12:00 AM PST
Marty looked around the room, and he saw that he was floating in front of the bed, and he saw that Marty was lying in it!
'That must be my counterpart!' gasped Marty. 'I guess Biff and his gang knocked him out. Those bastards!'
Then Marty 2 began to stir. 'Mom?' he mumbled, half-asleep, 'Mom, is that you?'
'Just relax, Marty,' Lorraine said, gently. 'You've been asleep for almost two hours.'
'I had a horrible nightmare,' Marty 2 mumbled, still half-asleep. 'It was terrible.'
'Well, you're safe and sound now,' assured Lorraine. 'Back on the good ol' 27th floor.'
'27th Floor?' gasped Marty 2, staring hard at Lorraine. 'Argh! Mom, Mom that can't be you.'
'Yes it's me, Marty,' Lorraine said, concerned, 'Are you alright?'
'I'm fine,' mumbled Marty 2. 'I'm fine. It's just that you're so, you're so big.'
'Everything's going to be fine, Marty,' Lorraine said, soothingly. 'Are you hungry? I can call room service.'
'Lorraine!' shouted Biff.
'Oh my God,' gasped Lorraine, 'it's your father.'
'My father?' asked Marty 2, confused.
Then Biff entered the room, and shouted, 'You're supposed to be in Switzerland, you little son of a bitch!'
'My father!' gasped Marty 2, horrified.
'Did you get kicked out of another boarding school?' demanded Biff.
Then Biff started raging at Lorraine about Marty, and how he was a 'no good kid of hers'.
'I don't believe it,' gasped Marty. 'It's like he's me, but he's not me.'
'He was maybe the one I saw in 1955,' suggested Doc.
Then after Biff pushed Lorraine to the floor, Marty 2 started to run towards Biff, and shouted, 'You son of a bitch!'
'Uh, oh,' muttered Marty. 'I have learned a long time ago that fighting with Biff is useless. He's so much stronger than I am.'
Then Marty saw two members of Biff's gang holding his counterpart back.
'Always the little hothead, huh?' sneered Biff. 'You wanna take a poke at me?' Then Biff punched Marty in the stomach. Marty let out a cry of pain, as did Lorraine.
As Biff laughed, Lorraine stood up, walked over to the stairs, and shouted, ''Damn it, Biff, that's it! I'm leaving!'
'It's not the first time Mom threatened to leave,' mumbled Marty.
Then Biff resorted to financial backmail, until Lorraine finally gave in to Biff.
'Alright, Biff,' Lorraine sighed, in resignition. 'You win. I'll stay.'
Then Biff turned to Marty 2, and shouted, 'As for you, Ill be back up here in an hour, so you'd better not be!' Then Biff left, slamming doors on the way. His gang followed him.
'My poor counterpart seems so confused,' mumbled Marty.
'He was right,' sighed Lorraine, 'and I was wrong.'
'Mom, Mom, what are you saying?' demanded Marty 2. 'You're actually defending him!'
'Because she feels she has to,' Marty mumbled, softly.
Lorraine sat down, grabbed another drink, and added, 'I had it coming. He's my husband, and he takes care of all of us. And he deserves our respect.'
'Respect!' shouted Marty 2, in anguish. 'Your husband? How can he be your husband? How can you leave Dad for him?'
'I'm almost jealous of my counterpart,' Marty said, sighing.
'Leave Dad?' Lorraine asked, concerned. 'Marty, are you feeling okay?'
'No! no, I'm not feeling all right!' Marty 2 cried out, on the verge of tears. 'I don't understand one damn thing that's going on around here and why nobody can give me a simple straight answer.'
Marty 2 then sat down next to Lorraine.
'Oh, they must have hit you on the head hard this time,' mumbled Lorraine.
'Mom, I just want to know one thing,' pleaded Marty, tearfully. Then he held Lorraine's hand, and added, 'Where's my father? Where's George McFly?'
'Marty! George, your father is in the same place he's been for the past 12 years,' wailed Lorraine. Then after taking a sip, she added, 'Oak Park Cemetery.'
Then Marty 2 had a horrified expression on his face.
