The Incredible Future The Next Generation

Chapter 14

Back at the house, Lewis had finally gotten Carl to calm down a bit. "Relax Carl. It's going to be fine." He slowly patted the golden robot's back. He knew that his last sentence could be wrong. He wasn't entirely sure if they were going to come back. Then again they weren't just any family, they were a family of superheroes and not just any superheroes, one of them was from the Incredibles. One of the greatest family of supers from his time. Also if he knew Wilbur, he wasn't the kind of person to give up easily and he always had a way out of everything. Those thoughts helped him calm down also. Any minute now, they would come through the front door and they will all be safe and sound with Violet unharmed as well.

Just then the door opened and he was hoping it was them and that he was right. Unfortunately when he saw who had come in all the colour had washed from his face. It wasn't them at all.

While they were busy stopping his bomb, he had his coordinates set on the Robinson house. With luck, the young Cornelius boy would still be there and no one would be there to stop him. He landed his pod gently and a fair distance from the house. He was very impatient now and he just barged through the front door and sure enough he found the young Cornelius next to the robot servant of the family. He saw he was scared of him and he grinned evilly.

"What do you want?" Lewis asked.

Jimmy's grin only grew bigger. "To destroy this family once and for all." he answered.

Lewis flinched, but kept his guard. "They're not here. They came out to destroy you themselves. " he said.

"Don't think that I don't know that." he said. " But an easier way to destroy a family is to destroy the cause of it all."

Lewis understood what he meant. He was Wilbur's future father and without him he wouldn't exist. Even Violet's life wouldn't exist. He had saved her from almost dying. "But then what about the future. You could destroy it all too." he said defensively.

"I don't care about this future. All I care about is getting my revenge and destroying all those involved, I don't care if a few innocent lives would be lost. It was those two kids fault if anyone did lose their lives."

It was odd how he still referred to Wilbur and Violet as kids. Both were practically adults now way past the stages of being called a kid. Then again his first encounter with them were when they were kids.

Lewis needed to stop this guy or stall him long enough until someone who could help would come along. His older self had returned home and was trying to see if Wilbur needed help. Who knew where Wilbur and Violet were right now and if Bobby and Helena were with them. All he had was Carl.

He had been listening to the whole conversation. He had to do something. He laid there pretending to be scared so he wouldn't be suspected. He was really trying to privately call Wilbur. He was trying to call his cell. Being a robot had it's advantages. He could call someone and not look like he was even doing it at all and he could make his voice be only heard to the person on the other end of the line.

"Hello." answered Wilbur.

"Oh thank god you're alive." Carl shouted with relief.

"Of course I'm alive. Wilbur Robinson never fails." Carl could here giggles in the background. He recognised them as Bobby and Helena's laughs. He let another sigh of relief out of him. The kids were safe too.

"Carl what's the problem? Unless you're just checking." said Wilbur.

"It's Jimmy! He's here. He wants to destroy Lewis. So get your self here and hurry now!" he screamed. Wilbur had to pull the phone away from his ear because Carl was screaming so loud. "Ok Carl. I'll get there." he said and hung up.

"What's wrong?" asked Bobby.

"it's your grandfather. We need to save him." Wilbur put his foot on the accelerator and the car went zooming. Violet was still passed out in the seat next to him and only made a few slight moves and groans. She and the rest of his family would be fine now, but if he didn't get back to the house sooner then all of this would be lost. He had just gotten Violet back and like before he didn't want anyone in his family to be erased from the world into non-existent.

He hoped Carl was doing his best to keep Lewis safe and would buy them some time to get there.

Lewis had managed to get him to start monologing. He was explaining about how it had something to do with Mr Incredible with how his brother turned out and how it destroyed him. Then getting to the part with Violet. This would definitely buy Wilbur more time to get here. "Please get here soon." he pleaded in his mind. He didn't know what Carl was doing. To him he looked like he was still sobbing from earlier. Was now really the time for that?

They were almost there. He quickly pulled the break and they suddenly stoped causing them to lean forward. Wilbur held his free hand on Violet so she wouldn't hit herself. Wilbur went out of the car and headed over to Violet's door. He carried her out and his kids followed.

"How can we stop Jimmy if mom is still passed out?" asked Bobby.

"We can do this if we work together." was all Wilbur could say.

He was explaining how he was so close to destroying them when suddenly he realised what had just been going on. "You sly dog. You got me monologing." he chuckled. This was the same mistake his brother done. "Well not anymore." he took out a gun and held it in front of Lewis. Ready to trigger. That's when Carl got up and got in front of Lewis protectively. Jimmy fired and it hit the robot instead. The bullet had hit his main circuit board and Carl immediately shut down and fell on the ground. "Carl!" yelled Lewis looking down at the dead robot. This wasn't the first time he had seen Carl like this, but he didn't want him to rescue him.

"Oh what a shame." he laughed. "Looks like there's no one left to save you." he was readying the gun again when he heard the door slam open. "Guess again!" and Jimmy got distracted and felt his gun kicked out of his hand. He held his hand and tried to make it feel better. Whoever hit him had a strong kick.

