FUTURE VOICES


 " I been checking this blasted Time-Drive and there is still damage after Iain 
used it!" said Donatello connecting wires to other wires.
" Sugar, we been here for thirty minutes, I though this would take five. What is 
the problem with this piece of junk!" said Bunnie reading the blueprints.
" This piece of junk saved most of our lives, remember. Iain and Lem went back 
in time to stop what was happening to us, screwdriver," said Donatello.
" Give me a reminder!" said Bunnie handing him the tool.
"  Remember what happen, I started to fade, you became three quarters robotized, 
Sally and Sonic also stared to become rebotized too. Scooter and Sarah started 
to fade as well, well not as much as Jenny. She was really fading!" said 
Donatello replacing the top of the drive on top.
" Good point sugar!" said Bunnie. Dipsy came in; he was wearing his hat.
" Eh-oh!" said Dipsy.
" Morning, what does Iain want?" Said Donatello.
" Er.... He doesn't want anything, I'm seeing what everyone is doing!" said 
Dipsy.
" Fine, carry on!" said Donatello. Dipsy walked out of the control room.
  Dipsy walked into the super computer; he sat down next to the dashboard. 
Nicole came on line. Dipsy took off his hat and put it on the floor.
" What can I do for you Dipsy?" asked Nicole. Dipsy scratched his head.
" Tubby Toast and a movie," said Dipsy.
" What movie?" asked Nicole.
"  101 Dalmatians, cartoon please!" said Dipsy. Lem came into the room, he 
pulled up a chair.
" Eh-oh Lem," said Dipsy.
" Hi Dipsy, Nicole. Where's Iain?" asked Lem.
" I do not know!" said Nicole back.
" Okay, what about Sally?" asked Lem.
" I do not know!" said Nicole.
" Look, do you where anyone is?" asked Lem.
" NO BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE YOUR USER CODE!" said Nicole. Lem sighed and tapped 
in a five-digit code.
" That's better!" said Nicole.
" I going to let Donatello have a look at your circuits, where's Iain?" asked 
Lem.
" He is in the throne room, with Sally, Tinkie Winkie, Donatello, and Antoine," 
said Nicole.
" Thanks, enjoy your film," said Lem who got up and went. Dipsy looked in the 
deposit box, in there was his Tubby Toast.
" Tubby Toast, yum, yum!" said Dipsy tucking in.

 Iain was in the throne room, Donatello was testing a new gadget, and Sally, 
Tinkie Winkie and Antoine were present.
 " This is a pair of super sticky pads. Helpful for practising climbing and 
mainly to get up walls not being seen," said Donatello.
" Sticky pads, another American idea which I think is rubbish," said Antoine.
" So, they don't say much about your rubbish!" said Iain.
" And they don't say anything about stupid commanders!" said Antoine.
" You two clam down, I'm interested and I don't want any more taking the mick 
out of you two," said Sally.
" Tinkie Winkie, come over here please," said Donatello. Tinkie Winkie walked 
over. Donatello took out two gloves and two shoes.
" Put these mittens...." said Donatello, but before he could finish Tinkie 
Winkie had put them on his ears.
" Fun!" said Tinkie Winkie jumping up and down.
" Tinkie Winkie, they go on your hands, and these go on your feet!" said 
Donatello. Tinkie Winkie put both items on.
" So how are we going to test this thing?" asked Sally.
" Ah, Tinkie Winkie, walk up that wall!" said Donatello. Tinkie Winkie turned 
around and walked towards the wall. He put one foot on the wall and then one 
hand, Tinkie Winkie started to walk up the wall, and Antoine opened his mouth.
" That's impossible," said Antoine.
"  It's not impossible for Donatello," said Iain.
" Ok Tinkie Winkie walk back down," said Donatello. Tinkie Winkie started to 
come back down, but just when he was near the floor, he fell down and went 
splat.
" Oh, that's fun too!" said Tinkie Winkie.
" Apart from that glitch Donatello, good work!" said Sally.
" Thank you your highness!" said Donatello.
" It's Sally Donatello!" said Sally.
" Sorry Sally," said Donatello. Lem came in with a piece of paper.
" Excuse me, Iain, we seem to be having problems with our weather look-outs. It 
seems we're reading a storm coming on towards us in the next hour," said Lem 
then handing the paper to Iain.
" That's odd, it doesn't seem like they're going to be one," said Iain. 
" Sally...." said Nicole quickly.
" What is it?" asked Sally.
" I forgot," said Nicole then a burst of lighting banged out. " Oh yeah, we 
having a storm, all systems are going haywire."
 " Thanks for telling Nicole, we need to see what major damage is going on," 
said Iain.
" I know what could be a problem, the main computer where Nicole's systems files 
are!" said Donatello.
" Ok, then let's find the problem," said Sally. They all left except for Antoine 
who went over and look at the boots.
" ANTIONE!" shouted Iain.
" Coming," said Antoine who rushed out of the room.

