The slow smirk that spread over John's face was at once brilliantly cold and hotly fierce. "If I get my way, that's exactly what's going to happen. Burn it to the ground and salt the earth."
There was still a chance his future self would do his stint here in John's own timeline. Who knew if he'd erased that part of his history jumping into 2027 or merely postponed it. He couldn't count the possibility out, yet. He wouldn't have superheroes and wizards there to help him. He'd have to do it all on his own, hopefully with Kyle at his side. They wouldn't be able to level Century on their own, then. So, if he could do it for the people of this timeline, he would make sure it was done.
"That's what we're doing here, we're going to help this timeline for as long as the bus let's us stay." Chuckling, he shook his head. "Not sure the bus will let you come back to my timeline when it sends me back. But, I appreciate the sentiment."
