Anthonyverse© Faith Lee

On earth one, in the city of Charlotte, North Carolina, an airplane is landing. A woman named Sergeant Faith Lee is returning home after several military tours across seas. She takes a bus from Charlotte to the city of Gastonia, where her family lives.

She exits the bus at a train station in downtown and walks the rest of the way home with her bag on her back. She arrives home and goes walking where she is greeted by a welcome home party.

“Surprise!” Everyone shouted in unison catching Faith off guard. Everyone claps and welcomes her home, and everyone greets her and she hugs everyone. She heads upstairs to her room and lays her back down. She looks at her medal of honor and puts it on her nightstand. She changes for the party and heads back down to mingle with everyone.

She comes walking up to her mom and dad where they talk with others.

“Hey there she is! Welcome home sergeant.” a man said, raising his cup.

“Haha thank you.” Faith smiled.

“So, now that your home. What do you plan on doing?” a lady asked.

“Oh, I’m not sure yet. But I can’t sit at home all day. I’ll probably go out and look for a job once I get settled in.”

“Oh, alright well. Welcome home Faith.”

“I’m so glad you made it back ok.” Her mom said.

“Dido, but we are very proud of your service.” her dad added.

(Next day)

Faith is up early and proceeds to head out.

She goes downtown to go shopping. Once she has everything she needs, she heads back outside checking her bag. Suddenly she hears “stop!”

She turns to look and sees a man come running down the road quickly with two cops behind him. She trips up the running man causing him to tumble hard. He gets up quickly and puts a gun to her face where she grabs his hand, disarms him, kicks him in the knee, then hits him with a follow up knee to the face. The officers quickly apprehend the assailant.

“Hey great take down miss... “

“Lee, Sergeant Lee.”

“Well thank you Sergeant Lee for your help and service as well.”

Faith nods in agreement and then goes about her business. The officers look at her in wonder as she leaves the scene. The officers take the assailant away and put him in the back of a police car.

They drive him to a facility that looks like a lab. The side of the building reads:

A.T.I.R.A LABS (Advanced, Technology and Intelligence Research Agency).

They haul him in and put him in a jail cell. They take off their police uniforms that reveal their true uniforms. One reads Agent Tench, the other reads Agent Jones.

Tench comes walking into the woman’s office. Her desk name plate reads: Tammy Turner Time Travel Director.

“Hello Miss. Turner. I was wondering if you’re still looking for Time Travel Agents?”

“Of course, why what’s up?”

“Well, I saw someone in the field today, I feel would make a great agent.”

“Really? Who?”

“Her name was Sergeant Faith Lee. She brought down Bloomberg, who was trying to change the stock market to his liking. I was thinking she may be a good candidate for it and we could use someone with military experience.”

“Ok… I’ll do some research on her and see what I think. Thanks Tench.”

Tammy types on her computer and brings up Faith’s military records and military awards as well as skills.

Later that day. Faith is making lunch when she hears knocking at the door. Her mother answers it.

“Greetings Mrs. Lee, my name is Tammy Turner. I’m with the GPD. Can I speak with Faith Lee please?” Tammy asked.

Faith comes walking to the door.

“Hello Sergeant Lee. I understand you are looking for a job. I have a great opportunity for you if you’re interested. Here's my card if you’d like to learn more. Thank you for your time.” Tammy smiled and she walked away.

“Already getting job offers, you really can’t sit still can you?” Her mother chuckled.

“Nope I can’t haha, lunch is almost ready if you want to go ahead and head to the kitchen.” Faith said.

“Oh ok thanks sweetie.”

Her mom leaves the room to the kitchen, she looks at the card and it reads an address linked to charlotte. She looks in confusion.

(Next day)

Faith leaves the house to go meet up with Tammy. She drives to a large industrial park where several warehouses are. Finally she arrives at the location and the building reads. A.T.I.R.A LABS.

She pulls up to the gate where she is greeted by a soldier carrying a rifle.

“Can I help you?” the guard asked.

“Yeah this Tammy Turner gave me this card and…”

“Go down this path and make a left. You find her office building.”

“Oh ok thank you.” Faith replied as she followed the path to the office and parks.

When she goes into the building, Tammy is already waiting for her.

Stopped here for part 2:

“Welcome Sergeant to Atira Labs.” Tammy greeted.

“Atira labs?” Faith replied in wonder.

“Advanced Technology and Intelligence Research Agency. Come. I’ll explain.”

Tammy motioned for Faith to follow.

“Here at Atira, we study, and create advanced technology for use for speciality groups across the world and sometimes the galaxy. It just depends. So, with what you heard so far. Would you be interested in being an Agent of Atira?” Tammy asked.

“I might. What will I be doing?”

“I’m glad you asked. Come, I will show you.”

They walk to a large room with many stargate-like devices in the room. Gabrielle looks in shock.

“Oh my God what is this!”

“This is Time Travel Police Division of Atira. The TTPD. Are you familiar with us from your time in the marines?”

“Yeah, I’ve heard of Atira back in Iran. But I thought it was a myth.”

“No, no Atira is quite real and not only are we constantly in the process of doing research and creating technology and other things, we also work with Extraterrestrials and planets throughout the galaxy. But only when Extraterrestrial affairs somehow involve time travel.”

They come to a gate and watch a monitor above the gate that shows an Agent pursuing someone.

“See this, this is in the year twenty forty, someone went into the future to get some stock tips and bring it back to this time to make a profit. If he does that, it could cause the stock market to crash. We can’t have that.”

“How are these… people able to time travel? Where are they getting the technology?”

