"Don't worry. We will help and do whatever we can to save people." , George said , to everyone's surprise. He was a shy guy which made people to suspect his way of handling responsibilities and didn't expect much so , such promising words were not a obvious thing to hear.
Both the couple looked at George with eyes full of hope. They all gave a sad smile and moved ahead.

After walking around the empty and destroyed city , they started thinking about what to do next. Suddenly , A gust of wind which looked like a small tornado came , spinning. They were all startled.
It started taking a human-like shape. They were all watching with surprise , fear and shock. After sometime , It looked like half human and half tornado.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? How are you alive?" , The person or the wind spoke. The voice was heavy and very scary. "We are....from 21st....century and...accidentally arrived here." , Randery answered. Everyone looked at him with cold eyes. He was rooted at the spot and made a face which said 'Did...I...say....something...wrong?'.
The thing closed its eyes. As if he was trying to communicate to someone. Just then , something clicked in George's mind. Its the same person he saw in his vision! He tried remembering his name.
"Are you by any chance , Aelous?" George questioned. The person raised his eyebrows in suprise. How can this human know my name? Who is he? Is he even a human or something else , from another planet , perhaps? His mind was filled with thoughts and curiosity which seemed like never ending.
"Aah...Yes. So you know me , huh? I see...That you are different from others. Different people often face danger. Though , I don't want to say this , But I hope you survive. Even if there is no chance , But I hope you do. You..are a lot special..then you can even imagine...." saying these super complicating things , He left.

"Ehh now what was that?" , suddenly Sammy asked. "Aah I bet our bro is special. Not everyone is a bookworm like him LOL!", Fred teased.George could not describe his feelings right now. He was confused..Very very confused. Sometimes it felt like he knows the answer and sometimes he doesn't. The words that man said , those cannot vanish from his mind. They were just printed in his subconscious.
He never talked to anyone. He kept silent all night.Those words were revolving around his mind like an echo , it was driving him mad. "Different people often face dangers....You are very special...." revolved in his mind again and again.
He shook his head. 'No. I don't have time to think about all this. Am I even in the situation to timepass? No surely not. I have to figure a way out of this 23rd century as soon as possible. These people..They don't matter anymore. I have to save myself first , rather than saving those people , whom I don't even know. There is no use in playing nice and special like a hero because I'm not.' thinking this in his mind. He shut his eyes and the moment he did so , He dissolved into the sea of darkness and immediately lost his conscious.
