Gumball Watterson was sitting on the step of his house, waiting for his package. He was watching cars go by, wondering when he's get his new shift he ordered off of Elmore E-store, when a portal suddenly opened, and something emerged from it. Gumball got up and backed away as the new, glowing figure collapsed onto the ground. It breathed heavily, as it was on its hands and knees.

"H-hello?" Gumball called.

The figure'd glow faded, and it looked like Gumball, but with black hair and a white tank and blue jeans. It's shocked, green eyes looked around.

"This isn't The Safe Haven!" the other Gumball said.

""Safe Haven"?" Gumball asked.

The other Gumball looked at Gumball. "I'm not suppose to be here!" he panicked.

"W-why?" Gumball asked.

"This isn't my timeline- I'm from the future!" the other Gumball said.

"Um... what's your name?" Gumball asked.

The other Gumball got up. "Flintlock Sentinel. Listen, Gumball, I need a place to hide, so I need you to hide me!" he said.

"Woah! Will I get in trouble?" Gumball asked.

"Um... ever so slightly..?" Flintlock shrugged.

"I-um... okay..." Gumball began to head to the back.

"Are you taking me to your shed?" Flintlock asked.

"Y-yea..." Gumball said, feeling uncomfortable around Flintlock.

"Great! Let's hurry!" Flintlock said, a bit anxious.
