EXCERPT:
The
sound of metal in the time machine groaned as Angelie Thompson turned it to the
left with her ratchet.
“All
done,” she murmured to herself.
Standing
up, she typed in the places and years in the time machine remote control to
test it. The six foot black octagon shaped time machine lit up and opened its
doors. Angelie smiled and said to herself, “Someday, I’ll use it again.”
Then
she headed to the table where her “Best in Science” award and her twelfth-grade
last-semester report card was to study her notes.
Time Machine Notes:
1. Make sure the red wires
are connected to the blue wires.
2. Buttons for the dates
and places in the time machine remote control must be connected to the time
machine so it can transport in the correct time.
3. Time machine remote
control must have batteries.
4. No injury
Angelie
reviewed the notes and stretched her arm to ease the muscle cramps there.
“Well, everything seems fine.”
As
she looked back at the time machine, she heard a knock and turned to the door.
John
Salvador, her boyfriend, stood before her and he held up a steaming cup towards
her. “Honey, here’s your cappuccino to keep you functional.” He kissed her on
the lips.
She
replied, “Thanks, honey,” as she took the drink and sat.
He
grabbed a chair and sat next to her then glanced at her time machine notes.
“Did you finally finish your work?”
Angelie
gulped, and then replied, “I think so. All the wires seem to be in place and
transportation to the dates and places are working properly.”
He
looked at the notes then stood up, walking toward the time machine. With a look
of seriousness, he said, “I guess you’re ready.” He glanced over his shoulder
to smile back at her. “Do you want to catch a movie to relax for a while? Buzz
is the 2015 movie of the year.”
Angelie
shook her head in response. “I don’t think so. Do you want to try it now?” With
a pause, she added, “Do you think it’ll work?”
He
walked over to the time machine and stood beside her.
She
asked, “So, do you want to go to the year 3050 to see what the future looks
like?”
He
grinned. “Definitely.”
Angelie
typed “3050” under the “year” in the time machine remote control and the door
opened.
John’s
eyes widened. “Wow.”
They
entered the time machine nervously, stood still and held the handle on the
side. The machine cast a white smoke inside, blinding them temporarily, a
signal that it had transported them to the year 3050.
Inside,
the time machine, they remained nervous as they did not know what lay ahead of
them. After ten minutes, the time machine’s automatic slide door opened behind
a tree, allowing them to see cars that could fly. The people were dressed in
odd suits, there were also robots, robotic animals talking to each other and no
pollution in the air. The water was crystal-clear, the roads made of metal, and
buildings built with glass.
