[[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] and [[Ruth]] awaken in the dark and meet [[the Epoch]], who task them with watching the adventures of two other versions of themselves in two other possible [[reality|realities]] and determining which Benny and which Ruth is real. The Epoch reveal that they have mapped and remapped the [[solar system]] to identify threats to themselves and have learnt that they will face Benny at the beginning and end of time. | [[Bernice Summerfield|Benny]] and [[Ruth]] awaken in the dark and meet [[the Epoch]], who task them with watching the adventures of two other versions of themselves in two other possible [[reality|realities]] and determining which Benny and which Ruth is real. The Epoch reveal that they have mapped and remapped the [[solar system]] to identify threats to themselves and have learnt that they will face Benny at the beginning and end of time. | ||
On prehistoric [[Earth]], the second Benny and Ruth encounter both [[dinosaur]]s and [[caveman|cavemen]], who have a [[mobile phone]]. The cavemen rip Benny apart and intend on doing the same to Ruth, but the Benny and Ruth with the Epoch shut down that reality to spare that Ruth from an agonising death. | |||
The third | The third Benny and Ruth take a [[taxi]] in [[Victorian era|Victorian]] [[London]] to the [[White Rabbit (London)|White Rabbit]] in the hopes of learning of possible [[anachronism]]s, but something spooks the [[horse]] and the [[carriage]] falls over, trapping them both inside. [[Jack McSpringheel|Jack]] joins them and [[Anaesthesia|anaesthetises]] Benny with a [[kiss]] before taking Ruth and leaping to the roof of [[St Paul's Cathedral|St Paul's]], where he shows her his [[biomechanical data glove]] that can only be used by members of the crew of the [[shuttle]] to [[Zordin]]. Using the glove, Ruth creates an interdimensional tear which Jack pushes her into. | ||
' | This Ruth appears with the Benny and Ruth with the Epoch and hands over the glove. Benny pulls the lever to destroy the Epoch's reality, correctly believing that the Epoch would never expect her to do so, and switches off the barrier separating the solar system from the rest of the universe, returning everything to normal. She tells the Ruths to return to London, join Jack and use the Zordin shuttle to return home, but the glove only has enough [[battery]] power to send one of them there. Benny planned to enter a [[stasis chamber]] and wait outside of time for the world to be restored, but insists that the remaining Ruth takes it instead and gets help from her past self and [[Jason Kane|Jason]]. Ruth refuses, however, and locks Benny in the chamber. | ||
Benny is resuscitated on [[Mars Base Grantham Echo 4]] in [[2616]], which was later than she intended. The chamber has a message for her from a version of [[Irving Braxiatel|Braxiatel]] other than the one that she worked with on the [[Braxiatel Collection]] and who invites her to join him on [[Legion (planet)|Legion]]. Before he can pass on a message from [[Peter Summerfield|Peter]], the recording ends. Later, after Benny has headed for Legion, a second person in the chamber is resuscitated. | |||
