It Was Time For Dr. Duck's Time Machine
Once upon a time in a huge metropolis called Danville, Va there lived a mad scientist named Dr. Duck. Actually, that was the nickname everybody called him because he was actually a, "quack." He went to Averett College, but his professors didn't like his performance in the classrooms and knew if he didn't pass him, he'd have him again the next year. He took it as a subtle hint that it was not his thing, so he turned to other fields. Yet every teacher encouraged him to play baseball because he would be a lot more, "outstanding in his, 'field.' " Besides, there were so many people who were doctors that happened to be in his family he thought it would be a good thing for him to do since it was in his genes. As it turned out, the only things in his, "jeans" were patches which said Wrangler or Lea. Besides, his uncle was a podiatrist named Dr. Shoals. His cousin was a plant surgeon named Dr. Pepper. His sister was a heart surgeon named Dr. Love. His uncle was a brain surgeon named Dr. Franklin Norman Stine, but not many people came to him because the sign on his door read, "Brain surgeon, 'Dr. Frank N. Stine.' " His aunt was a longevity doctor named Dr. Livingston so all the people who came to see him would say, "Dr. Livingston, I presume." His aunt was an obstetrician named Dr. Spank. His granddaddy was a Vulcan space doctor named Dr. Spock. His cousin was a sad bird expert named Dr. Blue J.. His sister was a suicide doctor named Dr. Keels. His cousin was a family practitioner named Dr. Doctor which meant everybody who came to see him would yell, "Dr. Doctor! Give me the news! I've got a bad case of loving you!" He had high hopes that he would be able to follow in his families footsteps, although unfortunately somebody covered them up although he figured being in the medical field was in his genes, but unfortunately, the only thing in his, "jeans" was dirt, himself and patches which read Lea and Wrangler. That's when he tried looking into his family genealogy. The problem was that none of his relatives were genies.
That caused him to try other methods of science. Because one of them was about time, and he was interested in that kind of thing since he wasted so much of it, he decided to study more about it. Some people suggested he change his profession and work in a clock factory since that way he could actually get paid for, "making faces" all day long. Besides that, if he threw one out the window it would help him to make his, "time fly." Yet being a scientist was still his bag, but his, "bag" was definitely not working behind the cash register at a grocery store.
After much trial and error, which was all error, he figured he would learn more from his mistakes, but that would make him be the smartest person in history. Still, he was curious about time and he'd been that way ever since he'd read the book by Jules Verne called The Time Machine. That was where the guy invented a machine that could travel into the future, only he ended up seeing the end of the world happen. He'd also read The Sound Of Thunder which was where the guy went back in time to study prehistoric dinosaurs. That got him to thinking, since paleontologists say that dinosaurs were so many millions of years before man even existed, but the Bible sad God made all living things on the 5th day and man on the 6th day. One of them wasn't right so he wanted to learn the truth.
He set his machine for 12,000 b. c. to see what happened. After a great deal of having thing whirling around him, it eventually stopped. That's when he opened the door. To his surprise, he saw a mastodon and a triceratops going towards each other with neither of them looked too happy to see the other. They both roared different sounding roars then they commenced to fighting. The doctor was facilitated watching the 2 giants battling each other. He took many pictures of them going at each other. That's when he saw a tyrannosaurus rex come up beside them. Without roaring, it killed the other 2 monsters who'd been fighting. Then it roared an extremely loud victory roar over the ones it had killed. The doctor took several pictures of them, then had to change the role and put more into his camera. Later he saw some other huge monsters fighting for something, although he couldn't tell what it was about. He knew their brains were the size of a walnut, which was obvious by how those massive beasts fought over things he didn't understand and he wondered why they couldn't get along, but it was obvious why they were extinct. Creatures that stupid didn't deserve to survive.
After collecting the actual body of what was left of the defeated foe, he was carrying it to his time-machine when suddenly a great big Patagotitan, which he recognized as one of the biggest dinosaurs, saw him. He hurried to his time-machine and hit the button which sent him to the year 1492. That's when he saw a man who looked like Christopher Columbus, judging from the pictures he had seen of him. He went over to the distraught looking man and asked him his name. When he told him, he asked why the long face. Then he told him he needed more money to get more ships because all he had was the Nina. Dr. Duck told him to ask Queen Isabella to fund him for 2 others called The Pinta and Santa Maria. That's when he told him he was crazy, but the doctor said, "Many people who some thought were crazy had ended up doing awesome things which would help many people in the future. Yet when he asked him to give him examples, he said, "You'll just have to trust me on this one, Chris." That made him smile and it gave him the encouragement he needed to carry on with his dream, but he wanted him to come and discover The New World when they reached the Indies. Doc told him he wouldn't make it there, but he would discover a new world where the people could be free to live as they wanted to without being ruled by wicked kings. He got offended, thinking he meant King Ferdinand, who's a good king, but the Doctor told him that there would be some not-so-good kings such as King George the third. After giving him a lot of thanks, he turned to his crew and told them what he'd just heard. That made them smile and come back to join him on his ship. Dr. Duck felt like his job was done there, so he got in his time machine and set the date for October 19th 1781.
