A race against time

Astro sat in a classroom, listening to the teacher. He sighed, it had been three months ever since he had returned to the future. One of his best friends, Ajeero, glanced at him.

"What's wrong Astro?" Ajeero questioned. Astro shook his head and smiled at his friend.

"Oh, it's nothing." Astro said. Ajeero frowned, and leaned towards him.

"Hey, does it have anything to do with you going to the pa-" Ajeero was interrupted by a cough from their teacher.

"Ajeero, do you have something that you want to share with the rest of the class?" Ajeero froze. He then laughed nervously.

"Uh, no." The teacher nodded, and continued back to the lesson. Ajeero sighed in relief, and glanced at Astro. "Tell me after." Astro nodded.

After class, Ajeero, Kennedy, Abercrombie, and Astro sat inside their tree house. Abercrombie, Ajeero, and Kennedy stared at Astro expectantly.

"Well? What's up?" Ajeero questioned. Astro smiled.

"I told you, it's nothing. I'm just a bit worn out is all. You know, with all the fighting that I've been doing. I need a break once in a while. The three humans didn't buy it. They looked at each other, and nodded.

"Listen, Astro. Did something happen while you were in the past?" Kennedy questioned. Astro's eyes widened. He then thought back to you. 'I don't ever want to see you again!' Astro's expression saddened at those words. He then stood up.

"Look guys, I don't really want to talk about this. Let's go play soccer." Astro suggested. The three humans glanced at each other, and nodded. Astro smiled and grabbed the soccer ball in the corner of the tree house, and made his way towards the park. Ajeero sighed.

"Okay guys, it's obvious that he's not going to tell us anything." Abercrombie stated. Kennedy looked towards him.

"How about we get Rino to talk to him? I mean, Rino is pretty good when it comes to consoling people." Kennedy suggested. Ajeero nodded.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. I'll call him right now." Ajeero then took out his phone and searched for Rino's number. He then dialled it, and waited for him to pick up. When he did, he smiled. "Hey Rino. Something's off about Astro, can you talk to him and see what's bothering him? I don't know, but I think it may have something to do with the past. Yeah, so you'll be able to meet with him? Okay, thanks. Bye." Ajeero then hung up. Abercrombie and Kennedy waited eagerly for Ajeero to tell them what happened. Ajeero turned to them. "Rino said that he'd do everything he can to find out what's wrong with Astro. Hopefully Astro will confide to him to least." Abercrombie and Kennedy nodded.

Astro and Rino sat in front of the docks, staring into the water, the setting sun giving the water a healthy glow. Rino glanced at Astro, then to the water.

"Something happened, didn't it? In the past." Rino said. Astro's eyes widened. He then sighed.

"The others put you up to this, didn't they?" Rino nodded. He then looked at Astro.

"You know, we're all here for you. If something happened, you can always tell us. We're your best friends. So, please. You're worrying everyone." Astro sighed, and nodded.

"All right, I'll tell you. You see, it all started when I was battling Dr Mini mini. He had attacked the ministry of science with one of his new inventions. We were battling when he had shot me with this weird laser. The next thing I knew, I was in the past. I had woken up to an old man and a girl. They were helping me by giving me energy, but the girl accidently gave me too much energy." Rino nodded.
