I completely missed my target. There was nothing there. He had
gone. Vamoosed, Disappeared, scarpered in
the blink of an eye. One minute lined up in crosshairs, the next nowhere to be
seen. Why and how would that happen? It mesmerised me, confused me. I began to
search my memory for any signs of slippage. Any sign of a blip. It was a
hopeless task. Maybe he saw me and fled? In the middle of a wide open space? No,
Impossible. Did I blackout? I checked my
watch. The blackout monitor on my wrist was still green. No. You can never be
too careful at this altitude. I dusted myself off and made to leave, Puzzled. Just
as I turned around, it was then I noticed the weeds, the branches, the lush
vegetation around me. YEARS WORTH OF GROWTH THAT WASNT THERE HALF AN HOUR AGO!!
The horizon had changed too. I could see
the outline of the rocky cliff was different, perceptively so. Then while a
dizzying feeling came over me, a forerunner of feinting, the knowledge hit me like a wave. It was I
that had moved. Not in space....BUT TIME!!!.....
