In the Year 2025Instead of meddling with fate like I should have, I stood still. Despite the fact that time had slowed to a crawl and I could easily dodge the bullet, I stared it down. About forty-five minutes passed before the bullet slowly began to burrow into the skin between my eyebrows. "Ouch," I thought. "That's hot." Soon after, Roger the Time-Travelling Cat pulled up on a motorized scooter. "What are you doing?" he meowed. "I won't meddle with fate," I replied. "You moron!" Roger retorted. "Do you realize how many favors I owe Humphrey the Time-Stopping Rabbit? I promised him my last Fezziwig to spare you from that bullet!" "Dont worry," I spoke as the bullet proceeded into my brain, affecting my ability to use apostrophes. "Fezziwigs are coming back this winter." And with that, I dropped dead. My
only regret is that now Roger has to pay for parking when he gets back.
