "Wow, Aubrey."

"Oh my God. You were eavesdropping! You little shit!" the Igniter yelled as her hands were obviously borderline on fire.

"Chill out, hothead. I'm not judging you," Beca laughed.

Chloe giggled, "Cut it out."

"You know she has a dorm she can live in, right?" Aubrey crossed her arms as she began to cool down.

"You know I'm right here, right? So you don't need to talk about me," the brunette said as she walked past them. Aubrey took the opportunity to shoot a tiny ball of fire right at Beca's ass. Beca jumped, covering where it hit, "Ow! Asshole!"

Aubrey snickered, "Leave if you want."

Beca lifted her hand and caused a nearby picture to hit Aubrey in the head, "I don't think so."

The blonde rubbed her head, "That's it," she said as her hands actually caught fire this time.

The DJ lifted her hands again and barely twitched her fingers, causing many random objects to come up around her, "Bring it."

"Okay, that's enough," Chloe stepped between them.

"Oh come on, babe. We're just having fun," Beca smirked.

"Stop it. You're gonna make her burn the building down," the redhead said sternly.

"Fine," Beca sighed as she put the things back.

Aubrey stepped back and cooled down once again, "Whatever."

"We have to get back to future you, Becs," Chloe said, "Get ready. You're going through training today."

Beca groaned, "Can't I get something to eat first?"

"You can have a protein shake or something on the way," the redhead replied, "Now go get ready."

Beca pouted like a toddler and sighed, "Fine. I have to go back to my dorm to get clothes."

"Get to it," Chloe smiled as Beca left.

Aubrey rolled her eyes, "Don't forget about Bellas practice."

"Be prepared for a grumpy Beca then because that will probably be right after her training with her future self," Chloe told her.

"I still can't believe you're going to let her even attempt this. If she screws up, they'll kill her," the blonde sighed.

"Well, I have a lot of faith in Beca. She knows what she's doing. Besides, there's more to it," the mind reader looked at the floor.

"Like what?" Aubrey asked.

"Uh," Chloe looked at a clock on the wall, "Would you look at the time? Looks like I have to get Beca to train!" She quickly gathered up her things and headed out the door, "See you later, Bree!"

With that, Chloe was out the door. Aubrey stood there for a moment, "Seriously?" she muttered to herself as she went to her room to go study.

Beca and Chloe met up right outside the DJ's dorm building. The redhead handed Beca a protein shake that she grabbed before leaving her apartment, "Thanks," she smiled, taking a drink.

"You're welcome," Chloe smiled back.

"Just so you know, this thing is disgusting," Beca said.

"They're not that bad," the ginger laughed.

Beca grimaced as she took another drink, "Yeah, they are. I'm only drinking it because I need the energy."

"Let's just get to your training," Chloe said, leading the way.

Beca followed close behind her, "You know you're training too, right?"

"Yes, I know," the mind reader giggled. After a few minutes of silence, "How weird is it?"

"How weird is what?" Beca asked.

"How weird is it to see yourself? I mean, it's weird for me to see two of you, but it must be even weirder for you since it's you," Chloe replied.

"Well, I guess it's kind of weird. I tried not to really look at her...me. It's still crazy. I can't believe what she, uh, I said, though," the Bender sighed.

"That I'm apparently dead?" the older woman asked.

"Yeah. I can't imagine how much pain the future me is going through. I know I would feel so lost, but knowing how you'll feel and actually feeling it are two completely different things," Beca looked at the ground as she walked, trying not to think about the world without Chloe. They soon got to the building where Beca from the future was staying, "Here we go."

Future Beca was sitting in the middle of the room meditating, "It's about time you two showed up."

"Sorry we don't wake up at first light," Beca retorted.

The brunette from the future looked at her old self and smiled, "Your attitude will help you in today's training."

"How exactly?" Chloe asked.

"We're going to do one-on-one training first. Then, we're going to add you in. You'll be Beca's eyes and ears. She will be blindfolded and have earplugs. You will have to tell her which way to move or how to block an attack without saying a word. You'll tell her with your powers without controlling her," Future Beca said.

