Time Travel Anomaly

By Saurabh Mishra

Once, three boys embarked on a trip to Switzerland, arriving in the old town of Geneva on July 30, 2022. Geneva, a quaint place with old-style houses, nestled near a lake, captivated the trio—Vicky, Rohan, and Vihaan—who had taken a flight from Delhi to Switzerland.

Upon reaching the airport, they noticed people descending from an airstair despite no visible plane. Perplexed by the situation at 2:00 am, they felt the chill in their frozen legs. After 15 minutes of contemplation, they decided to inquire but found only workers and management around. As the time for their flight approached, they feared the unknown, wondering if it involved some supernatural occurrence.

Summoning the emergency team, the management and workers were frozen in time. Exploring the situation from inside, they discovered that time had stopped. When questioned, a bystander revealed that they were from India, and the year was 2036. Panic ensued; some fell ill, while others fainted. After an hour, everyone disappeared.

A research team explained that a galaxy had inadvertently slipped into Earth, altering time and paths due to some errors. Strangely, one person remained unaffected. Days later, he returned to the airport, seeking a ticket to Tauba. The management, unaware of such a country, involved the police. The person, under tight security, disappeared again, evading capture.

Despite extensive efforts, the officers couldn’t locate him, and the three boys also vanished. Rumors circulated that the four had entered a new galaxy.

The passage concludes with a hopeful note, anticipating advancements in time and space travel, envisioning a future where such journeys become more accessible.
