6. Final Hour

Complete story — includes the ending

Zorin uses the key to power the time machine, tethering the two timelines together and bringing three soldiers through before the key short-circuits. Brad, learning that the plan is an invasion rather than a life boat for their families, decides to help Kiera. Seeing his resolve, Kiera decides to destroy the machine rather than use it. Kellog offers Vasquez the chance to be his queen, and kills her when she refuses, learning too late that she is his own daughter. While the VPD force struggles against a soldier in a power suit, Alec is taken hostage and forced to fix the key. Kellog kills Dillan and enters the wormhole with the Piron time travel device, eliminating his future and the waiting army. Kiera enters it with Alec's time travel device, while the Traveler also returns to his own time. Alec, Carlos, Curtis, Brad, Jason and Garza swear to ensure a better future, hoping that Kiera has survived, and Alec reveals that Kellog's stolen coordinates sent him to the Pre-Columbian era. Kiera appears in front of a cheerful Kagame and is greeted by the same Alec she just left, sixty years older. Alec shows her that the Corporate Congress was never created, but she pays a price for it, seeing Sam only from a distance as the son of the new timeline's Kiera.
