Chapter 19: Just Thinking

Failboat's Pov:
The journey once again continues and I sigh softly as I look over at TNT. He was in front of the group as we realized he could be a great asset to fighting. This once broken and weak-looking person turned into a strong and obedient one. Yet, I don't know how to feel about that. I feel concerned about the huge change in personality. I feel glad that he'll use his fire powers for good and help us out on defeating Zero. I feel bad about what I said to him, this morning. "Jeez, Daniel, keep your priorities straight," I mumbled, looking away from TNT. "Is something wrong, Failboat?" Liz asked, noticing my distress. I looked up to see her right next to me and I saw TNT look at me, confused and concerned. I looked back at Liz and slightly shook my head. "Honestly, I'm not sure at this point. Everything is happening so fast." I replied, putting a hand through my hair. "Well, I can see why. We met two people who almost killed us yet, made up for it by helping us. We're on our way to defeat an entity who can destroy everything. We're facing an ice element. And, we've lost memories from a different timeline or something like that." She explained, remembering back to everything that was said before. "Well, when you put it that way, it's a lot," I replied, chuckling a bit. "But, that's not it, Liz. It's something else." I spoke, looking back up at TNT. "Hm, what about him?" She asked, noticing the hint. "I don't know I've been thinking just now. You know, how you found us this morning?" I spoke, blushing slightly. She nodded slowly and I look back at her. "We had a conversation last night and I can't stop thinking about it," I responded.

"Woah, sounds deep. What happened?" She asked, her tone filled with curiosity. "He told me when he passed out, he had these weird dreams. The first one confirmed that Zero and Hexa created this world with codes and it's possible that a deeper connection was between them. And the second one is what gets me thinking." I explained, quickly. "He explained that I hugged him and told him a lot of heartfelt stuff. Until he stabbed himself." I added, looking down. Why is he getting all the memories but, none of us haven't gotten anything?

Is he something special to the timeline? Someone that is required to be there for the timeline and the world to function? "Did he mention what you said in that dream?" Liz asked. "He said that I was forgiving him for something. He doesn't know what it is and I don't know either." I replied, looking at TNT who had his back turn slightly. I could definitely tell he was listening in to our conversation but, I couldn't tell how he felt about it. "And that's not the weird part. He told me these dreams seem to be connected to the timeline Hexa keeps talking about." I add, crossing my arms.

"The timeline, you say? Who knows he could be lying." Liz suggested and I psychically stop. I start walking again when Liz looked back at me and motioned me to continue walking. "Why would TNT lie about that sort of thing? I mean, sure, we don't believe the timeline thing just yet but, even I know he wouldn't joke about that." I replied, my eyes widen at the suggestion. "We don't know him well enough, Dan. He could be lying just to guilt-trip you, for all we know." Liz explained.

"But, then, why does it feel so real?" I questioned, a blush appearing once again on my face. "Daniel? Your face is red, uh, are you okay?" Liz asked, concerned. "TNT seemed to be hesitant to explain the second event. He even said I did something to him that I started with a 'K' until he changed it to 'talk'." I explained, continuing to stare at the mouse hybrid. "Well, he could have meant that you killed him and made up the stabbing himself bit," Liz suggested, trying to pull me away from my thoughts.

"Daniel, I would recommend not getting attached to him. Who knows if he'll backstab and betray us." She explained, sending a small glare toward him. "Liz, I don't know why but, I feel like I've known him my entire life. And I want to try to earn some memories back if I even had them from the timeline." I explained, putting my hands on her shoulder. "Well, uh, I'm not sure about that but, I guess you do you," Liz spoke, her expression seemed unamused. "But, don't come running to me if you get your heart broken." She added.

"TNT is still a stranger and I'm not sure if he finds you as an ally considering how we've been treating him. And especially how you treated him this morning." She explained and I groaned slightly. "Right, that whole thing. Do you think he is pissed with me?" I asked. "No, but, he may be annoyed with your behavior and attitude. And maybe he's done with you." Liz replied. She was about to say something else until we heard something rustle in the bushes. "Everyone, stay on guard!" She exclaimed and we all summoned our elemental powers. "Crystal, examine the bushes with your vision and TNT be ready to burn one." She ordered and they both nodded.

"And Dan-" I stopped her mid-sentence as I knew what to do. "Stay on guard in case the fire spreads, I know," I spoke, teasingly. We all huddled around and looked around to see what could be behind the bushes. We heard something get thrown on the ground and we looked behind us to see a snowball. "Isn't it supposed to be summer or something?" I asked as we stepped behind. The snowball suddenly exploded letting out a mist that made us all feel sleepy. I slowly fall to my knees and before I fell asleep, I saw a figure creeping around us.

He stood where ExplodingTNT stood.
