Hello again, folks. It is I, Rick Latan, your friendly neighborhood time traveler, and currently I am on my way to the year 10,000 BC. I travel in my time ship called The Valor and I hate life right now. So, to fill you in for the moment, time involves lots and lots of math. One of the things I have to figure out is the probability of going into limbo, which is determined by a number of factors. Any, to be safe, the probability MUST be below 5%, or I'll be screwed. Well, this time, it turns out there is a 35% chance of slipping into limbo. Now, some of you think that 35 percent isn't that much, but trust me, with something as serious as eternal hell, 35% is a lot of percentages, per say. I am already in the wormhole, (yes, these can actually be used to time travel) so I can't turn back now. All I can do is wait and see.
BOOM!
S***. In case you were wondering, you fine people, that was a decent indication I have entered limbo.
"Hey, Gus!" Gus is my supercomputer that helps me with annoying calculations, "Have we entered Limbo?"
"Scanning data files now... We are currently entering limbo. Full entrance in approximately 15 minutes."
"Bloody piece of crap, " I mutter under my breath.
"I heard that, sir,"
"Ahh, whatever!" I shout. This is great, I am entering a timeless hell and my crap supercomputer is annoying as always.
15 minutes later
Fantastic. I am in limbo now, and my whole ship has shut down. EVERYTHING has shut down besides Gus. I mean come ON! Of all the things to not be shut off, it's Gus. Well, I could always abandon ship. Wait... nah, I'd have no supplies.
"MOTHER-", I start shouting.
"-I do not appreciate cussing, sir." (there will be no cussing in this story)
"BUG OFF YOU PIECE OF CRAP!" That's it. I'm abandoning this hunk of junk. I'll have a better chance to survive if I'm not annoyed to death. So, I head to the mainframe to shut Gus off when, BAM! We land in Limbo. Yay! Of course now, Gus has shut of to maintain a steady power level. What timing that was. As I open the door to head off the ship, I can't believe what I see outside.
