Oh my god. Where am I? I hear people screaming. My vision finally clears. There's a plane on the side of the building I am in. I'm so confused. I start running with people. I trip and I'm lost. I don't know where I am or what's happening.
I put the pieces together. So, I got knocked out by myself. Oliver took me to the time machine. We are in the past, I can tell because there are really fat computers in the desks nearby. I ask Oliver where I am.
Welp. I got you in the wrong place at the wrong time. There are no dinosaurs here. Today's 9/11. You're in the twin towers and you're going to die. Try to survive, and thank me later.
Okay, that's not good. I cover up my face with my shirt and breathe through my shirt filter. A firefighter comes and starts to escort me out of that place. I have a nice conversation and get to know him as I try my hardest to not die.
His name is Luke Miller. He has a dog named Chili and two daughters and a wife. His daughters' names are Jessica and Samantha. His wife's name is Sadie. He says he has a wonderful life, and he would never trade it for anything. Even in these kinds of scenarios. He loves to help people and he would rather it be his life than others.He's carrying another woman with an infant. The infant's crying, screaming. The woman seems to be someone who works here. She looks to be a middle-aged woman. I read her name tag. Julia Topeka.
There are hundreds of flights of stairs. Luke and I are trying to nab as many people as possible from the towers, and I manage to carry a girl with my skimpy, weak arms.
Luke has a mob of people behind him. He stops to go gather more people. He tells me to keep going and lead everyone out. Later, I see Luke with a new mob of people behind him.I'm still going down all the stairs. I'm very tired but my life depends on it. If walking had a speed limit, I had definitely passed it. Around twenty minutes later, I find I'm on the fifth floor. I lead everyone out as fast as I can. My head is going crazy.
Hey Leo, you need to calm down. I get that you're going through a lot right now, but your head is hurting BECAUSE WE CAN'T PROCESS ALL YOUR THOUGHTS RIGHT NOW.
Leo. SAVE YOURSELF! WHO CARES ABOUT EVERYONE ELSE!
I mumble a curse to myself. I'm getting a large migraine. I finally get to the last doorway and I tell everyone to hurry. After I'm sure everyone is out, and the little girl I was carrying is in an ambulance, I head back towards the smoking tower. When I head back, I see Luke leading a new mob of people. I lead them outside. Then, I hear a loud crash.
I jerk my head around, hoping to see Luke coming out of the growing dust cloud. Around an hour later, I see the dust cloud shrinking.
I run to the debris and look for Luke. I hope he just got lost in the dust cloud. I shout out his name, but I hear nothing.
