The Return

Chapter 5

"Where are we?", said Jessica.
"Earth.", said Sam.

This doesn't look anything like Earth. So dark and destroy. The sky wasn't blue, it was gray. We couldn't even see the sun. Ashes everywhere .The world was fallen into pieces.

I see a sign saying 'London'
So we are in London, it means we are near Alexander's house.

I hear Jessica coughing heavily, we've been friends since 1st grade and she had asthma. She'd got better now but it hasn't completely ended.
We had to do something quick.

I remember every town hall was giving oxygen tanks so we could breathe fluently and safe. The tank latest about 4 hours.
The town hall should be here somewhere.

I localize where was the town hall, it was 3 blocks away from us. We went quick to get our oxygen tanks. I grab some flashlights, a rope, and a first aid kit.

When I got out of the town hall I asked myself, what now? I look to the left an see a building with the number '305'.
305, I've seen that number before. It was Alexander's house! Well that was near by.
"Guys, Alexander's house is right there.", I said.
"Great! Let's go.", Sam said.

There we are. Building 305. I turn the door knob even though I knew it was closed, but I was opened. I turned on my flashlight and start searching for documents and important information about him and the time machine.

We checked the first floor and there was no clue. I went upstairs and found he had a library. He had lots of books about the quantum theory and atoms which are related with the time traveling.
I check his room and found another book shelf. I got out a book and found a button at the back. I couldn't help it an pressed the button. His closet opened in half.

There was picture of his invention everywhere. His blue prints, ideas, unsuccessful ideas thrown in a metal trash can, and the instructions. Perfect! The instructions!
I rip it off the pin an take it with me.
"Guys I found everything we wanted lets go.", I said.
"Where it the lab", Jessica said while we exit the building.
"It's in The New Forest National Park in Southampton. I thought it was near but it's about 2 hours and a half from here", I replied.
I don't know why he wants his lab so far anyways.
"But how we'll get there?", Sam said.
I see a blue navy Aston Martin parked at the other side of the road.
"Oh, I know how we'll get there.", I said.
I already know how to drive, I have my driver's license, but who cares? I mean there is no police around here.
The car doors were opened and keys were inside, the battery was functioning, and it had gas; is basically a gift.

We get all inside the car and drive to Southampton.
