Chapter 9: Going Home
The group was looking for a library. They needed to find a book to take them back to the present, and they figured what better way to do so than to find a book predicting the future. They split up and started looking through the different sections of the library. After spending a few hours looking they met up at the front.
"We have to find some way to get back. Who knows how long we have been gone in the present, maybe weeks! Our parents probably have the police out looking for us by now!" Salali voiced.
"She's right. We need to get home soon. Let's find another library to search. This is after all, New York."
Finding another a few blocks down, they started to enter when Becca's phone began to ring incessantly.
"I thought these weren't supposed to work in the past!" She exclaimed.
"They're not. You'd better turn that thing off before someone hears it!"Iris warned.
" I can't." Becca was about to say. She was interrupted by the others phones. They were all ringing like mad! Hurrying to an alleyway they scrambled to shut them off. It would not work. They even tried turning off the phones. Even on the off position they were still ringing! Suddenly, they felt themselves fading away.

Getting up off the ground they looked around. They were all in the part of the library they were when they were in the present. The only difference was, Iris wasn't there, again.
T groaned. "Not again."
"Come on. We need to get home and let our parents know we are okay. It's Saturday, we left on Thursday. Do you know what that means? We have been missing for two and a half days!" Salali stated.
"And then we try to find Iris. Right?" T asked.
"Sure!"
~=+=~
Monday arrived and there was still no sign of Iris. The teacher did not even call her name during attendance!
"Mr. Arven, you are forgetting Iris Handan."
"Iris Handan." He said looking down the list. "There is no record of an Iris Handan. Are you sure you have the name correct?"
"Yes,sir. She is my best friend." T responded.
"Okay,everyone. We have a test tomorrow on the Titanic. Please review it carefully. You need to remember who it was that saved the Titanic from a near collision with an ice burg. Class dismissed."
