Police sirens can be heard on the distance, before the sounds of other cars screeching near can be heard, and a moment later the more restrained, but still audible quick 'tsup' sounds, the automatic firing going frantic for a moment, but then stopping. A moment later, there was a blast, and the apartment's remaining, secondary window to a small bathroom literally flew off its holding, throwing smoke and shrapnel all around.<br/><br/>There seemed to be a silence after that, but almost ominous one. <br/><br/>Ada could see someone approaching her. <br/><br/>J7 could see the woman from his vision, alive, and with a strange belt around her hips.<br/><br/>The prototype used for the first -portable- fusion-power-device. In the original time-line that J7 was from, they never got that working. The power of fusion required massive complexes, for years, and even those were not invented for quite some time. So having one here now was out of place, out of time.<br/><br/>At that time a nearby car's theft-alarm began to ring, as falling fern from the apartment's window-still crashed in through the wind-shield by sheer weight, denting the surface with its weight under the impact.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><strong>Paradox (NYC)</strong><br/><br/>J7 felt a little crestfallen, this attempt to shift the timeline only seeming to have a little success. As far as he knew only one thing had changed- the woman was clear of the apartments now. He had arrived too late to truly change anything but something else did.<br/><br/>Rushing up, he takes a moment in his timeframe to reach out and try and bump someone elses as well. If it worked, Time would seem to slow to a crawl.<br/><br/>"<strong>Alright, not a total failure. At least one less person died this time. I think I can live with that.<br/><br/>I'll get you out of here, but you need to tell me everything you know about the prototype. I guess I go by Paradox now.</strong>"
