[The camera flicks on and we see a nervous boy, eyes wide - bewildered - and mouth open in a look of surprise as he tentatively eyes the camera. He has a black eye and there is blood on his hair, though he hasn’t the faintest clue as to how it got there. The camera shakes in his hands, the picture remaining unfocused. It appears as if Aaron is in a trance, staring at the screen in shock. When he finally speaks, his voice is soft, almost a whisper, and has a thick southern lilt to it.]
I l-lost the time again... [And here his gaze shifts downward in embarrassment and his lips tighten into a worried frown.]
[After a moment, he looks up again and this time his gaze is a bit more focused and his tone a bit stronger.] I haven’t ever been to a p-place like this before. It’s... It’s like one o’ them- one o’ them science f-fiction movies. [He tries to smile and there’s a loud sound as he taps on the Forge pointedly.] Th-There’s even a talking device. Had one like it when I was- when I was a kid. It’s like a- like a walkie talkie. Been hearing voices from it all day.
I sure hope I got mine working. I’ve never been- never been good with this sort o’ thing. Too many buttons to figure out. [He ducks his head and blushes.] Sorry if I done something wr-wrong on it.
[There’s more loud noise as he begins adjusting the buttons on the Forge, trying to find his way around it and then the video cuts out.]
