When I woke-up again, I found myself in another strange place except this time instead of beautiful homes trapped inside by a gate; I found myself in what appeared to be the poor part of Point Place. It's strange because the Point Place I knew never actually had a poor part. I mean there were middle class citizens but I guess you can't count them as being poor. So anyways I wake-up in the middle of the street again and this time I decided not to get out of my bed. I laid my head down on my pillow and closed my eyes. The bed however, vanished again and I fell to the ground. The street was damp from rain and there was a musty smell in the air. I could hear alley cats fighting outside and I began to feel so much more afraid then I was before. This was so different than the secure gated community. It was cold, dark, and the streets were so dirty from garbage that you could barely see where you were going. As I continued to look around at my new surroundings, I heard another car come rushing up the street. This car wasn't as nice as the other one from the gated community.
A young woman got out of the car. She had ratty strawberry blonde hair and was wearing all black. Her ears had like six piercing and her nose was pierced as well. She was extremely tall but I could tell that she was a teenager. As soon as she was out of the car, the porch light came on and an older woman and man stepped outside of the house. They must have been her parents but for some odd reason the man looked nothing like his daughter.
"Ashley where the hell have you been?" She asked.
As soon as I heard the woman's voice I knew who it was; it was Donna.
I couldn't believe how old and ugly she looked. I mean I have always pictured Donna as being ugly when she was older but not with this many wrinkles. She was just as tall as she was when she was younger her hair however was up to her shoulders. She looked on her daughter with so much anger and animosity.
"Well, where have you been?" Donna asked her.
The girl didn't say a word.
"Ashley I'm waiting." Donna said.
] "It's none of your business where I was." She said.
"Ashley it is my business when you're coming home at 1 in the morning." Donna said.
"Fine you want to know so badly I went and saw dad today." She said.
"Ashley how many times have I told you to stay away from him? He's freakin lunatic." Donna said.
"No, he's not. At least he's not hurtful and spiteful like you." She said.
"Ashley don't talk to your mom like that." The man said.
"You're not my father. You're just my stepfather." Ashley said.
Oh my gosh, I thought to myself. I know that voice; it was Kelso's voice. This whole scenario was making no sense to me. Why would Donna marry Michael? She was always grossed out by him so why would she marry him? This has to be some bad dream or some type of alternate universe. Donna's married to Kelso and I am some psychotic power hungry woman. I mean I want to be in control but I never thought I would ever build a community like the one I saw earlier today. I have to get out of here before someone sees me and recognizes me. I turned around ready to leave when a hand reached out and grabbed my shoulder. I turned around to see who it was; it was Michael. He grabbed me by the arm and took me over to Donna.
She stood there and looked me over before saying anything.
"Wow you look just like your mother. I never knew she had a daughter." Donna said.
"I don't know what you're talking about. My name is Jackie Burkhart." I said.
"She even named her own kid after her. What a self-centered bitch." Donna said.
"No I am Jackie Burkhart." I said.
"I know who you are. You're Jackie Burkhart's daughter." Donna said.
"No I'm not Jackie Burkhart's daughter. I mean I am Jackie Burkhart." I said.
"You know what, why don't you go back to you're mother and tell her she can't have us." Donna said.
"Donna you're not listening to me." I said.
"How did you know my name?" She asked.
"I told you that I'm Jackie Burkhart." I said again.
"She must have told you my name and where I lived. So now she's got her own daughter spying on me." Donna said.
"Donna you're a lumberjack." I said to her.
She turned around and looked at me.
"What did you just call me?" She asked.
"I called you a lumberjack." I said.
"Jackie is that really you?" She asked me.
"Yes." I said.
"It can't be you. You're too young." Donna said.
"I some how traveled to the future. I don't know what I'm doing here." I said.
"Ashley and Kelso get inside." Donna said.
"Mom I don't want to go inside I want to..."
"Get inside right now." She said.
They both reluctantly went back into the house.
"Which year are you coming from?" She asked me.
"1978." I said.
"Good, there's still some time." She said.
"I don't understand what do you mean there's still some time?" I asked her.
"There's still some time to rewrite the future." Donna said.
"Where's Eric?" I asked her.
Her face turned cold when I said his name.
"He's gone. After you went insane and decided to build the perfect little town, I tried to stop you. You became so mad that you decided to destroy everything that I held dearly. You wrecked my marriage and took Eric away from me. He's gone totally insane like you have. He works for Jackie now.
"Wait a minute, why did I go insane?" I asked her.
"Well, you and Hyde got back together in 1978 and everything was going fine for like six years but then for some reason you broke up. You then became so obsessed with perfection that it became your life. That's all you talked about. You kept saying that if you built perfect community where everything had order and rules then there would be no pain and suffering. I thought it was just your way of dealing with the break-up until I found actual plans for a community. I tried to stop you like I said before but you would have none of it. You built your first small community and it was an instant hit. When I saw your community I thought that maybe having one small gated in community would be okay but then you started building bigger and bigger communities until the whole town was virtually in these communities. Those of us who wouldn't conform with you, you destroyed. I didn't think you would become as powerful as you did but then you ran for mayor and won. Now you run the whole town. There are some of us who are trying to stop you at this very moment. We live on the outskirts of Point Place. I think the reason why you were sent here to the future is to put an end to this mess. Jackie you have to save yourself from yourself before it's too late." She explained to me.
I thought my bed was going to come back for me but it didn't. It seems as though I am going to be stuck here for awhile. Donna gave me a room upstairs to sleep in.
"Hey why does this place look so familiar?" I asked her.
"It's the old Foreman's house. We live in the part of Point Place that's considered to be poor." She told me.
"Where's Steven Hyde now?" I asked her.
"He lives on a small farm about an hour away from here with his wife and children. Don't worry you'll meet him tomorrow. He's part of the alliance that's trying to bring down your future self." Donna said.
"This sounds like some kind of war." I said to her.
"It is a war. It's a war for our freedom and this country freedom. Your future self isn't going to stop until she owns the whole world and she more than capable of doing it." Donna warned me.
I fell asleep quickly. I surely hope this is a dream I thought to myself.
But it wasn't...
