As they dined in the large dining room, Hanson cracked his voice and began to speak.

  "Young Simpson, I want to tell you a little story about myself."

  Andy looked up from his food and smiled, nodding in approval and attentiveness, mouthful.

  "I have never told anyone this, except my beautiful Elizabeth here," he pointed out.

  This time, Anderson's curiosity was risen. He knew this was very important, so he gulped the food piled in his mouth, asking, "Then why are you telling me this?"

  "Because I feel there's an adventure for you in this story, to help you achieve your goals."

  "Adventure?"

  "Yes, an adventure. I want you to listen very attentively. My wife and I have considered it, and we've come to agree we can trust you. We can, right?"

  Andy nodded. "Definitely."

  The couple smiled and exchanged glances.

  Andy immediately tapped on his SW to begin recording (this was unknown to the couple). He did this to make sure the information he was getting was accurate — if it was as important as they were making it sound.

  "Many years ago, while I was but a boy just out of highschool — about your age or so — my twin brother and I had earlier been working with our good friend, Nelson. We were working on something that would change the world forever, for either good or bad—"

  "What kind of project was it?" Andy interrupted. "A robot?"

  "Worse," said Hanson. "A Time Machine."

  Andy's mouth fell open. "That's impossible!"

  "You know the funny thing?"

  Andy shaked his head.

  "We did it."

  He frowned this time.

  "How could a bunch of teenagers create something the scientists have declared impossible?"

  He laughed, wryly, then said, "Young Simpson, I want you to picture yourself with some two others having better Intelligent Quotient, materials and connections; would there still be a doubt of impossibility when there's an equal, unshakable resolve to the project?"

  Andy gave it a thought. In a split-second, he began to picture the procedures of making one, and some of the highly prohibited technologies that would be involved to move time.

  "Hmm. . .I don't actually know what I think anymore."

  Hanson smiled.

  "Well, as I was saying; we succeeded in our project. But remembering the sweat, money, and connection it took us to get it programmed, we decided to keep it to ourselves. Not to mention it took us three good years to perfect.

  "Since we had decided the exact time to meet for practical—"

  "Wait. . .you mean like testing the machine by going through time?" Andy asked, cutting him wide-eyed.

  "Yes; so we met with Nelson who told us he'd already gone to the future and back with it. He was the one with the greatest brainstorms, so he housed the machine in his basement—" Andy smirked, thinking of his, "he explained how he passed the final year exam to us, that he'd gone to see the questions before writing the exam, so he could study on those particular areas.

  "It's true we felt it was not fair, because we all agreed to test it only in the holidays. He also told us what he'd noticed when he went to the past with any matter from the present. He said it was disastrous. For instance, he had a stone in his pocket when he went to the past. On arriving in the past, he threw the stone away, only to see it explode like a grenade when it landed." Andy's mouth fell open. "He did a quick study and realised that whatever exists now is not accepted by the nature of the past, because it never existed in the past.

  "He told us how he and his cousin had gone to the past with a high-tech that was in a form of a helmet which when worn, mind communication could take place."

  Andy laughed in complete incredulity.

  "That hasn't even been invented yet."

  "Exactly, he stole it from the future; I think he said the 30th or 40th century, can't remember which. He wanted something incredible, away from our time. And he got it. He actually got three, with us in mind."

  Andy nodded, billions of questions piling in his head.

  "After testing everything about how time worked, he came back and hypnotised his cousin so he wouldn't speak of it—"

  This left Anderson laughing hard.

  "The hypnotism was from what, a clock?" he asked.

  "Sort of, but a high-tech wristwatch from the future as well."

  He nodded, then looked down at his plate; he was already done with the Roast, so he washed his hands in a nearby bowl of water, then drank the remaining of the juice he was served. Next he wiped his hands.

