Pico:yeah lets eat!*Pico began to eat like he was starving for weaks as he ate half of his food already.this made Violet giggle*
DP:Violet is going to make her future partner happy someday.especially with these skills.)
Pico:mmm~ so good…*Zero calmly ate his food*
Zero:well the only way her food could taste horrible is if she was replaced with a evil copy or something.
Violet:*Violet smiled and blush*th-thank you everyone!
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:there's always room for two sweetie.
Ray:*Ray took off her towel and entered the nice hot water*mmm~ so your training with Bardock has definitely improved this past week.
Brenda:i guess…and William has been a big help with that too.helping me unlock my abilities.*Ray then grabbed soap and started to scrub Brendas body making her flinch from the sensitive touch*
Ray:i'm just happy that you found a happy balance between training and relaxing.*she then hugged her making Brenda smile and blush*i was honestly worried at first that Bardock would overwhelm you but i was wrong.*she then kissed her on the cheek*
Brenda:gck! to be fair i have been giving my all.
Ray:and then some.Margarine has been teaching me how to sense energy so that i can follow your movements.*she then smiled at Brenda*
Brenda:that's wonderful! i guess that means you're still determined to fight along side me?
Ray:that's right.*she then kissed her a few times on the neck making Brenda smile while fighting the urge to make any noise*

Mia:oh, hon I can't wait for your first major dish there. We'll all come down to eat.
Violet:you mean it?
Nene:yeah we can definitely do that.
Violet:yay*hugs each one of them*
BP:heh heh.
Jasmine:begging your pardon master, but you have a message.
DP:how important is it?
Jasmine:not very, but it is from your mother.
BP:hmm…
*in another dimension*
Ray:Honestly all this hard work and effort*kisses her again* can make someone tense. How about we let off some steam together*begins to kiss her passionately and backs a step away letting brenda get an eye of her with a smile on her face and wag of her tail*
Pico:play the message.*a video screen of Sarah appeared*
Sarah:Pico if you're not busy can you please come over to my home dear? it's nothing urgent but id like to have a chat.*the screen vanished*
Violet:technology…
Pico:*Pico devour the rest of his meal and got up.i'll be back in a bit.
Mia:ok Pico.please say hi to Sarah for me.
Pico:will do!*not even a second later he ran out the door in mach 1 speed leaving a dust trail.a second later he was at his parents place*
DP:hmm if it's not urgent then i guess she doesn't need our help healing…
BP:did we forget our birthday or something?*he then opened the door*
*in the other dimension Brenda looked at rays tail and smiled*
Brenda:you are just to cute.*she then wrapped her arms around Ray as they continue to kiss.a few minutes later Margarine sees Ray not only was just wearing one of Brendas shirts but also happily humming a tune while Brenda had a goofy smile on her face*
Margarine:oh my…
Sarah:hello honey!*hugs him*
BP:hi mom, what's going on? You sent a message?
Sarah:oh yes. I wanted to bring you over and tell you the news.
DP:news?
Sarah:mhm. Cole and I well, we're going out in the field for one last mission.
BP:w-what? Mom that's…that's silly you haven't been an active agent in…actually I don't know how long, but I presume its as long as dad.
Sarah:I still haven't lost a step hon.
DP:really now?
Sarah:yes*now holding his hoodie*
BP:*looks to see it removed*when did you-
Sarah:I might be a healer hon, but I also had to learn how to get near your father to heal him when he was on missions.*hands it back*
DP:*puts the hoodie back on* alright. So then this was just a heads up to make sure I know what's going on. What's the mission?
Sarah:well, a few of have been asked to investigate a company known as Time Tec. Specifically one of their labs.
BP:(oh jeez. Should we…try to get on that mission and improve thier chances?)
DP:(I want to say they'll be fine. Mom and dad haven't lost a step, but they haven't been in actual field work for some time…)
*In another Dimension*
Margerine:you two have fun?
Ray:yep!*kisses brenda again*
Margerine:that's good, I made you guys something*puts down a platter of meat* Apollyn here aided me in the seasonings.
Apollyn:oh, it was nothing*scratches the back of her head*
Pico:(…i want to help but i also don't want to unintentionally insult moms skills by doing so…damnit.plus it's Time Tec again and we did technically stop a small group.)*Sarah looked at Picos troubled expression and smiled as she sat at Picos level and hugged him*
Sarah:i know that expression you did the same thing when you were small.aww honey….your father and i will be fine.
Pico:if you say so…good luck mom.
Sarah:thank you honey.i promise i'll return with a few gifts for your children ok? bye dear.*as Pico walked to his door he immediately made a left turn as he looked serious*
DP:Pico?
Pico:i made up my mind.*he summoned a sniper rifle with a silencer*we're tailing mom and dad tonight.and if 1 of them lands 1 fatal wound on my mother i'm going for the headshot.
BP:Pico we left that side of us behind.
Pico:i don't care! those Time Tec guys must have already got info on who in Zot took their small operation down so i'm not risking it you hear me? we're tailing mom and dad tonight!
Merlin:are you sure that's wise dear?*she appeared in front of them showing concern*
Pico:Merlin? of course not.but i can't risk it…their mission involves Time Tec…what if something bad happens when i could of stopped it? i can't take that chance.
