[Write a fiction story about a time traveler who tries to alter a historical event.] Natalia couldn’t remember how long she had been saving to finally afford to rent the time machine. She only had until the end of the month before she had to return the device, yet it had already been a week in her possession and she still hadn’t made her first time-jump. She was curled on the couch of her cozy Brooklyn apartment with a globe on her coffee table for ideas of where (and when) to go. Her planner was open to the current month, February, which happened to be her Birthday month, and why she had rented the device. But now, looking at the calendar, Natalia was suddenly furious. How could she not have taken into consideration that she rented the time machine during the shortest month of the year? A whole two to three days shorter than any other month. She would have to call the company to check if she could keep it for a full 30 days – unless… She frantically reached for the time machine, adjusted the dials, pressed the button, and held her breath.

Trapped Until Dawn
There weren't always dragons in the Valley ... They had appeared after what will be forever remembered as “The Rise.” When the emerald green scaly beasts rose from their sleep after millenniums of deep slumber underwater, the earth trembled. Grounds shook. The creatures’ first exhales erected fires that scattered along the coast before their massive bodies slithered to the skies. All that remained was destruction and panic.
