A/N: Here is chapter one, hope you enjoy! This is kind of 'out there', even for a Pretender plot line, but I figured hey, it's Fanfiction! Let me know if you like this so far by reading and reviewing.

DISCLAIMER: I don't own the Pretender (sadly I'm not that awesome) and I probably don't own a lot of other stuff in this story. The only thing I do own will be my original characters and ideas.

CHAPTER ONE

"What?" she asked, picking up the phone.

"The videos are ready and I found something else. I got some thing from yesterday that hadn't been encrypted yet. I think you're really going to want to see these." said Broots, sounding really excited.

"Lay off the caffeine Broots, you're starting to sound like a fast forwarding recording. I'm on my way down." said Miss Parker, hanging the receiver up.

She was glad that the video was ready, but she was now also hung up on this new, young man. She decided that she would ask Broots and Sydney about it. If anyone knew about a new hire it would be one of those two with all of the rumor buddies they had around here. As she rode the elevator down to the sim lab she couldn't stop thinking about the smile the young man had given her. It was almost a smirk, like he knew something that she didn't and he was amused and also a bit sad.

As soon as she got to Sydney's office and saw the two of them standing around his computer she yelled her question at them.

"Hey, do you either of you know anything about the guy with Raines and Lyle?" she asked, walking into Sydney's office and seeing their faces.

"I think it would be safe to say that we know something." said Sydney, looking at Broots.

"Yeah, I think that would be safe." said Broots.

They both looked at Miss Parker with the same look of fresh surprise and excitement.

"What'd you find?" she asked, coming around to look at the screen.

Broots looked to Sydney with a smile on his face. The one that said, "This is so cool, but if we get caught I'm so dead." and Sydney smiled a more reassuring grin back.

"Start from the beginning." he said, and pointed at his computer screen.

"Right, that's usually a good place to start. Hop to Broots." said Miss Parker, leaning on Sydney's desk.

"Ok, so this is from the day of your plane crash, 3:22 am here. This is from sublevel 13 in one of the empty rooms they were using for storage." said Broots, bringing up the black and white video.

The cameras watched and recorded the empty space for about ten seconds before anything happened. Then it gradually became apparent what was going on in the room. It was like there was a ball of static electricity. Suddenly there was a flash and then a few more as a small sort of round light appeared in the middle of the boxes all around. Then there was one large flash and then everything was back to normal. At least that what Miss Parker thought.

Nothing happened for a few more seconds and then someone stood up so that they were in the camera's view. It was a young woman who was completely naked and dripping wet. She stood still for a few seconds before finally looking up at the camera. She turned around to face the boxes at the back of the room and slid them aside to reveal what looked to be a fire alarm. She pulled it down and a panel in the wall went up to reveal a flashing pad. She placed her hand on the pad and a secret door opened. She went inside the room and came out a few minutes later.

She was now dressed in black slacks, dress shoes, a dark blue turtleneck, and a white lab coat. Her hair was now dry and pulled back into a messy bun and she was wearing glasses. She also carried a large black leather briefcase as she took one last look at the camera while sealing the room back up. As soon as the room was concealed again she turned back to the regular door and went through it, ending the video.

"What and who the hell was that?" asked Miss Parker, turning to Broots and Sydney.

"I don't know who it was, but look back at the camera's time and date." said Broots.

Miss Parker watched the screen as Broots rewound the video to just before the girl appeared. She looked at the time and date and didn't understand.

"Yeah, they look fine, so?" asked Miss Parker.

"Ok, now look at the time and date after the flash." said Broots, fast forwarding.

He slowed down just as the flash started and in between there seemed to be a small glitch. It was for the smallest millisecond, but the screen went blank and then came back on. You would never be able to see it in real time. However after the small glitch, the time read 4:12 am and the date was 04-19-2024.

"What happened?" asked Miss Parker.

"It's called a temporary temporal shift." said Broots.

"You mean like time travel." said Miss Parker, skeptically.

"Exactly!" said Broots.

"Right, what else did you find?" asked Miss Parker.

"Well, there was video of her going to the main computer lab, but just before she goes in the cameras went off line in there. She comes back out in about ten minutes and then just walks straight out of the front doors. She never set an alarm off or anything." said Broots.

"So what did she do in the lab?" asked Miss Parker.

"I asked around, and found out that each of the people in the room died. I don't know what she did though. I've looked over everything and nothing is missing or has been tampered with." said Broots.

"What the hell is going on?" asked Miss Parker.

"That's not even half of it." said Broots.

"What else did you get?" asked Miss Parker.

"Ok, well there's a video that was sent to Mr. Raines two days ago from a facility somewhere out of the US." said Broots.

"Well, play it." said Miss Parker.

Broots typed a few lines into the computer and brought up another screen, clicking to play the video.

"This is from about three days ago." said Broots.

This time there were people standing all around a small round and raised platform. The lights were dimmed all around except for the light coming off of the platform. One of the men in a lab coat turned to the camera and nodded. The lights on the platform suddenly got much brighter and after a moment the same thing from the storage room started to happen. Soon after a blinding flash of light filled the room there was a body laying in the center of the platform. It was a young and well built man, soaking wet and quite naked as well.

A few of the people in lab coats rushed to him with blankets as he started to stand up. As he pulled a blanket around his waist and one was being draped over his shoulders he started to turn around. He was smiling as he looked up at where ever the camera was and Miss Parker couldn't deny who it was. It was the man from earlier in the hall, the new guy that had been with Raines and Lyle.

"Is that your guy?" asked Sydney.

Miss Parker could only nod as she watched the man being walked out of the room.

"Look at the date on the camera." said Broots, pointing to the time stamp.

Like before, Miss Parker didn't know what to think. The time was 1:07 pm and the date was again 04-19-2024. Her mind was rattling with questions that she didn't think could be answered.

"How…what the hell is going on?" asked Miss Parker, sitting down in the seat that Sydney now offered to her.

"I don't know how they're doing it, but it looks like they have pulled this guy from the future. I'm guessing the same future that the girl came from since it's the exact same date." said Broots.

"Who is he?" asked Miss Parker.

"We don't really know, but it looks like he's called Micah." said Sydney.

"How do you know that?" asked Miss Parker.

"When I saw his picture, I noticed that he looked familiar so I used it to do a search. It looks like this isn't the first time he's been back to the past." said Broots, handing her a folder.

"He was hear when the Centre was being founded." said Sydney.

"Yeah, there's a picture from the local paper back then, and look who's just on the edge of the paper." said Broots, pointing to a small figure.

It was the young woman from the first video. Both he and she looked a bit younger, but they the same people. However, it didn't look like the young man knew the girl was there. She on the other hand was giving him a look that didn't sit well with Miss Parker.

"How is this possible?" asked Miss Parker.

"I don't know, but they did it. The thing that really is confusing is how did the girl do it? The guy had to have this whole set up and all of these people, but the girl just came out of nowhere." said Broots.

"Yeah, that's what is most confusing out of all of this." said Miss Parker, giving him a sarcastic look.

"Maybe we should just focus finding out more about who they are." said Sydney.

"If you get anything else, let me know." said Miss Parker, standing up and shoving the folder with the pictures of the man back at Broots before leaving the sim lab.
