Lost in Time
July 1, 2010 - Oh no, cadets! Something terrible has happened and now we�re all stuck in the past! Ok, calm down, Omni, everything will be fine. We�re not entirely lost � I mean, I�m still blogging somehow via Carlo�s smart phone (though I doubt we�re getting 3G coverage anymore). Whooo, let me explain from the beginning. Last night we were all having a quiet dinner when a weird, maniacal laugh exploded through the cafeteria. I looked around to see where the sound was coming from, but saw nothing unusual. Jax thought it was a poltergeist and went running for the door. I wish the rest of us had followed!
The laughter was soon replaced by an eerie voice that said, �Well hello, Cyber Defenders! Sorry for the fright�well, not all that sorry. I�m the Bad Hatter � reality hacker extraordinaire! I was thinking about all the �good� you do and, well, I thought you could use a challenge. It�s too easy to be Cyber Defenders with all this modern technology around you, isn�t it?
�So, out of the badness of my heart, I�ve arranged an all-expense paid trip back in time to the year 1995! Let�s see you fight crime without the use of all your high-tech gadgetry!�
Suddenly, a huge, swirling purple vortex appeared on the floor that sucked us back through time to the first year of the Academy! Back when the entire faculty, aside from Captain Wits, was a bunch of cadets. Back when Ex-Commander Nils was still a good guy! We landed in a pile in the middle of the busy cafeteria. There was a stunned silence as we all stared at ourselves from 15 years ago. I heard the 1995-me say, �Um�did a clone of me just, like, fall out of the ceiling? Radical!�
�Yeah,� 1995-Betty replied. �And look, the rest of us are there, too. But why are we all old and stuff?�
Ignoring that, I stood up, dusted myself off, and introduced everyone. I explained to Captain Wits and Captain Marbles exactly what had happened and, though they were confused, they agreed to help us. It�s going to be hard, but together we�re going to figure out how to defeat the Bad Hatter!
