*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I never imagined this. I never EVER thought that I would be the cause of all this. Actually it was the idiot who let my dear invention out to try, but it was still my fault!!
Now because of my time machine idea everyone in the country was now stranded 2000 years into the future. Now when I say that, it doesn't sound that bad, because who wouldn't want to live 2000 years into the future? But there was a problem, the time machine was not ready. I had been working on it since I was dumped at the orphanage when I was only 10. The reason I had been sent there was not because my parents had died oh no, they were still alive and healthy.
That's not the problem now though, the problem was that they were in another world. Trapped in a parallel universe. So ever since then, I have made it my mission to rebuild the time machine that my parents once used and destroyed.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I am now 30 years old and have almost succeeded in building the time machine, except somehow the story of my invention leaked to the public, and ever since then I've had idiots at my door step asking if I could take them back in time or to the future so they could see who they were going to marry and other things like that.
Up until now they have never succeeded in getting even a glimpse of it let alone get to use it.
There was a reason I never went out. There was a reason I was always so paranoid about my invention, because if I go out for one day there will be hell to pay.
Which is exactly what happened.
The only way I knew my invention was being used was because of the tremble in the ground. It wasn't natural. That's when it happened... The world was changed completely.
Now it was my mission to fix the time machine and get everyone back to our time safe and sound.
The only problem was the side affects that people picked up in the first travel. Some small children came across to this land with small kitten like ears while others seemed to have grown some small puppy ears instead. People had come to know of them as 'hybrids', they also ended up growing tiny tails to match the ears on their heads.
The adults on the other hand are a different story, instead of growing ears and a tail like the children, they seemed to be newly crazed with the idea of building a new race to take over the world. So the hybrid children meant a great deal to them.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~1000 years later*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
1000 years, it has been 1000 years since my time machine took everyone to the future.
After 30 years of hard work going down the drain the first time,I wasn't about to let another hundred go the same way, I am now immensely please that the only side affect I seemed to have accrued is the fact that I am now immortal, so I have spent the rest of these hundred years locked away, trying to figure out how to fix the damned machine. There was a problem though, through time, the hybrid children have grown up to be wonderful, exotic creatures that everyone pays to see and pays even more to mate with.
It's a bit like Harry Potter, there are the pure bloods (the first generation of hybrids), the half-bloods (the second gen) and finally the generation we are now at. The mudbloods. These were classed as the lowest of the low and were seemingly exiled out of all social contact.
This has only made me more determined to fix this machine and put an end to all this madness. I can see what they do to this generation of hybrids, and it is not something I would ever willingly put on anyone. My new tower or home if you will, is sat on top of a hill that overlooks the entire city and I can see what is being done. These kids who didn't know any better were being punished for something they grew up with.
Now though, there is not only puppy and kitten hybrids. There is a few new breeds, there are bird hybrids. The only animal part they have are 15 feet long, feathery wings, there are fish hybrids, these kids can still live on land but their hands are webbed and covered in shiny scales, as well as the gill they have grown on their necks.
I have done everything I possibly can for these kids but nothing I try seems to work.
There is now one thing I can do.. I can send them back in time to their ancestors in 4013 and then go back to 2013 where all these problems started.
It's now not about whether I find my parents or not, it's about what I can do to save this community.
And that's exactly what I did.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~2013~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I've done it!! I've finally done it. 2013 oh how I missed your simplicity. Now as I walk along the streets, there seems to be nothing out of place. No madness going on whatsoever.
Curtesy of me, not a single person can remember the 3000 years into the future. There is not a soul insight that has any form of animalistic features, the machine has also been destroyed; and that's the way I would like to keep it from now on.
