Ersha and Andro moved out from the house. They went elsewhere to hide since the civil guards were already hunting them. The only retreat they have is the revolutionaries' hiding place. In there, lots of Andro's companions took shelter and one of them is Mario. The area is very discreet and no one would expect that its entrance is a passageway that leads to a cave. The spot is just in a shady area covered with bushes and huge trees. Some improvised warning tools were also made to signal the inside if someone gets in without knowledge of the placement of alarm devices.
As they walked in and were led to its designated cubicles, Ersha told Andro that she wants his spot to be beside her. With such request, he asks permission from the group for that matter in which they fully approved. Immediately, everyone went on their respective quarters to sleep for all of them got exhausted after the rescue operation of Andro in the prison. Only the assigned look out for the day were the ones who remained awake. The time was already 2 o'clock in the morning and bedtime for them has just begun. When everyone is fully asleep, Mario went into Andro's area and woke him up for he has something important to tell. If as much as possible, Ersha should also hear about it. So, the two sneaked out, entered Ersha's room and woke her up.
"Ersha, wake up.", said Andro in a whispering tone.
Ersha got up and got seated on her bed. "Why? What's wrong?", she asks while still feeling dizzy and sleepy eyed.
"Ersha, I saw you come out from that great light a few hours ago so I went to approach you. But as I moved closer, you were sleeping but kept walking, so I ushered you to those pile of leaves to stop you. Thankfully, you halted and lay down for the entire place is still in chaos due to the bombing. I'm sorry if left you there.", said Mario.
"What white light do you mean?", inquired Andro.
"Somewhat like a portal where one can cross to different time period. I already have suspicions that Ersha doesn't belong here and this day, I was able to confirm it.", answered Mario.
"Have you seen the person who opened that portal?", asks Ersha.
"Unfortunately no but I have a copy illustrating how to open it.", said Mario with a mischievous smile.
"Where have you get that? Is that really true?", commented Andro.
"Unless we try it.", remarked Mario while moving his eyebrows and smiling towards Ersha and Andro.
"Where have you gotten that thing?", reiterating the first question of Andro.
"Honestly, I was the one who breaks in the office of the governor and steal this thing. I'm sorry if it was you who has been suspected for it Andro. I just didn't have the chance to tell you the truth.", explained Mario then turned to Ersha to ask her, "do you want to go back home?"
"Uhhmm, actually I was been home after the chaos inside the prison. I woke up to my present world but after a few hours, I came back here again without knowing. I and my friends were consulting a sorcerer about my case and he told me that every time someone opens that portal, there's always an exchange individual in order to have a successful time travel." told Ersha to both Mario and Andro.
"Then who opened that thing here? I think he/she may have a copy of that document of yours." said Andro.
"Probably, and we don't know what his purpose for it.", commented Mario.
"Okey, let's think about that time travelling procedure later. Let's go back to sleep now', suggested Andro who is now very sleepy.
