Chapter 4
A/N- Hey, I'm back. Anyway, I am officially announcing that I will begin a new Pair of Kings story soon. Well, here's the next chapter.
Disclaimer- I don't own Pair of Kings.
I looked shocked. Well, I wasn't the one who was shocked, it was young me who was shocked. So I guess I was the one who was shocked, in a way. "Time travel is real?" young me asked. "Yeah. Lanny invented it." "This is so cool! I gotta go tell Boomer!" young me yelled as he started to run off.
I grabbed him by the arm and said, "I know this will be hard for you, but you can't tell Boomer, or anyone, about time travel." "Why not?" "I came back on a specific mission. You and you alone need to know my true identity."
Young me looked at me suspiciously. "How do I know that you're really me from the future? I mean, you don't have any proof, and you haven't even told me your mission." "I can tell you about it. But not here. Follow me." I lead young me to the dungeons. There was a secret passage there that would allow us to leave the castle without anyone knowing.
We went out into the jungle and uncovered the time machine. "Whoa. This is so cool," Brady said, "if it works." "Of course it works. Now let's get back to the castle." "No! We're going to test this out. So I say it. So let it be done." I remember when I used to say that. Those were good times. Stupid times, but good times.
Young me climbed into the machine, and I followed. "Let's go to the future so I can see how awesome I become," Brady said excitedly. "Actually, in the future we are hated by the islanders," I said. "I don't believe you." "Then I'll show you." I typed the date I left from into the time machine.
Minutes later we were back in Lanny's lab. I climbed out first and looked around. Lanny was sitting at a table nearby. "How long was I gone?" "About five minutes," he responded. "Why did you come back so quick?" Lanny asked. "I needed some convincing." With that I climbed out and the other me followed.
"Whoa. Cousin Lanny actually grew taller," Brady said in disbelief. It was true. Lanny had grown quite a few inches since we first met. "And I thought I was done with short jokes," Lanny shot back. That reminds me, "Lanny, did you ever try to kill me? Or Boomer? And maybe Boz?" "Umm," Lanny replied uncomfortably, "Yeah. Sorta. Maybe." I know I should probably be angry at Lanny, but that was a long time ago, and like I said Lanny is my best friend.
"Whatever. Just explain to younger me what's going on." "I sent Brady back in time to prevent the island of Kinkow from falling apart. I have figured out that if your relationship with Mikayla had occurred earlier it would have changed the fate of the island for the better," Lanny explained.
Young me looked shocked. "I have a relationship with Mikayla?" he yelled. "Yeah. I'm married to Mikayla." "I marry Mikayla? This is the best news I have ever heard!" "Stay focused," I told him. "If this mission fails our brothers die." "We only have one brother, unless you're hiding something," young me said.
I have said to much. "I'll tell you about our other brother later. Back into the time machine," I said as I pushed the other me into the machine. I got in and said, "Ready to go Lanny. I typed the date into the machine and we were off.
A/N- This will probably be the last time I post until the week after next. Next week I am going to camp and probably won't have an Internet signal. Sorry.
