It was a blurry moment. I had no idea who I was, and everything was just a fuzz. There was no sound, no light, and nothing around me. I felt like I was unborn, I was in the darkness, to far in time that the Bad Wolf took over. It was an empty space, I couldn't move, but then it hit me.

It was not a smack of reawakening, it was a literal hand from the kid. "Blake! That hurt, what's wrong with you?"

"Sorry," he said with his hands in his lap, kneeling on the ground looking at me with a begging look a puppy would give you, "It is just I thought you were dead for a moment."

"Dead? Why would I be dead? I mean it is like you said, I time traveled, okay?" I was looking at him trying to keep quiet and make sure he didn't scurry off. I look back at my hands, they were still trembling and red. At least it was the scorching pain of the lava flow anymore, it was just a sting.

"Your arms glow too?" Blake asked, making it seem like he seen powers before.

"Umm, sure," I say confused. "Who else do you know that has glowing hands?"

"Well my trainer, Mr. Mero, said there was a girl once who could do this, but she disappeared from his timeline."

Mero??? I think to myself, does this kid know Mickey?  How could it be so, if I wasn't in the timeline then how did I appear in the future the same and haven't ran into myself? I need answers, I need time to go back, and I need an ice pack.

"Miss, are you okay?" Blake looks at me and frowns.

"Yeah, umm, Blake... Can you maybe lead me to Chicago?"

"Haha, where's that?" He said chuckling, "Welcome to New York."

How did I appear in New York from just time traveling, aren't I supposed to stay in the same place. I must have used to many powers. Am I just dreaming? I pinch myself and try to wake up in the hospital, please work, please work! "Please work now!" I scream out loud, and look at Blake.

He turns orange and dissolves into light, and so does the rest of the library. The books spill out words, they surround me with dates and place. I swim through the empty void and touch two different spots. Chicago, September 2nd, 1995...

I lose more of the memory, and all I see is PHiX in the blue light. There was nothing, absolutely nothing. I couldn't move, just those letters where showing. Was I the birth of something new? Was this what happened when you interact with someone not from your timeline? Why were my arms cold. What happened to my red streak?
