Wilbur POV

    It's been about 4 days since Phil and I went to talk to Bad. I've had a few more visions here and there but they didn't give me any more information. I tried talking to Quackity again but he would talk to me. The whole interaction was kinda weird. He was wearing a different outfit than usual and he wouldn't talk to me. For now I'm just putting it off as him being tired from the elections.

    Tallulah and I are currently at Phil and Chayanne's house. The two kids are murmuring together while Phil and I create a new plan for getting Quackity on our side. There was some knocking on the door so Phil went to answer it. He got to talking with whoever was there so I just stayed sitting on Phil's bed. I heard a coin drop on the floor and started getting dizzy. It's happened again. A new vision. The next thing I knew, it was dark.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I opened my eyes to see Quackity picking up something. He was wearing a white button up shirt with a pair of nice black pants and some black suspenders.

    "Sorry about that, I accidentally dropped one of the coins," Quackity said as he stood up. I could now see a scar on his face that ran from just below his mouth to right above his eyebrow.

    "It's all good," I told him.

    "Anyway let's continue the tour yeah?" He said as he walked away. I quickly followed him as I didn't want to get lost.

    Quackity was pointing out buildings here and there. I saw a younger boy, probably around Tommy's age, in a purple suit standing by a building. What really stood out were the glowing purple antennas sticking out of his sandy blonde hair. The kid was talking with a creeper hybrid that wore some seriously strong armor and a golden crown. My thoughts were interrupted by a rather hyper voice.

    "Dap me up!" I turned to see a man that looked and sounded like Charlie except for the bits of green slime on his outfit.

    "Oh my gosh," I heard Quackity mutter before he spoke up. "Wilbur this is Charlie Slimecicle. Charlie this is Wil-"

    "Wilbur Soot from L'Manburg," Charlie finished for him.

    "Yeah.." Quackity said. He seemed confused but also like he was used to Charlie's shenanigans.

    Charlie followed us as we continued the tour. Quackity brought us to a building that looked like it was still being built. A man that looked like Foolish walked out and started talking to Quackity.

    "Hey Quackity. The building is almost done," he informed Quackity.

    "Hello Foolish. That's good. Let's try and get it done this week, yeah?" Quackity said while giving him a stern look.

    "Yep! I'll get it done," Foolish said, the forced cheerfulness obvious in his voice.

    Quackity began walking again so I followed; Charlie stayed with Foolish. We got to a giant tower and went up to the top. The view was actually really pretty.  I heard a voice behind me and turned to find Tommy and Quackity arguing about something. 

    "Break it up you two," I said as I walked up to them.

    "He's being a prick though!" Tommy complained.  "Besides, you need to wake up."

    I was about to ask what he was talking about but I heard a coin hit the floor before I could.  The next thing I knew, everything went black.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I woke up to find things just as they were when I blacked out earlier.  The only difference is that Phil was no longer talking to someone at the door.  Instead Missa was inside and the two were talking.  I got up and headed to the door while telling Phil I'd be right back.  He nodded and said he'd watch Tallulah for me.  I thanked him and walked outside.

    I pulled out my communicator and messaged Foolish and Charlie to meet me at mine and Tallulah's house.  I received two messages after a few minutes of walking.

Foolish: be right there.  Can I bring Leonarda?
Charlie: be there in a minute

    I messaged Foolish back and told him he could bring his child with him.  I didn't mind seeing Leo.  She's a good kid.  Kinda chaotic but it brightens up the people around her. 

    I got to the house and sat down on the dock by the pond while I waited for the others to get here.  After about 5 minutes, Charlie, Foolish and Leo showed up.

    "Hey Wilbur!" They said in unison.

    "Hey guys!" I greeted back.  "Can we talk about something?"

    "Sure, what's up?" Foolish asked.

    I gave told them the same thing I've told Quackity and Bad.  They were quiet for a minute before looking at each other.  They burst into laughter not even a second later.

    "That would make a great story!" Foolish said after he calmed down.

    "Yeah," Charlie chimed in, "maybe you could turn it into a book and publish it.  You could call it 'This Can't Be Real' or something like that."

    "Let us know when you start writing it," Foolish said as he and Leo left.  Charlie soon followed.

    Great.  Not only do they not believe me but they also thing it'll make a good book.  I mean how dumb is that?  Turning the events I'm going through into a book.  That would just be stupid.  I decided to head back to Phil's and maybe spend the night there.

Foolish POV

    I said goodbye to Charlie and we went our separate ways.  As Leonarda and I were walking, I got to thinking.

    What if Wilbur is right about the whole alternate reality thing?  I would know about that though wouldn't I?  I could always ask XD about it tonight.  I think I'll do that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "XD we need to talk," I said into the night sky after putting Leonarda to sleep.  I was suddenly teleported to an open area.  It was beautiful, the ground I was standing on looked similar to a Totem.  I was surrounded by water and the sky was a beautiful mixture of blue, gold, and green.  In front of me was none other than Dream XD himself.

    "What is it Foolish?  You know I'm a very busy person," he stated.

    "Well I need some information.  Wilbur came to me saying that he thinks there's an alternate reality out there and I'm 99.99% sure that if there was, I would know about it.  So what's going on?" I asked him.

    "Short and to the point.  Thank you," his voice echoed, "Wilbur is wrong.  He is not seeing alternate reality but rather a past life.  A past life that you don't seem to remember.  Why that is, I'm not sure."

    "Okay.  So if I don't remember it, then how do I get those memories back or tell Wilbur that without any proof?" I asked him.

    "I'll send someone your way.  Someone whom you once knew.  Someone that has dealt with and overcame memory issues," XD told me.

    I could feel myself slipping from this beautiful world back into my world.  I decided to ask my brother one last question, "Who is this person?"

    Just as I faded from the world I heard his response, "Let's just say he has a knack for messing with time."
