Thomas was at school waiting for Lily to arrive but there was no sign of her then the bell rang out so Thomas started to walk to line up when a stone hit him, he turned to see a 35 year old man behind him. Thomas walked over, sacred that the man might hurt him but the man said
“Tom don’t worry, I’m you”
The man held up a Red-Rock Sword to prove that he was who he said he was.
“Okay but why are you here now?” asked Thomas
“No time to explain, we need to go” replied 35 year old Thomas that’s when Dr Brainstorm from Thomas’s time came driving through the fence and the whole school went silent, Mr Cookdoo ran over to Dr Brainstorm.
“Dr what’s wrong” asked Mr Cookdoo
“I’ve picked up a time rip here at this location” replied Dr Brainstorm

Everybody looked at each other then started to laugh at Dr Brainstorm everyone but Mr Cookdoo and the two Thomas’s, that’s when the 35 year old Thomas shouted
“ENOUGH!!!”
Everyone looked at him and fell silent, until someone said
“And who may you be” the person who spoke was Derick Lantock.
35 year old Thomas looked at everyone then said
“I am Thomas Laurence Richard Claydon from the year 2037”
“Yeah right” laughed Olivia Jackton
35 year old Thomas sighed, sword held tight in his right hand, looked at everyone then started saying
“I know everyone here, Derick was a bully that liked taking peoples stuff but he never told anyone that he was bullied by his father..”
Everyone looked at Derick he was nodding then said
“It’s true it’s all true my father is horrible to me but the only one I’ve ever told was..”
“... Olivia has a big crush on Ethan Claydon, even though his turned evil, she likes a bad boy...” 35 Thomas carried on
“That’s true too, I’ve always found Ethan lovely, even if his now evil but no one knew but…” said Olivia
“...and finely Mr Cookdoo has wanted to propose to Miss Rinhand for two weeks until he got the courage to do it yesterday in front of the whole school” finished 35 year old Thomas
“That’s right but the only person I told that I wanted to was…” said Mr Cookdoo
Thomas stood on top of the car and said
“The only person you ever told your secrets to was, ME!!”

Everyone was shocked that a future Thomas was standing in the playground of the school.
“What’s going on here anyway” said Mr Cookdoo
“No time to explain” said 35 year old Thomas. “I need to tell Thomas something about himself”
“Whats that?” asked Thomas
“You are who you are, don’t try change to be the best you can be now, it will come to you when you lest expect it to” replied 35 year old Thomas “and on that note I’ve got to go see you soon everyone”
35 year old Thomas put done a metal pad and disappeared in a flash.
“Remember” whispered future Thomas as he disappeared

Thomas looked at the place were his future self had been moments before and decided there and then that he wasn’t going to change what he did to prove to himself that it is needed.
Thomas smiled to himself, as he walked over to the broken fence watching the people in town go by on their day to day business. That’s when it happened a huge explosion in town near Lily’s house. Thomas was pretty sure it was Lily’s house, Thomas’s eye went white he felt angry but controlled anger this time, Thomas pulled out his sword then ran towards the place were the explosion came from.

What he found was upsetting the street where Lily’s house is was in ruin people hurt on the floor among them was Lily’s parents but no sign of Lily herself until Thomas noticed her. She was tied up in a chair with four people behind her, the people were, Ethan, Elia, Dr Pickle and a boy Thomas had never seen before his eyes weren’t red but he was wearing a helmet.
Thomas know it was a trap so he did the unexpected he turned to leave but what he was doing was communicating with his 16 year old self by thinking.

“Tom” screamed Lily “Help me”
“Shut up he stands no chance” shouted Dr Pickle slapping Lily
Thomas turned back round then said
“You might want to take a step back”
“You can’t tell us what to do” said Ethan
Suddenly a portal opened and 16 year old Thomas jumped through followed by 21 and 35 year old Thomas’s.
“What the” shouted Dr Pickle
That’s when Thomas ran at Ethan and court him off guard, Thomas flew in the air still holding Ethan and started to fight his own brother they smashed into everything on the street as they thought until the boy Thomas didn’t know grabbed Thomas and slammed him into the floor Thomas then saw the helmet was a controlling cap, so Thomas grabbed his sword and broke the helmet off of him he let go of Thomas then turned to Dr Pickle he had anger in his eyes
“Now, now Craig, don’t get mad” said Dr Pickle stuttering
Craig ran at Dr Pickle and with force he punched him into Ethan who went into Elia and then into a wall where the three older Thomas’s lurched them into the air were Thomas then kicked them into the far distance.

Thomas ran to Lily and untied her, she hugged him as his eye went back to normal, he turned to his older selves and said
“Thank you for remembering”
“You’re welcome mini me” said 35 year old Thomas going back into the portal with the other two Thomas’s.

Thomas looked at the street and then with his magic he repaired the whole street back to its original self. Thomas then said
“Let’s celebrate at the Lab tonight”
“Sounds good” said Lily
Thomas turned to Craig and asked
“Will you join Me and my Team?”
“Really you want my help” he replied
“Of course I would” said Thomas
“Okay then I’ll join you” said Craig “I’ll see you later then for that party” walking away towards town.
“Okay see you later” said Thomas
