The computer went off and I jumped and looked at it. "We have a hit on the time traveler we've been chasing since the beginning." I yelled. "Grab your coats, We're going to Alaska. "Said peter. We got there but all we could see was snow and ice. "How are we going to find him here?" I asked. "Dont get lost." Said Carter walking further into the storm. "I found something." Said Peter poking something in the ground. We found 3 bodies lying in the cold, and got them on the ship. "Great, we are taking the time judges on our ship." Said Carter dragging newt by his feet. "If we left them out there, we wouldnt be any better then they are." I said grabbing Ben's arm and dragging him on the ship. "How come I have to drag the huge guy who weighs more than me?" Asked Peter trying his hardest to drag luke on board.
We got them on the ship and put in the spare rooms. We were sitting at the table playing cards when ben, luke and newt walked into the main room. "We finally caught you spark." Said ben smiling and reaching for his ray gun which we took when we found them. "We saved you, idiot." Said Carter. "Alice?" Said newt confused. "I'll explain, peter isnt my brother and I'm apart of their team. So sorry for deceiving you but technically its y'alls fault for trying to capture us when we were in the middle of an arrest." I said dealing them in the game. "Wait, you were arresting that guy when we first meet?" Asked luke. "Yes we were until you came along " said peter. "We thought you were trying to help him escape us." Said ben. "Wait, you guys dont want to get rid of time travel all together?" I asked. "No, we love time traveling, we just hate when people mess with the time line." Said luke. "We are after the same guy but fighting each other. Wow We're pathetic."said peter.
We talked for a while till the computer went off again. "We have a hit on two time travelers in the same region. " said Carter. "Well take one and you guys take the other." Said ben. "Your not the boss." Said Carter. "Neither of yall are the boss. I am so listen up. Team one is Newt, ben, and luke take the time traveler in the west region and we'll take the one in the east." I said. "Yes ma'am." Said the guys running out the door.
Three hours passed then we meet at the ship. "We got the guy." Said ben. "We got the..... same guy?" Said Carter confused. "Buckelberry twins. Best known for almost destroying Buckingham palace."said luke. "Do they have a history of kidnapping people?" I asked. "No they just destroy things and make trouble for us. " said luke. I walked inside letting the guys deal with the criminals. "What's wrong alice and what was up with the question?" Asked luke walking into the main room. "My family was taken from our home, my dog blue was injured and almost died. I want so bad to find who hurt him then maybe I'll find my family." I said lying my head on the table. "Why dont we go back to the crime scene, maybe we can find something you guys missed the first time but while we are stuck in this storm draw me something that makes you happy." He said handing me my sketch book and pencils.
I spent 4 hours drawing a picture. "What's she drawing?" Asked Carter. "Something that makes her happy." Said luke. "Is the storm over yet?" Asked ben. "Almost another 30 minutes then we can kick the engines on and get out of here." Said peter. "Done." I said showing the guys the picture. "Wow, it looks awesome." Said newt handing it to Carter. "Alice I'm touched." Said luke and Peter. Ben was speechless when he saw the drawing, he got up and hugged me. "Is the storm over yet? I really want to get home." I said checking the radar again. "Alice, get away from the computer and come play a game with us till the storm passes." Said luke picking me up and sitting me on the couch. "What game does everyone want to play?" Asked luke. "Poker." I said smiling. "Peter and I need.. to go... wash a pig." Said Carter grabbing peter and practically running away. "Ok, less players means more chances I win." Laughed ben. "You sound a little to confident." I said dealing the cards. We played a couple rounds till I drained luke and newt of their money. "Good luck ben, shes good." Said luke going to the kitchen to get a soda. "Oh I dont need luck." He said flipping over his cards. I flipped mine and smiled "I beat you and get the pot." "That's why peter and I left when we did. She already drained us of our money and we dont even know why she needs the money." Said carter.
"I'm going to go check on blue." I said getting up and walking to my room. "How are you doing my poor baby?" I said petting his head. I heard the floor creek outside my door. "Who's there?" I asked. "Just me." Said luke walking in. "Oh this is the famous blue I've heard about." He laughed petting blue. "Can you hold him still so i can change the bandages?" I asked. Luke held blue still while I changed the bandage on his side. "Hold on that looks like a cut from a 2inch blade on a pocketknife." He said looking at the cut. "2 inch pocket knife balde. I'll see if we can get a match." I said after we finished changing blues bandages.
I did a search for pocketknife as Carter got the ship prepped to leave. "Hold on to something it might get a little rocky." Said Carter. We all grabbed onto the main frame table. The ship shook and we took off then landed. "We're here." Said peter. I grabbed my jacket and ran out the door. "Does she ever wait?" Asked luke grabbing his jacket and chasing after me. I got to the door when I smelled a cologne. "Alice, wait for the rest of us."said luke loudly. I covered his mouth and whispered "someones here and we need to get them." Luke notified the others while I kept guard of the door. "Where is that brat?" Yelled someone. "She should have been here with her parents." Said another voice. The guys got to the house with their ray guns. " everyone on the floor." Yelled ben pointing his ray gun at one of the guys. Luke and Carter got them in handcuffs and into the interrogation room on the ship. I looked around the entire house for even a trace of them. I grabbed our family picture and went to my room, I saw my bed room smashed to pieces. I fell to my knees crying, i couldnt keep from crying any longer. I heard footsteps behind me but I didnt care I wanted to see my family again. "Alice, it's all going to be ok. I promise." Said luke hugging me. I collapsed in his arms crying, the pain worsened every moment they were gone. We got back to the ship and Carter said I could interigante the suspects. "Who are you and why were you in that home?" I asked. "Our names dont matter but we were after a girl, alice wonder I think was her name. She has something that belongs to our employer." One of them said. "Who is your employer?"I yelled getting angrier as the time passed. "You may have heard of him, dr. Robert darko." Said the other guy. I walked out of the room, "robert darko, search the name please Peter. " I asked. He searched the name and the picture that popped up was someone I recognized as my grandfather. I fell to my knees not wanting this to be real. "No no no... this cant be happening." I screamed. Blue ran to me and rubbed his head on me but I pushed him away with my hand. "Alice, what's wrong?" Asked Luke . "That cant be him. Can it? Carter why does he look familiar?" Asked peter. "What's going on with you three?"asked newt. "That's him for sure and I cant wait to get my hands on him." Said Carter rage in his eyes. "Guys, alice needs us more then your revenge on some guy." Yelled ben.
I sat on the floor for about an hour not moving or saying anything. The guys took turns checking on me. I got up and walked outside, walking in the rain made me feel better. I found a park that was empty, I lied on the ground letting the rain hit my face. I calmed my nerves and passed out. When I woke I was lying on the couch with luke's jacket over me, I knew it was his because of the cologne he wears. The guys seemed to be sleeping so I put on the jacket on and went and got coffee. When I got back I went to search for were the guys were. Newt, ben and peter were all sleeping in their rooms. Carter was in a chair in the main room next to the computer. I couldnt find luke till I went to my room, he was curled up with blue on the floor. I threw a blanket on them and sat and drew for a while. "Morning blue, let's go see if alice is awake." Yawned luke getting up. "Oh your already awake." I laughed handing him a coffee. "Thanks." He said drinking the coffee. "Thanks for the jacket." I laughed walking out of the room to wake the others. "Thank you, alice." They all yelled as I walked into the main room.
