Wylock appeared on the ground, breathing heavily.

Roger knelt down next to him. "You ran into Leo, didn't you?"

Wylock nodded, cringing.

Roger ran into the next room and returned with a small glowing blue box. He placed it on Wylock's chest, and activated it. The machine hummed quietly, then stopped. Roger moved it out of the way and inspected Wylock's wound. It was completely healed.

"What do we do now?" Roger asked, slumping back against the wall.

"We need to start over. The timeline is still looping randomly. We must tread carefully now." Wylock warned.

"And we need some way to prevent Leo from tracking our Time Jumpers whenever we bounce about."

"Right. Him. I'm just wondering Wylock. How are we--"

"Stop talking Roger."

"What's the matter? I just wanted to--"

"Shh! Look!" Wylock whisper-shouted, pointing at a pencil that had just rolled off a nearby counter.

Roger frowned. The pencil floated up to the ceiling.

"Physics is--"

"I know." Wylock frowned, sadly. "Do it. We'll have to try again."

Roger pulled a gun out of his pocket. "It's reoccurring."

He shot Wylock. Then himself.

Once again their mistake had caught up with them.

Mr. Wylock frowned. Something was off about this whole thing. John Wylock turned around, lifting his protective goggles to get a better look at the man behind him.
"I didn't think you'd have the guts to show up." Wylock said, shaking his head.
"You knew I would, though. Didn't you Doc. You've been to the future." the figure growled.
"The future." Wylcok mumbled. "An awful thing the future. But it can be changed."
"By who?"
"Who else? Me. I've got to fix all of this. It's my fault the future is as it is now! I should never have brought Roger into all of this."
"Roger? ROGER!"
"Calm down. I'll fix it."
"There's no fixing what you've done. You messed with time, now it's coming back around for you."
"I didn't mean to disrupt the time line!"
The figure lifted a concealed weapon from his coat and pointed it at the professor. He pulled the trigger. Wylock sunk to the ground.
"Only a coward would shoot a man in the back," Wylock mumbled. Then, with a grunt, he twisted a dial on the Time Jumpers.
He vanished into time.

Editing

Heroes in Odd Places has moved into the Final Stages called Editing.

COMING THIS NOVEMBER:
Are you ready to follow the Bounty Hunters on a perilous quest full of apples, witches, magic, craziness, books, dragons, goblins, trolls, castles, kingdoms, kings, guards, liars, balloons, cannons, villains, romance, jokes, banishment, acknowledgment, and more?

If not, WhAt HaVe YoU bEeN dOiNg InStEaD!? Stop dilly-dallying. Prep yourself. As long as you aren't ready, I'm as annoyed as you were when you read the sentence above that struggles with correct capitalization!

Izing

Author's Note: This idea was conceived with the knowledge of the realistic meanings of each word. Do not think you are smarter than me. You aren't.

IZING

There are opposites in this world. Some obvious, like Hate and Love or Good and Evil, some are less obvious.
Two of these opposites consist of MECHA and ORGA. Mecha meaning machine, and Orga meaning living.

Mechanic is someone who repairs machines.
But...
Organic is not somebody who repairs people.

Mechanical is something made of machines.
However...
Organical is not a word.

Mechanism means parts working together to make a machine.
Though...
Organism is a unit of life.

Mechanelle is not a word.
Nevertheless...
Organelle is a type of cell.

To Mechanize something means to make it mechanical.
I so...
To Organize doesn't mean to give something life.


Bonus Tangent: Despite

If you say "Despite the circumstances, it was all together ironic." it makes sense. But you can't say "Despising the circumstances, it was all together ironic."

Potatoes

What if you were a potato?

If you were a potato, I do not believe you would be a very good potato...
You see, there are many different kinds of potatoes.
Mashed
Fried
Raw
Red
Russet
White
Yellow
Purple/Blue
Fingerling
Petite
ETC....

So, If you were a potato, what kind of potato would you be?

Now that you have selected your type, think about this:

Would other people like you, if you were that kind of potato?

I'm particular to Raw potatoes. They're tasty. So if you were a potato, but you weren't the raw one, would I like you?

Probably not.

Therefore,
If you were a potato, I do not believe you would be a very good potato...

"Whatever you are, be a good one."

Book Review

DON'T BUY THIS BOOK!

This book is entirely wrong. The whole plot revolves around one stinking subject. Luckily for you, the title makes that clear from the beginning. But it's pointless! There isn't a mystery, a conflict, character development, a climax, or anything of that purpose! In fact, the cover of the book illustrates not only what it's about, but SHOWS you the ending!

The plot is a complete mess. Everything falls apart the moment you realize that the cover and title together give it all away. Whoever wrote the blasted children's book was a complete air head. They had no judgement, and lots of error. You have to be a child to fail to understand what's happening in the would-be work of literature.

By far, this is the worst literature I have ever read.