"Just leave my family alone!" he heard. He looked up to see who his attacker was and it was the third generation of the Robinson family. The one who had helped him achieve half his plan.

"You must be pretty stupid to pull a stunt like that." he said getting up.

"You're the one whose stupid." said Bobby. "You let something that happen years ago affect you so much that you let it run and ruin your life. It wasn't even your fault. This was your brother's problem. I know you lost him and I respect that you cared for him, but revenge isn't the answer. Don't let that get in the way of your life. Let go of the past and Keep Moving Forward."

He remembered receiving a similar lecture about that from the boys father years ago. He had hated that motto and that drove him even more angrier to hear it. This future world relied too much on that stinking motto and the plus side to destroying the younger Cornelius was that he could put an end to it all. "I never had time to keep moving forward. Until I avenge my brother I won't keep moving forward." he said.

He placed Violet down safely in the hallway. "Keep an eye on mommy." he said to Helena. His daughter nodded and stayed with Violet while he went to go after Bobby. He had run past him when getting to the house and went ahead of them. He came into the room to see a broken Carl, Lewis, Bobby and Jimmy.

"I see we have all the men in the family. Women to weak to fight." he teased.

"She wouldn't have been if it wasn't for your bomb." Wilbur shot at him.

"Blame her father for that."

"That's it? You want to destroy them because of something her father did." said Lewis. "You just want them gone because her father did something that none of these people were responsible."

"it use to be like that, but after him." he pointed to Wilbur. "and his wife stopped me many years ago it ruined my life and everything I ever did was left destroyed and forgotten. So it's moved a little from her father." he explained.

This guy really didn't know how to let go.

"I've had it with you! Just leave the rest of my family alone and take me instead." said Wilbur with a fit of fury. "if you want to take your anger out on someone take it on me." he didn't think Jimmy would take him, but he didn't want him hurting his family either.

"Yeah. I think it'll be easier to destroy him." He looked over to Lewis. "That way I get rid of all of you at once and this world as well." he made a plunge for his gun but a field went around it and stung him. He drew his hand back and watch it float away from him. Wilbur recognised it as one of Violet's force fields and turned around to see her leaning against the wall. She looked exhausted and tired. That didn't seem to stop her from bringing the gun towards her. "I'm not letting anyone here get hurt or give themselves up." she talked with a few breathes in after every word. She let the gun fall down in front of her. Helena was just peaking out from behind her.

"Don't think I don't have a back up." said Jimmy and he pulled out a smaller gun from his pocket. "it's only strong enough to kill one and I only have on target here." he pointed it towards Lewis. "The whole family for the price of one." he grinned. He pulled the trigger and they all tried to get in front of it. The bullet was moving too fast for Violet to put a force field up and Bobby was ready to make a time travel trip to stop this from happening.

She wasn't going to hide behind her mother's skirt any longer. This man kept trying to tear her family apart and she wanted him to go away so desperately. Away from her home, away from her family and away from here. She saw the gun and when he pointed it to the other boy she closed her eyes and hoped that none of this was happening and that it was all just a really bad nightmare.

Lewis had his eyes closed and waited for the bullet to hit him. He quickly opened his eyes and saw the bullet was just millimetres from his face. It was standing there in mid air frozen. Everyone else in the room could see it. They were all shocked.

"What! That isn't meant to happen." said Jimmy. He tried to make a move for it, but his feet seemed to be glued onto the floor. "Why aren't I moving?" he said. Instead of his usual threatening voice he sounded scared and worried. None of them knew what was going on or what the cause of all this was.

Jimmy unable to move from his spot kept struggling. Even moving an inch would be an achievement. He then started to feel a soft breeze and light tingle on him. He was glowing a very bright light. What was happening to him. He looked up and his bullet disappeared into dust and headed towards him. The gun in his hand did the same. He then started glowing brighter and brighter. He looked around the room and everyone was shielding their eyes. He then turned to the little girl and saw her eyes were glowing the same white he was. She was the source of all this.

Everyone could see that Jimmy was getting brighter and brighter to the point where they all had to shut their eyes and cover them. They could also feel a strong wind inside the house. It wasn't sure how long they had their eyes close, but soon through their eyelids they saw it began to dim down and the wind had stopped. In the spot where Jimmy had been it was empty. He had vanished, without a trace. Was he gone for good? Or was he still out there?

She didn't know what had just happened, but she knew she had something to do with it. She had felt so powerful and she had felt so in control. She didn't feel weak or tired. Jimmy was in a place where he couldn't hurt her family or anyone anymore. He would be left there all alone, wherever he was. The good thing was that he was gone and her family would all be safe and sound again. She let a smile come to her face.

Violet noticed her daughter smile and realised what had just happen. She smiled too as she knew that her daughter's love for her family was stronger than Jimmy's hate for them. It was all over. Everyone else in the room just looked confused, but were also happy that the threat was gone and they could continue living their lives.

Lewis knew that now that Jimmy was gone it was time for him to return to his own time. He wished he could stay longer, but if he stayed then there wouldn't be anything left here.
