Morning:
Our class is going to go to the Science and Technology show, with
the latest discoveries. I can't wait to go and see their special
feature, a time machine!
I
think we are the luckiest class, ever!
Afternoon:
After we had our lunches, we were allowed to play, but we were
told not to pass the boundaries, the time machine and the toilets.
I didn't notice it, but the school bullies were hiding behind
my back. Soon, they came up to me, and said that they will bash
me up if I didn't go inside the time machine as they told me to,
just to see if it really worked. I did, and they set the time
5000 years to the past.

I
opened my eyes to a stone room, with tan-skinned people with black
hair staring at me. I recalled seeing similar-looking people in
a book when I was studying Ancient Egypt. At first, I thought
it was just a dream, because I know that Egyptians did not speak
any of the languages I know, but somehow I can still understand
them. The taller one said "Bring her to the Pharoah".
Soon,
I was being carried to what they called their Pharoah. The first
thing I noticed when I got there, was that his room was filled
with lots of spectacular furniture, mostly made of gold, silver
and semi-precious stones. Then, I saw the Pharoah. He was named
Inyotef III, and he wasn't very happy with me. Luckily, they all
called him Pharoah (because it was rude to call them by their
real name), since I reckon I wouldn't be able to pronounce his
name, anyway, and that will get him even madder.
He
questioned me to many things, which included my name, why I'm
here, and how I got here. I explained to him that it was an accident
and I didn't know, he calmed down a bit. I asked him what happened.
He claimed that I, as well as a 'funny contraption', which, obviously,
was the time machine, appeared right in front of him when he was
having tea, on the top of a tree! He said that he found me unconscious,
when he decided that it was safe to touch the machine.
When
I asked to see the machine, he led me to his garden, and there
stood a glamourous table with chairs, and next to it was a squashed
tree and on top of that, was the time machine. I went inside,
and since it was solar powered, like most things are in my time,
it was ready to go. I said a final goodbye to the Pharoah and
his men, and I closed the door. I powered it up, and it took off
with a WOOSH!.

Luckily,
I arrived, safe and sound, just after lunch, at the Science and
Technology museum. Just before I got out, I checked the computer.
There was a file with all it's history in it. I opened the latest
one, and it read:
25th Sep 2345 AD
Place = Australia
Time = 5000 years to the past
Notes:
EMERGENCY LANDING