  Meanwhile, Hanson was saying:

  "That was when our first adventure actually began. Nelson did some research about two annihilated clans in a West African country called Nigeria. The clans — the Avecs and the Kolowaris — annihilated over war, fighting over an ancestral land. Well, the plan was to stop them from getting to the war ground, which would be their death if they did; history said there were no survivers. So we embarked on the mission and, guess what happened—"

  Andy leaned forward, curiously. "You tell me."

  "We landed right in the middle of the war, but gracefully before it started. The Avecs on one side and the Kolowaris on the other. When we landed, they mistook us for gods because of their strong fear of deities—"

  "No way!" Anderson exclaimed. "Shit, that's magnificent!"

  "I know right?" said Hanson. "We were looked up in awe. I'd never felt that way in my entire life.

  "To cut the long story short, we saved the clans, beat some bad guys, and returned to the present, surprisingly, at our seperate homes."

  Andy arched a brow.

  "I'm not getting something straight, you said you travelled through time in a Time Machine, so how come you didn't mention landing in the past with it?"

  "Oh!" exclaimed Hanson, slapping his forehead, reminding Andy of Joce's popular gesture. "Forgive me for skipping that. When you go through time, the extradimensional channel takes the tesseract (the Time Machine), leaving you with just the wristwatch connected to it, strapped around the hand of the one in the front seat."

  Andy nodded.

  "Does that mean the tesseract has some kind of technological force or what?"

  "Yes, but I do not wish to start discussing formulas of old with you and how time flows," said Hanson, rounding up with his food.

  Andy nodded, then looked around and noticed Elizabeth had far left them. He tapped on his watch and saw that it was already past nine!

  Wanting to satisfy his major curiosity, he asked, "And how does all of this involve me?"

  Hanson smiled.

  "You're not thinking you can beat all those life-long scientists without a helping hand, are you?"

  Andy's mouth parted.

  "You're not — you're not suggesting I use the Time Machine, are you?"

  Hanson didn't answer that, he only pulled himself off his seat, standing full height. "I didn't say anything, you just did."

  Andy equally stood up.

  "Where can I find this machine?"

  Hanson smiled.

  "We could both do a little trip to Portsmouth, what do you think?"

  Andy's smile was as of a little boy who'd just been told he was a superhero.

  "Pick a day, and send me a mail. It was nice having you over," he extended his hand which Andy received, firmly.

  Elizabeth was descending from the stairs.

  "You're going already, dear boy?" came the elderly woman's voice.

  He nodded.

  "I really enjoyed the meal, ma'am. Thanks a bunch—"

  "No, thank you."

  Smiling, Andy asked, "For what?"

  "For joining us for dinner. We don't get any visitors, you know—"

  They exchanged some more pleasantries and left Anderson to part from their company. He went home with an adventure in mind.

* * *

  Jake and Amanda were seated before a table in The Central Restaurant. Jake was wearing a jean jacket over a blue top. His hair was spread over his forehead as he let the the guitar strapped around him exhibit a beautiful serenade; gently stricking the strings with his long finger nails. Amanda smiled — both palms spread on her cheeks — as she nodded her head to his spoken lyrics.

  She was in a plain, pink gown that made her seem to "sparkle" before everyone. All eyes were on their table. She felt on top of the world at that moment.

  Jake's so sweet!

  He continued playing the love song. She was totally in love with Jake, and she told him this, when he was done with his business of entertaining her.

  "Thank you," he replied with a dashing smirk.

  "How did you learn to play the strings so well, I mean. . .that was awesome!"

  He grinned.

  "My dad was into a band when he was alive—"

  She noticed the emotion he used in saying that. She knew there must have been strong intimacy between Jake and his dad.

  "I'm sorry for your loss."

  He smiled warmly at her.

  "May I ask your motivation for continuing his legacy?" she asked, wanting to know more.

  He smiled again. Then he looked down at the guitar slunged across his shoulder, on his stomach.

  "Dad played the strings for me as a kid, every bed time—" he smiled and looked away, then continued, "he always played with much emotional 'proximity', or should I say 'intimacy', that even after he died this string, here, moved everyone to tears.

  "If my dad ever had a fan, I was his number one."

