SUMMARY- It is the year 2900 and Jane and her half sister Jade are just like any other set of teens. They gossip, text non stop, and the one that really gets them in trouble is when the skip school. At first all they have to worry about is their parents finding out, but when Jade somehow gets sent back in time, that is the least of their worries. Unknowingly, Jane accidently follows her and find herself in the most interesting and strangest place. The past. With no certain way to get back to the future Jane has to adapt to living in the twenty first century, but for some reason she keeps finding herself in life threatening situations. Luckily she has Gabriel- the majorly hot bad boy who everybody is inlove with to save the day. Soon she falls for him and has to choose between going back to the future with her sister or staying in the past with him and probably never seeing her home again. Either way she has to find her sister first...that is if she want to be found.

Please review!

Chapter 1

This is all Jade's fault! I fumed internally. If she hadn't insisted that we ditch school we wouldn't be out here in the pouring rain, soaking wet, and dodging lightning bolts left and right. I snorted; that's Jade for ya, always has a plan!

"Well you're the one who didn't want to go to school, geez, I was only tryin' to help you. My bad." She snapped.

With our bags over our heads we ran across the street. When we got to the other side I furrowed my eyebrows. "What are you talking about- I didn't say anything."

"Oh, okay, so I just imagined you blaming me for getting us trapped in this storm," she said sarcastically.

I did my best to gawk at her while blinking rain water out of my eyes. "What you can read minds now?" I complained. "God, do you have to be good at everything?" I threw my drenched brown hair over my shoulders.

Jade looked at me unbelievingly. "You know what, no comment, except that you're an idiot."

The sky was gray as the clouds kept dumping seemingly endless amounts of water on us. Nobody was in the streets except for us. What dumbasses we must look like… nobody else in their right mind would be out here without a Portal Key and this just so happens to be the day when I forget mine.

We heard the loud boom of thunder and we knew we had to get out of the way quick. Jade ran up to this creepy old mansion type building and gestured for me to follow her. "Hurry in here," she said hastily.

I bit my lip. "I don't know," I said reluctantly. "Maybe we shouldn't," I urged.

"Oh, fine, but when you end up a crispy critter I don't want hear your mouth, assuming you still have one that is." She sighed tiredly and then turned to jog inside.

I stubbornly stood there with my arms folded across my chest. There was no way in Candyland that I was going into that place. It looked haunted or something. I mean, I may end up as toast but she'll have to spend the remainder of the storm locked up with the ghosties which in my opinion is way worse… yep…

However, when I saw the flash of lightning I bolted right through the front door. Once inside I leaned forward resting my hands on my knees and tried to catch up with my breath. "Jade?" I called.

When she didn't answer I rolled my eyes. "Jade if you're trying to scare me it's not gonna work. I am immune to all of your tricks." Years of practice.

Still no answer. I put my hand on my hips and searched the whole room, squinted my eyes in the entire lack of light. Just when I started to really panic… "Boo!"

"Ah!"

"Ha ha! So much for immunity."

"Ugh, Jade!" I began.

"I'm sorry, sis, but it was just so easy I couldn't help myself. Besides it's partly your fault for being such a scaredy-cat," she insisted.

"Tsk, whatever, just help me find a light switch. All this non-light is making me nervous." I muttered.

"My point egg-zactly," she replied. I stuck my tongue out at her, but she didn't see it.

I glided my hand along the invisible wall until I found the switch. "Found it!" I said enthusiastically.

"Okay, why are you telling me? Turn it on."

"I was just about to do that if you would be so kind as to give me a moment." I said pleasantly and then flipped the switch.

The light flickered once and then stayed bright. Jade and I synchronized a grimace. The walls were cracked with wallpaper peeling off like a banana. I think the carpet was white, you couldn't really tell under all the dirt and yuckiness. The chairs were knocked over and the desk in the center was covered with random paper and dust…oh and spiders.

"Ya know what, on second thought I think I liked this place better with the lights off," she whispered. "How 'bout you Jane?"

"Ditto," I agreed. "This place looks like a tornado went through here and then backed up to start all over again." I wandered up toward the front desk and then suddenly to my right was a door. "Wonder what's in there,' I said as I went for the handle. Once I opened I knew almost instantly what this was. "It's a hospital."

"A mental hospital," she intercepted holding up what looked like a weird white shirt pinched in two fingers.

"I that one of those-?"

"I think so," Jade answered. "Now we know this place is old," she snorted. "I never even knew that these things still existed. I mean, they stopped using these things atleast700 years ago. It's practically ancient."

"Yeah, nowadays they just use drugs and plastic bubbles," I chuckled. "Welcome to the 29th century!"

"Maybe we should drop it off at the museum tomorrow."

"Yeah," I furrowed my eyebrows. "But what I don't get is if that has been here for centuries then how come nobody has discovered it until now," I said skeptically.

"I'm just wondering why they haven't dissolved this place and replaced it with a super mall by now. This place is absolutely huge!" she commented and her voice echoed off the walls.

I shrugged. "I guessed nobody really cared." I said sadly.

