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.

Theh silver-haired man hurriedly finished with the directions and messages he was relaying and turned to her when he saw her approaching.

"Kristoff." Cassie said softly. "This must be hard on you." He looked like he'd been through hell.

"That is of no consequence," he mutters softly. He's not stupid enough to ask 'are you all right?' but he's clearly concerned.

"The operation starts in a few hours. There's...nothing else to get done just this moment."

"Kris," Cassie laid a hand on his shoulder. "I think- I think that if the Cassie you knew could talk to you, well I think I'd know what she'd want to say to you."

He manages to meet her eyes for a moment.

"I-She forgives you. Please don't hurt yourself over what you can't change. She wouldn't want you to." And please find some way to save Scotty.

He looks at her oddly a moment longer, then manages a slight smile. "As she would wish, then. I will try not to."

He can sense that here's something she's not saying.
"If we can get this set of people free, we can keep sabotaging his infrastructure until he's in a position in which he has to listen to reason. I swear I will do everything I can..."

Cassie's hold on Kristoff's shoulder tightened. "Please, don't kill him. If there's any way- he needs help. He just needs-" Cassie stopped herself. "He needs help." She repeated, looking away.

"I will not. I don't think I could..." He's still staring a little, hands on her shoulders in turn. "And I will try as much as humanly possible to see that no one else does, that no one needs to." He can't promise it won't happen, but he'll do everything he can. Smash-and-grabs against the biggest atrocities and power sources is the better plan anyway.

Cassie stroked Kristoff's cheek. She suspected that her Kristoff wouldn't like it, but this older one needed comfort. He needed to say goodbye. And as for the other Cassie, she suspected that she wouldn't mind.

"There's something else. Were we married?"

Kristoff's eyelids drop. almost like he needs to store the moment.

Then, "No. I had finally worked up the nerve again, but..." His voice fails for a moment.

"I'm sorry." She didn't know how he would take what she was about to say. "If she were like me... she would have said yes. I- she- loved you."

"I...I know. Cassandra, I..." And still unable to speak in complete sentences, he throws his arms around her again.

Cassie did the only thing she could do. She held Kristoff close.
