Prophet Out of Time

Prolog: December 21, 2012 – The myans knew this would happen! I thought as I hurriedly packed my things into a duffel bag and ran into the basement. I knew that once I stepped into that little cryogenic rocket ship of ours there is no guarantee of my or more importantly my family's survival. As I haul my bag into the craft I gasp and sprint to the movie shelf. There, all the Star Wars movies. "I'm a nerd when it comes to this!"I say as I gather up them all and dash towards the rocket. By now the lava is seeping through the cracks on the ground. Oh gods! I'm not gonna make it in time! I thought as I through myself into the ship and sealed the door and finally enter the launch sequence and was off! Everyone has their helmets on and was getting ready to sleep for how many years are out of the question. As we reach the final shell of the atmosphere we all turned on our chambers and lay down to sleep.

Chapter 1: "She's still alive!" an astonished man breathes as I begin to wake. Frightened I try to scream but I can't find my voice. I'm cold and wet and then I remember what happened, "The rocket!" I gasp as I franticly look around for my family. I see them all around me lying in beds thawing out. As I lay my head back down I hear someone approaching me. "Good, good the first one she is." Wait a second, I know that funny scratchy voice and the weird speech thingy. As I slowly sit up I look towards the little green man sitting on the corner of my bed, "Jedi master Yoda!" I say astonished he nods and a man I recognize as Jedi apprentice Anakin and is master Obi-Wan Kenobi walks in. "Ok girl how do you know us? What is your name?" I stutter because of how enraged Anakin is at me. "I-I-I am S-S-Sydney master Anakin and umm, well I know you people because of the, well umm the movies."

"Movies? What movies? Tell me now before I-"

"Anakin! Calm yourself let her be. Go stand at the doorway and guard, now Sydney you may ask any questions but we will be questioning you later on."

"Well gee I'm sorry Anakin I didn't mean to get you in trouble, umm so uh what year is this? Because I don't know and well my family and I have been in chronic sleep since 2012"

"Ohhh we don't have your year but let me calculate that… a few major math problems later, well Sydney I don't know how to tell you this but you and your family have been asleep for 698 billion years."

"Oh my gods!" I say and then everything fades into blackness.

"Good job master you've knocked the poor girl out." Anakin remarks.

"Well at least I didn't scream at her face." Obi-Wan shoots back.

"Well played." Anakin says.
