Chapter Five
âButâ¦.the fire, the story?â
âIt was all a lie, Ryan, my great grandfatherâs life was in danger. A lot of people wanted to get their hands on the time machine. Threats, murder attempts, etc. He had to lie, and we all had to live that lie to keep the Demarcoâs empire safe.â
âYou told me it was destroyed too. I askedâ¦â
âRyan, you are my best friend, and we are like brothers. No, we are brothers. I shouldnât have kept it from you, but we all swore not to tell anyone.â
âI know you may be upsetâ¦and I understand,â he continued.
âUpset???....the time machine is still in existenceâ¦.how can I be upset??⦠I am elatedâ¦.the time machine is still somewhere,â he said, raising his voice.
âShhhhâ¦â¦â
âSorryâ¦.I am just so excitedâ¦. And I understand family comes first.â
âYou are family too, Ryan, I should have told you. I know you would have told me.â
âTrue, I probably would have â¦.but then this relative too. If it were something more personal, maybe I wouldnât have been happy, but this?...it was beyond you. Promise me something, though. Can I see it.?. Even if itâs just once?â
âIâm not sure of that, Ryan, Iâm not even meant to be telling you. Though you are family, I donât think my parents will mind. The issue now is that the solution lies in the time machine.â
âHow?â
âMy great grandfather foretold the pandemic, and the only way to reverse it or stop it is to go back in time to find out the cause.â
âIf the cause is known, we will know how to devise a cure or prevent it completely. We would all be fine. The pandemic would never exist.â
âYesâ¦oh my God, I canât believe this. So, when will this happen? Who is going back in time?â
His smile dropped when he saw Brandonâs countenance.
âWhatâs wrong?â
âItâs not that simple, Ryan, there are risks.â
âLike?â
âThe person could get trapped in the other life forever. They could die or suffer damage to their heart. The time machine hasnât been used in ages, it has a manual, but no one can ascertain anything right now. It hasnât been powered for about 200 years.â
âWhy not power it first and see?â
âI knowâ¦.â
âYou donât want to go, Brandonâ¦.itâs pretty obviousâ¦but why?... Youâve been so frustrated that you could do nothing about this pandemic. Now the universe Is offering you a solution via your great grandfatherâs legacy. God bless his soul, and now you want to throw it awayâ¦.â
âNoâ¦Ryanâ¦I justâ¦..â
âWhat exactly is the issue?â
âI could die, for goodness sake, or get stuck in the past lifeâ¦..â
âAnd if the pandemic wipes us out, you get another chance at a long life, Brandonâ¦â
âStuck in the â50s, with no family, knowing everyone dies?...not interested.â
âSo you are afraidâ¦.I canât believe my friend is being a coward.â
âWhy not goâ¦if itâs thatâs easy?â
âI canâ¦right away. Call your dad now that I am willing to go back in time to sort this outâ¦..do you know how many people will do anything to have this opportunity?â
âYou canât go, Ryan, only a scientist can sort this outâ¦.
