S A M M I E

My breath hitched in my throat once i realized the picture of OA's wife, was indeed a picture of me. "We have a wife?..and it's Sammie?.." Adam trailed off, staring at OA threw the door. "No..we do not have a wife anymore.." OA trailed off, as tears brimmed my eyes. "W-What happened to me.." I asked, my voice breaking as i could see the pain in both Adams' faces. OA got up, grabbing his bag from the pharmacy and walking off. Adam stumbled back slightly, lowering the picture of older me down. Adam unlocked the door, and I followed OA out. Adam hesitated for a moment, before stepping out and following aswell. OA soon disappeared, we weren't sure where he went, but while he was gone, i got Adams bloody nose cleaned up.

"You okay?" Adam asked me, as i wiped the blood from above his lip away. My thumb trailed over his lip, pulling his lower lip down slightly. I cleared my throat, realizing how close we were and backed up. "Yea,yea" i chocked out, turning around. "Sammie" Adam said, getting up and standing behind me. I leaned my body over the sink, looking down into it. I felt Adams presences behind me, as i fought the tears back. "Sam" Adam said, as his hot breath hit the back of my neck, and his arms wrapped around my waist, pulling me to face him. Tears fell down my face as i laid my head on his chest, silently crying into him. His arms still around my waist, he rubbed my lower back slightly. "What do you think happened to me?" I asked Adam, he shook his head. "I don't know, but we'll find out" Adam said, his voice soothing me. Before i knew it, my eyes were getting heavy and i fell asleep in Adams arms.

***

Both Adams sat at the kitchen island as i stood on the other side, watching them. They silently ate their food, as i was drinking a cup of water. It was tense, i could tell easily. "So you came back for your wife, aka Sammie?" Adam asked, breaking the silence. "We're not getting into that." OA said. "Hey she's my wife too" Adam said, as he looked up at me. A blush crept onto my face as i had realized, the boy i have been crushing on for the longest time.. was my husband. "You know what? we should get into that" OA said, looking at me aswell. "Thank you" Adam breathed out. "Met in the academy" OA began, taking another bite from his eggs. "She was 20 minutes late, to the wrong classroom, in the wrong building" OA said again, as Adam smirked at me. "Sounds like sammie" Adam laughed out, as i giggled at his joke.

"i offered to walk her to the right one, and..." OA trailed off. "man, i was all in before we even made it outside" OA said, looking down. "A couple years ago, she didn't come back from a jump" OA said, causing my body to stiffen. Am i dead? i asked myself. "They told me her jet broke up on reentry, but she was the best pilot in the program" OA said, continuing to eat his eggs. "She wrote the book on reentry. didn't make sense" OA said, glancing at me. "and you were trying to get to 2018, cause that's where I went before?" I asked OA, as i felt my heart quicken. OA sighed a quick "yea". "What was she doing there?" Adam asked, as i remembered something. "I don't know.." OA said, looking at me. "I don't know either" I lied, having a mild idea on why i went back to 2018. "They changed the jump logs" OA said. "Somebody was hidin somethin" OA said again.

"Maybe she saw something Sorian didn't want her to see" OA said, more to himself than us. "Wait, Sorian. Maya Sorian, dads partner?" Adam asked, as OA took a sip of his coffee. "She was always so nice to me" Adam said, confused. OA hummed, setting his coffee cup down. "Yea, trust me. She's no friend" OA said, getting up to put his plate in the sink. "Nope" i breathed out. "After dad died, she got rich off his tech" OA said. "bought all the right people" Older Adam stated, going over to his younger self, grabbing his cup of coffee. "next thing you know" OA said, going back over to the sink. "she has exclusive control over the most valuable resource on earth" OA said, filling his cup up with coffee. "time?" I asked, OA nodded.

"wait a minute. you're saying dad invented time travel?" Adam asked. OA said a quick "yea" as he leaned against the counter. "not on purpose" OA said. "the magnetic particle accelerator. Remember that?" OA asked. "He called it the Adam project" I said, remembering the name. "yea or as i like to call it, his favorite child" OA said. "So what happened to me" i said, clearing my throat as OA took a sip of his coffee and Adam kept eating his food. OA hummed. "Well, I think our nice friend Maya had her killed" OA said, as i blinked, not processing the words. "what" adam chocked out. "yeah" oa sighed. "that's why i gotta get back to 2018 as soon as possible" OA said, causing a sigh to escape my body. Atleast he's trying to save me...right?

