In both novels Kindred and Aura as a reader we see that people are placed into the story to save other people. In Kindred Dana goes back in time to save Rufus's life, or as she tells us to save his life. The old lady in Aura uses Felipe to bring back her husband and seems to bring a child to her. For them to not have this opportunity to go back and fix their past then the story cannot go on. We as the reader bring Aura to life.
In Butler's novel Dana needs to go back in time and make sure what is suppose to happen occurs. If this does not happen then she is not born. The movie we are watching is very similar to this novel. The actions that happen effect what is going on in the future or present life. just like in every or many situtations in life what you do in your past will effect your future.
I feel these novels are showing somewhat of a lesson to the reader in that we should see how our actions effect everyday life. In the end of the novel of Aura Conseulo says, "She'll come back, Felipe. We'll bring her back together." To bring back Aura together is for Felipe to stay with the old woman. This is an action that the characters have to choose what they want to do. This will effect their lives til someone changes what occurs.
People in everyday life need to make the choices that will effect their future or events that will lead up to what happens for the rest of their lives. Just like the characters in the novels if they don't do what is suppose to happen it can mean they aren't born or that someone doesn't exsit.
