Time Traveller

You strap yourself into the Time Machine, as the overseer checks the harness and the Energy Fuel Boosters.

"You are all set. But please be careful of the Time Paradox. If interrupted, time as we know it will be changed and time as we know it now may not even exist."

You nod your head in agreement as you set the timing gauge to July 10th, 2030, ten days after the revolution of the states. But what makes this assignment pertain especially to you, is that it is your great grandson, 45 years old, who has led one side of the revolution dividing the entire United States, the Eastern States from the Western States. Which side he is fighting for is unclear.

"The machine is ready!" the overseer announces to several other researchers who had gathered in the research area. They take a step back as the doors slide closed.

You enter the key launch sequence, The machine spins as the lights flicker and flash almost to an untimely strobe lighted effect. The outside has an almost transparent effect. Within a couple of seconds the machine no longer stands based in the research center lab room, but now stands somewhere in the Western Middle of the Country of the US.
