History Main / KidFromTheFuture

* The Creator/SeananMcGuire song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VXp-q7iVG6I Time Travel Girl]] is about the singer (presumably a MadScientist)'s daughter stealing their time machine and traveling back to make sure her parents stay together.

* A plot twist over eight years in the making in ''ComicStrip/SafeHavens'': Maria, the time traveler and mother of Leonardo da Vinci, [[spoiler:is Dave and Samantha's daughter from the future, and her time-jumping abilities were a direct result of Samantha being pregnant with her while in space. For bonus points, Maria was the ship's doctor, and actually delivered ''herself''. Incidentally, this also makes Leonardo the Grandkid from the Future to Samantha and Dave.]]

* ''Manga/LittleJumper'': It features a high school student (Hiroki) who suddenly meets a girl (Chimari) who illegally time-traveled from the future to cure her ailing mother via genetic manipulation - and he is her (future) father. Two complications: 1) she hates her father (him), and 2) neither of them have any idea who her mother could [[TimeTravelTenseTrouble (will?)]] be. A surprisingly widely agreed-on theory is that [[spoiler:she could very well be her own future mother]], which would effectively [[spoiler:create both a StableTimeLoop ''and'' a decent amount of fan-discomfort.]] How it all concludes: [[spoiler:Chimari isn't actually Hiroki's kid, she's the result of Ai-chan being a TrulySingleParent, via some [[MagicFromTechnology Techno]]-MysticalPregnancy involving time travel. The cause is likely the Time Jumper, but it could some other time travel method.]]

** [[ComicBook/{{Impulse}} Bart Allen (Impulse/Kid Flash II)]] was the Wally West's (The Flash III) cousin from the 30th Century--and the grandson of Barry Allen (The Flash II) who had spent a long time in the 30th Century before his death. Bart is also technically also the great-great-great (you know how this goes) grandson of the Eobard Thawne (The Reverse-Flash I) on his mother's side.

* In ''Webcomic/QIce'' (readable [[http://www.q-ice.com/ here]]), Vivio went back in time to [[http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/4199/nano104trwg1.jpg screw]] [[https://web.archive.org/web/20130730152224/http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/9425/nano105tryy0.jpg around]] with [[HasTwoMommies her mothers]].

* For a non-X-Men example in the Franchise/MarvelUniverse, this has also happened in ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'' with Valeria [[spoiler:Von Doom]], daughter of [[spoiler:Sue Richards and Doctor Doom ([[{{Retcon}} or Reed Richards impersonating Doom]], though she certainly ''thought'' Doom was her father)]]. Like Rachel Summers, she's a creation of Creator/ChrisClaremont, and they've even both used the CodeName "Marvel Girl" (though in all fairness, Rachel had yet to use that name at the time of Valeria's creation). Clearly, Claremont ''loves'' this trope[[note]]Though, as noted above, he also functionally ''invented'' it[[/note]].

** In the same episode, we meet a group of future Planeteers from another timeline who are apparently descendants of the current Planeteers. Wheeler goes as far as suggesting the future Fire and Wind Planetees could be his and Linka's descendants together, before she laughingly shoots him down.

* In the fourth chapter of ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/25553830/chapters/62007700 Thunderrod week 2020]]'', Rodimus and Thunderclash meet a strange young femme who turns out to be their daughter from a timeline where Thunderclash died shortly after her birth.

* The Kingdom Titans who show up in ''ComicBook/{{Titans}}'' are the possible future kids of the current titans, some of whom do become part of regular continuity after their births later on:

* ''Anime/{{Doraemon}}'':

* In ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'', Marle warps back a few centuries [[spoiler:and is [[IdenticalGrandfather mistaken for her great-great-etc.-grandmother]].]]
** [[spoiler:She's also implied to be Ayla's Descendant From The Future.]]

* [[spoiler:Chao Lingshen]] in ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'', although she's a little further down the family tree. She fulfills the harem-anime version of this trope by pulling out a book detailing her ancestry to deliberately (and successfully) spark total mayhem among Negi's UnwantedHarem. Side Joke: [[HilariousInHindsight Two chapters before we find out their relationship, one of the scanlators released a joke image]] with her doing a LukeIAmYourFather.

