Janesville – The Shimmering Family.

Sunset shimmering room.

An electronic alarm clock on the workbench next to it shows the time

: 23:58:41 PM.

Chris was already asleep, and Sunset Shimmer was still waiting for a call from Howard and Yu Xi

, "Miss, it's time for you to sleep."

"Haven't you called yet?"

"Nope."

"Alas~"

Sunset Shimmer sighed, her mind was in chaos as she stood by the window and looked at the cloudless night sky.

She had felt a long-lost uneasiness since the noon phone call, and it was the first time she didn't want to believe in her heart.

Since then, she has been praying in her heart [wait a little longer and the call will come, wait a little longer], and now she still prays [wait a little longer, just a little longer...].

[Forget it, make another call, and go to sleep whether you answer it or not.]

"Ava will call again."

"Copy, I'm calling Mr. Howard..."

Sunset Shimmer said faintly as she looked at the half-moon in the sky, and Ava immediately dialed when she heard this.

The soft and calm dialing music sounded in his ears, which calmed Sunset Shimmer's heart a little at first, but as time passed, the soft music lost its effect, and Sunset Shimmer's heart became more and more impetuous.

"Miss, no one answered."

"Heh~Whew~ Forget it, sleep."

Sunset Shimmer took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the chaos in his heart, and then lay down on the bed after a simple wash.

Ava slowly fell back into the tarmac that Sunset Shimmer had made for her next to the workbench.

[I hope you are all well.]

Sunset Shimmer held the blue crystal block that Howard had given her in both hands, and silently prayed for the two couples in her heart.

Next.

"Miss! Miss! Wake up! "

Uh~uh... What's wrong, Ava?

Early in the morning, Ava was awakened by the sunset glimmer, and she sat up in a daze, rubbing her eyes.

Ava, who was floating on the side of the bed, looked at the sunset glimmer that had not yet woken up, and a green light flashed in the camera:

"Miss, the latest news from Arcadia has been released!"

"What?!"

A bombshell message successfully woke up the sunset shimmer.

"Express!"

"Yes Miss... Arcadia Bay, Oregon was hit by a huge storm yesterday, and the local town was severely damaged and houses were destroyed..."

Ava had just finished the headline when she was interrupted by the glimmer of the sunset:

"What! When is the storm? Ava, is this news real?!

She questioned Ava.

"Miss... It's real.

Ava's voice fluctuated in the face of her questioning, but Sunset Shimmer didn't notice it, and her attention was all on the news.

She thought the news was outrageous, and that the Weather Bureau would have given early warning of a storm that could destroy the entire town, but the news the day before yesterday didn't report about the storm, and there wasn't even a news release in Arcadia yesterday.

"How... Ava continued to report.

Ava's words made Sunset Shimmer not believe it, but also had to believe it, after all, Ava was made by her, and she still knew her abilities.

"Search and rescue personnel say that the search and rescue team has counted a list of survivors, and there are currently fewer than 100 people on it..."

, Ava continued, and a string in Sunset Shimmer's heart was plucked as the list of survivors was mentioned.

"Ava, can you report the survivor list directly!"

She shouted excitedly.

"Yes,..."

Ava replied and began to report her name.

Twenty minutes later.

"Without them... How... How could it be..."

click.

The door to the room was pushed open, and Chris walked in, and as soon as he entered, he saw the glimmer of the sunset spread out on the bed.

"Well, you already know,"

Chris sighed as he came to the bed, and he gently held Sunset Shimmer in his arms.

"Chris, that's not true, is it, you tell me! It's not true, is it?!

Sunset Shimmer sensed his breath, and she immediately grabbed Chris's collar and looked at him in horror and asked.

Chris felt the expectation in her eyes, and his heart was very complicated and painful.

As a top hacker, he's seen a lot of scenes, and he's once boasted that there's nothing he can't solve.

But now in the face of the sunset shimmer, he didn't know how to speak.

Chris didn't speak, but Sunset Shimmer sensed that he was avoiding his gaze, intentionally or unintentionally.

At this moment, Sunset Shimmer felt that something in his heart had completely collapsed.

As soon as her body went limp, Chris immediately hugged her steadily.

"I'm sorry, kid... Mourning..."

Chris's tone was irrepressibly sad, and his vision blurred at this moment.

The sunset was faint, expressionless in his arms, his eyes were blank, and tears were silently flowing from the corners of his eyes.

[How so...].

...

Puff ~

A group photo appears from the Polaroid meeting.

Max had just finished the time jump, and she was stunned to observe her surroundings.

At this moment, a familiar female voice sounded.

"We're running out of time, hurry up, Max!"

Max turned his head to see a punk girl with short blue hair standing at a telephone pole with her hands on her chest.

