Two and the Last Year on Earth ✓ [humor, sci-fi, romance]

Act 29: Mission Completed!

It was time. Everyone was wandering around in the Ruined Lands, waiting for Two Three to arrive. Two, Jarid, Genji, and Dr. Lorkhead arrived at the lands in the Fasta-Pasta Noodle Speeder with, of course, Dr. Lorkhead driving.

Two checked her neckwatch. She had fifteen minutes or so before the Travelnywhere Machine located her and zapped her back to her time. She had decided to use its newly upgrade teleporting system. It could only stall for fifteen minutes, but that was just enough.

Two stood atop the boulder with all members of Two Three by her side and with a Speech Amplifier on her head. Invented by Dr. Lorkhead, of course.

"Greetings! I am Two of Two Three, many of you might know me, some of you might be unsure, but I, and Jarid here and Dr. Lorkhead, and later Genji have been overseeing your happiness and reviving these lands. Two Three has combated many strange phenomena like talking Eagles and moving trees, Teddy Bear robots, or merpeople, but we have overcome them all and all for you, and here, I will say two things."

She took a deep breath. "I am leaving."

Several murmurs erupted from the audience and from Jarid and Dr. Lorkhead. Genji remained without emotion.

"I, Two, am leaving and giving my leader position of Two Three to my best friend Jarid. Jarid, will you take this position and keep Two Three alive and never forget what we stand for?"

Jarid nodded. "Yeah, I will," he said, his voice amplified through his own Speech Amplifier. "But why are you leaving? For good?"

Two nodded. "Promise me first. Promise me you will never forget what we stand for." She held out her hand and Jarid took it without hesitation. She knew she could count on him.

"Fun and creativity. Happiness and joy. Revival of home!" he said. Several people clapped, but most were still confused.

Two smiled. "I knew I could count on you," she told him. Then she tapped her Rubick's Cube and began to transform. She did it slowly as she spoke. "I have lied to you all. I'm not human. I'm actually a Stellian from a faraway future planet called Stellagaza. I don't even belong in this time. Your time is the past for me. I guess you could call me an alien time traveler." She gave a little laugh and fully transformed.

"I came here on a mission to revive Creativity in humans. I'm an agent and now captain. Captain Two of Stellagaza," she said, formally introducing herself in her true form.

As the AERA7-0 residents gaped at the sight of her, she took out the green vial. "Genji here has forgotten his roots, but he was kidnapped and taken here as the weirdest punishment ever for trying to do the right thing. But I fixed everything, and this green vial has all his memories and will give him his wings. Take this and come with me. Come home with me, Genji."

Genji didn't hesitate. He drank the liquid and his Rubick's Cube glowed.

"Ooh! It's a Rubick's Cube!" Jarid said. "The same tattoo on your wrist, Two!"

"What?" Two blinked her eyes at him.

Jarid sniggered. "I saw it once, but you hid it, so I guessed you wouldn't want to talk about it, or you would tell me what it was in your own time. But I only thought you were ashamed of a tattoo."

"What's a tattoo?" came Pony's voice. She was holding up her camera standing with the other Cookie and Juice Filmers.

"It's not a tattoo. It's a marking. Because it looks like a Rubick's Cube, we do call it that, but it's just our powers," Two explained. In that time, Genji transformed. He had minty green skin and dark green eyes. His wings where a gradient of light blue and light green.