* Series/{{Arrowverse}}:
** Thanks to its time travel premise, ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'' frequently features this:
*** In Season 1, Snart and Jax meet their fathers before events that would upend their lives (the former's imprisonment and the latter's death).
*** In Season 2, Nate befriends Hank Heywood Sr, his grandfather and, as Commander Steel, member of the ComicBook/JusticeSocietyOfAmerica.
*** Season 3 has two arc-important examples. The first is Nora Darhk, Damien's daughter who time traveled from 2039 to resurrect her father and summon Mallus. The second is Kuasa, sister of [[ComicBook/{{Vixen}} Mari [=McCabe=]]] and granddaughter of Amaya Jiwe, who is recruited as part of the Cult of Mallus, opposing the Legends and Amaya by extension. Kuasa is an inversion, as she is a modern-day person while Amaya came from TheThirties (well, from Amaya's perspective, she's still from the future, but so is everyone else).
** ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}'':
*** Eobard Thawne is Eddie's distant descendant. A downplayed example since Eobard's existence in the present has nothing to do with Eddie; he even states that he has a low opinion on Eddie, calling him a failure in a family full of distinguished people. However, the fact that the two are related is still instrumental in his downfall, as Eddie sacrifices himself to save Barry from Eobard by committing suicide, therefore erasing all of his descendants, including Eobard, from existence (Eobard would later resurface, but as a [[ParadoxPerson Time Remnant]]).
*** Barry has gone back in time to the night Eobard Thawne killed his mother no less than three times. The first time, he chooses to keep the timeline intact. The second, he saves her before Thawne could deal the fatal blow, causing [[CosmicRetcon Flashpoint]]. The third time, he has to let her die again to undo Flashpoint.
*** A girl keeps showing up to Team Flash throughout Season 4. She is eventually revealed to be Nora West-Allen, Barry's and Iris's daughter from the future and her intent is to prevent her father from disappearing in 2024. Unfortunately, she ends up making things worse when she allies herself with [[BigBad Eobard Thawne]]; the year Barry disappears in is moved ahead to 2019 and Nora herself is {{Ret Gone}}d for messing up with the timeline.
** In ''Series/{{Arrow}}'', William, Mia, and Connor are transported by the Monitor from 2040 to 2019, meeting Oliver, Diggle, Rene, Dinah, Curtis, and Laurel. It's a little more awkward for Connor, since Diggle hasn't adopted him yet. But they also tell them that Diggle's biological son, J.J., ends up becoming a villain in the BadFuture and kills Rene's daughter Zoe. William seems to adapt quicker than the others and pretty much takes over his stepmom's role on Team Arrow.

** ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'' Season 3 has two instances of this. The first is Nora Darhk, Damien's daughter who time traveled from 2039 to resurrect her father and summon Mallus. The second is Kuasa, sister of [[ComicBook/{{Vixen}} Mari [=McCabe=]]] and granddaughter of Amaya Jiwe, who is recruited as part of the Cult of Mallus, opposing the Legends and Amaya by extension. Kuasa is an inversion, as she is a modern-day person while Amaya came from TheThirties (well, from Amaya's perspective, she's still from the future, but so is everyone else).
** In ''Series/{{The Flash|2014}}'', a girl keeps showing up throughout Season 4. She is eventually revealed to be Nora West-Allen, Barry's and Iris's daughter from the future and her intent is to prevent her father from disappearing in 2024. Unfortunately, she ends up making things worse when she allies herself with [[BigBad Eobard Thawne]]; the year Barry disappears in is moved ahead to 2019 and Nora herself is {{Ret Gone}}d for messing up with the timeline.

* ''[[Webcomic/WalkyVerse It's Walky!]]'' has Bobby "Machete" [[https://web.archive.org/web/20110805040700/http://www.walkypedia.com/index.php/Bobby_Walkerton Walkerton]].

%%* ''Webcomic/GeneralProtectionFault'': Todd

** ComicBook/RachelSummers (Phoenix/Marvel Girl) is this trope played absolutely straight and is probably the TropeCodifier (predating [[Franchise/SailorMoon Chibi-Usa]] and [[Manga/DragonBall Future Trunks]], the most famous examples of the trope, by about a decade): she's the daughter of Scott Summers and Jean Grey in the "Days of Future Past" timeline's future, who goes back in time and joins various X-Teams.

* Tony Stark meets his future grandson in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/IronmanArmoredAdventures''. Unfortunately, he's there to [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong stop a super computer virus]] from wiping out humanity by killing Tony before he can invent it. This, despite the fact that he knows that by killing Tony, [[GrandfatherParadox he'll never have been born.]]

* Lara-Su, the daughter of Knuckles and Julie-Su from two different possible futures in ''ComicBook/ArchieComicsSonicTheHedgehog'':

* ''Fanfic/ProtectingThePast'': A mysterious organization travels back in time to acquire certain individuals and change history. They're followed by a group of allies who team up with the student of UA to stop them. Who are they? the future children of Izuku Midoriya, who've traveled back to protect their father and his wives. [[{{Polyamory}} All eleven of them.]]
