Skylos saw that the only reaction from the crowd was the annoyance of the meeting not starting on time. "Alright... If time is changing, it would be because of the person now on stage." Skylos jumped on stage and then demanded. "Who are you?" The person smiled quite sadistically. He was now fully visible now as the time rift had closed. The human was wearing clothes that were quite strikingly similar to Skylos's. His eyes were yellow and his hair was snow white. It appeared to be a Light Human. His response sounded like gibberish...some unknown language.

"Great," muttered Masamune. "I can tell this is going to be fun..." He waited tensely for the interloper to make a move.

The Light Human raised his left index finger and his arm up...
Skylos mirrored the move and shouted. "He's using lightning! I'll try to prevent him from hitting anyone." As he finished this, coils of lightning were on stanby on both Light Humans.

As soon as he heard this, Masamune whipped out one of his guns and fired an ice bullet at the stranger.

The lightnings attacked one another and were drawn to each other. Skyloshad made his lightning wth opposite ions. However, the Light Human had no choice but break coil with Skylos after he sensed the other danger. He side-stepped and shot out a prism light beam from his same index finger towards Masamune's heart.
Skylos broke his lightning so that he didn't harm anyone. He then ran up behind the Light Human, grabing prisms from his robe pockets. "He can only attack with the left side of his body. It's a... Light thing."

Masamune dodged the attack. "Blind side? Never a good thing," he grinned, moving to the Light Human's right and firing again, several times in a row, constantly moving.

Skylos quickly threw the crystals and they hovered in the air and connected by threads of light, making a barrier that made it so that the Light Human couldn't escape the stage.
The Light was sightly wrongfooted and stumbled slightly to align himself correctly to match Masamune. he couldn't keep up and was only able to shoot down the bullets as he turned. As he continously fired light beams, his entire left arm began to glow. The light began to crack into shards...

At that moment, Masamune decided to abandon gunplay and, drawing his katana, charged at the Light Human, slicing laterally as he reached him.

Skylos, meanwhile, took out a capture orb and kept it on standby. From his left fingers came threads of light which he put behind The Light Human.
The Light Human grinned. This was what he wanted. The shards from his arm suddenly went airborne and made like a web in the air. Of course the Light Human still had to dodge the attack since he figured this trap would only cause minor injuries...At the moment. He lept backwards, and fell backwards to the ground. He had tripped over the threads.

"Sucker!" Masamune yelled even as he himself collided with the web and was cut in several places. "Ow..." He rolled under some of the threads, but if he moved far from his current position he'd be lacerated again. Still, he knew he has to keep his enemy's attention away from Skylos as far as possible, so he opened fire once more with his pistol, which was in his left hand, with the katana in the other.

The Light Human's eyebrows went up and he rolled on the ground out of the way of pistol fire. His rolling was stopped when he hit the barrier. With a look of fright, he fired light beams blindly, since he was in a position of being easily shot.
Skylos was trying to aim the capture orb. "Masamune, try to get him into a position where I can capture him... We can't kill someone out of time...It could change it." He ducked as a light beam flew past him.

"Right..." muttered Masamune, firing bullets slightly to the Light Human's side - close enough to worry him and get him to move, but not aiming to kill. This way, he herded his opponent towards Skylos. However, his fire was interrupted as a light beam whizzed towards him. Dodging, he was forced to slice himself on the light web once more. Gritting his teeth, he found another safe spot and began firing once more.

The Light Human moved back in the other direction and was headed unknowningly closer to Skylos. He was also making more shards on his arm. But then he bumped into something...
That something was Skylos. "Thanks Masamune...That's close enough I'd say." he fired the capture orb, point blank.

Masamune waited with baited breath to see if the capture orb would work.

The in-air shards dropped harmlessly to the floor of the stage. Skylos grinned as the capture orb had worked. "Great! I think we've prevented a World War." As he went to pick up the orb, he noted that it wasn't there. "Eh?" Instinctively he looked up and saw that guard from his last time trip. "Eh?" he repeated. The time traveler was holding the capture orb.

"Who's this amateur?" Masamune grumbled. "Hey, that's ours, you know," he called over to the time traveler. Of course, he wouldn't have any idea who he was. He probably assumed he was a local.

Skylos scratched his chin. "I...Met him in 1492." Skylos said, it not so strange since they were in 2154. "Look...Why do you keep showing up in these times?" Skylos inquired to the time traveler.
The time traveler was wearing a navy blue cloak. He seemed about 5'8" and on his face was a sort of wolfish grin. He was somewhat transparent, like a ghost. Around his neck was an amulet with a blue stone and on his back was a cerulean lance. "Heh heh. I'm just returning things to how they should. That includes you two as well." He snapped with his free hand and a time hole appeared and started to vacuum Skylos and Masamune in.

"What the...!" Masamune exclaimed as he was sucked back in. "Hey! That's cheating!" He didn't have time to say much else.

"Wait! Your name?" Skylos managed to say.
The time traveler grinned. "Zephyr, Zephyr Cadge. Long and forgotten." However, that was all that they would hear.
With that, the twosome would find themselves back in cosy 2008, right outside the secret room, which seemed to be fluxtuating. The space in the room was contorting in strange directions and seemed unstable. It disapeared altogether after a few seconds, and all was left was the bookcase that was in front of it to begin with. The World War III book fell off the shelf and made a weird sound. Skylos blinked. "That sounded...hollow." He said.

Masamune nodded in agreement. "Open it?" he suggested.

Skylos picked it up. It was very light. He opened it carefully and found it to be just a box. Skylos raised both eyebrows and then took out a rather chipped blue stone.

"Heh, looks like we found our treasure after all," Masamune joked. "I wonder what it does..."

Skylos grinned and turned it over in his hand. "It looks like a hunk of a sapphire." Skylos squinted. "If I'm not mistaken...I can see dimension energy coming from it..."

"And that means...?" Masamune propted, excitement and impatience tinging his voice.

Skylos scratched the back of his head. "It's very powerful and dangerous... What's more is that it's only a piece...which means that there's more of it to find. I don't know how much is left...but I would estimate at least two more pieces." He smiled. "You can bend reality with it."

Masamune gave a low, appreciative whistle. "Sounds like something worth having." He grinned wryly. "And I suppose we have to wait until our next trip for another piece?"

"I don't want to burst your bubble, but I've already been on one trip, and I didn't get a piece then. As far as I know...It could be every other trip...or completely random." He shrugged and then pocketed the stone. "Shall we head back to the cabin? I think our job here is done."

Masamune nodded slowly, seeing the reasoning. "Yeah, alright, let's go." He sounded just a little put out

Skylos frowned slightly. "Ah..." He didn't know how to continue. He had a bad habit of always trying to be right. He then smiled. "I'm going to need help explaining this story to everyone... I look forward to you helping me out with it." he started towards the exit.

Masamune grinned. "No problem," he answered cheerily. "I'll be sure to attribute myself enough importance," he went on with a wink
