Henry tapped on the wall. "It is no ordinary thing what's inside the well. Now I understand why."
"Marcus!" Martha tapped her response by calling Marcus's name.
"Who's Marcus?"
"Marcus is a dear friend of mine. He disappeared inside the cave, and so his father. They came across the same black fluid you described. I have not seen him since then."
"Then they traveled out in time. The black fluid opens up a hole where every single atom in your body gets sucked in, and one will find himself in a place so much different from the one he came before."
"And you?" Martha asked.
"The future, Martha."
"What is in the future, Henry?"
"I have to go," Henry replied.

Henry was somewhat confused. "Nurse?"
"Yes, nurse Leila. She came in and out to check on us. Aren't you in the room beside mine?"
"I don't know what you are talking about, Martha."
"Then where are you, Henry?"