  Iain and the others got the second back up. Donatello removed the panel, and 
looked inside. The others were checking everything else.
 " There doesn't seem to be that much damage," said Donatello. The back up blew 
up, and a bolt of Lighting hit Sally crown, Sally jiggled around. She then 
stopped. 
 " Are you okay Sally?" said Lem.
" No, but the shuttle was good, the shuttle was good because it was late, and 
you thought it will be on time, but no. The shuttle was late!" said Sally 
started to dance around.
" What on earth?" said Iain.
" I can explain, the only metal thing within two metres of the panel was Sally's 
crown on her head, and now she having some fun with all the systems and voices," 
said Donatello. Sally started to do riverdance.
" I am the lord of the dance said me and I'll lead you all, wherever you might 
be and I'll lead you all in the dance said me!" sung Sally who then dancing into 
the super-computer room. Dipsy was watching her prance around like a prat.
" Ooh, Sally do dance," said Dipsy.
" Time for tubby bye-bye, time for tubby bye-bye!" said Sally.
" Runaway!" shouted Dipsy who got off his seat and ran out of the room only to 
hit Lem coming in. Sally was then giving an other bolt of electricity, she got 
so blown up that she fainted and fell backwards on to the floor.
" Hey guys, I found Sally and she fainted!" cried Lem getting and then standing. 
Lem picked up a glass of water and threw it over Sally. She woke up when it hit 
her face, she panicked then opened her eyes.
" LEM!" said Sally.
" Hey, I've got you up haven't I?" said Lem. The other rushed in.
" Good work Lem, now what on earth happen with the systems in this castle?" said 
Iain typing in some numbers on the keypad of Nicole's computer.
" Nicole show signs for anything that happen!" said Sally who walked up behind 
Iain.
" Signs show that the time drive is frozen in time, that is all!" said Nicole. 
Iain and Sally looked at each other and then Donatello.
" Didn't you say you fixed it Donatello?" asked Iain.
" Yes, but when the storm started it must have gone wrong again, I'll fixed that 
in the morning!"
" Fine, what time is it anyway?" asked Iain. Sally looked at her watch.
" My watch is frozen!" Sally said trying to get it to work.
" NICOLE!" shouted Iain.
" Sorry, all clock are frozen!" said Nicole.
" Fine, let's get to sleep, anything happens I will be in here with the 
Teletubies and Lem," said Iain.
" Me?" asked Lem.
" Yes!" said Iain.
" I might as well stay!" said Donatello. " I've go to fix some parts of Nicole."
   
