The Missing Pages of Time

Chapter 5

³Where in the world are we?!´ exclaimed Mitch.

Hans gave a cheerful grin; ³Take a guess´ he said.

As the limo¶s wheels came to a stop, Miss Bubbly ¶s heart was racing. ³What will we have to do next?´ she uttered to herself.

Hans got out and opened the door for Miss Bubbly and Mitch.

Hans gestured for them to follow him, ³Right this way, please´.

Stepping out of the car, the sound of loud music and the smell of fresh food filled the air. Neon signs illuminated the streets to create a beautiful scene. All around them were thousands of people walking with purpose across the streets.

³This is amazing!´ shouted Mitch.

³Welcome to Hong Kong everyone! One of the busiest and most thrilling cities in the world!´ Hans stated. Miss Bubbly was in wonderment; she had always wanted to go to Hong Kong, and now she was actually there, in what seemed to be the present. ³Okay guys, remember, you guys have to find the missing page. Tony Blair, the head of the British government will be at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre«´ Hans interrupted her daydreaming: ³Alright, to find the missing page, we need to find the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. This is the day of the Hong Kong handover from British to Chinese rule. Tony Blair, the British Prime Minister, will be here. You must find the page before the stroke of midnight, or else the page will be lost!´

Hans grabbed into his pouch and pulled out a pocket watch; 11:05pm, it read.

³Quick! We have less than an hour to find the page, we need to get a move on!´ exclaimed Hans. Not knowing where to go, Miss Bubbly looked at Mitch with a concerned look ± to her surprise, Mitch was not beside her, but was staring at a street map on the other side of the road.
