Super had wandered out of the lab, finding himself too jittery to work on anything. As he walked the carpeted hallways of his home, he heard talking from the Foyer. When he arrived, he was dissatisfied to see Lea and Bullet still there, talking, and not the reappearance of Sparky. He caught unto the story Bullet was talking about it. Super knew about what he spoke of. He leaned on the doorway until he was finished, and spoke up when Bullet stopped. "You didn't doom us, actually. We found another in the Mountains above the city. We had a few dark days but besides that, we were fine, no need to beat yourself up about that." He related. "You were banished, even though you would never return. If that makes you feel any better. I dunno." He picked himself off the way and scratched the side of his head. "Bullet, I've not once, not once, taken you for a fool. Sorry for eavesdropping," At this point Super said something under his breath. To the wolves in the room, which was everyone but him, they heard it just fine, "Not really", he muttered, and continued, "But believing that Moonshot would ever have a plan to literally help the the world for the better is a poor move."

Lea looked between Bullet and Super for a moment, not all of the dots seeming to connect at first. Oddly enough to her the concept of time travel wasn't so confusing or unfathomable, but what confused her was that Super said that he was from the same tribe. Trying to regain her sense of logic, Lea attempted to try and console the distraught wolf. "Moonshot tricked you.... Though I didn't know you back then, now you know who he is... and who you are... But there is one thing I have to ask.... how long ago did this happen? It couldn't have been that long ago.....right?" She looked at Super with a smile as if asking for justification, but had a feeling that she was wrong.
((*Lol, read Super and Bullet's begining stories. XD * ))

There was a long silence as Bullet heard what Lea said about it not being that long ago. Sitting there for a bit longer, he let out a slow sigh as he began to think back--trying to get an exact time on how long ago it was--which was quite a lot to think about really. "It was...quite a long time ago." he said, as he broke himself from his thought like trance. "I can't recall how many, but many more than normally possible." he explained softly.
The sound of shuffling could be heard coming from the kitchen as Sparky--who had returned from the kitchen silently--got up from her chair and began to pull the groceries out of the bag and put them away. Opening up the freezer, she still seemed to be thinking about that wolf she saw while she was in the store, thus, she seemed rather lost in her thoughts. "Oh wait...that doesn't go there." she said, as she opened up the freezer and pulled the milk out. Rubbing her head a bit, she stuck the milk down in the refrigerator a second later. "...why did I open up the freezer? I don't think I even had anything that needed to go in there." she stared silently for a bit. "...weird." "...is that wolf still on your mind?" Moonshock's asked, causing Sparky to blink a bit. "Hai." she said. "It just...who was she again?" she blinked, causing Moonshock to let out a bit of a sigh. "I'll explain later." she replied simply, just as confused by what had happened as Sparky was.

Lea tilted her head to the side with a slight ear droop. "That can mean alot of things Bullet. Do you not remember? How old were you when this happened?"

Bullet stared for at Lea for a bit, before closing his eyes and beginning to think about it a bit--trying to figure out how to respond to the white wolf that was in front of him at the point. "I was about ten back then." Bullet said. "That was my age at least." he explained, staring down at his fingers--as he was counting to make sure that it was right. "But..." he said. "I don't think age counts, seeing how the time jump didn't effect my age much." He glanced up from his fingers a bit later. "....you weren't even born when it happened." he added in a second later, he was trying to remember how long it was, he knew Lea wasn't around back then...not to mention, the ruins that Sparky and Super found once weren't ruins at all...

Lea blinked as she heard Bullet's explanation. Not even born? Good Lord, this must have been serious. And she knew there was probably no place to put the story to now.....it was probably gone. Even her own village that had been burned down, only about a decade ago, was left with only small masses of rubble.... arranged in a few rows to symbol some kinda of grave yard...

Bullet sat there silently as he attempted to figure out how long it had been exactly, besides his 'never been born' comment that seemed to have caught Lea off guard. He thought about mention the ruins that were once his home, but he wasn't sure if Lea knew of them or not. It wouldn't hurt to ask anyway, right? "Do you know of any large ruins with moon-shaped symbols carved into the walls?" he asked rather randomly, trying his best to find a way to explain the time difference between the two of them to the white wolf in front of him.

"Moon shapes..." Lea thought aloud, trying to jog her memory of something that she may have remembered.... Suddenly she remembered the forest she had gotten lost in....the one with the horrible petrified tree that stood in her way when she had tried to escape her Echidna captures..... Waiting for her fate, she had looked around in desperation....and above her head was a looming crecent moon....
"D-D-Did......Did your village have a giant tree in it....? W-With a large crecent engraving in it?" Her voice was quavering. Could it be that her home.....was once Super...and Bullets?

