Divided

It's been 2 hours since the previous events occurred. It's nine 9pm, night time. It's dark out, and the boys have been sitting in the same area in which the time slip collapsed, for 2 hours. Lewis is on the ground looking up at the sky. Johnny is leaning against a tree with his eyes closed. Allan thinks he's sleeping, but he's actually just meditating, and processing everything that happened. Then finally Allan climbed up on a tree and started listening to old episodes of The Office he downloaded on his phone while he read the newspaper Lewis had. No one talked, no one spoke or uttered a word. The last episode Allan was watching ended, he checked to see if there were more to listen too while he read to distract himself but there wasn't. Then he got mad, and punched the tree. The tree shook, and made the branches shake. Johnny, and Lewis both looked up at the tree. Allan made eye contact with them. Then he tried to get down from the tree, then he fell down from it.  Lewis gets up, then Johnny quickly follows. They both stretch out one hand each, and lift Allan from the ground. Then Allan says: 'just like when I almost died falling last time huh guys?' Not even a smile comes out of Johnny and Lewis, when Allan says that. Then they turn around, and walk away. Allan tries to walk then he grunts really loudly in pain, and falls to the ground. The guys run over to him, and pick him up. Allan says: 'I think I hurt my ankle.' Johnny and Lewis carry him over their shoulders then they place Allan on the ground. Lewis pours water on Allan's leg from the bottle Johnny threw at him earlier. Allan says: 'thanks' then Lewis says: 'you're welcome.' Allan gasps, and says: 'finally you talked.' Lewis says nothing then lies down on Allan's right side. Then Johnny lies down about 2 feet away on Allan's left side. Then Allan says: 'we have to talk about this at some point.' Nobody answered, but Allan stayed up for an hour expecting them to talk he finally gave up, and went to sleep. They all spent the night in the forest, and they woke up the next day, June 15th in the morning. It was 8 in the morning the next day. Lewis woke up first then when he looked to his side, and looked over at Johnny he noticed that Allan wasn't between them. He touched Johnny to wake him up. He grabbed him by the arm then pulled him. Then Johnny pushed Lewis's arm away then sat up. Lewis pointed to where Allan is supposed to be, and Johnny immediately understood what he meant. Ten minutes later we see Johnny and Lewis walking around the forest, and looking up the trees to find him. Then Johnny turns to Lewis who's walking behind him, and he asks: 'where the hell did he go? He can't even walk.' Then Johnny said: 'what if he found another v-thing, and left us here?' Lewis looks over to the direction where the v-thing was, and then frowns. While this was taking place, in a pocket dimension in a place unknown. We can see Allan lying on a floating rock that looks like it's floating in the empty void of space. Allan freaks out, and starts holding his breath. He drops a desperate tears as he feels he's gonna die in space. Then he realizes he can breathe hear, and he's not floating. Then he hears a deep voice say: 'you don't need to do that here Allan.' Then he sees a figure sitting on a stone throne looking down on him. He's wearing a black cloak, that creates a shadow over his face, so his face can't be distinguished. Allan looks shocked with his eyes wide open, and his legs shaken. He starts limping backwards but his leg hurts too much, then he runs out of space. He turns to the figure, and the figure says: 'that's right I know who you are.' Allan says with fear: 'you do?' He's sweating, and shaking expecting the answer to his question. The figure stands from his throne, and sits on one of the rock steps, and stares at Allan. The figure: 'I know you more than you can possibly imagine, your name is Allan Jackson Taylor born on the 26th of May in 2003, which means you just recently turned 17. You were born in Saint Rose's Hospital. You have an affinity for superheroes like Iron Man for their confidence, and you like Superman cause he's powerful, and helps you feel in control of your life.' Then he walks two more steps down, and says sarcastically: 'or I could be wrong my memory is getting fuzzy.'  