Sadie was reading in her room, when she heard a mysterious noice from outside her house. She cracked open her window, curious. She looked out and saw a small notebook. There was nothing else there. She waited a few minutes, then ran down her stairs and out to the notebook. Sadie Blue had always been curious. Her curiosity got the best of her. This time, however, she didn't know what to do. She really wanted to grab it. The only problem was that this time... it just didn't make any sense whatsoever. But she had to pick it up. So that's what she did. She picked it up and it immediately opened. It turned threw pages and pages with nothing written on them, until it stopped on page 34. Sadie attempted to read it, but she couldn't. There was only a few seconds where she could see it. She caught the words "back," "time," and "month." Her mind immediately jumped to time-traveling a month away or before. But before she could formulate a full thought, she was sucked into the book. It couldn't have been a month. When she got out of the book, it blasted her yards back, then disappeared. And she was stuck in an old town, seemingly from the mid 1800's. Sadie slowly stood up, and she realized she was the only person in modern clothes. The only difference was she now had a small blue tattoo in the shape of a clock. She started trying to find anything that looked familiar, when she ran into a boy, near her age of 14. "Oh! Sorry!" she backed up. No matter what decade she was in, Sadie believed in stranger-danger. He looked at her quizzically, and Sadie noticed that she was drawing a lot of attention to herself with her modern outfit. Thinking fast, she announced in her best ad-slogan voice, "Get the all new and stylish hoodie and leggings! Only fifty dollars at your local store! You, sir, would look great in clothes like these!" Most of the people around her quickly busied themselves, and Sadie let out a sigh of relief. She was uncomfortable with all the attention. She examined the boy more closely. He was wearing trousers, boots, and an overcoat. His hair was short and brown, and he had green eyes. Sadie wanted to ask him some questions about what his life was like, but she was worried of the effects it might have. After all, in the movies you weren't supposed to alter the timeline, because of the- what was it called? Sadie always forgot. Buttermilk effect? Yeah, that was probably right. But... if she didn't ask questions, how was she supposed to learn anything? Sadie had to figure out what to do- and fast.
