Excerpt: Gray

Bjorn was uneasy, and Irene was worried sick, although she didn't want to say. Hours passed by, and Bjorn and Irene fell silent. Irene was praying and imagining horrible things, her worst fears unfolding, all upon poor Dr.Perrona. Bjorn was feeling guilty for not mentioning that something like this could happen. He felt personally responsible for the fact that they were almost certain of: Dr.Perrona had died in the future. Of course, Bjorn hadn't thought of anything like this happening, and yet he blamed himself for not warning anyone. The tension thickened and Bjorn and Irene were almost ready to simply collapse emotionally. A shaking, bumping sound came. A slight thump. A hissing, and the doors of the time machine opened, revealing a tired, frightened, and unkempt Dr.Perrona.
