This is delightful. You negotiated time and travel beautifully plausible. Too bad the fix didn't work. Heck, I wanted to go too! Great job on this story. You deserve to win!

Thanks for killing the mosquito, even if for pretend! This is a great entry for the contest! I wish you luck!

'Our elite team of leapers' --- I loved that phrase!

'...smelled of llama.' Hahahha

Oh, if only those mosquitoes had NOT made the trip!! Enjoyed!!!

A very intriguing and interesting item for the Quantum Leap contest - with color and detail suggesting the era - and then the almost imperceptible movement that changed the course of history

Your story was very interesting. I felt like I was watching an episode of the show, 'Quantum Leap'. You drew me in quite well and held my interest right up to the end. Then you surprised me with an unexpected twist. LOL! I like the idea of getting rid of mosquitoes. I'd also throw in fleas, ticks, scorpions, and flies, for my part. LOL! I'm sure God has a purpose for all of these insects. But I'm just not sure what it is. And don't even get me started on rats. You did a great job with this tale!

    Lol. Yeah, I couldn't have him killing off all those little monsters we hate. Haha. Thank you for the fantastic review and generous stars, writer. I'm glad you liked this silly little story.

Well done, I liked this very interesting analogy of how the mission was excepted and carried out by a "quantum leader," and subsequently built the mighty ark, took in all the animals, but in this version, he saves mankind from diseased damnation, well done, good luck, fabulously imaginative, blessings, Roy

    Thank you for the fantastic review, Roy. He really actually went through all of this just so there wouldn't be mosquitos now. I just took the ending a little over the top. Lol. I really appreciate the generous stars, friend. I'm glad you liked my little story. Have a great weekend.

This work has reached the exceptional level

So glad I saved a sixer for this. There are only two things I hate. I HATE to be cold (that's why I live in Florida) and I HATE mosquitoes. I am allergic to them. I don't get mosquito bites. I get mosquito welts. Large ones. I never go out without dousing myself in bug spray. I would have erected a bronze statue to this leaper for his mankind contribution.

This is a great little story that is very funny. Well written with a hilarious ending. I loved it. Extremely well done! Lynda

    Haha. Yes, I hate those little buggers too. I think we'd all be better off without them. Lol. Someone mentioned that different species might go extinct because the blood suckers are their food. I'd have to say, "Oh well." Lol. Bummer about the welts. Sorry to hear that. Thank you so much for the fantastic review and giant sixer, Lynda. So far, it seems you're the only one that found the ending humorous like I had intended. What can you do? I dearly appreciate the gracious rating and kind comments, L. I'm glad you liked this silly piece. Thank you again. I hope you have yourself a wonderful weekend.

    Any thyme. And here I was going to tell you to have a wonderful weekend too. Two great minds... : ~ O

    Haha. Love the smiley face. I changed one word of the ending. I think people were reading it as mankind being saved from disease the mosquitos were going to bring. Hopefully people will actually get it now. Lol

    Another classic post. Have fun with it this weekend. Good luck with the family. You get to show off all your work. So proud of you! 👍

I am intrigued by the agency M.A.S.Q.U.E. the narrator works for and how quickly you introduced him and his mission. I also like how he was reduced to just his subconscious to get him back in time. Interesting that he could live 100 years and still work. A clever ending to your story I found most satisfying. Well done! Rod

    Thank you for the excellent review, Rod. Yeah, after he accomplishes him mission he comes back right where his life left off when first leaped. Lol. From what the bible and research says, it took nearly that long to build it. Noah was already 500 years old when he first started the project. Then lived like 300 more after. But, yes, I'm sure my guy was pretty tired when he got back. Lol. I really appreciate the generous stars, friend. I'm glad you liked this silly piece.

I think that you wrote a great and creative story! I enjoyed how the main character had leaped into Noah's body. You gave a view of Noah's Ark through the eyes of a Quatum Leaper which is very creative.

    Thank you for the excellent review, Jeffrey. That is actually the requirements of the contest, that you quantum leap into someone of a historical event and change things. I really appreciate the generous stars, friend. I'm glad you liked this piece.
