"Why? Why did he leave me? Doesn't he care about me? Am I not good enough for him? I love him! Why doesn't he feel the same!?"
"Of course he loves you. He loves you with all his heart! He would never wish harm to come upon such a beautiful creature such as you!"
"Then WHY?! I need him! Why is he gone?!"
"Please, calm down!"
"How am I to calm down?"
"He will be back!"
"That isn't good enough! He left once, what will stop him from doing so again?!"
"What on earth is going on in here?" Tony demanded. Sarah and Bindi looked at him quickly. They both had red flushed cheeks and tear stained faces. "Well?" Tony asked, "It sounds like you two are having some sort of conniption! You can't tell me its about Merlock!"
Both Bindi and Sarah looked at each other, then at Tony, their faces getting redder.
Then they cracked up laughing. Well, Sarah did anyway. Bindi was trying not to scream at him.
"We're watching a movie Tony!" Sarah cried through her laughter and pointed to the TV. Tony saw a movie suddenly unmuted and a woman crying her eyes out on the shoulder of another woman.
"Oh, travesty! What shall I do now that he is gone?"
"Worry not my sister, life will heal, but he heart is forever."
"A...movie?" That line does not make sense.
"Yes, and your ruining the mood!" Bindi cried furiously, "GO away! You have no romance in you! You are no Merlock!"
"And I wouldn't want to be either." Tony replied. Bindi's face flushed even more and she leapt into the air towards Tony. Tony backed up in surprise, but Sarah managed to grab Bindi before she got to him.
"Tony, I suggest you go for now and let Bindi calm down."
"Uh...good idea." Tony replied and exited the room.

"Time Master?" The Dark Lord asked tentatively as he entered. "You summoned me?"
"Yes, my boy." The Lord of Time replied as he sat on his cloud and watched the flow of time, "There are serious complications that threaten all of space and time. We ourselves will disappear if worse comes to worse."
The Dark Lord looked at the other man. If his face could make expression, he would be showing worry right now.
"Time Master...you can't disappear. I have learned much since I started tutoring under you and know that if you were to disappear time will be chaotic."
"Yes. I know. And if you were to disappear...as you control the realm of darkness...it will only add to the chaos. You are the only thing keeping the darkness from over whelming the space time continuum. We are in need of help. I wish you to take four pre-selected shifters and go to the forest that holds time. But first…go see Flint. Give him this letter. I am counting on you my boy. Everything is."

Dr. Goodman paced his office as he thought through the possibilities of what this new information could mean. It was definitely dangerous. This was an old battle that happened years ago, but not everyone is going to let the memory of such a thing fade. That man will try to attain his objective again and that will lead to disaster for many.
What was he going to do?
"Doctor Goodman!" Flint cried as he ran into the room. "Watcha doin?"
"Oh, hey Flint. I'm just thinking. Why do you ask?"
"You've been here ever since Bindi arrived. You haven't said a word since."
"Oh, well...things are getting a little complicated in areas and I'm just trying to crack open the keys, that's all."
"Oh, okay. Well, I'm gonna go see if Bindi wants to play tag or something!"
"Fine with me." Dr. Goodman replied half heart4dly, not even registering what Flint said. Then the doorbell rang.
And rang.
And rang.
Berny's eye twitched as it rang and he finally lost his temper.
"WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE GET THE DOOR! I'M TRYING TO THINK!" He cried.
"Sorry, Uncle Berny!" Tony shouted as he ran for the door. After a few seconds Dr. Goodman sighed and began to think again when suddenly Tony's scream caught everyone by surprise. With a flash of energy Berny had never really shown before he dashed out of his office and ran into the living quarters of the house, stopped when he saw Tony on his butt looking up at the expressionless face of a young boy no older then Tony himself standing in the rain. Berny raised his eyebrow in a dubious expression.
"Tony? What's wrong?" HE asked.
"Tony!?" Sarah cried as she entered the room with Flint on her heels. "Why did you scr-...oh." She murmured as she saw who was at the door.
"I apologize for scaring you Tony." The boy stated, "I know you aren't used to me yet. Last you saw me I was trying to capture the time Shifters."
"What are you here for Dark Lord?" Sarah asked.
"Are you here to play?" Flint asked.
"No. I am actually here on urgent business. Flint...the Time lord and I are in need of your services. A disturbance is about to begin and we need help. If we do not reseave such help both he and I will dissapear and chaos shal reighn free in the rifts." At that point the the time shifters poked their heads out from under his claok revealing Getalong, Unita, and Leafy