Chloe looked worried, "Um, I can't exactly do that yet. It's hard not to control when you put a thought into someone's head."

"That's the reason we're training. If Beca is in a fight and you are in a position where you can't fight or control anyone else, you're going to have to help her somehow. You'll bond more this way. You'll probably only be able to do this with Beca for a while, but eventually, you'll be able to do it with virtually anyone that you see," the woman from the future said.

"If you say so," Chloe said skeptically.

Future Beca nodded, "I've seen you do it before, Chlo. You're just learning to do it a little sooner than before."

The redhead suddenly felt a pang of sadness. She knew this was Beca, but it wasn't her Beca. She knew this woman was suffering from losing her. Chloe walked over and hugged her, "Thank you for doing this, Becs. I'm sorry I can't be there for you in the future. "

She froze for a moment, "I-it's okay." As Chloe pulled back and smiled, Future Beca cleared her throat, "Okay, let's get on this one-on-one training, shall we?" she said to her younger self.

"What exactly are we doing?" the DJ asked, "And what's Chloe supposed to do while we do this?"

"Well, we're going to go into this other room. There's a window where she can stand out here and watch. She's going to watch how you fight. She has to figure that out before she can really use her power. It'll help both of you, so we're killing two birds with one stone," Future Beca said.

The ginger looked puzzled, "How is watching her supposed to help me?"

"By watching her movements, you can make sense of how she attacks and how she defends. You can tell her what to do without controlling her if you know how she moves," the future Bender told her.

"I guess that makes sense," Chloe smiled.

"Okay, but you didn't exactly tell me what we're gonna be doing in there," Beca crossed her arms.

"You'll see when we get in there," Future Beca said.

Beca sighed, knowing that was all her future self was going to let her know until they started, "Let's get this over with."

As the two brunettes walked into another room, Chloe found the window Future Beca was talking about. She stood there watching as Beca walked in with her older self, following behind her. Suddenly, Future Beca attacked the DJ, sending her flying forward.

"What the hell?!" Beca screamed as she turned around.

"Lesson number one, always be ready for anything," the future Bender said.

"That fucking hurt dude," the brunette muttered.

"It's in the past. You can either run from it or learn from it," Future Beca said as she raised her hand once again to repeat the attack, Beca raised her arms in an X and blocked it with her shield this time.

"Don't quote the Lion King, oh my God," Beca rolled her eyes.

Chloe banged on the window, "I thought you didn't like movies."

"What?" Beca looked over. She wasn't able to hear her well since the redhead was on the other side of the window.

"I thought-" Chloe started. Future Beca took this time to attack again, sending Beca flying once again.

"Lesson number two, never take your eyes off your opponent," Future Beca smirked.

Beca got back up and winced, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, stop with the typical lessons when it comes to fighting. Seriously, when do I get like this?"

"After I lost Chloe, so you shouldn't get like this," Future Beca replied.

"Thank God," Beca laughed, glancing over at Chloe. She was knocked down again.

"What the fuck did I just tell you? Don't take your eyes off your opponent," her future self scolded.

The Bender grunted, "I am about sick and tired of you doing that."

"Do something about it," Future Beca said.

The brunette made a shield in front of her and quickly looked around the room for something to throw at her older self.

"Good, you're learning, but there's nothing in here to send my way. You're going to have to use telekinetic blasts."

"I don't know how to fucking do that!"

"Then you better figure it out because that thing won't hold forever," Future Beca said as she sent a barrage of the telekinetic blasts at her younger self.

Beca winced, feeling as the shield was beginning to crack, 'How the fuck do I do this? How the FUCK do I do this?'

"Fucking quit!" Beca yelled, throwing her arms down. This caused the shield to push towards Future Beca who just blocked it.

"Channel that anger into your attacks. Feel that energy through your body and project it," Future Beca told her as she was about to continue her attack.

The younger Beca glared at her, "I swear to fucking God if you shoot one of those things at me again, I will fucking lose it."

