Part 2
As I'm trying to get the image of Donald Trump out of my mind, my phone starts to ring.
"Hallo, this is Harley speaking, how may I help you?"
"Oh, hey Harley...Yeah, this is Ms.Lee the manager at Target."
"Oh, hey! I was just getting ready for work!" I say, e'en though I'm still laying down, with a pillow over my head.
"Yeah about that...Harley you're fired." She said. She sounded like a monotone robot.
Wait did this bi- " So don't bother showing up for work today. Or ever." She hangs up.
No. She. Did. Not.
She just messed up. I suddenly sit up with new found confidence. I should go there and...do something. I don't know what, but I-I'll figure it out on the way.
I take a shower, and put on pants and a Nirvana t-shirt. Grabbing my car keys, I head out towards target.
***
I walk into Target with purpose. I'm just gonna talk to her. Just to see what her problem is.
I see the door with a gold plated sign that says, 'Manager', and knock. Ms.Lee opens the door.
When Ms.Lee, it should I say Debra, saw me, she scoffed.
"Harley? What are you doin-" She didn't get to finish her sentence because I punched her. Square on the jaw.
I tried to stop myself, but I couldn't. I had always despised Debra.
Before I could go any further, I was taken off of her idle body that laid on the floor.
The next thing I know I'm running away from the cops. I had somehow ended up in the forest behind the Target.
I saw the red and blue lights around me, booted feet crunching up the dried leaves.
As I run, I thought I tripped over a stick. But I saw nothing on the ground.
My eyebrows meet in the middle. What just happened?
"Stop right there!" A police officer yells.
"Gotta blast!" I get up to run again.
"Come in here." I hear a person whisper. I look up ahead and see a silhouette of a man. His shadow waving me over.
As I run towards him, my legs become lead.
No, no no. Eventually my whole body crashes to the ground. My hazy eyes focuses on the man walking towards me.
I was able to get one last look at his boots before passing out.

"Hello, girl that appeared out of no where." A guy said. He had a white lab coat on like the scientists in those movies. Anyway he looked to be about in his late 20's. Black raven hair, bright blue eyes, and he was pretty tall.
"Uh. Hello..?" I draw out.
"I'm Dr.Alvarez." He sticks out his hand.
"I'm Harley. Nice to meet you?" I shake his hand. I look around and it looks like I'm not in Kansas anymore. "Could I ask where I am? Was I not just in the forest?" He starts to chuckle.
"You, sweetie, are in my lab."
"A lab?" It definitely has lab supplies like computers, beakers, weirdly colored concoctions, and etc.
"Cool place you got here."His face glowed with unmasked pride.
"Thanks, Holly!"
I try to correct him, "Actually, it Harle-"
"Well anyway, I need a favor Holly." He says. I tap my chin with my index finger.
" First off, it's Harley, and second what's in it for me?" I question.
"Hm, well... you get to go back into time...?" I give him a placid look. "You get a donut?" I raise my eyebrow. "You get paid." I narrow my eyes.
"Sounds good...Do I really get paid?"
"Uhh... IS THAT A TACO?!" He points behind me. I quickly turn around,
"WHERE?!" A blunt force hits me on the side of the head. I see stars and eventually pass out.
***
I see red behind my eyelids.
"Owww..." I rub my throbbing forehead. I get up slowly to ease my sudden vertigo.
Where the hell am I? I'm in a forest and the trees are at least 20 feet tall. I take a few minutes to regain myself.
" Dr. Alvarez!" I yell into the wilderness. "I don't get a response.
I walk deeper into the forest. Maybe 20 minutes later of searching for the doctor and yelling my heart out, I hear gallops.
"Horses?" I whisper. Why are there horses in the forest.
"Hello?!" I hear a British voice. The thumping of horses feet get louder by the second.
I gasp.
A voice! A human voice! "I'm over here! Help!"
As look around for the person, I see a dark colored horse.
I wave my hands back and forth hoping to get the person's attention. The horse stops in front of me and it's coat is mesmerizing dark brown.
The mysterious rider took off their helmet. "Holy Biscuts." I exclaim quietly. The man had bright, icy, eyes, Dirty blonde hair, his jaw had a light stubble, and beautiful white teeth. My face heats up. I must look like an idiot staring at him like this.
"Who are you?" He asks coldly. Woah, major turn off. What's with the attitude change?
I hesitate, "Uh..."
"My name.. my name is..."
"Is it a hard question? Do you even have a name or title?"
"Yes...?"
The man on the horse looked down at me, expecting an answer.
Crunching of leaves makes me turn around and I see a guy the size of my dad, but he too was gorgeous. He had dark skin and green and Hazel eyes. You could easily see his broad shoulders are outlined by his armor. His hair was darkish-brown and it was shaved into a nice low buzz cut. He also was riding on a horse.
"What weird clothes you have." The guy in front of me says.
He oddly reminded me of Thor. "No matter. Micheal, please place this girl on my horse."The buff guy named Micheal picks me up.
"Woah woah! Put me down!" I yell. I try to struggle but he doesn't let up. He places me on the stallion and Thor starts the horse in a trot and then a nice run. We ride out of the forest and into a clearing. It takes a minute for my sight to transition from the shaded darkness of the forest to a bright cover of the sun. But when it does, I'm in awe instantly. I see Buckingham palace. (Not really).
My moth drops open. WHERE AM I? WHERE IS THE DOCTOR?! Thor stops the horse abruptly and I fly forward, almost falling off the horse. He jumps down.
"That was a nice ride wasn't it Micheal?" Thor asks happily. This guy changes his emotions faster than a girl PMSing.
What trouble have I gotten myself in this time?