  It was around 10 o' clock; Iain was sitting at a table reading his book. Lem 
was playing a game of cards on the Teletubies and Donatello was fixing Nicole. 
Donatello was in Nicole's databanks trying to fix some broken memory.
 " That one is damaged, that one too, my god. There are around twenty databanks 
damaged and by the time I'm done another ten could be damaged!" said Donatello 
who put in a few memory circuits in their place.
" I can't blame Nicole, that storm is causing all of these problems," said Iain.
" Yeah, and my and just beginning!" said Lem looking at his cards.
" What do you mean?" asked Iain who walked over, Lem showed him his cards, Iain 
smiled and patted him on the back.
" What ya got Dipsy?" asked Lem.
" I've got one King, one jack and two spades!" said Dipsy putting his cards 
down.
" I've got four spades, not in Order" said Poh.
" Hooray de LaaLaa I got 2 kings and two jacks," said LaaLaa dancing around and 
then showing the cards.
" Fun, diamonds, in order. Two, three, four, and five," said Tinkie Winkie 
putting them down.
" DAMM IT!" shouted Lem who threw his cards across the table and ending up in 
Tinkie Winkie's mouth. He removed them and looked at them.
" There're all aces!" said Tinkie Winkie.
" I KNOW, I GET THE TUBBY TOASTER. YES!" shouted Lem who pressed the pink button 
and out popped tubby toast. Knuckles came into the room.
 " Sally, what is the answer to four down?" asked Knuckles. There was a paused. 
Everybody looked.
" I don't think that's the answer," said Knuckles.
" Er, Knuckles...." said Iain. But was interrupted.
" Why? Because it has three R's and five A's," said Knuckles. " Never mind, the 
publishers must have got it wrong," and with that he left. Sally came in; she 
was in her dressing gown ready for bed.
" Hi guys, what going on?" asked Sally.
" Oh, Lem just won a tubby toast machine and Donatello is still fixing Nicole 
and Knuckles..." Knuckles came in.
" Sally, what is the answer to four down?" said Knuckles. Iain, the Teletubbies, 
Lem and Donatello opened their mouths.
" Let's see, a stupid responsible idiot. Lem?" said Sally taking the paper out 
of Knuckles hands.
" I RESENT THAT!" shouted Lem.
" I don't think that's the answer," said Knuckles.
" Why not, it basically seems to be the answer?" said Sally handing the paper 
back to Knuckles.
" Why? Because it has three R's and five A's," said Knuckles and again was 
finished off with. " Never mind, the publishers must have got it wrong." Said 
Knuckles and again left the room.
" HANG ON KNUCKLES, GET YOUR BUTT BACK IN HERE!" shouted Iain.
" What, I haven't done anything wrong!" said Knuckles coming back in.
" Yeah, what has he done wrong?" asked Sally.
" Around three minutes ago, Knuckles came in and said the same things as he did 
right now, just you weren't there!" said Donatello.
" Whatsthat?" asked LaaLaa.
" Shut up, hopefully Nicole should have playback on line. NICOLE!" said Iain.
" Yes?" said Nicole.
" Playback what just happen five minutes ago, and don't put on the Playboy 
Channel because it is not Playback," said Iain. 
" Anyway who put that on there?" asked Sally. Everybody looked at Lem.
" IT WASN'T ME, DUCKMAN PUT IT ON WHEN HE CAME HERE TO STAY FOR THE WEEK WITH MY 
RADIO STATION," shouted Lem.
" Fine!" said Sally. They looked at the playback, there was Knuckles talking to 
himself and then leaving and then coming in when Sally was in the room and 
leaving. Iain stopped the playback and turned his head to Sally.
" How could Knuckles be in two places at one time?" asked Iain.
" I wasn't there three minutes ago, I was with Noo-noo playing tidy up the 
place," said Knuckles.
" Oh Noo-noo!" said Iain, Noo-noo rolled in. 
" Was Knuckles with you three minutes ago?" asked Iain. Noo-noo turned around 
five times.
" That's yes!" said Iain. Lem kicked Noo-noo out of the window.
" I don't think that was needed Lem!" said Sally.
" He's a Wally anyway!" said Lem.