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:Apollyn…*Apollyn blushed some more*
Apollyn:w-why are you smiling at me like that? please just try some.
Brenda:*as Brenda tried it her eyes sparkled while looking at Apollyn in awe*amazing….*Ray then tried it*
Ray:thank you both so much.
Margarine:it's nothing dear.*Brenda finished her plate in seconds while blushing from the taste of the food*
Brenda:mmm i haven't had a meal this good in weeks.
*Apollyn smiled as she looked down*
Apollyn:oh Brenton…
Merlin:alright, but what about them?*reveals his future kids who were cloaked by a spell*
Juno:wh-hey!
Walter:Not cool Miss Merlin!
BP:wh-kids?what are you doing?
Juno:we were going to the lab to make something, but when we heard Time Tec, I realized what day it is and well.
Walter:this is the day where bad things begin for you and trickle down to us when we get older.
DP:…alright you two, what happens?
Juno:we can't tell you. It'll mess up the future and…
Walter:what Juno is saying is we may be risking our existence as you know us if we tell you anything.
Merlin:Then I'll tell him. I've already been to the future and past.
BP:alright!*takes a breather* so before I consider running off with gun in hand, let's start with present knowledge. What is Time Tec?
Juno:as silly as it sounds, dad. Its a beauty company.
DP:…seriously?
Walter:their motto is "Take time to look good longer".
BP:of course I take it the beauty is only surface deep.
Juno:technically yes, right now as you have seen they have been experimenting with finding a way to reverse time in people to make them live longer.
DP:cause people would pay to sit around and do nothing and see it all. Right Makes sense.
Walter:the experiment a few weeks ago was to see if they could isolate a section to have time reverse around it.
BP:but there was a leak, and thankfully minimal damage with no one being too hurt.
Merlin:right, but that doesn't stop them.
Juno:nope. They try something similar this time and by accident create a creature that goes on a rampage for almost a decade.its like a big purple cloud of stars made into the shape of man, and feeds off of time that people have been alive.
DP:so how is it stopped?
Juno:*looks to Merlin and look away, her twin doing the same thing.*…tell him.
Merlin:you sent Juno to kill it on her 8th birthday.
BP:I what?!
DP:Wow…future us is a jerk. Juno…I…I don't even know what to say.
Walter:its not all your fault really. You got hurt by the beast trying to save grandma and grandpa, the hit was enough to start reversing your clock, and the pills you were taking to stay you kind of clouded your judgement. Add the fact you were only as old as we were, and you have a mix for disaster. You weren't fixed until Michael cured you 8 years after it died and the pills stopped being useful.
Juno:don't justify it! I had to wear his mechanical arm for years! I wasn't allowed to grow mine back till I was of "safe age". *sighs* in any case, it can be killed.*hands him a special magazine* these bullets are lined with something that can disrupt its field that allows it to reverse damage. I don't know what exactly, but it was made by Doc so it has to be potent.
Merlin:Exposition aside, we all better get over there to stop this thing*makes a portal* We've babbled on long enough.
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:Im so glad you like it! So…um, Bren…I know you've been training hard, but m-maybe we can spend some t-time together?
Pico:*Pico unclipped his rifle and put the special clip in*thanks everyone.*they then walked through the portal as Picos ears perked up*they're close…*he then looked at Cole and Sarah through his scope*
Cole:we're close.*he then smiled*it's good to be out on the field again don't you think?
Sarah:you mean how i usually had to pull you out of the danger?
Cole:i have no idea what your talking about.*as they reached the base something felt off as a Mobian Echidna with a scar on his eye wearing a black coat casually walked up to them*
???:ah right on que the duo that once broke the law over as something as trifle as love.
Cole:grr…you.
Sarah:a trap?
???:of course! we are a organization built in the future after all.now!*he flicked his finger making a soldier walk up and salute*
Soldier:sir!
???:bring out our…unique friend.
Soldier:but sir if any of us touch it we'll-
???:don't ruin the surprise and do what i say!!*as the soldier ran the menacing figure smirked*your family will be a thorn in our side for decades Cole. did you know that? and we can't have our operation be terminated by a old mage and his cleric wife now could we? so i figured we'd first let our big friend kill you and then send a assassin to kill your son.quite the ironic death no? a assassin versus a assassin sounds like a interesting battle.
Pico:standing by…get ready for the perfect shot.if it takes more than one bullet to take it down then prepare to teleport somewhere else and try again.
BP/DP:roger!*Pico then took a deep breath as Merlin watched Pico store mana in his rifle*
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:*Brenda smiled as she held Apollyns hand*that sounds like a wonderful idea.*Apollyn smiled and blushed until-*in fact we can do whatever you want my treat.
Apollyn:th-thank you Brenton.*Brenda then kissed Apollyn on the cheek as the dragon of space opened a portal*
Dragon of space:if you two want alone time i do recommend taking this portal to Earth.
Cole:just answer me this, why a beauty company? Why do you want to live forever?
???:hah! well, I'll let you in on something. I was inspired by both of you. You broke the rules of love and made a child despite species difference. So that got me thinking what rules can I break? Then I thought, death. So many people see it as a disease and so many can be easily convinced that it is one. So, why not profit off of that?
Sarah:do you think its a disease?
