Dear Journal,
I am now skateboarding over to the Twins Pine Mall to meet Doc. I just went over to his lab/house to pick up the video camera that he asked me to get for him. He told me that he had something to show me. Why would he want to show me something in the parking lot at the Twins Pine Mall at 1:15 AM? Well, I am here now. Oh no, what did Doc make now? There is a car coming out of this truck, oh great. The car slowing went down the ramp. When the car was now on the parking lot, Doc lifted up one of the doors of the car and popped out! "Um, well it's a delorean, right?" I questioned Doc. "Bare with me, Marty, all of the questions will be answered. Roll the tape, we'll proceed." said Doc. "Doc, is that a de-" "Nevermind that now." said Doc Brown. I turned on the video camera. He explained how his experiment with his dog Einstein was going to work, while I video taped him. We then put Einstein into the "time machine" and then stood many yards away right in the path of the delorean. He explained that once the delorean hits exactly 88 miles per hour that the experiment should work. Doc got out his "remote control thing" to work the car and then all of a sudden the delorean was barreling toward us. It got closer and closer. Then all of a sudden it must of hit 88 miles per hour because it disappeared. All it had left was flames from the tires. Doc shouted, "What did I tell you, eighty-eight miles per hour!!" "Hot, Jesus Christ, Doc. Jesus Christ, Doc, you disintegrated Einstein!" I said. "Calm down, Marty, I didn't disintegrate anything. The molecular structure of Einstein and the car are completely intact." He claimed. "Then where are they!!" I questioned. Then he said, "The appropriate question is, where arn't they? Einstein has just become the world's first time traveler! I sent him into the future. One minute into the future to be exact. And at exactly 1:21 a.m. we should catch up with him and the time machine!" Then I said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute, Doc, are you telling me that you built a time machine out of delorean?!" I said in a scared voice. Then he commented back and said, "The way I see it, if you're gonna build a time machine into a car why not do it with some style? Besides, the stainless, steel construction made the flux dispersal. Look out!!" The car came toppling out of no where. "What, what is it hot?" I asked. He answered back and said, "It's cold, very cold. Ha, ha, ha, Einstein, you little devil. Einstein's clock is exactly one minute behind mine, it's still ticking." "He's alright?" I asked. "He's fine, and he's completely unaware that anything happened. As far as he's concerned the trip was instantaneous. That's why Einstein's watch is exactly one minute behind mine. He skipped over that minute to instantly arrive at this moment in time. Come here, I'll show you how it works." He showed me inside the time machine. First, you turn the time circuits on. This readout will tell you where you're going, this one tells you where you are, this one tells you where you were." Doc said as he pointed to different readouts. "You imput the destination time on this keypad. Say, you wanna see the signing of the declaration of independence, or witness the birth or Christ. Here's a red-letter date in the history of science, November 5, 1955. Yes, of course, November 5, 1955." He explained. "What, I don't get what happened?" I questioned. "That was the day I invented time travel. I remember it vividly." He said. I was standing on the edge of my toilet hanging a clock, the porces were wet, I slipped, hit my head on the edge of the sink, and when I came to I had a revelation, a picture, a picture in my head, a picture of this. This is what makes time travel possible. The flux capacitor." He said. "The flux capacitor." I repeated as he pointed to the flux capacitor in the back of the delorean. He explained about that day he invented the flux capacitor. He said it was thirty years ago that he had drawn out the flux capacitor drawing/blueprint. He explained that things have really changed around here. He said that this used to be farmland as far as the eye could see, which was owned by Old man Peabody, thirty years ago. He said that Peabody had a crazy idea of breeding pine trees. Then I said, "This is uh, this is heavy duty, Doc, this is great. Uh, does it run on regular unleaded gasoline?" He answered and said, "Unfortunately no, it requires something with a little more kick, plutonium." I answered to his comment and said, "Uh, plutonium, wait a minute, are you telling me that this sucker's nuclear?!" Then he said, "Hey, hey, keep rolling, keep rolling there. No, no, no, no, this sucker's electrical. But I need a nuclear reaction to generate the one point twenty-one gigawatts of electricity that I need." I answered and said, "Doc, you don't just walk into a store and ask for plutonium. Did you rip this off?" He commented back and said, "Of course, from a group of Libyan Nationalists. They wanted me to build them a bomb, so I took their plutonium and in return gave them a shiny bomb case full of used pinball machine parts." I then answered, "Jesus." He then said, "Let's get you into a radiation suit, we must prepare to reload." As I got into a radiation suit, he said, "Safe now, everything's let lined. Don't you lose those tapes now, we'll need a record." Next he said, "I almost forgot my luggage. Who knows if they've got cotton underwear in the future. I'm allergic to all synthetics." "The future, it's where you're going?" I asked. Then he said, "That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series." I interupted and said, "Uh, Doc." he said, "Huh?" I asked, "Uh, look me up when you get there." he said "Indeed I will, roll em." I rolled the tape. "I, Doctor Emmett Brown, am about to embark on an historic journey." he said, "What have I been thinking of, I almost forgot to bring some extra plutonium. How did I ever expect to get back, one pallet one trip I must be out of my mind. What is it Einy?" he asked. He continued and said "Oh my god, they found me, I don't know how but they found me. Run for it, Marty!!" "Who, who?!" I asked. "Who do you think, the Libyans!" he answered. "Oh no!" I said. Doc held up he hands and they shot. The last thing I knew was that I saw Doc lying on the parking lot, dead. I screamed "NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


I scrambled into the delorean and got in and was racing around the parking lot because they were right behind me, on my tail. They probably didn't like me either.

My heart began to shatter into small pieces as every foot the delorean made away from my now dead friend, Doc. Once the delorean made it up to 88 miles per hour, my heart had been shattered into mircroscopic, very small pieces, that I would never ever be able to put back together again.

I accidently activated the time circuits....

Sadly,
Marty McFly
