The time machine came to a stop behind the orphanage, still in the air. Wilbur quickly turned on the silent power saving mode, and sat back in his seat. What was he doing? Trying to save Sara? Would that really work? He had no idea of where to look for her. Well, he had an idea.

Wilbur hoped out of the time machine and started towards the front of the orphanage. He had planned it well enough to know that he wouldn't run into himself or Lewis. But he knew that Sara would be on the roof.

He made it up with out anyone finding him. As he opened the door, he saw Sara sitting on the box. Her head bent over, and her hair covering her face, and soft stifled sobs came from her. He stood there for a while debating with himself over what he wanted and what she needed. In the end, he couldn't stand to sit there and watch her cry.

He approached cautiously, still trying to figure out what to say. "Don't do what you are thinking about doing because I know what you are going to do and it isn't what you have to do. How do I know this? Oh, I'm actually from the future." No that would be the worse possible way to say something to her.

He sat down next to her, "Sara, are you okay?"

She looked up, "Maybe, what's it to you?"

He took a deep breath and decided to let fate occur, and not think this one through too much, "Listen, I know things are tough for you, but you can't just give up. There has to be another way. Now, granted, I have absolutely no idea what will happen, trust me, I tried to find out, but I know that if you go through with what you are thinking, then you have no future."

"Well, Mr. Smarty Pants, if you know so much, then what am I thinking?"

"You are thinking about suicide," Wilbur said as Sara turned to face him in disbelief. "If you want more information of how you were going to plan it, I could tell you, just to prove my point." Wilbur lay back, looking bored and trying to keep things humorous so that he could handle it. Sara looked at him skeptically, "You were going to use a car accident as your method. Sure it might hurt, but then others wouldn't think of you in a bad light. You hoped to go to the library to get a book. There would be nothing strange about that. Then you could 'accidentally' walk into traffic, and things would go as you hoped, just as long as the traffic was fast enough."

"How do you know all that? I never said anything. And I know you are not psychic because that is a load of mumbo jumbo," she sat there, puzzled. "Who are you? I mean who is the real you?"

Wilbur took a deep breath and then looked into the night sky, "Have you ever thought about what would happen to Lewis in the future, and what lies in store for him?"

"Yes, I have, often."

"Well?"

"I guess I see him with a big family. And they all live in one house, since he thinks that family is very important. He will be a famous inventor, with, I don't know, his own company?"

"Okay, what about the family? Who does he marry? What is her job? What kind of kids do they have? I'm looking for more depth," Wilbur sat up and looked at Sara, a gleam of excitement in his eyes.

"Oh, okay. He marries… Franny. That would be a good pair. She will be a music teacher or something with her beloved frogs. Have you heard them, they are really good, and they don't know a lot yet.

"I think that they would have one child. A boy, most likely. I don't think I could see Lewis with a daughter, but who knows."

"Man, I hope they don't have a girl. That wouldn't be cool, well it would, but not and…," Wilbur caught himself, "You know what I mean."

"But what has this got to do with who you are?"

"If its any credit, you have him down to a tee."

"What do you mean?"

Wilbur started to talk fast, "My dad does run his own company called Robinson Industries where they mass produce his inventions. My mom does work with her frogs, and they go around touring. We all live in one house; me, my parents, my mom's family, and my dad's family. It gets kind of hectic at times with all of us there. And you can't forget Carl. He's the robot. And I am an only child, and personally I sort of like it that way."

"Wilbur, what are you trying to say? I am completely lost."

Wilbur stood up and walked over towards the edge of the building. He couldn't decide this too fast. He shouldn't have even gone that far, but something was pushing him to go on and tell her the truth. Then, a thought occurred to him. She had no future, literally. She was gone. But what if he took her back? Would she change her mind? Or… what if she stayed with them in the future? They could cover her tracks, so that it appeared that things happened. And she would be happy, wouldn't she? She would have friends, a great education, and she would still be with people that cared about her. Mr. Robinson and Franny were good friends to her, and they would still be there in the future. It would all work out. Except for the making her believe it, and getting his parents to go through with it.

Wilbur turned back towards Sara, "This won't be easy for you to hear." She looked at him skeptically, "Try me."

"Sara, I am from the future."

"No you're not."

"Yes I am. I am Wilbur Robinson. I am son of Cornelius, or Lewis as you know him, Robinson. My dad built a time machine, and I am from thirty years from now." He looked up at her eyes; they were confused, until a new emotion took over, "Prove it then." It was a challenge. Wilbur could tell that by some small miracle, Sara believed him a little. Suddenly, there were no more questions in Wilbur's mind.

"Only if you trust me."

"I do."

"Well then," he walked over to the ledge and jumped down onto the time machine. Sara was laughing up above, still on the roof. "Are you coming?"

"Yes, captain Time Travel, I am on my way down," Sara called as she too jumped down into the time machine. They climbed into their seats, Sara still laughing. Wilbur couldn't help but to start to laugh too. She wasn't laughing at him, she was laughing that all of her wild ideas were proving to be true.

"Here we go, to the future!" and the time machine blasted towards the future.