???:oh of course I don't, but I do get to live forever I can run things long term We aren't where we want to be yet, too many setbacks and going too big. That's what I learned. We need to start smaller with creams and lotions and build ourselves back up with the correct tools. Then none of you Aura guardians can stop us.
Cole:I won't lie you are redicilous.
Solider:*now smaller*Run! its loose! its loose!*trips and squirms and runs away and hides*
???:what?*turns around to see the big cloudy monster*
Monster:Rooooooooo!*with a movement of its claws it stabs to the poor echidna yet no blood from his wounds*
???:*Starts to change*h-help me…*his scar begins to vanish along with any sign of age on his face his body begins to shrink a little as his voice gets higher*P-please I don't want to become this things meal or or or.*Starts to cry*
Sarah:well we better get to work.*pulls out her crossbow*
Cole: "Old friend" you never learned your lesson, not when we first met, not when you sent us to that bridge, and not now. However, despite everything, from trying to kill me, to threaten my son, I will help you. *readies an aura sphere* After that you will see justice upheld by the law.
???:th-thank you!*scurries out of part of his suit getting away leaving a trail of tears behind him*
Sarah:are we going to let him get away?
Cole:I had Zot have them patrol the area outside of here. He'll run into them if we don't catch him first. He better pray we do though. *Throws a blast and sees it does nothing* That's new.*fires a bigger one and staggers it, yet still no damage*
Monster:*lets out a roar and the cloud from its body starts to spread*
Sarah:hon, hold your breath and get back*starts to get a distance*of this things claws can shred years off of you, and a touch could too, I don't even want to imagine what gas can do.
Cole:way ahead of ya*sets up several magical obstacles* is it just me or is that cloud spreading faster?*hears his traps go off in rapid succession*What, is this thing immune to magic as well?
Sarah:Just how thick is thing's skin?*fires a grappling hook and reels her and Cole up onto the building* There, we have some ground now. We need a plan.
Cole:we can try and blow up the facility. However I don't know how many people are still alive after that thing got loose and how young they are. The aftermath would leave a horrible taste in my mouth and I don't think our son could ever let us around the grand kids again.
Monster:Roooo!*jumps up onto the opposite side, the cloud now coming off the building*
Cole:*hiding*its a good thing this thing isn't smart enough to track us.
Sarah:or maybe it doesn't have a way yet. Wait, if a small amount of magic Aura can't hurt it, and a big one can stagger it, Cole, how fast and powerful can you make that blast?
Cole:I would need a few minutes.
Sarah:then start charging! I'll keep an eye out and if need be off your back.
Cole:*kisses her*I love you
Sarah:I love you too.
BP:tch. its getting hard to see that thing.
DP:we're going to have to take a shot soon. it doesn't look like they're damaging it.
BP:but what if it comes over here? This thing is time based right? it could accelerate itself to where we are and make that thing Juno said happen…wait, if we kill this thing what will happen? will that gas cloud spread indefinitely?
DP:we can worry consequences later! that's our parents. We just need a clean shot on this thing and to get it away from them.
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:oh. Th-thank you.*takes his hand*
Ray:don't worry we'll be here when you get back!
Space Dragon:just let me know when you want to come back. I'll open another portal.
Pico:*Pico who thought things through smirked*we got this guys.just gotta wait for that right opportunity and…*the gas based purple with star pattern creature got in Picos position*fire!*bang! a quiet shot knicked the monster on the shoulder pulsing its body with mana and energy as it moved slowly towards Pico*
DP:good job.by the time it'll reach us it'll be a regular monster.
*Pico not wanting to kill the creature smirked*
Pico:lets move.*they then ran back to Zot at mach 1 speed.meanwhile*
Cole:where did it go?
Sarah:over there!…it looks harmless.
Cole:don't be fooled by it.i'll knock it out with this spell and let HQ contain it.who knows they might even have a cure.
Sarah:it's a shame though isn't it?*Cole knocks it out while it wasn't looking*
Cole:what is?
Sarah:i could use a few less wrinkles.*she then giggled*
Cole:nonsense you are as beautiful as the day i met you.
Sarah:oh Cole…*she then hugged him.an hour later they returned to Zot*
*in the other dimension Brenda smiled as they walked through the portal appearing at West City*
Apollyn:what shall we do first?
Brenda:i was thinking a nice candlelight dinner with some music and fireworks followed by a night of cuddling and maybe some fun activities such as swimming?
Apollyn:Bren…*she smiled and blushed making Brenda affectionately kiss Apollyns hand*
Brenda:tonight you'll be my queen.so don't worry about anything except enjoying the day.*she the wrapped her arms around Apollyns waist in a soft hug*
Apollyn:o-ok.*Brenda then kissed Apollyn before walking her to a fancy restaurant*it looks so expensive.
Brenda:it is…but price is nothing remember?
Apollyn:i suppose it's a good thing you are rich.how did you get rich by the way?
Brenda:its a funny story you'll love it.*she winked at her*
*they then got both of their seats and orders*
Brenda:-and so Mr.Money rewarded me 889 million zennie like it was chump change.
Apollyn:oh my! that IS quite the reward for helping defeat this Bojack person.and this "Zangya" ran away?
