Author's notes:

Mallaidh -- Yeah… no one thinks that this story is related to the Titans. At first, at least. It gets better, trust me on this one. This story is set in the future. I won't say any more right now. But all will be explained… All your questions answered and more… et cetera, et cetera, et cetera…

AntimatterManticore – Yeah, cause you were the first person to review chapter 20 of AMOT. Aya! –Kills typos- Yeah, Chris and Kris are the same person. My spelling of it is Kris, but I normally say Chris. Must've slipped. Oops.

Smileyfacedudet – I promise, it'll get less confusing. Eventually. Or, maybe, more confusing. It depends on the reader. But, for most, it becomes a lot less confusing. And, I muchly realize that your review wasn't a flame – I've gotten so many of those before that I recognize them immediate. Flamers usually call me stupid, along with one or more curse words that I don't care to repeat. n.n And I also realize that muchly is not a word.

Vandagirl - -takes a bow- xD I realize that my A/Ns are shorter than yours. Most people's are. No offense meant...

Time Travlers: Chapter two

"Reyna, hurry up!" called Erika, running down a street on the set. Her character's name was Sari, the smart and fierce fighter girl. Mimi played Reyna, the bouncy and usually hyper 'cheerleader'. Mimi ran after Erika, grinning.

"I'm hurrying! I'm hurrying!" Mimi called. An actor called Arien exited a store, just in time to crash into Erika. She stumbled backwards, muttering an apology. Mimi caught up.

"Sorry, sorry, didn't mean to…" Erika mumbled. Arien, who had fallen to the ground, shook his head and got up. Arien shook his head and clambered to his feet.

"I'm fine, I'm fine," he said. He peered at them more closely through his crimson eyes. "Would you girls be willing to help me with an experience?" he added hopefully. Erika and Mimi glanced at each other, feigning looks of dumbfounded surprise. Then they looked back at Arien, considering.

"Alright then," Erika said. Mimi looked reluctant. Arien clapped once, business like.

"Excellent! Names?" He looked at them expectantly.

"Sari Rei," Erika said at once. Mimi hesitated, suspicious.

"Reyna Montony," she said after a second, proudly brushing a lock of maroon hair from her face. Arien jotted the names down and beckoned to them before setting off.

"This is it," Arien said a moment later. The scene had changed; they were now in Arien's 'laboratory'. It was equipped with coolly looking gizmos and gadgets, some of which whirred softly from time to time.

At the back was a large cylinder with a rounded top. Perched on the roof were two objects that looked like miniature lightning rods with blue-silver stress balls on the ends. The cylinder was standing on a squat platform, only about three feet tall, silver with some green lining. There was a set of small stairs on one side, leading towards the silver door, complete with a greenish sheen. Right next to the stairs was a small computer-like object, equipped with assorted dials and buttons. The time machine itself, like the door, was silver. It had a blue-green sheen to it. Overall, it looked extremely impressive.

"Cool," Erika said. Arien smirked and shooed them inside.

"CUT!" Kris called. They froze.

"Kris!" whined Mimi, grinning. "We aren't at the end of the scene yet!"

"I know, but Jay wants to get in with you." Kris ushered an extremely excited Jay on stage, clutching Great Heroes of the Past. Arien opened the door for them, looking bewildered, and the three stepped inside. The inside was much plainer than the outside; it had only a small radiator on one side to relieve the bareness of it. Arien closed the door slowly, looking at Jay incredulously. Erika lifted Jay up so that she could peek through a small glass window in the door.

Jay watched, amazed, as Arien twiddled some dials and pushed a few buttons. He typed something on the keyboard that Jay couldn't see and pushed the big red button, below which there was a sign that said "DO NOT PUSH". Jay grinned as a soft whirring echoed through the cabin. Erika lowered her to the floor and she scurried next to the radiator, hiding behind Mimi and grinning.

The whirring grew louder and slowly slid up the scale. The cabin started to quiver and rumble. Mimi peeped out the window and saw Arien peering rather fearfully at the machine. His face said all too clearly "Oops!" The machine was defiantly shaking, now, and the two older girls started to suspect something was wrong. Jay, though, was having the time of her life.

The small radiator was vibrating slightly. From a seam in the top came a green goop. This seeped onto Jay's small hand and onto her book. She made a disgusted face, said "Eurgh!" and stepped away. The whirring grew higher and higher, until it reached an alarming pitch. Then, like a computer shutting off, it moved quickly down the scale again. The machine stopped vibrating, but the girls were gone. In the back wall, near the radiator, was a maroon-ish hole in the wall. It was white at the edges. Like a portal. Then, it was gone. Just like that.

The girls were flying through the space-time continuum, though it was hard to know that. Jay looked around with amazement and awe, then turned excitedly to Erika and Mimi. They were both staring fixedly ahead, not around at the maroon-blue swirling background, dotted with white spots that looked very much like stars in the distance. Erika had her arms to her sides and legs together, like a missile shooting through the air. Mimi, though, had her arms spread like an airplane.

Jay called to the two, but no sound punctured the area. She tried again. Still nothing. Exasperated, Jay looked ahead as well. She put her arms in front of her, like Superman, and aimed for another portal. Through this one, she could see blue skies. And something else, something that was silver-blue, though mostly silver.

Erika shot through it first and somersaulted nimbly before landing in a cat-like pose. Mimi was next, landing like a sparrow, feet first. Jay, however, seemed not to exit at all. Instead, a teenaged girl, the same age as Erika and Mimi, shot ungracefully through the quickly shrinking portal. Her long navy hair landed around her untidily as she landed on her stomach. She wore a lavender tee shirt and capris to match, which became obvious when she stood. In one hand the girl held a thin book. The other was covered in green goop. She made a disgusted face and shook her hand until it came off.

Erika and Mimi stared at her. They soon realized, upon seeing her navy eyes, that this was an older version of Jay. So they simply shook off the shock and looked around.

"What's that?" Jay asked excitedly, pointing with her free hand. Erika and Mimi simultaneously looked behind them. Erika's eyes widened and Mimi's jaw dropped. Before them, unlike anything in their home town, was a ten foot building in the shape of an upper case 'T'.

A/N: The plot is coming together quite nicely. . I've gotten lots of reviews from people wondering what Erika, Mimi, and Jay have to do with the Titans. Well, this chapter should answer those questions. To the extent I'll give away. For the rest of it… You'll just have to wait, won't you?
