The Time Traveler's
Before Them Gone's

New Jersey 1980s. 9:30 PM

The brothers were walking to a store to shelter because of the heavy rain. They wear jackets to cover their heads from the rain.

It's cold, that's how they feel. Their bodies were shivering feeling a chill seeping into their bodies.

Usually their mother will make hot chocolate when it rains like this. Now, there's no hot chocolate or warm blankets for them. All they want now is to go home, to miss home.

"Connor.." call the older brother one year from him. They were still shivering due to the cold rain.

"Are you right" said his brother was cut off.

"Already brother! I am so sure of my decision! I love my mom very much and I won't let anyone hurt her.

They won't bother us anymore, will they?" He is not sure the question will be 'yes' right by his brother.

The brother took something out of his pants pocket. The object is shaped like a clock that has the number 08 there.

The younger brother stared at the clock, he saw all the memories there. He will miss his mother but he is also very dear to his mother, forced to do this.

They put on that still wet jacket and held onto the thing and focused on the thoughts of the two. The object let out a speck of light and the light sucked them into a portal. All the visitors in the store looked out but found nothing.
