Quantum Leaped

Disclaimer: I do not own X-men: Evolution. I don't own Quantum Leap. I DO own Sidney and Tally.
This story is set in-between 'I turn to you' and 'Divine inspiration'. So Tally is still living at the institute. Please tell me you know what Quantum Leap is. It is an old tv show, with the best theme music, ever! I happen to ADORE it. I tell you what, i'll put the original intro up for you, so you get a better understanding.
'Realising that he wanted to time travel in his own lifetime, Dr Sam Beckett stepped into the Quantum Leap accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not his own and driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. His only guide on this journey is Al, an observer from his own time who appears in the form of a hologram that only Sam can see and hear. And so Dr Becket finds himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong and hoping each time that his next leap, will be the leap home'.
You know whats REALLY scary?, i know that off by heart!. For those that know Quantum Leap, yes i am quite aware it was set in 1999 and Evolution is set, well around our time i guess, but i'm using my artists licence here, 'kay?. And now onto the story..
Chapter one - Another leap in time.
Sam saw the familiar flash of blue light and the feeling of himself being catapulted through time as he leapt to another life. He was used to this feeling by now, and considered it as normal as breathing. He saw the bright light come to an end and closed his eyes, waiting for impact. There was one more blinding flash of blue light and then nothing. Sam opened his eyes to see he was in.... some sort of asteroid?. He looked around, getting his bearings, this was not the usual. He looked down at himself to see he was wearing some sort of uniform, but he didn't recognise it from anywhere. A buzzing sound caught his attention, he spun his head around to see a very fast, very sharp rotating blade. It was coming right for him.
"Oh boy".
Sam looked around manically for cover, finding none, he dropped to the ground, laying himself flat, hoping that the blade would pass right over him. He waited, nothing happened. He put his head up to see a man clad in orange spandex, complete with mask scowling at him. Sam gulped, he didn't know where or who he had leapt into, but the guy in front of him seemed pretty mad at him.
"What the heck was THAT?", he asked, crossing his arms, "you should have been able ta dodge that easy".
"I guess....i was a little..distracted", said Sam, after years of leaping, he had become expert at making up quick alibies.
"Yeah, well if ya were out in the field that 'distarction' would have choped ya empty head off. Stop the simulation!".
Sam heard a buzzing sound and suddenly all around him the asteroid started to fade. Evantually he found himself in a big metal room. The man in spandex took off his mask, revealing his shaggy blue-black hair and unshaven face.
"Go on, get outta here before i make ya do a hundred push-up's bub", he said, gesturing to a door.
Sam nodded and walked out of the door, happy to get out of that room. His surroundings looked now very much like some sort of mansion. He sighed and walked along the corridors, not really knowing where he was headed. He hoped Al would show up soon and tell him how to leap out of here, this place was creepy. He eventually made it to a room where three teenagers were doing what teenagers did best, hanging around. A girl with long brown hair in a pony tail was typing away on a laptop, at least, Sam thought, he couldn't be THAT far into the past. The girl looked up at him and smiled. She had 'valley girl' written all over her,
"Hey", she said, "how was your danger room exercise?".
"Danger room?", said Sam, "errr, yeah, fine i almost got cut up by a razor but other than that, i'm fine".
"Ouch", the girl said with a wince, "i bet that made Mr Logan, like, so totally mad".
Sam nodded, he guessed that the guy in spandex was 'Mr Logan'. He walked over to a chair and sat down with a sigh, he could use a mirror right now, then at least he could know what he looked like. The girl shrugged and went back to her laptop, across the room another girl with red hair and blue eyes looked up from what appeared to be her homework.
"So what did ye get as punishment?", she asked, her accent was deffinatley Scottish, "do ye have te scrub the Blackbird for a week?. Tidy up the x- van?. Cook?, please don't tell me ye have te cook, i dinnae think i can stomach it".
Sam chuckled, he didn't know what those other names meant, but at least now he knew whoever he had leapt into was a bad cook.
"No", he said, "i haven't been givien any punishment, he just told me to leave the room".
"I say you got away with it easy" muttered the last teen, this time a boy with a pair of ruby-tinted sunglasses covering his eyes, "i don't know how you do it".
"Calm down Scott", said the valley-girl again, "you totally need to work on those social skills of yours".
"Sorry Kitty", said who Sam now assumed to be Scott, "i've had a rough day. Yet another Duncan Mathews party that i wasn't invited to".
The valley-girl, Kitty, Sam told himself, sighed.
"Why are you, like, so miffed about not being invited to Duncan's party?. You don't even like the guy. I wasn't invited but i'm, like, not sulking".
"Errrr..i'm just going to the bathroom", said Sam, standing up, he really needed to see his face, or to put it correctly, the face of the person he had leapt into.He walked out of the room and started to walk past the stairs.
"The bathrooms upstairs", said the Scottish girl, "heck i haven't lived here as long as you have and even i know that".
"Yeah", said Sam with a sigh, "i was just going that way".
Kitty rolled her eyes and walked out of the room, stopping next to Sam.
"Are you SURE nothing, like, hit your head in the danger room?", she asked.
"No, said Sam, "i'm just fine".
"Okay", said Kitty with a shrug and ran upstairs. Sam sighed and walked up behind her. As Sam got to the top of the stairs he saw Kitty again, she was still jogging along. She suddenly took a sharp turn right and, to Sam's horror, starting running straight at the wall. He put out his hand out to warn her when she suddenly passed right through it. Sam blinked and rubbed his eyes, had he just seen that?. He shook his head in disbelief, he was really starting to wonder what he'd leapt into. He walked down the corridor, looking for the bathroom.
After a few minutes searching, Sam finally found a bathroom. He walked in and closed the door with a sigh. If the big blade and big metal room wasn't enough to freak him out, Kitty walking through the wall had sealed the deal, he was terrified. He walked over to a nearby mirror, leaning over to get a look his new face...
I'm going to leave it as a cliffhanger. Ain't i EVIL?. Who ha ha ha ha!. I know it's a short chapter, but it's just an introduction really. Everyone folowing this?. If you have any questions, ask in your reviews. If you live in the UK and have SKY, tune into UK GOLD every day at either 11:00 AM or 5:00 PM. Who has Sam leapt into?, find out in the next chapter, remember to review.
