Time travel: not for the faint of heart
The Fantastic Four’s new location was, as it had been last time, in the middle of a busy square. The architecture of the buildings was different, more advanced and with an oriental feel. There was a garden in the center of the square, well cared for and vibrant. Not very far from the square there was a Sphinx. If the unwilling time travelers at first assumed that they were In Egypt, they could not be faulted. However, there was a landmark that would place them in New York City: the Statue of Liberty. At least that was it had been. Now Lady Liberty was transformed, now bearing a striking resemblance to one member of their team: Cassandra Lang.

	"...Please tell me you're not going to kill my son." Cassie said. Still feeling the effects of the tear gas, more tears fell down her face. She wiped them away with one hand. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Kristoff shakes his head. "Ideally, we will be in and out before it's even gotten his full attention." the older Kristoff declines to address what some people might want to do someday if possible. "The loss of the people serving as power supplies alone should impair several of the systems of the most relevance worldwide." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I can think of another way to distract him. Send me back. I want to talk to him." Both groups of heroes should recognize that voice. It was the 'Screw whatever you think, I'm doing this anyway' voice. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cassandra.... do not ask my brother to see you lost again. Scott Lang is long dead, so far as we should all be concerned." The elder Vincent's eyes fix on the Andreas. "For all the conqueror has taken from us, his life is the least of his penance. He will live only to see justice served." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cassie turned on the older Vincent. "SHUT UP! I am going to see my son. If anyone can get through to him it will be me. And even if not he hasn't had a mother in God knows how long so just take me to see him. Drop me off, come back here. I don't care. I am seeing my son!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not taking you anywhere." His reply is composed, and the finality of it hangs in the air. Sensing who his next argument is about to come from, his eyes flash at his younger self. "And you'll find him quite unable to as well, so long as I will it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Neither Kristoff looks at all happy with any of the older Vincent's choice of words, but. "Cassandra," Kristoff said very quietly. "There would be the issue of getting you out of there again. We can't risk your not being in range of the transmat when it sends us back ...back Scotty as we left him..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"But he's my son. I can't-" Her voice broke and she closed her eyes. "Sorry." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	discardedheir 2009-08-22 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	Kristoff holds her. "Nothing to apologize for." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This is but one possible future, Cassandra," Andrea said. "This is not what will be, but what may be. And with knowledge of it, the likelihood of this becoming our future decreases with every moment we spend here." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Cassandra, I tell you emphatically, this will not come to pass." Vincent says forcefully, trying to summon a teleportation spell just to prove his older self wrong, but feeling nothing. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	staturity 2009-08-23 02:49 am UTC (link)
	"But it's-" Cassie pinched the bridge of her nose. "It's all ready happened in this world." And that was one world too many. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Entirely the point. Our world is already damaged, and it is our goal to fix it as best we are able." The older Vincent says forcefully, dispersing the imagery of the mission finally. He doesn't release his hold on Andrea, but looks over at Cassandra.

"My brother and I have both lost the women we love, and it was only through a sacrifice beyond your comprehension that I was able to save Andrea. Do not ask us to see you endangered and lost again."

	"The point has been made, brother." The silver-haired Kristoff just looks in agony at the woman in his younger self's arms for a moment, then manages to say. "We have some facilities further down for you to clean up and rest a little." (Reply to this)(Parent)
