Pardon my French but....WTF? I am still extremely confuzzled. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!

Peter looked at the boy in front of him. He cried and begged him not to do it.
"Please don't...my power isn't that good."
"Oh yes it is little boy. Not feeling pain is just what I need. Now pain won't effect me." Peter smiled as his eyes glowed red.
"NO please!" The boy screamed. Peter let it rip. The boy rithed in agony. Then he fell silent. It was done.

Sara's pacing stopped, she needed to think and pacing helpped but making sure she didn't run into anything created a lag in the thought process.
"Alexx sit down over here." Alexx sat down on a stool in front of Sara. Sara put her palms on the side of her head, she closed her eyes and concentrated. But Alexx's mind was blocked. "Alexx I need you to relax and open your mind."

"I'm trying Sara."

"Then it must not be you, somebody's blocking your mind. I'm getting booted out everytime I try. I'm going to try Greg... future Greg."

Sara walked over to the couch and put her hands on each side of his head. She closed her eyes and read his future memories. She remembered the mall, where she saw everything. The "battle" everything up to where Sara stepped up to the big black and red thing that was Peter.

Then everything changed, Greg's memories of that day stopped. He had locked them away. She saw a bar, and a tab bigger than Sara had ever earned. Then Alexx walked in dropped a few twenties on the bar infront of the bartender and helpped Greg stand up.

Everything kept going downhill, ok already things have changed so that future didn't happen but this new future did but a little bit of both. cept Greg hasn't gone nutso freako yet, that happens in part two at a younger age. kk? Greg drank like there was no tomorrow and hoped there wouldn't be.

It nearly brought her to tears. When she pulled away she looked at Gregs face. It looked like he hadn't shaved in months, and the bags under his eyes showed that he didn't sleep very well. ok he's still from peter's time but changed a little bit. Its confusing me a little bit too, fake it til you make it.

When she pulled her hands away future Greg's eyes opened and widened. "Sara? Oh my God it is you!" He sat up and pulled her close to him. "Oh I can't believe it's really you." He looked around the cabin. "Mattius? wow you look different. Alexx, Owen," his eyes grazed over everyone and paused on Greg. "Okay what the hell's going on?"
confusing i know, well it is to me i hope its not too bad for you

"Nice to see you too, self." said Greg mockingly. He walked straight to the old man and placed a hand on him. "Wait for me," he said to Sara before the two faded.

"Greg!" cried Sara.

"We're right here," said Future Greg.

"Greg....s!"

"Where did they go?" asked Alexx, "Now really is not the time for this.

"What are they talking about?" Future Greg asked.

"I phased us out of our Dimension by about .005206 degrees."

"Why!?"

"You cant be here," Prsent Greg knelt beside him. "The future is already changeing and you're becoming a temporal vacum. Not only wuill you die but you'll destroy this entire reality."

"But I can help!" protested Future Greg. He face was stareting to melt and reform.

"I know you can. and you will. You feel it dont you. You're memories are being rewritten with every word I say. You'll die."

Future Greg thought for a moment. He could still see everyone but they couldn't see him. His eyes lay on Sara. The one memory that was constant.

"What do I have to do?"

Present Greg layed his hands on Future Greg. "This wont hurt." Future Greg's memories faded. His childhood, his teens, everything faded into black. As the last memory faded he saw Sara's face. If it meant saving her...He would gladly lose her.

Future Greg's body blew away like sand leaving a glowing orb. All is well It struck Present Greg in the chest. He gasped for a moment as the energy entered him. It fused with his own creating something foregin to him.

The phase shift vanished and Greg returned. Alone. He appeared before them.

"Where did he go!?" asked Matthius. Greg looked at Sara his Love for her was two-fold. He never thought he could love her more but life is just one big suprise after another.

"Greg?" asked Sara, "You sure are looking at me funny...."

"Where is he!" repeated Matthius.

"Gone," said Greg. He was creating an inbalance. I had to let him go before it was to late. But he gave me something. I cant quite figure out what." He placed his hand on his chest. It felt very warm. "Sara, can you tell me what you see?"


WEE!!! Hope that plays into everything. It takes care of Future Greg nicely:) Hopefuly Sara sees something useful.

oh heck yeah Adam, i'm having a genius day!


