Agent McKinnon stayed her hand, “It won’t be necessary, Ms. Pieszecki. I think we’ve heard all we needed to hear.”
“Wait a minute,” Helena shrieked. “You cannot be serious. I have the evidence. I have proof. I’m a witness.”
Alice wisely didn’t say anything, waiting for the FBI to dismiss her. Agent Johnson glanced at the fuming Helena and whispered something to his partner. Agent McKinnon nodded. “Ms. Pieszecki, you are free to go. If you see Ms. Porter outside, would you please ask her to wait for a moment?”
Alice nodded, relieved that they didn’t pushed any further and hopefully believed her crazy rant. She quickly stood, grabbed her enormous purse and left as quickly as she could without actually running. She staggered into a woman’s bathroom to compose herself.
The FBI agents stepped out to talk to Professor Kroll who was patiently waiting in the lobby. Helena was still enraged as she walked out, muttering obscenities when she saw Bette and Tina sitting closely on the bench outside of the FBI building.
They barely noticed her when she approached the bench and it made Helena even more furious. “You think your little plan worked? Sorry to disappoint but it has failed,” she said spitefully. “You just got a break, that’s it. I know everything. You won’t get away with this.”
“What are you talking about, Helena?” Bette asked calmly. “Plan…what plan?”
“There are more things I didn’t tell to the FBI or to that idiot Kroll,” Helena almost looked triumphant. “While you were unconscious, Tina…and once again…not my doing…you were mumbling a lot. Most of it was incoherent but there were a few things that made some sense…or as much sense as any words thrown together would. I put two and two together so I know you didn’t make things up about time travel to mess with me. There was an actual time travel and Bette was the one doing the traveling.”
Tina sighed and shook her head at Helena, “You really lost us, Helena. What are you accusing us of?”
“Time travel?” Bette looked at Helena with a frown. “What time travel?”
“Stop pretending that you don’t know what I am talking about,” Helena could hardly contain her frustration. When neither of them spoke, she took a deep breath and folded her arms. “There’s one more thing I kept to myself. A letter from the past.”

Thank you for the chapter!
But ohhh – no. I’m hopping Candace grabbing not Bette’s hand, but Helena’s. Both brunettes, both in dark cloaks. It could be, isn’t it?
Please post soon, we need epilogue ASAP! :)
it’s coming up on 01/20, a special day for me, so stay tune…and thank you for reading and commenting, i really appreciate this
Well, today already 01/20 :)
I should’ve been more clear: 1/20 in the evening because i was born at 8 pm so this is my b-day present to myself LOL
Happy Birthday then :)
Happy Birthday! Going to go read the epilogue. Thanks for this story – I’ve enjoyed it and will miss it.
Yes, i agree we need next part to know what happened with our girls!
Please, post soon!
And i also hope it wasn’t Bette’s hand!
Is this really the end? Not exactly a happily ever after ending in my opinion….
I think Alice’s explanation to the FBI is perfectly feasible. I would think that the FBI would have not put their criminal investigators on a case of claimed time travel but a special division who dealt with phenomena which were rumored to exist for which was not generally accept principles of nature – such as flying sauces, Big Foot, time travel, and aliens, etc. I would expect that the FBI would treat people like Helena and the Professor as slightly off their rocker…but this is fiction.
Now… I’m not sure that Bette and Tina have much control on where this portal takes them, but I assume its a single opening and a single exit. And reading about life in the 19th century and living it are two different things. Living in a community without electricity, indoor pluming, shoes designed to be worn on a left or right foot, no communication devices, and a life where the vast majority of time is spent acquiring money or food. A society where women are not just 2nd class citizens but for the most house holds domestic servants to men. A society in which homosexual attraction has to be hidden and never acknowledged even to the closest family member. And of course, the skill set need by Bette and Tina to survive? Being odd is not going to be their only problem. I’m not sure when you look at how hard that life would be, that running from the likes of Helena, Candace and the Professor is not a much better option.
Your story is unique and has been very entertaining. I for one have found the concept of time travel to be fascinating. But the thought of going to a time that was not my own and be trapped indefinitely would be terrifying. Bette finding Tina was her saving grace and was the only way she could truly survive the experience. But even this was not permenant, Bette had some ability to go back and then return. But my understanding is that the portal closes permanently with this last trip. At least that is what the Professor is predicting based on some science principles which have yet to be tested much less proven.
I know you have spent years writing this. I do appreciate it. I do hope that you do an epilogue and not leave us with a cliffhanger as to what actually happened. Our girls deserve a happy, peaceful and normal life.
Thanks for the story…
Thank you for the insightful comment. Yes, the last chapter was not the actual finale, that’s why the epilogue is coming up. Apart from being a teaser (a little bit ;) ) I also wanted to stay true to my story (the way some of my chapters were structured in the past.) Thank you for reading, i really appreciate it
I knew it was too good to be true that it was the end of the story !
Haha, you put that idea into my head when you suggested 50 parts of the finale. Alas, i can only manage 4. The epilogue is coming and that will a final end to the story. I really appreciate your comments. Honestly, one of the earlier comments you made (maybe 10-15 chapters ago (which probably puts it 5 years ago LOL), is one of the reasons that made me going…the other reason that i’m a stubborn foreigner that wouldn’t just never give up…thank you
What a gloriously intriguing masterpiece! Alice is fab in this one. Loving it and worth the time to await each chap!!!! BRAVA!!!!!!
Thank you, that was much needed words of encouragement…i really appreciate the comment.
