Miss Leona led me down the hall to the elevator. She gripped her leather folder close and pressed the glistening button.

We reached the second floor and I exited to the Headquarters Information room. This is where reports from spies are recieved and every person in the room knew exactly what to do, a persons life could be on the line. Miss Leona led me to the front desk, "Thank you again for your work, you are dismissed, we will debrief you shortly"

I headed to the rooming floor where I and most other agents stay.

I rushed into my room and immediately went to meet my companion, Marshmallow. He is a a snow colored rat with fur that resembled a cloud and small pink paws.

For short, I called Marshmallow "Marshie" I met him not how most people meet their friends.

The E.C. Agency was testing a possible new drug that has not been seen many places before on lab rats, I couldn't let Marshie go through with the test, and swiftly adopted him as my own.

Miss Leona was quick to find out and wasn't too fond of him but didn't make me give him up she knew that wouldn't end well.

I gave him a square of cheese and put him back in his glass box.

I threw myself onto my bed and just started to doze off when I heard a voice through the intercom,"We need you down here ASAP."

"For the-" Before I could finish Miss Leona was shouting, "Down here, Now!"

I reported down as fast as I could. I didn't expect to see one of the head agents.

"Agent Jenkins, we need to brief you on Protocol 52."

Protocol 52? I hadn't heard any word of this around headquarters before but I wasnt about to interrupt a head agent. They continued, "We have learned of an artifact that could be vital to the country's existence, we must recover it immediately."

Miss Leona was staring at me intently now making sure I processed every word. Why were the lights in the rooms so bright? "I am going to send you alone to recover it, the hydrolyzing belometer is needed to start the advancement of building."

I shuffled a little. To build what I'm not sure, but it must be vital if the country could be on the line.

A head agent trusts me to do this. I'm trained for this.

"There's just one more thing, you'll be using a apparatus conveying the past and future to retrieve the artifact." I looked to Miss Leona for translation.

"A time machine," she said confidently.
