Erik floated down. He wore more normal like clothes and had no cape or helmet.
"Daddy!" exclaimed Lorna.
She ran over and gave her father a hug.
"Hello, Princess," said Erik.
"I knew you were still alive," said Future Pietro.
Erik nodded.
"It's nice to see you again, Dad."
"It's good to see you too, Son. We better leave. Recovery sentinels are probably om their way."
"Hey, everyone!" shouted Pietro, when he got back to the mansion.
Rachel, Charlie, Kate, Billy and Tommy, T.J., Haley, Warren and Juana, and Paula ran over.
"Tro! Where have you been?" asked Charlie.
"With us, Son," said David.
The new generation gasped when they saw their parents. Charlie ran over to his dad and they hugged. Rachel, tears streaming down her cheeks, ran to her dad and buried her face in his chest, crying tears of joy. Tommy and Billy ran to Wanda and T.J. ran to Kurt. Lance held Kate as she sobbed in his chest. She was so happy both her parents were alive. Haley got a hug from both Alex and Lorna. The twins Juana and Warren ran to Laura and Paula ran to Future Pietro.
"Papa! Mom!" cried Paula, happy.
"Dad, I thought I'd never see you again!" exclaimed Rachel.
"Mom, Dad, I'm so glad you're here!" said Kate.
"It's nice to see they're all reunited," Erik said to Pietro.
"Yeah," agreed Pietro, smiling.
Laura sniffed the air.
"Logan's here," she said.
"Aw, Laur, you gave me away."
Pietro turned around and saw Logan. He looked the same.
"Hey, Logan, where ya been?" asked Lance.
"Huntin'," answered Logan.
"Found what you were looking for?" asked Scott.
"Oh yeah."
"Hey, we need to figure out this date unit thing," said Alex.
"Right," said David. "Let's get it to the lab."
"Hardy and Mirah can figure it out," said Charlie.
They were. Hardy gave Pietro the file with the info.
"Give that to the Professor when you get back," said Hardy.
"Right," said Pietro, nodding.
"Pietro," said Kate.
"Yes," said the two Pietros.
Everyone laughed.
"Not Present Pietro. I was talking to Past Pietro," giggled Kate.
"Yes, Kate," said Pietro.
Kate gave him a hug.
"I'm going to miss you."
"I'm not really leaving. There'll still be a Pietro in this time. And the future will change, so you won't remember me or this future."
"I know. But I'll still miss you."
"We all will," said Rachel.
"I'll miss you all too," said Pietro.
"The time machine ready?" asked Erik.
"Uh, almost," said Mirah. "It's not easy fixing a time machine."
"I'm sure it isn't," said Warren.
Then Roic, without a helmet or cape, entered.
"Roic," said Laura. "I was wondering were you were."
"Hey, Son," said Future Pietro.
"Hey, Father," said Roic.
"Did you come to say bad things to Papa?" said Paula, narrowing her eyes at her older brother.
"No. I just wanted to apologize for my behavior."
"Are you sick or something, Roic?" asked Juana.
Roic shook his head. "No."
"What's your game, Magnus?" said Haley.
"My name is Roic. And I have no game."
He walked up to Rachel.
"Rach, I'm sorry about how I acted."
"And I love you too," said Roic, mentally.
Rachel smiled. She gave him a kiss on the cheek. Roic blushed.
Future Pietro smiled.
"Glad to see you came around, Son."
Roic smiled.
