Visit Of The Time Traveller
by Paul McCann
Some young lads from Sailor Town found him lying on the ground at the docks and they asked him where he was from . He said he was a time traveller who had returned from the future when Corporate bosses had taken over and he wanted to tell how life had changed in the future.
He went on to tell the story about how people in the future had been divided into three groups . The Bosses , the minders and the workforce crews .
The bosses governed over all while the minders controlled the streets and camps were workforce crews were kept as prisoners . The work camps had been built in grounds where once schools and playing grounds had stood .
The people were turned into slaves in most towns and cities and they had to provide for the needs of the powerful corporate rulers and the minders who worked for them .
.There weren’t any free people in the world anymore after the factories and schools had been closed . The old people were removed from their homes and sent to termination zones . The rest were sent to the work camps and became prisoners of the Minders who moved in and rounded up thousands and thousands of ex-workers and placed them inside the PWC’s - Prison Work Camps , that were established all over the world .
At first mania had erupted with everyone who had become prisoners however the Minders used there sedations gases and mind controlling drugs to stop the stop
Escalation of violence against the corporate takeover in countries all over the world and already it was too late because the new regime had taken over the world .
There were no arguments or answers only acceptance of what had happened
There was nothing left to do but comply however there were a few groups that had formed with an idea to try to make a change and they were watching and waiting for the right time to commence their revolution and take over control again .’
The forced labour that had been introduced by the Bosses brought an iron hand environment with no protection for workers who were unfairly treated from the greedy corporations who manipulated the work force and refused to pay wages or provide medical help for injuries sustained in the work they had to do .
Workers had no holidays and there was a growing anxiety and anger rising with whispers of a revolt beginning to creep into the work place .
The Minders had been instructed to make empty promises to settle the unrest but after the promised extra food and work break promised were not given there was more disappointment and frustration for the work crew population .
It wasn’t long when some Minders started to have a little compassion for the work crews and a small group within their organisation joined to assist the work crews but they were quickly rounded up and thrown into a new complex known as Long Stay Units that had been built to imprison any of the Minders who had betrayed the Bosses and their world domination ..
After this , other Minders were upset about their colleagues who were locked up and now there were hundreds of Minders joining the underground ranks of the Work crews and they all had a serious problem with the Bosses because of what
was happening . .
Now it was the right time to reclaim freedom for the workers and lead the way for the world to join in with the restoration of civil rights for humanity once more .
Jagger and a handful of the insurgents within the workforce had joined together with a large number of Minders who decided it was the right time to start the revolution .
It started with an eruption of violence in the PWC’s and along side them were the Minders with their electronic weapons and sedation gases . This new organization that had been formed was called the Zone Striker Force . They went in hard and fast and it didn’t take long before a change was occurring . The work camps around the their roles .
There were many Minders in the uprising who were either killed or put into chains in lock up cages around the work camps .
All of the products that used to be manufactured by the work crews had stopped and there was no more work being done .
The Zone Strike Forces s had now taken control of the work camps and all around the world new districts had been set up with a new commencement of work to be done building for the future and locking up the Bosses putting them out of existence and destroying their cruel regime once and for all . . In a short matter of time the work camps had been demolished and new homes were built to accommodate all of the free men and women of the world .
Governments around the world were installed by the power of the people and there was a lot of work still to be done . Even though it was hard , it was well worth the effort because the workers were no longer tools for corporate organisations that had abused them for many years .
The free men and women of the world had built prisons now for their former dictators who were now helpless and too frightened to disobey orders from their previous captives .
Freemen and women worked together building loyalty and good work ethics , the chains of their slavery had been replaced by bonds of courage and strength .
The large stately homes of that were once occupied by the Bosses were turned into schools with parks and playgrounds .
The combined wealth of all the corporations were collected and place in a community bank to be shared amongst all of the free men and women of the world .
The greedy corporate rulers lived as prisoners in cells and were treated fairly by their guards.. In a free society there was compassion for anyone or anything in the new world where the corporate class were now manufacturing goods that were useful for all the human race .
From Monday to Saturday the new work force were busy working and had every Sunday free to do their own thing in their new and strange world around them .
I am here in this moment to tell you to do everything you can to prevent this future from happening .
Now there is time to make plans to police and prevent large Corporations from controlling the world . You need to protect freedom and basic human rights before greedy and powerful people take it away . At that moment the time traveller disappeared out of sight .
The handful of young lads looked at each other and said .
What can we tell people ?”
“Buck Roger’s lives “
“No one’s going to believe us “
“ Then say nothing “
.
The End

Excellent!
Excellent! The best time-travel story is still the long short story "The Time Machine" by HG Wells, a gripping story and like in true Wells style, great imagination, very prophetic. Also Wells's "The Sleeper Wakes". I take it you like Poe also?
I find it amusing that the story is about the future and written in past tense, nothing wrong with that!
Good story, well written well told & Nolan
