The Time Warp





By Daniel Pekker



Mike runs into his house yelling, “Mom, Dad, I got Time Warp, the game I was telling you about!” He doesn’t notice a man with a black coat and a shotgun standing in the corner of his front yard. Without waiting for a response from his parents, Mike inserts the game into his computer. The screen lights up and shows, “Time Warp, A Game for Time Travelers” Then the game starts. It shows a boy sitting on a chair in front of his computer playing a game. Suddenly something whizzes at the boy on the screen, misses him, and hits the computer, causing it to blow up. Sharp pieces and debris fly all over the screen.

Mike gets confused of where is the game itself. Suddenly, he hears a gunshot from behind him. Something small slightly misses him and hits the computer.

The computer blows up.

Mike yells.

A large flash, then nothing…
