NO...you’ve gotta be kidding me! This is terrible! No, worse than terrible, it was like terrible multiplied to the max.
I stared down at my best friend Joe as he looked helplessly back at me with his arms crossed. The frown on his face said:
A picture containing text Description automatically generatedThe funny thing was, everything about him was exactly as it had been just a few seconds earlier. Except there was one HUGE difference. And this difference was seriously major humongous. You may think I’m exaggerating, but nope, I’m not. This was a big bad oops. It was also definitely not what either of us had been expecting.
First of all, Joe shouldn’t even still be in the room. He should be back in medieval times watching knights in shining armor battle each other with cool swords and shields.
A picture containing text Description automatically generatedAnd I was supposed to be there with him. But I was more interested in seeing a real princess and a unicorn.
That had been our plan. But you know what they say, the best-laid plans can go astray. And to tell the truth, looking back at it now, this may not have been one of our better plans. As I stared down at my tiny, miniature friend, I could see we really should have thought this out a bit more.
Oops, I guess this wasn’t a time machine after all,
I shouted to Joe.
Yeah, kind of figured that out,
Joe told me. And no need to shout! I’m tiny, not deaf.
Right,
I said, looking down at him. I knew if we put our heads together, we could find a way out of this.
We were so convinced that we could get my mom’s time machine to work. We’d become obsessed with it and had spent every spare afternoon and weekend working on it. Thinking back, maybe we were a bit too anxious. But you can’t blame us! I mean, who could resist the lure of traveling back in time?
We were sure this fancy machine would work just like the ones you see in the movies. Yeah, sure, sometimes time travel in movies doesn’t work out all that great, but we were planning to be extra careful not to change any timelines. We were just going to watch history actually happening, not try to change it. After all, that’s when all the bad stuff happens. We’re two pretty smart kids. Just obviously not quite as smart as we thought. Still, this should really have worked out better!
We’d already done a test run on my sister’s pet hamster.
We’d taken Honey, the hamster, out of her cage and put her in front of the ray gun, and within seconds she had disappeared. We had no idea where she went, but 5 minutes later, she was back and trying to get into her cage on the floor in front of us. She looked scared and was desperate to get back inside her cage.
We thought the time machine worked! We just assumed that Honey was transported back in time. Maybe she was watching knights in shining armor or maybe a dinosaur or two before being transported back here when the energy from the beam wore off.
We thought this was a time machine that Mom had started to build.
A picture containing diagram Description automatically generatedWhy...because Mom always talked about how time travel would be so great for historians. They could observe the past as it really happened. People could see actual history. It all sounded so good. Then Mom stopped working on the project when she got busy with another two or three projects. I love my mom. She’s got a great brain, she is brilliant, but she does get easily distracted. So, we decided to finish this one for her. After all, Joe and I might not have three Ph.Ds and a medical degree like my mom, but we are still pretty sharp! Plus, we believe that when we put our minds together to do something, we can’t be stopped!
Truthfully, we had already pictured the news headlines...
Text Description automatically generatedYep! We were going to be super rich, even after giving my mom her fair share of the profits for starting this invention. We were going to be super famous, not only as great scientists but also as great adventurers through history! The world would love us.
We would have been able to quit school and have our own TV show. Just like those popular science shows on The Discovery Channel, where they conduct experiments, blow things up, and do stuff they love. Except this TV show would have our unique spin to it. Plus, kids would love it, cause, well...we are kids.
As well, we had even come up with an awesome title...Bella and Joe’s Awesome Inventions in Coolness.
A picture containing text Description automatically generatedWe had it all planned. It would start simply with a trip back in time. Thinking back on our idea, though, the fact that the machine didn’t have a time or date dial on it should have been a tip-off to us. Yeah, it might have been better if we’d thought about that a bit. The problem was that we were anxious and blinded by science, okay, more blinded by success and fame and fortune!
That’s why today, just a few moments ago, we decided to put our time machine to the test—the real test, where Joe and I used ourselves as lab rats. Joe would go first. I’d fire the beam at him, he would disappear for a few minutes, and then we’d reverse roles. We figured that the longer we kept the beam on somebody, the further back in time they would go.
We thought we’d start with a minor time change like we did with the hamster, just a quick burst of energy from the time laser. Once we were sure that worked, we’d focus on going back further in time. The medieval time change was what we were looking forward to most of all.
Well, that was our plan! It just turned out not to be a very good plan. I should have realized it might not be a time machine...Mom would always babble on about, Wouldn’t it be great if we could shrink things! It would make storage and transportation of goods so much easier.
I really should have