Petra sat against the cell wall, desperatly trying to remember something she had forgotten ten years ago. Dino and Mite were in the cell with her, trying to figure out just what was going on.
"Petra…." Dino murmured, "Just what is going on here?" Petra glanced at Dino and shook her head sadly.
"It's complicated Dino. Perhaps everyone is, or was rhater, right. I am nothing but a nieve little idiot."
"Why would you say that?" Mite asked, "No one ever said that!"
Petra smiled ruefully this time. "They used to Mite. All the time. No one cared what I thought, they made up my mind for me. I had no choice in what I got to do or anything. You remember when we went after that time shifter and you saw me as a little girl?"
"Yeah, I remember." Mite replied, "But what has that got to do with now?"
"That man is my uncle. As princess and hier to our Kingdom I inheritated a special secret that invloves a key. I just can't remember a thing about it! And If I don't tell uncle soon, he says he's going to kill us!"
"But…if uyo don't remember…."
"Mite, a persons memory can be brought back by many ways. I remember my father making me take a class on psycology when I was eight. The most boring thing I was ever forced to do."
"Man, your dad doesn't sound very nice."
"Oh, he was nice enough. When he wanted to be. Mostly though, he was a coniving old man who used me for his political gain."
"Sounds like a jerk." Petra sighed and nodded her head
"Ooooooooh Peeeeeeeeeetraaaaaa!" A voice outside her cell called. Petra looked around and saw her uncle step into view of the cell. "It's time dear one." He sneered. He opened the cel and grabbed Petra by the arm, twisting it so she couldn't struggle. As she gasped in pain Dino and Mite got angry, but they saw two armed men step up behind Reizen. "Don't worry you two, your my insurence I get what I want." He murmured. He motioned one of the men forward and Mite was grabbed by the arm and pulled towards a gun.
"Mite!" Dino cried
"Silence ingrate!" Reizen commanded. As Dino shut his mouth quickly Reizen smiled and turned his attention to his neice. "Now then. Where were we? Oh yes. Where is it?"
"I told you!" Petra growled, "I don't remember!"
"You better or else your green friend dies!" Reizen hissed.
"B-but…I told you…!"
"And I told you! I will not stand for your insilent behavior!"
"But I tried!"
"Try harder!" Reizen snapped his fingers and Mite was pulled closer to the gun.
"NO! Please!"
"Tell me where it is!"
"I can't!" Petra cired frantically.
Click.
"Don't test my patience child!"
"I told you!"
"I won't hesistate to kill it!"
"I don't rememebr a thing, I swear!"
"Aim for the head!"
"NOOOOO!"
BANG!

"Merlock you have no idea how releived we are that you have returned home." AN old man said. Merlock ws standing in a doorway looking around the room with wide eyes. His whole family was there to greet him, as well as the clan elders. His family, consisting of his mother, Trilana, and father, Jasper, his other two older siblings, Abrila and Marlow, his younger sister Jadine and his aunts, uncles, and cousins.
His grandfather, the man who spoke, was part of the counsil and he chose not to include him in anything family wise due to that.
"And why is that?" Merlock asked suspiciously.
"Merlock, why do you still suspect us of hiding soemthing from you?"
"Because I know you are."
"Merlock, we will talk of this later. This is your welcome home party and your cinism is not going to spoil it for your dear mother." Merlock turned his attentoin to his mother. She smiled at her son and walked over to him, her light blue hair wisping around her shoulders as she walked.
"Merlock…it is so good to have you home my son." She hugged Merlock close to her and took him over to his family. "I want you to forget your suspicions with the elders for now and just enjoy this party we have in your favor. You are my son ad have returned after a long time. I am happy to have you home again, my son. We all are. Even your grandfather."
"I don't have a grandfather." Merlock replied angrily.
