Before get started...
Two users mentioned to me that Jessica was with Lucy when Lucy was with Benjamin but wasn't when Wyatt and Rufus found her. Yes, Jessica was with Lucy. But to make the story, even slightly, longer and more dramatic I have other plans for Jessica. What went down between the three is going to unravel in this chapter... I think...
And, as I've promised... I'm going to get into Lucy's journal a little bit. But not... What you might think.
Another thing, on the Timeless account I started, I [will] publish a book called, "Randomness: Timeless," so, check that out. It's going to be reviews, tags, rants, etc. I'm hoping that some of the other people on the account (you know who you are ? ﾟﾘﾝ) will also write in it so you will get different opinions on different things.
Without further adieu... Chapter 7.

He is always underestimated. Of course, they locked him in handcuffs then locked the door as they left.
When they were out of sight, Flynn laughed. "Oh, I'm a SWAT team member. If I lock a "terrorist" in a room... Of course he won't escape!"
The door was no problem. He looked around the room and easily found a stiff-enough card. He slipped it between the knob and the handle and easily let himself out.
Now to get out of the building...
Flynn found a map displayed, of Mason Industries, on the wall nearest to him. He found a route that should lead him out, relatively, unnoticed.
"Hey!" He heard from behind.
He was so close... he could see the door!
"Put your hands up."
It was just a security guard. This would be easy. Flynn put his hands in the air and began walking to him. "You caught me."
"Put your hands behind your back."
Flynn did so and waited until he felt cool metal touch his skin. He elbowed the guard square in the nose. The guard recoiled and held his broken nose. Flynn whipped around and caught the man's head in the crook of his elbow. Putting just enough pressure to make him fall and fall asleep.
"Sorry."
He ran out the door this time and successfully made it away from the compound.
"Security could be a good idea."

"What happened while you were gone?" Agent Christopher questioned. "Where'd he take you?"
They had just settled into the conferencing room and the questions were fired without missing a beat. Lucy cleared her throat. She was under the gaze of four people. Two of them were soft and the other two just wanted to know what happened.
"He took me to a building and someone talked to me."
"Who? What did they say?" It was Mason this time.
"He just kept saying I knew too much. He said he was going to kill us. He'd start with me."
"That was it?"
Lucy looked down at her hands. "Yeah."
From across the table, Wyatt watched her carefully. She wasn't telling the whole truth. Something was missing.
"What did you know too much about?" further inquired Connor.
"He wouldn't say," She looked up more confident in her answer this time. "Um... I don't know much else. He came in and out. But... May I go home? Please?"
"Uh... Yeah. Yes, I'm sorry to have kept you." Christopher said right away. Conor looked hesitant so Lucy left as soon as she could.

Flynn ran to mothership.
But as he entered the church... It wasn't there.
Of course it wasn't. He let out a low growl. With smart, long strides he crossed the room to the computers.
It landed here this morning. Then jumped a few hours later to 1911. He couldn't trace where it went after that.
"What the-?"
He through the mouse on across the table, causing it to disconnect from the computer. Expecting it to hit the hard, wooden desk, he was surprised when it hit something softer.
Curiosity got the better of him. He stepped forward and pulled the mouse away. Then low and behold, Lucy's journal sat under a piece of paper.
I left it in the time machine.
He nimbly opened and a paper fell out. With a furrowed brow, he bent over and picked it up.
'I tried to stop him. It didn't work. I'm sorry. I wasn't apart of this. I swear. I wrote this before we took off... It's all Rittenhouse. There's a hit on Lucy.
-Anthony'
He cursed under his breath as he shoved the paper and the journal in his pocket.
He exited the church and jumped into a taxi. He sighed as he ran his hands through his black hair. He pulled the journal out again and flipped through it. Taking in a familiar sight.
Until it wasn't. Flynn memorized this journal. He knew every period, every comma, every word. When the words became unfamiliar... He actually started panicking. Until he started taking in the words.
"We, Flynn and I, believe we are making serious progress. Rittenhouse seems to be crumbling. But slowly. Wyatt and Rufus don't know that we are helping Flynn in a round about way, but I think we are helping the world.
But I still have doubts.
If Rittenhouse is coming to an end, at some point, what would the world look like? I keep helping Flynn but then I think about the outcomes and it scares me. We can never know what will happen. Ever.
If we wipe Rittenhouse off the board, how would the current timeline change? We are taking these trips because someone as a goal in mind. If that goal were accomplished, would the ones who came back in that time machine be the only ones who knew that time travel existed? Would time travel exist? Would they actually be able to come home? Or would they have found a way to travel without financial stability from Rittenhouse?
Jessica Logan's murder had to be linked to Rittenhouse. The murderer had to be linked to Rittenhouse. Who knows more about Rittenhouse's dirty laundry... Than Flynn?
My question is, if Flynn knows she was basically killed by Rittenhouse, he knew the killer... Why didn't he kill the murderer? He has ties to Rittenhouse. Why let him live? He could know things about Rittenhouse.
I feel like there will never be an escape. Rittenhouse will always be here and we'll have to accept it. But can we? Can we accept something so cruel and evil to the world?"
That was the first change of entry he saw. The next one he found was further back and was talking about today's date. She had spoken to Rittenhouse, well Benjamin Cahill. But she said Benjamin Cahill was Rittenhouse.
Boy was he going to have a talk with Lucy.
"Take a left here," He told the cabbie When he located his wanted destination he told him to stop.
He got out and told the driver to wait. He walked up the walk to the front and knocked two times.
Lucy answered right away. Her face expressed surprise. She looked over her shoulder before stepping out of the house. Flynn took a step back. "What the heck are you doing here?!" She whispered yelled.
Flynn pointed to the taxi behind him. "We need to talk."
Lucy studied the man for a long moment. She sighed, stepped back in the house and came back out with her purse. She started walking to the car, Flynn following. "I swear, if you do something I don't like... I will not hesitate to tell someone."
With an amused smirk, Flynn opened the door for Lucy, "Yes ma'am," then climbed in behind her.

Well that was longer than I thought it would be. And because of that, in two weeks' time we will discuss what happened with Jessica and Lucy while in the care of Rittenhouse.
The quote about "Rittenhouse's dirty laundry than Flynn," was actually something I saw on tumblr. It was actually a really good point.
Man this chapter was actually quite difficult. Lucy's journal part alone took 15 minutes. I rewrote about 2 different times. Mainly because I have two different ideas for turns. Another fact about that section... Most of that was my questions. Questions that I have. Lol. So yeah. ? There's probably more me than Lucy in that section.
So... I seriously need your vote on this...
Do you want this to become a Garcy fic or a WyLu one.
I really need to know; your vote is vital! ? But really...
Ooh! Or... Or... Should I do something kind of like the Choose Your Own Adventure books and make alternate chapters for alternate outcomes?
(I just made more work for myself. ? ﾟﾘﾂ)
But please let me know:
A: WyLu
B: Garcy
Or C: Alternate chapters for an alternate ending.
Lol. Um... I think that's it... Uh... Yeah. Thanks for reading! I hope you're enjoying!
