A fiction story

By GayathriPublished 3 years ago 3 min read

It was the year 2187, and time travel had become a reality. The world was a very different place than it had been in the early 21st century. Technology had advanced beyond anything that could have been imagined, and society had evolved to the point where there were no longer any wars, no poverty, and no need for anyone to suffer.

But even in this perfect world, there were still those who longed to change the past. One such person was a young man named Jack. Jack was a time traveler, and he had a mission. He wanted to go back to the year 1963 and prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Jack had always been fascinated by the Kennedy assassination. He had studied every detail of that fateful day, from the location of the shots to the movements of Lee Harvey Oswald. He had read countless books and articles about the event, and he had even watched the Zapruder film dozens of times.

But Jack didn't just want to be an observer. He wanted to change history. He was convinced that if he could prevent Kennedy's assassination, the world would be a better place. He believed that the course of history would be altered for the better, and that humanity would be spared some of the tragedies that had befallen it in the decades since Kennedy's death.

So Jack set about preparing for his journey. He spent months studying the technology of the time machine, and he practiced using it until he was sure that he could operate it safely and effectively. He gathered as much information as he could about the events of November 22, 1963, and he devised a plan to prevent the assassination.

Finally, the day arrived. Jack stepped into the time machine and set the controls for Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963. As he traveled back through time, he felt a mix of excitement and trepidation. He knew that he was about to do something that had never been done before, and that the consequences of his actions could be enormous.

When he arrived in Dallas, Jack quickly set about putting his plan into action. He made his way to the Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald had fired the fatal shots at Kennedy. He knew that he had to prevent Oswald from getting to the sixth floor window, where he would have a clear shot at the motorcade.

As he waited outside the building, Jack saw Oswald approaching. He was carrying a large bag, which Jack knew contained the rifle that he would use to kill Kennedy. Jack knew that he had to act quickly.

"Excuse me, sir," he said to Oswald. "Can I help you with that bag?"

Oswald looked at him suspiciously. "No, thanks," he said, continuing on his way.

Jack followed him, keeping a safe distance. He watched as Oswald entered the building and made his way to the stairs. Jack knew that he had to act fast if he was going to stop him.

He ran up the stairs, taking them two at a time. He could hear Oswald's footsteps ahead of him. When he reached the sixth floor, he saw Oswald setting up his rifle.

"Stop!" Jack shouted. "Don't do it!"

Oswald turned to face him, surprised. "Who are you?" he asked.

"I'm someone from the future," Jack said. "I've come to stop you from killing President Kennedy."

Oswald laughed. "You're crazy," he said. "Get out of here before I call the police."

Jack knew that he had to act quickly. He lunged forward, trying to knock the rifle out of Oswald's hands. But Oswald was quick, and he managed to keep hold of it.

The two men struggled for a moment,
