Time Travel
I close the door behind me, then slowly turn the dial to Dec 22, 2030, and pull the lever down. I stand there for a few seconds and nothing happens. It must be a mistake, I thought to myself my calculations were right. I try it again turn the dial to Dec 22, 2030, and pull the lever down, but still nothing. I step outside the machine and examine it, oh! its not plugged in. There its pulled in, now its time to go. I step back inside and reset the dial and pull the lever.
Finally, the lights go dim and then a massive force makes me stumble a bit. I look over at the calendar, it was flashing Dec 22, 2030. Yes! I did it after all this time I've finally time traveled. I stepped out of the time machine into 2030. It was exciting, there were so many new things. The only thing 2030 didn't have was flying cars, but maybe it's for the best. I looked around to see if anyone might be watching me. I was all clear, I pushed the shrink button and the time machine folded into a necklace, I picked it up and put it around my neck. All the lights and colors were amazing, the future really like glowing neon type things. I looked up to see a sign, Square drive.
Great! at least the streets didn't change. I walked into the mall, and looked for an outfit to wear. If I was going to be in the future I need to dress like I was from here. @21 I said, Why not? I walked inside and a voice said may I help you? I turned around to see a robot. May I help you the robot said again. Um, No I'm fine. If you need any help press one of the assistance buttons posted around the store, Have a nice day. Um thanks I said. Wow! things have really changed. I walked over to a sign that said clothing try on. I opened a door and there was a mirror and a computer. What would you like to try on?
I looked around the room, Um.... who's there I said. What would you like to try on? Oh it's the computer. Um..... anything I guess. I looked in the mirror and suddenly I had on jeans and a flashing sweater. It was amazing, finally I could shop without having to keep putting on and taking off clothes. The future is amazing.
I am looking for a bit of a longer submission here Jada. Take the story further next time.
