York 1981 Mission

==Background==
Michael Wilson, aged 17, was in an interracial relationship with Tracey Smith in 1981. On the evening of 12th June 1981, Michael and Tracey were attacked by a gang of teenagers, and in the resulting struggle, Michael's eight-year-old sister, Joy, was stabbed and died almost immediately. The gang were never identified or apprehended. 
==Infraction==
History changed when a quantum terrorist hit Joy with a car earlier in the day, dying in hospital later that evening and Michael being stabbed himself four days later, and dying.
==Mission Outline==
Tom Burt, backed up by Sarah Cunnington and Zoey Hallett, successfully intervened and saved Joy from being hit by the car, though the would-be murderer somehow Jumped both into and out of the car with precision, thereby not only avoiding capture but also being alerted to the team's presence.
Assuming their target would still attempt to change history by going after Michael personally, the team reassembled at Scarcroft Green, where Tom was able to intervene once again, allowing history to play out as before. However, the quantum terrorist fought him off and fled, and although he was persued by Ethan Taylor, the man apprehended Ethan and took him captive, hoping to use him as leverage.
Iulya Dalca managed to track him using Ethan's quantum trace program coupled with Google Maps, and Sarah Jumped with the team to Ethan and his abductor's location, whereupon their target - later identified as Brandon Wood - was finally apprehended and arrested.
==Repercussions==
With the timeline restored, Joy died just as she always had, and Michael continued to live on to at least 2023. However, a later infraction, seemingly focussing once again on Michael, would later reveal to the team that the ultimate target was not Michael at all, but in fact his not-yet-born daughter, Esther Wilson ("York").