"the jets almost ready. im just gonna lay low in the shed, i'll heal for a few more days until i can get a clean read and then i'll fly out of both your life's" Oa said. "But going back to save her.." Adam began. "talking to me, us" Adam said, looking at me. "everything you're doing right now to rescue sammie." Adam said, as a eerie noise was heard. OA heard it too, as he set his coffee down. Hawking whined, and looked panicked. The only person not hearing it was Adam. "Your changing the future, that's gotta be against the rules" Adam finished. "You'll feel different when-" OA began, as Adam cut him off. "Thank god were saving her" Adam breathed out. OA grabbed his back and placed it on the counter. "what?" Adam asked, as OA had mumbled something.

OA shushed him, reaching into his pocket. "grab that bag. get ready to run." Oa said, whispering. "why? what's happening?" Adam asked, as he stood up to grab the bag. "we're going that way be ready" Oa pointed to the back door, holding something in his hand as he stared at the door. Adam and I slowly walked towards the back door. Oa threw a glowing ball towards the door, as it was kicked down by these guys in heavy duty suits. Oa ducked down, and the ball exploded the guys. Oa ran towards us, as a whooshing sound was heard and another man appeared next to me, only to be tackled out the window by Oa. Oa began to beat the loving crap out of the guy, as Adam and i stared in shock. "Move!" OA said, as Adam and I ran after him. More guys appeared, and Oa fought them off. A guy appeared from behind Adam and I, causing us to move out of the way as he ran at Oa. One of the guys shocked Oa in the rib, and threw him down to the ground, causing Oa to groan. Adam and I ran over to him, as the guys got up and came towards us. "stay behind me" Oa said. "Don't you do it! Don't you do it, reed!" One of the guys said, pointing a taser stick at oa. "you wanna see something cool?" Oa asked, as a legit lightsaber appeared in his hand.

"that's a lightsaber dude" Adam said, as we smiled. "quiet now" Oa said, as he charged at the men. "time to go, let's go" oa said, as he began to run. Adam and I quickly followed behind. A loud rumble was heard, and Oa stopped in his tracks, slowly turning around. A huge jet appeared. "hello adam" Sorian said from the jet. "reed! don't move!" A man said from in front of us, as OA sighed. "christos, they'll let anyone into the time stream" Oa sighed. Oa slowly began to walk up to 'christos' as Adam and I trailed behind. "who's that" adam asked. "that's christos, we were in the academy together" oa said. "Ah, Sam. You were cute when you were tiny" The man smirked, causing Adam to step in front of me. "he's a decent pilot but a terrible person" Oa said. "he runs security for sorian" oa finished. "ouchie, with the face. did i do that?" Oa asked. "god, i hope the boss lets me kill you" the man smiled. Oa chuckled. "in fairness, though, you did shoot me first" oa said. "on the bright side, your...your face now matches your soul" Oa smiled.

"anyone ever tell you that you talk to much?" the man asked. "all the time" i said, oa quickly cutting me off. "it's come up" oa said. "that's enough" sorian said. "adam, before this goes any further, let's just go home, please" sorian said. "uh..no!" Oa shouted. "just, just no" oa said again. "so your risking your young life, and your wife's young life, over some paranoid delusion that i somehow killed your wife, who's younger self is standing right there?" Sorian asked, as i gulped. "i loved Sam, you were both like family to me" sorian said. "i would never have hurt her, i would have never hurt you" sorian said, directing the last part to me. "i hate that it's come to this" sorian began. "guns" she said, as the guns on her jet powered up. "christos, please escort adam back to 2050" sorian said. The man smiled at Oa. "youre up" oa said. "yea alright, drop the mag-cyl" the man said. "this?" Older Adam asked, holding up the lightsaber. "yea" the man said. The both of them kept agreeing before Oa dropped it on the ground. "wanna start low or go high?" oa asked, leaving me confused.

The man threw a quick punch to Oas face. Then continued to beat the shit out of Older Adam. "Stop! Get off of him!" Adam and I yelled at Christos. All the sudden the jet above us exploded, sending the jet to the side. Older Adam, who was being held down on the ground looked to the direction the explosion came from in awe. Adam and I were still watching Oa, before we turned around. There was a women, holding a grenade launcher, and another holding a gun. "move!" the man yelled to his men, sending them at the women. Adam and I watched the women, not being able to tell who they were. The women ran quickly throughout the woods, doing quick maneuvers to dodge the oncoming bullets. The women than began to fight the men, badass too. Oa grabbed his lightsaber and began to fight Christos, as the women clearly came into sight, my eyes began to water. The two women i were currently watching fight... we're my dead sister... and myself.