Brenda:yeah.i assumed she's on another planet either as a gang member or a thief.
Sarah:I can't wait to tell Pico!
Cole:we can tell him how it went together after all it was a team effort.*knocks on the door*
BP:Mom, dad! what a suprise!Come on in. Use your quiet voices though we just got all the twins to sleep.
Sarah:of course.*sits down*
DP:so, how did the mission go?
Cole: it was interesting. We infiltrated Time Tec and one of my old enemies Rex Malstron was manning the helm.
Sarah:he was a business man who always pushed too far. To a point where the aura guardians and his "employment" would always collide. The man wanted to be on top.
Cole:This time though, he got to high and fell down.
BP:what do you mean?
Sarah:well he had this creature that looked to be made out of something and would make whatever was in close proximity to it younger and the creature stronger. Poor Rex got stabbed by it.
Cole:the wound was so bad its said his clock is still going backwards after being clawed by it.
DP:that's kind of scary.
Cole:well thankfully he got caught and Zot is looking into his case. He's on emergency watch on the medical ward and…hopefully after he's cured will face jail time.
BP: well, what about the monster?
Sarah:that's the confusing part. It was immune to my crossbow and all of Cole's spells. Even, his Aura to an extent.
Cole:we were going to pull out all the stops to beat it, but something caught its attention and it toppled over.
DP:it must of been an unstable creature.
Sarah:that's what we thought too. However, they found a bullet in it.
BP:oh?
Cole:weapons expert says that its unlike anything he's seen. its almost as if its from the future.
DP:*starts to sweat*(they're on to us.)
BP:(be cool, we'll get through this)
DP:(we're not going to lie to them are we? They'll know! They have senses about that.)
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:well so long as she can't cause anymore trouble. So,where did you want to go swimming?
Waiter:your order has arrived*brings out 2 big things of chicken*
Pico:*Pico sighed as he made up his mind*i have to be honest with you two…Time Tec aren't the only one's with future info.
Sarah:what are you talking about dear?*Pico summoned his sniper and unclipped a glowing cartridge*
Pico:two people from the future warned me about that monsters ability and gave me this ammo built by Doc from the future.i probably shouldn't of interfered but if i didn't you would…i would…
Sarah:aww honey.*she then hugged him as Alice watched the family with a smile*
Alice:(aww)
*in the other dimension Brenda decided that they should go to the beach as the two wore bikini's and sat on a towel*
Brenda:mmm i'm still so full from all that chicken.i don't know if i can swim just yet
Apollyn:that's ok as long as i get to spend my time with you.*she then hugged the laid-back vixen who kissed Apollyn immediately*after our date do you wanna do anything…special?
*she smiled as she traced Brendas small abs*
Brenda:sure! but if i'm honest the only special thing to me is the people i care about so….
Apollyn:oh Bren.*she then hugged her*
Sarah:hon, you have every reason to worry, but we aren't defenseless.
BP:*smiles*I know.
Cole:besides, if we did get in trouble I can always teleport us back.
*looks to ailce*you want in on this hug?
Alice:I…couldn't…
Cole:come now, your family. Hug your foxy husband and his parents.
Alice:alright.*smiles and joins in on the hug*
Sarah:So will it be you or Ruby who gives us our next set of grandkids?
DP:Mom!*making his and Alice's face red*
Cole:well son, where do you expect them to come from son, outta you?
BP:D-dad!
Sarah:shh the babies are asleep.
Cole:hm. Silly me
Alice:Mr and Mrs stone*her face redder than the fur on Pico*um, do you two want anything tonight?
Sarah:Nothing too exciting, I think we've had all the excitement we've had for awhile till they ask us to go on another mission.
Cole:till then we have each other.*kisses his wife*
Alice:(so cute together.)How about cocca?
Sarah:of course dear go right ahead.
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:well how about when we swim we*whispers in the vixens ear making her blush* …of course we could also wait til later tonight when no one is around us.
Pico:*Pico smiled at Alice as she walked into the kitchen staring at her butt*besides changing six diapers is quite enough for now.
Cole:very true my boy.*Alice walked back with cups of coco as she heard what Pico said*
Alice:there you go.(for now?) *she smiled and blushed at the idea.(oh my.)
Sarah:mmm thank you dear.*Alice then picked up Pico and hugged him*
Alice:did you need anything dear?
Pico:n-no i'm good.*a few minutes later they were sitting down in the living room until the 3 women walked out with their twins.*
Cole:ah hello my precious grand children.*he then hugged Walter and Juno making Mia giggle*
Mia:always a pleasure to see you Cole.*Justin and Juliana looked at their grandpa with curiosity while Yang and Michael hugged Sarah*
Sarah:such sweet children.
*suddenly-*
Jill:Pico!*she ran up to her older brother with a quizzical look*you called me for a visit?
Pico:actually i wanted you to hang out with two great kids your age.Violet and Zero.*hearing this made Alice and 21 smile at him*
Cole:where is Zero?
Pico:oh his doing a quick task for me.he has taken being my apprentice very well…still gotta work on mastering potion crafting though.
*Violet walked out carrying a plate of snacks*
Violet:anyone hungry?*Jill looked at Violet*
Jill:(black spikey hair. kind smile and a monkey tail…why does that feel familiar?)are you…related to Brenton by any chance?
