Chrono-Vision: the ability to see in the past, present, and future simultaneously.

"Kitty Hawk and Icarus, check in. Over."

Tiana raises her hand to her earpiece, eyes scanning the street below with feral anticipation. "Kitty Hawk and Icarus are alive and well. How about you two, over."

"Still nothing," Hayley responds. "Keep your head on a swivel, I can hear the ghosts going nuts. Over."

"Don't worry, my head's spinning like an owl on crack. Over."

A laugh crackles through the radio. "Hang tight, you two. Over and out."

Josh hops down from his spot crouched on a satellite dish, dropping beside Tiana. "I think there's something wrong. They should've attacked by now."

"Bad guys don't have a set schedule." Tiana pulls her goggles over her eyes and hop off the edge of the theater's roof. "I want to try something, cover for me."

"This again? Really?" Josh pushes his own goggles off, scooting so he's sitting where she'd been.

"I've almost got it. If I can just concentrate long enough on the events of my dream to see how it connects to yours, then we can fill in the dots and not get everyone killed."

"I told you, I don't think it's going to happen," Josh says.

"Well, until we can be a thousand percent sure of it, I'm gonna try and use my time powers."

He looks over his shoulder for a second, seeing Tiana sitting in a meditative pose, legs crossed and hands firmly planted on her knees. Her eyes are blocked by the reflective glass of her goggles, but Josh knows they're closed. She breathes deep and slow, her body relaxed.

"Tell me if it works," he says, turning back around to continue his watch.

They sit there for a couple hours, the explosive hum of afternoon traffic the only exciting thing to happen. Josh begins to get sleepy, his eyes fluttering every now and then, until a static shock of adrenaline jolts him upright. His eyes shoot open, immediately grazing across the street below. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary, as far as he can tell, but his skin is crawling and he can't stop vibrating with anticipation.

He looks behind him, Tiana is still in her meditation, eyes flicking under the lids. Her face scrunches up with discomfort, small licks of dark energy appearing around her clenched fists.

"Medium, it's Icarus," he says into his earpiece.

"What's up?" Hayley asks.

"I don't know yet. I have a weird feeling, though."

"Weird how?"

"Like my body is waiting for something to happen, but I can't see anything."

"No sign of Alley Cat or Frangipane?"

Before Josh can respond, Tiana breaks out of her meditation, gasping suddenly. She falls forward, catching herself with her hands.

"Alley Cat is coming," she wheezes, pushing herself to her feet. "I saw him in my vision. He's headed here. We have thirty seconds."

Hayley pauses, taking in what she said. "We're on our way."

"Wait, don't!" Tiana exclaims frantically. "It's a trap. Frangipane's going your way, she's going to attack you when you leave."

"How do you know that?" Tyler asks.

"I- I saw like twenty different outcomes to this fight," she starts to ramble. "There's a 40 percent chance that you come our way, you die and a 70 perfect chance we die. The odds get worse the closer they get to their goals, with us having a 98 percent chance once the robots show up."

"Robots?"

As if on cue, a heavy thud shakes the roof beneath them. Josh quickly finds the cause- a towering, hodge podge of a lioness walking from the left side of the street. It looks to be made of metal, concrete chunks, and a bunch of other material. The eyes shine eerie and blue, sunlight reflecting off the crystal surface and hitting his face.

"Shit, he's here!" Tiana shouts, frantically whipping her head around. "Do you see him?"

Josh freezes, seeing a second smaller fox robot appear at the other end of the street. Neither have anyone riding them, meaning they're being remotely piloted. Machines that big require close range, which means Alley Cat is close.

The back of his neck prickles, and Josh turns just in time to block a roundhouse kick aimed for him. He grabs Alley Cat's ankle and twists himself around, launching the man over his shoulder. Tiana spins on her heels, watching Alley Cat planting his face into the concrete.

"Ha, bitch!" She shouts in triumph, stomping her boot into his head.

Suddenly she tilts her head, her face twisting in confusion, and then she raises a hand. A thick curl of dark energy swirls around her fist, spikes shooting into Alley Cat's unmoving body. The body shivers and then melts, distorting into a pile of fledged metal parts and black oil.

She swears loudly in frustration, turning back to the street below. "It's a decoy. Frangipane must've done this."

"He's gotta be close," Josh says. "I can feel him."

"Me too. Let's draw him out."

Tiana's wing spreads out, the gray and tan tipped feathers glistening. She looks over her shoulder at Josh. "You coming?"

Then she's gone, over the edge of the roof in a glorious free fall. Josh follows close behind. He rolls his eyes at her theatrics and spreads his wings out, the air parachuting under them. Tiana shoots a spear of energy into the ground, pole vaulting over a parked car and plowing right into the side of the fox robot.

"Since when can you do that?" Josh shouts over the whistling wind in his ears.

"Since just now!" She shouts in response, a smile in her voice.

Josh heads in the other direction, soaring down the street and landing not-so gracefully on top of the lioness' head. He raises his hands over his head, punching through the thin metal. Inside, he can see a tangled ball of wires and electrical parts, a brain shaped bundle buried deep within the robot's head, and the dramatic red glow of a jagged crystal.

"What the... is that-" Josh digs his hand into the wires, maneuvering through the mess in hopes of reaching the stone. He's close enough to feel the subtle heat emanating from it before his shoulders hike up by themselves and someone grabs his wing.

He's thrown up and off the lioness' head. Josh is barely able to gather his bearings and grab a piece of rebar sticking out of a concrete block somewhere on the front leg. The lioness continues to march to its unknown destination, swinging him back and forth with each step.

Alley Cat stands where he'd been before, wearing a mangled science coat, a completely black suit underneath. He raises his hand up to Josh, who barely has time to let go before the bar he'd been previously holding onto curls, attempting to trap him where he was.

Josh twists so his stomach is facing the quickly approaching ground, managing to teleport right before he slams into the concrete. He reappears beside Tiana, tumbling and landing on his feet.

"Nice of you to join me," Tiana quips as soon as he turns to face her.

"He's here, for real this time," Josh says, trying to catch his breath. He can see Alley Cat from here, already beginning to repair the lioness.

Tiana's eyes squint, and even though he can't see the rest of her face, he knows she's furious. "How do you know it's him?"

"He used his powers. A double wouldn't be able to do that."

Her hands explode with black flames. Josh grins.

"Icarus," she says, her voice low and almost growling with unbridled anger, "I would like to rage."
