“Pull my

Today I went to
my card game thing and also went shopping with my parents for
clothing for my brother's wedding. Anyway onto the flash fiction!
The Time
Wizard
A man told
people that he was a wizard and that by stepping into his magic room
that they would travel into the future. People paid the man and
entered his magic black room where all the lights were off and
speakers played a relaxing tune, and lo and behold as advertised they
arrived two hours ahead in the future.
The man enjoyed
his profits. Really there was nothing special about his room except
for the special effect that the lack of light and the tune made two
hours feel like five minutes. But he felt content selling it as magic
nonetheless.
One day an
actual wizard came along and went into the room. The man didn't know
as the wizard wore normal clothes. He experienced it and came out.
The man was baffled when he saw his customer pull out a strange,
green pebble.
“It should be
glowing if you used any actual magic. I am not amused.” The wizard
promptly sent the man into the future to a not-to-pleasant time where
aliens invaded and enslaved humanity. He'd bring him back in a few
weeks.
