In the name of Science cont.
originally made by Rocksauron finished by Theswweet


They had called me crazy.
They didn?t understand. They followed society?s laws, followed it's foolish regulations to stamp out the truth.
They were idiots.
But I, I am the only one in the true quest for knowledge. I am the one who will stamp out the truth, allow the truth to override laws and customs.
I will find the truth. For I have created a time Machine.
Yes? A Machine, and with it, everything may end?
Or everything may begin.

* * *

I reformed in a dark alley.
Quickly, I looked around to see if I was complete- this was a one way trip, so I hadn?t been able to test it beforehand.
I walked slowly to a dumpster, and found an old newspaper.
May 8th, 2009.
I have done it. I have traveled through time, to my elementary school days.
I couldn?t help laughing- who could? Well, maybe those regulators back in Washington might?
But I had to stop- somewhere, I had to be.
My younger self. Pure and innocent.
Yes? somewhere I must be. Unknowing of what is about to happen.
For I must find out the TRUTH.
I must see time?s defense mechanism.
And to do that, I must kill my younger self.

* * *

I had kept a wallet full of 2000?s dollar bills on me- they had reformed in the transporter too.
I needed supplies- but I had no time to WORK. I had to do this quickly- the faster the better.
So I took a wallet full of contemporary money on me, and it recreated itself in this time period too.
Politely, I thanked the Car Salesman- he expected the car back by next Friday.
It wouldn?t be.
But I couldn?t let him know that; I just took it and drove off.
I took the 2040?s pistol I had with me and placed it in the glove compartment- I was sure to bring that, because ever since the election of 2024, guns could be easily found at any hardware store.
Not so here in the past; we still had to have gun licenses and the like.
But I shrugged it off and drove- today is a Friday, so I should be alone with my dad?s.
Time for the experiment to commence.
* * *
I never liked my dad.
He and my mom were high school dropouts, after my mom got pregnant with me by him. His parents forced him to marry my mom, and so he was tied down to me. He never bothered to get divorced, nor did my mom, and so he?s just an unemployed drunk while my mom works two shifts.
Hm? now that I thought about it, they were both idiots.
But no matter- having only my dad there would make this easier.
My pistol was in my jacket pocket, hidden from view. I could hear the TV blaring; I was probably watching it.
I rang the doorbell, and heard it ring twice.
The door opened.
I fired my pistol. Twice.
My dad fell backwards. He had answered the door.
I quickly ran into the house, back into my old family room- I tried finding me. I ran throughout the house, firing anywhere I could see I may be.
Then, I remembered: I ran out the back window, to my neighbor?s house, where I?ll call the police.
But? how did I remember that? I didn?t remember that two seconds ago?
I could already hear the police siren! They were faster then I remembered? As I ran out, I fired my pistol once at my dad to make sure he was dead, and ran out.

* * *
Of course.
I remembered that memory because THAT is what happened to me now in my past.
I had already changed history, and so my mind changed to reflect this new image of history.
But I remembered both paths of history- I remembered the one with my dad involved, and I remembered the one in hiding in the Witness Protection Program.
And then I remembered my dad showing me the original Back to the Future when I was in 4th grade, beginning my blossoming into a creature of science. But that was in the old history- my dad was dead now, so a new history, a new memory had sprung up.
Now, I saw Back to the Future when I was at a school meeting in my new identity?s home Alabama.
History had changed to fit its new life. Time?s Defense Mechanism.
.The fact that I remembered both paths of history could easily be attributed to my method of time travel- I was still in my lab, in my original body, in my time machine- the time machine merely traveled my brain waves, the DNA of how my mind works, across time and space into a new time. Then, it condensed air into how my mind remembered I looked.
As such, my true body was still in that lab, unconscious in that time machine, never to awaken as my mind was in the past.
Seeing as how I thought in the past but existed in my present, I truly existed in two times. I remembered the truths of both.
However? If I?m still here, and my original body is in a time before I altered events?
Then could I have created an alternate dimension, and my original body is in the old?
This requires proper testing.
This requires the experiment to be completed.

