GROUP 8-JORDAN COUDEN& Eric Hinton& Amanda Eagland

I heard glass shadder and my brother scream. I thought he got shot but what really happened was he got hit with an F.B.I. agents flashlight. This all started when my brother wanted to go to Switch to get help putting his trucks on his new skateboard. When we got done at switch we wanted to go out to eat but my sister, sarah was mad at my mom because she would not let her see her boyfriend so she stayed at home and would not go anywhere. When we got to the house my brother went up to the garage to put his skateboard away and to see if my sister wanted to go out to eat. Well my mom had taken the phone's out from the house because she did not want my sister to get a hold of her boyfriend, so she could not just call inside to ask, so she sent my brother Adam in to ask her. A few minutes passed and he didn't come out, so my mom pulled into the driveway and started honking the horn to see if my brother would come out, he didn't so as she was about to go inside she looked up and seen some guy walking through the yard towards the car. As the guy got closer he raised his arm up at the time we couldn't tell what it was but as he got closer we realized it was a gun that was in his hand when my mom tried to pull out of the drive way and went through the side yard and as we got closer to the backyard another guy came out with something in his hand over his head at the time we didn't know what it was and the next thing you know we hear glass shadder and my brothers screams. My mom drove to my brothers friends house and called the police well we then found out once the police got there that they were under cover police men trying to find some guy they were looking for that was always down the street. We found out that my brother was hit with one of the police mans flashlight and that was why he screamed. We then find out that my brother Adam was masked and handcuffed and had guns held to his head my sister who was inside tried to tell the police officers that he was her brother well they didn't believe her because they said he didn't have an id well he was only 14 but hey thought he was older and had his license. Well this is when we all came back together and found out that everyone was okay my mom was worried sick about my sister and brother. My sister then forgot about the whole thing about why she wasn't talking to my mom and now they are really close. Then we all had to go to a counselor to get help. All of us had nightmares and all tried to sleep in the same room. Everyone was afraid to do stuff no one would go out after dark, no one could sit in the car if it was out front of somewhere-we had to keep moving, no one would take the trash out once it got dark, it was too hectick. Well this is where we were driving and then, Wablam! traveling back in time.

When it first happened none of us knew what was going on. We saw a bright flash and then we were all standing out in front of the house. We were all so confused and had no idea what to do next, so we just went into the house. When we walked into the house we were all a little scared so we decided to watch some tv to help calm our nerves. But little did we know the tv was only going to make the situation worse. My mom went to turn on the tv and when she did the news was on. Only it was something very weird about it. The news was talking about something that happened a year ago and all of the dates that were stated were from last year also. At this point we were a little freaked out but we tried not to worry too much. Then all of the sudden our house phone started to ring. I went to go pick it up. When I looked at the caller id I saw that it was my ex-girlfriend. I hadn't talked to her much since last year when we broke up so I figured this must be really important. I answered the phone and on the other end I heard her scream HAPPY 17th BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! At this point I just thought that she had lost her mind because first of all it wasn't even my birthday and on top of that I wasn't 17 I was 18. Right when I was about to respond something hit me. It was like I was having deja vu only everything was so real. Then it all started to make sense to me the big bright flash, the news from a year ago, my ex-girlfriend calling me and saying I was 17. Everything was starting to become so clear to me now. We had traveled back in time!!!!!!! But the main question running through my head was how and more importantly why....... ?

I ended up hanging up on my ex not thinking and sitting down so i didn't fall over from shock. I looked at my family and said " we traveled back in time" my mother looked at me like i had lost my mind and told me to "shut up". I stood up and threw my hands in the air and yelled " we did put the clues together mom!!!!" Then everyone started panicing and walking around the room, the house turned into complete and utter chaos. My sister started screaming and i decided to go for a walk.... I ended up walking around town and seeing stores that were still open even though i knew they closed down from the economy being so bad. I thought to myself " How could this be happening, it's not possible" I started to think about the event that just happened and how we were heading to counseling. It finally made sense! We were sent here to change things so that the F.B.I didn't come into my house. so that we could live out a normal life and not have phobias. I started to run home to tell everyone.... on my way home the only thing running through my head was "how,how,how" what do we do? How do we do it? I reached my house and ran inside i tried to tell everyone what i thought and they looked at me like i was a clown. Mom said "lay down" but i told her i couldnt and ran back outside because i knew that they wouldnt help me. I ran down the street to Mikes house (my best friend). I knew that he would believe me or at least listen better then my family did.Once i got there i ran right in without knocking. Mike looked at me with a confused face and ask what was wrong. Keeping his attention on me while i caught my breathe i slowly started talking while gaspign for air. " my family and i..... well ....... we were sent back in time..... to right now..... to like fix things." i said still trying to breathe and wipping the sweat from my forehead. " don't ask me how but we did" i started after finally collecting myself. Mike just stood there staring at me like i was stupid for a good ten or so minutes until he asked finally if i wanted a drink. I looked at him with a stupid look and replied " no just sit down and listen, will ya?" I then went through the events with the FBI that would be happening with my family in a matter of months and how we were sent back to fix it. He still looked at me confused until i went on and told him all the clues and what exactly happened with my car, and the light flashing. He was actually the first person to believe me, and agreed to help me. We set out to fix this!

