Run (Old Version)

Chapter 17

A drip of blood trickles down my cheek as the red flash comes to a halt. Gun shots where blown as I came back to the world around me. Looking over to my side I see Kurt and the car burning gas.

What the hell happened? Did I really make this happen?

I run the nearest gas station, it was a Shell, which I barely was able to see within my blur. There I check the newspapers: Chicago Tribute September 28th, 2015

How is this possible I was in April of 1995? It has been 20 years? But I am no older, I wonder how Mickey's doing. Wait hold on it is 2015! So I guess the world didn't explode or the Y2K bug wasn't a real deal.

I run back to Kurt, my clothes changing to the culture, I have some weird band shirt, that says Fall Out Boy, a new version of Converse, and really tight jeans. Oww!

"Kurt! Kurt..." I yell yet the man in the driver seat was not their and neither was his car. So what the hell do I do now? It is the 21st century I am stuck in some town called Naperville. There is a fountain, a bridge, many shops and restaurants, and at least their is a library.

I rush to the library and look up what has happened in the past 20 years. I look and look there is way too much shit. I hold onto the date May 12th, 1995, and flash back. I blur out and a young boy pokes my shoulder. "Hey wake up, wake up!"

Now he is shaking my arm, "What you want kid?" I say.

"Hi... I am Blake. Are you ok, you have been here quite awhile."

"Yeah that's great... what year is it?"

"Umm...2005, why?" He looks confused as of what was wrong with me.

"So I only went back 10 years?" I whisper louder.

"Back? Are you a time traveler?" Now his eyes are flaring and he was getting loud. I hope no one else is here.

I try to figure out why my powers are acting up. Then I look at my arms, they're rust red and starting to hurt. I fall over and the kid backs away. I think he went to hide, but that is all the memory I had at the time. I believe it was, I really can't remember...
