Seeing is Believing
In Lila's room
Dear Diary,
Well, my first prom went well, surprisingly. Odd and Yumi seemed like they were enjoying themselves. Ulrich was happy to take Milly to the prom. Especially since their dancing ticked Sissi off. Sissi didn't understand how Ulrich could take someone as young as Milly to the prom. As the night went on, she just kept getting angrier. It was hilarious! I had a fun time myself, even though I went alone. Well, I better get going. Going to see my father. It's strange seeing Jeremy so young sometimes…
Write more soon,
Lila
I close my diary and lock it with its key. I then put the key and diary in one of my desk drawers. I take my bag as I walk to the door and open it. I close it and lock it. I take out my phone, and I glance down the hallway to make sure nobody will overhear my conversation.
"Hey Mary?" I whisper.
Mary turns the phone on as she pretends to yawn. I roll my eyes.
"Yes Lila? How may I assist you?"
"Listen, I was wondering... what exactly charges this phone? I know it's my father's old retro phone… and thankfully he doesn't realize it's the same one I'm using. I mean, I get texts from Jeremy, Odd, Ulrich, and Yumi, but I never need to charge it. How come?" I ask as I get to the stairs. I start walking down the stairs.
"Simple really, I believe it has the same power supply it originally did when he used it. He also gave you that charger, you found a while back," Mary explains as I reach the bottom of the stairs.
"Thanks Mary. I've been meaning to tell you… I still haven't figured out your role on Lyoko yet," I whisper.
"I haven't either. Perhaps…. We can see if I have any powers on Lyoko. If I do, we'll need to be discreet about it."
"Right," I nod. "I better get going to class. Talk to you soon, Mary."
"Okay Lila. I hope you have a well-educated class," she says as she turns the phone off.
In Mrs. Hertz's class
During class, a guest speaker is now giving a lecture.
"The heating plant that we have, is powered by our very own nuclear reactor. This of course, produces a great deal of energy,"
Doctor Delacre points to each part of the nuclear plant on the projected diagram with his ruler.
Xana never blew the nuclear reactor up in the future, despite his one attempt my father told me about in the past. I always wondered why he never attacked the nuclear reactor again. Something like that would annihilate all of humanity. Most likely Xana needed some humans to be kept alive as slaves. I continue to take notes as the projector keeps rolling the diagram.
"This plant is truly powerful. It's most likely the most powerful one in the world. With me being the chief engineer, our main concern is safety. Every safety measure has been set in place and as well as France's finest security protocols," Doctor Delacre says. The projector keeps rolling.
"I would be happy to answer questions if anyone has any," Doctor Delacre finishes.
Jeremy raises his hand first. I raise my hand a few seconds after him.
"First the young man, then the young lady sitting next to him," Doctor Declare decides. I lower my hand.
"Sir, I have a question," Jeremy says.
"Please, go ahead Jeremy," Mrs. Hertz urges. He stands up as I look at him.
"I'm curious if there are any projects that you are aware of, that consists of an atomic – powered computer system. One that combines virtual particles, and materialize those in the real world," Jeremy says, referencing the supercomputer and my mother. Odd stops doodling and smiles at Jeremy, Ulrich looks at him as well.
"I see," Doctor Delacre nods. He sniffles as he fixes his glasses with one finger.
"Well that clearly sounds like it's something from a science fiction movie, sorry. No such projects exist," Doctor Delacre answers. He turns to me.
"Miss your question?" he asks as Jeremy sits down.
"Do you truly believe that your safety measures are the finest in France? What if a foreign object, or a hacker, let's say, were able to take control of the nuclear device?" I ask. I can feel Jeremy's eyes on me. It's a little unnerving, but I ignore it. But I need to know, if this is when Xana plans to use the plant.
"Yes, I do believe the safety measures and our security protocols, are the finest in France. With the extreme care for our plant, no foreign object or hackers would be able to use the nuclear power plant for notorious purposes," Doctor Delacre answers.
