Author's POV:-

The administrators left the capsules with their bodies in their secret room untouched for a month; the entryway was sealed; the whole floor was restricted from anyone visiting, not even the cleaners or workers and also including all the people knowing about this project. After exactly a month the administrators and the elite staff who knew about this secret mission gathered and unsealed the room waiting eagerly yet patiently for five of them to arrive with the docket of historical moments from different timelines that they must have captured and experienced.

The first capsule to unlatch was of Noah followed by Fane and Lucas and then Ryan, each one of their capsules slightly jiggled and made a vending machine sound while unlocking as they opened their eyes and stepped out of their respective capsules with fog plastering the room and their bodies. When the fog disappeared and everyone welcomed the four men, that's when they notice there are just four of them and Joshua's capsule never unlocked, he didn't come out but still, everyone waited hoping maybe he will arrive till noon or midnight, they kept waiting for Joshua to show up while listening to the experiences of the other four men and admiring the pictures and videotapes that they captured.

Fane and Lucas were discussing the blood-curdling wars of both India and Zama and how difficult it was for them to keep themselves hidden while recording that blizzard of arrows and banging-bashing of swords and missiles and the crimson red blood all over the site with that septic smell of death hung over the battlefield while Noah shared about the giant and beautiful woolly mammoths roaming freely and bravely everywhere before their extinction, and likewise, Ryan reciting the history about how the print culture started from woodblock printing and some of the not so necessary facts that he discovered regarding China like the drastic evolution in the standard of living, the craftwork, the precedence of dynasties and so on.

At precisely 9:43 P.M. interrupting Ryan's words, Joshua's capsule unlatched, everyone's attention turned over to his capsule, and their lips curved into a meek smile and as the smile appeared it faded as the figure came into the view amidst haze because instead of Joshua there arrived a beautiful young woman with copper curls of mid-back length, light blue eyes with long lashes, the perfect oval face shape, soft plump reddish pink lips, small nose, short and narrow jaw, high cheekbones, clear and perfectly smooth skin and judging from her perfect curves maybe she is in her 20s.


The woman wore a smock-like dress that was held together at the shoulders by fibulae and a shawl was worn over it. The lady also wore a belt with a bag attached to it around her waist. She is definitely from the 13th century and the strangest part was that she was carrying Joshua's belongings like his watch, his time turner locket, and even his camera and above all, her left arm is bleeding heavily. The woman scanned her surroundings and smiled.

Everyone's face exhibited a similar bewildered expression, questions flooding into their cerebrum like Who is this woman? Why is she carrying Joshua's belongings? Why is she wounded? and where the hell is Joshua? Will he ever come back or not?
