I have a cat. Not so out of the ordinary, right? I mean, most people you meet have a cat or two. Or twelve; Depending on who you live next door to. Some people are dog people. Those people get fleas. Cat's clean themselves so at least you rarely have to worry about fleas. I mean for god sakes dogs eat their own poo, who would want th-... Anyway. Cat people. But my cat, you see. My cat is unique. He has a power that no other being on the planet has. Something that scientist's envy. Something that makes terrible movie plots. Something that blows the minds of any person who rubs him the wrong way.
My cat, can travel through time.
I've seen bombs dropped, people shot, walls torn down, people born, and technology invented. All thanks to this omnipotent feline. I have no control over it. After all, he's still a cat. I'm not even sure he's aware of it. One moment you are playing Street Fighter and the next you are trying not to be blown up as you run through Vietnam. When it happens to others all you see is a blip, a quick blink of their non-existence as quick as your eye, and they are gasping for breath or cheering or crying. Then they realize they are back in my room. Frightened for their sanity, they excuse themselves. I let them.
The events only happen when you are in contact with the cat. It can be petting, or an accidental rub. But eventually It'll happen to you. The actual travel is instantaneous, you feel nothing until you are staring at an angry lot of people you know aren't speaking your language. The first time I thought it was a dream. The second time I thought, maybe I was going a bit mad. The third time, well, it's not hard to figure it out, when, where ever, or...whenever you go, your cat is there still licking his a**. Now there are two kinds of people, I think. People who would agree to travel through time with their cat who may or may not be able to do it at will. And those who would agree to travel through time with their at who may or may not be able to do it at will, and tell people about it.
I am the later.