Future Beca smirked as she shot one again. Beca managed to dodge that one and mimicked her older self in body movements. The older brunette made a shield around her and was slightly pushed back by the force. Beca was breathing heavily after this.

"Good job," her future self told her, "Let's take a break. There's no sense in draining your energy."

Beca was trying to catch her breath, "Yeah...great...that's...that's great."

The older Bender looked at the window and waved Chloe in, "Is there something wrong?" the redhead asked.

Future Beca shook her head, "Beca just needs a break. Telekinetic blasts take a bit of energy the first couple times it's used."

"Okay, so what am I supposed to do considering she can't do anything?" the mind reader asked.

"You know, for someone who can read minds, you sure ask a lot of questions. I never noticed before," Future Beca laughed.

"I've tried. You're blocking it somehow," Chloe crossed her arms.

"It's just like the shield Beca and I can produce. It doesn't have to be a full body one. We can put one around a specific body part to block anyone's powers," the older Beca said.

"Thank God," Beca said, causing Chloe to turn around and smack her arm, "Ow!"

"Rude," the ginger glared as Beca rubbed her arm.

"Anyways, you're starting your training now," Future Beca said as she sat on the floor, "Sit in front of me. You're going to practice with me first so you don't accidentally hurt Beca."

"I can hurt her?" Chloe asked with worry.

"Right now you can. Her energy is low. If you accidentally control her, you can cause her to do something to drain it," the older Bender said.

The redhead nodded, "Okay. So what am I supposed to do?"

"Try projecting a thought. If I feel you starting to control me, I'll block you out and you'll try again," she said.

The younger Beca sighed, "So what am I doing while you two do this?"

"Lay down and rest," Future Beca told her. Beca did as she was told for once while Chloe looked the older woman in the eyes and tried projecting her thoughts.

'What should I think? Well, she did say I'll have to help Beca with her movements so...Beca stand up,' she thought. Future Beca didn't do anything.

"Don't try so hard. You're trying and it's ending up trying to control me. Act like you want me to hear what you're thinking rather than acting like you want me to do what you're thinking," Future Beca instructed.

Chloe nodded, 'Okay, so think. Hey, Beca. You should stand up.'

"You're still trying too hard," she said.

The mind reader sighed and tried again. This went on for about thirty minutes before the woman from the future could even hear a small segment of what Chloe was thinking.

"Did I get it that time?" Chloe asked.

Future Beca smiled, "A little bit. I only heard 'don't try too,' but that's still a good. It's progress."

"This is bullshit," Beca said from her place on the floor, "You're being all nice with Chlo, but you had to beat my ass and yell at me when I couldn't do it."

"You know full and well that you wouldn't let me do that to her and that I wouldn't do it," Future Beca glared, using her powers to push Beca farther away from them.

"Hey!" the DJ tried to fight agaisnt it, but there wasn't anything to grab onto so she was just flailing her arms uselessly.

"Stay over there," her older self told her.

Beca shook her head and started to get up, "No way, dude. I'm sick of listening to you."

Future Beca just pushed Beca back down and kept her there as she looked back to Chloe, "I said stay."

"I'm not some fucking dog that you can just-" Beca started, but the future Bender made her close her mouth. The only noises coming from the younger woman were angry muffles now.

Chloe giggled, 'This is way too funny.'

Future Beca grinned, "I heard that."

"What?" the ginger looked at her in disbelif, "No way."

"You thought that was 'way too funny.' You did it, Chlo," she smiled.

"But I didn't even try," Chloe said.

"That's why it worked," the older brunette replied, "I think that's enough practice for today. We can do the other thing with Beca later. I think you've got Bellas practice to get to."

There was an even angrier muffle coming from Beca now. It had sounded like she tried to scream, "What?!" This caused Chloe to laugh, knowing Beca had no idea.

Future Beca let go of her younger self and Beca jumped up, "Are you serious?"

"Yeah, did I not mention it?" Chloe asked innocently.

"No, you fucking didn't," the brunette said grumpily.

"Sorry, Becs," the redhead giggled.

Yeah, fucking right.
