Paul Ginuous

Biography

Paul Ginuous (Born April 18, 1998) is a 14 year old boy in the eighth grade. He and his best friend, Bazzil Kuckoo, are two of the strangest children in their grade, always pulling pranks and making jokes. Paul frequently risked his otherwise good grades joke around with Bazzil. He is one of the three children who went to the year 2698 and got caught up in the middle of an alien attack.

The Alien Emerald

During their graduation trip to the Plymouth Museum of Science and History, Paul and Bazzil force class nerd Melissa Kern to "break some rules" by breaking into the Timeslip Netexhibit, but they take it too far when they accidentally activate the Timeslip Net and get sent to the year 2698.

Paul discovered that aliens called Ashirmans had tricked humans into trusting them and turned against them, destroying nearly half of the existing human race. While Bazzil and Melissa escaped the Ashirmans, Paul was captured by Gosham, one of the Ashirmans in charge.

Paul was taken to Kylask, the Ashirman mothership, where he was tortured and imprisoned. The Ashirmans believed that Paul had some connection to Bill Trundle, who was expected to come to the future instead of the children. Once the Ashirmans were convinced that Paul was not working with Trundle, they locked him in a cell with Golar, an Ashirman scientist who plotted against Oncar with Trundle in the past, hoping that Paul might give away some important information to him.

Bazzil helped Paul escape from Kylask. They fled to an underground vault and weapon station on Earth, where they met up with Melissa. Paul, Bazzil, and Melissa stole the Ashirman Emerald from the underground vault, killing the alien juggernaut Heekem in the process.

They returned to Kylask, now with the most powerful stone in the world, to confront Oncar. Oncar, however, was still too powerful for Paul, and the children had to run away. They borded the last Superflight on Kylask and got away from Oncar, but the Ashirman Emperor used the energy from the Ashirman Emerald to teleport himself to Paul. Paul fought him off with the Emerald on top of the Superflight ship while Melissa piloted it to Golar's shack.

After Oncar was killed, Trundle pulled the three kids back to the year 2012. Paul suffered several painful injuries, but nothing life-threatening. He did not get to keep the Ashirman Emerald; the FBI confiscated it and pretended that it was a diamond uncovered in an Egyptian dig site called "The Diamond of Mekh".
