Chapter 9 : Action

I passed our preliminary test. Out of 1222 safety time travelers, 1100 remained.

I am very happy so I hugged my new friend named Hannah. We both passed the preliminary exams and reduced weight to comply for our physical test.

Hannah was two years younger than me. Her skin was white and she got pointed nose.

Our next training will be the harder. This time, we will memorize all the function of our time traveling suit. Out trainor said that it our ultimate weapon and our hidden power. It consists of 999 functions than can be operated in three ways. This are by means of physical touch to the button, telepathy command and voice command. We must memorize all of the shortcut numbers with initial letters in order to use our suit immediately. Like for example, if I say "PS 18 F" my protector shield will appear in front of me while "PS 18 WB" will protect my whole body. To time traveler, we must say "TM 1 March 05, 2016, Sta. Cruz, Tarlac City, Philippines " to go to date, time & place. There are lots of alternative, we can also say "TM 1 and just think of specific happening and place in our vision then we will quickly appear on the place. If we are not hurrying or if we forgot the codes, we can press the help buttons that will projected once we pressed our tracking watch. Some codes were difficult and need lots of understanding especially when combining with the continuously operating device in our suit.

I did my best. I memorized clearly all of the codes. I sleep less and memorized while taking bath and eating foods.That is why when we got our result. I'm the only one who got perfect score. Hahaha! My head became a little bigger! I ranked 1 when it comes to memorization and analyzation on what code to use. Though it feels like I am super incredible, I thanked Jesus Christ and Lord God for helping me to have a sharp memory.

Those who didn't got 70 and up score were fired. That is why only 998 remained competent.

"You are very intelligent, Lyrids." Hannah said to me while we are walking out of the room.

"Thank you. You too because you passed it." I happy said to her.

"The next exam will be the actual execution of the codes." She said to me.

I ate my saliva and my eyes became bigger.

"I am good in memorizing and analyzing but I am not sure if I can execute it." I said to myself.

So today we are wearing our suit. We looked so sexy because it fits our body. We stand up straight and entered a cylindrical tube that brought us to an underground.

We saw an endless wide and dark road.

"What is the ending?" Hannah asked.

"I don't know." I said to her while looking on it.

On the top of the wall, Mr. Shaw appeared and give us instructions.

"This road will test your ability to use your time traveling suit. All of you must use any functions in order to get on the finish line minutes except the time traveling and codes that could make anyone hurt. If one of you did that then automatically removed from this area and be fired."

I did sign of the cross because I don't think I can think on the dark road.

"Be there on or before 4 minutes. If you want to give up, then pressed the green button on your right chest."

"Wow, so fast." Heinz said sarcastically. His appearance was 6 feet tall with an American guy look.

When we heard the countdown turns to 1, we started running.

"FS 2 100KPH" I silently said that makes my shoes became a jet plane that can run 100 kilometer per hour. I am as fast as a sports car.

I stretch my arms and said another code that I know that makes me faster than those who used foot speed booster.

"JS 111 200 KPH" I fly above them and saw that some forgot the codes and just keep on running.

A small fire ball were trying to hit us. So I used my whole body protection.

Then when I saw two roads, I used the tracking road of which is the safest.

I went to left side. Those who entered right side saw some tigers. So they run for their lives and used some codes to kill it while I am moving above them and the only one who used this.

"SL 289" I said when I remember the speed of light code that makes me as speed as the light.

For 5 seconds on using that they were all shocked to me. I came on the finish line for only 3 minutes.

"Unbelievable. She's a record breaker." Mr. Shaw said while viewing us.

After 10 seconds, another person came followed by 40 persons.

We hugged each other.

Hannah unfortunately didn't passed because she came 2 seconds late with the others.

After the executed test, Mr. Shaw announce that out of 998, we are now 780.

Hannah cried because of failing, so I hugged her while tapping her back.

All of those who passed were moved to another location.

We again entered the tube and were relocated to a simulated ocean where we can feel and see the sun.

"Wow, I looks like we are on the planet Earth!" A woman far away from me said loudly.

We are standing one by one on the cliff. I can identify that the ocean was more than 100 ft.

Mr. Shaw appeared on the sky again.

"Same rules but different location, to test if all of you have the ability to overcome fear of water."

"The ocean was infinite programs. The only way to find exit or end on the ocean is to locate the wormholes and entered it."

"It must take for only 3 minutes."

The time given to us was too few. I don't think that I can managed to find it. In case that I cannot stand the pressure of the water then maybe I should quit this but then if I did that, my dream as a safety time traveler will be shattered. I don't want to happen that. I should do my best.

"5,4,3,2,1" The voice from above said.

We all dived simultaneously. When I became nearer to the water, I speak out the code for my face cover that will serve as my breathing device while underwater.

Al became so slow while swimming. I saw that all of us used it.

Some rapidly used their underwater speed up shoes.

Many of them appeared like a dolphin who floats up and down while searching to the whole.

I just move slowly and go into the corals.

"Maybe the hole was only hidden here. So I don't need to speed up my movement." I said to myself.

I opened my option of codes.

I saw the tracking device but then I should have the visualization of what it looks like. If I failed, then I wouldn't find it as early as I can.

I think about a big hole but when I came there being tracked by my device, it was wrong and I wasted 2 minutes.

I know right now, some of us already found it.

I stopped looking and felt that I will be eliminated.

When I saw Heinz going somewhere. I followed him while using my invisibility code. He speed up his movement that makes me swim quickly too.

I was shocked He found the hole. He entered it. So I entered next that bring us to the exit.

It was already 2 minutes and 55 seconds when Heinz appeared. Mr. Shaw that I will not make it but he was surprised that I came after Heinz.

I passed it. I came in 2 minutes and 58 seconds.

Mr. Shaw congratulates us. He announced that 555 passed it.

"The final actual exam will be the hardest. Time travelling suit and other devices will not be allowed to use. You'll be trained at planet earth for 1 week before the execution. 30 Supervisors will trained you and has already chosen each one of you to be their future staffs while watching this actual exam."

"Thank you everyone. Good luck for your second to the last exam. You can now return to our office." Mr. Shaw said.

I looked happily on the sky. I feel tired but happy for passing.

"I was 2 inches near to my dream." I said as I closed my eyes.

Our floor became a cylindrical tube and it transferred us to the Jardine's bulding at 18th floor for 10 seconds.

I went to the locker with the other girls and change my outfit.
