    Time is a fickle thing. One moment you could be sitting their eating breakfast, and the next you could be dead. The reverse is true too. You could have just died, but then a little shock could bring you back again. Time can do the same thing if it wants to.

    If time was an IT and not a thing, could IT think? Would IT have needs? Would IT have wants? Would IT be able to explain what IT's needs and want's are? Or would IT just do instead.

Time is a B.I.T.C.H. A Beautiful Intelligent Tease Causing Headaches.

    I've aged 5 years since I came to this place and I have learned so much. It is a place that is nowhere and everywhere at the same time. I'm not alone here, I'm never alone anymore. I have me, myself, and I to keep me company. And I mean that quite literally. Me looking like my 20 year old self. Myself, meaning my Little side. And then there's I. That one I have yet to understand.

    I have gotten stronger and smarter in my old age. At least that's what I tells me. And I trust I, why shouldn't I trust I? He is part of me, and I would never lie to myself... or to me for that matter. But enough of the jokes for now. It's time... to get serious.

Max's POV

    The second I popped out of the seat that Husky was reaching for, I popped in to our tent. Only I wasn't 15 any more. I walk out of the tent seeing Husky about to brake. I knew he was, because I have seen it already. And I really didn't want to see it again. Let's just say, when my new daddy lost myself, he lost himself too. I plan on making sure that never happened.

    A quick look around told me all I needed to know. Danual was still in his seat. Wolf And Bull were staring at Husky and where I was just at. All three of them were stunned and not moving. As for Husky, he was about to fall to his knees and start crying from the grief of losing me. If I let that happen, there would be no turning back for him.

    I ran to him before he could fall. I was faster then before and I caught him before he fell. I pulled him up and said "Hi daddy. No time for that, Max is just fine, trust me." As soon as I knew he could stand on is own, I backed off. I took a couple paces back so I wouldn't look like a threat to him or the others. Then I waited for them to react. I swear it took them a year to move, but when they did it was fast. Bull came to the front of me between Husky and myself. As for Wolf, he went behind me. I just stood there with my arms at my side letting them get in to position. It would make them feel better if I let them think they could contain me. And so I waited for them. I waited for Husky to turn to me and start asking me about his baby boy. I knew this would happen and I hoped this time it would work out right.

    Husky turned to me as I knew he would. But he didn't start asking questions, he just stood there and stared at me. Then he slowly walked past Bull and strait to me. He put a hand to my face and asked. "Is that you Max?" I couldn't believe he actually recognized me. This has never happened before. All the rest of the times he doubted me. But this time was different. The only thing I did differently this time was to call him daddy instead of Husky. I guess one word can change history.

    I smiled and said. "Yes daddy it's me." Then I was almost taken to the ground by my daddy throwing himself at me to hug me. I hugged him back and was almost squeezed to death. Then we both started crying on each other's shoulders. We were the same hight now. It took a while for him to finally release me and only a moment longer for me to do the same. Then I asked him "How did you know? I thought it would take longer for you to understand what was going on."

    With tears still running down his face, he smiled and said. "A daddy knows his baby boy. You called me daddy and that helped. And your memories helped with with the weird stuff too. But I just knew it had to be you. I'm so sorry I yelled at you I was just so scared. I lost control of myself. And I..." I stopped him. He didn't have to explain, I already knew.
