The Twelve

This is bad, we made direct contact with number 1. Actually this could be good. I know her face now but she's on to us. Imagine the worst case scenario she knows for a fact. Me and Adam are the time travelers even if it's a stretch it's not too far from the truth. That leads into problem 2 she's after Little Adam none of us have a clue where he is but if 1 gets to him who knows what will happen. The fact is she still thinks Little Me is trapped in The White Void. We have the jump on her and we can use this element of surprise. I tell her it's fine and we should go back home. I want to make sure we're on the same page with this new information. I also wanted to investigate something.

I told "When we get home I want you to tell me about each of the twelve" She nods and Adam doesn't have any objections. First I need to go over what we already know we have met 1,12 and the one that sent us to the real world. We never made contact but the lady at the counter mentioned 4. I know 3 out of 12 I knew this was going to be a long explanation. I prepare myself for what's about to happen.

We made it home and Little Me asked for paper and pencil. I get her some and we all sit at a table. Little Me starts to write and explain the twelve to us. "I'll explain briefly first then answer any questions when I'm done is there any objections." Me and Adam both nodded agreeing then she put the pencil on the paper and started explaining "Number 1 is our biggest threat. She controls the order and can do whatever she wants with us. Number 2 is the transporter from the land of time to the real world which would be problematic if we didn't have the time machine . Number 3 is the person who watches over the real world. Don't be alarmed though the world is huge the chances of him finding us is very slim. Number 4 is the man who rules over the white void sending criminals to various levels. Number 5 and Number 6 were tasked with keeping the hour glass in check but now that time has fallen they are no were to be found. Number 7 replaced them for the time being making sure the glass was still intact. Number 8 gives us energy. He's the reason the buses move in the land of time and not in the real world. Number 9 makes the building the hotels, hospitals etc. Number 10 runs most of the hospitals behind the scenes but I didn't see him at the place Adam worked at. Number 11... died when you two showed up. I don't know who she was or what she did but I know she's not with us anymore. Then there's 12 the man at the bottom of the glass. Any questions."

I wanted her to elaborate on 11. She looked like she'd know more about her then she let on. I still don't want to break trust between her and Adam. It's obvious she didn't tell us for a reason. I looked at the chart again and asked my questions "Can the twelve die of natural causes like getting stab suffocation etc?" She squeezed her palms together and nodded. I knew my next course of action I asked her "Does number 3 have any sort of pattern that would make him easier to track." Little Me looked scared but Adam smirked. I think they both knew what I was about to say and Adam commented "Good idea but I already thought about that. Cars don't work here unlike The Land of Time even if he had his location pinpointed we couldn't get to him." I sat down for a little bit then came up with an Idea "Can we lead 3 to us I don't know if he walks or what but if we can somehow get him to our location we can work on a plan from there."

She thought about it for a little told us "We can lead him here directly." We all gather around and listened to Little Me's plan she said "What I have learned 3 cannot sense are location but he can teleport to us if we can get enough attention on our self we can lure him." I sat down and thought about what can really stick out, something crazy, something loud. Sounds like nothing moves here there's nothing blocking it if we make a loud enough sound maybe we can reach wherever 3 is. I told this idea to the rest of them. Adam thought for a little and said "That could work but it might be a problem. I don't really understand how his teleportation works he might be too quick to capture us and if he can teleport at will there's a chance we can't even catch him." he turned to Little Me and asked "Do you know how his teleportation works" Little Me nodded and said "He teleports right in front of the person in question but it takes a lot out of him he shouldn't be able to teleport immediately but I don't know how long it takes for him to recharge."

Little me has been strangely cooperative recently. Don't get me wrong it's not a problem but I feel like something off. That doesn't matter right now back to the plan of action. When 3 teleports he won't be able to do it again for a while plus he can die in the same ways we do. Best course of action would be capture and threaten.

Even if we do manage to capture him he's only temporary. He'll get his strength back eventually. The plan is flawed but I think we can work with it. So how are we going to go about it? Adam spoke up and came up with a plan "Will split up go into separate rooms then make the noise if 3 teleports it will only be in front of one of us. When he does will ambush and capture him and make him talk.

It can work but what sound can go far enough. I told them my plan "We should use an instrument , preferably percussion. It's loud and shouldn't be affected by time and is easy to access." They both agreed. This idea could work. I know it can. I wanted to mention one more thing. "Before we go we have to decide what were going to ask 3 we have a limited time and I want to know what questions we have to ask before hand."

We thought about it for a moment then Adam spoke." I should ask about 1 and 12 some sort of weakness or trait we can take advantage of if we have those two wrapped around our fingers. Fixing time should be easy." I was actually thinking something a little different. I told them "I was actually thinking what if instead we teamed up with 1 and 12."

*No question for me this time runout if ideas. But if you guys have question for me I would love to answer them*
