Chapter
One
Destruction was
all around us. We left the garage of the secret
headquarters underground barely escaping the devastation.
We accelerated to top speed and vanished in a flash of
lightning. Our destination was the past. April 9, 1993,
Hecerrisonburg, Virginia. Paul Simon and myself, Buck
Rogers, have come back in time to fix the future. We were
on our way to meet Erik Cursen and J.J. Boltono at their
high school. Our only hope was that we could get to the
culprit in time before he could do the unthinkable,
nuclear war.
We turned on our
cloaking device and landed near the high school. We
waited in time vehicle for Erik and J.J. to get out of
school. They were about to walk by when we stopped them.
"What's up
guys?" asked Erik.
We filled them in
on why we were there. They weren't to happy about it.
Especially after we told them that the culprit was Harold
White
"I know who
he is." said J.J. "He used to be one of the top
chemists in the world. He started out as a chemistry
teacher here at the high school."
"Yea, I
remember. I did an English report on him back in seventh
grade." explained Erik.
"Well, it's
good to see you keep up with your school work but I think
we better get on the case." said Paul.
"Then lets
hit the road. First we need to find out his
whereabouts." I said.
"Let's check
the onboard computer. Maybe it will have something."
suggested Paul.
We brought up the
files we had Harold White. They gave one location. San
Francisco, California. We decided to check there first.
Hopefully we would find some clues there. We loaded up
the time machine and started on our way. At the top speed
of 250 mph. we would be there by nightfall. Reservations
were made at a local hotel. We weren't sure how long we
would be there. Although we had a time machine there was
no time to waste. We had to stop White before it was to
late. Before disaster broke lose everywhere. Before all
humanity was destroyed.