  Amanda smiled at him in awe, her eyes growing misty.

  He leaned closer and said, "Can I tell you a little secret?"

  She nodded, curiously.

  "This is the tool he'd used to trap my mum to himself," he said, pointing to the guitar.

  Amanda giggled, gaily.

  "Oh, really," she said with a big smile, her hands still on her cheeks.

  He nodded, "Uh-huh."

  He was fiddling with his guitar to avoid locking gaze with her.

  "Well, I think you just got me with this."

  He raised his head. His face was not exhibiting an excited expression, but that of surprise. To cover it up, he nodded. The moment was ticking and they weren't saying anything, so he had to break the loud silence. "How was the meal?"

  "It's magnificent here! You know my whole family comes here for get-together once in a while. Their meals are just spectacular." She emphasised by kissing her joined thumb and middle finger, simultaneously.

  He smiled.

  "I've seen you and Jocelyn here, before."

  Her expression changed, instantly. Not that of anger, but that of sadness. She nodded, trying to quickly cover it up with a smile.

  "Is something wrong?" he asked, trying to get her look him in the eyes.

  "Wrong? No, nothing's wrong. Why would you think something's wrong?" her voice was unstable.

  He frowned.

  "What actually happened between you and Joce?"

  She didn't want to embark on this train of words, especially on their first date.

  "I don't think you'll understand."

  He peered closer to her, such that she couldn't avoid looking at him. "You wanna try me?"

  She looked at his assuring eyes and smiled.

  "Okay, then. I don't even know how to say this."

  "Just say it any how it comes out of your mouth, I assure you I'll understand. I might even be of help. Who knows?"

  She smiled.

  "She has this issue with trust. I mean...not like she doesn't trust me, but — there's this guy she likes—"

  "Andy."

  She nodded. "How did you know that?"

  He smiled, "Isn't it obvious? It's written all over her."

  She nodded with a smirk.

  "Well, she doesn't trust anyone around him. I mean anyone—"

  "But they're not even dating—" he pointed out.

  "Yeah, she has this phobia of, of loosing him."

  He nodded.

  "So is that why you're no longer friends?"

  "That's what led to it," she replied, already feeling her pulse rising.

  He didn't say anything, obviously waiting for her to continue. When she didn't, he asked. "So what actually happened?"

  "Can you imagine she broke off our six years lasting relationship, just because she saw me with Anderson?!"

  Jake beckoned to a nearby waiter to get two more glasses of juice.

  "What were you doing with Anderson?"

  "Learning Chemistry!"

  Laughter popped up Jake's throat like hiccups; this caused Amanda's face to turn read. She squeezed her face and folded her arms across her chest.

  When he noticed this, he chuckled and covered his face with one hand, muttering, "I'm sorry for laughing," extending the other hand at her as if it could wave her anger off.

  She smirked. She could see him suppressing more laughter.

  "I can see why she's angry, now."

  Amanda was surprised by this.

  "How is that?"

  "You were practically learning Chemistry with her 'boyfriend'," his cacophonic laughter continued.

  She raised a questioning eyebrow.

  "Imagine me teaching Joce music, privately, everyday. I'm sure you'll feel okay by it," he said, less sarcastically.

  She sighed, getting the point now. . .

    Yo guys! Sorry, Andy's not in this one. But I hope you'll like it. Also, don't be confused by the name, "Amanda." One is the mother of Harry, the other is his classmate.– – – –The birds chirped over the window frame, euphoniously. The heatless sun hung delicately in the clear blue sky, while the air smelt nice and cosy. Harry gave himself a big stretch on the bed, with a roar-like yawn.

