I don't know if you remember her but there
is a massive character in this book called Patsy. She hasn't had a chapter in quite
some time. I feel like it's time to add her
back in. If I remember correctly, she had
just sent Esa to disrupt the timeline. It's
time that it has.

Hope you enjoy the chapter. Don't forget to crush the vote button and follow if you're new!

Nothing in Patsy's world seems to have changed in the past few years, except, Patsy herself. Her head constantly aches as she feels time being rewritten. The fabric of time crunching down into a shorter stream, diluting the future, her future has been rewritten so much.

Esa feels something too. She will only ever let Patsy know. A doctor would label her unstable or delirious. "I must be from the future Patsy! I must be!"

"How many times must I tell you? You couldn't be my sister."

"Have you seen your reflection recently? We are nearly identical!"

"Esa, you are a friend but far from in my bloodline."

"Fine, believe as you wish, I still don't understand you could ever think as such." Esa huffs and storms away, leaving her meal half-eaten on the table.

Patsy cups her face in her hands and pushes her hair back. Their waiter comes over. "Miss, is there a problem."

"As always," Patsy sighs. "I'll be paying now."

"Yes, of course." He accepts her cash and walks towards another table, a couple that she swears she has seen before. It is Madison and Clyde, the couple who had cared for her briefly as a child.

Patsy ignores them for they were never nice to her. Memories stir up from her past. Madison expected so much of her. Clyde had wanted a son. Madison wanted her to abandon her "obsession" over her journal. Clyde wouldn't let her out of the house.

She buries her feelings and walks down the street. She sees a group of friends with a holographic plate. They ask it silly questions and laugh a lot.

Holograms are beginning to speed up a lot of things. The Internet is a huge thing already. Every device is linked. Information is stored digitally. Games are being created. The progression rate tripled over the first year of the holographic plate being introduced.

It made her head spin. She tried to hold onto what she knew about the future, the past futures. Every single change creates a new future. Those living in the future are being affected the most.

Patsy takes the elevator up to her apartment in the main town once again. As Patsy recalls, the name of the town has changed 8 times since her first rewrite. Her first rewrite was her arrival.

Patsy arrived in the year 1934. She was 4 years old when she joined Greenwood Home for Girls. Everything that she learned about the future was from the journal that she had with her. After every rewrite it changes. It has never said her parents names. All it ever told her about herself was that she was born in the year 2430 and the mission that she had to change the course of history.

She was warned of what would happen after her second rewrite. She was warned about Reva and the Extraction process. She couldn't let herself go back to the future.

Patsy sits in front of her computer and scans through her emails. So many government propaganda emails are permanently stuck in her inbox. She hates them. They are always there. Patsy watches the news, endless tales of the war survivors. She has supper and retires to her bed with her journal once again.

She flips it open to the first page. The writer recalls their escape from the Extraction building and meeting an important lady. Together they sent her on her mission. It had changed.

Restore the timeline. The future is in chaos.
