A Knight's Timely Occurrence: A Romantic Sci-Fi Comedy Adventure

By Tico Pujals

Today is July 17, Dr. Eleanor Kim's birthday. She is an astrophysicist at a top-secret government laboratory where weird science occurs. Despite computer glitches, her anxiousness drives her to illegally turn on the new, unique, one-of-a-kind, space-time quantum computer, causing a portal to open randomly in 1453 in front of a chivalrous knight who is about to die in the heat of battle. The portal saves his life but inadvertently sucks him into the wormhole flashing him 571 years into the present day of July 17, 2024, on the sandy shore of a mountain lake in the state of New Mexico. Claire, a top-secret lab nurse on a camping vacation nearby, finds him, realizes it's a lab mistake, treats his wounds, and helps him as a race against time develops to get the knight to the lab and back to his time before he develops cellular degeneration or be incubated.

But fate sometimes toys with situations, especially when it concerns the heart. In part two, the tale thickens as Claire whisks from the sun-baked mesas of New Mexico to the misty, cobblestone streets of Sir William's English town and lush manor. There, amid the research, a dashing young historian enters the scene, his eyes alight with the same passion for the history that sets charming Claire's heart aflutter. Together, they depart to Sir William's medieval manor as the historian unravels to Claire the mystery of Sir William's outcome and his lot in life. In the process, their journey becomes a dance of playful attraction, unraveling the knight's story detail by tantalizing detail as they entangle their hearts intimately in a maelstrom of flirtatious jabs and comic misunderstandings. What will happen to the historian and lonely Claire? Why did the knight travel through time? Why him? Why was Claire involved? Was it all just an unexplainable circumstance, or was it the preordained manipulation of someone playing Cupid behind the veil of time?
