Howard just smiled at me. “Honestly, you’ll see. Once each component stabilizes, a portal will be created on the focal point, and my equipment can take some readings. I’m hoping we will get a glimpse of the world through the portal, but even if I can only open it for a second, the data we obtain will be invaluable. Ready? Let’s open a portal.”
“Wait. What?” I raised my hand. “Are there safety precautions in place?”
My whole body went rigid as Howard reached out and pressed enter on the keyboard.
Time seemed to slow as the whirring noises increased and my ears started to ring. Pressure built up around us, and I could hear nothing but the whirring. The hairs started to stand on the back of my neck. The pressure in my ears continued to increase, and I reached my hands up over them. Pain started to radiate behind my eyes and I turned to Howard. His hands were over his ears, but his eyes sparkled as he watched the equipment. He mouthed something I couldn’t make out, giving me an eager nod.
The sound and pressure around us seemed to build further, and I cringed as my whole body started to tingle. I opened my mouth to say something, but light started to flicker around the room drawing my gaze to the stands circled around what Howard had called the focal point. My eyes widened when a small, bright ball appeared in between the equipment with swirls of different colors coming off it like a rainbow. Tendrils of light started to slowly spread from the ball as it grew in size.
“Howard!” I shouted. “Is this meant to happen?” I couldn’t tear my gaze away from the dancing display.
“What?” I barely heard his muffled reply. I turned to see his mouth move, but the sound was muted. He grinned at the sphere, and I noticed it started to fade. I almost cried out when the pressure on my ears increased further until a loud crack rent the air. I jolted, my ears ringing and popping when sound came back to me. It sounded like a thousand flies buzzing around the whole room. My hair whipped around my face as a fierce wind tore through the room, picking up speed. I could hear crashes as objects flew backward, away from what I assumed was the portal Howard had been trying to create, and the wind whipped them around the room.
“Howard!” I shouted again and tried to reach for him to make sure he was okay. With the flashing lights, I could barely see, as the now very large ball of light at the center of the equipment turned bright white. A large shadow caught my attention at its center where the sphere of light still grew, and spots appeared in my vision. I blinked, trying to clear the burned images on my retina as the image of another world appeared in front of me.