    Anderson was doing some workouts at the gym, that night, when Harry called him to ask where he was. Andy replied that he was at the gym, and Harry said he was on his way. In less than twenty minutes, Harry'd arrived there to meet his friend all reddened and sweaty, seated with a towel around his neck, a bottle of water in his hand, and his outerwears just beside him on the bench. His mouth was in an evil smirk. As Harry advanced towards him, he observed his surrounding — perfect — save for the misplacement of some machines. "Hi, Anderson." "Hi, Harrison." Harry smiled. "My dear friend has gotten into a fight, which is a rare topic these days. You literally fight once in a year." Andy raised his eyes to him, without a smile on his face. "I've not even said anything, yet." "You don't have to, I know the smile you make when you've kicked someone's butt." Harry watched as Andy uncapped the bottle

    Mr Hans — or simply Hanson — had just finished speaking to Anderson that evening on phone. After the call, he sat back to reflect on the day. He'd done lots of work at the workshop, and sold so many stuffs. He smiled, with the feeling of self-accomplishment. Inventing was cool, he thought. You could practically do anything you wanted, as long as you could think it. Hanson's bedroom was practically a lab. His bed was a robot — one could make it warm and cosy by pressing the red button at the base of the bed. One could also make it rotate, just for the fun of "traveling while sleeping", by pressing the green button beside the red. There was a little switch at the head of the bed always on neutral. If you pushed the switch up, it raises the bed up — near-ceiling-length — and if you pushed it down, it lowers the bed. In addition to this, all his windows worked on a remote. The remote also controlled his room cabinets. It had just two buttons

    The bell rang for end of classes. All the students scurried off the classroom, leaving frustrated Mrs Corbyn screaming out, "Oh come on! Can't you all just wait a little for my conclusion on the topic?!" But of course, she wasn't expecting an answer. "This Agric teacher is the weirdest I've ever encountered in my entire life," said Tom to Harry. They both grinned and packed their books to the locker room, hurriedly. On their way, they saw Jocelyn at the other side of the sea of moving students, walking with Amanda who held some textbooks to her chest, protectively. They chuckled as they walked, but did not notice the boys. Harry couldn't remember when last he'd seen the duo together. They even sat together at lung. His eyes clung to the girls, still, and then. . . "Ouch! Watch where you're going!" a familiar voice cried, after bumping into Harry. The books in Harry's arms spilled to the ground. He quickly bent to pick them, then raised his hea

    When Hanson came over to Anderson's home, Harry and Jocelyn had already parted to their various homes. Hanson and Mr. Simpson spoke in the living room for some minutes before he excused the latter to see Andy. Andy was seated on his bed with a frame of his mother in his hands. When he heard the knock on the door, he quickly hid the frame under a pillow, replacing it with his old action figure toy. The old man came in with a warm smile. His hair spread across his forehead, cocking out from underneath his fascinator which was gently placed on his head. He was wearing a knee-length garment over a sweatshirt and a pair of pants. "Mind if I join you, Young Simpson?" he asked, while Andy gestured to sit beside him. Hanson looked around the room. It was spacious and neat, filled with lots of books on the overhead shelves. The room was well-polished with tall cabinets. At the end of the room, there was a desktop computer whose monitor

    Saturday morning. Andy woke up with a big stretch. He felt unusually happy. Some birds played serenades that tickled his ears from his half-opened window. The sky was white and free from any flapping bird; winter had its way of doing that. The wind howled like a wolf under the full moon. That the chimney was on, Andy could tell due to the warmness that engulfed him. He quickly reached for his pair of binoculars, threw himself off the bed, slipped on his anticipating pair of slippers and scurried off to the bathroom where he washed his face thoroughly, brushed his mouth, then finally went for a bath. He laid inside the bathtub, completely caressed by the warm, soapy water in it. It was amazing to finally be visiting Portsmouth, and Andy knew it. He could see himself walking down its ancient streets with cathedrals and Queen Elizabeth's naval Hospitals. He could smell the nostril-soothing breeze, and the mouth-watering fruits in the market

