The Time Machine

One day I was walking down the street passing the junk yard when I saw a little red dot on the sidewalk. I looked into the junk yard and saw it was a kind of projector. So I picked it up and went to the junk yard office. I walked in the door and there was a 30 year old guy sitting at his desk.
“What do you want?" he said.

“I was wondering how much does this cost” I said.

“You can have it for free” he said.

Then I went home. When I got home I ran to my room.

When I got home I set the projector on the night stand and started doing my homework. About five minutes later the projector started to move and it actually turned into a robot and started to talk. “Hi I’m a time traveling machine” the robot said.

”AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH” I screamed!

“Are you ok, honey?” my Mom said.

“Ya Mom,” I said.

“What year would you like to go to?” the robot said.

"I want to go 4 years into the future," I said.

Two seconds later the room started to spin. When it stopped I felt like I was going to get sick and I did. I saw that I was older about 16 years old. I had a red truck that I saw in the driveway and I saw that a girl was walking to the door. A few seconds later I heard “Your girlfriend is here,” my younger brother said.

Then in a quick second I heard “Hello” on the door. It was my girlfriend.

“Are you ready to go to the movies” she said.

“Be right there” I said. I came out of the door and she was standing right right there.

“Why didn’t you open the door for me?" she said.

“Umm umm I was shaving” I said.

We got in the car and started to drive. “Where are we going?" my girl friend said.

“Umm umm I'm talking a shortcut” I said.

Five minutes later we got to the movies. I asked my girlfriend “Do you want to get the tickets or the candy.”

“I’ll get the candy” she said.

When we walked into the theater we were watching a movie about a kid finding a projector that turned into a robot at a junk yard. He goes into the future and goes to the movies with his girl friend and watches about a kid that did the same thing.

After the movies I dropped of my girlfriend at her house and went to mine. When I got home I saw a robot head sticking out from under the bed and picked it up. “What year would you like to to?” the robot said.

“I want to go 4 years into the past,” I said. The room started to spin again.

I was back in my room and got sick again. I was young again. Then I heard, “Do you want to have cookies?” my mom said.

“Yes,” I said. I threw the robot under the bed and left it there for a very long time.
