Day in the Omnitrix ~ S3

Testing 1, 2? ~ 2

(Dry lands, Xlr8 is circling the area at high speeds. Grey matter pulls up in his car. He steps out. The jagged black line across his omnitrix is hidden by cloaking tech. Xlr8 stops)

Xlr8: Sup Grey

Grey matter: Xlr8, what are you doing? This isn't the usual way you do your daily runs 

Xlr8: Switching it up

Grey matter: May I ask why?

Xlr8: Hmm, what experiment of yours does my speed tie into?

Grey matter: (confused) No experiment, just a question

(Xlr8 starts to run in place, slowly getting faster as he goes)

Xlr8: Well, you might think it's dumb, but I'm running a little experiment myself. I'm trying to time travel

Grey matter: (baffled) I'm sorry, what did you say?

Xlr8: Time travel, I am attempting to time travel 

Grey matter: That's what I thought you said, now let me offer this as a rebuttal; Are you fucking insane?

Xlr8: Depends

Grey matter: Why the sudden interest?

Xlr8: Like, I don't really want to go to a specific time, I just want to see if I can do it. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I run fast enough, I might be able to breach the temporal barrier and therefore, be able to time travel.

Grey matter: In theory, yes, but do you know how fast you would have to go in order to do that?

Xlr8: Batshit crazy speeds.

Grey matter: (aggressively) Batshit crazy speeds exactly! Now I have to be honest with you when I tell you that this is a feeble effort. Last time I checked, your top speed was 500 miles per hour, nowhere near fast enough. Jetray has a better chance of doing this 

Xlr8: (defensive) I've gotten faster then that man, and THAT'S why I'm practicing.

Grey matter: NO AMOUNT OF PRACTICE WILL HELP, YOU'RE JUST NOT FAST ENOUGH!

(Silence, Xlr8 stop running in place and starts to contemplate what he's doing)

Grey matter: (in a calm manner) I'm sorry, but that's just how it is 

(Grey matter gets back in his car and drives off. Xlr8 sat there pondering for 2 minutes, then started to circle the field again)

(In Grey matters car, Grey gets a phone call from Feedback)

Feedback: Hey boss, where'd you head off too?

Grey matter: Just making sure the O10 aren't up to anything. Xlr8 is experimenting with time travel

Feedback: What? Is that even...

Grey matter: Possible? No, but you can never be too sure. Time travel is a slippery slope, and Xlr8 is the last person that should be doing it. If we are to carry out our master’s plan, we have to make sure nothing will get in our way. I'm heading back to the hub. Get NRG and Astrodactyl, we need to execute phase one.

Feedback: Yes sir

(He hangs up and then burns off)

(O10 tower, living room. Upgrade is standing at the kitchen table looking at the Disruptor tech, Ripjaws is sitting on the couch with his feet up on the coffee table, watching TV, Diamondhead is attempting to cook, and Wildmutt is chilling in the corner. Rip and Mutt start to smell something off)

Ripjaws: Di, what the fuck are you doing in there?

Diamondhead: Well since Xlr8 isn't here to make us something, someone has to step up.
