APH gets an idea. "I left a video tracker at various locations before the Buster Beetle escapade. It can track objects even when they are ethereal, and it might have caught the moments where Yisui borrowed Schwa's body when he was unconscoius. Let me check." APH brings out a small device, and he presses a button on it. a hologram shows up and relays the scene where Schwa was whacked unconsious by Yorra.

OO: Schwa, you should tell what appears on the hologram, because no one saw you get attacked in the story.

"What! How did--" Schwa stammers as he sees the hologram. It shows everything that happened and more.

In the hologram, Schwa turned the corner of the flaming building and found a giant Buster Beetle staring at him, none other than Yorra. But floating next to it was a transparent, gold-robed girl, a young looking cute girl Schwa recognizes as Yiusi. Schwa never remembered Yiusi being there when he encountered Yorra that time. Schwa's hands flare up with ether.
"It's the Boss Beetle alright. Time to alert the others, then we do battle." Schwa sends a psychic firework into the air to alert APH and Dracoon, then dashes at Yorra and tries an ether-coated fist in the head.

But Yorra is quick. Using his small hands, he grabs and traps Schwa quickly.
"Sorry Schwa, this'll hurt," Yorra says before slamming Schwa onto his shell, flipping over, and spinning in place.

"Ouch, ouch, ouchouchouchouchouch-- *plop* " Schwa says as he plops to the ground. The real Schwa winces at seeing this again, as he lived it already. Yorra stops his attack and backs up, and the transparent Yiusi walks up. They pause for a moment. "That's when we were telepathically talking," the real Schwa comments.

After this, Yiusi emits a flash of white light, and when it clears, Yiusi's gone!
"That's about the time she entered my body," Schwa says. "APH, I had no idea you placed a proximity camera in the city! What are we gonna do with this info, anyway?"

"Can you at least give me a safe point to jump to where I can watch the incident resolve? At least I know who I am trying to get now, but still how could I do it...?"

Star begins to pace while Dracoonx4 almost completely ignored the video still trying to get his to work. Without any luck he turned it off and back on seeing if it would work.

"APH, you heard Star. Do you, like, have one of those cameras that showed what happened RIGHT before I came back to the material plane?" Schwa askes APH.

"It showed what happened before and after what it shows." APH says. "There are also other locations that have a camera, including where most of the incident happened...here is the remote." He gives a handheld RC to Schwa. "You can select the location and time with the buttons. See whatever you want."

Blue walks up to APH, amazed at his technological prowess.

Blue: "Pardon me, but do you mean to say that you have an entire interconencted set of cameras all linked directly to that remote control? That is amazing! Think of the things you could see, the information you could gain! The --"

At this, Red claps a hand around Blue's mouth and pulls him aside, facing APH.

Red: "I think what he's trying to say is good on ya, man. Now then, this ought to be interesting."

"Lets hope it work I have almost finished preparing the best way to go."

Dracoonx4 sighed as he heard the conversation doubting that APH's would work when he was so messed up.

"It better work or we are stuck.."

Star walked over to Schwa trying to get the best look he could at the RC. He had never come across one of these cameras, but they could be used for much more ppurposes then what Blue was thinking.

Schwa stares at the remote. "Hmm... this one is the one, I believe." Schwa presses a button, and a hologram comes up showing what happened right before Yiusi left.

A cute girl in gold robes is facing Dracoon in the sunset.
"You don't understand," Yiusi explains. "The reason I'm leaving is because Yorra has fulfilled his destiny. When The Oracle created me, she gave me one purpose and that was to help Yorra. Now that the Buster Beetles are united, my work is done, forever. Thank you all for supporting me... now I must go. Goodbye!"

Yiusi starts to glow brighter, and brighter... soon, her form is surrounded by a white orb of energy. Then it dissolves, and a figure falls from it and crumples to the ground. It's Schwa. Slowly Schwa opens his eyes, and looks around. Schwa talks for a while with Dracoonx4.

"That's what happened. Does that help?" Schwa askes. He thinks APH should be the one operating the remote, not himself.

