The Danger Shop didn't look like an Eastern European graveyard this week, but the desks had been moved to the sides in favour of a few odd looking things in the centre of the room. A phonebooth, a Victorian looking chair, and an eighties sportscar took up most of the space in the room, and all three of them seemed to have very odd wires and attachments and levers added to them.

The Professor leaned against the hood of the car while he waited for the class to arrive. "Good afternoon, students!" he said, as soon they had filled into the room. "Today's class subject is time travel. Time travel involves using a special device -- as such the ones behind me -- to puncture through the folds in the space time continuum to take yourself to a different time and occasionally a different place. There are many different methods of achieving this, many of which involve the use of a machine to take you from time to time."

He grinned malevolently at the class. "But the best way to learn about time travel is to throw you right into the deep end." A passed out a number of sealed cards. "Each of you have been given a different objective. You will pick one of these three time machines, and try to fix it. Luckily, this is entirely a holographic simulation, so you can't permanently damage the timeline. Try not to mess up the space-time continuum too much."

Up and ready!

"Yes. Lorraine. That wasn't so hard, was it?" Victor asked.

He hoped that Storm hadn't managed to screw his part up yet.

George frowned and pushed his bangs out of his face. "Oh, but she'd never go out with me. She's so pretty and smart and perfect, and I'm ... me."

"Let's give my... acquaintance there a chance to convince her otherwise," Victor said. A death threat would probably work with her, too, though.

Johnny gave her a charming, winning smile. "Did you know he's got the hots for you? Think you ought to go and talk to him." Johnny was so smooth. Maaaaan!

Lorraine looked at George dubiously. "Really?" she asked.

He tone of voice implied that she'd rather talk to Johnny.

"Seriously. I mean, can't you see the way he is avoiding making eye contact with you? He's totally into you."

Lorraine looked less sceptical this time, and somewhat curious. "And your sure about that?"

"Sweetheart, do I look like a guy who doesn't know what he's talking about in situations like these?"

Lorraine seemed to consider that. "Well..."

"Time's wasting, doll. You've got the guy sweating bullets." Johnny was sure of it.

Victor turned to the boy he had just assaulted and said, "Go talk to her now or I may still have need to kill you."

George let out another whimper and hurried over to Lorraine as though he was being chased by Darth Vader himself. "L, Lorraine?" he said, tying to hard to be brave. "I'm your density. I mean, your destiny."

Lorraine smiled at the oddly earnest compliment. "Oh, that's kind of sweet."

Maybe she should think about giving him a chance.

Victor walked over to Storm. "If you had taken any longer I would have told her you had syphillis," Victor said. "I still may if this doesn't go right."

"I'm not going to threaten the poor girl," he whispered low. "And you didn't exactly use tact, you know?"

"It worked, and it did so faster than your method," Victor said. "He was more afraid of me than he was of talking to a girl. He now knows that there are bigger things to worry about than his social life. It'll be a valuable lesson to him in the future."

"Right, dad," Johnny snickered. "So... is our work done here?"

"I believe so. Let's return to the car," Victor said, walking off towards the Delorian.
