10 Progress

It had been 30 days since they started exploring. No more of Hackerman's memories returned, and they were all starting to lose hope. The jeep was on the verge of losing fuel, which meant they would have to walk, which would probably result in them dying of dehydration or hunger. Prospects were not good. Hackerman spent most of the thirty days trying to jog his memory. He tried picturing ramen, tried jogging, tried to get Ben or Jeffery to talk to him, but nothing helped. His views about any of the Leone troupe hadn't changed either. As a result of nearly losing hope, he spent most of his time sleeping in the trailer of the jeep while Ben and Jeffery drove. His dreams were not much to talk about. His sleep was mostly dreamless, once in a while he's see the lady and the circle on the ground, only to find himself waking up in cold sweat. He still hadn't decided on wether he could tell the others about this or not. It seemed important and yet it intimidated him. But as they were all on the verge of losing hope, he didn't have much choice. He told them about the whole memory, and they asked him about the circle and panel. They realised and told him that what he saw in his memory was the transportation circle, and that it must have been the broken prototype of this time. The fact that they were wearing lab coats meant that he used to work for this miyami group. Great, the memory made their relationships more hostile than before. Now they had a reason to not trust him either. But, Ben had the idea of going back to the base that they discovered so he could take a look too, to see if that brings back some memories. Jeffery agreed, and that was how they turned back and started heading towards the base to see if it brings back some of Hackerman's memories.