"There is only one time I couldeven make an attempt, but it would be hard to do and will take some time. Well here I go wish yourselves luck, because I will be the only one uneffected if I mess up."

Star seems to slowly blink out of exsistance and the next thing he knows he is in the time stream. Surprisingly it was really an endless stream with islands as each decade. Each island has a lake which was the controlling point. On each island every single time possible was available, for that decade, and everything could be controlled from each island. Star jumped on to the closest and looked for the right time and place. He saw his chance and plunged into the lake. He had teleported in a little bit behind Dracoonx4 as to not raise attention, and as soon as the bright light glowed he blinked and became invisable to Dracoonx4. He froze time around him and Yiusi and began to speak.

"Schwa and Dracoonx4 have sent me here to bring you to the future. I can't tell you all the facts, but you must come with me."

Yiusi pauses, and says, "Star, is that really you? I've known of you for quite a while, but... Tell me, why must I come? The Buster Beetles are finally united, and my exsistance is fulfilled, plus these guys want Schwa back, so... Don't you think I should disappear like my prophecy says?"

All of the sudden, back in the present, Schwa disappears in the blink of an eye! One instant he's there, the next he's not. He just... vanished.

"No they arn't Dracoonx4 was right. They begin to rebel against Yorra and they hate him. I don't know the full story, but I will be able to keep the time lines seperate for only a short time. You either need to come now, or not come. I am sorry to rush something like this."

Star was feeling strain at just freezing time in one area, but he continued to do it hoping that they could settle this quickly, but Someone else had sensed this power and began to wonder what could generate it. Dark Pheonix still exsisted in this time and had escaped the time freeze. He began to make his way towards Star as it was a new power and a very strong one. His urge to fight began to increase.

"I think by seperating the time lines I could keep Schwa in both worlds, but it would still be hard."

OCC If you can't predict what is going to happen then I feel sorry for you...

"Okay, I'll go with you," Yiusi suddenly says. "If the beetles aren't really united then my destiny really ISN'T fulfilled. And that makes me mad. I almost died in Schwa's body, for crying out loud! So take me with you. I'm ready whenever you are."

OOC: If Yiusi goes with Star, Origin will have never existed, so the demon wizard would be released again plus Schwa will have never have learned some of the new moves he has. PLUS, the battle with Dracoon, Blue and Schwa won't have existed either, so Tuxydon would have a different body and probably wouldn't have been defeated by Dracoon... Geez, time travel is confusing.

OOC: We could always use DBZ logic and say that when she was taken outside the time stream a new universe was created to fit her possible form. That way, Dark Phoenix could sense the time freeze, escape from it, meet up with Star, and join Yiusi in this universe, and then when they get returned to their own times at the respective places where they left, both universes (ours would just have two Dark Phoenixes and two Yiusis for awhile) would remain intact.

As an example, I'll use my own personal time traveler, Janus. Janus's entire existance functions around this argument, that since he exists outside the normal stream of time he can travel freely between universes. No set form of Janus exists, there's the one that's 6000000 years old and the one that's still about 25. They're all the same person, it's just that theoretically an infinite amount of him exists because the moment one Janus exits his own time, an infinite amount of copies of him from an infinite amount of universes that all fit the various time jumps he's made come into existance. In other words, there can be as many Yiusis as we need, so long as they're all eventually returned to their own times at some point. Similarly, there can be as many Dark Phoenixes as we need, so long as at least one of them evades Star's time freeze and manages to escape the time stream with us. The best part is, since each version has their own parallel universe, they can die and there'd be no consequence to our universe since the only universe that would suffer their loss is the one they were taken out of.

Yeah, I know, it's kinda confusing, and makes almost no sense, but time travel does that to a person...

OOC Well you could say that, but really what I am aiming for is that Star seperates the time lines with his power making that one stop for that instant so whatever he does and whatever anyone does is just reset when he sends Yuisi back. So yes the demon person was still defeated by 2 people that couldn't have been there if Star had just jumped back in time and taken Yuisi. In otherwords two of everyone exists in a way now.

"Good lets get out of here."

