Escaping Time

This story doesn't start at the beginning. Mostly because somewhere along the lines, time became blurred. The past has been altered so many times, I can't tell you where we really began. So let's just start. Somewhere along the path...

Mikki is just your average teenager. Her life consists of sleeping, homework, food, Netflix, and more sleeping. That's kind of just how high school goes. But when a mysterious man throws her back in time twenty four hours, it's up to her with the help of an old friend to live her life to the fullest. At the end of those twenty four hours, she'll die. There's no stopping it or way to prevent it. So, how will Mikki spend the last twenty four hours of her life. Surely not with Netflix. And when her twenty four hours is up, she doesn't die. Instead she's taken to a secret compound by her shooter and given the opportunity to time travel.

Come on!" I say grabbing Cam's hand. We run through the empty streets of Rio until we finally make it to the bustling crowds gathered on a single street. There's music, dancing, food, instruments, balloons, children, adults, the elderly. Everyone is out celebrating. We jump in and begin dancing with everyone. The live music makes it easy to sway your hips and dance to. For a few short minutes, I'm able to forget that I'm dying and I get to just enjoy my life. I feel a few wet drops hit my shoulder and before I know it, it begins to pour. The streets clear out and only a few people are left in the streets. Cam and I begin to laugh. I hand a random person my camera and ask them to take a picture. Then, we quickly run back to the car. We're completely soaked. "I was not expecting that." I say to Cam. "Me neither, but you gotta admit. It was pretty fun." He says. "Next stop Bora Bora." I say to Cam.
