The details on this one are fuzzy- but I had a gonzo time loop story about an organization from the past that sends an assassin forward in time to kill Captain Chronos when he was a 7 at his childhood home. They need to do this because when he becomes an adult, Captain Chronos has the technology to go back in time and really destroys most of the organization. The problem for our assassin is that Captain Chronos perceives time as a separate dimension- meaning that he knows everything that's going to happen during his whole life, and can make changes accordingly for better results. Things don't end well for the first assassin, but the organization anticipated this and injected him with technology that kept a written journal of everything that happened to him, so they know the basics of everything up until the moment of death. So they send another one forward to try something different.
That's the prologue in broad strokes.
Chapter 1- Assassin 12 is perched in a tree. Our story is told from his perspective in the first person. Next to him is Assassin 11, and 12 is trying to convince him that he (meaning 11) is doomed if he's going to sneak into the crawl space and just open fire through the floor boards of the kid's bed. 11 is suspicious and runs towards the house anyways, convinced that 12 is trying to sabotage him. 12 grimaces as 11 bounds off, and is surprised at the tapping on his shoulder. "I'm number 14," the woman says, "And I really need you to think twice about what you're doing."
The story places out as a puzzlebox that unfolds.Statistics: Posted by Kyle — Tue Oct 17, 2017 4:32 pm