Violet:that's my dad.
*the front door opened*
Zero:Pico? i'm back i-oh! did i interrupt something?
Cole:not at all son.please go ahead and relax.*Zero smiled as he sighed in relief*
*in the other dimension Brenda sweatdropped*
Brenda:yeah…maybe save that for later?
Apollyn:very well.*a few hours later they were skinny-dipping in the moonlight*hmm this day was so nice i don't want it to end.
Brenda:it doesn't have to you know?*after a very passionate "embrace" they slept next to each other at the beach as Apollyn woke up staring at the slowly waking up Vixen*
Apollyn:good morning.*she then kissed her cheek*
Brenda:yawn did you like our d-*she then wrapped her arms around Brendas neck while kissing her deeply for a few minutes before stopping for air as she twirled her hair while blushing*
Apollyn:Brenton? i love you very much.
Brenda:i-i know.
Jill:so you guys are related to brenton, huh? cool.
Zero:yeah.
Jill:so, do you guys want to hang out?
Zero:hang…out?
Jill:yeah you know do things, have fun?
Zero:like what?
Violet:Zero, hanging out is kind of like socializing with family, only with friends.
Zero:oh. Violet we hang out, right?
Violet:yep!
Zero:hm…neat.
Jill:ok so I'll show you around and show you all the fun stuff it'll be great trust me.
Cole:seems like they are getting along.
BP:yeah.
Juliana:*holds onto her grandfather*ah.
Cole:*holds both of them*aww…
Android 21: they must love how soft you feel.
*in another dimension*
Apollyn:*stroking her fuzzy sides*and I've been thinking all this time on how to help you and have come to a conclusion. Whenever we all get back to earth. I…Im retiring as the sin of Lust and want to marry you!
Cole:i gotta win cool grandpa points somehow.
Pico:cool…grandpa points?
Sarah:*giggles*Cole don't be silly.besides they love us equally.
Cole:just you wait dear i'm gonna shower the each of them with a special gift ain't that right Julie and Michael?
Michael:Dada!
Cole:no i'm grampa say grapa.
Michael:….g…gr….dada!*Pico fell to the ground in a comedic fashion*
Pico:he isn't one yet you know.
Cole:teaching is key my boy.after all when you were a baby you were already at the walking and falling stage.
Juno:…*Juno realising why Michael was getting attention decided to talk.it was just babbling until-*p-p-o-pa…pa pa-pa!
Mia:Junos first word! oh i'm so proud of you.*she hugged her daughter who was trying to hug her father*
DP:(uh oh…did you notice it?)
BP:(very subtle but i think Juno was jealous.)*Pico then pat Juno on the head*
Pico:that's my girl.always so smart like your mother.*this made Juno happily sigh as she hugged her father*
Juno:ah….pa-pa.
Alice/Mia/Android 21/Nene:so cute!
*in the other dimension Brenda smiled as she held Apollyns hand*
Brenda:are you sure? because i don't think even Shenron could change you back to normal.
Apollyn:absolutely.but don't think i didn't notice you dodging the question.*she then playfully flick Brendas nose*
Brenda:to be fair you sprang that on me….hmmm.(4 wives huh?….Roshi would be "proud" that's for sure.)*she then sweatdropped as he imagine the old hermit congratulating her*sure! it'll be fun and if it makes you happy? that's a bonus within itself.
Apollyn:Brenton…i've never been this happy before i-*she then lunged forward kissing Brenda deeply.a few minutes later they returned to the pocket dimension as Ray happily ran up to them*
Ray:how was your date?
Apollyn:it was magical.now if you excuse me my love i have to destroy a certain jar.*she then kissed Brendas cheek before walking inside*
Sarah:they're learning so fast.
Cole:mm. its only a matter of time till when they start ib solids, if they eat like you, son they might clean you out of the cupboard frequently.
BP:hmhm we'll see dad*continues to love juno and picks up walter* I want you and your sibblnigs to know. I love you all very much, and if I change in some way, I promise my love for each and everyone will remain stalwart and shine true.
Walter:*trys to clap at the speech*
DP:heh heh. thank you. your too kind.
Nene:so, Pico what say later we take all the kids out to the park?
BP:well that should be fine. Speaking of, dad do you have anymore of those nifty toys for the kids?
Cole:I can always obtain a few, why do you ask? looking to one-up your old man?
Juliana:Ragoo!*makes a sweet treat appear and begins to try to eat it*
DP:just asking out of curiosity
Sarah:oh my! already making things.
BP:yes and hopefully not changing people into things.
Cole:alright son, I'll look into it.
*In another dimension*
Ray:break a jar…wait, Apollyn!*runs after her*
Apollyn:what's up?
Ray:why do you want to break the jar?
Apollyn:Im done with it. It was nice being a demon for a few 1000 years, but now that im free it feels great. I might not be powerful like you guys, but I've never felt better. Most of my emotions aren't suppressed by that energy, I can feel things I haven't truly felt in ages, plus I have the option to actually have kids!…of course hm, all the things and carnal acts I've performed are with the fires. Im technically right now a…*blushes slightly*w-well you know.
Ray:but aren't you concerned?
Apollyn:what do you mean?
Ray:well, there's 7 of you, right?
