The Incredible Future The Next Generation
Chapter 1

He looked at the ceiling of his bedroom. Most people found this as a waste of time, but he wasn't most people, you could in fact say that he wasn't even normal. He was not like the other kids at his school, they all can live their lives without worry and not have their parents worry about them every second of the day. He could never waste time, no. he had this power that only the other kids dreamed about. He had the ability to time travel. It wasn't a bad thing to have, but sometimes it was. There were times he could risk altering the time stream and his very existence. He wasn't even allowed to use his powers. His parents would let him only if it was emergency. Of all the super powers in the world, he had to have the one you couldn't really have fun with. His mother could turn invisible, his 'uncle' Chip could teleport, everyone (well almost everyone) in his mother's side had powers that didn't risk anyone's existence.
He turned to his side and saw his reflection in the mirror. There was nothing much to see, except himself. Robert Lewis Robinson or better known as just Bobby. He looked liked a younger version of his father, except for his eyes. Instead of being hazel they were blue, ocean blue like his mother's. he got up and suddenly "OUCH!" he had just felt a hard pinch on the back of his neck. He touched his neck and felt nothing. It was probably him imagining things, but it hurt.
"Bobby, will you please play with me."
It was his little sister, Helena. She didn't have super powers like him. She was a normal little girl. But she was very annoying. He always thought that that was her super power, being annoying. She always would annoy him until he finally did what she wanted. She had short black hair that just touched her shoulders and it was pushed back by a headband. She was just like a younger version of their mom, but like him the eyes were different. They were hazel like their dad's.
"No." he answered.
Oh pretty, pretty, pretty…" she started.
Here we go. Her powers were beginning to take action. If she has to, she will do like a million pretties until she finally gets what she wants.
"Ok, Ok Fine I'll play with you." he snapped.
"Pretty, Pret… Please." she stopped.
He had lost the battle. He always lost anyway. He just couldn't take it, at least if he said yes she would be quiet for a while.
"What do you want to play?" he asked.
His little sister stood there thinking. It was a while before she answered him.
"Hide and seek!" she jumped.
He sighed and rolled his eyes, at least it wasn't dress up or dolls.
"Fine I'll count."
"Ok." said his little sister as she ran out the door.
He sat on his bed and thought thank goodness I time travel. He would just have a little rest before he would continue to search for his sister, he could just time travel back to this second and it would seem that he had never taken a rest.
He laid back on his bed and he suddenly felt a tingle in his body.
"Robert Lewis Robinson!"
He got up startled. What did he do? It was his mother who had called him. He ran downstairs into the living room, where he found his mom and Helena crying on her mother's shoulder. Something felt weird and it wasn't good.
"how could you leave your sister outside like that." she yelled.
"I didn't. we were playing hide and seek." he said.
"She has been waiting outside for two hours and it is already dark."
Bobby looked outside it was dark. That couldn't be right it was still kind of bright when he last checked and that was not to long ago. He looked at the time and it too was different. It had said 5:30 when he last saw it and now it said that it was almost &:30. He then remembered the tingle. He only felt that when he time travelled, but he had no intention of time travelling at the time. He was going to do that later or a while ago if so it seems. Why did his powers do that? He had full control of them. Let it go, its probably nothing to worry about.
"I ahhh… must have dozed off, I was feeling a little tired." he lied.
Violet looked at her son. It was wet where Helena had been crying. At least he didn't use his powers. She sighed. "Fine, but next time this happens I won't go so easy on you." she said sternly.
He went back upstairs and her attention returned on her crying daughter.
"Shh, it's okay sweetie." she said rocking her.
After a couple minutes Helena had fallen sleep. She slowly started going up the stairs.
"C.A.R.L.!" she called softly.
"yes miss." he said.
"I'm going to take Helena upstairs, do you think you can mange on your own?" she asked.
The robot came out and replied "Of course I can. After all it is my duty to serve the Robinsons."
Violet laughed and gently walked up the stairs to Helena's bedroom. She laid her on the bed and kissed her forehead.
"Good night darling." she whispered.
She returned downstairs and found that C.A.R.L. had already finished setting everything up.
It was only a few minutes later when Wilbur came home. She went up to him and did the usual, kiss him and ask him how work was. He usually replied that it was tiring.
