Still shaking slightly Alan arose unsteadily to his feet. Teetering Alan was surprised when Helga grabbed him guiding him to a couch. Shaking his head he got a moment of clarity then it was gone. “As much as I have increased the last few weeks this shouldn’t have wore me out as badly.” Alan stated.

“Alan you are delving into several areas of repairing the mind. Just because you can easily do one thing does not automatically make the others easy! Humph! Like I remember your mother saying earlier, for one so smart there are times you can be soo stupid!” Helga said exasperated with her hands on her hips.

Alan looked up at her with a weak smile as he felt the energy slowly seep back into him. “At least now I have all of you strong enough that the son of a bitch can’t do this to any of you.” Then he stared at Helga, “everyone that is except you Helga. I know I fixed a lot in you but this I never checked, may I?”

Her eyes large Helga nodded then she held up her hand. “I think that you should rest some before you do this Alan. I don’t want to be the reason you are unconscious again for a day or two! Your mother and I were good friends so I don’t want to do something to hurt her.”

“Well! At least someone cares about other people’s feelings!” Angelika said as she was staring hard at Alan.

“Hey! I told you I was sorry besides after what I did you are a lot stronger than you were!” Alan cried out, the hurt apparent in his voice.

“Yes, yes I know you are the good son always thinking of your mama! I just have a bone to pick with you about the way you go about it is all!” Angelika said a small smirk on her face. This of course started Truda, Madde, and Helga into a round of giggling. Throwing his arms up again Alan decided not to fight it. He’d already lost, no point in giving them more ammunition to use against him later!

Sighing Alan motioned for Truda and Varick as soon as the giggling stopped. “I need all of you to work on Madde and Uncle Emory. Afraid I need more rest than I thought.” Both nodded then got a serious look on their faces.

“I’m just worried that we might miss something Alan.” Varick told him.

“I have the same fear. You seemed to blanket everything, you made it look easy.” Truda replied.

“As you can see it was anything but easy. I am hoping since you both have had power longer than I, you can handle this at a slower rate. I don’t want to give that asshole a single advantage!” Alan told them then with a sigh nodded and closed his eyes.

Again as before Alan was flying stopping inside the now familiar defunct bunker where all this had started. Looking down he saw that once again he was at the beginning. Then he saw his own image as it appeared the times he’d visited before. ‘Strange, ‘ he thought, ‘none of the before hims’ could detect or feel him’

After they moved on Alan reached in looking at all the adjustments he’d already made. Shaking his head there had to be something he could do that would prevent the Doctor from doing this again. Try as he might though, almost everything he wanted to do had dire consequences. Going forward Alan checked each time his former visits left. Trying to adjust almost anything gave him the same.

The day the bunker exploded he had to wait for his former self to leave. Reaching in he smiled as he saw that the Doctor had finally formulated the plan to have a son and take the body. He could also feel the Doctor’s abilities as they started to grow. He had to do this before the man could affect changes. What felt like an eternity later Alan smiled again at what he’d left. That should make a hell of a lot of differences when it came to finally killing the son of a bitch!

Snapping back like a strong elastic band was pulling on him Alan awoke with a huge smile on his face. His mother, Madde, Truda, Varick, Harman, and lastly Helga were in a discussion about him across the room. “You know,” Alan said as he tried to sit up. “It really is bad manners to talk about someone when they are in the same room!

All five of them turned and nodded then they all walked to where he was now finally sitting up.

“I know that look, I think.” Truda said a moment later as she looked hard at Alan’s face. “You were back there again weren’t you?”

Alan nodded then went into what he’d done. Then laughing a bit he told them about the last part that he’d had to wait to do. “I’d wondered why every time I tried to do something about the present situation all I saw was bad possible futures. I guess I know now huh Truda?”

“Well, duh!” Truda said matter of factly. “Hell Alan I could have told you that! For crying out loud I know I’m not as strong but I have been at it a whole lot longer!”

Alan nodded with a smile, “I’ll remember that in the future Truda.”

“You better! Then again are you really wanting to find out first hand if the old saying ‘hell have no fury like a woman scorned’ is in fact true?” Truda said her hands on her hips as she stomped to emphasize her point.

Alan again threw up his hands in surrender backing away from Truda.

“Like I said I’ll remember that.” Alan said.

Helga walked up to Alan, her eyes turned down as she asked in a whisper, “you didn’t see me did you Alan? I really don’t want you to see the shame I went through in order to survive. I was nothing to them. Only a receptacle for their lustful wants. I don’t want you to see me that way. Alan.”

“No Helga I didn’t, nor did I try to. What you did in the past shall stay there. I told you before I don’t want to reopen old wounds, old pain. Don’t forget I have my own pain, I’m not really wanting to relive it. Just as I don’t want you to go through yours again.” Alan said as he raised a hand to Helga’s face and gently caressed it.