"Okay – well what if it were something that is a technologically advanced, learning, autonomous being that has infinite patience and can do a million things at once?" I ask.
Doctor Delacre chuckles a little. "You kids do like your science fiction movies I suppose. No, nothing like that exists in this word."
I sit back down as Mrs. Hertz takes the slides out of the projector. She puts them into her pocket, leaving the projector on. She walks to our desk.
"Jeremy and Lila both excel in this class. They like to dream big, however," Mrs. Hertz jokes as our classmates laugh at us. Jeremy puts his hands on his cheeks and I sigh. Herb laughs loudly as Odd blows a raspberry. Suddenly the projector screen blacks out. Odd and the others gasp.
"What's going on here?" Mrs. Hertz's asks as she walks over to the projector screen. She jiggles the camera and presses the red power button on the projector. Jeremy and I look at each other in concern. Odd merely shrugs in response.
The bells ring, signaling class is over.
Outside the science building
Our classmates leave the room, happy to be done. One by one we leave the classroom and walk down the stairs.
"Something tells me we have a situation stirring," Jeremy says.
"I agree with you," I nod.
"There's probably nothing to worry about you two," Odd disagrees.
We reach the bottom of the stairs and get to the front door.
"And I'm betting Xana is the cause of this," Jeremy protests as we walk out of the building. We walk to Yumi who has been waiting for us.
"Not everything has to be related to Xana. It seemed like it was just a short circuit," Odd insists.
"A lot of short circuits seem to be happening these days Odd," I remind him. Yumi nods.
"Odd," Mr. Delmas calls out, walking up to us.
"I've decided. You and your friends may form the group, you've requested. I believe it's called the um… fox trot fanatics?" Mr. Delmas asks unsure of the name.
"That's great!" Odd cheers.
"Actually sir, we're called the pop rock progressives'," Yumi corrects politely.
Mr. Delmas holds his finger in the air.
"However, the band must be opened to everyone. Is that agreeable?" he asks.
"That's fine by me!" Odd exclaims happily as we nod in unison.
Mr. Delmas nods in agreement as he walks away. Odd slides down on the ground.
"Rock and roll rules!" he exclaims. We nod again in unison, happy for Odd. He checks his watch.
"Let's get going now. We can get to the photocopier, and make fliers before lunch time Jeremy," Odd says.
Jeremy shakes his head.
"Rock and roll isn't really my forte. I think it'll be best if I get to the bottom of the outage that occurred, during class,"
Jeremy says as he grabs a hold of his bag. He starts to leave.
"Best of luck Jeremy! We'll see you later," I smile.
Inside the gymnasium
We are now in the gymnasium. One of our classmates, Mike, walks on the stage. Mike has black hair tied back into a ponytail. He has a black t shirt with a red sweater underneath it, a gray hoodie tied around the waist of his pants. He goes to the drum set and takes the drum sticks. He starts his rhythm, hitting each of the drums. He hits the cymbal, completing his beat.
"Alright!" Mike exclaims.
Odd nods.
"Well, you definitely have style. That beat you were playing, it's from Heavy Metal. Is that right?" he asks.
Mike hits the cymbal again.
"Of course. They're great, I love them," Mike says.
"Mike… I'm sorry. But I think band is looking for something that's just a little bit more… traditional. Do you know what I mean?" Yumi says, trying to let him down easy.
Mike shrugs and puts the drum sticks down, then leaves the stage and exits the gymnasium. Naomi is next to take the stage. She has light dyed purple hair, with a flower in it, a short pink tank top with straps, a short purple skirt with a pink stripe around her waist, ankle high pink socks, and flip flops. Odd gasps as he sees her, a smile stretching across his face. I roll my eyes.
"Hi everyone," Naomi greets.
"Naomi, how's it going? I never knew you were a drummist," Odd says.