Then Allan nods his head, and says in a scared voice: 'no, I think that's about right.' Then the figure says: 'I would get to the personal stuff like your mother, but I think you've dealt with enough of that lately.' Allan clenches his fist in anger, then he asks: 'how do you know so much about me?' Then the figure laughs, and leans forward. As he does he whispers: 'Because I know everything.' While this was taking place back in the past in the year 1996 where the boys are we can see them enter an establishment. Johnny and Lewis decided to go to McDonald's cause they can't find Allan, and they haven't had food in a while. Lewis is behind Johnny in the line, and Lewis asks Johnny: 'hey, you got money?' Johnny says sarcastically: 'no I was just gonna give myself to the cashier to pay it off.' Lewis: 'yeah I guess that's on me for asking, but what I mean is I could pay for you I have my wallet on me with 30 bucks.' Johnny says: 'oh I didn't know that's what you meant.' Lewis: 'wow I can't believe that you were kinda nice to me there.' Johnny: 'well if I get something out of it then yeah I will.' The two sit down at the table, Johnny ordered Mc Bacon Chicken, and Lewis ordered a Big Mac. Lewis ate his really fast cause he was hungry, then he looks over to Johnny, and says: 'dude you haven't touched your food, what's up?' Johnny takes another bite out of the burger he only ate half way, and says: 'I guess I ain't hungry.' Lewis: 'that's impossible, you haven't eaten anything since that ramen you ate the other day.' Johnny raises his middle finger to Lewis's face then lies down over the table. Then Lewis shakes his head in frustration, and looks at the sandwich he was eating. Then Lewis says: 'wait a minute. Ain't this the sandwich Allan always eats when he comes over here?' Johnny says with his face against the table: 'I don't know gay midget, maybe.' Then Lewis says: 'hm did you not want to eat this cause it reminded you of Allan?' Johnny: 'nah.' Lewis: 'you miss your friend, and the sandwich annoyed you to much?' Johnny: 'nah.' Lewis: 'and you feel guilty cause we didn't talk to him that much the other night.' Then Johnny picked up the sandwich, and said: 'if you don't stop asking questions I'm throwing this at you.' Lewis: 'I ain't just asking questions, I'm stating facts.' Then he throws the sandwich lightly at his face. Lewis exhales in frustration, then Johnny said: 'I had mercy, that was a soft throw.' Then Lewis says: 'looks it's ok to be upset man that happens.' Johnny interrupts, and says: 'shut up.' Then he looked at the window, and he saw something. He then gasped, and ran into the McDonald's bathroom. Lewis turned around, and saw him run, then hesitantly followed. Before he opened the door he said to himself: 'what am I doing?' Back at the pocket dimension where Allan, and the figure were. The figure tells him: 'Allan you can sit down, I have no intention to hurt you.' Allan asks the figure: 'where are we?' The figure starts cackling, but before he answered the question Allan said: 'and who the hell are you? Why'd you bring me here?' The figure said: 'those are all great questions, and it's good cause I think I can answer all of them.' He looks off into the distance, and said: 'we are in time, and I know that sounds vague so let me explain. We are in a sort of pocket dimension, if you will. Which exists not outside of the realm of reality but in between universes. You see time is like a force or an entity, it keeps the multiverse moving, but in here it stands still.' Allan looks around himself, at one end he sees a bright white light, and in the other extreme, he sees the same. Then he says: 'I'm sorry did you just say multiverse?' The figure approaches closer, and says: 'that's right there is a multiverse, and I can see every inch of it from here.' Then Allan gets up, and says: 'you know what no I'm not gonna let you wrap me up with this, the whole time travel thing has me confused as it is. I'm not gonna be able to process all this.' Then the figure interrupts him, and puts his arm on him. Then Allan says: 'and don't forget you brought me here against my will, and took me away from my friends' Then he tries to punch the figure, but his hand goes through him. Allan gasps in awe, and steps aside slowly. Then the figure starts walking up the stairs, and said: 'you're probably wondering how I did that, you see I can alter my molecules at will allowing me to phase through anything. One of the many powers you get as a time keeper.' Allan stares at him in confusion. Then he says: 