Re-writing the Past

Chapter Nine

In The Living Room
Tim and Matt walk back into the living room where Ty is laying on the couch.
"Will she live?" Asked Ty, worried.
"Who?" Asked Matt, confused.
"Amy, if I don't jump in front of that bullet will she live?" Asked Ty.
"You weren't supposed to hear about that," Said Tim.
"Well I did so seriously if I don't jump in front of that bullet will she live?" Asked Ty, worriedly.
Tim sighs
"I-I don't know..." Said Tim not wanting to answer the question.
Ty looked at him unsurly.
"No...the doctor said if you hadn't jumped in front of the bullet she would've died" Tim admitted reluctantly.
"You can't expect me to be on board with letting my wife die," Said Ty in disbelief.
"You don't even know her," Said Tim, confused.
"So? I clearly love her at least in the future," Said Ty.
"The boys right, if you expect to save him then we'll have to figure out how to save them both," Said Matt.
"You think I don't know that? I don't want my daughter to die but I don't want him to die either! There has to be another way!" Argued Tim.
"Like what?" Asked Matt.
"I wish I knew..." Said Tim at a loss.

At Heartland
Amy, Jack, Lou and Georgie are all watching.
"No Ty...please just make sure you're okay not me," Begged Amy.
"They'll figure it out, they have too," Said Lou, softly.
"How?" Asked Georgie

In 2004  In The kitchen
Tim, Ty are sitting at the table when Matt walks over and hands Ty a beer sitting down with one for himself.
"He's not old enough to drink," Said Tim.
"Who cares? The boys been drinking since he was eight or younger," Said Matt.
"So who killed me?" Asked Ty.
"Uhhh...we don't really know," Said Tim.
"You don't know?! Are you kidding?!" Asked Matt, pissed.
"The only one who saw him was Ty and well..." Tim said.
"Well maybe if you knew, we could stop him," Said Matt.

At Heartland
"We have to find out who killed uncle Ty!" Said Georgie.
"Even if we do, how will we get it to Ty and Dad," Asked Lou.
"I'll call Adam, maybe we can figure out how to send a message to him and see if Jim can help us find the guy that killed Ty," Said Georgie, determined.
"Thank you Georgie," Said Amy hopefully.