We didn't exactly know how to do this but we were going to find out. If only we knew what to do first this problem would go away. We sat with cookies and Kool-aid on occasions we would sip some milk. Nothing came to the brain. "Think as hard as you can" we said to one another, but still nothing. Finally it was about 5pm and still sunny. We went for a buddy walk and talk. Rita's Waterice was on the way so we couldn't pass it without getting a gelati. We sat there with the gelati and came to the conclusion that our first clue was our so-called friend Hesthe Baddude. I knew there was something suspicious about him. We went to dig deeper the find the reason on why we thought it was him. The final reason we came up with was that he set us up to sell drugs for him and when we said no he manipulated us into doing it anyway. We obviously said yes, and went on a mission. The cops came around and said that it was us that was trying to kill him and terrorize him. Ever since then we never talked only on occasions. Maybe a hi and bye here and there, but nothing other than that. After the gelati was finished i went home took a shower and went on a mission to Hesthe Baddude's house with Mike. We were going to ask him about his whole lifestyle and why he does what he does. Also we were going to try to get him to say something very unlawful so that we can report him to the cops. Mike and I went to Hesthe Baddude's house around 7pm. We talked a little bit about his immaturity then ate. Finally we got deep and tried to change him because he is a real nice person if you are on his good side. After we secretly taped him and went home, Mike and I threw the tape away. That wasn't enough evidence and what he said wasn't even truthful. There was going to have to be a different way to go about this. After sitting and thinking all day our brains were fried and we couldn't think about anything any longer. Sitting playing games was the best way to relax. The time slipped by and before we knew it, it was about 2 in the morning. I guess it was a guy sleepover today because i was not in the mood to walk him home. After waking up that morning we both ate some breakfast that his mom made, we started thinking about it some more. My gut feeling told me it wasn't Hesthe Baddude. For some reason my mind drifted off to the older boy who lived about two houses down from mine. His whole family always kept to them selves and seemed very suspicious.I jumped up off of the floor and told Mike to get dressed we had to go to my house. After he was done we ran to my house and i grabbed a quick shower and some fresh clothes and we ran out the door in a matter of 10 minutes. I told him that i thought it was Ryan Duker a senior in our school and his brother Danielle who was a junior. As we slowely creeped around his house i peeked into the window of what seemed to be the family room. then i kept walking till i creeped around to ryans bed room as i looked in i say a bunch of merchandise that was jsut thrown everywhere. I slouched down under the window and thought to myself " the police were looking for a kid but never told us what for" Finally i put it together there were news paper articles about places around the area being robbed, And now i see all this stuff that must have been stolen sitting in this kids room. The police came to my house and got my brother, but they were wrong because they were two house to many to the right. I started running towards the police station and mike following behind me looking very confused. I finaslly stopped right in front of the Middletown police station breathing heavy and leaning down putting my hands on my knees. Mike showed up a little after winded and ask " What was that about man?" I ran into the station demanding to talk to a main officer. When officer Austin stepped out and grabbed me telling em to breathe and calm down. I sat down and got some water and he took me to his desk. I looked at him wiping the sweat from my forehead. And then told him everything i knew. about what i saw and how i put the clues together. After tellking him all this he gave me a ride home and promised to investigate it. I paced around my room that night like crazy. The next day i had major dajavo. It was the same date as it was when that horrible and terrifying event happened. But this time everything happened like it did before but when we were sitting in the drive way honking for my brother to come outside we say the men witht he guns that were undercover. The change was they weren't coming towards us but the hosue two doors down. After we saw them drag ryan out of the house in hand cuffs and slam Danille up against the cop car cuffing him also. We had saw a sudden flash of light. When it the light stopped i wasn't in the car i was in my room with Mike playing halo 5. I looked at him confused then went out into the hall then walked to the kitchen and saw my mom cooking lunch for me and mike. then ask where Adam was, my mom looked at me like i was crazy. " he is at his house" she said in a slow voice. " where is Sarah?" i asked in a quick voice. my mom walked over to me and put her hand on my head as she giggled she answered " with deryck, her boyfriend, remember they went to the beach. they askeed you and Mike to go" i looked at her and smiled then sprinted upstairs. I grabbed mike and said we did it man we fixed everything, my family is normal. He looked at me like i was insane and had three heads then replied " what in the world are you talking about" i laughed and looked down at my feet " nevermind man, let's go back to me beating you in halo" I grabbed the control and continued playing. thinking to myself "woah that was a adventure."
