Chapter 2
A mothers concerns
Everybody was gathered in the living room waiting for Trigger. He entered with a worried expression on his face " everyone I have an announcement to make " he started "as of tomorrow….. I will be leaving on a…. trip ". The others looked at him in confusion, then Yuna stepped forward " where exactly are you going Trigger? " she asked giving him a suspicious glair. He paused for a second then spoke " I'm going away and that's all you need to know….. the thing is I don't know when I'm coming back ".
Everyone especially Roll gasped in surprise. Roll ran up to him and grabbed him by the arm " just what is that supposed to mean " her eyes started to tear " what am I supposed to do, just sit here and worry until you come back sniff ". She ran out of the room crying, Yuna spoke again " Trigger may I speak to you in the kitchen? " she asked. The others took this as a hint that the meeting was over and went back to their business. " so where are you really going Trigger? " she asked pacing in front of the kitchen door.
" I already told you, I'm going away for a while so stop asking " he said shrewdly as he folded his arms in disgust. Yuna stopped pacing and looked right at him " you don't really expect me, a mother unit, to believe that story do you? How stupid do you think I am? " she asked angered by Trigger's stubbornness. " do you really want me to answer that? " he asked sarcastically. " I'm just worried about you Trigger that's all " she said in a caring voice.
Trigger stopped for a minute then spoke again " alright I'll tell you…. I've been offered a chance to see my forgotten past by my future self " he admitted. Yuna raised her voice " WHAT? YOU MET YOU'RE FUTURE SELF, THAT'S THE CRAZYIST THING I'VE EVER HEARD " she yelled right in Trigger's face. He walked over to the window and opened the blinds " look right out there " he said. She looked out the window to see X standing outside the flutter.
" I cant believe it " she whispered in amazement " how is this even possible? " she asked. " remember that energy signature from the ruins? That was him " he said patting her on the back and pointing to X. Yuna looked back to Trigger " ok so it's true but still how do you know you can trust him? I mean you could be evil in the future ". He glared at her and in that instance she knew he was going to trust him one way or another. " what about Roll? Is she just supposed to sit idly by and wait for you? You do remember that it was you're friends that saved us back on Elysium don't you? ".
Yuna's questions just kept coming until finally Trigger snapped " enough, I see you're point but I don't want to put any of you in danger, that's why I have to go alone ". Yuna put her hand on his shoulder " Trigger you don't have to do anything by you're self, you have friends who care about you and would do anything to help you " she said comforting him. He looked at her " you're right, thanks " " any time, now c'mon lets go tell the others ".
After telling everyone about his true intentions even Roll, Trigger began to prepare for their trip to the past. He introduced them all to X and told him that they would accompany him. Roll, as brilliant as she is, designed some new weapons just in case Trigger needed them. Sera and Yuna trained for combat and tried to remember what incidents they would need to protect Trigger from. Rolls grandfather Barrel, was having a conversation with data in the other room. Yuna had finished the new bodies for her and sera, they transferred into their new bodies and roll finally had her long lost mother back.
With all their loose ends tied up, and with one more goodbye from Roll to her mother, the gang was ready to venture into the past. But little did they know that they were being watched by a person they knew. She followed Trigger to the sight where they were to leave from and followed the group into the past. As Rolls mother looked on, watching her little girl go on an adventure just like she did so many years ago, she whispered to herself " I guess its my turn to say it Roll….. be careful and come back safely…..please ". Thus trigger, X and the others took off for parts unknown.
