"Good, good. You did well to answer the call."

Jack nods to Miranda, then he looks at Eric again.

"What did the robot do? Did it say anything?"

There's an undercurrent of urgency in Jack's voice!

"Uhhh."

He tried to think back. A lot of it was a blur.

"I tried to crush it and it said a name before lifting up the slab and throwing it at us. Then it said my name before... I ripped it apart."

He shuddered. He couldn't help but imagine that against a person. The thought made him sick.

"Maybe it was here to kill us?"

Him and John Allcott.

Jack's eyes widen in surprise, and he stays silent for a few seconds, contemplating what to say.

"...it seems you're very lucky to be alive. Very lucky. You did well."

She's watching Jack with wary curiosity, nodding once.

"Director?"

"Matt will pull through."

Jack says as reassuringly as he can.

"He's tough. He's a survivor."

"The robot you faced was one from a different future. There was an AI named Legion that created an army, an army focused on destroying humanity. They were able to copy metahuman powers in their hunt."

"That... that doesn't make any sense!"

A different future? What? How? And how would it be in his portal? And why did it know his name?

"Because when I was younger, I was sent through time to deal with the robots, while my future self replaced me here."

Jack frowns.

"It was... horrific. The final battle took place in a plane between timelines called the Nexus. I believe that's where that robot came from."

"With a purple sky...?"

He tried to swallow around the lump in his throat.

"They didn't notice the difference?" She frowns, not understanding how a replacement from teh future could go undetected. Or was that why there was a fight?

"How did you get back then?"

"With a purple sky."

Jack nods.

"They noticed the difference. My future self helped here, had come back in an effort to stop Legion before it had ever grown so powerful. The only way I managed to come back was because we had defeated Legion in the Nexus, stopping its attempt to destroy time itself."

"Then why are there still robots there?"

And why did it come through? AND HOW DID IT KNOW HIS NAME!?

Miranda silently mouths, "destroy time itself" to herself with a look of consternation and 'people are dumb.'

"That... I'm not sure of."

Jack shrugs.

"They all disappeared when Legion was defeated. I assumed they were phased from existence. Apparently not."

"So the portal opened it to a different future?" That part, she'd gotten.

"A future that shouldn't exist."

Jack nods.

"Which is... strange."
