DN Anites (Always Open)

i said''im with clara and jason put chase down...''looking down. i said''i forgive you chase not for you but for me.'' chase said''its ok nichole i understand but i really do love you....''
 
My eyes saddened as she spoke,and I decided to not mention my relationship with Tarea. "I know what you mean. I bet before the Anites,opportunity meant getting a job promotion. Now all it means is killing that guy before he kills you...",I said sadly.
 
The words were true, and for some reason hearing them from Jason made them even worse. Clara hid her face in her hair and hugged her knees to her chest. Her heart was almost empty with loneliness. She lacked a will to keep going, and even her tears were gone.


(awwww we all turned emotastic D: )
 
(i noticed its so depressing but we need it sometimes) i sighed sadly looking away from chase my heart shattered. i wouldn't show my pain now or ever. i hugged clara. chase looked down''i never meant to hurt you....''
 
(Yes. Bad to balance the good.) "What's the point?",I asked suddenly,surprising myself,"Why are we fighting,I mean? We could probably just find a nice island somewhere,or maybe an entire planet. I hear there's a nice one just past the Alpha Centauri star system.".
 
i sighed and said''c-cant we get rid of them? i heard of this plant it'll grant any wish you want BUT theres a catch if your wish is filled with darkness your wish will backfire but if it is of good heart and pure intentions it will grant your wish and give you anything you need or desire...its called the Wonder flower!"
 
I hesitated before saying,"I'm just speculating. There's no people there,right? No people,no fighting,no corruption. Or maybe I'm thinking about this all wrong.",with a shrug. I put a hand on my chin and thought out loud,"Maybe instead of moving forward...we should be moving back.".
 
Suddenly Clara sat up. "They're dead. The virus was released and they're dead. There is no going back. The time of humans is over." Clara said the words she had been keeping from herself for so long. The humans were dead and she hadn't saved them. She wasn't the hero and this wasn't the ending she wanted.
 
I suddenly had an epiphany. "Not the back I was talking about.",I said,slightly giddy with the implications of my realization. I pulled out a book and began rifling through it,stopping every so often to read a reference. "You remember before when I said our abilities gave us power? Over others,over ourselves,over the universe?",I asked excitedly.
 
i stood and said''guys what if we combined our powers maybe we can travel back in time! if we find where the asteroid will hit maybe we can find where it is in space if we can locate it the gravitational pull if we change that we might can save everyone!''
 
"Well,I did,but I didn't say it like that. I said 'power over ourselves,power over others,and even the power to bend time and space to our wills.' I have the space part down,and this...",I began in triumph,turning the book around to show a picture of Stonehenge,"...will help with the time part. Nichole,you're one step ahead.".
 
Clara became dizzy with confusion. "What the hell are you babbling on about?" She asked both of her companions. She was feeling strained and excited at the same time, which left her a bit disoriented.
 
i had been standing back in a corner watching the man i love go from a sweet guy who couldnt hurt a fly turn to a man who was volenteering(sp) to rip a guys eyes out. my hands held my arms as tears rolled down my face. our group was falling apart. my back slid down the wall and i sat on the fround my head in my knees. i breathed hard and in gasps, i was looking for words to say but nothing would pass my lips. my voice was constricted emotionally and no sound could escape(haha everytime i spell that word i think of Finding Nemo :D ) my mouth. i was a mute of my own accord. i let my head drop as i waited for the others to gather themselves.
 
I said''thanks jason and we're talking about time travel if we time our entry just right we wont interfere with the flow of time but we will change the course of history if we land in the correct time period we can put our powers to the ultimate test...'' chase said''but how?''
 
"This.",I said,pointing to the picture of Stonehenge,"Like the Station,it was built by ancient mages to serve as a gateway. However,whereas the Station served as a gateway through space,Stonehenge serves as a gateway through time.". I smiled brightly at my four companians,and my eyes widened as I felt...something. Was it...could it be...hope? Yes,it was. Hope that this could finally end! But wait...,"There are numerous complications,though. We change the meteor hitting Earth and I have NO idea what could happen. We could also fail and die in the impact blast.",I warned.
 
i nodded and said''maybe we could use something that has a strong enough gravitational pull we can get it away from Earth but we have to figure out what....." Chase said''dont they usually have some magnetic pull as well?''
 
"Tarea came from the planet where the meteor is from... And there are so many ways it could go wrong... and wouldn't we still have out powers." Clara rushed her words


(Sorry, short posts. distracted. gimmie a minute)
 
I sighed and said,"Yes,and this is the clincher...even if we succeeded in stopping the meteor,we'd still have our powers in the new timeline. It's a failsafe the mages built into the mechanism to prevent paradoxes. We go back and stop the meteor,we don't have powers that let us go back and stop the meteor. The meteor hits,we get powers,and we go back and stop the meteor.".
 
Clara sits and contemplates her options for a moment. Then she smiles and jumps to her feet. "I can't use my powers anyways. Worth a go! Count me in." She said and put her hand out. Her old optimism shone through a bit in her wise eyes and faded smile.
 
I thought about it. "Pretty much,yes.",I answered Nichole,getting more and more determined with every second. "No humans left to risk,nothing left on Earth to go back to...and even if we fail,we'll still be able to make a difference! We could fight this war from the start,stop the Shadow Society from ever forming!",I exclaimed,jumping up and putting my hand over Clara's,"Let's do it!".
 
i nodded and said''who's ready to save the world?!'' fist pumping. chase smiled and said''lets do this!'' i heard a small beeping like a tracker. i looked at chase and said''sorry about this..HI YA!"hitting his pressure point. my ears turned trying to find where it was. i saw small tracker chip just under the skin of his forehead.
 
"Yes,because they can totally track us through time.",I said sarcastically,following her gaze and disintergrating the chip with a flick of my other hand.
