Chapter Two: Time Travel

"Hey Keith!" Damon called.

Keith perked up, hearing his name and trying to find where it came from. Using his speed, he searched the crowd, hardly any time passing by. When he caught sight of Damon waving and looking directly at him, he sped over, facing Damon.

"'Sup?" he asked.

"How fast are you?" he asked.

"I spent what felt like ten minutes searching for you just now." 

"Okay, so fairly fast. Look, I need your help with something. And possibly Zachariah's, too."

"About what?"

"Time travel."

Keith went wide-eyed and just before he was about to speak, Damon signaled him to be quiet and they headed to Keith's room to discuss the matter further.

"Time travel? How in the world do you expect me to do that?" Keith exclaimed.

"Speed." 

"What?" Keith asked, confused.

"There's a theory that if someone were to move fast enough, they could go forwards or backwards in the timeline. We need to go back," Damon explained.

"Why 'We'?" he asked.

"I could save my parents and get my revenge on Genesis, and you could save your wife. We could maybe even stop the Holocaust, or this invasion. But, you know, baby steps."

Keith nodded, taking about ten seconds to process it. All that's left is to think.

"I'll have to think on it. But don't get your hopes up." 

Damon grinned, nodded, and left. He headed into his room and closed the door. He uttered one word:

"Zachariah."

The angel suddenly appeared in his room following a large flash of light.

"I was summoned?" he said. 

"Hey, I need your help with something," Damon told him. "I know you can teleport people from place to place, but what about from time to time?"

"Like on the timeline?" Zachariah asked.

"Yeah."

"I don't know. What I do know is that it would drain me severely, and possibly destroy the timeline itself. Why do you ask?" Zachariah said.

"I want to go back and save my parents."

"Damon-- "

"Just think about it, okay?" Zachariah sighed and nodded as he left the room. Damon pulled out his white dry-erase board and a marker. He'll be up for a while. He's gotta solve the time travel equation.
