CHAPTER FORTY-NINE

Present Day, Fantastical Armory, Roya Lane, London, United Kingdom

When Paris, with Faraday in tow, flipped the time travel coin and spoke the word, “Now,” she felt like she’d entered a whole new world. Then she remembered she had.

The coin dropped them in the Fantastical Armory. Papa Creola and Mama Jamba were waiting with a tray of refreshments, which was the most welcome thing Paris had seen in a long time. The only things better would have been her mother’s arms or Hemingway’s smile. However, the tea and cookies were much appreciated.

“You did it, my dear.” Mama Jamba had clapped when Paris and Faraday appeared in the Fantastical Armory. The sounds of Subner’s protests could still be heard echoing from the door to the basement. “You saved Romeo and Juliet, and the story now lives on the way it always did before. Their tragedy of sacrifice and passion is an inspiration to so many.”

“So, William Shakespeare wrote the ending the way I gave it to him, then?” Paris asked, not knowing how things actually ended in 1591.

Papa Creola nodded from his place in his pink armchair. “Oh, yes. And thanks to you, the ripple based on the change is starting to fix.”

Paris pulled out her phone and checked the love meter. It was still dangerously low.

“It takes time for love to recover,” Mama Jamba consoled. “It always has. Some will wake immediately, but some won’t. King Alexander and Queen Seraphina’s story might resonate with them, and that one is more important anyway because it’s one of devotion and commitment.”

“That’s my next quest.” Paris put Faraday on a counter and strode over to grab a cookie.

“First, you should sleep,” Mama Jamba offered. “You’ll need the rest before setting off to see Tiffer.”

“And this time travel. Will it be as complicated?” Faraday asked, hopping over and grabbing a cookie in his paws.

Mama Jamba winked at him. “More.”

“That seems about right.” Paris swallowed her cookie whole. She was starving.

“Good thinking on bombing the Adige River,” Mama Jamba told her. “I had meant to fix that but got busy with something in Africa. Before I knew it, the Montagues and the Capulets were tearing each other in two. You managed to make things better, though.”

Papa Creola took a sip of tea and shook his head, looking at something but not seeming to really see it. “That rarely ever happens. Usually people just make it worse, mudding everything up with their bad ideas.”

“I figured if I could fix the family drama, Romeo and Juliet could be together,” Paris remarked.

“You handled it brilliantly!” Mama Jamba exclaimed.

“Well, besides the fact that you might see weird things from now on,” Papa Creola said, slumping in his seat.

Paris tensed. “Weird things?”

Mama Jamba waved her hand through the air. “Oh, well, William might have had a thing for this woman he met. He commissioned hundreds of paintings of her. He searched the globe for her.”

“Paintings?” Paris asked.

“There will be paintings of you dressed as you are now all over the world,” Papa Creola said dryly, taking a sip of tea.
