A Trip Through Time:
Mr. Kangaroo Rat was hopping about in his cage, wishing that it was 6 feet tall and he could stretch his legs to their maximum. Two days beforehand he was shipped out to a testing lab in Portland Oregon. Mr. Rat had had enough of being locked up and missed his glory days of soaring through the air as he launched himself up off the ground with his hind legs. Jumping around trying to knock or break the cage-free he had finally managed to make the cage fall to the ground but ended up taking a longer fall than anticipated.
The cage broke open, and he slid across the tile floor. Without giving the scientists a chance to come back and discover him, he took off for a small air duct near the floor. At least he thought it was an air duct… he was sucked up instantaneously, and whirled around at an unhealthy speed until he was finally flung out of it, except he didn’t land on the grass outside the lab… instead, he flew directly over the back of an enormous bear, and landed with a light plop on soft dirt, turning a few somersaults. He situated himself, extremely dizzy from the adventure, he started to groom his fur, clearing his mind and senses from the haze of dizziness. He jumps up to get a sense of where he is and what’s going on, only to land on top of a Mama short-faced bear, the bear, annoyed with this rat, shakes him off. Mr. Rat seemed confused so he jumped again and the bear swatted him to the ground with its enormous paws. Terrified and in pain, Mr. Rat ran away. He continued on his journey into this new foresty place, adventuring, exploring and eventually dying due to his extensive injuries.
