“One fish two

Well, missed my
writers club at college meeting today and it was the first. Got the
time wrong in my head. Whoops. It was the first and I guess a bit of
an orientation so probably won't affect me too much. Gotta make sure
I get to more of the meetings though. Still such a noob at this so
I'll plenty of help with my writing and what wonderful help are other
writers.
Today's story
was fun because it wasn't one of my usual narration format stories. I
like when I get to do that.
A Day in the
Life of Len Woods the Time Traveler
7:00 AM- Len
wakes up and eats breakfast. Looks at his plans for today's heist.
8:00 AM -Len
travels back in time to ancient Egypt to steal a valuable item of his
choosing.
9:00 AM -Len is
shot to death by several officers after violently resisting arrest.
10:00 AM -Len
returns from ancient Egypt with with the item to sell on the black
market.
11:00 AM -Time
police arrive at Len's mansion with arrest warrant for his abuse of
time travel over the years. Len sees them and flees into his time
machine. He grabs his portable time machine, which only allows time
travel throughout the frame of a single day and flees.
NOON: With
their technology the officers detect Len's use of a portable device
and send some of their own in pursuit, leaving a few behind as
backup.
1:00 PM: The
backup officers die in a massive explosion.
2:00 PM:
Officers arrive from the future and steal Len's car to prevent his
escape.
3:00 PM: Len
arrives from future and attempts to get his car and realizes the
officers have taken it before getting close enough for them to
notice. Starts fleeing to a friends house.
4:00 PM:
Reaches the friends house who is also a fellow criminal, but on
parole for her own time crimes.
5:00 PM: The
time police come into the house to retrieve Len near the end of the
hour.
6:00 PM: Len's
friend apologies and says she needs any sort of reward money for
Len's capture. Len retreats to 9:00
7:00 PM: Len's
friend decides whether or not to call the time police upon seeing her
friend. Decides to call them and keep the current timeline stable
instead of canceling it and keeping her friend at her home.
8:00 PM: Len's
friend cries herself to sleep.
9:00 PM: Len
comes out a time portal from when he originally fled at 11:00. Seeing
the front part of his mansion in ruin and an unstable time effect he
pulls out a bomb from his belt, one of the many weapons he takes on
his time travel trips and throws it back in time.
10:00 PM: Len
gathers his valuables from the parts of his home that were not
destroyed in the explosion.
11:00 PM:
Officers arrive through a portal made from their own portable time
devices. Len panics as he assumed he killed them all. He flees. The
day is coming to close and he knows he can only leap forward when
the next day comes. But leaping too close to the next day would
destabilize the belt.
MIDNIGHT:
Officers close in on Len outside his home. He can't wait for the next
day to come here so he leaps back in time to find another location to
wait for the next day.
