Why did i have to get sick? If i hadn’t then there would be no need for me to be going from professor to professor trying to collect extra work and gt back to a point where I am not drowning. It will take some time, but there is no reason I wont be able to catch up with some hard work and determination.

The last professor on my roster was Professor Mikas. He was strange, but his classes were quite fun. He taught ancient history, a favorite of mine. He has this way of teaching that made it seem like he was part of the event. In this way he kept every student on the edge of their seat like they were in story time instead of an advanced college course. 

I knocked on Proffesor Mikas’ door, knowing he would give me somthing. He would never let a student fail for somthing so uncontrolable as sickness. No answer. Strange, it was his office hours. I knocked again with the same result. On previous occasions he had no issues with us just walking in to his office but somthing felt off. There was a strange sound coming from within, a rythmic buzzing. Unable to hamper my curiosity i opened the door. 

What I saw within was astounding. The rytmic buzzing sound was coming from a large metal object in the corner of the room. It was cylindrical, about the size that a grown man could fit inside comfortably. I had been to Professor Mikas office many times but this object had never been there. The metal tube wasnt the only thing, there was strange lights coming from it. It was like a disco with flashing lights in many different colors and hues. 

Professor Mikas was nowhere in sight, and suddenly neither was the metal tube. Just like that the lights were gone and the office was devoid of life. I looked around, trying to find any sign of Professor Mikas. Nothing. 

I tried to puzzle out what that may have been. Some sort of vanishing device? Maybe the reason that the professor seemed like he had been at these events is because he was? Why was time travel the only explianation that entered my head? Why was the idea of time travel not even phasing me? Those were all questions for another day. Since the professor was not here, there was no way i could ask them till his next office hours. Somthing this earth shattering couldn’t be put into a freindly email.