“Thank you for that Alan. It means far more to me than you can even begin to know.” Leaning over Helga passionately kissed Alan seemingly sending a huge shock through them both. Breaking apart proved far harder than either of them thought it would be. Both fell to opposite ends of the couch panting for breath. Suddenly a saucy look crossed her face as Helga stated, “Ummm keep that up lover boy and I just might fall for you after all!”

Looking over Alan saw that Truda had huge tears in her eyes as she rushed up to hug him. Whispering in his ear, “Thank you Alan, you have done so much for her she feels almost normal again.” Then his mother hugged him also as she said almost the identical thing.

Finally untangled from the females Alan started to outline his plan to finally end the Doctor. The only problem was he wasn’t sure if they could withstand the bastard long enough. Looking at each he could see that they were all at an altogether different level than they had ever been, but would it be enough.

Finally an hour later Alan nodded as what he’d seen of Varick, Angelika, Truda, and Varick. They were indeed where even the Doctor would have a hard time controlling or over coming all of them.

Madde, Emory, and Aldrich walked up a moment later. “I do hope you realize that if you do this without us I will kick your ass!” Madde started.

“For all the terror and loss this bastard has caused for me and my family I owe him also!” Emory stated.

“If they go I go! I made a promise that I would help to protect mother. I intend to keep that promise or die trying!” Aldrich said a fierce look on his face.

Then to all their surprise, Alan nodded his head. “Good! I was hoping the three of you would want to help. Though you all aren’t as strong as we are you do have quite a bit of power. It just might be enough to push his defenses to the point of collapse.”

“You just tell us what you want us to do Alan. We’ll be there to help all of you finally end this hideous piece of filth!” Emory told him with Madde and Aldrich vigorously nodding their acquiesce.

“We need to go after him now. I hurt him when he came after me. I also planted a part of me in him like he had in the others. I just hope that it is able to keep him occupied long enough to defeat him.” Alan told the three before him.

“Like father said, whatever we can do to end this we will gladly help you to do.” Madde replied.

“I honestly hope that you do kill him, I’ve heard of many of the atrocities he did. NO ONE hurts our family and gets away with it!” Aldrich growled out his power slightly raising as his ire went higher.

“You’ll get your chance to help believe me. With all eight of us against him I can’t see him surviving for long. Still I would like to look in all of your minds again make sure there wasn’t something I missed.”

All three of them nodded with wide eyes. “I’ll go first.” Emory told them as he opened up to Alan. Alan went as fast as he could for an hour, finding nothing that the Doctor could use at all.

Looking at Madde she nodded as Alan delved in reaching all the way to the beginning of her mind. Like with Emory, Alan did as wide a scan coming out as he could. Almost another hour later he pulled out satisfied that Madde was also clear.

Moving over to Aldrich, Alan waited for the youth to nod he was ready. When Aldrich’s face twisted into a mask of pain Alan went in as fast as possible. “So my bastard son, we are once again at odds. Though as you can see this time I am holding this stupid, useless youth’s heart and lungs in my hands. This time there is nothing that you can do! Leave and I will kill him, stay and I will kill him. Either way this useless piece of meat is dead. How does it feel to be completely powerless my traitorous son?” The Doctor sneered at Alan.

Alan cursed he hadn’t foreseen the bastard taking one of his family. “You might be powerful, you might have more experience but remember. I started on you a lot longer than you did on them! As I have always said get used to disappointment!” Seeing the Doctor relax his grip but a moment Alan hit him with everything he had.

“Too late! The youth will be dead in moments I know you can save him. So I suggest you do so!” Alan felt a surge for a moment then smiled as he reached out to Aldrich’s vital autonomic systems. As he expected the Doctor started to power a bolt when he was suddenly screaming in pain. Several bolts of energy were blowing the visage of the Doctor to pieces faster than he could regroup it.

<We have to get him to leave! I’m not sure I can sustain Aldrich that much longer! The bastard waited ‘til I was at a lower amount of energy when he struck!> Alan’s thoughts reached out to the darkness where the energy bolts were coming from.

“NO! There is no way you can have this much power! I will ki ... NO! you again! Stay away you bastard! How are you in my mind and here! NOoooooo!” Came the Doctor’s screams as he was suddenly gone.

Breathing a sigh of relief Alan had already restored Aldrich’s heart rhythm. Now it seemed he was having trouble re-establishing Aldrich’s involuntary breathing. Alan could feel his energy starting to fade but he held on. Suddenly he felt Truda and Helga there trying to add to his energy. “Thank you both, Aldrich! Where are you?” Alan was trying to shout out. He had to make sure the youth was alright before he left.
