Character Study 2

She arrive at the Teleport with her fiance Josh sometime in the afternoon. They both stared at the teleportation area nervously, questions building rapidly but none could escape their lips. Jasmine turned to her fiance and smiled, though leaving his side once more pained her, she knew this is what she wanted. What she needed. She kissed him sweetly then put her forehead against his and closed her eyes. They held each other for a few minutes feelings as if no amount of time was enough. They looked into each others eyes to transmit words they could not seem to muster out the courage to speak and both smiled at each other. Josh's face gave her a warming confirmation that eased her mind and gave her the strength to part from her loving fiance once more. She had nothing to worry about, she had time traveled many times before. She stepped into the teleporter beam and waved to Josh one final time. A florescent blue light illuminated her body and she was off.  While swimming through space and time her teleportation device began to spark rapidly. The electricity burned her skin and caused the loophole through time to glitch and shake in a painfully sharp way. Jasmine closed her eyes and braced herself for impact. The loophole soon disappeared and she found herself falling from the sky, it didn't take her long to realize what year she was in. As her acceleration down to earth increased, Jasmine began to position herself to make the impact as light and painless as possible. She closed her eyes and seconds later heard a loud crack and felt a sharp pain shoot up her arm and leg. When Jasmine opened her eyes, she realized that she was in a bush, covered in smoke and soil. Her teleportation crystal had broken into miniature pieces. "Dammit!" She swore loudly. "I can't contact Josh or travel through time as long as my crystal is damaged." She continued to swear with the foulest words she could think of then began to think of ways to fix her device. A stick broke behind her, she swung around quickly and prepared for a fight. Jasmine profiled the group of people standing in front of her; a beach bum, a klutz and some teenage couple who looked as if they were about to elope. "Great." She thought to herself, "I'm stuck in the year 2013 with a bunch of inexperienced humans who probably haven't even learned of the science behind time travel." Jasmine stepped out the bush then walked towards them and sighed loudly. She had no idea how she was going to get home.
