The Cosmic Misadventures of Marvin S. Berry – Prologue
Arthur was bored. Mind-numbingly bored. He hated monitor-duty. Waiting and watching. Watching and waiting. All for nothing. There hadn’t been a serious threat to Time for years. Not since the early 19th century, anyway. Arthur had only been a lab-tech at that time, and had to get his stories second-hand. He had vowed to become a Inspector so that one day he could be the one doing exciting things like fighting paradox and saving the Time-Space Continuum from being ripped asunder.
Instead, he had done little more than become a glorified security guard. Every now and then, something would come up. Some scientist would accidentally create a worm-hole in his lab for 2/100ths of a second or some astronaut would lose a minute or two of time while in orbit. Events like that were easy to manage. Easy and boring.
