hospital he hadn’t aged. I guess the day the canoe flipped you must have been sucked through the um wormhole, I arrived here just ten minutes after you did. The guy brought me back here and then the other guy that had come to the hospital was watching over you, he’s a doctor, well a pathologist but he saved your life and well here we are.”
Jane only had one thought in her mind. “So when are we?”
“Today is 2 nd November 1963.” Jane’s jaw dropped.
“So how do we get back?”
“I don’t know if we do get back Jane, I think we might be stuck here.”
“We can’t be stuck here what about my mum?”
“Your mum probably hasn’t even been born yet.”
“So I might never see her again is that what your telling me and if I do I’ll be what in my sixties?”
“Well maybe I don’t know I only got here yesterday but well like I said we aren’t alone we are with these two guys one of them is called David Lewis, that’s the one that saved your life. Since he got sucked through the wormhole he hasn’t needed to sleep and the other guy is called Bobby Stinson he hasn’t aged and he was transported to the day that Lincoln died. Apparently the wormhole can have sort of unpredictable side effects and we have both slept maybe we are like Bobby.”
“You mean we are immortal?”
“Well I don’t know, I don’t think he’s immortal well in fact I know he’s not but I guess unless he dies in an accident or is killed by someone he will just kind of carry on living.”
Jane had so many questions she didn’t know which was the most pressing. “So we are in one of these men’s homes?”
“Yeah I think it’s Bobby that owns the place but they both stay here.”
“So where does he live Inverness?”
Faraday hadn’t even thought about where they were, he was too busy trying to explain the when. “Um no we well we are actually in Dallas, Texas.”
Jane’s jaw would have dropped had her mouth not already been gaping. “Texas! How the hell did we get to Texas?”
“I have no idea I mean how did we get to 1963?”
“So what do these men do?”
“Well like I said David is a forensic pathologist, he works at Parkland Hospital. Bobby well he’s a lawyer but he works for Meyer Lansky.”
Jane’s expression was blank. “Who’s Meyer Lansky?”
“Meyer Lansky! Are you serious you’ve never heard of him?”
Jane shook her head.
“He’s the old mafia guy, essentially he’s one of the most powerful men in America we think he is involved with the JFK assassination.”
“The JFK assassination, wait when did that happen again?”
“It happens in twenty days time.”
“Twenty days time and we are living with a mobster probably involved in the murder! Are you kidding me Faraday?”
“No I’m not kidding but Bobby isn’t a mobster he’s a lawyer, he tried to save Lincoln the day he was assassinated and ended up getting stabbed. He’s a good guy! He has agreed to help us save JFK.”
“You’re kidding right? How the hell are we going to save JFK?”
Faraday was silent he had no idea.
“Well?” Jane demanded.
“Well I don’t really know we um just think we need to try. Bobby is away in Vegas today meeting Meyer Lansky we were kind of thinking he would be able to get some information and we could use that to stop them. His grandfather is following Oswald.”
“His grandfather does he know about Bobby being his relation?”
“No his grandmother works with him too but neither of them knows.”
“So how can we change anything I mean sure maybe Bobby can have some influence but what can we do, some doctor and two history graduates?”
“I don’t know but David is desperate to change things he lost his wife the day he was sucked into the wormhole, she was pregnant. Bobby didn’t think we could change things he said whatever happened happened but we are going to try and then who knows maybe we can save David’s wife too. I mean we owe him
