Time Travel?
If someone told you they knew how to time travel would you believe them?
What if someone told you they heard a fish talk to them, would you believe them?
What would you do if a fish started talking to you? Would you run away or listen?
Now what if someone told you that they time traveled and saw a past version of you. Would you want to go back in time too?
Okay so this story begins with meeting a guy that told me the craziest stories I have ever heard. Which peaked my interest, I kept wanting to hear more. I am always searching to learn the secrets of the world. So when someone told me they knew how to time travel I was immediately intrigued.
My friend tells me that they went back in time and I was there. I was different I had long black hair, bright green eyes, and a long black outfit with a small cape. And guess what? I was going through portals.
Apparently we were on a remote island somewhere and the people there kept calling me experiment 987. There was also a lady there with an accent that had a book that she claimed was mine.
So my friend is explaining this all to me And then my phone rings and guess who it is? The lady with the accent telling me she had a book that was mine.
So my friend tells me after they came back that people from that time such as the lady with the accent were following him. To the point that he felt like he needed to go back again. That he almost died. Telling me that he is seeing the initials of my name everywhere. That people are following him.
Apparently he goes back and sends me weird symbols that he keeps seeing. Also sends me a picture of a bunch of computers that have crashed calling me experiment 987. Then proceeds to send me a Brooklyn address to go to in 14 minutes and someone will pick me up.
At this point I am using my realistic side of my brain instead of my dream state. Going to a random address to be picked up by someone I did not know? I was not ready to go missing as much as the idea of time travel did appeal to me.
After talking to a few of my friends about this situation, they brought me back down to reality. Reality was that my time traveling friend is most likely schizophrenic. Which bring me up to my debate on if what people witness with schizophrenia is actually there? Just the mass population can not see the same things. Was my friend trapped in an episode dreaming or were they actually back in time?
