Matter Of Time

Chapter 2

-we see Ronnie picking up fruit from sokovia-
Seller: Did you find everything you need?
Ronnie: Mhm! Thank you for the dragonfruit and bacon, Спасибо!
Seller: No, Спасибо!
-as Ronnie walks away she hears faint screaming coming from a alleyway-
???: STOP. I'LL GET MY BROTHER ON YOU YOU BITCH!
-Ronnie puts down her groceries near the alley way and walks in-
Ronnie: Hey! Move!
-the people beating the person up turn around, and fear lands on their face as their eyes land on her face-
Ronnie: Tommy?
Tommy: OH! HEY! Finally a somewhat friendly face!
Ronnie: -she turns to the bullies- Идти! Перестань избивать людей, ты ведь знаешь? Статуе это не понравится, не так ли?
???: Мы сожалеем! Мы не знали, что он твой друг! Приносим свои извинения, Сапфировая Ведьма.
Ronnie: Идти! Прежде чем сделать еще одну глупость!
-they leave, and ronnie goes to pick up her bags, then helps Tommy up-
Tommy: What were you saying?
Ronnie: Don’t mind that, What are you doing here?
Tommy: Wilbur dared me.
Ronnie: Wilbur? He’s alive?
Tommy: Jeez, how long have you been isolated?
Ronnie: I’ve lost track.
Tommy: So, why is everybody looking at me? Am I famous or something? I mean, i don’t mind- but, you know what actually i like it.
Ronnie: -she starts dragging Tommy to her car in a parking lot- Tommy. Shut up, for a second. -she looks around a shop and then spots a hat and a coat, she looks to the store clerk- Сколько за это?
Clerk: Оба? Семнадцать долларов.
Ronnie: Я возьму это. Здесь. -she hands him the money, takes the coat and hat and walks away-
Clerk- he takes the money and look through it- Мм, мэм? Это сто долларов, ее больше нет.
~~~~~
-in an parking lot-
Ronnie: -hands Tommy the coat and hat- Put these on, we can only go so far in my car. Then we will have to walk.
Tommy: Could we just take a horse? -putting on the coat and hat-
Ronnie: -pauses, holding the car door open for him- I didn’t think of that- Hurry I've got to get these to Cam and Chorus.
Tommy: -getting in the car- Who?
-she slams the car door and gets in herself-
~~~~~
Ronnie: -walking into the house- Put your coat on the coat hanger, and put the hat somewhere, i don’t care where. -Walking to the kitchen- Kids! I'm home! I brought the dragon fruit!
Cameron: You did?
Chorus: Omg, noooooooo wayyyyyyy! -notices Tommy- Who's that? I don’t remember him-
Ronnie: Your other Uncle, he's from your dad’s side.
Chorus: Really? -runs down the stairs- OMG! HI! What's your name-
Cameron: -dragging him to the couch- Can you just shut your god*mn mouth for a few seconds and not tackle every new person you see? -he throws him on the couch-
Chorus: -laughing- Can you throw me again? That was fun! What's the word for that mom? -getting up-
Ronnie: It's called exhilarating sweetheart, and watch your mouth Cameron!
Cameron: Sorry, I forgot.
Tommy: -confused- Who are these brats-
Cameron: Im not a fucking brat.
Ronnie: CAMERON.
Cameron: Sorry mom- -walking up the stairs-
Tommy: Seriously who are they?
Ronnie: They’re my kids, we call them the twins.
Tommy: -sitting down at the table- What are their names?
-laughing can be heard from upstairs-
Ronnie: Chorus and Cameron.
Tommy: Makes sense, Chorus is an enderman-y name. So, how did the birthing go?
Ronnie: -turns around- What? Oh- no, -laughs-  i didn’t birth them.
Tommy: …...they’re adopted?
Ronnie: Not adopted.
Tommy: THEN HOW?!
Ronnie: They came from the hex. Well, I mean- technically I did birth them, but a long time ago, in the hex- You, heard about the predicament right?
Tommy: Yeah.
Ronnie: That's the answer.
Tommy: -he looks around- This is Phil's old house, I remember staying here. -he smiles to himself-
Ronnie: Yeah, we found your stu-... Tommy. Is there a chance that you might’ve left a disc here?
Tommy: No… I'm pretty sure I don't have any.
Ronnie: -she pauses- Follow me.
-she sets down her stuff and walks upstairs to Tommy’s room, she opens the door with Tommy right behind her-
Ronnie: Cameron, hi, could i have this room for a sec?
Cameron: -writing in a book, he closes his and carries it out the door- Yeah, sure.
-Ronnie walks in, she sits down on the floor searching underneath the bed, she pulls out a disc cover, blows dust off of it, takes this disc out, and holds it up. Tommy’s eyes widen-
Tommy: Which one is this?
Ronnie: Doesn’t have cover art, which one are you missing?
Tommy: None of them, all of them are somewhere else or in an ender chest.
Ronnie: So, where are you going to put it?
