Run on Shadow's Edge

Forensic Jorge Velez is on the heels of a series of murders but the events unfolding may have already happened. His team found intertwined events, unusual evidences, strange disappearances, time lapses, and feeling of 'deja vu'. In order for them to truly find out what is happening they literally need to run towards the shadow's edge and fell 150 meters below. -------- Did he just walk inside a top secret military program? Where is Dr. Molina? What is his purpose in inviting him? The electric noise was literally raising all the hair on his arms. There were sudden huge sparks that could literally fry and it randomly  hit the floor and the tall ceiling above. What is this place? There is something massive going on and he needed to understand what this is all about. "Impressed?" A man behind him asked. It was Dr. Molina. He removed his goggles and grabbed Jorge's arms. "I could see you are in a confused state. Come inside the briefing room." Confused is an underestimation. Jorge was literally in a state of shock. Inside the briefing room, Jorge's hand was trembling as he drank a glass of water together with his medication. He needed something to calm himself down. The voices he heard in his radio, the message from Colonel Riva, and this massive thing in front of him is just too much to process in the blink of an eye. He needed to slow down. "What's going on?" Jorge's asked as Dr. Molina pore over the result of many of his experiments. "What you see is what you get Jorge. It's the real deal. A time machine." Jorge felt his breathing stopped. He heard it loud and clear. A T-I-M-E machine.

The Promise

"Oh my God!" Martha froze upon hearing it. "Mr. DeLuca discovered time travel?" she gushed. "And your cat Penny is the first time traveler ever?"

Marcus smiled. "You could say that."

Martha laughed. "Do you even remember that night? It's quite a long time," she asked.

Marcus nodded. " I remember that night when I was 10. Honestly, I thought I was dreaming when I heard Penny's purring. So, I got up and looked for him. I went to my mother's room, but she was already asleep. Then I went to the living room and saw Penny sitting comfortably on the sofa licking her paws. I asked her where you have been? She looked at me then she went to the door of my father's lab. I carried her in my arms when I entered my father's laboratory. My father was quite emotional at that time, and he embraced us. I had no idea why. Reading this now; it made me realize my father is on to something big!"

Martha looked at Marcus. She noticed how he looked forlorn.