Apollyn:seven sins yes.
Ray:well, if you aren't it anymore doesn't that mean the stuff in that jar will choose someone else, or reattach itself to you?
Apollyn:I…I never considered that before.
Ray:It might be best to hold onto it in the event of an emergency. That way no one else can get hurt.
Apollyn:that might be a good idea. heh, I mean…its not going anywhere, and so long as no one else but us knows about it we should be fine. Hey dragon.
Space dragon:yes?
Apollyn:can you lock this somewhere until needed?
Space Dragon:of course.
Apollyn:good.*watches a rift open and puts the jar inside* Well, mission accomplished!
Ray:so, what now?
Apollyn:well, now…I hm. Ray, if its alright with you, I'd like to be alone for a bit. I need to think about somethings.
Ray:alright, just don't keep us waiting too long.*pecks her on the cheek* and goes back to brenda who is stretching* So, what did you two all do on your date?
*the next day Nene and Pico were strolling the kids through the park*
Pico:this was a fantastic idea Nene.
Nene:right? not only do the kids get fresh air but we also get quality time together.
Pico:yeah…sorry about…you know?
Nene:Pico i told you it's fine.infact i was thinking of taking Ruby to our book club! that way she'll have more friends to talk to.
DP:aren't book clubs just a big gossip circle?
Nene:sometimes.
Juno:mmm… papa! hehe!*as Pico looked down a butterfly was touching his daughter's nose*
DP:(Pico serious talk.you haven't felt the other Walter and Junos presence right?)
Pico:(yeah…i assumed they might of you know…)
BP:(well if history altered them that much we won't know until they come back.)
Nene:Pico? thanks for agreeing to this.
Pico:no problem.
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:it was a nice sweet date.we had dinner…swimming…fun…oh and she asked me to marry her.
Ray:really?
Brenda:you…don't sound surprised.
Ray:i'm happy that she loves you as much as i and Sakura.besides i care about her as much as you do silly.*she then winked at her*so what were you doing before i interrupted?
Brenda:i was about to train.*as she do a few push ups she looked at Ray*where is Apollyn?
Ray:she'll be here in a minute.
*Apollyn was smiling with a deep blush as she looked at a mirror*
Apollyn:i feel so happy!…its a shame i can't conjour my own ring.i gotta learn to rely on others since i can't use my magic.*she then looked at her reflection as she pictured herself wearing a wedding dress.this made her smile*oh Brenton…you made me the most happy mortal alive.i do.
Bardock:hey kid! hurry up.
Brenda:i really wish you would stop calling me that.*she then walked up to Bardock* alright "old man" what is the ex planet destroyer going to teach me today?
*Margarine giggled as she walked up to Ray*
Margarine:did you see Apollyn in the bathroom? it was so cute.
BP:*sighs to himself*you know, im glad things are alright. Mia's watching Nene's kids, 21 and alice are spending time with the others and Ruby is practicing at home. Things are great. *receives a phone call* hm? (Jasmine's calling me? how? she doesn't own a phone)*answers*hello?
Jasmine:greetings master.
DP:Hey Jazz what's up, and how are you doing this?
Jasmine:oh, I have access to all the phone database in Zot.
BP:(can she get in trouble for that?)
DP:(only if they know.)um that's great Jazz.*sweatdrops*next time just use the communicator.
Jasmine:I would, but I'd figure you want the privacy of this phone call. I found a note from Juno in the lab with a bit written in by Walter. I'd figure you'd want to read it once you come back. See what their handwriting is like and get a chuckle from it along with my findings from analyzing it.
BP:alright. Thanks. I will. See you later.
DP:(they left a note? For whom? us? or for if they come back in time again?)
BP:we'll have to find out later. Right now, let's just enjoy our time.*picks up walter and begins to tickle him making his son giggle* you having fun bud?
Walter:ah!
DP:I know you are. I can't wait to see how you turn out.
Walter:*puts his hands on his dad's nose*
Nene:aww.*gets an idea* Pico, would you like some Ice cream?
*In another dimension*
Ray:I did. She really is a different person without her sin.
Margerine:you never know what you find in a person till you start digging.
Bardock:alright, kiddo today i'm going to teach you how to maintain your ki in the event you get lost and sent through a dozen worlds and on a few occasions, flung through time.
Pico:i could go for a cone i guess.
Nene:i'll be back in a minute.*she then peck him on the cheek before walking to a ice cream stand*
???:good day ma'am! what will it be today?
Nene:a 1 scoop of vanilla and chocolate as well as 1 with 2 scoops of cookies and cream please.
???:coming right up.
Pico:(i guess we should enjoy ourselves for a bit…but i can't help something scary or sad will be on that letter ya know?)i'm probably over thinking it…what do you think Walter?
Walter:…hehehe!*the baby happily hugged his father*
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:(kinda too late for that last part.)
Bardock:close your eyes and concentrate.*Brenda followed her grandfather's instructions as she activated Burning Courage*now i want you to stay in that form 24 hours a day you hear me?
Brenda:yes sir.but how will this help maintain my ki?
Bardock:it won't.i noticed how that form drained your energy pretty quickly once you ascended so it makes sense to give you that handicap.
