Only time will tell (FutureShipping)

Chapter 39

Idk when exactly this chapter would be out, but happy new years my silverlings!

Its been by least a few weeks.

Few weeks since that day.

Acronix made a full recovery, yet he was under surveillance for some time because the ninjas was ratherly shaken up by those sudden events. Mainly Lloyd. But what was hard for Acronix, is sending his own brother to prison. For who knows how long. He had been charged for many of things, Acronix had to have the ninjas make sure Krux didn't get a death sentence.

Acronix sat in the lobby of the tower mainly keeping to himself. He was just quietly waiting for something to happen. He quietly was thankful the city doesn't know of this. But all they know is that the prisoners are back into their rightful cells. Acronix's mind was disturbed when he heard a voice. "Nixy...it's been a week...are you sure you're ok..?" Cyrus asked softly, gently touching the time twins arm. Acronix nodded, not saying a word.

"I know you enough to know that was a lie...why not meet me up at the office in 10 minutes..? I have to talk to you about something". The inventor said as he left Acronix alone. The male sighed and rubbed his face. "It's hard...very hard to accept that I won't be able to see my brother as much anymore...not by my side..". He talked to himself. He helped with a friendly customer before he actually headed up to the 100th floor in no time at all.

"What did you want to talk about Cybug..?" Acronix muttered as he walked over. "I know it's hard for you to accept you won't be able to see Krux anymore. Well not as often. But before there's even a thought of letting him go...he has to get therapy. Alot of it. Because he has suffered alot more than you have realized." Cyrus started explaining as he turned to the computer and brung up the video feed of Krux's cell. Who he just sat in the corner curled up and not saying anything.

"So far they determined it's more emotional trauma. Ptsd and even signs of depression that could make a doctor declare he is depressed. Dispite the wounds he recieved from the fight. They said that he has previously self harmed. But they are merely scares now. But dispite all of this...he misses you Acronix...so. We thought about this, and decided for you to visit Krux during his therapy lessons so it could help him recover." Cyrus said with a small smile.

Acronix's eyes widen at his words and he finally was able to smile. "T..thank you...thank you so much...gracias..." Acronix said with some tears sliding down his face. He hugged Cyrus gently from behind. "You're welcome hun..." Cyrus said softly. Though after a long period of silence, Acronix finally spoke up.

"Hey um...I'm...now comfortable with the city knowing of us..." he muttered, Cyrus looked at him and gave him a small kiss. "No matter what the people say, I don't care if my reputation is ruined. I love you Nixy. And that will stay as that. Mi Amor" He said, making Acronix blush hard. "You spoke in spanish- and you're not even hispanic-" "got it from you", both of the males laughed at the small comment.

"Dad? Your meeting starts in a few minutes." Pixel mentioned, Cyrus gave a nod before he looked back to Acronix. "Mind joining me?" He asked. Acronix's eyes widen in excitement before he nodded. They both made their way to the elevator and headed down to the 78th floor. Acronix felt happy once again, and the joy of him spending the afternoon with Cyrus put his mind off what's been going on.

They walked into the conference room. The other business men and women looked confused as to who this man was. But one quickly recognized him. "Mr.Borg, I'm afraid to ask, why is one of the time twins here?" The lady asked hesitantly. Everyone else quickly gotten curious, hey uneased. Acronix frowned a bit. "Because Mr.Borg invited me to join. And I do not associate with the time twins anymore as my twin is locked away in prison due to his assault on the city. And to the elemental masters, along with the ninjas." He explained to her.

Everyone stayed silent as the one who was about to present nervously coughs. "Well. We are glad to have you here-" "honestly. I know all of you are uneased with me being here. Your expressions is easy to read. I'll be here quiet, like I wasn't here." Acronix interupted the male, though he gave a light smile. "But don't let me be an interuption." He said and fell silent after that.

The man nervously smiled before he started his presentation. Amongst the two hours that went on and one 30 minute lunch break, Acronix pitched in a few good ideas here and there. Mainly with the ideas that people used in the past that seemed to never make it to today's time. It created a easier environment for everyone, even some let go of their worries and actually talked with Acronix for a short time.

"Thank you Mr. Borg for this meeting today. Wish to meet with you again for future projects." One of the female said, gently shaking his good hand. "My pleasure Ms. Rachelle." Cyrus said with a soft smile as he watched her leave. He thanked the others for coming, even a few stayed to talk to Acronix for a short time. It warmed Cyrus's heart to see that Nixy gained trust with ease. And to know how much knowledge he obtained over a short time.

Acronix waved them goodbye, but his smile turned loving as he picked up Cyrus's good hand and lightly kissed it. "Please Acronix-" "what? I can be your knight in shining armor if I like to" Acronix teased, making Cyrus blush furiously. "You're cheesy-" he muttered, making Acronix laugh gently. "Only for you".

"Mr. Borg..?" A lady questioned quietly in shock. Both males looked over to Rachelle who was suddenly back at the door. Cyrus nervously coughed. "Yes?" He said with a innocent smile. "I just- forgot my purse- im sorry to interfere- this-" she tried explaining, but it was clear she was shocked to find this out. She quickly went to her seat and grabbed her purse before she left without another word.

Acronix hummed and thought. "In no time the city would know-" "very much so-" "so-" "pray to the first spinjitzu master that things go well-" "indeed-" they both nervously smiled. But didn't mind it. Acronix was willing to defend Cyrus by any means. He wasn't going to let possible haters ruin his reputation or their relationship.

Acronix took his leave back downstairs, but he didnt leave before he got his kiss. Which Cyrus found cheeky, yet adorable. Acronix felt more eased on situations now, and he was able to help others now with ease. Though one thought still remain deep within his mind. What ever happened to TC?
