"Reed? Can you come out of the lab for a second?" Susan Storm Richards, otherwise called the Invisible Woman called outside of the threshold to the mechanics lab.
"Reed? There is something wrong with the television's reception, could you please come out for a second and fix it?"
Sue quickly became concerned.
"This is not like Reed. He responds to my every call..." She mumbled to herself.
Sue entered the mechanics lab, her eyes darting around the room looking for Reed and Mary.
"Reed? Mary? Where are you? Are you OK?"
Suddenly, something caught Sue's eyes. Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted the apparatus still slightly sparking, with tiny wisps of smoke rising up. Immediately, she got an idea of what happened to the two most brilliant members of the Fantastic Five.
"BEN! JOHNNY! COME TO THE MECHANICS LAB NOW!" Sue screamed over the intercom.
In less than a minute, Benjamin Grimm, better known as the Thing, and Johnny Storm, also called the Human Torch made their entrance into the mechanics lab.
"What is it Sis? Whoa! What happened?" Johnny ejected.
Seeing the sparks coming out from the controls for the contraption, Ben quickly responded.
"I betta grab an extinguisher quick, bee-fore those sparks start a fire."
Ben thundered onward towards a wall, where a fire extinguisher was hanging, and gently picked it up. Carefully, he put out the sparks emitting from the machine.
"As you two can obviously see, Reed and Mary have disappeared. I have very strong feelings that this machine very much has something to do with their disappearance."
When Sue said that, the two men in the room could do nothing but gape at the device.
"Th...th...that must be that time machine Reed was talking about. He and Mary are really the only ones who know how to operate it!" Johnny gasped.
"I know. It is not going to be easy boys, and Reed will not like this, but we are going to have to play around with this machine's controls if we are to save them." Sue said in response to what Johnny let out.
While that conversation took place between Sue and Johnny, Ben stared at the contraption in both wonderment and confusion.
"Geez... well looks like ya guys will have to work thiz thang without me..." Ben said in reluctance as he slowly tried to creep out of the lab, only to walk into an invisible force field Sue had set up in time.
"Uh, uh, uh. You are going to help us too Ben. Just so you know, Johnny and I are just as, or even more confused about the time machine like you are." Sue said in a firm tone.
Ben sighed, as he came back to where Sue and Johnny were standing in front of the space/time apparatus.