Star finishes making sure the time line won't be effected and creates a portal and lets Yuisi go first. Star jumps in next, but at the same time Dark Pheonix sees him and flys in. Star was to busy to notice this and as soon as they made it to the warehouse Star began to change to the time elemental that was part of him. He remained standing and appeared to turn to stone, but a voice still spoke out,

"Sorry I can't help you, but it will require all my powers to keep our timeline from messing up to badly."

Dark Pheonix had already taken airborn before he thought anyone could notice him. He felt the dark flames had become incredibly weak but very abundent. Origin felt Dark Pheonix emerg into this world and made his way to intercept him.

At the warehouse Dracoonx4 sighed as things began to unfold.

"Well we are sure going to have a good time. Star can't help us and Origin is unreachable... Well Yuisi welcome to the future."

Yiusi looks around cautiously. Then she closes her eyes sadly. "Schwa is still in the Etheral Dimmension for all this time because of the timeline swap. I know he would've been here if I hadn't come. But I suppose this was part of my interesting destiny. Which brings me to another point." Yiusi walks up to Dracoonx4. "What exactly happened to the Buster Beetles that made them under-united? I would've vanished if they were really united, so obviously they're not. I sense some sort of darkness involving Yorra. Something's up. What is it?"

"We accomplished very little and all the buster beetles have decided to hate Yorra again from what I know. I guess the etheral demision spans everywhere and can't really be seperated like the rest of time. Maybe that is why Schwa is gone... Oh no he didn't tell us where to go!"

Dark Pheonix and Origin met up high in the skys not to far from the warehouse. They simply looked at each other knowing exactly who each one was. Dark Pheonix had his spear ready and Origin had one of his ready.

"Someone is messing with the time line..."

"You think I didn't know that. This is my chance to see everything to come and decide if I like it or not, and I can already sense you arn't truely immortal anymore..."

Origin had a stern look on his face hoping to avoid this fight that he knew he couldn't quite win.

"Just a second," Yiusi says. She concentrates for a moment, and a rainbow-colored portal starts to appear next to her. Out of the portal steps a familiar figure-- Schwa.

"Wow, my head's spinning!" Schwa says. As Dracoon knows, Schwa's not really there but in the Etheral Dimmension. His form can communicate with them from that dimmension. "It's like I retain all my knowledge from before the timeline changed, but also the knowledge of the new timeline. I've been in the Etheral Dimmension for about a year, helping out those in need like the spirit of a psi warrior. Just in case you were wondering what I did for a year."

Schwa looks around at the current scene and waits for a reply.

"You are supposed to guide us, and Star is out of commision for the time being..."

Dracoonx4 looks towards Schwa seeing differences between this Schwa and the real Schwa. It was disturbing in a way to know about this fact, but Dracoonx4 quickly pushed this out of his mind.

Origin and Dark Pheonix stared at each other one with the wise old eyes of years of mental though, and one with the ageless eyes of arrogance. Dark Pheonix charged Origin with his spear and Origin feel back and dropped down towards the ware house. He could feel the energy from Yuisi and the ethral portal appearing. He knew who was there and figured that something this distubing would have Star in the middle of it.


"Why do you run you coward! Stand and fight me!"

Origin ignored the comment and kept going. He reached the top of the ware house and waited for Dark Pheonix who had lagged behind.

"I suggest you don't fight me. You will gain nothing from it except your pride being injured."

"Guide, huh? Wait a moment, I sense a large amount of activity," Schwa says.

"Me too," Yiusi says. "In fact it's coming from right outside. Should we deal with that first?"

Schwa is already on his way to the door. Being etheral, he knows nothing could hurt him except other psi, or Yiusi being damaged.

"That is always helpful, but maybe we shouldn't get involved."

Even though Dracoonx4 said this he was the first outside. He jumped onto the roof and saw Origin and then he saw Dark Pheonix. Origin jumped towards Dark Pheonix and thrust his spear forward. Dark Pheonix flew to the side and realised that Origin's reach would be to much to counter attack.

"I can't lose to you! You lack true power you have no possible way of defeating me!"

Origin noticed everyone, but quickly turned towards Dark Pheonix.

"I have no need of immortatlity anymore, and eventually you won't either."
