I second the above. You need to delve deep into grammar, basic sentence structure, and punctuation.

I will crit the first sentence alone, because it bugged me. Make it: "Rick Marshal found himself spiraling round and round after going through the time portal".
 
Just say Dr Who. You don't need to specify "that uk tv show"
Most people who would read a time travel story are fully aware of the Timelord and his many regenerations.

Is his name spelled Marshal or Marshall ? You've used both in your extract

I'll leave it to the Mods to explain, but check the rules thread here. Specifically

"4) Before posting your excerpt, please make sure it is as free of spelling and grammatical error as you can possibly make it. While members are more than willing to correct these errors, an excerpt that is riddled with simple errors gives the impression that the poster couldn’t be bothered doing that basic checking themselves, and will turn some critiquers away."

Your post has numerous very basic errors. Just to begin...

"jack .Rick marshal was now time traveling. he seen Holly travel in a skylon .he"

Should be...

"Jack. Rick Marshal was now time traveling. He had seen Holly travel in a skylon. He"

That's 6 super basic grammatical errors in 16 words. And that's before any of us start commenting on style and where to put commas. I'd suggest you tidy up the basics, re-post and then we can have a proper look at this.
 
I don't think he's been back on since the day after he got all the feedback. Hope he didn't get frightened away.