* * *

I had been on the run for three years.
I remembered all the places the Witness Protection Program took me; it's just that it kept changing.
History kept rewriting itself in my mind, so that the place I thought I would show up was a different place, as in actuality history had changed its course so that they put me somewhere else.
Time was a crafty foe, always changing itself to prevent what may happen- but I had to defeat it. I had to best time.
Again, wrong place- I wasn?t in Arizona now. I was in Oklahoma.
I decided that I would have to wait. I had to wait until they decided to move me. Then, I would be able to know where the plane was landing.
I made sure to hide- I was on America?s most wanted list. Hm, with all the murders out there, it's strange that I would be on there. Maybe Time itself forced me to be up there, so as to save itself?
But I had no time for that- I remembered a new memory.
My mom was in a seat on an airplane across from my child self. She? looked a lot more sad then she used to?
She tld me that everything?s alright, that soon the murderer will be gone, that soon everything will be alright?
Everything will be alright when we get to Houston, Texas?
My younger self looked at my watch! April 6th, 2012?
TODAY! This? this memory was happening TODAY!
Texas? Houston wasn?t that far! I quickly stole a car from a junkyard and basically flew down to Houston, trying to remember where my house was before we even got there.
As I pulled up to what looked to be our house, some movers were moving us in. Those movers were secretly Witness Protection Program officials, though?
I quickly drove back, careful to not be spotted- I ran in the back, and hid in the dumpster.
I waited.
A few hours later, I heard footsteps. Could? could this be it?
Someone opened the trashcan, and I fired!
My mom fell back, dead.
I had no time to consider what changed- this could be my last chance! I may never fool time again!
I ran up the house, no one hearing my fire my silenced gun. I heard TV upstairs- ?Great Scot!?
? Back to the Future. I was watching Back to the Future.
Gently I walked upstairs, making sure no one heard me.
Strange? no one else was here? no guards, nothing?
Unless there was security cameras? But they couldn?t get here fast enough!
I broke down the door, and pointed the gun at my younger self.
This was the first time, in all three years, I had actually SEEN me? he just paused there, scared and frightened at the strange, scary man who had been hunting him for three years now.
But now was not the time for that! THIS is when everything ends, or everything begins!
I didn?t stop to consider all the memories that came rushing through my head- I just pulled the trigger, and fired the bullet.
It hit him dead on.
I had done it.
I have cheated Time.
As my body hit the floor, everything began to change...everything since the day i was born!...i changed too...i felt my memories flood out of me and new ones flood in i had new memories...and i looked different...and yet i still knew what i had just done...my younger selfs body was gone...i was getting dizzy...really dizzy...and i fainted.

***

"huh?...where am I?" i woke up in the street...even though i had killed myself in a room "of course,things would change to fit the new reaility...even if i cheated time...time would just reset to the point when everything went wrong...and alter it so it never happened!yes i may have cheated time in the origin--"i stopped short..."if i changed reality,then i never really existed...and thus i would have no memories of it...then why do I?"suddenly an unbearable pain swept thru my body...it only lasted a bit but i felt new emotions...new memories even stronger then before and all my old were over-powered I remembered a new name...and forgot the old,I still had the same parents but...everything...it was almost gone I was a new person and I knew i would soon have a new mind...i had cheated time...and yet i never existed,i had killed myself...yet i never lived...and I was now feeling the changes of what i had done...and then when i thought i would lose my grip on my mind...i did.

***

"cheryl!where are you?"i said "over here kathy!"my friend waved to tell me where she was."maybe its time to get back home...i'm getting bored!"i wanted to get to our house soon...we had a slumber party scheduled... and i didn't want to be late..."huh?"i had a sudden wierd thought "what is it kathy?" cheryl was a bit confused
"Oh nothing!"i said"just a wierd thought!" "ah,ok...what was it?"
"Cheryl!"
"ok..." silently i said to myself..."why would i want to shave?"

Fin

... intriguing concept of an ending. (for people who don't know, I wrote everything before "Everything began to change" after he killed himself).

I still prefer my ending of course as it was open ended, which is why I liked it- your ending made as much sense as any other one that could have existed. No harm done seeing as how I made it so that people would be able to write their own endings anyhow, but yeah... ;o
