Chapter 43:
The Quantum Reactor
"Ughh.. just where am I?" Said the girl who just woke up
She had no clue as to where she is, or why, until she then actually remembers her mission. Which she made her get her IV out and go outside, where the nurses were shocked.
"Miss, you mustnt come out of the room!" The nurses said
"I must see johnny storm right now!" She said as she continues to walk down the halls with just her hospital garment
As the nurses continue to convince her while she walks, john immediately shows up at lightning speed after a few minutes.
"You looking for me?" John said as he now stood in front of her
When he took a good look at her, she was a bit thin and cute, though there seems an air of death and sorrow around her.
"Yes! I cant believe it! I have--" she said before john cuts her off
"Pardon me but, who are you? Many are now asking who you may be, since there are absolutely no records about you in this world." John said seriously
"Ah, yes. Sorry about that. My name is yelena, and may I ask what is the year now?" Yelena said
"Its now 2023, why do you ask?" John said, curious
"So I definitely have travelled 400 years in the past." Yelena said, thinking what to do next
"I knew you might bring trouble, though lets hear your story after you wear something decent and a cup of coffee." John said as he produced a set of girls clothes from the bag he carried
"Whats coffee?" Yelena said as she accepted the clothes
"Hahh.. you are as I just thought you might be from, for not knowing coffee." John said, rubbing his temple. "Anyways, get dressed first, then we will talk."
"Ok." She said as she then immediately unbutton the hospital garment.
"Whoa! Hold on there! Lets get back to your room before you get dressed. I didnt think that the future would be this bad." John said as he guided her back to her room
Then there in her hospital room, she got dressed as instructed, while she also explains her current situation in the future.
"So lets put this straight, you come from 400 years in the future, about 300 years after my death, where the situation is now so desperate that the leaders choice was only to send someone back in time. In order to prevent the incoming war about 400 years later, where it totally devastated about most life in the whole universe, specially the damage done with the human race. Is that all?" John said, summarizing everything as he as seated at the corner
"Yes. Even though I came here with my comrade, I think hes now dead, so its maybe pointless to ask him." Yelena said before she finished and sat on the other chair
"Probably. Since the main theoretical problem when doing time travel is always with the soul, whether the soul stays with the body or not during the travel, even if the body stays intact. So, who is the enemy this time?" John said
"Thats what they also explained to me before the travel! Glad your as smart as what the stories say. And as for the enemy, its still the council." Yelena said
"What?! What actually happened?!" John said
"I have actually explained everything before right? Though if only my comrade was here, he could explain everything." Yelena said
"You mean that they just levelled up during that time?! And what happened to humanity during the 300 year period it was to develop?" John said
"The thing is, by the time I was born, earth was now at war with the council. So no one actually bothered to tell on what really happened when the war started, as everyone was just so busy with surviving and stuff. Along with the octoguys, avians, fishmen, and reptilians." Yelena said
"So you dont know how the war started huh, except that the enemy is still the council." John said
"Yes, thats right." Yelena confirmed as john was now silent
Then by the time the girls came, john explained to them the summary of what happened after 400 years into the future.
"This looks bad. We have to inform the world leaders immediately!" Silk said as the girls were all just standing
"Only if her story is true. Though we cant just deny her story, since she came from a damaged octoguy med ship." Frey said
"And there were some gravitational quakes as well during her arrival, which all really made sense." Aya said
"So, how did you ever time travel back to the past?" Alex said to yelena
"There were some mutants who helped, and came from far places knowing the risk. Where there were 3 mutants who opened the gate with the powers of blackhole, phase shift, and boost. All while others protect us from the council. Those 3 are probably dead by now due to enemy attack or due to power overuse." Yelena said
"Hmm.. if you put it like that, its really possible to make something like a wormhole. Since wormholes and blackholes do look alike after all." Claire said
"Dont worry yelena, we will certainly tell your story to the world leaders and take precaution. Right guys?" Alex said, assuring her
"Yes, but the question is, why after johns death? And of course, we would all be gone after 400 years in the future." Beth said
"That, even I dont know." Yelena said
"It just means that the council currently fears us right now, and what do you think those kind of people do when backed to a corner?" John said
"They get smarter, in order to take revenge." Claire said as the girls agree
"Damn, you people are very smart." Yelena said
"Nope, its just that you were brought up at the wrong time." Alex said
"Anyways, girls, you know the drill. You all begin making all the necessary stuff, while I make some calls." John said as he stood
"What will you guys do now?" Yelena said as the girls agree
"We will fast forward building the fleet for the expedition." John said with a smile
"A fleet for what expedition? Just had to ask, just to be on the same page here." Aya said
"Of course, we will go to the stars at light speed, both to save the universe and to socialize with other species." John said
"Just as I thought. But if you wish to leave--" aya said when she was being cut off
"I dont wish to leave, not at all aya. But if the universe will be in despair after 400 years later, where damages would reach earth the heaviest, I have no other choice. Theres even someone from the future asking us for our help personally, representing all people and aliens in the future." John said, referring to yelena
"But wont we leave our children for that very purpose?" Alex said as the girls agree
"Who said its just us that will be going? Its gonna be a fleet you know! So both humans and aliens are gonna go of course!" John said with a smile
As the girls now understood what he intends to do, and after they left yelena to the hospitals care, they now got to work. And as the girls were now busy with what they can do for the company, and beth now speeding up space construction for space travel, john was now busy calling all the world leaders and to the alien leaders. To report everything about yelena, and to discuss about the new or early possibility of space travel.
