Chapter 5: The Old Days

It was Kayla's last day for vacationing in the Tipton, and because of the accident last time, they decided to spend it by the pool. Lloyd and Barbara were inside in their suite, Curtis was with Lloyd and Barbara, Pim was at the poolside, relaxing, and having thoughts of world domination, Phil and Keely were playing at the pool, Kayla was also with them, and Cody was floating carelessly.

"Cody!" Kayla called as she pushed water towards Cody. He felt it and immediately swam, as to avoid getting any in his nose. He swam up to Kayla, and grabbed her, they both were underwater and stared at each other, and Kayla smiled and rose up. Cody still remained underwater.

Cody's POV:

Kayla must be wondering where am I now. I should get back. Okay, I'll just dive first, then come back. No! Come on, come on, Kayla!

(End of POV)

Kayla's POV:

What's up with Cody, he should've been up already, here we go again. I dived and saw Cody trying to swim up, but he couldn't. I even heard my name, so I swam towards him, and it was a little easier, since we were in broad daylight, and nothing actually happened to Cody, but something almost did.

(End of POV)

"Cody, good thing you're still here, why does this happen to you, and it's my last day, I won't be there saving you, you know."

"I just don't know why? I just wish that I never got to that accident."

"Cody, come here."

"What is it?"

"Phil! Keely!"

They all huddled up at a corner of the pool.

"Phil, I'll tell Cody, but he can't say a word, since anyways, we'll get this done. Cody, you know Phil, well, he's from the future."

"Wha-"

"Shh, we don't want anyone to tell anyone else, get it!"

"Okay, okay." He said in a muffled voice. "So you're gonna change the past, to change my future."

"Right, let's go."

They went to the Martin's suite, and luckily it was empty, Phil brought out the gadget.

"So what are you going to change?"

"Maybe we could change the picnic to some other day." Kayla suggested.

"Yeah, alright, let's get there already."

The gadget was a mini-time machine, but it didn't have enough power to get them back to 2121, but it could get back to over a year. A huge blue flash of light was made meaning the time machine was working. Everything was spinning around them, then, all of a sudden, they were in the Martin's suite a year ago.

"We might be in the lobby already."

"No, we're not, it's before the picnic. I'll go find myself and tell him. You guys hide here."

"Do it Cody." Kayla encouraged.

"I will."

He rushed out of the suite and noticed that on that night, he slept over at Kayla's suite, and Kurt was there.

Meanwhile, Phil, Keely, and Kayla were hiding in different places of the suite, they were all around, and hoped that no one would be awake this early.

Cody opened the door and saw himself, it was almost 7, and everyone was getting up at that time, he slowly approached himself, and whispered in his ear.

"Don't go with the picnic."

"Why?" He thought he was still dreaming.

"Hey you, that wasn't us, that was somebody else."

"Waaah!"

"SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

"Waaah!"

"SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Let me explain, I'm you from the future, and I need to tell you this. Don't push through with the picnic, just do something else, alright."

"But why should I believe you?"

"Do you want to see my proof?"

"Well, yeah."

He started unwinding something by his arms, and his left arm got off.

"Waaah!"

"SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

"See my point?"

"Yes."

"I'll get back now. Make sure you don't go to that picnic, alright."

"Alright. But what am I-"

"Sorry, gotta run, stay at the rooftop."

With that, the future Cody ran as fast as he could and back to the Martin's suite. And the past Cody was wondering if that was real, but he followed what he said.

The future Cody finally reached the Martin's suite, and they transported back to the present.

Cody woke up to see that it was a bright day ahead of him, with the sun shining down on him. He checked his arms and legs, they were intact, luckily the past Cody believed him. He rushed out of the suite, and went to the rooftop, it was a fine day, but he couldn't feel it as well. He may have changed his past, that he doesn't have the prosthetics, but he also lost the love of his life, Kayla.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A young Cody Martin 2 years later, was sitting on the couch, daydreaming. And by this time, he forgot about the time-travel.

Cody's POV:

I was at the park, with Kayla, and Maddie, with Zack. I was still with Kayla, still talking to her, still sharing at her face. Then, we packed up all of our stuff, and were walking back to the Tipton. And Kayla and Zack already passed through, Zack had to go back for something, and I stayed behind. Zack was already crossing the street, but all of a sudden, a car was zooming past everyone on the street, Zack couldn't run from it, he just stood there frozen, but I ran towards him, and pushed him away, I was the one hit by the car, not Zack.

(End of POV)

"Whoa, that was some dream."

Suddenly, the door burst open.

"Cody!"

"Who is-"

It was Kayla, she was slightly taller now, but Cody out-grew her, now Cody was the bigger one.

"I missed you so much."

"Yeah, you too Kayla."

"You know, I can't help thinking that there's something wrong."

"What is it?"

"I can't help thinking that this isn't the truth."

"Huh?"

"Let me explain, I kept having dreams that, the day after I slept-over at your suite, we were supposed to be going to a picnic, but it didn't happen."

"Was there anything else to it?"

"It was so scary, you're safe from there on then, and Zack was about to reach you when a car came zooming past, I ran, and pushed him away, and I was run over by a car."

"What the-"

"I know, it's creepy."

"Cody, now that that's done with, I have something to tell you."

"What?"

"I don't think that you would like this, but,"

"What is it, come on, I'll understand."

"You sure?"

"Yeah Kayla."

"Okay, sorry Cody, but I'm moving."

"You aren't living in the Tipton, right?"

"No, that's not what I mean. The truth is, I'm moving to another country."

"WHAT! BUT WHY?"

"I know Cody, I'm sorry."

"WHO? WHAT? WHY? Kayla…" Cody said in a soft voice. "But, things might not work out."

"We'll try to find a way."

"I don't know, I just don't know what I'll do, Kayla. Without you…"

"I'll miss you too, Cody. But I have to do this."

"But, I might even forget you…"

"No worries, Cody, I have something." She pulled out something from her pocket. "Here. Take it." She held out a necklace, with Yin and Yang, and she gave Cody the black one, Yin. "Wear it." Cody did, and they pulled together and created a balance.

"Thanks, Kayla. But wait up, I still have one more thing."

"What is it?"

"Watch." He pulled out a small charm, a slightly transparent moon, crescent, and it was blue. "Look here." He placed the moon to some sunlight, and it shined brightly. "See, I'll always be with you, with this."

They pulled together into a hug, a warm, intimate one. "I want to make this special, so here." He placed it around her neck. "Cody, thanks, and, and, goodbye."

They kissed for one last time, a long one, and Kayla pulled away, and exited. Cody sat on the couch. Still dreaming, he still remembers Kayla. Kayla walked slowly to the elevator, dreaming of Cody…

A/N: The END! So yeah, it's a 2-part series, and I know that this is a shorter story than the last one. But still, I can't concentrate much anymore, I just found out that one of my friends are moving, away. I had this crush on her ever since the first day of school, and that she was the cause of all of this, why I write in the first place. So, sorry, but I don't think I'll be writing more often…
