Part 8
Clockwork appeared out of the shadows in front if Timmy in his adult-mode.
"A-are you Clockwork?" stuttered Timmy, taking off the medallion.
"Indeed, I am."
"I thought this medallion helps me travel through time."
"No, it doesn't. I control where the medallion takes you. And I believe I have brought you to my tower."
Timmy looked at Clockwork's staff.
Maybe his staff can help me. If only I can steal it away from him, but how?
Timmy changed into a ghost and tried distracting him with a ghost ray.
Clockwork moved to the side, out of the ray's way.
Timmy flew at him.
"Time out." said Clockwork, pressing the button on his staff.
Timmy saw Clockwork moving at a hyper-fast speed when he and time were actually just slowing down.
"Time in." Clockwork pressed his button again and Timmy was too busy paying attention to him to see the giant gear in front.
He crashed into it and broke it.
"Ow, hey!" Timmy shouted and jumped up to blast another ray, but he missed.
Clockwork changed from adult to child.
"What makes you think you can hurt me? I am the master of time, I control It." he said.
"But that won't stop me." Timmy flew head on to Clockwork again.
"Time out."
Time rewound.
"But that won't stop me. Whoa, did I say that already?"
Timmy flew to Clockwork again.
"Time out."
Everything froze, except Clockwork.
He flew under Timmy then behind him. Behind where Clockwork floated, was his portal.
It was viewing the present from when Timmy stole the medallion.
"Time in."
Timmy saw that he was headed to the portal and was fast enough to stop himself from flying into it. He flew to the ground away from Clockwork.
"How am I supposed to get a hold of that staff? He can control time." He looked at the medallion he was still holding, "Maybe I better just leave. There seems like nothing I can do to get Cosmo and Wanda back."
Timmy put it on and was trying to figure out how to get back to the present.
"What? Give up already? How about your fairies?" asked Clockwork.
"You know I have fairies? Wait, he controls time. Of course he would know them, duh."
He gave one last effort to steal the staff before quitting. Timmy flew to Clockwork to just snatch it, expecting him to play with time and dodge him.
But Clockwork didn't. He let Timmy grab him.
But Timmy didn't realized that he didn't use the staff. So he ended up just pushing him.
"That's strange, why didn't he use the staff? What did I do?" he asked himself then looked at the medallion around his neck, "Cool! This necklace made me impervious to his time controlling powers. Which means…"
He pushed him then caught him off guard and blasted the staff out of his hands.
It fell and Timmy flew down to catch it.
"My staff!" shouted Clockwork.
"Right now, I need to borrow it. I'll have it back to you by a couple of hours before right now."
Timmy flew around with the staff and tried to find a way back into the present. He saw the portal and saw Danny still sleeping.
"Maybe this thing will get me back."
Timmy flew to the portal and appeared inside Danny's room.
Danny was just waking up and started stretching. He opened his eyes and saw Timmy in front of his bed.
He screamed a little and realized it was just Timmy.
"Timmy? What are you doing in my room?" he asked.
Timmy gave a big smile and hid the staff behind his back.
"Uh…uh…Your mom wanted to know when you wake up. So I see your awake. If you need me, I'll be in my room."
He phased through the wall into the bedroom right next to him.
"Uh…Okay…" said Danny.
At Casper High, Danny is walking in the halls with his friends.
"So, you say Timmy in your room this morning in his ghost form, holding a stick?" clarified Tucker.
"What did you think he was gunna do? Whack you?" asked Sam.
"I don't really know, but I bet he's up to something." said Danny.
"What would he do with a stick?" asked Tucker.
"It might not be stick."
"Yeah, it could be a magic wand or something." said Sam.
"It's not funny. But you could be right, with the thing about having fairies as godparents being true and all."
"What would he do with a wand?" asked Tucker.
"Do magic?" asked Sam.
"Maybe, lets meet at my house after school." said Danny.
At Fenton Works, Danny just gets home with Sam and Tucker.
"Timmy! Can you come down here?"
Timmy came walking down the stairs.
"Yeah?" he asked.
"This morning, were you holding a stick behind your back?"
"Uh…no. It was something else."
"Then what was it?" asked Tucker.
"Nothing! I wasn't holding anything."
Danny frowned at him.
"Fine, if you really want to know, then come up to the guest room with me."
Timmy led the three to his room. He walked over to the wall and phased his hand inside. He took his hand out and showed them Clockwork's staff.
"You stole Clockwork's staff?" asked Danny.
"Timmy, you just stooped to a new low." said Sam.
"What? I had to." said Timmy.
"Wait, you need to steal it? Why?" asked Danny.
"I lost my fairies! I could probably get them back by going back in time to when my green haired idiot fairy exposed himself to the ponytail guy."
"Do you even know how to use it?" asked Tucker.
"Sure I do! All you gotta do is press this button or point it at someone and say 'Time out' or 'Time in'."
"I don't know if you should try this. I've got a feeling that something bad will happen." said Sam.
"There's only one way to find out." said Timmy, "Time out."
Timmy pressed the button and closed his eyes, expecting time to move backwards.
What he got was different.
