The Incredible Future The Next Generation

Chapter 15

He had awaken. He wasn't sure how long he had been out cold. The last thing he remember was the strong winds and bright light and the little girl. Was he dead? He didn't feel dead, he felt very much alive. He examined the area he was in. It was a huge white space that seemed to go for miles and miles. Mostly it was a great big nothing. He stretched an arm out to see if he was near any wall. Nothing.

The girl had sent him to some place with no way out. He shook his head. That was silly. Surely if there was a way in, there had to be a way out. He then felt another breeze. This time it was softer. The white room he was in had transformed back into the Robinson living room. Everything and everyone seem to be frozen. All had a worried expression on their faces. They were all looking at him. Why would they be worried for him? He was the one who tried to kill them. He then looked in front of him and saw his own body. A cold chill made the hairs on the back of his neck stand. He saw a strong hatred in his eyes and the gun was being pointed at him. He realised he was in the body of the young Cornelius. This was the moment before everything had stopped, before he ended up in that endless space. This time however, nothing was happening. The bullet was slowly heading towards him and no one was stopping it. As the bullet came closer he saw how his hatred had led him to this. He closed his eyes and waited for the bullet to pierce through him. The end was to come.


They were all saying their final good byes. Lewis felt sad to be leaving his future family again, but if he didn't go now than he wouldn't have a family to get look forward to. He was glad that Carl was better now. Who knew that Bobby could reverse time before someone died. After that mysterious source earlier he had came over to Carl and at his touch he reversed the time on Carl to before he was shot. They learnt it was called reversed healing. A power that allowed someone to heal another as if it had never happened. Carl had no memory of being shot, in fact he was actually quite confused. He said the last thing he remembered was Jimmy about to shoot. They had to explain to him what happened, he slowly got it. More surprising was that Bobby didn't know he even had the skills.

"I don't know if I can take much more of these powers developing." said Wilbur placing a hand on his forehead and dropping on the couch.

Violet giggled and took a seat next to him. "I thought you knew what you signed up for when you decided to marry me."

"But two new powers in one day? Not to mention almost being killed by a homicidal maniac. That's enough for me in one day." he said.

"It's the life of a super. You choose to be with one and your life becomes all about homicidal maniacs and powers." Violet smiled.

"And I haven't regretted making that decision. Even for a second." he smiled back at her. "You made my life an even greater adventure than it was before I met you."


The way he looked at her showed how much he cared and how much he loved her. Lewis wondered when he will be able to look at Franny like that. He was still on the cute little crush stage with her.

"Wilbur." said Violet biting her lip.

"Hmm?" he said grabbing her hand.

"I…"

"Yeah?" he was starting to get very curious. "Don't tell me you're trying to ruin the good mood. If it's bad news can't it wait till later."

Violet laughed slightly. "Come on Wil you know me better than that. I never give bad news at good times."

"If it isn't bad news than what do you want to tell me?"

"The trip to the doctor earlier…."

"What about it?" if he could name the things Violet was good at, creating suspense would definitely be on the list. Everyone else in the room was also dying to know what she had to say. They all had the look that said "spit it out already!"

"Before Bobby and I left. The doctor had told me something.

"Vi just tell me already." Wilbur was now so desperate for her to say it to him already.

Violet giggled and moved over to his ear. He could hear her breathing and could tell she was smiling.

Everybody else sighed disappointedly. They couldn't hear her if she whispered it to him. If only they had super hearing. The only gifts they had were time travelling and wishful thinking. It was the best name to call Helena's powers, since every time she had used it she had something she like become reality. The girl wanted her dolls to come to life and she managed to make them levitate and move on their own, she even wanted to know the whereabouts of Bobby and Violet and she received a vision of what was happening and where they were. There was even the case of her wanting Jimmy to leave her family alone and sending him to some other dimension or so, although Violet was the only one who knew about it.

Wilbur soon had the same smile Violet had on her face. "You're not kidding?"

Violet shook her head, still smiling. This was the best news anyone could hear after a day like today, it was actually the kind of news anyone would want to hear.

"Keep going. It's not like we're here." said Bobby sarcastically.

Wilbur and Violet turned to them and blinked. They had forgotten they were watching.

"Oh sorry." Violet said sheepishly.

"Is this the private kind of news or something you can share with us all?" asked Carl.

Wilbur cleared his throat. "That is an excellent question."

A roll of eyes came from everyone in the room when he said his usual catch phrase. "And the excellent answer is…"

"How would you all feel about a new edition to the Robinson family?" said Violet.

A shock expression came across their faces, except Helena who didn't understand what was happening. "Huh?" she said confused.

"It means we get a new baby brother or sister." said Bobby.

It took a few seconds before Helena said something else. "We're gonna get a sister?" she said smiling.

"it could be a boy." said Bobby.

"I say girl."

"Boy."

"Girl!"

"Boy!"

"ok you two. We'll find out when the time comes. I'm not going to tolerate 8-9 months of you arguing about your new sibling." said Carl stopping them out of annoyance.

Everybody else laughed. "But I think it's time for someone to go." said Wilbur.

Lewis nodded and turned to Bobby. "Since I know I have full control of my powers again than sending him back will be a piece of cake."

"Ok whenever you're ready." said Lewis.

"No time trips." said Wilbur and Violet in unison to Bobby.

"I think I had enough time travelling for one day." he said. "I've never used it so much and discovering a new power wears me out."

Wilbur looked over to Violet. "It can happen." she shrugged.

"let's go." said Bobby and Lewis came to stand next to him. Bobby held out his fist in front of him and Lewis did the same and fist bumped him. Soon they were back to before it all started. Back at Joyce Williams. He was standing beside his bag that he left earlier. "When are we?" he asked looking at Bobby.

"2007. That's where I needed to go. This is unusual." he said.

"What is?"

"That we ended up here. Usually my powers take me to the same place I'm standing in. This time it took me back to the place and time I was thinking of."

"I guess reversing deaths isn't the only thing you can do now."

"Yeah. Well you better get going."

"Ok. See you around." said Lewis and he picked up his bag and headed for the school bus. Bobby watched him get in and could see that he took a seat next to a pigtailed hair girl. She look seemingly familiar to him, like he'd seen her somewhere before. He didn't have time to figure out who she was and needed to head back home. He arrived back at home where his family were waiting. "That was fast." said his dad. "barely a second."

"I can make it look like I never even left." he said holding his hands up.

Violet was holding Helena and Wilbur was beside them. Bobby ran into his dad and hugged them all. "I'm glad we're all together again." he said. The whole family then hugged each other. Family was the most important thing to them. From Violet and Wilbur's side of the family. Family was the greatest adventure and it wasn't worth missing.

The End


AN: And I managed to finish this before I resume school tomorrow. Took me long enough. I really hope you enjoyed it and please give me reviews about it. I did originally plan to have the start of the chapter around the end, but I prefer happier endings than sad. I have more Willet story ideas in my head and I don't know if I'll ever get to posting them up.
