***** Vol.5 Chap.11 The three guardians-to-be *****

As Frank and Kristin were pondering on who the next guest could be, a door began to form on one side of the wall. They were no longer amused and amazed at things appearing and disappearing any more. Calmly, they sat in their recliners waiting.

“May we come in?” Elijah asked.

“Sure, come in.”

They were anxious to find out who the next guest was.

The door opened and there was Elijah with May-Ling behind.

“May-Ling?” They both exclaimed!

“Frank? Kristin?”

Elijah smiled.

“I believe you all had met one another before.”

“Yes…How…” They both turned to Elijah with a puzzled face and asked simultaneously.

The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

Elijah held up his hand.

“Because of my age, my stamina was not as vigorous as before. I am sorry I must leave you for a little rest. Please get reacquainted with yourself. I will be back in two hours and I will try to answer your questions then.”

He turned around and sauntered out of the room. It was obvious to the three that he was extremely aged and completely worn out.

“A leather recliner please.” Frank said aloud. “May-Ling, something to drink? Oolong tea may be?”

“What other tea can I order?”

“Anything.”

“In that case, Ginseng tea please.”

In no time, the steaming tea appeared on the table.

The three sat and looked at one another, speechless.

Finally, Frank broke the silence.

“May-Ling, tell us how you come to be here. After that, we will tell you our stories also.”

By the time they traded their stories, they all realized that they had been called to come to this place.

“But why?” May-Ling asked.

“A secret mission to save the world?” Kristin responded.

“And where are we?” May-Ling was still puzzled.

“What is this place?” Kristin asked.

Now it is Frank’s turn. “I was brought here by the most amazing bubble transport?”

“Me too.” May-Ling responded.

“Tell me.” Kristin had no recollection of any bubble transport though she was in fact brought here by the giant bubble.

Frank described the bubble transport. Kristin could not believe her ears.

“The technology here is beyond anything I have seen nor even remotely heard of.” Kristin declared.

“Yeah.” May-Ling chimed in.

“Are we in a space ship?” Kristin said.

“I don’t think so. I came down the stairs into a room like this.” Frank was the logical one. “And I was awake the whole time in the bubble transport.”

They were all baffled and speechless.