“We don’t know… that is the problem. We know governments have the technology and know it is not available to the public, so how they’re getting the tech, we have no idea. Until we do, we can only try to prevent time altering events.”

Finally, the agent downs the perp. They cuff him, key on their arm computers and teleport back and exit out of the stargate with the guy in cuffs. Tammy turns to walk back to her office with Faith close behind.

They head in and sit down.

“So, what do you think? Would you like to Join the TTPD?”

“Well, it does seem interesting… and I do need a job. I accept.”

“Good, be here bright and early in the morning. We will explain more in depth tomorrow.”

Faith goes to walk out but is stopped by Tammy.

“One more thing sergeant. You can’t tell anyone about this job… It is a top-secret program. If word got out, all hell would break loose. Understand?”

Faith nods in agreement.

She arrives home where she is greeted by her mom.

“Hey hon, where did ya go?”

“Just went out job hunting. All I’ve ever done since I was eighteen is work. I wouldn’t be able to be cooped up in the house.”

“Haha I know… but how about some lunch. My treat.”

“Sounds good.”

They leave the house.

(NEXT MORNING - TTPD)

Faith comes walking in where she is met by Tammy.

“Hey, welcome to your first day. Now, let me explain the rules. Rule one, our sole purpose is to prevent massive changes in history, or future. Rule two, you can not let anyone know that you’re a time Travel Agent.”

“Can I ask why?”

“Of course, it is because time travel is not available to the public and if they knew time travel existed, they would do one of a few things. Panic, protest in the street, conspiracy theorists would be right, that’s one thing we want to avoid.”

“What is so bad about conspiracy theorists? I'm one, believe it or not and I see I am not crazy to believe because it obviously exists.”

“Yes, and you are an exception because you work for us now. Rule three, if at any point in a moment in history involves you, or someone of your past, present or future is involved in either timeline, you can not take on that case because you will have an emotional attachment that may cloud your judgment. Is that clear?”

“Yes, ma’am understood…”

“Good, come. We will get you your uniform.”

Tammy walks into a walk-in closet and grabs Faith a uniform, gun and badge and hands them to her.

“Here, you’ll need these before you go into the field, your uniform can take the shape of any timeline police uniform with a simple scan. Head to the dressing room and suit up.”

“Yes ma’am.”

Once Faith is dressed, she meets up with Tammy In the stargate time lab, they have a large monitor that monitors the timelines. Some agents come bringing a man with a shaved face, and shaved head. Faith glares at him as he glares at her. He removes his chains, knocks out one agent, he quickly draws a gun and holds the agent hostage.

“Don’t try to stop me…” the assailant spoke as he keys on a keypad and types in a year and destination which reads: august 6th, 1945. He slowly moves back towards the gate, knocks out his hostage and jumps through the gate. Faith looks in shock.

“We need to apprehend him now!” Tammy spoke power walking down the steps. Faith follows.

“What is his charge?”

“That is a Russian terrorist named Borus Sanduski from the year twenty fifty. He is going back in time to try and gain schematics for the atomic bomb to use to hold the world hostage in the future. We caught him in the future before he could succeed. Now he is trying again and he is now in the past. Congratulations Agent Lee. You have your first assignment. Go and bring him back here for trial. Take on the uniform of a world war two nurse in the Los Alamos National Laboratory, New Mexico. Good luck Agent Lee.” Tammy finished.

Faith changes her uniform to a nurse of the period and hurries to the gate. She teleports into the past where she winds up in the lady's bathroom of the base.

“Agent Lee, can you hear me?” Tammy called.

“Wait! What? How can I hear you in the past?” Faith asked.

“We have communication technology that works on the premise that past, present and future all exist simultaneously.”

“Oh, interesting.”

“Find Borus before he is able to obtain the schematics. That is your assignment. Good luck.”

Faith steps out into the hallway and proceeds to act casual as if she works there. She begins looking for the schematics office. She checks room for room but does not see any sign of schematics.

Somewhere in the building Borus arrives. He takes the gun and fires on scientists and soldiers. A nurse witnesses the event and sounds the alarm. Faith looks up in shock as she begins running to try and find Borus.

She hears gunshots somewhere in the building and follows them. She sees Borus go walking into a room and hurries to intercept him.

In the room are two scientists with the schematics.

“I’ll be taking those.” Borus spoke as he shot the two soldiers and left the scientist alive.

“Come to poppa.” Borus spoke as he grabs the schematics and prepares to go back into the future, but Faith shoots his time travel device from his hand, destroying it.

“You bitch!” Borus spoke as he opened fire on Faith and took cover. They exchange fire then Borus runs out of Ammo. Faith takes on her true uniform look and jumps kicks Borus into the wall knocking the schematics out of his hand. Faith picks them up and hands them to a scientist.

“Take these and get out of here now!” Faith demanded and the scientist left the lab in a hurry.

Borus Sanduski, you are under arrest for attempting to alter history. Come quietly. Do not resist.” Faith said.

“I will not go back without those schematics. Even if it means I have to kill you or die trying.” Borus glared and he charged Faith.

He shoulders blocks her into the wall and goes to kick her but she side steps his kick, breaks his leg, hits him in his throat and knocks him down with a roundhouse kick to the ground and hurries to put cuffs on him.

Back at Atira they watch in excitement as Faith wins the fight and has him in cuffs. She keys on her watch and takes Borus back into her present timeline to Atira where she is cheered on by her peers.

“Very impressive Agent Lee. Not bad for your first assignment. But keep in mind not all assignments will be this easy. Be ready at all times.” Tammy smiled.

“Yes Ma’am.” Faith smiled. As they drag Borus away, he looks at Faith and Grins. She glares at him with disdain.
