On May 28th, 2016 a tragedy occurred. Harambe, a 17 year old gorilla was murdered for dragging a 4 year old boy around its domain. Was it the gorilla's fault he fell? No, it was not. Think this is unfair? Well I'm going to change it, make sure it doesn't happen

I walked into my room and quietly locked the door. Then I turned my necklace (which is a clock) back to 3:55 yesterday. Suddenly light shines around me and my room is gone. I'm now at the gorilla exhibit at the Cincinatti Zoo. A little four year old looks, fascinated by the gorillas. But slowly he starts to wobble.
Quickly I jump in front of him. He crashes into me and I fall into the cage. A huge gorilla sits in front of me. I know immedeatly it's Harambe. Poor, innocent, Harambe. Then I grab a large banana and throw it across the room. He chases after it as I yell for help. Quickly the workers get me out and Harambe is safe. "Happy late 17th birthday." I say, then turn back my necklace.
