they got out of the car and looked around.

"that way!" boom-boom pointed toward some buildings to the east.

linda grinned. "sure am glad they added the feature of placing a location along with the time for the 4th movie."


"i don't remember a 4th movie."

"they never made one, but they modified the delorean just in case."

"do you think we got this lucky in the other story option?" boom-boom asked.

"probably not."

"suckers."

"yeah."

they entered town and asked the first person they saw where the university is. "uh...uh, that way. that way!"

they thanked the strange man and walked down the lane. "what's his problem?"

boom-boom shrugged her shoulders. "beats me."

"stop right there, missy!"

they stopped--in surprise, not fear--as a man in what appeared to be an old-fashioned law enforcement uniform stepped in front of them.

"my name is not missy," boom-boom said flatly.

"neither is mine," linda said evenly.

"i don't care what you name is, lassie," the man said, er, levelly. "take off that weapon, lower it to the ground, and step back."

boom-boom looked at linda. "did he just call me a dog's name? and is levelly a word?"

"he most certainly did, and i have no idea."

"i have a permit to carry this weapon," boom-boom told him. "now, get out of my way, little man."

"women are not allowed to carry weapons, now do as i say or else!"

boom-boom looked at linda. "he did not just say that, did he?"

linda shook her head at the poor man. "you really are stupid, aren't you? why don't you run home to mommy and let us go about our business. we're in a hurry."

this prompted him to pull out his whistle and blow before walking up to grabbed boom-boom by the sleeve. linda rolled her eyes just as boom-boom's fist connect directly below his left eye.

"POW!"

footsteps sounded behind them. linda turned to see another lawman reaching for her. she raised her knee sharply into his groin.

"OOOF!"

the first man took a handful of boom-boom's hair, earning a sidekick to the knee.

"THUNK!"

"here comes another one!" linda pointed at a man sprinting toward them.

"give me your hands!"

boom-boom took linda's hands and swung her around. linda instinctively kicked out, the toe of her cowboy boot connecting with the man's temple, dropping him instantly.

"ZOWIE!"


boom-boom grinned. "i think that was more of a "KER-PLUNK!"

"let's run for it!"


they left the men groaning in the street as they ran toward the university. as luck would have it, the first building they entered happened to be the one that housed dr. bell's office. they took the stairs two at a time and burst into the office.

"holy voodoo, boom-boom!"