Naomi bats her eyes as she puts her hand near her hair.
"I've practiced a bit. It's been my dream to be in a band, like forever," Naomi says as she puts her hands together, swaying her body back and forth.
"Sure. You can start anytime Naomi," Ulrich insists.
Naomi picks up the drum sticks and starts her rhythm. She starts with a fast drum beat on one drum as she makes several slow beats, then hits the cymbals several times. Once she's finished, she places the drum sticks back on the drums as she gets up. She bows. Odd gets up from his chair and starts clapping.
"Awesome Naomi!" Odd exclaims, with too much enthusiasm, he looks at us.
"She's really good don't you think? I don't think we'll find anyone better," Odd says.
"No," I say glaring at him. "We all know why you want her in the band. Besides, her drumming isn't-"
"But with a little practice she could-"
"No," I repeat.
Odd frowns as he turns to Naomi.
"Sorry Naomi," Odd says. Naomi shrugs and walks to the door. Before she leaves, she looks me in the eye, like we're having a stare down. Was I too harsh? It only lasts a moment. She quickly looks away and leaves the room. Some time passes and we start to get bored. Odd grabs the drum sticks and taps the drums on his legs. Ulrich yawns a little as Yumi and I continue to listen to his rhythm. The door opens and we hear Jeremy panting.
"Jeremy?" Ulrich asks as he looks over at Jeremy. Jeremy wipes his head and sighs, walking over to us.
"Xana's active. At least, I'm almost positive he is," Jeremy surmises as he sits down next to us.
"Are you sure?" Yumi asks.
Jeremy takes his glasses off as he wipes his head again. He puts them back on.
"I checked the pylon outside. The current is cutting out power all over the school. If the pylon goes beyond its voltage limit, there's a chance it could explode!" Jeremy exclaims.
"What would Xana accomplish by doing that?" Ulrich asks.
"I have no idea, Ulrich," Jeremy replies.
"Guess who," Sissi announces. We look over to see her, Nicholas, and Herb. Sissi takes a chair and places it in front of her, then sits down on it backwards.
"Look it's clear to my friends and I you don't like us. But, if I remember correctly, my father said the band is opened to everybody. Now, isn't that right?" she asks.
We give her a look.
"Your little group is too weird for me, don't worry. Nicholas here, does love the drums," Sissi mentions.
"Him a drummer?" Odd asks with disbelief.
"Well, looks like I'm off. I'll let you guys know what I find!" Jeremy exclaims, running out of the gymnasium. Nicholas goes to the stage and takes the drum sticks. He taps the drum sticks and starts his rhythm. His rhythm starts with a rapid beat on one drum, and then another. I notice he uses one of the mechanisms below the drums with his foot, as he continues his beat. He nods his head to the beat as we all look at him in shock. He continues with the other drum again, moving between each drum. The rhythm starts to slow down as he hits the cymbal once.
"Yeah!" he exclaims.
He smiles to Sissi and Herb who claps. Ulrich, Yumi, and I can't help but clap too. Sissi laughs.
"I think this means, you've just found your drummer," Sissi says as she gets up from the chair and walks away, Herb and Nicholas in tow.
"Look – I'll admit Nicholas has talent. But the drummer, of our band? He can be related to Elvis Presley and I still wouldn't let him join. Sissi's doing this to cause trouble within our group," Odd says.
"Odd, I think she's just trying to be helpful. I mean, Nicholas does know how to play the drums. Really well too," Yumi admits.
"She does have a point Odd," I agree.
"Much better than Naomi anyways," Ulrich remarks.
"Come on Ulrich, she's just starting out. I'm sure she just needs a little more practice," Odd defends.
"Something tells me Odd, she needs at least a few years," Ulrich jokes.
"If you guys feel that way, then you'll have to find a new guitarist! There's no way I'm letting Nicholas be our drummer!" Odd exclaims.