Sara put her hands on Greg's chest. She couldn't see anything, but she could feel it. Power beyond her imagination, power fuled by hate, misery, and love. The power felt like than the power he got in the alley; she pulled away, tears started pooling in her eyes. He couldn't hold that much power.

"Sara?" He asked taking her hands. "What do you see?" She moved his hands to the side of her head. If she tried to talk she would burst into tears. When she let his hands down he wrapped his arms around her. "Its okay Sara, I can handle it now."

"Promise?"

"On my life."

"Not yours, promise on my life. A promise I know you'll keep."

"I could never do that, no matter what the problem is."

"Promise."

"I swear that if I can't I will lose everything I love about you."

"Thank you."

"What did you two see?" Mattius asked.

"Greg's power has more than doubled," Owen said, "I can feel it flowing off of him."

"What does that mean?" Alexx asked.

"It means..." Sara said as she looked up at Greg, "we attack Peter."

"What?!" They said in unison.

"We attack him, we smash him now! Hit him with everything we've got."

"Sara's lost her mind," Owen said cautiouslly.

Greg readied himself. He could handle the power but it took more concentration. More meditation.

Everyone was running around prepareing but how can you reall prepare for this? The battle to end all battles.

Sara sat down in front of Greg. He opened his eyes and looked at her. "Meditate with me," he said gently. She nodded and closed her eyes.

They both levitated from the ground at once. Even the most subtle thought they had together could be realized.

I want you to know that....Greg started to whisper into Sara's mind, but she stopped him.

Shut up

The floated there for at least forty-five minutes.

"Guys," said Alexx, "It's time."

They stopped floating and stood. Everyone gathered in the Living room.

"May we all return," said Matthius, "May the Key turn and unlock the door to a new future." He glanced at Alexx as he said it.

Everyone focused and vanished into thin air.

Peter watched as the beast hit the ground. He enjoyed stopping to go kill something. He had just killed the beast outside of Matthius' cabin. He loved this new sense of hearing and this new power of sound. Wait....what was that. He looked up to see a cloud of matter. Alexx and her friends matter. They were teleporting. Fast but not fast enough. He leaped up and smashed into the cloud knocking one of its passengers out.

"No!" yelled Matthius as he hit the ground.
"Hello Matt," Peter said.
"Peter...how...how-" peter threw him into a three.
"Here have some ice ice baby." he shot two circles out of his hands into Mathius's wrists, pinning him to the tree. "I'm going to take your power," Peter said as he walked closer.
"How did you know.. I was.. The one?" He squirmed in pain.
"I haven't just known, I've wanted. Having thirteen lives is an amazing power, I must have it." Peter's eyes glowed red. A few lone sparks shot out of his eyes.
"Please! You won't be able to handle it@
"So," he shot the red lightning out of his eyes, striking mathius, who shook in pain. "Power! Sweet power!" Peter laughed as his new power entered his body. The lightning stopped.
"Why... did...you... do... that?" Mathius had somehow survived.
"You're still alive? Well, I have a treat for you." Peter laughed menically and pointed at him. Blood rushed out of his mouth. He screamed and shook. Peter watched as his spleen flew out and splattered on the ground. "I'll leave you with that." Peter rose into the ari and shot off. "I have a mall to destroy.

Sara, Greg, Alexx, and Owen appeared outside of THE MALL. They all stumbled a little bit, not quite used to that method of traveling. "When is Peter supposed to show up?" Alexx asked as they walked towards the revolving doors in the front.

"Soon I think," Greg tilted his head to the sky.

"By now he's impossible to beat," Owen said.

"Nothing's impossible Owen," Alexx said and grabbed his hand.

"Whoever said nothing's impossible never tried slamming a revolving door," Sara's pessimistic side reared its ugly head again.

Greg put an arm around her shoulders, "well lets test that theory." Greg walked up to the revolving door and confident that nobody was going in or out sung it as hard as he could. It spun around and around until it slowed down to grab. Owen and Alexx both had their turns and each time got the same responce.

"Told you," Sara said.

"Your turn Sara, we all made fools of ourselves its your turn."

