Rip Hunter - Time Traveler

You briefly glanced up at the trees that towered over your small form as you strolled through the forest, there was nothing was more calming than the sounds of nature.

All of a sudden a weird rumbling sound caught your attention and you returned to peer through the leaves. You gasped slightly as a strange and very large aircraft appeared out of thin air and descended towards what looked like a forest clearing just up ahead of your current position.

You cautiously moved closer but kept yourself hidden in the shadows, watching as the aircraft landed and a fairly tall englishman in a trench coat stepped out of the cargo door.

"Ahhh the beautiful Tongass Forest." The man said to himself as he looked around in awe at the beauty of nature that surrounded him.

You shifted around slightly but winced when a twig snapped loudly under your foot. The englishman turned his head in your direction, his hand moving slowly to his waist to grab what looked like some kind of gun tucked behind his large coat.

"Who's there?" He called out firmly.

"Please don't shoot!" You panicked as you stepped out from within the shadows with your hands raised in surrender.

Once he realised you weren't a threat he relaxed and stuffed his gun away before sliding his hands into his pockets. "Apologies, I'm Rip Hunter."

"Uh, hello Rip I'm Y/N. Say... um what is that?" You introduced yourself before gesturing to the large aircraft.

"Oh uh that?" Rip chuckled nervously, you had seen it so he might as well just tell you. "It's a time ship."

"A what?" You blinked a couple of times thinking you misheard him or something.

"A time ship, called the Waverider. It travels through time." Rip explained gently, only clarifying you that you hadn't heard him wrong.

"So you're a time traveler?" You asked.

Rip nodded as he began to head away from the ship. You looked to him before looking back at the Waverider as it suddenly vanished.

"Wait where did it go?!" You exclaimed in surprise, running up to join Rip.

"Ever heard of cloaking?" He said in a slightly bored tone. You just nodded, of course you had! What time period did he think he was in?

"So can I ask what you're doing in 2020? I mean, it's not the most exciting time if you ask me." You said.

"I didn't ask and to answer your question, this year has something I need. I'm on an important mission to restore the timeline." Rip replied as he looked at you.

Despite it all sounding crazy you wanted to help but was unsure whether to say anything to the Englishman. Rip seemed to catch on with what your were thinking because his expression changed.

"No no, I don't need any help thank you very much." He quickly muttered.

"Alright, chill." You said raising your hands in the air. "Wasn't sure I could be of any help anyway."

"Surely not. I'm in search of a shiny green stone-"

"Wait Kryptonite?" You cut him off.

He gave you a look to question whether you were crazy and shook his head. "No! Chrome Diopside. It's apparently been as popular since the 20th century." He explained more calmly.

"Oh stick with me Rip, I know plenty of places with that stone." You grinned. "I could help you if you want it." You added teasingly.

He seemed to sigh in defeat with a small unconvinced nod before allowing you to lead the both of you out of the forest. It was a 10 minute train ride to the city.

You smirked gently, you and Rip had a fun journey ahead of you.