"Then I guess you're going to need, to find a new singer," Yumi says.
"And a new technical assistant," I add.
Ulrich puts his hands behind his head and sits back.
"If this was Sissi's plan to cause trouble, it's going well," Ulrich sighs.
We're suddenly interrupted as we hear a trombone playing. We turn around to see Jim playing the trombone.
"Do you guys have room for a slide trombone?" Jim asks as he smiles.
"Huh?" We all ask in unison.
Afterwards
We decide to listen to Jim. He starts to play his trombone. Hearing the trombone being played is a strange feeling, simply because I've never heard a trombone being played before. I look at the strange instrument, but something tells me this instrument does not belong in a rock and roll band. He stops as he turns to us.
"How was that?" Jim asks.
Odd walks over to him.
"Jim, see the thing is we're a rock band. I'm not sure we can fit the trombone into our act," Odd says.
Yumi's phone starts to ring as she picks it up. She listens to who I assume is Jeremy on the other end.
"We'll be there soon," Yumi says, she looks at him. "Jim, I'm sorry but we're going to have to re schedule you,"
We start to run off.
"You guys aren't going to leave! You still need to make me a part of your band!" Jim exclaims before we run out of the gymnasium.
"Sorry Jim! Another time, promise!" I exclaim before closing the door.
In the woods
We manage to get to the manhole in the woods. Odd pulls the sewer manhole cover off. Ulrich takes out his phone as he calls Jeremy.
"Jeremy, we'll be there in a few," Ulrich informs. He goes down the ladder first, then Yumi. I follow after her, and Odd goes down last. Ulrich takes his skateboard and Odd's, Yumi grabs her skateboard, I grab my scooter, as Odd makes it down. Ulrich throws Odd his skateboard. Odd catches it, then throws it to the ground and jumps on it.
"Yeah!" Odd exclaims. We continue riding, with Odd behind me on his skateboard. We reach the end of the sewer and prop our skateboards and scooter against the wall. Ulrich climbs the ladder first and emerges from the sewers. Yumi follows after with a helping hand from Ulrich. I climb out without Ulrich's help. Odd finally climbs out and pulls the sewer cover back in place. We start running on the bridge.
Afterwards
In the lab
We're now in,the elevator doors open on the computer lab, and I see my father is typing on his keyboard.
"Finally!" Jeremy exclaims, with relief. We gather around the monitor. A window on the computer is open, showing a percentage of what appears to be the pylon.
"I've figured out Xana's plan. Xana plans to charge the pylon and bring it to full capacity. Once, he does that he'll unleash all of it," Jeremy explains.
"Where would he unleash it?" Odd asks.
"Guess," Jeremy replies.
"You mean…" I trail off.
"That's right. On the nuclear power plant," Jeremy answers.
"But – if he does that, it'll create a short circuit. When that happens-" Yumi shakes her head, her head, not wanting to finish the sentence as Odd gasps.
"The pylon's limit is a million volts. When its reached, Xana can explode everything," Jeremy explains.
"That's nuclear sabotage! This is a bit out of our league, don't you agree?" Yumi asks.
"How so?" Ulrich asks.
"Remember, if we fail on Lyoko, the entire city can be destroyed!" Yumi exclaims.
"We need to tell the proper authorities," Yumi says.
"Yumi we can't. there will be questions a lot of questions," Jeremy says. "We'll have to explain everything. And if they discover the supercomputer, they'll discover Xana. They'll force us to pull the plugs."
"I know. Then we'll lose Aelita. We're talking about a serious disaster, this about the safety of the everyone we care about, and the city," Yumi defends.
"But Yumi if we do this…." I trail off.
"I know, I'm sorry. We all care for Aelita, but what good are we to her if we're all gone?" Yumi asks.
I sigh. Jeremy and I look at Yumi, who stares back at us.
"Look… let's take a vote. We can decide if we should tell the authorities, or not," Jeremy says. "Who votes for?" he asks.
