....A time machine." What!? How could it be a time machine? I mean how is that even possible? And most importantly, why isn't the world destroyed yet? At least the Protectors. "We have to find the person who possesses the machine" And that was all General said. Then we all dispersed to our tents. I stayed behind because I had some questions. "General Sir." "Yes?" "I need to ask you something." "Go on." "How did he make a time machine? And why aren't the Protectors or the world destroyed? And-and where is he?" "Well, we don't know how he made it. Or where he is. What we do know is that the theory behind is of constant future. You cannot change what is already there." "So the only danger left is of people who should have existed not existing. So, we can stop him in the middle because he is something of not that time period. So he shouldn't exist quite like those who should exist. So we can stop him if it is in our 'fate'." said Melvin "Yup, that about does it. Now go get some sleep. Big day tomorrow."
Next morning we were divided into groups. I was not with Clover. I didn't know anyone and I couldn't at least for now until I can work with them. The job was to find the machine. "At night yesterday we discovered that the device has to emit a certain radiation. We have built a device to track it. Whichever team finds the time machine first will win. Using the tracker of course." Then they gave us information about the device and we started off. We started off and it was easy enough. We just had to follow a blip. We soon got there but then we saw that it was accurate to 30m. So it was slightly tough. But then I saw it. A broken house. It was most likely there because it was a person who had hidden it and he would prefer the house so that he would be able to find it. As we went in, we saw something that surprised us. There was a person there! "Ok, who are you people and what are you doing here?" he said "Actually, we just need to search this house which we can because you obviously don't legally own it." He just gave a scowl proving my point. I was surprised he could live there. Even with a fridge and a fan and electricity in general. Probably from a generator. I mean he owns a fridge? It was tough to concentrate with the humming noise of an old fashioned fridge. And everything was so disorganised. In the middle of that, another team came in. It was all very disturbing. "Can you switch off the refrigerator?" "I don't have one." "Then what is that hum?"....
