Life Outside PLT1

BASED ON A TRUE STORY

Now here’s a story from back when I was 5 years old.

I was at a sporting field at the time with my friend Marvin, it was a clear and warm day so naturally we were throwing rocks at each other, a pebble of mine struck Marvin on the head which amused Wang who quipped “man, you just shot Marvin in the face” I didn’t know what the hell he meant though, nor did it make sense in any context now that I think about it – it was 1991, Pulp Fiction hadn’t even come out at that time.

Wang was an old man that hung around the park alot, he was an elderly asian gentleman with a slight moustache and over his normal-people clothes he wore a dark-blue jacket with metal shoulder pads on the exterior of it, nobody really knew who he was or where he came from but the adults seemed to trust him so I never thought much of it.
Anyways, back to the story – As Marvin brushed off his cheek and looked back at me while preparing his shot, the sky darkened. Everyone stopped mid-play and looked to the sky – we saw a smoking vehicle catapaulting itself over the horizon, it wasn’t until it drifted closer that we saw what it was – a penis-shaped shuttle – and it was falling out of the sky.

The penis-shaped shuttle crash-landed at the far side of the field with momentum, dragging an earthy brown mess across the grassy field before the penis-shaped shuttle disappeared behind it’s own smoke I stared into the cockpit and I saw Wang, but not our Wang; this one didn’t have a moustache – I guess he was younger. Old Wang rushed over to the crash site and took off his jacket, fanning the smouldering wreckage he parted the smoke and the broken, crawling figure of young Wang emerged; old wang rushed over yelling nonsense and young Wang frantically took his hand with a bloodied one of his own, looked old Wang in his eye and intejected “YOU HAVE TO GO BACK – TO THE FUTURE.”