"For," Yumi answers raising her hand.
"Against," Jeremy answers.
"Against," Odd answers.
"Undecided," I raise my hand, as this is a very difficult decision.
I'm not trying to sound like an egomaniac… but I need my future self to be born. If I fail in this timeline, and my old timeline reliagns it with this one… there needs to be another Lila Belpois. It'll be her turn, to save the timeline. My mother and father need to meet, I need to make sure events follow as they are supposed to. Otherwise… no Lila Belpois and Xana rules Earth forever!
"Aelita, I'm very sorry. I think this a big risk, that we can't afford to take. I vote for," Ulrich says.
Jeremy raises his hands making with two fingers raised on each of them.
"Well then two votes for and two against. One vote undecided. With Lila's undecided vote, that makes it a tie. Which means, we aren't telling anyone," Jeremy says as he puts his hands on his hips.
"I think we need to tell everyone!" Yumi exclaims.
"Don't I have the right to vote?" Aelita asks.
Jeremy nods. "Well sure you do. That way there won't be a tie. Lila you're still undecided?"
I nod.
"Well… then I'm voting for," Aelita says.
"You are?" Jeremy and I ask in unison.
"Thousands of people shouldn't die, just to protect me," Aelita explains.
"Thank you Aelita," Yumi says.
Inside the freight elevator
We're In the freight elevator, asI try to relax. Hoping that Xana doesn't succeed. I lean against the elevator wall, trying to relax my muscles one by one…I couldn't help but feel an incredible burden.
What if Xana succeeds here? What if my interference is going to ruin everything? No, I can't think like that, there's a mission to attend to. I need to be patient, and wait to see how events turn out, I think.
The freight elevator's doors open as Ulrich, Odd, and I walk to our perspective scanners.
Odd goes into his scanner on the right, Ulrich takes the left, and I take the middle. The scanners close.
The scanner starts to spin. I close my eyes, waiting for the familiar gust of wind and bright light. My father is upset right now, so he doesn't talk during the virtualization. The gust of wind billows my hair and time machine necklace. The scanner completes the process as the gust of wind and bright light fully engulf me.
….
Odd, Ulrich, and I land safely in the desert sector.
"You guys… we'll make it right?" Odd asks.
"I really hope we do Odd," Ulrich replies as we look at Aelita who is nearby.
"Me too," I nod.
"The scan found the activated tower. It's in the desert region, and should be close by to an Oasis," Jeremy informs.
We nod and start running to Aelita.
"I'm familiar with that area, it'll be on the other plateau," Aelita points as it looks like we'll have to cross several plateaus.
It's times like these, Mary, where I wish I had the vehicles my father eventually makes.
I understand your position, but that doesn't happen for quite a while.
I know, I know.
We start running and soon make it to the other plateau. We search the area for the tower for several minutes without any luck. Frustrated, we decide to take a break. Ulrich slashes his katana on the ground, Odd sits on a rock, and I do the same.
I believe I may able to help you on Lyoko now…
Yes, Mary? Were you able to find some sort of ability we can use without letting the others know?
Truth be told… I rearranged some of your avatar's coding, and I managed to give you two new powers, which will be believed as spells, that centers around magic. It will be my abilities flowing through you.
You'll need to pretend you're activating these "spells" by chanting in Latin. I hope you understand that I had to include reasonable life point deductions, otherwise it would cause too much suspicion.
Now, 'Bomb' simulates converting a portion of your 'magic' into explosive energy that is converted into your staff. It forms a big ball of energy, which can clear out a large group of monsters. It will cost you forty life points. Be careful with it; it can damage allies too if they don't get away from the blast radius in time.
'Strength' makes it so that your magic is switched to strictly enhance your physical abilities, meaning you can't use any spells while in this state. Your strength and speed receive a significant increase. You will be able to overpower monsters rather quickly, but it costs twenty points to activate due to the 'strain' on your body. It has a time limit of one minute. You'll need to be quick. Otherwise you'll have to reactivate it, which again, will cost you twenty life points.
