Chapter 6 - BACK TO THE PAST

THE YEAR 1900, in Wales

''where am I, Dr. Greg where is he''

''I have to find my way back home''

Henry got up and started walking, he walked a mile and his legs got tired, he stopped to rest. Then a minute later he continued, the hot sun shined on him and he was thirsty, he collapsed on the floor and everything blacked out. Henry woke up and found himself in a tent with man who was sitting nearby him,

''where am I, what am I doing here''?

''come down boy, your safe with me''

''who are you, are you a kidnapper''

''I didn't kidnap you I was riding my horse around the desert when I saw you on ground, you passed out because you were tired.

''thank …. You''

''It no problem, my name is John''

''My name is Henry''

 ''Henry it's nice to meet you, are you from around here''?

''it's nice to meet you too, am not from around here''

''what were you coming from that you passed out''

''I was .... Looking for my way, I was lost''

''where are you from then''

''am from America and I cannot seem to find my way back home''

''how did you get lost''?

''A device brought me here and I can't find that same device, because I was holding it when I vanished''.

The man went to his bag and asked

''is this the device you are talking about''

Henry saw the orb and said to him

''it the same as my own, where did you get it from''

''I didn't get it I found it''

''how where''?

''I am John the scientist who got missing after that thunder struck''

Henry was surprised that it was john the missing scientist but in a younger version of himself. John explained to Henry how he got here.

''when the thunder struck, it seems it made the orb alive with his power. Then I wanted to grab it, but it just sucked me and I landed here but not in this year.''

''what a minute what year is this''?

''it's the 1900's''

''what!!!, so am in the past it looks unbelievable though, but looking that you weren't driven a car or wearing something more stylish like the present, it signifies it''

''are insulting me''

''no am not am just saying''

''do you know I invented some of the devices you use to make those cars and cloth''.

''I don't know, but I do know that you created the most amazing inventions well known today''.

''let's leave that aside and find a way to get back in our respective years.''

''but how do we do that, the one you have is damaged''

''I know, but the only way of getting back is if we get a new one, but how?''

''bingo, you said that this year is 1900, what if we go to the exact place at the exact time the orb landed at your work place''

''that's right, the only way to get a new one is to be there when the incident happened''

Henry and john embarked on their journey to John's work place, to get a new orb, so that they can get back to their respective timeline.
