A/N: The chapter is pretty self-explanatory. We see both sides heading back, good and bad.

Chapter Twenty: Going Home

The helicopters had managed to collect the escape boat and her passengers before heading back to the ship. The group had been treated for their injuries while they made arrangements for Chapman and the others who had died on the island. Soon the ship had made it back to the States and Broly, Lemo, Cheelai, 17, Weaver and Conrad stood on the docks.

"So, I guess this is goodbye." Cheelai said to the three surviving soldiers. Slivko took a step forward and said, "Maybe we'll see each other again."

He held out his hand, and Lemo took it to shake it. 17 then said, "I'm sorry about the others."

"They died fighting for their country. We'll always honor them." Mills said, wishing his best friend Cole and the others was still with them. Reles then said, "We'll be sure to tell their families all they need to know. We promise to keep Kong and the island a secret for as long as we can."

"Thank you." Broly said with a nod. They all glanced as they looked to the stretcher with Jack Chapman's body as it was wheeled to the hospital to be processed. Cheelai arched a brow and said, "I still don't get it. Why did that Geras guy want Chapman?"

"I don't know." 17 said with a shake of his head. Glancing out to the sea, he then said, "He wasn't like anyone that we've fought before, I'll give him that."

"Didn't you say that he was destroyed?" Lemo asked him. 17 nodded, but then said, "But I'm not sure that he's gone gone."

"We'll just have to see." Weaver said. Conrad then said, "But first, let's get someone home."

They all looked up to see Marlow coming down from the ship, his face cleanly shaven and given a new uniform. He held a bag in both hands and stopped when he reached the bottom of the ramp. Setting the bags down, Marlow then held his hands out to the younger soldiers. Slivko, Reles and Mills each took a turn shaking his hand and he said, "It was an honor, fellas."

"Same." Slivko said while the other two nodded. Glancing to the five he asked, "Shall we get going?"

Broly, Cheelai, Lemo, Weaver and Conrad all nodded in agreement. Waving goodbye to the three soldiers, they walked to the van that was waiting for them. One by one, the six got into the vehicle before driving off to Marlow's home.

(Cue Frieza's Ambition track from DBS Broly)

Back on Skull Island, sand particles were collecting on the beach before taking a familiar shape. When he was fully reformed, Geras' skin turned its usual color and the construct opened his eyes. He groaned at the thought of him failing his mission and new that Berry Blue's master would not like what had happened, but he knew that he had to report it. Removing the Chrono-modulator from his pocket and opened a small portal for himself. He stepped through it to find himself not only back in the future, but on the planet the Berry Blue had brought him on.

Geras looked about when a soldier in scary looking armor walked up to him. The soldier's armor was silver and had large horns on his head and was holding a long spear in his hands. He then said, "Sir Geras, the master is expecting you."

"Please lead the way." Geras requested of the soldier. The soldier turned and started walking with Geras following behind him. It didn't take too long to reach the throne room. Geras' new master sat like a shadow on the massive throne. The master then asked, "Your report, Geras."

Geras kneeled down and said, "The monster must have done its job in killing Kong the first go around, for the forces of the two Earths were able to kill it the second time."

"How?" The figure questioned. Geras slightly raised his head and said, "Though my body had been destroyed, I was still aware of what was going on. I could sense that the clone's power was behaving erratically. And before I left the island and the time period, I could sense that Kong still lives."

"Then they must have given it the poison that I originally planned with." The master said as he started to think. Geras then asked, "Where is Berry Blue?"

"She succeeded in her mission, but unfortunately was detained by the Galactic Patrol in Universe Seven." He said. Geras then asked, "Is my next assignment to free her?"

"No." The master discouraged. Then he revealed, "News of the past few months have begun to spread. Someone else will no doubt be making her escape much easier."

"Who?" Geras asked with an arched brow. His new master then said, "Someone with a score to settle.

(End of track)

"But for now, you will remain on standby." He told the construct. Geras nodded before rising to his feet. He turned and started walking out of the room when suddenly he fell to the floor. The master then questioned, "What is happening here?"

(Cue Monster Mash track from Kong: Skull Island)

"Time has once again been disrupted in my universe." Geras said, taking deep breaths and struggled to get back up. He then revealed, "The war for that universe's time has been changed yet again."

"And what does that mean for us?" His new master questioned. Geras shook his head before saying, "I can not see much after myself had been reduced to a pulp by Shao Kahn and his wife Sindel. All I can feel at the moment is pain."

"Hmm." The master said as he began thinking. Geras shakily rose to his feet and the master then said, "A servant shall show you to your new chambers, Geras."

