Becoming Them
(1) Jumping Forward In Time

Kurt Hummel sighed as he looked around the Choir Room. Finn Hudson was sitting as far away from the "losers" as he possibly could. Rachel Berry was sitting at the piano, working her voice. Mercedes Jones and Tina Cohen-Chang were giggling over something on one of their phones. Artie had his headphones on and was moving his arms around in a dance. Kurt pulled his phone out and unlocked it. He started to type on his phone, ignoring everyone else in the room as they were ignoring him.

Mr Shue opened the door and walked in.

"Alright guys, I have a great ide..." Will's voice went quiet as he took in the empty room. Everyone's bags were there and two phones fell to the chairs.

Everything fell from Will's hands as he ran forward.

"Guys!" he called.

Black. That was all Kurt could see. Dark. There was no sound and there was no movement. Kurt himself could not even move. His limbs felt like dead weight. Suddenly Kurt felt breath enter his lungs and he gasped. He could move his limbs again. Kurt's eyelids flickered and he opened them, only to shut them again as the light went through his eyes and caused him a great deal of pain.

"..rt" a voice said, "Kurt, come on, you need to wake up. Kurt, you're really starting to scare us." Kurt groaned and he slowly opened his eyes again. Rachel was right in his face. Her hair was a mess and she had oxygen tubes coming from her nose and up around her ears.

"Oh, thank God, guys, he's finally awake" Rachel called to people over at the other side of the room. Kurt slowly sat up and saw that everyone else was standing at various parts of the room and Artie was sitting up in the hospital bed. They all wore hospital gowns and were being supplied oxygen. Kurt himself had a oxygen mask. He moved it away from his mouth and nose. Rachel grabbed his hand and made it let go of the mask, and she placed it back onto his face.

"You have to keep that on" she said.

"Wha' happen'?" Kurt muttered, his voice cracking.

"We don't know" said Artie, "we just woke up here. A Doctor comes in every hour. We've been here around two days. Rachel had the guts to ask what was wrong with you and they only said that you were hit worst with the impact but they wouldn't tell us anything else."

Kurt groaned.

"We are all freaking, like a lot, freaking out. They had locked all the curtains to the walls so that we can't open them, the door is locked" Finn started to pace and Kurt felt light headed. He closed his eyes again until he felt like he had regained control of his bearings.

He opened his eyes again and he slowly pulled himself into sitting position. Rachel made herself comfortable on his bed where he feet were laying.

The sound of a key in a lock echoed throughout the room and the door to the hospital room opened and two people walked in.

One was obviously a Doctor, you could tell by the white labcoat and the folder he held in his hands. He had blonde, sandy hair and blue eyes, was average weight for his tallish height. He smiled at each of them and quickly walked over to Kurt to check him over.

The second man wore a black suit with white shirt and no tie. He had black glasses on and a ear piece in. His hair was short and neat.

"I'm sure you have questions" said the second man, "and I am here to answer them."

He grabbed a chair and pulled it to sit between Artie and Kurt's beds. Finn, Mercedes and Tina sat among the two beds.

"What happened to us?" Rachel asked.

"Okay, to each of you. There was a blast, explosion like effect. And you were all injured in different ways. Rachel Berry, Mercedes Jones and Tina Cohen-Chang landed on their stomach so all that happened to them were bruises on their stomach and chests. Arthur Abrams lost his chair but landed on Finn Hudson which gave him internal injuries, and protected Mr Abrams. Kurt Hummel however, landed on his head which gave him brain bruising, but it seems to have calmed down in the past two weeks."

"Where are we, and who are you?" asked Artie.

"My name is Agent D, and you are in New York" said the man. Kurt glanced at the Doctor working on him, who was pressing his thumbs onto parts of his head.

"How did we end up in New York? We were just sitting in a school in Ohio" said Kurt.

"You somehow ended up travelling through time. We are trying to figure out to get you all home but until then, we have contacted the future version of Kurt Hummel and he has agreed to let you all stay at his house. His brother will be picked you up tomorrow" said Agent, "and I will be in contact with all of you."

"I don't have a brother" said Kurt, his face pale from the information that they had ended up out of their time.

"Kurt lives in New York?" Rachel asked, throwing Kurt a jealous look.

"Yes, and the record says that the person collected you will be his Step-Brother" said Agent D, "I will return tomorrow." He and the Doctor left.

"We are in the future?" said Artie.

"We'll be staying with Kurt?" said Mercedes.

"Kurt lives in New York?" asked Rachel.

Kurt was just sitting on the bed, the mask back over his face, eyes wide.

"It's not possible, is it?" said Finn, "time travel can't just happen, can it?"

"I..I..I...don...t...know" stuttered Tina.

The New Directions just stared at each other.
