Rewind the Past (Futureshipping)

Chapter 8

They pulled away, gasping for air. Their lips still connected with a string of saliva. The Time Master stared into Borg's eyes, blushing softly. "T...tu eres lo mejor que me ha pasado."
 Acronix whispered to the inventor. "Sorry...what?" Borg asked confused, rising an eyebrow.
"Oh, sorry. I've said that...you're the best thing that ever happened to me." He explained. "Me and Krux are...latino american. We only spoke spanish, when we were kids. And we sometimes speak spanish together, but...it's rare." Borg tucked a lock of hair behind Acronix's ear and rose his face, gently grabbing his chin. "You're handsome, Nix." He said, leaving another kiss on his lips. He played with Acronix's goatee. "How came that you became a villain?" Borg asked. Acronix smile died. He bit his bottom lip and looked away.
"I...I don't know.- He murmured. -It...was Krux's idea. He always wanted to rule over the others. And...when he comes out with an idea, he doesn't stop." Cyrus tilted his head to the side and took Acronix's hand in his, when he saw that he was about to cry again. His eyes were glossy and he was biting hard on his lip. He had opened a small cut on the flesh. The inventor wiped a little drop of blood from the Time Twin's mouth. "Why didn't you tell him that you thought it was a bad idea and that you didn't want to follow him?" The long haired man rose his hand to his neck and swallowed. How could he forget the consequences. He could still feel the tight grip of Krux's hand around his throat. The feeling of being slammed against the wall was hideous. He shook and felt Cyrus arms holding him.
"I did tell him.- He answered, in a shaking voice. -But...everytime I tell him he...overreact."

"Overreact?"
"He has the habit to rise his hands on me?"
"Really? I thought he loved you, you're his twin!"

Acronix shrugged his shoulder and looked away. "He changed." He simply said, leaning his head on Cyrus' chest. The inventor took off his kimono, wrapping it around the youngest man. He ran his hands up and down Acronix's back. The young twin wrapped his arm around Borg's neck. The inventor smiled and stroked his partner's hair. 
"Oh, no!" Acronix's head snapped up and he set himself free from Borg's hug. "What? What happened?" The inventor asked, confused, seeing Nix grabbing his trousers and jumping up. His leg gave him a flash of pain and he dropped on the floor. "Nix, what happened? Hey!" He grabbed him, under his arms, dragging him up. He managed to sit back on the wheelchair and helped him exit the room. The young twin was still wearing Borg's kimono, the belt untied. His chest exposed. The bandage was spotted in blood. "Acronix, your bandage! You have to change it!" Borg noticed. "I...don't have time...I have to warn Wu." He gritted his teeth and tightened the grip around the arm of the inventor. "Slow down. Don't force your body, too hard!"

Master Wu was sitting in his room. He was meditating, legs crossed. He had his eyes closed and his hands, placed on the knees. The silver smoke of the incense, was filling the room. He rose his head and opened his eyes, when Acronix and Cyrus opened the door. He took him a few moments to understand tha he wasn't resting. "What are you doing here?! You are supposed to be..." The younger interrupted him. "Listen to me, for once...- He pleaded. -My brother is planning to destroy you and your students!" Wu jumped up, grabbing the staff. "When? Where?" Acronix shook his head.
"I don't know but he got...allies.- He took few deep breaths and went on. -He brought them back. I don't know how he did it...but...but..." His legs ceded and Wu grabbed him, holding him up. "Who is back?" The Master of Time swallowed, before answer the Master. "Our old General and Commanders." Wu nodded fast and ran outside. "Students!" The Elemental Masters stopped whatever they were doing, to listen to their Master. They all frowned, seeing Borg and Acronix, behind Wu. "Acronix, please, tell us." The Time Master nodded. But it was hard to speak or even think. His whole body was aching, despite the healing. Wu helped him sit on the wood steps. "My brother had...brought our old Commanders and General back.- He explained. -I don't know how he did it, he didn't tell me anything." Lloyd stepped forward. "Your old General? But I thought you had three Commanders!" He exclaimed.
