Gun in the Hands of a Child

author: microtiny

You head another couple of blocks towards town. All of the houses around here are virtually brand new, and being that it is Saturday and still rather early, you figure it would be relatively safe to give this device a test.

You have to test it. There is sweat rolling down your neck as your anticipation of seeing this device in action grows to feverish levels. You pull your car over to the side of the road and park it. Turning off the engine you look around. Nobody anywhere. Not even a bird or a butterfly in the air. This would work. All the houses have big trees in the front and they couldn't see you on the road even if they were trying.

So you reach over into the passenger seat and take the matter transposer off the backpack. You look it over and see an activate button and a scale dial. The dial interacts with a digital display that starts at 1 = 1. Moving the dial clockwise the digital number goes to 1.01, then 1.02, 1.03, and up. As long as you move it, it keeps increasing by a tiny fraction. Moving it counterclockwise, it goes 0.99, 0.98, 0.97, etc.

So you move it counterclockwise until it is at 0.10. Looking out the window about nine feet away, you see a newly planted cypress tree that stands about six feet high. Shaking with anticipation, you aim the device. Depressing the activate button, a blue colored stream of electricity arcs from the matter transposer. The tree is enveloped in a bluish white shimmering light. And in the blink of an eye it closes in on itself and appears to vanish. Looking down at the ground you see a perfectly round hole with a seven inch tree sitting in the middle.

"Whoa, this is for real." you say to yourself. A couple of seconds later a black rottweiler charges out from behind the trees barking all the way as it approaches to within several feet of your car.

You have the following choices:

1. You shrink the bothersome dog.

2. You drive off wondering how it works on people.

3. You are met by the dog's owner.
