For anyone who had questions similar to those mentioned by Thesolitary-dragon, here are the answers:

Q's for Things Just … Pt. 1

Jovee, Douglas and Finley went into that past scenario at that time because it was when the wormhole opened up at that point and pulled them through. The wormhole only opens up when Microne is doing projects (in the future, anyways), but the energy of the wormhole and whatever force beyond decides when and where they go. Of course Jovee knew that you could influence the wormhole to go where you want, so she wanted to take Douglas to a time when he could see his Father, and of course when they got there Jovee had the idea to set his parents up sooner. She figured maybe if they altered the timeline, then Lucas wouldn't have gone through the wormhole, but lo and behold, it still happened.

Q's for Things Just … Pt. 2

Q1: Was Josie sent to the future to get Lucas?

A: Josie was indeed sent to the future to retrieve Lucas. The reason she didn't go back home right away after getting him was mainly my decision. I didn't want to end the story really abruptly like I did the last one. I wanted there to be a little more before she left, so even though she did leave without really being noticed, everything was set, and she was ready to go home.

Q2: Why was Lucas sent to 1923 of all places?

A: Lucas actually appeared in 1923 because I couldn't think of a better place to send him, lol. But yeah, he did have something to do there, which was to influence Daniel to become a scientist, and you'll find out about Daniel in the next story, because it does mention him for a bit.

Q3: Why did Microne chose Lucas to reopen the wormhole and how did they send him through?

A: Collin Bush chose Lucas to go to in order to reopen the wormhole because Lucas had the most knowledge about the wormhole. Also, he is Vaughn's partner at Pearadyne (meant to mention that, but slipped my mind, so here it is now). Since Vaughn has more power in Pearadyne than Lucas because he owns the establishment, even if they are partners, they went for Lucas. However, Lucas was planning to inform Vaughn of what had really happened, but Microne suspected it, and they waited until he was standing right over the wormhole to open it up.

Q4: Why were the Science Club in the room when Lucas disappeared?

A: It was actually Lucas going through the wormhole that brought all members of the science club together. They were all in there to talk with Z about a project they were working on, but Z was talking with Lucas and Collin Bush, so the others had to wait. Collin waited until Lucas was standing over the wormhole, and then alerted his assistant via a little red button (lol) that set off an alarm, so they knew to open it up. Douglas, Jovee, Finley, Katrina and Nathaniel all saw him go through, and it was the secret of the wormhole that brought them together as friends.

Q5: Why didn't Adult Josie try to get Lucas back?

A: Adult Josie did try to get Lucas back, but the wormhole would never open up for her. It only opened when Microne was doing experiments, and what with becoming a major workaholic, she was never around when it was actually open. Not to mention it just wasn't her place to bring Lucas back. It was just part of Josie's destiny (I didn't think the rest through, honestly. After all that, it sounded good to send Teen Josie back to get him)

Q6: Why was Josie there a whole week instead of a day?

A: Teen Josie was sent to the future because she had a few jobs to do there, actually. That's why she was there a week. First her appearance inadvertently helped Finley and Douglas cease their fighting. Then, since Douglas and Finley weren't fighting, the trip to Microne was organized, and eventually the virus was planted. Josie had the ability to get through to Vinny because she could really get him to think about everything Vaughn had been through before. Last, she had to retrieve Lucas. That in itself took a while because first they had to wait until the wormhole was no longer under the control of Microne. Then when that was done, Josie had to know the truth about Lucas; otherwise what would have been the point of bringing her to 1924 if she didn't know Lucas was there?

Q7: How does the wormhole work?

A: The wormhole opens in the future only if Microne opens it. However, if it was opened in the past, then the unnamed force controlling the wormhole had control, and could send people from the past anywhere. Therefore, if the wormhole opens in the future during 'Microne's reign', to put it simply, then it was because of influence from the past, and had nothing to do with Microne. But if the wormhole opened up and no one came through and pulled things in to it, then it was because Microne was using it. Does that make sense?

Q8: Preston?

A: I wanted to wait to bring Preston in so that everyone would be as surprised as Josie was. Although he is, in all actuality, my favorite character of my own creation, I had to wait. I did, however, hint at him every now and then, if anyone picked up on that. Preston was the sick kid at home that Josie had to care for, and Douglas only got sick after he had gone home and spent time with Preston. Every now and then people would look upstairs, or mention someone else, but they'd get cut off so it wouldn't give away too much. Also, Preston does not go to Blake Holsey, as mentioned, but he does go to Stonebridge Academy, which, if you remember, was where Josie was considering sending Douglas the next semester. Preston's more like Josie as a trouble maker, and obviously was kept out of the loop. This was because Josie didn't want another child becoming involved with the wormhole, so she felt it best to keep her youngest unaware of that. Instead they told him that Lucas had just left them, but didn't elaborate more than that.

Q9: Why doesn't Josie remember her trip to the future when she returns home?

A: Partly the reason why Josie doesn't remember much of what happened in the future agrees with the explanation she gave to Vaughn in the car. It was an unexpected side-effect of the wormhole. It was also because whoever is in charge of the wormhole didn't want her to remember everything because it would logically change future events. Therefore, Josie only remembered going to the future and having to do something because that way when things started coming together in the future, Josie would have a hunch of what happened, and would be unable to really change the timeline because it would be too late.

Q10: How come things that happened before were happening again?

A: Like Douglas theorized, all the strange events that occurred that had occurred in the past was because of Josie's influence from the past, creating almost duplicate situations, some with the same way to fix, and others with an entirely new way to settle things.

Q11: How does Josie 2 tie into everything?

A: Last but not least, the whole thing with Josie 2. Since the janitor said in season one that Josie 2 would be going to a place where there were friends and stuff, I decided to play off that and have her go to the future where the new science club is. Since Teen Josie introduced herself to everyone at the school as Jade Trent, Josie 2 took the part after Josie left, living as Jade Trent, Josie Randall's cousin. Now she has a future with friends, a family (of sorts as she lives with the Randall's), she attends Blake Holsey, and she's her own person now, not mistaken for Josie. Josie 2 had explained part of the plan to Katrina after she became human again, so Katrina and the janitor were the only ones who really knew.

If there are any other questions, either from this one or the first, leave a review with your email address and I'll try to answer them, okay?

NOTES ON THE NEW STORY:

I hope to have it up by the end of the week. Winces Yeah, I know, might seem like a while, but I can't exactly start it without my brother. Technically it was his idea, and he wanted me to write it, so I have to go over everything he thinks should happen in it, first. I may end up featuring the future science club for one chapter at least, just to appease anyone who liked them, lol. But it's mainly our good ol' science club, so you can expect it to follow the same basics from these past two … same couples and such. It will take place not too long after this one, but since Josie doesn't remember much of what happened in the future, it won't have much to do with these ones. Anyhoo, thanks again!