Brenda:great…
Bardock:now there are many ways to this.some species even learnt to steal their opponents ki.but what we're gonna do is a bit different.
*Apollyn ran up to them*
Apollyn:i'm back! did i miss anything?
Margarine:you're just in time dear.Brendas training has truly started.
*a few months later Brenda was meditating in her transformed state when suddenly POP! her fox ears and tails vanished replaced with elven ears.at the same time Apollyn and Ray walked out.Ray was smiling at Apollyn hiding a ring box behind her back*
Apollyn:(the fruit wore off!)
Ray:Apollyn sweetie? i got a surprise for you.*she pulled out a diamond ring as she blushed*i-i made it myself.
DP:(aww)love you too bud.*picks up his ice cream*mmm delish.
Walter:ah! ah!*reaches towards it*
BP:hehe, sorry son, your not old enough yet for Ice cream. Though I do have something in the bag for you*magic's out a bottle and after checking it puts it in walter's mouth* there you go.
Nene:*smiles at her husband* hon you got a little on your nose.*looks up to the sky* huh, its not supposed to be cloudy today.
DP:meteorologist probably got it wrong again. hm. Hey, how about we get something for everyone else?
Nene:what did you have in mind?
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:*gasps* its perfect!*tries it on* ray thank you so much!
Ray:your quite welcome.
Apollyn: Im going to show Brenton this right now.*heads off to see the elf more excited than ever*
Pico:well obviously snacks are out of the question for these little monsters.but! theirs always something interesting in the mall.i might even get something for Zero and Violet while we're there…i wonder if they like sports or music.
Nene:oh Pico…*she leaned forward and licked Picos nose making the halfling blush at her seductive smile*ok let's go.*as she walked away Pico blinked in confusion*
Pico:wow…*he then strolled the kids up to Nene as he wrapped 1 arm around her waist*
BP:(i do believe we just won brownie points.)
*in the other dimension Brenda raised an eyebrow with a playful smirk*
Brenda:whoa babe calm down.*she then stand up and stretch*where's the fi-oh! Ray really made that?
Apollyn:mmm hmmm.isn't she just the sweetest?*Apollyn smiled at Ray making the ex elf girl wave*
Brenda:well good for you sweetheart!(the jewel looks like..a part of a earring? very clever Ray.)*Ray walked up to Apollyn and Brenda*
Ray:Brenda your back to normal?
Brenda:apparently.must be because of my matabolisim?
Apollyn:Ray!*feeling swarmed with happy emotions she tackle hugged Ray.and everytime she said "thank you"over and over she would kiss her*thank you thank you thank you!*mwah!*
Ray:n-no problem Apollyn.r-really.
*together with Nene and kids in hand he began stolling around the mall*
BP:(coming attractions? wonder what those could be? a theater maybe? a restaurant?)
DP:(ah, its probably another place for pants.)
BP:(that sounds about right.)
Nene:Pico, I think I found somewhere we could get everyone something!*points to a store*
BP:well, it does look entertaining I will say. Let's see what they have.
*In another dimension*
Apollyn:oh, today just couldn't get any better!
Ray:well, we'll see.
Apollyn:just wait, I'll have something special for both of you.
Ray:you really don't have to.
Apollyn:but I will, you'll see*kisses both of them*
Margarine:*smiles*(well, ain't that a sight to see.)alright you two. I think its time we mix it up a little.
Pico:*as they enter the store Pico smiled*the problem with a mall that has everything it becomes extremely difficult to figure out what to buy.
Nene:come on Pico let's shop over there.*half an hour later Pico looked drained as he was holding a lot of bags while Nene was holding a few*are you alright Pico?
Pico:yeah…i'm right…as rain.what did you buy anyway? you keep hiding those bags away from me.
Nene:it's a surprise.i promise that you'll love it.
*an hour later of fun shopping and returning to the apartment later.Pico kissed Nene on the cheek*
Pico:i gotta check something at my lab.
Nene:well ok.make sure to be careful ok?
DP:we'll be fine.*he then ran out of his home at top speed and when he reached his lab he gulped at the sight of the note*
*in the other dimension*
Brenda:what are we gonna trade mentors for a day or something?*Margarine imagined Ray firing arrows at Bardock as he yelled "hey! watch it!!" this made her giggle*
Margarine:not exactly.*suddenly Brendas body glowed as she turned back to Brenton*
Ray:Brenton are you ok?
Brenton:heh heh…i'm fine.i'm kinda glad i'm back to normal though.
Margarine:now Brenton and Ray? follow me!
Apollyn:(i know i can't fight but i can't help feeling left out.oh well as long as those two are safe i'm happy.)*she then smiled as she followed*
Margarine:now it is to my understanding that you two were given a blessing from a goddess of Earth?
Ray:Miss Gaia? well…yes.i was able to let her posses my body.
Margarine:well good new because you have a special guest.*Gaia appeared smiling at Ray and Brenton*
BP:*standing aways from the table*…well…there it is the last letter our-
DP:don't say last!
*silence fills the room*
DP:im sorry. but knowing that our actions could have…you know. Hurts me as well. I mean we knew them and what did we changed their future.
BP:it…it was for the better. You heard Juno future us was a jerk after this and didn't sound like he was completely better after Michael cured him. Any chance for a better life is what we would wish for them.
