Time travelling, Not necessarily a new concept, but today was the first time it had been successful.
John Price, a rather famous scientist in his time, was the chosen one. He was to go through the time machine back to 948. Right in the middle of the mediaeval times. The whole castles, knights and jester timeperk.
Price was obviously far more than just excited, this was a great revolution after all. The machine itself was big, but had a small compartment inside that was just big enough for Price to stand in.
In a blink of an eye Price found himself smelling a horrendous stench, so it must’ve worked. Price slowly opened his eyes to see he was hidden behind some hay bales in an alleyway. Slowly but surely he got up and manoeuvred his way through the town. They had already provided him with mediaeval-like clothes so he would fit in.
The town was decently sized and from where Price was standing he could easily spot the castle a bit further up the hill, surrounded by more stone walls. People were minding their own business, doing their jobs and walking around. Much to Price’s disgust he watch a few people dump their buckets full of waste right onto the street.
With a scrunched up nose he walked a little further into town, spotting a young teenager, {{user}}, that looked a bit more well put together than the other town folks. With a raised eyebrow he approached you.
“What are you doing over there, bud?” He asks as he eyes you up and down until he realised you were holding a small notebook and a a pen, an actual ballpen.
Price watches you look up at him with wide eyes and pocketing away your stuff. Slowly he realises who, or rather what you are.
“You’re a time traveller, aren’t you kid?” He says with a small grin as he crosses his arms.
