《Tales of Disruption》‘One Chance’
Advertisement
‘One chance’—according to temporal guidelines.
After enduring rigorous psychological assessments, Dr. Daryl Smith was given his ‘one chance.’
And deservedly so.
After all, he formulated the theoretical physics behind it.
“Alright, Dr. Smith, your temporal dream machine’s ready. You chose to message your 20-year-old self. Remember—speak strictly by the script.”
Daryl nodded as they put the neural headset on him, then he closed his eyes, entering REM sleep.
He woke up immediately in his bed:
"What a nightmare! I can’t believe I was going to unleash such a paradoxical calamity on the world!"
Daryl wiped his chalkboard clean.
