Invention

Experiment
The player enters the storm of life of people joined the lab . his long arms theatrically portability characteristic . his loud bass voice broke the quiet spotted tick of the laboratory computer keyboard .
" It is ! I stop being a player . I will not stomp feet, whistling audience whistles and contempt ! what I need it ? You were right . best to work alone in a laboratory without becoming the mercy of fickle audience. "
Ami small thin guy , late thirties and already balding middle Galgaltho , just figure the typical nerd . took off his spectacles , turned his chair toward life " Hello to you too , live . What happened this time? "
Ami looked at his friend . Life seemed clearly agitated , but was always upset than anything .
As he presented his life story dramatically the ability to use the big body and the flexible face expression to describe different moods and characters . "I appear play an important role. At one point I was standing center stage when Rose appears as the maid came to me with her ​​funny Russian accent . " here he mimicked the Shoshana so peoples can actually see the fragile little rose is going to forget him man growing dimensions . " For a moment I forgot my lines , and stood on the stage did not stutter as usual . The audience began to laugh stomp his feet . What got me stress and I could not continue . Rose is saved me Walther replica of her own " perfect imitation of the Rose " Well I understand you on your way! " and returned to his voice natural " and took me off the stage . "
"Moments like that happen to every player." Mumbled and continued his work with me indifference.
" It's not the whole story. When the play ended, the crowd got all the players clapping hands, but when I entered the code to the public , they moved whistles contempt . "
For a moment he wanted me to comfort his friend as usual some flattering words . He knew that living calm down , but instead sunk in thought .
" Well ! you have nothing to say about it ? " Thunder life .
Ami shook himself and said " Do you want to change this unpleasant moment? "
Life looked at his friend and said " Of course , it's not a moment I want to remember , but that probably sealed the moment of my career as a player. "
People still speak slowly out of reflection " is not . I ask if you really want to delete this moment? "
Life looked at him do not understand .
Ami turned back to the computer and said " I've got my new invention I'd like to try it . This invention is a Teifrcourdre of reality . I will repay you for a moment the confusion and you say your lines properly and if the invention would work everything will be fine. "
Life was still looking vacantly at his friend " Are you telling me you can fix a reality? "
" Yes that's the idea. "
People asked when was his entry on stage , much time was ticking on his computer " had not planned friendly application that I must enter data such awkwardly " apologized , even though that life did not matter .
Suddenly he saw live video of the first act in the play . " Hey , when you took the show? "
Ami muttered " did not copy " endless ticking continued his fast .
" Or , here ! " life considered himself go to the center stage is stuttering .
" This is the part "?
" Yes . You should not have to shoot him eternal shame. "
Again muttered something that sounded like my people " did not copy ", froze the image , said life Microphone instructed to repeat the life of his lines with the mark he would give him .
Not believe but amused , life has collaborated his lines and said loud and clear .
Me tinkering on the computer and then the device , lying naked , all the electronic guts are visible , on the table nearby .
Returned to the computer and press ENTER .
Nothing happened .
Ami sighed and said " now just have to wait for responses. "

Success

The next day the phone rang at the bedside of life . Life was used to sleeping until late afternoon hours , awoke with a start .
A look at the clock told him it was six in the morning , long before the time that people should stand up straight .
Mumbling " who the idiot calling at this hour , who even awake at this hour ? " He picked up the phone and mumbled " Yes ? " sleepy .
" Well ... " he heard the voice of the people, " how the reviews? "
" To do this you wake me up at night? "," Since when do reviews on a show of interest you? "
"You read the papers!" Declared me out Matronne.
Abruptly returned to the bitter memory of the show . " Why are you kidding me? "
" No, really, look at the paper there is no trace of your stutter , in fact the critics praise you. "
It woke the whole life . He put his bare feet slippers shuffled to the door ,
Grabs the paper rolled out of the door , open it section ' Culture ', and call forward the criticism on the play .
Apparently the show was not a visitor , he thought the sight of praise on him .
Life threw on some clothes and raced himself nearby kiosk , where bought all the newspapers and see them on the spot .
No one mentioned his stutter hint the audience's boos , not even a critic who hated him Konstter .
Life returned home and picked up a phone wondering peoples . " What's wrong with me ? "
Shining happy people voice said " You see successful invention . we deleted the stuttering "
" Wait , I come to you . "
Fifteen minutes later the two friends were living he said " I do not understand how you did it , but it's fantastic ! "
Ami was happy with his eternal coffee cookie jar is open , it offered respect for life now , to celebrate the success .
Life looked at his friend and said, " This invention can change history . "
Ami did not think to change history . He thought more along the lines of the proof of his theory about the nature of time . " Can you imagine what a tremendous importance that science has proven ? "
Haim nodded " yes . you are guaranteed the Nobel Prize , but do you not think there's much more than the Nobel Prize ? "
Ami laughed " you disparage the Nobel Prize ? Since when do you disparage awards at all? "
" Oh no , I'm not disrespectful , but if you can change reality why do not you change reality transcend the Holocaust ? "
" It's too dangerous . Such a change can bring unexpected results. "
Life looked at his friend , remembers his grandparents were murdered in the Holocaust along with so many Jews asked, " What could be worse than the Holocaust? "
Ami refused . It took another week of nagging conviction . It took another week of my people made ​​software improvements , another month and a historical investigation of what needs to change to prevent the Nazi rise to power .
Finally they were ready .
Ami rolled his time until he found the time and place you want .
Life made ​​the change using his ability as an actor impersonator Ami press ENTER .

Change

Not felt any change in the laboratory except for the disappearance of people .
Strange-looking man sitting in front of Chinese life looked at the question .
Life , do not get asked him where my people .
At first the Chinese looked at him without understanding and then wonder , " Do you know Hebrew ? " The Chinese said the vehicle .
" I'm learning languages ​​extinct hobby, " he added .
Life thought it was another one of the peoples of sick tricks . tricks attributed peoples twisted sense of humor with me .
" Of course what I did not speak Hebrew ? I Jew ? "
" First you have a Jew . holocaust did not kill you ? "
Oh dear , thought the life of invention disappointment ! " Ami could not change history and hide the Nazis ? "
Chinese raisin with bald big glasses , glanced at in life . cracks his eyes tight even through the magnification of lenses reflecting .
" I do not understand Hebrew well . Who Nazis ? "
" Where do you live ? these Nazi Germans killed the Jews ! "
" Germans ? not , how come ? Muslims and Jews killed "
The Chinese looked at life like a madman .
" Well where is my people ? I want to talk to him "
" Ami ? Who me ? "
Life thought it was already ridiculous , " my people , my friend invented ' Teifrcourdre reality , here in the lab ! "
Chinese small feet do not reach the floor looked up into the high life at suspiciously .
" My invention knows where ? "
Life was a vague feeling in his stomach that something terrible had gone wrong .
" You invented the Teifrcourdre that can change reality ? "
" Yes . I am a new theory of the time I discovered and proved , " replied the little Chinese tribute to the next table full of electronic equipment .
" You mean that all Jews were destroyed again ? "
" I do not know , again , Muslims and all Jews killed. "
Sinai urged despair of life " you must tell the history to save the Jews ! "
The Chinese looked at life coldly , and said in what might be considered polite Chinese " very sorry , not allowed to change history . not for the Jews . "
Returned to his computer .