 The night went past and soon came morning Iain had fallen asleep on the table, 
Lem had retired to his room, the Teletubbies were sleeping on the floor and 
Donatello was asleep in the hallway. Sonic came in scratching himself, he 
noticed the others and walked over to the window where Noo-noo took off and 
smashed himself on the floor. Sonic turned round and saw Dipsy getting up.
 " Dipsy slept like lamp-post!" said Dipsy.
" No, like a dog!" said Sonic who corrected him.
" Oh!" said Dipsy who jumped up. Sonic opened the door to leave and saw Iain 
standing there. HANG ON, Iain had fallen asleep on the table.
 " Where's my gun, Lem have you seen my gun," said the Iain in the doorway. 
Sonic slammed the door, Dipsy opened it and Iain was gone. 
" Dispy know that weird!" said Dipsy nodding.
" HUH, WHAT WAS THAT JENNY?" shouted Iain jumping up.
" Oh shut up about that Cat!" said Sonic. The door opened Jenny poked her head 
in.
" I'm trying to sleep," said Jenny, Dipsy slammed the door.
" DIPSY!" shouted Iain and Sonic.
" Hey, it's like that and that's the way it is..." said Dipsy but before he 
could say 'Huh' Iain threw him out of the window and landed on Noo-noo and then 
shouted "HUH!" Dipsy shouted in pain.
" That's enough of that song!" said Iain.  Iain opened the door and left. Sonic 
got a glass of water a threw it over Lem. Lem jumped up and tripped up over Poh.
" YAH!" said Lem with a thump
" Oh who cares you and your stupid head, Iain just a few mintues ago you came 
through that door and shouted where's my gun," said Sonic.
" Then Jenny poked her head in and I slammed the door," said Dipsy coming back 
into the room. Sonic and Iain looked at each other both looking pissed off.

 Bunnie was sitting on the bench when she herd a bang and then a clang. Dipsy 
fell into the tree and then fell into the flowers. She turned around and noticed 
him. Dipsy was lying with his face in the ground.
 " Sugar , if ya want to be a flower plant yourself in the dirty mud not put 
your face in the dirty mud!
" Dipsy can't move!" said Dipsy. Bunnie turned around and sighed. Sally came 
along and sat down next to Bunnie.
" Hi Bunnie, what were you looking at?" she said. Bunnie looked around and then 
looked at Sally.
" That!" she said. They both turned around, Dipsy's face was still in the mud!
" Can you help me out!" he said.
" Er.... No!" said Sally.


Sonic and Iain looked out of the window. They saw Dipsy still stuck.. Then sonic 
noticed something else Lem was stuck in the tree and Lem was  in the same room 
and Sonic.
 " Hey , Sal. Lem's smashed himself into that tree," shouted Sonic.
" Huh," Sally turned and looked at the tree. Lem wasn't there at all.
"  Sonic, if you said Lem was there and he isn't. Are you going insane?" said 
Sally.
" SAL!" shouted Sonic.
" Sally, have you noticed anything changing a lot around here today?" said Iain.
" Well, apart from last night. The only different thing is that Dipsy has his 
face in the mud." said Sally.
" HELP ME PLEASE!" shouted Dipsy.
" Thanks Sal!" shouted Sonic.
 Lem had now got up. Sonic turned around and Iain did too.
" Lem, find Donatello he's got some explaining to do!" said Iain.
" But, Donatello is over here," said Lem as he pointed at Donatello. Iain stood 
there looking like a idoit.
" Yeah, I knew that!" Lem shook Donatello.
" Whaa who WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO HURT ME!" shouted Donatello.
" I'm not, I'm getting you up," said Lem.
" Tinkie Winkie awake," said the purple Teletubbie said. Then he was thrown out 
of the window.
" Donatello, we've have now three futuer sightings, what on bloddy hell is going 
on!" said Sonic.
" We gotta to do something man, or we could be doomed," said Lem as a hippie. 
Iain grabbed his neck and threw him out. Lem hit the tree.
" Hey Sonic, we've found Lem!" shouted Sally. Sonic put his hand to his head.