'Let's follow him,' suggested Doc. 'He's probably going to head over to the cemetary, now.
Then the astral travellers followed Marty 2 over to the grave.
ooooooooooo
After searching for about ten minutes at the graveyard, Marty 2 finally found George's gravestone. It read, 'In Loving Memory Of George Douglas McFly, Born April 1st 1938, Died March 15th 1973.'
'NO! No!' Marty 2 gasped quietly, beginning to cry. He then kneeled down in front of the gravestone, pushing away some plants on the stone.
'This can't be happening!' sobbed Marty 2, with tears running down his cheeks. Looking at the grave, he read, in a shaky whispery voice, 'March 15th 1973?' Then breaking down into tears, Marty 2 sobbed, 'No! Oh, please, God, no! No, please, God! Please God, no, this can't be happening! This can't be happening! This can't be...'
Then Doc's counterpart was there, with Einstein!
'I remember Einstein,' Doc said, sadly. 'I wonder what became of him.'
'I'm afraid it is happening, Marty, all of it!' replied Doc 2, in a grim tone.
'Doc!' gasped Marty 2, his voice snagging on a sob.
'When I learnt about your father,' Doc 2 explained, 'I figured you'd come here.'
'Then you know what happened to him?' Marty 2 asked, as tears were spilling down his cheeks. Then he walked up to Doc 2 and Einstein, and pointed at the gravestone. 'You know what happened, March 15th 1973?'
'Yes, Marty, I know,' replied Doc 2, softly.
'What? What is it?' Marty 2 sobbed, in desperation. 'Please tell me!'
'I'll tell you when we get to the lab, Marty,' Doc 2 explained gently, putting his arm around Marty 2's shoulder, and giving it a squeeze.
'I want to know now, Doc!' pleaded Marty 2, sobbing. Throwing himself into Doc 2's arms and burying his face into Doc 2's shoulder, Marty 2 sobbed, 'This has to be a nightmare! This has to be a nightmare! This has to be...' Marty 2 was crying too hard to say anything more.
Marty began to cry, as well - as he collapsed into Doc's arms, and buried his face into Doc's shoulder. Doc held him, tightly, and rocked Marty back and forth. Meanwhile, Doc 2 was also rocking Marty 2 back and forth, trying to comfort his young friend. Sabrina and Nicole glanced at each other, helplessly.
'I can hardly believe it,' said Sabrina, with a sigh. 'Both Martys are crying.'
'I might be the whole empathetic nature,' suggested Nicole.
'Just let it all out, Marty,' whispered Doc 2, gently rocking Marty 2 back and forth. 'Things will be okay...'
'Doc, I just want out of life!' Marty 2 sobbed. 'Why do monsters like Biff Tannen get to live such awesome lives - and I get stuck with all of this crap? I try to be nice to everyone!'
'That's just what I want to know,' added Marty, sobbing.
'Shhhhh, Marty,' Doc 2 said, softly. 'Just let it all out, and we can go to my lab, and see what we can work out. I promise, things will get better for you! We can fix everything, and then things will be back to normal. You'll see your daddy again, don't worry.'
'Oh, Doc...' Marty 2 sobbed, as he clung tightly onto Doc 2.
'Shhhhh, shhhhh, just let it all out, Marty,' whispered Doc 2. 'You have to trust me, when I say that things will be okay.'
After about half an hour, Marty 2 finally stopped crying, and whispered, 'I guess we can head to the lab, now, Doc.'
'Sure, let's go,' agreed Doc 2. 'I promise to explain to you everything that happened. Then we can go fix it, okay?'
'Sure, I guess,' replied Marty 2.
Doc then gave Marty 2's ribs a little tickle.
'Hey, Doc,' protested Marty 2, laughing, 'that tickles!'
'At least I got you to smile again,' Doc 2 said, with a smirk. 'Let's go, Marty. Everything will be okay, I promise.'
Then Marty had stop crying as well. He whispered, 'I guess we should follow them over to your old lab, Doc.'
'My lab is probably a huge mess,' Doc replied, with a sigh.
Then the astral travellers followed Marty 2, Doc 2, and Einstein to Doc's old lab.
