A/N- Yeah, the Polish terrorists. I didn't mention them but in the part
where they... ya know... shot the Doc. It was in the... third chapter? I think
that was it. Yeah. Third chapter. The terrorists shot Doc Brown and
Cosette accidentally made the time machine go while trying to get away from
them and ended up making it go to fifty, which was the new and improved
much slower speed of time travel...
WolfKyr- Doncha just love BTTF? A good movie, recommended by a fan? I'll have to check that out.
La Pamplemousse- Nope... Feuilly wouldn't kill an innocent Doc. Okay, I definitely wanna read/watch the Scarlet Pimpernel now.
Elyse3- Are you less confused now? If not, you get to watch the whole scene again in this chapter.
AmZ- Since she was trying to protect her mother and foster father from Javert's evil-ness. Anyway, he isn't dead.
Disclaimer- I don't actually /own/ Doc Brown, but I do own the dream I had last night where we went back in time and told Michael Jackson not to get plastic surgery or nose jobs and to stay away from little boys.

Cosette and the time machine were back in the familiar streets of Paris, only a few streets away from the Courtyard de Deux Arbres.
After unsuccessfully trying to steer the bulky machine through a narrow alley, Cosette pushed open the door and leapt out into the street. She would be faster on foot.
Doc Brown had set the machine to go back about ten minutes earlier than when Cosette had departed so that, in case it sent her to some obscure part of Paris on the other bank of the Seine, she would have time to get back to her exact place of departure.
When Cosette reached the Courtyard a Polish terrorist was leaning out the door of the blue and white omnibus, holding a gun on Doc Brown and... herself.
The doc pulled a sack out of the time machine and faced the Polish terrorists.
The one with the gun fired, narrowly missing Cosette.
Doc Brown shoved her into the time machine and slammed the door shut behind her. The terrorist shot and missed him again.
The doc opened the sack to show the Polish terrorists that it was full of ammunition.
Sneering, the man with the carbine shot Doc Brown repeatedly in the chest.
"No!" screamed the Cosette inside the time machine as the doc collapsed. "You bad men!"
The Polish terrorist opened fire on the time machine. Cosette saw herself frantically pressing buttons.
The machine began to roll forward. It picked up speed, pursued by the omnibus.
The time machine disappeared in a flash of brilliant light. Momentarily blinded, the terrorists crashed into a tree.
Cosette rushed to the Doc's side and rolled him over on his back. He stared lifelessly at the sky.
Sobbing, Cosette turned away. "Why didn't I remember to warn him?"
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw something move.
The doc sat up.
Cosette's eyes widened. "You're... you're alive!"
Doc Brown wordlessly pulled open his overcoat to reveal a silver vest.
"That's pretty," Cosette gasped. "How are you alive? They shot you!"
"It's a bulletproof vest," the doc sighed.
"Oh. But how did you know there would be terrorists?"
"I wouldn't steal from foreign terrorists if I didn't have a bulletproof vest on."
Cosette had no idea what he meant. "Neither would I," she agreed.
[A/N- Yes, I know, it was anti-climatic, but just deal with it.]
/\/\/\
The time machine rolled to a stop at 55 Rue Plumet, and Cosette climbed out the passenger door.
"How far ahead are you going, monsieur?" she asked.
The doc shrugged. "About nine years. It's a nice... um... number."
Cosette smiled. "Visit me when you get there."
"You bet."
"I bet... what?"
"Never mind. See you in nine years," Doc Brown sighed.
"Alright." Cosette watched the machine roll backwards down the Rue Plumet, then shoot forward.
With an enormous flash of blue light, the time machine and Doc Brown were gone.
Cosette sneaked back into her room and went to sleep.
