As the Boukengers were headed to Makino's workshop, they felt the building trembling beneath their feet. It wasn't heavy, but still enough to draw their attention.
"What's going on?" Natsuki wondered.
"It's like there's a train passing by here." Souta said.
"Since when does a train pass here?" Eiji wondered.
"It doesn't." Sakura replied, "The only heavy vehicles that..."
She fell silent at the thought.
"What is it, Sakura?" Souta asked her.
"I was about to say it could be our Bouken-vehicles." she answered.
"But that's impossible." Masumi said, "We didn't call for it."
"You haven't, and you haven't... yet." Verne replied.
"Okay, what's going on?" Eiji was losing his patience.
"It's probably something else." Satoru spoke, "But just in case, let's ask Makino-sensei when we see him."
When they arrived at Makino's workshop, said person was surprised to see them.
"You're here?" he questioned, "But then who called the Bouken-vehicles?"
"All questions will be answered in due time." Verne replied, "Meanwhile, I want you to take a look at this."
Verne showed Makino the time machine. Looking upon it, Makino didn't see what's so special about it: "What is it?"
"You ever read 'The Time Machine'? This is it." Verne replied, matter-of-factly.
"Really?" Makino suddenly turned more excited, "I never thought we'd find one of those."
"Oh..." Satoru suddenly understood, "Now I see what you're up to."
"You think you can copy this and have it fit five of us?" Verne asked.
"Well... I never worked on a time machine before..." Makino replied.
"You mean you can't?" this surprised Souta.
"I didn't say I can't." Makino replied, "I just said I've never done it before, so this may take some time."
"Take all you need." Verne told him.
"All he needs?" Sakura asked him.
Before anyone could answer, Mr. Voice sounded over their Accellulars: "Everyone, return to the common room."
"What is it, Mr. Voice?" Sakura asked him.
"I got something you all need to look at." Mr. Voice answered.
"Does it have something to do with why you left all the sudden?" Masumi asked.
"Yes." Mr. Voice replied, after which the connection ended.
"That was brief." Souta remarked, "Wonder what he wants to show us."