The construct didn't say anything as said servant walked in, bowed to the master and gestured for Geras to follow. When they both had left, Geras waved his gigantic hand and a screen appeared before him. The screen didn't reveal his face as he went over the data given to him. An alert came up on the screen and his tapped his claws against it to open it. What he saw interested his hidden face when he said, "Interesting. Perhaps they can bring honor back to their family names."

He tapped the screen again and a screech rang through the throne room.

Back on Earth in 1973, the van finally pulled into a neighborhood near Chicago. The group had been traveling for the past few days, taking it easy after their whole ordeal. Not much had been said as they continued the drive through the streets before pulling up to a house. Marlow grabbed his bags, a bouquet of flowers and stepped out of the car. The others came out of the car and stood by the van as they watched the old soldier walk across the road. Cheelai and Lemo remembered to put their disguises back on to avoid suspicion. Marlow walked up the drive way a little before stopping to look at the house. Taking a deep breath, Marlow then continued walking up to the door. When he stood before it, Marlow set his bag down and used his free hand to knock.

It took a minute, but then the door opened to reveal a young man standing there. He looked to be in his mid-thirties, wearing a grey shirt and black pants stood there. He asked, "May I help you?"

"Uh, hi." Marlow greeted, knowing that the boy was somewhat confused. Then he said, "My name is Hank. And I was coming by to see-"

"Hank?" A feminine voice asked. They looked to see a woman in a pink dress and red high heels standing there with a tray of stuff in her hand. When she saw Hank, the woman dropped the stuff she was holding. Marlow chuckled and said, "Grace."

Grace Marlow ran up to her long-lost husband and wrapped her arms around him. She cried a little since he was missing for so long. Hank cried a little too and said, "It's okay. It's okay."

"Mom, who is this man?" The young man asked. Hank and Grace turned to their son and the latter said, "Henry, dear, this is Hank Marlow, your father?"

"D-Dad?" Henry asked, looking between them, never meeting him before. Marlow held out his hand and said, "Hey, son."

Henry took his father's hand and shook it. All three of them were getting choked up by their heartfelt reunion. Grace then asked, "Where have you been? It's been-"

"Been a long time. I know." Hank finished with a nod. Then he said, "Let's just say that I've been stranded on an island for quite a while and it was thanks to those folks over there that I got home safe and sound."

Grace and Henry both look out the door to see the group standing beside the van. Hank's wife then asked, "Do they want to come in for something to eat?"

"I'm sure they would." Hank said, wanting them to stay. But with a shake of his head, he then said, "But they've got somewhere else to be."

Hank nodded to the group and they nodded back before getting back into the van. Broly was the last one to get back in as he gave one last wave to Marlow. Hank grinned and Broly climbed into the back. The group in the van gave one last wave goodbye to Marlow and his family before driving off.

After another long drive, the group finally made it to Seattle, Washington. The van parked some place a little more private so the public wouldn't see what was going on. The spot was an abandoned parking lot and nobody from the city was around. The group climbed out of the van and moved a few feet away from it. Weaver then asked, "So, you really have a time machine?"

"Yep." Cheelai said while 17 took out the capsule holder. Opening it up, 17 took out the time machine and pressed the top. Then tossing it forward, they waited a moment before it became the time machine. Conrad and Weaver were greatly impressed by the technology of the capsule and more impressed with the time machine. The sound of screeching tires made them all look back to see a car pulling into the lot. When it stopped, Houston Brooks and San stepped out of the car. Lemo then asked, "What are you guys doing here?"

"Well, we wanted to see you off." San said as the two scientists walked up to them. Brooks nodded and said, "And to say thank you. For everything."

(Cue I'm Kakarot track from DBS Broly)

"Well, you did come to our rescue on the island." Cheelai said with a grin. Brooks looked to Broly and said, "Nice work out there, Broly."

"Hm." Broly nodded. Weaver then said, "Maybe we'll all meet again in the future."

"Yeah." 17 agreed with a nod, "Maybe."

"And we'll try to keep everything good here." Conrad promised. They all smiled and the time travelers turned to the time machine. A gasp made them all look to their left. They saw a little boy riding on a bicycle with a shocked face staring at them. Cheelai and Lemo noticed that they didn't have their disguises and the former said, "Uh, we should probably get going."

"Yep." 17 said and they all hurried to the time machine. The four quickly climbed into the time machine and 17 pressed a button to close the hatch. And as it closed, their friends from 1973 waved goodbye to them. Broly, Lemo, Cheelai and 17 all gave a wave back and the hatch closed. Pressing the right buttons, the time machine started up again with the turbines spinning and the machine rising into the air a little. The time machine became encased in a sphere of light before disappearing in a flash.
