Chapter 1
"......And make sure you start on the Winston report, along with the Baker files." Mitchell ended
"But Mitchell, the Baker files aren't my responsibility! I'll be up all night working on them!" I replied.
"Hey, you get paid too much anyway, Nino. So get to work!"
"Yes sir." I grunted
I took the Baker files off of Mitchell's desk and walked to my own. My coworker Margaret walked in, "Damn! Ever since Mitch became the head of the insurance agency, he has really been taking charge! I think Jonah was a way better boss, right?" she started.
"Yea, i guess. Jonah got too old though, he had to give the office to his son. He's 60 now."
"He built this company up all by himself and now Mitchell thinks he's all that!" Margaret ended as she sighed and left the room.
Margaret did that when she was mad at Mitchell, I didn't care or notice too much.
Jonah entered, "Hey Nino! If you want, you can give me the Winston report, you seem to have a lot on your plate."
"It's OK Jonah, I can handle it." I said clearly lying.
"Are you sure?"
Jonah still worked in the office having nothing much to do in his old age. His wife passed away long ago and he was happy here.
"You can work on it if you want to, but It'll take a while....." I replied
"Trust me, It's OK!" He said as I left the office out the back and into the company's 'break yard.'
The yard overlooked the populous city that I lived in and the view was spectacular. To the right next door, there was a BioChemistry lab that I liked to watch. I'd would always peep through the window to see the experiments that made the chemists laugh and smile. It made me almost envious; I've longed to be happy. I was a man who didn't know his purpose in life, so I looked upon others for happiness.
"God, I miss working for Jonah. I wish I was there when he first started this company in the 1970's." Nino said to himself as he leaned on the fence that separated the office building from the laboratory.

Chapter 2
"Jesus Joey! You're still working on that failed project?" A chemist from the lab asked the other.
"I just..... I wanted to make it work so that i could meet my father when he was alive. I got this mixture all set up and I checked out the math on the chalkboard. It all adds up. I have to test it on someone." Joey, the second chemist answered.
"You're not going to get legal clearance to test it and I certainly won't. It's time travel for God sake!"
"Well, according to my calculations, it should only last 12 - 24 hours. Can you please try it?"
"No Joey. Try it on that neighbor guy who keeps watching us experiment."
"The insurance guy? Eh, It's worth a shot....." -----------------------------------------
"Hey you, are you interested in trying an experiment for us? You just look so interested...." Joey said to Nino through the fence.
My eyes widened in excitement, "What does it do?" I asked nervously as I pointed to the vile he was carrying filled with a clear-like red liquid.
"It.... Uh.... makes you ten times stronger than you are now!" Joey blurted out.
"well, OK I guess...." I said as I took the vile in my hand through the fence and drank it.
"Are you sure It's safe?" I asked when I finished it, weirded out by the bad taste.
"Completely safe...... How do you feel?" He responded.
I started to shake. I could barely speak, "My stomach hurts guys...." is all I could muster as I slowly fell unconscious.

Chapter 3
"Buddy, I'm going to have to ask you to leave the premises." A man said as he shook me awake.
"Gah!" I said as I realized my surroundings. I was naked. I quickly covered my privates with my hands and took a step backward. I took in my surroundings: I was alone with this guy next to a lone building on a hilltop. "What.... happened?....uh..... Can I please use our cell phone to call for help?" I asked shyly and embarrassed.
"Uh.... sure." He said as he pulled out his cell phone.
This phone looked so old, I had to laugh.
"Dude, where'd you get that phone? The 60's?" I said as I continued to giggle.
"For your information, this is a brand new 1976 cellular!" He said in a serious tone.
"New?" I said out loud. I was confused, he seemed so serious. "Wait, did you just say it was 1976???" I said in a slightly laughing tone.
"All year." he replied and continued, " Look buddy, if you're confused-" I cut him off
"No no! I was.....uh.... robbed. Look, can you just drive me to the nearest store so I can get some clothes?" I asked very scared.
"Sure I suppose I can drive you to the store."
"Thanks, man. You're a huge help!"
Eventually, the man drove me to nearby store and bought me clothes. I wondered the store and browsed the newspapers. All of them had the same date: October 1, 1976. I couldn't believe my situation. I was in awe for 30 seconds until I realized I had to work with the current situation.
"Hey, you owe me $10.80 for the clothes." the friendly man told me.
I couldn't reply. My mind went blank. All I could think about was his arm grabbing mine. His white but tanned skin looked almost perfect as it complimented the tight tank-top he was wearing.He was an idol. Well, one you find in 1976. His hair was short but kinda poofy and his clothes didn't match. Nor did mine.
"I don't have any money, as you can see. But I promise, I can work for you in whatever way. I'm just confused and need to get things settled." I said disgruntled.
"Well, I could use the help in the building you were just at that I recently bought. Are you good with insurance?"
"What a coincidence!" I said to myself. "As a matter of fact I am." I finally replied.
"My name is Jonah. How about you?"
