mouse. He then tried to stretch his hands just to see if the poor thing was still in there or it had actually disappeared. But still, there was something still holding him back and no matter how hard he was trying to get things in the right way, it just seemed as though he was gong to have to work much harder than that. And so he closed his eyes and opened it at once.
The rat had evidently disappeared. But the problem was that there was absolutely no way that it was ever going to come back since Dr. Greene didn’t know how he was going to do just that. It had been three hours since he had initiated the reversal process but from the look of things, it did seem as though it was gone forever – a mystery that he just couldn’t solve.
But that was to be a problem for another day. As far as he was concerned, he had achieved the first milestone, to teleport an animal without killing it or turning it into toast. And even though it couldn’t come back, Dr. Greene still thought he was making some incredible progress and that said, the most important thing for him to do at that moment would have been to stay focused and get to make the most of it.
He had spent eighteen hours in his laboratory, and as far as he was concerned, that was just way too much time, and he needed some rest. So he picked up his coffee mug and took off his spectacles and let out a long, very stressful yawn before stepping out of the room. But it was at that moment that the strangest thing happened.
The time travel machine started running and the light from the little chamber where the rat had been put in shone. This was a little bit strange and it went without saying that Dr. Greene got back in his seat and put on his spectacles right before staring at that machine without blinking. The LCD screen at the controls indicated that the subject was back in the machine and Dr. Greene just couldn’t hide his excitement as he rushed to check out just what was going on.
Once the self-initiated sequence was completed, Dr. Greene came from his chair and ran toward the door of the time travel machine, shaking all over the place. He had just had the most amazing progress, and now he was about to find out whatever the heck was going on. And so after taking his deep breaths and checking it out, he opened the door to the time travel machine.
But what he saw made his jaws hit the floorboards literally!!
…Synopsis…Book 2
Dr. Greene was still having the scare of his entire life, and that said, it appeared as if he wasn’t going to get over it. But he also knew that everyone gets scared once in a while. But what they did with the fact that they were very scared was what seemed to matter the most. And as far as he was concerned, the only thing that would have made some sense at that time would have been to kick back and ensure that he was doing the right thing.
Once he had been accustomed to being in the time machine for the first time, Dr. Greene clenched his teeth, trying as much as possible to avoid his body from shaking right before pressing the red button and holding tight as his entire body disintegrated, separating on an atomic level.
“AAAAAAAAH!!!”
Chapter 1
-The Aftermath-
At first, it seemed as though Dr. Greene was in some shock since he wasn’t uttering a word.
All he could do at that moment was just to sit back and watch without even blinking. The rat was back from the other dimension or time zone, but there was something that just didn’t make any sense at all. And despite the fact that Dr. Greene knew that there must have been a pretty good explanation for it, it seemed as though it was all just too darn shocking for him to even begin comprehending on whatever the heck was going on at the time.
The rat didn’t look as though it had been harmed in any way whatsoever. But that aside, it seemed as though the rat had undergone some changes in its anatomy that just didn’t appear to make any sense. For instance, the