Tommy: I’ve got to hide it, now I've got all of them. -he runs downstairs-
Ronnie: Where are you going?
Tommy: -grabs coat and hat- Im leaving, thanks for the stay! -opens the door, walks out, then closes it-
-Ronnie stands there bewildered-
-we pan outside, and see Tommy walking away, but we pan the the forest, and see the Yellow girl, the orange girl, and green man behind the trees-
???Y: It’s okay, Aden! Maybe the note fell out and it's still in the house! -taking the tape off of the green man's face while looking at Aden, the orange girl-
Aden: No! It's still in the case! I wanted Cameron to find it!
???G: Uh, If i may-
???Y & Aden: NO!
???G: Okay-
???Y: Can we make another one?
Aden: Lexi, I don't think you understand. We want to make people happy right? Make them feel safe?
Lexi: Yeah? But maybe-
Aden:: If Tommy finds that note, and reads it, he might think he has some sort of magical powers. Then, he will be waiting for something that’ll never happen, he won’t be happy! We don’t want that, do we?
Lexi: No-
Aden: Exactly. -she looks over to the green man, then her eyes widen a tiny bit- We said we’d take care of Marvin to Sam for a reason right?
Lexi: -nods-
Aden: Let's put him to good use. -she looks to Marvin-
-lexi looks to marvin as well-
Marvin: I don’t like where this is going-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ronnie: Kids! Eat your dragonfruit! I got it for a reason.
-the kids come downstairs-
Chorus: Dragonfruit!
Cameron: We used to eat dragon fruit all the time in the cave. -picks up one-
Ronnie: Well good, you won’t spit it out like Koda did. -she glances at the camera quickly-
Chorus: Koda? -eating dragon fruit- Who’s that?
Ronnie: A friend, we haven't been in touch for a long time, starting to think they’re ignoring me after i… we won’t talk about it. Just... eat your dragonfruit, okay?
Chorus: Okay!
-silence fills the room-
Cameron: -eating dragon fruit-... mom, do you have a dad?
Ronnie: Most people have a dad, honey.
Cameron: What about an uncle?
Ronnie: -she pauses, then speaks up- Yes, i have one.
Cameron: Was he like Carson?
Ronnie: ...No, well- Yes. At first. He was the best uncle we could ever have, loving, kind, he even had his own son. But he took him somewhere else.
Cameron: Where?
Ronnie: We don’t know. We didn’t even know his name let alone see him. We just knew he had one.
Chorus: Surely he brought his son with him when he visited, right?
Ronnie: No, we were told he just left him at home.
Cameron: You said he was nice at first, what do you mean by that?
Ronnie: Well, when my parents died, we were sent to an orphanage. And then Carson got kidnapped. At the time it was robot Carson, when he got kidnapped, the lady running the place kicked me out, said i was just trouble. I went to stay with my Uncle, he lived here.
Chorus: In this house?
Ronnie: No, an underground base. I was so excited, till I found out what he wanted to do with me. I lived there for 1 year and then my dad saved me.
Chorus: Dream saved you! So cool!
Ronnie: Yes, very cool. -she smiles, then goes to put something in the pantry-
Chorus: What happened to him?
Ronnie: Died. Heart Attack.
Cameron: Sorry.
Ronnie: Don’t worry. Was a dick anyways.
Cameron: Language.
Ronnie: Okay. -she turns around and puts her hands on her hips-
Chorus: Mom!!! It's 9!!!!
Ronnie: Alright, get to bed, I'll get you guys some water.
-as the boys rush upstairs, Ronnie goes to the sink to get some water, as she carries the cups past a window, we can see Lexi and Aden practice-fighting, Ronnie stops in her tracks and backs up to look out the window, nobody is there. She looks to the stairs, bewildered, then she walks up them-
-in cameron’s bedroom-
Ronnie: Alright, water for one! -she places the water down-
Cameron: -reading a book- Thanks mom.
Ronnie: No problem! -she begins to walk out-
Cameron: Mom?
Ronnie: Hm? -she turns around-
Cameron: You think we will ever see your uncle again?
Ronnie: -she pauses- Y’know, -she walks over to his bed- I really, really, hope not.
Cameron: What did he do to you? -his eyes glow orange, red almost-
Ronnie: -doesn't notice- He extracted my blood to make enhanced potions. Once, he even took me to a big facility and tested me on the same stone that gave me this. -she holds up a orb of blue magic in her palm-
Cameron: Same one?
Ronnie: Same one.
-long pause-
Ronnie: Well! -she pats her legs- Better go give this to Chorus! She picks up the water-
Cameron: Good night mom.
Ronnie: Goodnight honey. Sleep well.
-as she walks out, cameron slaps the bed-
Cameron: She's gone.
-aden comes out from under the bed-
Aden: UGH, what do you KEEP under here? -she holds up a dirty sock- Ew, whats my boot touching-
Cameron: That's not my stuff, it's Tommy’s.
Aden: Really needs to learn how to clean-