 It was mid-morning, Donatello was looking at the time drive. He noticed that 
the date had frozen. It read, 12/5/98. And yesterday, still read the same date. 
Donatello opened the main compact unit.
He looked inside and noticed some wiries looked to be fine. Donatello closed it 
up again, he sighed and turned.
" I checked it, the date's frozen and everything else is fine!"
" What about that storm we had last night could that be the case?" asked Sonic.
" It could but I doubt it!" Donatello said back.
" All I know is Iain is going to look for his gun at sometime!" said Sonic. Lem 
ran in.
" My cookies are gone, my cookies are gone, help me!" he said. He stood there 
still.
" LEM!" shouted Donatello. Lem said nothing, he turned around and ran away!.
" That was another," said Sonic. Donatello walked toward Nicole.
" NICOLE, what is wrong with time at this moment?" he asked.
" Due to the storm at the castle, the time here is increasing itslef into the 
futuer and when you see other people who don't respond are futuer voices." 
" Future voices?" said Donatello and Sonic together.
" Yes, it hasn't happened yet but will due to the near future!" said Nicole. 
Sonic and Donatello looked at the time drive.
" I think we got to wait until the drive mends itslef!" said Sonic.
" I agree!" said Donatello. "But first...."
" Has anybody seen my cookie? My cookies are gone, my cookies are gone, help 
me!" shouted Lem.
" Lem's in a mood, let's leave!" said Donatello. Sonic nodded. The both ran out.
" Hey, what's got up your tree!" said Lem who turned to the floor. " Cookies?"

 Iain was looking around the super computer for his gun, Tinkie Winkie was 
checking what was in his bag. And Dipsy had manage to climb back up and started 
washing his-self.
Sonic and Donatello walked in. Donatello got back to fixing the tubby toaster he 
was given. Sally came in also.
" Exucse guys, but have anybody seen Dips, he's not in the mud anymore!" said 
Sally.
" I'm over here," said Dipsy. Sally turned and looked at him as if it was werid.
" Solve the time-crisis?" asked Iain.
" We just let it mend it's self, there's no harm..."said Donatello but suddenly.
" ARRRRRRRRRRRRGHGHGHGHGHGH" screamed Lem, he rushed in and grabbed Sonic.
" YOUR GONNA DIE!" he shouted.
" DIE??" they all said.
" Sonic going to die, poor Sonic, BIG HUG!" shouted Dipsy.
" Get away!"said Sonic. " Lem, now could you tell me why your screaming and then 
why am I going to die?" Sonic said.
" Ok, I screamed because I found you are going to die in a huge explosion!" Said 
Lem.
" Thank you for saying that!" said Sonic. 
" Hey Nicole you got that piece of film," said Lem.
" Which one, the time you fell into Sally's arms or the one where Sonic dies?" 
said Nicole.
" 2!" said Lem.
 They saw Sonic runing towards a power-supply and re-wire the system, then as he 
turned away. BOOOM!
" Oh crap!" said Sonic.

 Sonic was laying on his bed, un-happy of what was going to happen to him. There 
was a knock at his door.
Sonic got off the bed and opened the door. Antione was there holding a mesuring 
tape!
" How long is arm?" he asked.
" WHY?" said Sonic.
" I preparing a death suite for your coffin!" he said smiling. Sonic looked at 
him and shut the the door and walked over back to his bed and lied down.
The phone rung, he pick it up.
" What? NO YOU CAN'T. I STILL ALIVE AND MARRIED THANK YOU VERY MUCH!" he put the 
phone down.
" Now bloody Captain wants my collection of hot-dogs," said Sonic.  The Nicole 
monitor came up.
" There's a emergency at the power supply, can you fix it," Nicole said. Sonic 
paused, there was no way of changing time,he had to do it.
" I'm Coming!" he said. 