    Jake paced about in his room, his hands locked behind him. He was wearing on a brown-collared sweatshirt over a pair of ash-coloured joggers. The windows were shut close, because of the weather. Karen and Kaycie sat on the soft mat beside his master bed. They were seated Indian style with their eyes closed; they were inactive at the moment. Jake was working new programming updates on them. The cyborgs were wirelessly connected to a big white contraption. "Sentics completed!" announced the contraption. "Yes," Jake said to himself. "B2Q, let's test them." "Rebooting the cyborgs!" came it reply. Jake walked up to them and unbuttoned their shirts to observe the blinking lights on their necks. It was green. He smiled, nodding. "Perfect." "In three, two—" Jake moved back a little, "—one. Power on." Karen and Kaycie's eyes opened, simultaneously, to meet Jake's wide smile, and cocky eyes. "

    Saturday morning, that same day.JOCELYN spread her hands, sideways, before the moving waves of the beach. She needed to refresh her mind a little, and this was her best option. She'd come all by herself; her parents knew her well enough to understand she preferred being alone when she had emotional problems than to speak with someone about it.The wind embraced her, causing her blonde hair to fly over her shoulders away from her back. Her silk gown ran hither in the wind. The waves of the sea swooped down and chilled her tender feet. Her eyes were tightly shut, she wanted to feel every sensation of the wind. She wanted to listen only to the song it sang in her ears, she needed the cold to make her pull away from the heat she felt underneath her skin. She let her tears flow gently down her eyes, rolling down her cheeks.She had her own problems, and was happy the wind understood her, it sang songs about a pretty damsel who seemed to have everything but had n

    “This is where they die? I don't think so!” Just when everyone had lost hope, after being covered in by Dr. Archer's robots, Andy and Jake heard a familiar voice. Averting their gazes, they looked towards the hole waiting to see the speaker. Anderson activated his binoculars to scan where Thomas was standing behind the wall, but surprisingly, he wasn't even there. It seemed that someone had dropped a little speaker on the ground. It was only a means for the robots to avert the pressure from the group inside, for a moment. Realising this, Anderson smiled. He quickly sent Enboe-21 a series of instructions, and ‘boom, boom, boom!’ fireballs began to fall on the robots moving out to check the person who had the guts to boldly declare that the group within would be save. Enboe-21 fireballs were much more powerful than that of most robots, due to the QED connected within him, intensifying the converted energy.

    On seeing the approaching old man, the whole crowd was stirred up. This was the Dr. Archer everybody mused over, and just like they thought, he really met up to the descriptions. He walked with his hands behind his back, and his head raised in the disposition of an expert. Despite the ruckus the crowd was making, he did not even feel the least disturbed. He walked slowly, as though extremely conscious of where to place his foot next, to the platform where those who had just finished Stage 3 were stationed. After shaking his head slightly, Anderson quickly asked Enboe-21 if the features of this man matched what they'd seen in Time. “Positive,” Enboe-21 replied in an undertone. Nodding his head, Anderson commanded, “Give instructions to the bird of Jove, we begin now.” Without drawing any attention to themselves, Enboe-21 closed its eyes and sent a telepathic message to the bird of Jove, t

    The auditoriums were full of moving people. Some went to and fro to get some food from the carpark, others travelled to other auditoriums to visit acquaintances. Just everyone was getting warmed up for the next challenge. Three hours had passed already since the competitions begun. The Greatest Scientist of the Age had commenced by ten o'clock, and now it was already few minutes past one, in the afternoon. Situated in the front row of the Auditorium B where Anderson and Professor Nelson were seated, Mr. Simpson had come to join the company. If there was anyone more proud of Anderson, right now, it was his father. Anderson explained that he'd learnt vital knowledge from Professor Nelson, which had aided him big time, throughout his first two stages. However, he carefully made sure to conceal anything relating to the main mission he was here for. If indeed his mother was still alive, they all just had to wait. He

    Some twenty minutes after Anderson had left the hall, about three people stepped out. They were all from the London set. Next came Jake, then four others. Ten minutes after, ten more came out and met up with the cutoff mark. Including Anderson, the number of people who reached the cutoff mark summed up to 19. The remaining 14 had to return to their respective families, in the audience, in disappointment. Seated at the far end of Auditorium C was Principal Sanderson. He heaved a sigh of relief after finding out that both Anderson and Jake successfully passed the first stage. “Phee-yoo!” he sighed, taking a bite at his burger.* * * “Congratulations to those of you who successfully crossed into the next stage.

