The Resistance
Chapter 6
Previous ChapterNext ChapterAt about five twenty everyone had arrived. Wind had called her dad's friend Vinyl to DJ the party. They danced, laughed and had a good time. Just as Wind was getting close to Applespice, her phone rang again. It was the same number from earlier. She just let it ring. After about another hour her phone rang again, and again it was the same strange number. She walked up to Vinyl and asked her to stop the music in case it was her parents.
"Hello?" She answered.
There was just a static noise on the other end. Just as she was about to hang up, a bright flash of light blinded everyone. Once their sight returned the saw a blue English style telephone booth sitting in the middle of the living room.
"What the hell?" Wind said as the doors opened.
A man of about her father's height and build stepped out. He was wearing a brown suit and trench coat and a red tie with an hourglass pin on the lapel. He had shaggy brown hair. A pair of retro 3D glasses adorned his face.
"Who the hell are you?" Wind asked as she moved towards him.
"There's no time for that. All of you have to come with me now." He said as he motioned towards everyone.
"I'm not getting into some strange phone booth with a guy I've never met before." Wind said.
"I will explain later, Wind. Right now, you and your friends need to come with me." He said.
"How do you know my name?" Wind asked.
"I'm a friend of your father's. He sent me here to retrieve you. Your parents are in grave danger." He said.
"My parents?" Wind asked.
"Yes. You need to come with me now, before it's too late." He said.
"Just give me one minute. I have to get something." Wind said as she went to the hall closet and pulled out a long kitana.
She pulled the blade out and examined it. It had her mother's signature cloud and rainbow bolt near the guard of it. She slid the blade back into its sheath.
"Alright. If you say you know my father, I will trust you. But, if you're lying to me, I will strike you down." Wind said.
"Noted. Now, let's go." He said as they all filed into the phone booth.
On the inside, it looked like some kind of spaceship. The guy shut the door behind them and walked over to the control panel. Wind followed him.
"So, who are you and where are my parents?" She asked as he started flicking switches and presses buttons.
"My name is Doctor Whooves. I am an old friend of your father's. As for where you parents are, that's not the proper question to ask." He replied.
"What do you mean, 'not the proper question'?" Wind asked.
"The question you should be asking is, when are your parents located." He replied.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Wind asked.
"Okay, let me explain. Your parents were kidnapped by a time traveling villain who I've been tracking for years. She finally managed to slip past me and he took your parents into the future. One that she rules." He said.
"But, why would she kidnap them?" Wind asked.
"Because. In our time line, with your parents assistance, I was able to banish her to an alternate dimension that she would never escape from. That is why it was so urgent for us to leave so soon. She would be there to take over at any time." He replied.
Wind sat down in a chair that was sitting next to the control panel.
