I sit with the other time travelers and Josie who is taking care of caterpillars as Ella starts to cry in pain, a trail of whimpering falling out of her mouth as she traces an injury she didn't know she had on her shoulder, Hunter's fists closing up and eyes closing as he says "ouch" thats barely hearable. I see Ty and Ella's 6 mouth in the future self starting to drift off as the Ella from 2 mouths comes in with her version of Hunter, his self running to the present day Hunter. Josie takes the caterpillars out and puts them on the table, both of them eating leaves, and she sits down as Ella stops the whimpering and Hunter stops the cringing.

"Finally getting your memories back of 3 nights ago?" Zap asks as he starts to pat his brother on the back, Ella getting no affection at all though she was the one who got an injury.

Both Ella and Hunter nod their heads. "I forgot my memories, I regained them, spoke in front of a lot of people, had a flash forward due to one of my future selves, turned into a butterfly, had an argument with one of my closer friends, hit with a sword while time traveling, almost died for the 2nd time, saved a person from mind control, my birthday, and got my Hybrid powers on the same day," Ella says reciting everything that happened on the 6th.

"That wasn't all that happened, you escaped the building that with lasers and more then 20 people with different weapons all in your human form while Hunter captured one of his future selves while you saved yours," I say as I look at the caterpillars finish eating. "Josie when do you think they will be able to talk to us and fight?"

"In a few minutes time, they should be able to do basic Human things and then change into butterflies on Saturday, meaning that they should be fighting, flying, and using their powers on Sunday. Remember I did alter their genes with help from you so they will have their own voice and personality along with the shielded wings. They are going to be very smart butterflies so they should help us out a little bit in the battle," Josie says as the caterpillars start to fall asleep. "One good thing is that they can't die from humans, only from disease unless that was in the original DNA."

"It is, I injected my Ella with the flu, E. coli, and chicken pox and she fought E. coli for only 1 day while she was immune to the other two," Hunter from 6 mouths says as he picks up a caterpillar. "Should we name them since they are like people?"

"I think River for the girl," Ella says.

"I like Flame for the boy," Hunter says.

"So which ones which?" I ask.

"The one that has red strips is Flame while River has blue strips," Josie says as she brings the butterfly habit over, Skylar noticing the misspelling and incorrect spoken words of habitat as everybody called it "habit."

I see the two butterflies in the "habit" along with the two caterpillars who have started to speak as I get out flash drives which can pull genes and decode them, telling what traits the gene has. Carefully I pick up the caterpillars with the two butterflies, the two butterflies acting as teachers to the little caterpillars as they start to speak human words instead of butterfly words which is a thing because Josie had to read out that the two butterflies could speak English in butterfly form. I place them were all the time travelers along with Josie could see them and I start to ask Ella and Hunter about the caterpillars as I notice Ty and future Ella from 6 mouths are asleep.

"So how are we going to reverse this sleeping thing with the 3 of them?" Hunter asks as he flaps his little, mostly orange wings while pointing to present day Ella, Ty, and 6 mouth Ella.

"I could make something up, like a serum or potion," I say as I pick up the two butterflies, both of them walking around on my palm. "How does that sound?"
