Back To The Future Part IV: A Famous Journey
Chapter 6: Believing Ace
Ace woke up from her nap, and it was very dark in the room she was in. She heard Dennis humming, but she believed everything that happened to her the other day was just a dream. "Dennis, is that you?" "Yeah, what's going on?" "I had this horrible dream; I dreamt that I went back in time. I saw you basically, and all the people looked different." Dennis sat beside her on the sofa. "It's okay, you're still here in 86'" Ace's eyes shot open. "1986?!" Ace sat up as Dennis turned on the light.
"Ah!" Ace yelled. "Hey hey, just calm down. It's me, Dennis remember?" Dennis was starting to worry, as Ace rolled off the couch and was crawling away from him. "This is just a dream, this is not happening now." Ace seemed to be going insane at the moment. Then a loud thunder echoed from outside and into the house, causing Ace to jump up, run, and hold onto Dennis. Another thunder crashed, this time Ace jumped so much that the force knocked the two onto the ground. "You are one strange girl." Dennis said scared and humored at the same time.
"My god, I don't even know your name yet." "Ace, just call me Ace." "Ace, is that your real name?" She shook her head. "Just a nickname my friends call me." "What is your real name?" Ace sighed. "I'll tell you if I start to like you." "Don't you already like me?" She glared at him. "Okay, okay I'll stop now." Dennis gave his odd signature laugh. "So, where did you come from?" "I can't believe you asked. I drove all the way from California just to get to you." Dennis' eyes widened in surprise "Just for me? How sweet... no wonder why you look like shit." "I have to tell him now before it's too late. Damn this is going to be hard as hell." She said thinking to herself.
"Dennis," she said. "There's something really important that I have to tell you." Dennis took a deep breath. "Sure, what is it babe?" Ace paused a while, and Dennis raised his eyebrows. "Okay, here it is. I'm not from the year 1986." Dennis tilted his head and back. "You're saying that... you're from another time" Ace nodded. "I don't have time for this shit." Dennis started walking into the kitchen. "Dennis wait, please! You have to believe me! I can prove it." Dennis, standing, leaned on the kitchen counter with his legs crossed and hands in his pants pockets. "I want to see you try." Ace took a deep breath. "You told me that in college you majored in journalism because you thought it would be easy." Dennis' eyes lit up faintly. "That's not enough for me babe." Ace stood there and thought of all the things the Dennis she knew said to her about himself. Then, it hit her. "I know how you wanted to become a comedian!" Dennis uncrossed his legs saying "If you can get this right, I'll believe your little fairy tale okay?"
Ace started. "You were a sophomore in high school, and in your study hall class there was the biggest football player in school sitting next to you. He never considered you as existing or even there. But one day, you made fun of your teacher and said something sarcastic under your breath, and the football jock laughed so hard that he asked you to go walk to his next class with him. That's how you wanted to become a comedian, Dennis." Dennis stood there, eyes wide open and mouth slightly opened. "Okay, I believe you now." Ace showed a large grin. "Yes!" She said as she jumped up in the air one time with her fists over her head. "No one... no one knows that. Not even anyone back at SNL. Even if they do know, it's going to be my family, but families don't go public." Ace glomped Dennis tightly. "I love you Dennis Miller!" Dennis shifted his eyes left to right. "Okay... I love you too." Ace was then reminded of something terrible.
"Oh shit!" She shouted scaring Dennis half to death. "Look, I'm gonna explain this quickly, I'm from the year 2004, I've come in a time machine that my brother re-invented. I got in this fight with some guy named Derek and I got into the DeLorean time machine and went to this year. I know you in my time but you are a complete asshole, and I know a lot about you because I live with a good friend of yours David Spade, and now that I've come here you are the only person that I know that I have to turn too, and that's basically why the hell I'm here right now." Dennis laughed. "Wow, that's pretty good ranting there." "You're better than me. Anyway, I left the time machine at the SNL parking lot. I have to go get it now!" Dennis jumped. "Okay then, lets go!"