She wrapped her fingers around her bag straps and came to my side. "What's with you and old stuff?" she smacked on her gum.

I just didn't like to see a good historical artifact go to waste. "Let's go," I said as I turned to leave.

Jade took hold of my shirt collar. "Whoa, go where? Back into that storm so we can get electrocuted like a fork in a wall outlet?"

"There ain't no way I'm gonna stay here," I declared as I tried to tug away.

Jade yanked me back. "Well, there's no way you're going out there. What kind of big sister would I be if I let you get struck by lightning?" she questioned teasingly.

I pursed my lips deliberating. "Well, if I did happen to get struck by lightning and somehow survived and developed superpowers- the best ever!"

"Too risky."

"Fine," I sighed giving in.

She let go of my collar and I roamed around and sat in the dust covered computer chair. I playfully started to press on the keys, not typing anything legible of course. I was really fun too, different, considering that everything now was holographic and voice automated.

I paused thinking about was Jade had said earlier. Why hadn't they dissolved this place yet? Why hadn't this place dissolved on it own? I mean, it's centuries old and it's still standing tall. Maybe people really didn't care.

Nobody cares anymore.

"Eww!" Jade shrieked jumping up.

"What?"

"It's a rat," she said disgust present in her tone.

I rolled my eyes. "Just leave it alone and it won't bother you."

"You don't have to tell me twice," she muttered cringing away. Then she glanced up and screamed.

"What now?" I asked and then I looked up and screamed also.

Bats, tons of bats, hanging there like little vampires. Then the next thing I knew some were awake, and then some more, and more.

Jade and I had the exact same thought. We ran for the door in the back that led to a long hallway of rooms. Once inside we slammed the door behind us (probably waking up even more bats) and I locked the door.

"Jane where are you?" Jade called in my ear. It was pitch dark again; I tried to find a light switch but had no such luck.

"Well, that's just great," I said defeated dropping my butt on the spider infested floor.

Jade sat down next to me. "You know maybe we should call somebody to come and get us," she suggested.

"How? It's not like there's any reception in this place, and even if anybody knew where we were it not like they could do anything about it. The portal circuits are probably all screwed up by now."

"Yeah," she agreed. "Besides, then Mom would know that we skipped school."

"Dad too."

Jade ignored me. "So we might as well sit tight and hang tough," she said with bravery.

"No, you can hang tough," I contradicted standing up and dusting my butt off. "I'm gonna go look around some more."

She sighed. "I really think we should stay together."

I reached down and took hold of her arms, pulling her up. "Then don't split us up by staying here."

"Jane," she exasperatedly.

"Oh, come Jay-Jay you know that once we tell the museum about this place their gonna get their goodies and leave," she opened her mouth to speak. "Then they're gonna call the construction guys and they're gonna tear it down."

"Yeah, but-."

"Please, this might be about our only chance to really learn about life in the past. It'll be fun!" I promised

She rolled her eyes. "Omigosh!" she groaned in complaint. "I'm such a push-over!"

"Just one of the many things I love about you; you're easy to convince," I started to walk forward. "You comin?"

"Yeah, I'm just trying to dig my flashlight out of my bag."

"Wait a minute, you had a flashlight this whole time and you didn't get it out before?" I asked. "Do you know how many spider bites I probably could've saved myself from?"

"Oh, you got all your shots; you should be just fine," she said dismissively. "Ah ha, found it," she announced holding up the little silver stick light. "On," she spoke the word and it lit up. "Okay it won't last for long so we need to find a switch and fast.

"Aye ye captain," I saluted.

We wandered down the long hallway of doors, peeking into rooms and dodging cobwebs. Finally we walked passed what looked like a fuse box.

"Finally," Jade said dropping her bag and handing me the penlight. I pointed toward the little silver box in the wall. Jade opened it and found a ton of little switches. There was one that said hall and one that said main hall. "Which one?"

I shrugged. Then the flashlight went out at the same time the thunder sounded outside.

We both groaned. "Do you remember where it was?" Jade asked.

"Yeah, but…"

"But what?"

I bit my lip. "Do you really think we should be messing around with a bunch of switches during a lightning storm?"

"What happened to getting superpowers?" she teased.

"Jade."

"Fine, if you're afraid I'll do it," she decided. I pointed to where I remember the hallway switch being.

As soon as she flipped it up, lightning flashed in the window nearly blinding me.

"Shoot, it must have been the wrong one," I rubbed my eyes. "Jade, maybe it was the other one."

Jade didn't answer.

"Jade," I sighed. "This better not be some kind of prank because it's beginning to get really annoying." I waited while thunder boomed again. "Fine," I snapped "I guess I'll do it."

I flipped up the main hallway switch and the very last thing I remember is seeing a bright flash and a swirl of colors.

Then I woke up and some guy was standing over me. His hair dark and messy, and his eyes, his gorgeous liquid brown eyes were full of concern. "Are you alright?" he asked.

For a short second I was just dazzled by the insanely hot guy leaning over me, but then I sat up and saw the horrid scene around me and answered. "Hell, no…"

Okay, there it is! Review please and tell me if you like it!
