~Chapter one~

I worked quickly twisting and turning the knobs and wires on my new invention. I had been working on it for the past few months and now it was just about complete but I

still wasn't sure if it was even work. I wipped the sweat off that beaded on my forehead with the back of my hand, I don't think I had worked so hard on something in my

life. The past few nights I hadn't really been sleeping and I hadn't gotten out of my treedome much either. Whenever my friends had come around I would neglect them

telling them I was to busy to play or hang out but the one friend I felt worst about doing that too was spongebob. He didn't deserve my mistreatment but oh well I was nearly

done so it couldn't hurt to take a little break.

I sipped slowly from my glass of lemonade. It tasted sour on my tounge but it was also refreshing to have something cool and liquid running down my dry throat. I reached

my hand up and rubbed my tired eyes. I wrinkled my nose in disgust at the bags under them. I shouldn't have kept myself up worrying about the contraption that sat behind

my tree but I couldn't help it it was almost addicting too keep working my fingers to the bone until it was done. I sighed heavily and let my eyelids droop as I laid my head

down on my folded arms. My vision started to blur as a wave of exaust hit me hard. A large yawn passed my sore jaw and I licked my cracked lips.

The wall of my large glass dome started to fade to black as the world of sleep enfolded over me but a knock at the door made me nearly jump outta my skin. I groaned loudy

as I moved my aching body towards the large steel door that seperated the undersea life from my air filled bubble.I wasn't shocked at all by my visitor who was the little

yellow sponge who stood there to greet me with a happy little grin. He had been visiting me everyday asking to go to goo lagoon or play karate but I had turned him

down and he would walk away with big sad eyes.

"Hi Sandy," he said holding out a small bundle of undersea flowers.

I sighed and my brow furrowed. It made me sad to have to turn him down again when he was just being the kind ,considerate ,friendly sponge he was. All he wanted was to

spend time me with me was that really so much to ask? He had done so much for me over the years and I was treating him like this. I felt disgusted with myslef for being so

selfish.

He smiled and he seemed to have an almost hopeful expression on his face,"Sandy I was wondering youv'e been working so hard latley and I think it might be good for

you to take a little break ....so what do ya say wanna go to jelly fish fields? Just the two of us?"

I sighed and gently took the flowers from his hands," Spongebob you know I can't go out and play I have important work here to finish,"I smiled softly,"but I'm almost done with my invention so mabey in a few days we could go see a movie or practice Karate ok?"

Spongebobs whole expression dropped. Hie eyes grew large and his shoulders sagged,"B-b-but Sandy you've been working for the past months the only time I get to see you is when I come to the door!Haven't you been working enough? I'm sure it wouldn't do any harm to take a break! Please Sandy I just wanna spend time with you! Not patrick not squidward not anyone else YOU!"

My eyes widened slightly and my heart felt like it had been squeezed at his words. There was some hidden meaning behind them but my tired brain just couldn't figure it

out mabey if I had some sleep.I watched his large eyes glisten sadly and I was mesmerized by the bright blue sheen of it. My head tipped to the side and I knew I was

going into a daze. I shook my head and and blinked. I really needed to take a break but not now when I was so close to finishing I knew if I took a break now I would never

finish.

I sighed regretfully and placed my hand on his shoulder,"Spongebob I promise you and I can do something together soon I meant it when I said I was almost done so please just be patient ok? I'll see ya later sponge bye."

"But Sandy--" I quickly shut the door and slumped against it before he could argue any more. I couldn't deal with this not now.

I moved my feet towards the treehouse and made my way into the kitchen. I leaned against the window sill and watched silently as the sponge walked down the road towards

his own house. He glanced back multiple times until finally he stopped and turned back around to stare at the treedome. I raised my eyebrow and wondered what he was

doing. His eyelids drooped and his eyes were dull. His lips moved as he spoke and my curiosity burned to know what he was saying to himself.

Oh well I couldn't waste my time worrying about him its not like I would be taking forver to work on this thing. I turned back to my living room and gathered some materials

that would put the final touches on my machine. I felt giddy as I ran towards the hunk of metal and wire that waited under the large tan tarp behind my treehouse.

The material swooshed as I pulled it off and I looked at it with pride. It was tall and gleamed in the sunlight. There was a small opening that could fit about two people and

inside was a dashboard filled with controls and a small screen. I sqeezed insde the area and opened up a small door under the dashboard. It was filled with long thin wires

and in the center was a circular area that could only fit one thing and that one thing was in my hand. It would be what would bring my creation to life and make it

work...hopefully.

My hand shook in excitment as I reached forward slowly. Electric shocks flew from the space as it conected and slid in perfectly fitting. A loud buzz rang through my ears

and a bright light blinded me. A mowing sound ,almost like that of a computer starting up,boomed around the treedome.

I slowly opened my eyes and my jaw dropped. I couldn't believe it! There on the little screen on the dashboard read the words "Starting up".

"Oh my god...it...it works,...IT WORKS IT WORKS," I gave a texas whoop and jumped up and down in excitment.

I danced out of the machine and twirled around to see the lights shining and the soft buzz of electricity jolting from blue orb to blue orb at the top.I couldn't belive it I had

just made what no other creature had even dreamed of finishing an actual running Time machine!