"Chloe!"

She ran over to her and hugged her with joy.

"Oh my God, sis... What happened to you?

Chloe was shocked by her abnormality, obviously the two of them went to a party together to find someone, but they were stopped by Warren to take a group photo, why did the person change after the group photo was taken?

Max: "I'm just glad to be here, with you.

"I'm guessing you'd like to talk to someone. Don't worry... Everything was fine.

Warren on the side turned to leave.

"I'm glad you're with me too. What's wrong, Max? We're going to find Nathan now. He's going to pay for what he did to Rachel... Let's go, quick!

Chloe also walks towards the campus party

"Sorry, Warren...", Max glanced at Warren's back, and then chased after Chloe.

"Chloe, wait! Listen to me!

"Let's talk as we go, shall we?"

Chloe didn't look like stopping.

"Stop, listen to me!"

Max grabbed Chloe's hand.

"All right, Max. I'm listening.

Chloe looked at her with her hands on her chest.

"Chloe, you can't go to that party. If you go, you'll... You're going to die! "

You used superpowers, right? You messed with time, and then I died?

Max explained worriedly, but it upset Chloe.

"It's not like that...",

"You should help me." Nathan doesn't want to touch a hair of me!

Max shook his head: "You're right, he won't." Mark Jefferson is the one who killed you and the others. "

Jefferson? Art teacher? Impossible! Nathan is the murderer! We see the evidence! Sorry, I'm going to that party to make sure he doesn't hurt anyone again. Are you going to come with me?

Chloe looked at Max seriously, and her tone became quick, but Max could understand it, after all, at this time, she also thought that Nathan was the murderer.

Max

sighed in his heart: "Nathan is dead, and you are in danger now."

"That bastard is dead? How do you know?

Chloe asked incredulously.

"Because I'm right there,"

Max said faintly as he looked into her eyes.

"Can you tell me what the hell is going on? Please. "

Chloe..."

"We have to stay in your room and not go anywhere. Then tell David everything and let David take care of everything. You have to tell me what I just said, explain to me that I came here through time through a photograph, and remember to call that phone call and my friends will try to remind the people of the town to evacuate and avoid the storm.

"Can you trust me?"

Max reached out and took Chloe's hand:

"I will always believe in you, Chloe."

...

History changes.

Yesterday:

Chloe is shot and killed-replacement-Max and Chloe find David for help and contact Howard and Yuxi.

Today:

David fights Jefferson alone in the basement to rescue Max - Replacement - David arrests Jefferson in the basement with two police officers.

Max escapes from the basement and goes to the Double Whale Restaurant to get acquainted with Howard and Yu Xi - Replace - The storm appears in advance, Max and Chloe support each other to the tower/Howard & Yu Xi do their best to evacuate the crowd...

Sunset Glimmer, who is extremely sad to learn that there is no Howard & Yu Xi on the survivor list, replaces, almost all the townspeople are evacuated, but Sunset Glimmer can't get through to her parents.

...

"Quick! Fast! Go here!

"Friends, don't be nervous, take it easy, and be careful not to fall!"

Howard stood on a broken down cart, a megaphone in his hand and shouting loudly.

Yu Xi patiently guided the residents of the town to leave in an orderly manner below to avoid a stampede.

Soon, the residents of the area closest to the sea were successfully evacuated.

Howard jumped out of the car, and he hugged Yu Xi.

"Xi, are you alright?"

"Honey, I'm fine."

Yu Xi hugged him, she felt the warmth in her husband's arms, and the worry in her heart dissipated.

After a few seconds, the two let go of each other,

"Why did the storm happen earlier?"

Yu Xi looked at the storm on the sea and said the puzzle in his heart.

They received a strange phone call last night from two girls, one who had dropped out of a local school called Blackwell Academy, and the other who had transferred a week earlier.

One of the girls, Max, said that she had the superpower of going back in time, and that she saw the town hit by a huge storm tomorrow and asked Howard to inform the town's inhabitants in advance to evacuate.

It just so happened that Howard also had evidence that he suspected that Max was a superpower, so he believed her.

A few days ago, a student jumped off a building in Blackwell and was rescued, and the couple went to investigate and learned that the jumper was a girl named Kate Marsh, and the rescuer was Kate's classmate Maxine Caulfield, known as Max.

According to the time, Max had just finished art class at that time, and Kate was already standing on the roof of the dormitory building and was about to jump, but Max suddenly appeared on the roof of the building and successfully rescued Kate, so Howard suspected that Max had superpowers.

Howard hung up and immediately approached the mayor and used some connections to convince him that there would be a storm tomorrow.

Early the next morning, the town's radio began to advertise the evacuation of the residents.

