the elevator separately and do the opposite of each thing and altogether we would do the opposite and return to Earth."

  Matt then repeated what happen in the elevator, "We starting on deck 9, pressed the button for deck 15, which is 5 decks up, on the Ocean Galaxy, without deck 13. As we got close to deck 15, a blue light filled the room, then we were on Sea Explorer, with deck 13, and the elevator went 2 decks down to deck 13."

  Kim said, "So to return to Earth, we do the opposite. Start on deck 17, press button for deck 12, which is 5 decks down, on the Sea Explorer, with deck 13. Then the blue light will fill the room as the elevator is approaching deck 12 then we'll be on the Ocean Galaxy, without deck 13. And the elevator will go up 2 decks, which is deck 15 and we'll be on Earth.

  As the overlap time nears, they all walk to the elevator. Matt, Kim, and Stanly enter.

  Matt looked at the buttons to press 17 and said, "This isn't going to work. There is no deck 17."

  Carrie said, "This elevator doesn't go there. The back elevator goes to deck 17."

  All five of them go to deck 15 and walk pass the large swimming pool to the corridor with the back elevator. They all enter and go to deck 17. Carrie and Shan leave the elevator. It's less than one minute to the overlap. Just then the security guy walks into the corridor.

  He sees, Matt and Kim in the elevator and shouts, "I want to talk to you two."

  He starts walking toward the elevator doors. Carrie and Shan stand, outside the door, blocking his way. The security guy starts pushing on them to get to Kim and Matt. They push him back. He falls toward the corridor wall. He regains control of the fall and starts towards Shan and Carrie.

  Kim shouts, "Get in here."

  Shan and Carrie are pulled in by Matt and Kim. Kim presses the 12 button. The doors close, leaving the security guy in the corridor. The elevator goes down. As it approaches Deck 12 the blue light appears. The elevator stops and the doors remain closed. The elevator goes up. The doors open. They are on deck 15 of the Ocean Galaxy.

  The group walks down the corridor and onto the top deck. The smaller swimming pool is outside the corridor doors.

  Later that evening the group was on deck 15. Matt, Carrie, Stanly and Shan were in one group talking with each other. A few feet away Kim was talking with the lady in the brown hat. The lady was talking about ship disasters.

  The lady, "The Titanic was one of the worse ever."

  She pulled out a photograph from her coat pocket. And held it so Kim could see it.

  Kim, listening to the lady, at first did not notice the photograph.

  Lady, "I always keep this picture to show to people. That's my granddaughter with me. We were on the Titanic that night. She went down with the ship."

  Kim looked at the photograph, the lady was in it, and beside her was the little girl.

  Kim didn't know what to say so she turned toward Mat and said, "Matt. Could you come over here."

  Matt turned around, and while walking toward Kim, said, "What is it?"

  Kim turned toward the lady. The lady, wearing a brown hat, was gone.

  Kim said to Matt, "Never mind."