    After the rules had been explained carefully listed and elaborated to the competition, the contestants were each asked to provide an Artificial Intelligence inventory. One must know that it was a criteria to being eligible to even join the competition. At such everyone began to give instructions to their robots to step out. Different forms of robots stepped out. It was a “once in a lifetime” opportunity for one to see so many robots. Different television media were also present, taking the sight live on air. One after the other they began to bring out their robots for observation. After the observation, three people were, sadly, disqualified from the competition for their robots not meeting up to the required level of intelligence needed to proceed. Earlier, the man on the auditorium mentioned his name to be Mr. Kennel. Mr. Kennel had checked everyone's robot, yet the auborn-haired fellow who went by the name, A

    Thursday and Friday passed off very quickly, then the day everyone waited for arrived. Saturday carried a graceful beauty in Mcbornie town. The roads had earlier been designed in all the roads of the traditional counties that led to DR. ARCHER'S “GREATEST SCIENTISTS OF THE AGE”, in Portsmouth. The previous day, which was Friday, almost all of the families in Mcbornie town had travelled all the way for the day's program. They were dressed in all sorts of splendid dresses that fitted for this occasion. To think they were all here, especially for Anderson Simpson. If even the mentioned knew about this, he would have puked blood on the discovery. It was just too magnificent. If one looked properly, before the massive building, one would notice two girls giggling and having a lively discussion. Of course, it was no other than Amanda and Jocelyn. Ten miles away, a family of five were in a shining blue car, advancing towards that

    THURSDAY. Over at Portsmouth in Sir Nelson's Villa, Anderson had just successfully read the second book that had been given to him. At the moment, it was already cross noon. Having successfully cleared Stage Four, which was the Mental Fortitude Test, he knew he had to hasten up to cover the first three stages, foremost. But before then, he grab some meal. Done with the meal, he contemplated for a while on what stage to clear off first. Recounting the first three stages, there was no doubt the easiest to clear after establishing his mental fortitude would be Stage 2 and 3 (the Disposition Test and Robot-manipulation Test). Because of how connected those two stages were, there was a room marked Stage 2 and Stage 3 where one could carry out this knowledge test. In fact, it was no different from calling it one test. “Humph, I should give it a try!” Pushing the door in, he stepped inside the wide room, immediately af

    WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. Seated at the school park, on a dual swing, during the long break was Thomas and his sister Tiana. The latter had finally been discharged from the hospital, earlier that day, and had come to see her brother at school to tell him the good news. They both discussed cheerfully, as they swung. A new life was ahead of them. The joy they derived from having real, loving parents was unexplainable. Despite the pressing schedule of the Mcformulas, they always pinched out some time to visit Tiana at the hospital. Sometimes they come with flowers, other times they save Thomas the stress of having to send food over, by doing it themselves. This way, they were able to establish love and trust with Tiana; and their efforts did pay. At the moment, Tiana had been telling Tom all her school mates had been telling her about what Time had done to James the great bully. No matter how many times they retold the story to her, they would

    “Karen and Kaycie, as you both know, the reason I called you both here is because the competition is already by the corner. I'm sorry I've been unable to upgrade your system units. Still, there's nothing more I can do.” Sighing, Jake shook his head. No matter how well he tries to get the QED, it only ends up futile. Now, he was left with nothing but these robots. Although in the presence of others, they may look very impressive, in truth, they really weren't satisfactory and could not be placed side to side with real cyborgs. “I've been keeping tabs on Anderson, and it seems he has already gone off to Portsmouth in advance. He's trying to be upfront, but we must take the leading arm.” Jake was seated with his legs crossed on a table. To no one in particular, he began to say, “The Greatest Scientist of the Age has prerequisites to eligibility. A personal AI inventory, and knowledge necessary to pass the brain te
