Chapter Twenty-Nine || Meant to Be

Prologue: A different perspective from the eyes of Lorraine and Biff in an alternative universe.

November 12th, 1955

"Yes you will!" Biff had screamed after Lorraine. Biff, in all sense of the word, was a creep. He pointed a meaty, angry, fat finger. "It's meant to be! I'm going to marry you someday, Lorraine. Someday you'll be my wife!" This sentiment sent chills down Marty's spine alone. Older Biff, meanwhile, had chuckled at his past, younger self. He sounded so... desperate. It was funny, even. But old Biff had a plan. That very day, old Biff handed younger Biff a sports book.

From the future.

It was a sports almanac, to be specific. Except it wasn't any sports almanac... it was from the year 2015. Greys Sports Almanac, it read. It contained a plethora of knowledge, all that would turn Tannen from an average Hill Valley citizen to a ruthless dictator overnight. Old Biff smiled to himself— the night would be absolutely perfect!

Years and years had passed, but slowly and surely did Biff began to make a fortune. He was nicknamed as the luckiest man on earth, making over 18 winning streaks in a row. He officially made his first million over night at a horse race in 1958. Not to a surprise, the answers within the sports almanac were correct. And they would be correct every single time.

With his money made, came power. And Biff knewHow he could used to this advantage. Particularly, his mind scurried to George McFly. As much as he hated to admit it, he was jealous of the man. He had been decked out in high school, the same night he had been given the book, and ever since then George won and got the girl. George was also a successful writer and not a pushover anymore, which Biff was admittedly surprised with. A deep part of him despised McFly— he was always so successful, and never let anything stood in his way, something Biff felt he lacked.

But, once time passed, Biff became very rich. It was at this point in 1973 that Biff had full control over the police force, as well as being involved in some robberies and crimes. And the police couldn't do anything, either— after all, he was Biff Tannen, the most powerful man in Hill Valley. So with that, Biff's pent up frustrations lead to the brutal and horrific tragedy of George McFly's death. He was shot with the same revolver Marty later was, and to the future could the police ever find that bullet. Admittedly, there was quite a bit of fraud and bribing done, so the police were less adamant to search for Biff's bullet. Biff had gotten away with things once more.

Since George McFly was killed, that meant two things to Biff. Number one was that Biff now had control on George's company and could profit off of it. This would only enable to further enrich Biff's successes. Number two meant that now, since George was gone, Lorraine would finally be his girl. This was ultimately one of his motives behind the death of George McFly. Biff had moved on from woman to woman in the past, but none of them could ever be fresh and sweet Lorraine. After bribing her in with millions of dollars and threats to her family, Lorraine hesitantly gave into marrying Biff. Third times a charm, he had thought to himself while he kissed a Lorraine. Life couldn't be any greater for him.

As for Lorraine, however, things weren't so great. Her family was in trouble— Marty, her youngest, was sent off to a disciplinary boarding school and Swedeland. Linda, Marty's sister, was loaded in credit card debt. Meanwhile, Dave, the eldest, had many probation's on his record. Biff had stopped to use these problems and keep Lorraine in their relationship for it, and as much as Lorraine didn't like Biff, she cared about her kids the most. So she hesitantly agreed to stay in the relationship and help her children out.

Meanwhile, she really missed her husband. It had been 12 years, but it still felt a fresh, new cut deep inside her. Lorraine, injected with implants and cosmetic surgery, had resorted to drinking booze to take her pain away. It would be temporary, at least, and she would do anything to get rid of this horrible feeling in her chest.

But the last straw for her was when Marty had decided to randomly show up and cause havoc again. Marty and his mother were never the kind of people to be on speaking terms, and in this alternative reality Lorraine was rather extremely surprised to see him. Biff was enraged off of the assumption that Marty needed more money, yet found money wasn't a problem at all— it was a sports almanac. Yet, regardless, Lorraine didn't want to deal with this. She told herself the deal with it, and ultimately excepted the faith that she would be with Biff her whole life. She gulped down another sip of liquor, wanting to forget that she became the very thing she despised. But, times were hard, and she needed money for her kids. She didn't like it or necessarily agree with this, but, as Biff always reminded her...

He was her husband, and he deserved their respect...
