My Crazy Side Takes Over

 I think that everyone knows I'm a very ambitious person. I also like to get things done fast. Now, I know there were flaws with the time machine, but curiosity and my crazy side came over.

You know how I mentioned having two consciences that drive me crazy? Welcome to that chapter. One is named Oliver. He is the side I'm not supposed to listen to him, my rebel side. The other is named Ellie. She is my good side. Ellie is usually in control of my body.

Tonight, I think Ellie went on a break. Oliver keeps telling me to sneak out to the park. I try to go back to sleep, but Oliver pushes on. I wake up, realizing that I'm not in bed. The time is twelve o'clock at night. I'm in the park.
I tell Oliver to stop. (Here, I know I sound like a crazy person, talking to myself and all, but I'm not everyone! I'm unique, ok?) Oliver asks why. I'm slowly regaining control of myself again and slowly turning in the direction of AMU. Oliver asks why again and turns me around. He makes me pass out and I can't see anymore. I've probably started sleepwalking again so he can take control of me.

I'm fixing his ears so he doesn't hear anything about my master plan until we get there. Doesn't he know that I'm helping him? I'm getting his assignment done faster. I'm very close to their little hideout. Alrighty, open the door, down into the basement, there it is! So flashy!

Now that we're inside, I can finally change history! Flip these guys, maybe press these buttons. I want to go to the time where dinosaurs were alive! I think 70 billion years ago, was it?

Oh, I almost forgot my seatbelt. Sure, I'm a rebel, but I don't want him to get killed. Otherwise, I would die too! That wouldn't go well.

What are you doing, Oliver? I was trying to get some beauty rest for once, and you do this when I try to relax?!

What? I am trying to get Leo to the age of the dinosaurs and snap a few pictures, but I might've missed a few billion. I'm trying to change it, but I think it's jammed. Remind me to tell Leo to build a better time machine.

WHAT?! Oliver! Why would you do this? You better explain yourself!

I am a rebel. That's my explanation.

If he gets killed, you know what's going to happen, right?

So? I think Leo's smart enough to not die. I THINK. If he does die, My last words will be, "Leo, you were the best and worst person a conscience could ever live in."

Oliver. If he dies, neither Eva or Alex will finish their assignment!

That's their problem. They'll find someone else. Now, help me find out where we're going.

What do you mean it's their problem? They'll never figure out what happened to their best friend!

Well, we'll just help him stay alive, and then go to the age of dinosaurs, snap a few pictures, and come back. Where we're going wouldn't be that bad, right? Chill, Ellie. We'll figure it out.

We can't figure it out if we're dead! We can't help him, either! He has his own mind, too! We just tell him what's right or wrong, but someone decided to use their power to too much of his advantage!

Hey, I told him what was right. Going to the age of dinosaurs and snap a selfie! That should give him extra credit. You're welcome.

He's a helpless baby bird who's going to fall off the nest and die! Corner, now! I don't need you messing up his life even more.

I'm not going. It smells like Leo's armpit!

NOW!

Fine...
