“Give up while you can,” Jay said as he held Silver Ny’s broken helmet fragment.
“Who do you think you are? Is this a Paradox?” Timemaster spoke aloud.
“Call us the ‘Paradox’ League, by the way the name’s Bluejay, Jay Lemer,” Jay spoke with confidence as he approached Timemaster.
“Now that’s a team name I can get by with!” Luis hollered excitedly.
As Jay spoke with confidence, showing his trustworthiness, Trixie’s strand of hair gained a new color which was teal blue, since her hair aura could detect deep down if her heart really trusted Jay or not. Another strand of her hair color appeared, which was pastel navy blue, that represented Jack, after the thoughts she had on him saving her, helping with her family and friends in this dangerous situation. Trixie lost track of how many colorful pastel strands she now had, it was over 15 colors for sure, probably 20+, she thought.
“No, it can’t be,” Timemaster spoke aloud as he was shocked to learn his last name. “LEMER! You have meddled with Kimon’s, Silver Ny’s and my plans!”
The nine teens ran towards Timemaster, but he unleashed a wave of purple darkish essence towards them, that was translucent, which froze them in a Time Freeze. The powers and abilities the team had, suddenly froze in time, except for Jay who was resistant to any time-like powers. Timemaster ran towards the exit of the Command Centre, smacking Jay out of his way.
“OH NO, you don’t!” Jay screamed in anger while the rest of the league was frozen in time, as he chased after Timemaster within hallways of the Planetarium Traveler X1. Unknowingly, with the league frozen in time, with Jay in the hallway, the mothership entered the Exosphere of space, heading between the two Obelisk like towers that Sandy encountered before not too long ago. A mere 50 seconds later, the team unfroze out of the time stop sequence.
“Where the hell is, he?” Luis spoke aloud. “Where is Jay?”
“He used his time abilities again,” Aiden spoke. “But how come Jay was not affected by it?”
“Jay is resistant to time related abilities,” Jack said. “He possesses time travel abilities.”
“Why couldn’t Jay time travel to prevent this event from happening? Is he a Stellar-Being?” Veronica asked curiously.
“His abilities are complicated,” Jack spoke aloud. “He can only time travel to any year based on ‘probability’, meaning it would take him hundreds of tries to time travel back to 2999 if at all. Time-traveling would dehydrate him more and more, as he keeps using his powers. But there is no point, since Timemaster brought the invasion to 2021, meaning it creates a new timeline of my 2999 unless we stop this invasion. Unfortunately, it is an exceedingly long story.”
“We gotta find them both!” Trixie spoke aloud as she ran with her superspeed into the hallways.
“Trixie, wait!” Roxanne and Veronica spoke out loud, as the rest of the League followed her, going down the hallways of the Planetarium Traveler but Jack saw the Bayview windows of the Command Centre as Sandra stayed behind along with Luis and Allison. Jack looked out at the Bayview windows, with nothing but the black cosmos, stars igniting within the universe. The view was extraordinary and beautiful with the Obelisk towers also in their panoramic view.
“That’s not good,” Jack spoke aloud.
“We’re in space!” Luis screamed in excitement.
“No,” Jack intervened, as he pointed out towards the Obelisk I tower in space. “That!”
“I’ve seen that thing,” Sandra said. “Do you have any idea what the heck that thing is?”
“It is Obelisk I or known as Tower of Defense,” Jack explained. “I know where Timemaster is heading to. This is not good, we got to stop him before its too late.”
“What’s going on?” Allison spoke aloud.
“Timemaster must have a backup time machine somewhere in that ship,” Jack explained as he pressed buttons in the mothership, having the HUD interface displayed. “I’ve seen that ship before, where Silver Ny experimented with it, time traveling it into other timelines, also I’m sure that’s how these Obelisk I towers got into your timeline.”
“You sure, you know how to fly this thing?” Sandra spoke. “You’re under 18!”
“This!” Jack showed the key drive that he was holding. “Got it all installed already into my brain, know how to pilot a lot of Travelers and other air vehicles out there. Emergency Pilot Command Console Drive, known as EPCCD.”
“What?” Allison spoke in shock.
“No way!” Luis spoke in amazement. “Does everyone have access to this in the future?”
“No, authorized personnel only,” Jack explained as he maneuvered the mothership out of autopilot mode, that Timemaster had left on. “Unless it’s a civilian with a high enough IQ to use it for emergency landings.”
“I honestly wish I lived in the future,” Luis spoke aloud. “How the hell did you get it?”
“Snatched it off of Morales’ neck,” Jack said happily. “From the Freighter.”
“You killed him?” Allison exclaimed. “Got any intel by him?”
“No,” Jack sighed. “I warned him about the Freighter exploding, but he did not listen. Unfortunately, he had many secrets in that mind of his, I’m certain.”
As Jack maneuvered the mothership towards one of the Obelisk I, he prepped the laser beam of the ship to destroy it. As Jack aimed the laser powered artillery towards one of the Obelisk I towers, a ‘Fire’ prompt message appeared on the holographic HUD. Luis looked at Jack in excitement.
“Wanna
