Afterschoolers: Glory

Epilogue

Years later...

"Dad, are you sure about this?" Maya asked. The basement she stood in was dark and cold. A large metal tube sat in the center of the room, containing a clone of Mr. Cord. A large bucket of water sat off to the side, still as could be.

"I'm sure. Think of it as insurance for the future. Peace of mind for me if things take a turn. Julianna, are you ready?"

"Ummm yeah. As ready as I'll ever be." Julianna took hold of the water and surrounded the encased clone in ice. At first the clone began to writhe in pain from the cold, but then it was destroyed.

"Ugh... Again!" Cord brought forth another clone that stepped into the capsule. Maya's heart sank with every failed attempt, but she knew that the future was hinging on the success of the time capsule.
