Now you were alone in your new room, which looked quite nice but still, you had to get used to it until getting to fully like it and appreciate it. After a few minutes of walking around your new temporary home, you heard your door open. It's the first girl who was ordered something by Giorno and she was with some white sheets, or were they something else? You weren't sure.

She noticed the confusion on your face and immediately rushed to you, showing what she was carrying: a beautiful typical roman dress made of high quality, soft materials that would've made any clothing comfortable to wear. She tried to gesture you to wear it and you agreed, nodding and smiling at her. You took your stuff out of the pockets and put it on the small bedside table, then you prepared yourself to change clothes, but not with her looking straight at you! You circled your fingers, trying to tell her to at least turn around, but she didn't seem to get it. So you decided to turn her yourself, a slight movement of your hands and she's already facing the opposite direction while you are proudly taking off the turtleneck.

It is a mystery how they got your measurements correctly, but the dress fitted you perfectly and also looked very nice on you.

"They have good taste" you thought, slightly smiling at yourself

After finishing with the change, you let out a honest "gratias" to the servant, who turned back to you and took your clothes, probably to wash them or at least that is what you thought. Even though you knew that your previous clothes won't be somehing you could wear anymore, understanding that they most probably will be washed in a local river. Meanwhile the girl did a small plié in front of you to show her disponibility and obedience and the left the room.

After these events, you went to your bed, layed down and decided to take the phone from the bedside table. You had nothing to do right? So why don't scroll through some pictures and listen to some low volume music, you were alone anyways so noone should bother you. No such luck, as soon as you started relaxing your door smashed open which made your gadget fall out of your hands.

"YOU'RE FROM OUR YEAR TOO!?" said, no, yelled the mysterious man

"Uhhh i'm from 2020" you answered, not even surprised anymore but just a little bit taken aback by the sudden outburst.

"Me too, oh my god this means the experiment failed once again" he now said normally, calming a bit down

"Waaiit wait wait, what the hell are you talking about and who are you and most importantly why are we in THE ROMAN EMPIRE! WHAT IS GOING ON?" you now started to yell, clearly displeased by all the events happening to you

"Oh, where are my manners? First of all my name is Jack and i'm 20 years old. We are here because the government of my country was experimenting with different portals in order to make a functioning teleport that would help us moving around the world without spending time and money on other transport and that would be able to send people to the past whenever they want or need to. They were very desperate to make it work so that they called the most important scientists and some mages just to make sure that the experiment would work. But apparently it failed twice because i've been here for a week already and you just arrived. It is weird that the "fate" decided to send you here instead of someone from the group that is working on the teleport. But fear nothing! These romans won't hurt you" he confidently told, as if this was something completely normal that always happened in daily life.

You couldn't even master a composed face, you had absolutely no words to describe your astonishment and disappointment. All you could do was...

"What the actual fuck? Why am I here and how to i get back to the future" you said, still extremely upset and angry

"This i don't know, i'm sorry. Probably as soon as they create a working teleport they will save us. Until they create it, we're stuck here" he almost whispered, already knowing that this answer won't satisfy you

Again, you were fuming and at the same time you wanted to cry. There was a possibility of never going back to your home, to your family and friends and instead you were stuck in a world where you didn't belong.

"Oh and by the way, i eavesdropped a few scientists that were aware of a possibility of this experiment ending not in a good way and they said that whoever gets transported to the "past" will end in an alternate universe. So we don't actually know if we're in the past now or if this is happening at the same time with our world since we're now in a different universe. At last, some mages predicted me ending somewhere when romans were alive so they gave me a few potions which should be able to make us understand latin and whatever we will say in our language the romans will hear it in latin. That way we will be able to communicate with them." he finished, handing you a few vials of purple-colored potion.

"I-i don't know what to say... What the fuck?... How do you know all of this?!" You suspiciously asked while taking the vials

"I'm the son of one of the founders of this experiment so i had access to a lot of things, even though most of the things i know should've been top secret, but oops" he answered rather proudly

"I see, does Giorno know about that?" you asked, not even knowing whether you wanted the answer to be positive or negative

"Of course the emperor knows it, i already told him everything and he will not harm us" Jack told you, but after the world emperor you zoned out the galaxy

"T-the what? Emperor? I saved the emperor?" You thought, not daring to speak out loud anymore. Were you now happy, were you still shocked? All of that, the emotions you were feeling couldn't be explained.

Right after Jack's words, the doors opened again revealing all the servants bringing a lot of deliciously-looking food to your room. Meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, some typical food.. everything was there and you were sure to be getting your stomach full with all those good treats. At the end of the row of servants there was Giorno, who was proudly and majestically entering the room, but... Did he frown? He didn't look happy at all after finding who you were in the room with.

"Quick, drink the potion" Jack whispered to you and so you did. You drank all the purple liquid from the vial and immediately started understanding some of the words the servants were exchanging with each other.

"What are you doing in her room?" Giorno asked while trying not to look too bothered, but with his face showing discontent

"Oh Emperor! As soon as i heard of another person coming from the future i immediately arrived with the information on what happened and with these vials" Jack immediately answered without loosing his confidence. This satisfied the emperor's curiosity so that he calmed down a bit and returned to the slighlty smirking self, getting closer to where you and Jack were.