Sara rolled her eyes and walked up to the door. Using all of her might she took the door and flung it as hard as she could, confident it would prove her right. When the side that she had flung reached the other side it stopped, it hadn't slowed down it just stopped. Sara had slammed the revolving door.

"Maybe nothing's impossible for you," Greg teased and pushed the revolving door as they passed through.

YAY!! i put my new favorite thing in here!

Okay...who is Alex?

Peter smiled. He liked this new power. He could now die 13 times. How awesome was that. But now he had to focus on the mission, taking the power of mind reading. A man he was supposed to meet in a mall in Chicago had that power. Where would he kill him? Peter pondered this. Suddenly he felt the red slits go over his eyes. A premonition of things to come.

Peter saw Alexx, Greg, Sara, and Owen walk through a store in the mall...the mall he was going to go to." This should e fun." Peter thought. He would be coming and they wouldn't even now it. He suddenly felt him jump ahead, to a scene farther in the future. He was going nuts shooting of a whole crap load of power killing everyone in sight. That he liked.

Peter awoke with a start on the ground. "Woah." Peter smiled an evil smile. He would go and do more than just get one power. He might get over 100 powers. But...what about the last image...that might prove fatal....but he had all the time in the world...maybe even have all the WORLD. He started to laugh.
"Whose there?" A voice of an elderly woman said.
"Only me." Peter shot a mental blast at her.
"AHHH!" He walked over to her.
"Your gonna-" Peter was taken aback. Hhhh-how was that...
"Peter? Is that you?" The woman he had almost killed was his grandma. No..it couldn't be. A shard of a broken vase was all the way through her gut.
"Urgk..." Her head dropped.
"Grams...GRAMS?" Peter shook her."No...please wake up." He shook her harder. He knew what he had to do. He would go to the mall and avenge his grandmothers death. Alexx would pay for this. Yes she would....

Peter flew across the city. Fiery tears fell from his eyes. How could he do that. He remember future Peter's words: "Let go of your feelings and you will live." He said he would and in that moment he did. He felt all of his emotions, minus anger, fall away. He felt sharper and more dangerous.

Peter landed outside of the mall. It was showtime.

Greg looked to the doors. Matthius was missing but it didn't take a genius to figure out what happened to him.

"He's here," said Greg. His eyes started to glow a burning white light.

"Are we even ready for this?" asked Alexx. Her voice trembled as she took a fighting pose.

"Do not doubt yourself," said Owen pulling out a sword, "Second guessing will get you killed. Sara stood next to Greg.

"What about all these people?" she asked, "He'll kill them all." The front of the mall looked as if it were melting. The walls bent a twisted as Peter drew closer.

"Then well have to get him away from here," said Greg, "Together guys!" A plus of mental communication. You didn't have to waste time in explanation. Sara, Owen, Alexx and greg focused on Peter and BAM! They sent him flying into the field near the mall.

They ran out after him, as fast as possible. This was it. The final battle.

The group looked down at the burned field. The skid looked like a word....P...E...T...E....R...no. He was advertising himself.

The saw him at the other end of the field he was floating just above the ground, smoke and fire coming off of him.

"Peter!" the group prepared for the attack.
"Hello Alexx. You want to know who died today? Grams." He saw her suddenly get stricken with fear and sadness. "Ah...is Alexx sad?" Peter laughed a horrible laugh.
"You...you...monster!" Sara yelled.
"Shut up." He shot a blast of mental strength that through her back.
"You'll never win!" Owen yelled.
"Oh I think I will." He laughed,"Catch me if you can!" He speed off towards the mall.
"NO! We got to stop him!"