Bullet could hear Lea stammering as she struggled to get out her next few questions, his sensitive ears twitched to every word that he said for the moment, before he slowly began to think about it itself. He really didn't need to think about it much, he'd know that marking anywhere...he remember starting at that crescent engraving when he was a little kid, he also remembered watching Sparky and Super playing around that tree. "...Yes." he said softly. "That was my home a long time ago, I'd never forget that tree--or that engraving.." Those two things were the last things that he looked at before he leapt through time. Those were the last memories he had of the home he left behind. Thinking about the engraving for a bit longer, he wondered what state the ruins were in, before turning his attention to something more important--Lea, and the reason why she was stammering in such a way.

Lea was laughing slightly in desbeleif, but at the same time in an odd kind of joy. "That tree......" She was trying her hardest to wrap her head around what this meant. "Th......My elders said it was....thousands of years old...! Maybe even a millenia...I can't remember....." Lea placed her hand on her forehead, rubbing it slightly trying to think back to what she was taught. "The only ruins of the civilization that was there....i-it was just a few rocks..... None of them had the moons.... A-After the altercation with the Echidna's about the emeralds....... The tribes moved...but a few stayed in their old home and.... Then the fire." Suddenly Lea's rambling stopped and her coherency returned. Turning back to Bullet, she said very simply. "Our home was destroyed ten years ago. Whatever remenants of it are gone now....I'm sorry...." Her thoughts went back to the tree....who knew how far the fire spread.... She hadn't been there in so long.....

"It's underground now. No surprise that it kept going beforehand." Super said. "By the time I left, it was total anarchy. But people gather around landmarks, the civilization we had and those that came were probably far different." Super explained. His demeanor was cold. "The entire land sunk underground a couple years ago in an earthquake. I dug out a small chamber, but most of it is still underground." He coughed, looking away. He didn't focus on anything, his eyes glazed over. "It's not far from a home I have out in the countryside. Two hour trip by car from there, so about Three hours from here. I dug some tunnels there in my spare time, and uncovered some of our ruins as well, but you should already know that, Bullet." He muttered, leaving the room.

Lea's mouth went dry. Underground....destroyed.... Those words described her past and life afterward in almost every way.... It wasn't until being reunited with her brother that she had been able to get things together.... She stared at Super as he looked away, then back at Bullet once the green hedgehog had walked away. It was their homes too....and it was gone.
"Super?" She called suddenly, almost getting up from her seat. "I want....I want to see it....." Her hand was on her chest, afraid he wouldn't know what she meant, or if he'd even stopped to hear her. "I want to see....what it is now.....can you take me there...? I don't need a car...I can run there probably in an hour maybe....I just...." Her gaze shifted back and fourth between the two suddenly ancient figures before her. "I want to go home...."

Bullet, who had become silent from Super's cold tone, was rather caught off guard by Lea's aburpt question, but he couldn't blame her either. Her home--which was also his home a long time ago, was destoried, or at least it seemed that way, and now she was getting a second chance to see it. The black and silver wolf glanced in the direction of the green hedgehog, wondering how he would respond to Lea's question. He could only hope that it would be a good answer.
Over in the other room, Sparky was listening to the coversation silently. She glanced over towards Super as he walked out of the room, staring for a bit longer, she turned to the refridgerator and pulled out of the semi-cold sodas from it. Staring at it for a moment, she slowly walked over towards Super and lifted the soda up into the air, before placing the cold can against his cheek softly. Hoping the feeling of cold who snap the green hedgehog out of the state he was in at the point.

Super watched Sparky silently for a moment, and was surprised at the simple action. He warmed slightly, and took the soda. "Thanks." He muttered, before turning towards Lea. "I'm sorry to say, but what's left of your village... there is nothing left besides ashes and a couple of blocks. The only reason it caught my interest at all was the metal pole I tripped over." He said. He understood it wouldn't be enough. She needed closure. "But fine, load your brother up in the back of my car in the garage. You can get to it next to the door to the lab. I'm sure he would want to go too."

"A-Alright..." Lea said, almost a little disarmed by his immediate compliance. Though the cute gesture of Sparky putting a coke can to his face to wake him up was enough to make her a little confused anyway. "Yeah, I suppose Slash would....maybe..... Even if he doesn't wake up, it'll be nice to have him around...."
"All the family together..." She thought solemly.
