Oh boy, have I got a story for you! So, one time, my pal Gary, Shania, Bruno, and I went camping in the woods behind a military base in southern Maryland. We were having a blast, making s’mores, and telling ghost stories around the campfire.

The next morning, we woke up to a super foggy atmosphere, but we thought nothing of it and packed up our stuff to head back home. However, as we started walking back, something felt off. The path back seemed different, and when we finally reached the road, the number was wrong.

Shania spoke up and said, “I don’t think we are in Maryland anymore.” And that’s when things got weird. After walking for about an hour, we arrived at my house, but our key wouldn’t work. When we knocked on the door, a person who looked exactly like me answered. And that’s when we noticed that we all had doppelgangers too.

We were all freaking out, even our doppelgangers, but one of the Shanias suggested we sit down and talk about what was happening. It turned out that a new particle accelerator that had been inaugurated that week at the military base could had accidentally transported us to an alternative dimension. As we conversed with our doppelgangers, we found out that in this dimension, the USA never existed, we were still British colonies. California and Texas were still part of Mexico, and worst of all, pizza was never invented because Italians never came to New York City! Can you imagine?

My doppelganger came up with a crazy plan to send us back and it involved breaking into the base and activate the Particle Accelerator while we camped in the woods, just like how we got here in the first place. But Shania suggested we ask for help to the authorities instead. We all laughed at her because, come on, this is straight out of a sci-fi movie! The government would keep us for testing and experiments.

So, we all drew up a plan to get into the lab in the base. Surprisingly, the security was pretty lax in this universe, but we eventually made it to the particle accelerator room. Unfortunately, none of us knew how to operate it, and Gary ended up activating an alarm. Suddenly, we were surrounded by soldiers, and a mean-looking guy asked us what we were doing there.

We spilled the beans and told them everything, and to our surprise, they just laughed and asked us why we didn’t call the number listed in the phone book. Apparently, there was a help line for issues caused by the base’s experiments. They called one of the scientists to operate the machine, and he laughed and told us that they thought they had calibrated the accelerator to stop bringing people from the other side, but he knew how to send us back.

After we got back, we all agreed to keep this crazy adventure to ourselves, but I couldn’t help but write it all down in my diary. And the best part? When we got back, we had the most epic pizza party ever!
