"I, Charlotte of class B6 would like to report a short research about time travelling" she stated as she clicked her laptop and the PowerPoint presentation was transitioning through the next slide.

"Time travelling, fictional for some people but according to a person it can be done with freezing people into tube like shapes for centuries." She then paused for a bit before turning the presentation to the next slide

"Here! As you can see, people from other countries tried to do it" She then showed pictures of people inside a cylinder tube, then pictures of a man dressed in a cloak with a machine that has many colored buttons.

"This however still isn't proven to work, scientists are only starting to test it" she slightly bowed before immediately going back to her seat.

"Since she's the last one to report, we are going to take our lunch as early as now." The professor said and dismissed all of them.

The noise in the cafeteria can be heard even outside, with the school being one of the top schools in the country, surely many people did enroll.

"Hey!" Her friend, Adelpha shouted and gestured for her to sit beside her.

"Your presentation earlier was cool" she blabbered only to be acquired with a hum.

As they were both eating a loud bang interrupted them, a boy accidentally crashed himself with another man who's wearing a messily wrinkled polo and an untidy hair, resulting for his tray to drop.

"Do you want a fight?" The man with an untidy hair asked angrily and the boy seem to be scared and was about to run, when he suddenly punched him repeatedly.

Everyone gasp,well except for Charlotte she lazily eats her food while daydreaming about what food will she eating later. But then she was interrupted by Adelpha's gasp.

"What"?" Charlotte asked.
"Look." She replied and pointed at them.

As soon as she sees it her mind wanders as she will face the consequences of being the student council president.

She immediately stood up and ran to the both boys.

"Stop" she calmly stated but he didn't even move an inch.

"I SAID STOP!" She shouted while still remaining a smile on her face, then to her surprise he loosened the grip and looked at her, making the other boy run.

"I have to record your name again" she sighed then calmly stated "what's your name again?"

"W-why for you to report me again you stupid teacher's pet" he stated.

Charlotte was a bit taken a back but then she said " Well at least I'm not that petty" then chewed her gum before frustratingly said "just f*cking answer the question"

"It's Kenlo" he stuttered and Charlotte only gave him a weird look before writting it down in her notebook.

"C'mon let's go!" She stated to her friend and soon walked away

As the class ended, she was walking down the street when she saw two men and three women wearing a lab gown and entering a van.

"Hey" she gestured for a taxi to come over.

"Can we follow that van?" She said and pointed at the van.

"Uhmm... Why ma'am?" The clueless guy asked

"They're my friends, it's my birthday today and I'm suspecting that they're preparing a surprise for me." She lied to the driver which seem to be convinced.

"Hop in" the driver said and closed the window.

The van made a lot of twist and turn which made the driver even more confused.

The van then suddenly stopped, "I guess we're here" she abruptly hand the cash and walked out.

The car that she was in earlier seem to vanish. The guys dressed in white coat walked out before they see her she hid near a bush and watch as they all entered a gate and it looks technological.

"Is he prepared?" One of the guys asked
"I guess so" a woman replied.
She sneaked inside while they're all talking at each other and luckily she was successful. She then separated from all of them and came inside a room.

As she walked in, facilities of laboratories welcomed her. The place was filled with tubes filled with unkown chemicals.

"What are you doing here?" The sound of a man was heard, his voice seem to be taunting her.

She looked back and saw a friend of her "Kenlo?" She asked in disbelief as Charlotte admired his features he was wearing a lab gown and a pair of glasses this time.

The glasses made his jawline even more noticable and the lab gown made him look taller

"Honey what are you doing here?" Kenlo sweetly said.

"Honey?" She asked in disbelief with a disgusted face.

"Sir Kenlo are you there?" A man suddenly bursted the door open and to her surprise it was the one who Kenlo beated up earlier.

"What is she doing here?" The guy asked and Kenlo replied with an "I don't know, maybe she came with us here secretly."

Charlotte was beyond confused, upon thinking she was interrupted with Kenlo stating "Honey let's go back." Kenlo whined at her.

"Where?" She worriedly asked.

"At our house." The man stated.

"whA-" she was interrupted when he pulled her hand and he ran across the room.

There she saw a circular thing and it almost looked like a portal.

"Where are we-" she was again interrupted when Kenlo pulled Charlotte inside it, as she was inside it light came through.

"We're here!" He stated

"Honey you're here!" A woman came inside the room and she hugged her.

"Who is thi-" She cuts herself off when she saw Charlotte.

They both looked at each other and now Charlotte recognized the woman, it almost looks like...HERSELF?!

Kenlo however was astonished, he was beyond shock, both of the girls looked at him with an unexplainable expression.

"Oh no." He worriedly stated.