Thanks… I'll keep that in mind. Well, at least you'll be able to help on Lyoko now.
You're welcome.
We stop running as we make it to the oasis.
"So, where is this tower exactly?" Odd asks.
"It's hidden right now. It's here, somewhere," Aelita replies. "Besides, do you see the pulsations?" Aelita asks as she we look at the pulsations again, converging around the area. "They all meet here," she says as she places her hands on her hips.
"I'm sure you guys can find it! The tower should be close. The pylon is going to be overloaded soon," Jeremy informs, masking his panic in his voice.
Ulrich slashes his sword in the sand, as Odd sits down. I sit down myself.
I sigh, trying to think of a way to find the tower. I look at the oasis, its crystal clear image bothering me for some reason.
Say Mary… do you think that Oasis is strange?
Well… no. Why do you ask?
I pick up a rock as Odd continues to toss his rock in the air with his hand. I chuck the rock into the Oasis, as a small beam of light distorts the Oasis.
"Woah…" Odd trails off as he places his rock on the ground. He puts his hand in the Oasis before I can stop him. The Oasis's image continues to disrupt. Odd looks at his hand, and then looks at me, we nod in unison.
"I think we've found it," Odd announces as we get up. This surprises Aelita and Ulrich as they look our way.
"Xana's tricking us. I felt, that something was wrong with this Oasis. I wanted to test out my theory… and it looks like my theory was correct," I explain.
"And, there's no water down there. Just the surface," Odd adds.
"I'll go down first," I insist as I step back a little and prepare to jump.
Lila… shouldn't you-
I start running and headfirst into the Oasis. I keep my feet together and land perfectly. Odd falls next, then Ulrich, and lastly Aelita. We spot the tower which is surrounded by jagged rocks.
I stand corrected. Well done.
We start running to the tower and soon make it to where the jagged rocks are. Soon we are only a few feet away from the tower. Odd points to it.
"There," he says.
A Krab appears and charges its laser. The Krab shoots Odd in the leg, which sparks with electricity.
"Odd!" Jeremy exclaims.
"I hate those horrible Krabs," Odd says.
"Me too. But I think I have something that will take care of them," I say as I take my sword out. I start to chant in Latin.
Mary now's our chance. Let's try our new strength spell, as you call it.
Right. Activating… now. Remember, you have a time limit of one minute. It'll, appear on your father's monitor.
Right, let's go!
My muscles enhance, and I stop chanting.
"Lila what are you going to-" Ulrich starts but I interrupt him as I move almost as fast as him when he his using his supersprint.
"Lila you just lost twenty life points! Be careful with that spell! There's – there's some sort of time limit with it!" Jeremy warns. I jump in the air as the Krab tries to charge its laser. I land on the Krab and use my sword to stab the target eye. It starts to fall as I jump onto the ground, it explodes.
"Nice job!" Odd compliments.
"Thanks," I say as I begin to put my sword away. I hear something in the distance, the sounds of moving feet.
Incoming, don't put your sword away!
I ready my sword again as two Krabs appear, one of them fires a laser at me. I quickly block it with my sword, and without the use of strength. I still need to recover from the first use. Ulrich takes out his sword. Odd readies his laser arrows.
"Aelita, it's you they're after. Go on, run," Ulrich says as she gasps and starts running.
"Aelita!" Odd exclaims as another Krab appears and starts chasing after her. It begins to fire at her. Odd runs to help her and throws himself in front of the Krab. The Krab's laser devirtualizes Odd. Ulrich and I quickly move to where Odd was devirtualized, which puts us in front of the three Krabs. Ulrich's Krab fires its laser at Ulrich, who blocks it with his katana blade. My Krab does the same. I block the laser, too.