Iain was reading a book and Sally had her head on her arms. Lem was eating some 
cookies.
 " What are we going to do, Sonic going to die!" she said.
" If you don't want Sonic to die, try to kill someone else!" said Lem.
" No, but that crazy art teacher should be killed," said Iain. The art teacher 
came in wearing his specs, he walked over to where Lem was.
" Another piece of art!" he said. He then left.
" I'm letting the guards do that tomorrow!" said Sally. She started to cry. Iain 
put down his book.
" This is not the time to cry! Besides it's not going anything is it!" said 
Iain.
" Oh,so why not. Sonic is going to die, and I'm going to be a widow!" Sally said 
by putting her head on the table.
" There are widow benifits!" said Iain.
" Really, I didn't know that!" said Sally who stopped crying but then continue." 
But that's not going to stop him dying is it!"
" Oh sorry about that," said Iain. Sonic came in and took a screw-driver and a 
wire cutter.
" And where do you think your going?" Lem asked.
" To fix and die my friend!" said Sonic. Sally stopped him.
" You can't die!" said Sally.
" Who cares as long as that art teacher doesn't give me a bloody head-ache!" 
said Sonic. The art teacher came back in.
" A sad piece of art," he said sad and walked out.
" That guy is really getting on my nerves!" said Iain.
" Who cares," said Sonic. Sally kissed him.
" Bye!" she said. Sonic left. Sally fell over. Lem look down.
" Oi, watch out for my cookies!"

Sonic walked towards the power-point in the super computer room. He found the 
point and opened it up by using a screw-driver.
" Ok, Nicole. Take me through." he said.
" Cut the yellow wire," said Nicole. Sonic did that.
" Next!" he said.
" Green wire, blue wire," she said. Sonic cut the two wires.
" There's three left," Sonic said.
" Connect the red wire to the blue wire and yello to the green," said Nicole. 
Sonic paused.
" Is that right," he said.
" YES IT IS YOUR STUPID PILLOCK!" said Nicole. Sonic shrugged and connected the 
wires.
" Good, now cut the brown wire," he did that.
" Now press the re-turn button and hope for the best," she said. Sonic breathed 
hardly. He pressed it. He closed his eyes. He opened them again, all the point 
did was sayin was, Normal!
" Thank god for that!" said Sonic.

Iain and Lem layed Sally on the couch. Sonic came back in.
" I'M GONNA LIVE," said Sonic.
" That's nice. Now talk to that old man!" said Iain. Sonic turned round, and saw 
an blue hedgehog with a beard.
" Who are you?" Sonic asked.
" I'm you but about at the age of sixty!" he said.
" SIXTY!" said Sonic.
" Yes, but that isn't important. You saw your-self died didn't you." Sonic 
nodded.
" Good, and you just went a fixed a power-point didn't ya in the computer room!"
" Yes,but who died!"
" Your grandson!" he said. 
" Grandson, GRANDSON!!!" said Sonic amazed.
" Yes!"
" So why are you talking to me!" said Sonic.
" Because there an't much time. Soon you will go blind, and you want see him at 
all! Sograb that camera and run to your bedroom," said the old man.Sonic picked 
it up. He turned around, the hedgehog wasn't there anymore.
Sonic sped off. Iain looked behind him.
"OK LEAVE YOUR WIFE TO BE SAD!" said Iain. "Lem, follow him!" said Iain. Lem 
jumped up and ran off.

Sonic arrived at his bedroom. Lem had catched up. Sonic opened the door and saw 
a blue hedgehog with two childern, one a hedgehog the other a squrriel.
" Hey, Sonic. These are your grand-childern. Jack and Jill!"   
" Don't stand there, take a picture you stupid wally!" said Lem. Sonic took the 
picture.

A day later Donatello was checking the time-drive. The date now read 13/05/98. 
Sonic was sitting next to him.
" So it's back to normal," said Sonic. Donatello nodded.
" Yep, but what happened in your bedroom," said Donatello. Sonic looked at him.
" I don't know, I don't think it's the futuer at all," said Sonic. 
" Sonic, you can't change time," said Donatello.
" Oh yes, I can. Because I know what's in store," said Sonic and he left. 
Donatello looked at the trime-drive.
" Loulsy piece of junk!"


             THE END
