I couldn't believe this what was the white void doing here? I looked to Adam wondering if he had any ideas but he was just as shocked as I was stunned by the fact the white void was sitting right in front of us. We look at each other in complete silence in otter aw. After looking at Adam and the white void I decided I needed to speak up. "So what are we going to do about this." Adam slap himself trying to set himself back in reality. He said " Yeah we should probably do something about this." Neither of us had anything to say. What were we supposed to do? I just kind of started brain dumping and hoped something would happen.
"We should probably make sure we can go in and out of the void."
"Uh yeah good idea we should probably do that. How are we going to do that?"
"I have no idea."
"Maybe we should find something to mark our tracks like paint or something."
"Yeah probably we should also bring stuff incase we can't go back and fourth."
"O yeah we should do that."
"Yeah we should."
It was obvious we had no idea how to handle this thing but we had some sort of plan. Find paint, bring the suitcase and try to go in and out of the void. This is something I could work with. I thought of what we could need just in case we can't come back? Disguises of course we still need to hide our identity in case of Little Me. I tell Adam about my plan and we go to the local shop to buy a face mask and take the two IDs from the cashiers. We also take some paint too and head back. I felt bad about it for sure but will give it back probably and it's for a noble cause I'm sure they'll understand.
We went back to the project center and saw the time machine filled with void. We took a deep breath and both took a step in. So far so good we are in the white void now we check if we could go back. I turn around and everything is still there. We lift up our legs and try to walk back into the real world. It was a success and we could easily walk in and out of the white void.
Excited, we both walked in and painted the ground we walked on to make sure we didn't get lost. I started thinking of things we could do when we found the portal back to The Land of Time. Well first things first we have to find out how their moving time if they are moving it manually. If that's the case we should probably look at the jobs around her-.
There's no way I look to my left and I see Little Me floating in the white void. I started to walk towards her wondering what to do about it. I thought about all the questions I could ask her. What are you doing in the void? Did you know about the time machine? How do we get out of here? Question after question ran through my mind. Then I remember Little Me probably knows how they move time. If I free her we could get that answer a huge chunk of our problem would be solved. I started to reach out for her and Adam grabbed me by the arm and said "We still can't trust her, let's move on."

He's right there is a chance Little Me isn't on our side. Then what is she doing here if she was on their side why would they trap her here? If she wasn't on our side why would she even save me the first time. I was jumping to too many conclusions. There's many reasons why they would have let us go. I just kept wondering why. It wouldn't get me anywhere thinking like this. We just need to stay on task and find the exit. Try as I might, the thought of Little Me stays. It was only a short while but I don't think Little Me has actually done anything to harm me besides when I fought her and that was all on me.
We found the exit and looked out of it luckily it wasn't the high one I first came from and we could easily walk back and forth. I look at little me feeling this weird sense of guilt. It's fine we can always come back, we could always free her later. Yeah it doesn't matter one day I'll come back and figure things out. Adam walks out of the white void and calls my name. I snapped out my thoughts and just told myself one more time. It doesn't matter right now I have to stay focused. I jump out and follow Adam back into the land of time.
Back to the point: how does time move? I think the first plan of action would be looking for jobs. It's possible that everyday people are making time moves. That's a possibility it could also be the 12 it would be so much easier if I could ask Little Me. I have to stop thinking about her. I have to keep reminding myself. It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter.
It still hurts though we been together for a short time but I feel like a monster for abandoning her like this. It's no use thinking about it just focus on time and how it works. I ask Adam how he got his job as a doctor. He looked at me and said "Well I'm not exactly a doctor but they just wanted some ID and they let me assist there. I don't think it's the hospital but I doubt that moving time is hidden from the public. I think we should just go on a bus and look around and see if anything looks promising." A strange thought enter my mind when I heard that. If Adams is right, whatever they are doing is a job and if they just let him into a hospital I doubt they will be super strict on whatever job this is. I can't rely on that but if all goes well we can work on time first hand.
We find the bus and start going around town looking at all the different buildings in the area. As I looked at the hour glass one last time I just had to wonder what's inside it? It could be time itself somehow I don't know how exactly that would work plus I don't see how they would be working on it but I think the glass has something to do with it. While I kept coming and going to think after thought the hour glass went out of view.
During the trip I kept wondering about the glass. What's even in it I keep assuming its time but time still moves here so that's clearly not it. Little Me would have known about this I bet. It keeps happening again and again for some reason Little Me keeps entering my mind. I don't know how I feel about her, whether I miss her or fear her. Whatever, she was my enemy or my partner. In a weird way I feel way more conflicted by her then even time itself.