At first, the evacuation was slow, it was cloudless and the weather was clear, and it was close to noon that the residents began to evacuate, because then the sky suddenly became cloudy and rained, and the sea began to gather storms.

The swift evacuation of the residents made the couple both happy and sad, happy that people had finally believed their words, and sad that the storm had appeared earlier.

According to the girl named Max, the storm should have started to converge at noon and hit the town in the evening, but it was not yet noon before the storm began to converge, and now it is expected that the storm will probably be completed in the afternoon and start hitting the town.

"I'm supposed to be a butterfly effect, although the storm is bound to happen today, but she changed history, and the storm was brought forward because of some factors."

Howard explained lightly, glancing at the approaching storm on the surface of the sea and at the tower on the other side of the mountain.

"Xi, it's time for us to go find them."

"Hmm."

...

Half an hour ago.

"Hah!"

Max wakes up from time travel, her mind wandering.

Boom~ Boom la la la ~

The sound of rolling thunder and rain sounded in her ears made her quickly sober up.

Max put his hand over his forehead and looked around.

[Heavy rain... Seaside... Tornado... And Chloe!

"Oh, Chloe!"

She rushed to the side in two steps, facing the storm, Chloe hugged her from behind.

"I saw the real Max come back. So, how's your time traveling, man?

Chloe turned around and gave her a hug and quipped.

"Less!"

Max let go of Chloe and gave her a pat on the shoulder.

"Oh, you survived, you survived! Oh, we both survived!

She looked excitedly at Chloe's pale blue jewel-like eyes.

"I'm desperate to save you, Chloe... Finally succeeded... It really worked!

She said intermittently with tears in her voice.

"I'm back to you!"

"It seems that even fate doesn't want us to be separated."

Chloe was so infected by her emotions that she gave Max a tight hug.

"You... I've traveled through multiple planes just to save me, an ungrateful fool, again and again.

"I hope it's all worth it, but—"

she let go of Max.

"If you want to kick me out of your life after all this farce is over, I won't blame you."

"Come on, the real farce king and slapstick queen of Arcadia Bay have been covered by me this week."

Max stepped back and spread his hands.

"You see what my abilities have triggered? In just a few days. I mean... I'm a nobody!

"You're the brave Max Caulfield, a fucking space-time warrior! Even if you don't have superpowers, you're a person who thinks about others. There's no better friend than you, no!

"It wasn't your intention to happen, but it happened. You have to face up to your own goodness.

Chloe looked at Max affectionately and said lightly.

It was Max's turn.

"Maybe I subconsciously want something to happen to it... I always wish my life was special... It's like an adventure... But it can't be without you.

"And, it didn't happen until I got back here, and I thought... Without you, my power would not exist.

She looked at Chloe with the same affection, telling her feelings.

"Whether it's science or mystical power, we'll obviously never know... But surely we are destined to be bound to each other here and now. I think Rachel must be somewhere out of sight, fighting for justice.

Chloe said, reflecting on the experience.

"I would have thought the same thing. This is what we owe Rachel Amber.

Max agreed.

From the moment she found Rachel's body in a certain timeline, Max felt guilty about Rachel, she used to be a little jealous of Rachel, Chloe had been looking for Rachel and neglected her, but when she saw the corpse and the collapsed Chloe, Max knew that she was wrong.

"Now tell me everything you've done... You remember, right?

Max asked.

"Well, we... We left the party and then made sure Jefferson couldn't find us. Just this time, I'm glad I was able to live in the fortress of real life.

"After that, I called the number you provided, and the two couples over there actually believed us very immediately, to be honest, if it wasn't for the radio this morning to inform the people of the town to evacuate, I would have thought I made a mistake."

"Also, the tornado is getting crazier and crazier, and... And you said we would be safe in the lighthouse.

Chloe took Max by the hand and told him what had happened from last night to now.

"Chloe, look! Tornadoes are getting bigger. It's slowly getting closer. I... I can't believe it's true, but it's all because I..."

"Shut up! Stop beating yourself! We've all paid for it!

Chloe snapped Max off.

"Look at it... Oh, my God! Look at this monster! "

Who knows how it came to be... Maybe this tornado is Rachel's revenge... Our revenge.

She turned to look out at the sea, and Max stood beside her as they watched the terrifying tornado storm as large as the sky should.

"The lighthouse is out of the tornado's range!"

Chloe looked up at the lighthouse on the top of a hill not far away, "Come on!" She ran towards it.

Max suddenly felt a dizziness in his head.

"Ahh

Chloe, who had just run a few steps, immediately turned back.

"How am I... Chloe—"

Max stretched out his left hand and shook it in front of his eyes, then fainted.

Chloe immediately caught her.

"I've got you covered, Max."