The people screamed as he smashed through the wall. "'ello everyone. Peter's here to tuck you in for eternity!" He laughed as he shot out random blasts of red lightning. Humans had no power so they were just turned into raw energy. There. He saw the man who had the mind reading power. It was hard to miss him. He was yelling that he was the one at him.
"I'll stop you, you murderer!" But it was too late for him. A bolt of lightning was already in front of him.
Peter liked the new power. He could here his victims final thoughts as he killed them. But where was Alexx and her group? One of them was destined to die. But who? Hopefully Alexx.
"Peter!" A shout drew his attention away from his task. It was a young girl...Alexx! He leaped up on to the floor above him (the one the girl is located on).
"You just signed a death wish!" He shot a red bolt. It hit her in the head.
"Fool...I'm...nnnn-not ...Alexx." the girl fell over. Her body turned into a different girls body."I saved her..." She fell limp.
"I'm over here you idiot!" This was the real Alexx.
"I knew that...but thanks for the power." He turned into Matthius.
"What did you do to him."
"It's a shame...he had the stomach flew. Literally, his stomach FLEW!" Peter laughed and with each chuckle the building shook.
"Your reign is over!" Shouted Owen.
"You think your little sword is going to do anything against me? I can melt that." He pointed at it. Owen dropped it and watched it turn into a puddle of muck."You were saying?"
"Peter...why?" Greg tried to reason with him.
"Because...you know what was wrong about you? You thought good guys stayed good guys and bad guys wore capes. Looks like you were wrong on both."

Peter went bezerk. His shots of flame blew the mall's roof off. Sara lashed out at him with mental powers. He didn't even stumble. He shot one back at her, she flew into the fountian.

"Sara!" Greg shouted, but she was okay.

"You cannot do anything, puny little human!" Peter shot a contained a blast of energy into Greg's shoulder. He was knocked back.

Owen and Alexx flew into action, lashing out at Peter with everything they had. Sara rushed over to Greg. She slid him around a counter, and held a cloth over his shoulder which was now bleeding.

"Greg, this is gonna hurt like hell."

"It doesn't matter, get Alexx and Owen and just leave. Any where, just fight Peter later. I'll hold him off as long as I can. But he's impossible to beat."

Sara kissed his forehead, and said, "I slammed a revolving door remember? Nothing's impossible." She kissed him and he returned the kiss releasing the longing that had been nawing at his heart for seven years.

She raised herself up but Greg held on to her hand. "Sara don't."

"Greg I have to." She pulled her hand away and stepped from the counter. Greg tried to stand but she pushed him back down with a sudden burst of power. "PETER!" She screamed.

They both new at that instant who was meant to die.

Peter flew a shot out at her, she deflected it. She shot one at him, which wasn't powerful enough to even make him twitch. She drew on all of the power she could find and at the same time they shot fire at the other.

A stale mate, neither's power would yeild. Greg pulled himself up just as the wind started.

A white wind whipped everything around from the middle of their powers. Greg screamed Sara's name but it was lost to the winds.

As Peter's and Sara's powers morphed in the middle a ball of white light formed. It grew, obsorbing their energy. They both knew what was going to happen when it got to them. It was going to suck them in too.

When it did, all they could see was a bright white light. Even as they pulled their powers away they felt the sharp tug as it pulled them in. The light dissappeared leaving the mall in disorder. All that was left of Sara and Peter was a scorch mark on the white lenoliom on the floor.

Greg, Owen, and Alexx walked to the spot where the scorch mark was. Pain swelled in Greg's stomache and heart. He could have saved Sara if he had tried hard enough.

"I can't believe they're gone," Alexx said, both happy and sad. Peter was gone, but so was Sara. She looked over at Greg, his eyes vacant and fixed on the scorch mark. Her and Owen wrapped their arms around him, knowing it wouldn't do any good, but it never hurt to try.

The next person to post this will take place two or three years later, Greg's a drunk in Mexico, Owen's looking for him in the wrong place, Alexx is running a bar and living upstairs, and Sara's in limbo with Peter.

"Dammit Why did you give me power if I couldn't save them!" Screamed Greg at the council.

"Peter is no longer a threat to your dimension or ours. It is no longer our concern." said the Head of the council.

"You...I...AHH!" the room seemed to waver. Greg Was trying to control his rage. "Where is she! Tell me where she is!"

"No."

"Fine! Then find another slave! Screw all of this!" Greg vanished fom the council. He opened his eyes to the darkness. te paint on the walls had started to roll. "ugh...."

3 years later

Greg swallowed another gulp of whisky. A bout the only thing he could feel anymore. His eyes were red, dark rings beneath them. He couldn't think clearly. A blessing.

"You need to go home Greg," said the Bartender.

"Why, What's at home," replied Greg.

"How about this, Pay me now or leave."

"Fine!" Greg stumbled out into the street.