Mary... that magic bomb. How long does it take to charge?
Approximately thirty seconds... I'll begin the process now. My powers will channel directly to your staff, but remember you need to start speaking Latin so it'll appear as if you are performing magic.
Right!
I begin to chant in Latin. Ulrich notices this as my staff starts to glow purple.
"Lila! You just lost forty life points with that spell! It looks like your magic is being channeled into your staff for a big attack. If you're hit after the attack, you'll be devirtualized! Ulrich, once she readies her attack, you'll need to defend her!"
"I'm on it Jeremy. I think I have an idea of how to do it, too," Ulrich says as he starts to use his super speed to distract the Krab's fire. They start to fire on him, as he continues to super speed. It's almost as if he is forming a triangle around them. He creates two clones as he surrounds the Krabs. One of the clones runs at superspeed as he jumps in the air, the Krab fires its laser at him. This causes the Ulrich clone to disappear.
Lila, the magic bomb is ready!
Right!
I take out my staff as I finish chanting. A large, humming ball of energy forms above the staff. With two hands, I swing my staff in the direction of the Krabs.
"Ulrich fuse your clone and get out of there!" I exclaim as the ball of energy starts to head toward the Krabs.
"Right, fusion!" Ulrich exclaims as he fuses back with his clone. He starts using his super speed to run away from the Krabs position. I start running myself. I look back to see the Magic Bomb hitting the Krabs, exploding them. The impact causes a shock wave, knocking Ulrich and I to the ground. Ulrich's body sparks a little, as do my legs. Aelita runs up to us.
"Are you two okay?" Aelita asks as she checks on Ulrich, then me.
"We're fine," I say as we start to get up.
"It's up to you Aelita," Ulrich says as he gets up, gesturing to the tower.
Aelita nods and starts running to the tower. She slowly walks up to it, then phases into it.
"Jeremy how many life points do I have left?" I ask out of curiosity.
"30. Your first spell cost you 20, the magic bomb you just unleashed caused you 40. And, the shockwave cost you 10 life points. You're lucky Lila, but we're running out of time. The pylon is almost fully loaded," Jeremy informs.
This needs to work... although I have a feeling we changed events slightly.
Maybe the order of events, but not drastically. I have a feeling our interference really doesn't hurt the timeline. I'm starting to think… we will only impact the Lila, that will be born in this future. Our future, has already happened… and I just have this theory…
Theory?
I think my time traveling, will not impact the timeline I left…
There's no way of knowing that right now…
Ulrich and I look to see the tower changing from its red aura to its blue aura. We sigh in relief.
"Return to the past... Now!"
The big white bubble engulfs us all.
Earlier the same day
Inside the gymnasium
My eyes open, and I am now back in the gymnasium. After much collaborating with Odd, we decide to let Jim and Nicholas join the band.
Odd readies his guitar, as ready our instruments. I finish, reading the microphone for Yumi.
"Okay ready, 3, 4, and," Odd begins and we all start playing our instruments. Nicholas plays the drums, as Ulrich plays the piano.
"A mystery girl, from another world," Yumi starts.
Jim uses his trombone.
This is great… everyone, including my father looks happy. Sissi doesn't look too happy, though, not that I'm surprised. After this… I need to check in on Mary… I think, watching everyone perform with my father. He claps, making some sort of joke about the band causing a nuclear explosion. I giggle at that.
Afterwards
In Lila's room
I walk into the room and close the door, I see Mary sitting on the bed. Turning my attention to her she asks,
"How did being a technical assistant turn out?"
"It went well," I reply.
Mary smiles slightly as she looks at me. I can't tell what she's thinking, but it's as if she's concerned about something. But there's a lot to be concerned about when dealing with multiple possibilities, thanks to time travel. Everyone's future is at risk, and the only thing I know for sure is this: I'm going to make sure my future does not come to pass in this timeline.
Please review, until next time!
