Hidden Secrets

Parts 311 & 312

*The next day*
SL: Alright everyone. Here it is.
*Scott opens the back of the van to reveal the machine.*
SR: Backup generators are ready.
Y/N: Do you think we'll need them?
Ban: It's best to be prepared. If the power goes out I don't want to lose him in the 50's.
SL: What did you say?
NR: He's kidding.
Y/N: Now isn't the time for jokes, Bruce.
Ban: It was a bad...bad joke.
SL: I hope so.
NR: You were joking, right?
Ban: It's time travel, Nat. It's either all a joke or nothing.
Y/N: Are we good to go?
Ban: I'm good. Scott?
SL: Ready as I'll ever be.
Ban: I'm gonna send you back a week, let you walk around for an hour and bring you back. For us, it will be 3 seconds.
SL: Sounds easy enough.
SR: You can do this.
SL: Yes I can, Cap...
*Before he can finish his sentence, he disappears.*
Y/N: Did it work?
Ban: Let's find out. Returning in 3...2...1...
*Scott reappears, but there's a problem.*
SR: What...
Y/N: Is that...

Ban: Scott?
*A preteen stands in front of you wearing Scott's suit.*
SL: Um guys, what's going on?
Ban: Uh oh.
Y/N: That can't be Scott.
SL: Well it is.
*Bruce presses a button and Scott disappears again.*
Ban I think I got it.
*He presses a button and an older version of Scott appears.*
SL: Oh, my back is killing me.
Y/N: Bruce...
SR: Get him back.
*Scott disappears again and again another version of Scott appears.*
SR: It's a baby.
Ban: It's Scott.
SR: Bring Scott back.
Y/N: He's so cute. Let's just keep him like this and raise him.
SR: Seriously?
Ban: When I say so, kill the power.
NR: Oh dear god.
*Nat runs over to the power box on the wall. Baby Scott disappears. Bruce starts pressing buttons and then calls out to Nat.*
Ban: Now!
*Nat flips the switch turning off the power to the machine as Scott reappears as his normal self.*
Y/N: Scott? Are you ok?
SL: Somebody peed my pants. But I don't know if it was baby me or old me. Or just me me.
Ban: We did it.
*Steve shakes his head and turns toward the door.*
SR: I need some fresh air.
Y/N: I'm right behind you.