'that's right you wanted to know who I am, and why I brought you here. Well now you know who I am. If you don't get the concept which I'm sure you don't, well let me explain it to you. I'm one of the many who is charged with keeping the flow of time intact. I didn't ask for this job, but that's a story for another time.' Allan interrupts him before he can continue,  and says: 'you still haven't told me why  I'm here.' Then the figure said: 'oh that's right.' Then he sits on his throne, and says: 'I'm here to help you.' Allan stares at him with anger. Then he says: 'you can call me Kronos.' Back at the restaurant with the boys Johnny locked himself in a stall in the boys bathroom. Lewis is sitting outside of it knocking on the door. Johnny's been there for so long Lewis knocks once every five minutes cause he's tired, and has been sitting there for too long. At one point Lewis yells: 'alright man stop it get out of this bathroom right now.' Johnny opens the door which pushes Lewis. Then Johnny grabs Lewis, and takes him to the bathroom door. Then Johnny said: 'peak your head out, and see for yourself a-hole.' Then he tells Lewis: 'if you wanted to know what was happening to me that's what's happening. You see that tall, dark skinned guy, with the blue shirt that's my uncle.' Lewis looks puzzled for a second then says: 'I knew you saw something in that vagina looking thing just like we did.  What did you see about him? What's his deal?' Johnny: 'why would you even try asking, I'm not telling you.' Lewis: 'look Johnny, Allan's gone, the time v-thingy is gone, our chances of getting back home are gone. Whether you like it or not we're stuck together, and if we're always gonna be fighting we're gonna be stuck here forever. So please let me help you.' Johnny exhales out of his nose aggressively, and says: 'that's my uncle when he was 21.' Lewis: 'how do you know.' Johnny: 'cause I've seen him in pictures, but I was just about to explain that but you had to be a moron, and interrupt.' Lewis says: 'ok I walked right into that, but let it all out tell me how much he meant to you. Out of the three of us I think you're the only one who hasn't talked about his feelings yet.' Johnny tells him: 'he's still alive for now, and I love my parents but my uncle made me who I am today, so I don't wanna lose him, and yeah I guess it also sucks to have fought with your friend who was only trying to help you get through that, and now I might never see either of them again.' Lewis was about to hug him, but Johnny said: 'stop it you gay midget, and if you tell AJ about this I'll kill you.' Then Johnny told Lewis to check if he was still there. Then Lewis told him he still was. Then Johnny said: 'perfect, now I can go talk to him.' Then Lewis said: 'no, no what are you doing? We literally tried to stop Allan from doing this yesterday.' Johnny: 'I know but then I thought about it, and I realized if I told him, or grandma or whoever about his condition, that could stop it now move over idiot I have to save him.' Then Lewis holds back Johnny, and tells him: 'no you're not thinking straight, you need to calm down.' Then Johnny keeps saying I have to, I have to, until he breaks down on the floor crying. Lewis is astonished, and he doesn't know what to do. He puts his jacket over him, and sits next to him on the bathroom floor. After a few minutes they leave the bathroom, and sit in the parking lot, throwing rocks in a trash can as a game. Johnny says: 'ok who's ahead?' Lewis: 'surprisingly me by two points.' Then Johnny says: 'ok then first to land a shot starting now wins.' Then Johnny throws the rock, and he wins. Then Lewis says: 'but that's cheating.' Johnny walks away and says: 'I won, also if you tell Allan about this.' Then Lewis says: 'I know you'll kill me, but what if he doesn't come back? What if that thing took him?' Johnny and Lewis both stare at each other. Johnny looks away but has visible sadness they've both been avoiding the possibility of Allan not coming back. They start walking into the street, and Lewis says: 'where do we go now?' Johnny says: 'I don't know I guess we keep looking.' Then Lewis said: 'I don't want to keep looking, and giving myself false hope if he's gone.' Then a car stops in front of the two of them, it's a grey sedan. The man lowers his window, and asks for directions. Johnny's jaw drops to the floor, and his heart starts racing when he sees it's his uncle.