When he got there, he saw a bunch of weary soldiers being lead by a man who looked like he was in charge, but he was really discouraged. Dr. Duck knew who he was, none other then The Father Of Our Country, so as he went up to him he said, "Excuse me, sir, are you General George Washington, by any chance?"
"That's right," sighed the bedraggled man, "Don't bug me now. I'm getting ready to surrender from this silly war and let King George The 3rd have his way."
"No! No! You don't want to do that!" said the doctor, "Why any minute you'll see Cornwallis come over the hill waving a white flag. The victory is at hand."
"How can you say that?" asked the weary general quite sadly, "There's no way we can win this war. I may as well get back to Spain and keep living under that stupid old King George The Third's rule. He's really not all that horrible."
At that moment they saw through all the smoke and musket balls a tall man waving a white flag yelling words they couldn't understand. When Washington told his men to stop firing, they heard the voice of Cornwallis shouting, "Stop! Seize fire! That's enough fighting! Stop all that dreadful shooting, old been!"
The bedraggled general looked at Dr. Duck and said, "How did you know he was going to do that? You must be a warlock! Or you're a darn good witch! Oops! Excuse me! I didn't mean to say a bad-word in front of you, kind sir!"
Then he gave him a considerable amount of money, but the doc had never seen any kind of currency which looked like that. He tried to decline it, but the general, and future president insisted that he take it. Dr. Duck thought if he didn't accept his generous reward, it would offend him, so he took it gratefully.
That gave him an aery feeling by taking such a reward from the most famous person in history. Then after saluting him, he got into his time machine and set it for the year 2215. To his dismay, there was a battle going on then as well, only against weird looking things flying through the air. He knew they looked nothing like what our fighter planes were like so they had to be from somewhere else. To his horror, the flying things were destroying the whole planet Earth. He saw some men running who were dressed in some kind of sophisticated-looking attire charging by him. Some of them jumped into what looked like a foxhole beside him so he said to one of the man who had just gotten there, "Excuse me, sir, what's going on here? Who are these things trying to kill you out there?"
"You're kidding, right?" replied the man who was startled by his question, "Well, like you didn't know, those are the pogians from planet Jonniker! They're only trying to destroy the whole Earth, that's all, stupid! Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to trying to save the planet, or at least what's left of it anyway!"
There was a lot of screaming and explosions all around him as he hurried to get back to his time-machine. Yet as he was running up the steps to get into it, suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his leg which traveled all the way through his body. It made him fall to the floor. Then a man dressed in some odd-looking protective gear yelled, "Hay! You've been hit! Come with me to the dimser! He'll fix you up! Now come on quick before the paralyzing process comes into play!"
Instead, Dr. Duck struggled to get into his time machine. Just before he hit the button to take him back home to the present time, he saw the bad aliens shoot something down, demolishing the whole planet. Fortunately, he was able to hit the return switch just before he was shot. The time-machine whirled off, but it had been damaged, and it was going in the wrong direction, forward. He saw the whole Earth get blown up by those creatures who'd been fighting the earthlings.
Yet as he landed on the floor of his craft, he saw that he'd hit the wrong switch and was going into the future. However, since the Earth was demolished, there was nothing to hold him up. He went falling into nothingness. That's when he managed to hit the right button which sent him flying back to the present time.
As he got there, the time-machine was messed up because it had been hit by those alien's fire power. His left arm and right leg were broken, but somehow he managed to get out of his machine rather painstakingly, then he hobbled to his phone and called 911. When he told the dispatcher what had happened to him, she smiled and said, "Oh, yes sir! We'll send somebody there right away, right after all the Martians and gargoyles have been destroyed!" Then she cut him off.
All of a sudden a bolt of lightening struck him. The weird thing about that was there wasn't a cloud in the sky. What made it even more unusual is that it struck inside the building. The doctor thought that kind of thing doesn't happen every day. Yet when he tried to stand up, he jumped to his feet as if he had 2 bionic legs. He didn't need a doctor's help because the best Doctor of all-time had just healed him. After that, he joined a full-Gospel, Spirit-filled, Pentecostal, Holly-rolling, Bible-believing Church which was called Mount Zion Church in Danville. Since the bolt of lightening had struck him, he knew everything the Word said, even though he'd never read any of It in his life. Later he went to seminary school and became a pastor since he had so much Biblical knowledge in his head, considering he'd never read it, or even been to Church since he was a young lad. That lightening-bolt gave him enough knowledge to become a Pentecostal pastor so he could, "past" in a Church. Later he met a girl who joined it. They dated a while, then got married. Later his wife had symptoms of The Hong-Kong flu. Yet when he took her to the doctor, he told him she had the Egyptian flu. When he asked, "What is that?" the doctor replied after punching him playfully on his arm, "She's going to become a, 'mummy!' "
So like the best-written children's stories of all-time will officially finish up with, "THEY ALL LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER !!!!"
