Chapter 15: Language of science…such an enigma (Alice continues with her story and Bette keeps making new discoveries)
Place: Porter mansion – the garden
Year: 2005 (October 20)
(Previously) Alice stared directly at Tina for pure dramatic effect and said, deliberately emphasizing each word, “No, it’s like…TIME…TRAVEL.”
Tina burst out laughing, “You watched ‘Back to the Future’ way too many times. Did the mad professor put some dorky helmet on you with wires all over it? Did the electric waves shock you and that’s why you are speaking nonsense? Where’s your plutonium-powered DeLorean time machine?”
Tina couldn’t stop laughing, while Alice went silent and just looked at Tina, shaking her head. Finally she asked, “Are you done?”
Tina nodded her head as she wiped some tears.
“Then how do you explain Bette being here then?” Alice asked with some noticeable hurt in her voice.
“Bette? This is her name?” Tina repeated, still giggling uncontrollably.
“I’ll enlighten you about it later,” Alice replied with a shrug, “So how do you explain her presence here?”
“Easy,” Tina said sarcastically, rolling her eyes, “You probably hired an actress, put some make-up, a wig and a dress to make her look like the woman from my miniature painting because you knew how totally infatuated I am with her and voila. I got the shock of my life and she’s probably lying in that bed right now and laughing her ass off at my expense.”
“Tina,” Alice asked with indignation, “You know me for almost two years now. Would I do something as hurtful and insensitive to you?”
“Yes,” was Tina’s immediate reply.
“Okay, okay, I would,” Alice conceded and finished her beer.
~~~~~~~~
“Okay, okay, I would,” Alice conceded and finished her beer, “but not this time…this is truly her.”
“Seriously, Alice?”
Alice looked pleadingly at Tina, “I’m very serious. Please, let me finish my story and then you can decide, okay?”
Tina watched Alice for a moment and nodded silently, deciding to keep an open mind, even if it was an elaborate practical joke. Besides, her curiosity won the struggle with her anger because that woman in the bedroom looked so damn identical to Elizabeth Porter that it made Tina’s head hurt. She needed to know what was going on.

It’s a really sweet story. I had to smile when I read how Bette reacted to all the things around her. I sometimes think about what my grand-grandmother would think if I could wake her. The time changes so quick that even my grandmother would have some problems.
That was really cute! I guess when Bette looks out the window she thinks she’s dreaming because she sees Tina (whom she knows to be dead) and Alicia….and they’re both dressed funny! Hahahaha…I love this story B&TF. Looking forward to your next update.
This story gets better with each chapter. I am still waiting for the actually face to face meeting of Elizabeth and Christina.
Come on, I can’t wait for Tina and Bette finally meet! Great chappy, please post soon. :)
LOL… Great chapter!!! Wow, someone has been doing their science homework, haven’t they?… Great job! A number of movies came to my mind while I was reading this… “Back to the future” (Of coooourse!), a little bit of “Stargate” as well, and a charming pinch of “Enchanted” (not that Bette would make a dress from the curtains herself though, she’d have Alicia do it…). Oh and a tiny bit of E.T. with the telephone thing. Oh, I love it, it’s priceless. It’s very interesting though, cause as funny as it is, think about how odd it must be to find out about such items when you come from the early 19th century… Anyway, I also love Alice just being Alice, LOL! Okay, enough of my rambling. Thanks for the update! K ;)
AHH HA!!! Now I know how Alice ends up in a prison spin-off!!!… Dr. Kroll presses charges!!! LOL! I love this! Your imagination for this story is fantastic!
“Top Ten Prison Facilities in L.A. County”–too much. I love the imaginative details and your balancing of all of the story threads. I’m so happy you brought this back.
Oh my gosh!!! I said the exact same thing twice!!! It’s like a JB interview!!!!!! :-)