DP:which reminds me do you really think Michael will grow to be as powerful as the twins say he will?
BP:Dark.
DP:I mean, he could come back here and-
BP:Dark!
*the 3 then focus back on the letter*
DP:your right. No more putting this off*reaches out to grab the letter and sits down with himself. they all take a deep inhale and their eyes meet the paper*
Juno:Dear Papa,
If you are reading this. Then im guessing the mission was a success. Grandma and Grandpa are still old, and you made it without a scratch on you. Im glad I could be of help. There's so much I want to say, but wally wants to write something too. I wanted to say that, im sorry you overheard my burden. I don't want you to beat yourself up over it. Walter to an extent was right. Yeah, you were a jerk, and I got really hurt, but you weren't in the right mind due to all the stuff you were taking to stay normal and slow the process. I'm sure you remember what being a hot headed teen was like. I mean, 2 of them came back just to look at your files and changed history. So, I guess the apple doesn't fall that far from the tree.
Let me tell you about the day after I killed that thing. I was in the hospital and I saw you cry. you cried and cried and cried dad. you wouldn't let go of me or stop apologizing no matter how many times I said its ok. You spoiled me for a full month, and lightened up just a little bit on all of us. It was the happiest I've been in awhile. Training was still hard, but you remembered we were family. Of course you still felt you had to be right. Even when we towered over you. Getting to meet you before all that really makes me happy and confirm that the man who apologized so much to me was the same I got to meet. Anyway, promise me that you will treat all of our family with love and care and that like in that video Jasmine recorded you'll never change your heart on how you feel about us. I love you papa. I love you very very much.
-Daddies Little Girl,Juno
*they then shed a tear or two before rubbing their eyes sitting there*
Merlin:Pico? Are you in?
BP:its open.
Merlin:*enters* are you alright?
DP:I…I don't know. I just read this from my daughter. …Merlin*starts to choke up* What…what became of my little boy and girl after I came back? Did…did they fade peacefully or?
Merlin:Pico- I
BP:you can tell me. Merlin, please.
Merlin:I feel you should read Walter's half first.
DP:…*remembers he only read half the note*that's right, what does our boy have to say?*cleans his eyes and proceeds to read*
Walter:Father,
If you are reading this then im sorry to say, but we haven't left you yet. We're still here. Juno heard that your big hulking monster was still alive and unconscious. She's going to try and pull a "you" and finish the thing off. I'm going to make sure she doesn't get hurt and try to talk her out of it. Im leaving the time skimmer in the office in the second drawer under your medical files that way it won't break if something goes wrong and we get stuck here. Wish me luck dad.
Your Son, Walter
BP:…*heads to that exact drawer and see the skimmer*They're still here? They're still here! ha ha.*it then dawns upon him* oh goodness where are they, Merlin, how long ago did this happen?
Merlin:A few hours ago.
DP:ah a f- a few hours ago?! that can't be!
Merlin: They were going to head back, but decided on one last Ice Cream first. That's when Juno overheard that the monster that you fought was unconscious and on base. She went to try and finish the job, and Walter followed in tow. They didn't get anywhere near their destination, caused a scene, got into a fight with 3 doctors, 6 scientists, and punched out Jasper the clownagator. After that, they were knocked out with a sleep spell after trying to escape the 3rd floor. Currently, they're in the medical ward down there in the anti-magic section in case Walter tries to pull a Houdini.
BP:why didn't they contact me? why didn't you contact me?
Merlin:Wally and Juno didn't want you to worry about them tomorrow and focus on having fun with them today. They said if I did…well as silly as it sounds, *blushes* your kids have something on me. So they still technically have one call each.
DP:I…I…*sits there mulling his decision and calms down* Merlin. can you open a portal to the medical wing downstairs? Please. For me.
Merlin:*nods*alright.
*in another dimension*
Gaia:hello you two.
Ray:Mother Gaia, what are you doing all the way out here?
Gaia:I was contacted by the Space Dragon to come here. How are you both doing? are you eating ok? I haven't really heard from either of you since the Phoenix on Ruby's planet.
*as they walked through the portal to the medical wing they were greeted by a nurse*
Nurse:hello Pico.your children are this way.*they then followed her to two beds as the future varients of his children were sleeping.the nurse then leaves*
Pico:…i should of gone for the head.
Merlin:unlike in the previous timeline you weren't enraged.you were just worried about your parents safety and i knew if things were different you would care not to take that things life.
Pico:did…Juno hate me when she found it was alive?
Merlin:no dear just confused.*Pico then placed his hand on his daughter's.*
BP:well it could be worse.at least they're not in a coma.
*in the other dimension*
Brenton:uh we're fine.yes we've eaten plenty and sorry we haven't been able to contact you…we've been busy.
Ray:by the way i can never thank you enough for lending your aid.*she then held both the goddess's hands together looking grateful*
Gaia:of course dear.now are you two ready?
Brenton/Ray:yes ma'am!
Margarine whispered to apollyn*
Margarine:i knew some gods repay tributes to their followers but it almost looks like a mother guiding their children.*Apollyn smiled*
Apollyn:Gaia is very sweet like that.she even putted up with my antics when i was a demon.(i was kinda hoping that she noticed my human appearance though…)
