I blacked out again, I woke up in my cell. I looked around at the prisoners, They all looked violent, Angry and Ready to commit a crime. I closed my eyes and whispered, "Take me back, Rewind" I opened my eyes and I was still on the hard dirty bench of my prison cell. I needed to go back, I need a solution, A quick one. I leaned back and I tried to remain calm, I'm in denial, I can't believe that ruby is gone, Again. I couldn't save her I couldn't do anything to avoid it. Everything is between my hands now I need a quick solution. I desperately wanted to go back. "Rewind!" I yelled, "Take me back!" I shouted while my tears were rushing out of my eyes.

I opened my eyes and I felt a cold breeze, As I got chills down my spine, I opened my eyes and I saw my father driving while my mother was in the passenger seat. They were humming in rhythm as the smiles and laughter filled the car. I think this is all about my desire, I go back to what I desire. "Mom, Dad" I said as I felt my tears roll down my cheeks and before I had the chance to continue, A huge truck came rushing towards us. Resulting in my lifetime injury and my parent's death.

I woke up, In my prison cell again, I think I can't die in my time travel, Or get in a coma, I just go back to the real world, and everything I do matters. I closed my eyes and I squeezed them hard as I started to uncontrollably cry, My parents died in front of my eyes, Again. I hugged my knees and I was staring at the dirty floor, Wondering how I ended up here. I desired to go back to Ruby's incident again, "Take me back!" I yelled from the bottom of my lungs.

I saw myself next to Ruby, In class, Again. This time I decided to think deeply. I leaned back and I thought, We will walk in a different path this time. Everything already occurred, I told Ruby that I'll walk her home, I convinced my grandfather and we took a different path. Everything seemed normal, My legs started to ache but I had to help Ruby and get myself out of this. Eventually, We arrived at Ruby's house, She thanked me for walking her home and I walked back home right away. I went to bed relieved, My smile was almost ripping my face, I finally succeeded. I helped Ruby and I survived. Finally.

"Chris! Get out quickly" My grandmother shouted from the living room, I woke up and I got out of the room, The Two police officers were standing at the front door, "We need to talk to you," One of them said as he approached me with handcuffs, "No! No! No!" I yelled as I started to back off. "I know you guys won't believe this, But I'm stuck in a time loop!" I continued yelling, "What are you talking about" My grandfather asked. "I know you are arresting me for Ruby Walker's murder, It keeps repeating over and over again!" I looked at the officers as I started feeling my chest getting heavy, I tried catching my breath "Please help me I'm not . . . "I'll shoot him! He is resiting and he knows about the crime!" An officer interrupted me as he took his gun out of his pocket. "No! I won't die! This is a misunderstanding please, Listen to me" I yelled desperately as my grandmother started defending me. "I have proof that I'm in a time loop!" I yelled as my face started turning bloody red from crying, And before I could say anything, The police officer shot me.

I opened my eyes and I was in my prison cell, Again, This is getting out of hand. I stood up and I punched the wall with my full strength, I fell down due to my weak legs and I cried harder and harder, I could feel my nose getting blocked and I could feel my prison shirt getting colder because of my tears. I think this is the end for me, I'll die here and there isn't any solution at all. I'm tired of this I can't keep going anymore.
