Avalon, Season Two

Eight people trapped in the past are trying to get home. They move through time gates and across time zones that surround the many lifetimes of the Kairos; a person who never lives a quiet life. In each time zone, they face unique troubles in the struggle to survive, while keeping one eye open for what else has fallen through the cracks in time and may be following, or perhaps hunting them. From the beginning of history to the present, they have no one but each other to depend on-for as long as they are able to trust and depend on each other. Avalon, the series, is like a television show written in story form. Like a good TV show, one or two episodes is sufficient to meet the characters, understand what is happening and how this all works. I encourage you to sit back and enjoy. For the purists, the Prequel, the Pilot Episode, and Season One are all available in various formats. Happy Reading.From the Pilot Episode:It was Doctor Procter who explained. "I spent the last three hundred years studying the lives of the Kairos. Now that we have the opportunity to walk through those lifetimes, one by one, and in order I might add, I am not going to miss that opportunity. Isn't that right, Mingus?" Mingus shook his head and sighed, and in that moment everyone got a good look at the difference between Mingus, a full blood elf and the Doctor who was half-human. The contrast was not startling but obvious. No plain human could have eyes as big, features as sharp or fingers as thin and long. "If you say," Mingus muttered as he took the amulet and shook it once himself. "What says the Navy?" Lockhart turned to look at the two who were armed and bringing up the rear. "I'm to follow orders," Captain Decker frowned. Lieutenant Harper smiled. "I would not mind exploring a little while we have the chance." "Besides," Roland spoke up while Lockhart faced front again and encouraged everyone to resume walking. "I have a feeling the Kairos would not mind if we rooted out some of the unsavory characters that wandered into the time zones without permission." "Oh, that would be very dangerous." Alexis said it before Lincoln could, and she grinned for her husband. "All the same..." Roland did not finish his sentence. He fell back to walk beside Lockhart to underline his sentiments to the man. "Hey." Boston came up. She had been straggling near the back. "Boston, dear." Lockhart backed away from the elf and slipped his arm around the young woman. "So what do you think? Do we run as fast as we can or explore a bit and maybe confront some unsavories along the way?" "Explore and help the Kairos clean out the time zones. I thought that was obvious." "Well for the record," Mingus said as he turned and walked backwards. "Though it may kill me to say it, I agree with that Lincoln fellow." "I haven't offered an opinion," Lincoln said. "No, but I can read the mind of a frightened rabbit well enough." "Father!" Alexis jumped and there was some scolding in her voice. "I vote we explore and help." She looked at Lockhart, and so did everyone else except the Doctor who was still playing with his amulet. Lockhart nodded. "Okay," he said. "But the number one priority is to get everyone home alive and in one piece, so when it is time to move on, we all move, no arguments." "You got that right," Captain Decker mumbled. Everyone seemed fine with that except Mingus who screwed up his face and asked, "And who decides when it is time to move on?" "I do." Lockhart spoke without flinching. The two stared at each other until Doctor Procter interrupted. "Anyway," he spoke as if in the middle of a sentence. "I would not worry about hunting unsavories. I don't imagine it will take long before they start hunting us."
