Light blue light trickled out of the machine as I pressed the ignition. A running sound of the engine, the floor started to shake. I could feel molecules in my body start the disappear out of existence. The next thing I knew I was falling through a dark tunnel. Pitch black and forever falling until I was faced up on a solid material. Looking up I saw a dark sky filled with plumes of smoke. The sound of people screaming, babies crying, and sudden loud explosions. Still dizzy, I gazed up to see a volcano with light red molten falling down the side of the dark rock, houses are into flames. A sudden thought popped into my mind, "am I in Pompeii."

He responded, "it's year 2032," I took a step back, completely astonished of his response. The man walked away with a smirk on his face as if he didn't believe me. I wonder what it would be like if my future self saw me. There was a 22 year difference in years, I should be 34 years old.

I answered "floor six please," The elevator started and it was fast. Personally, I love the new editions in the future. Before I knew it, the doors were open and I made my way to my
