You marvel over the bustling micro metropolis that sits atop your desk. Glancing over it, you notice the crystal sitting at the city's edge, shimmering in the afternoon sun. Almost instinctively, you grasp it once again, feeling its cool hardness in your hand. Within your possession is some mystic artifact, able to shrink people, transport entire cities and who knows what else. Mulling over these thoughts as you caress the crystal, you think about the city, if it were even smaller, small enough to fit under your palm. Suddenly, light emanates from your hand, beams shooting out in all directions. The familiar flash bathes the room in a red glow once more as cosmic energy compounds the space in your bedroom. After a brief moment, you open your eyes, and to your shock, the city has shrunk further. What once took up your entire desk, now resides in an area no bigger than the cover of a pocket dictionary. Strangely, the shrunken figures of Jake and Eric have disappeared aswell. You frown, unsure of whether they had escaped during the light show and lean over the desk to investigate.
Screams echoed around the city of Satal. A monstrous being had overtaken the horizon, his size utterly incomprehensible to the terrified denizens. He had been big before, but now they were truly nothing to him. The entire city could fit under a single hand, so huge he seemed. Everywhere, chaos erupted. People did their best to escape the horror but there was little they could do. He was simply too huge, too monumental to be ignored. The giant stirred, his entire torso expanding into the horizon, his perturbed face replacing the sky. Truly, this was the endtimes.
You lean over to examine the area of your desk where your shrunken friends had once stood. There's nothing there except a few stray pieces of lint. You sigh, unsure of your next move, until something catches your eye. Down on the wooden surface of your desk, is a small, coloured speck, barely perceptible. You lean closer to see if perhaps your friends got caught in the flash and were shrunk further. After focusing for a minute, you let out a laugh. It was Jake and Eric all right, except now they were truly nothing. They barely passed a millimetre in size, if even. At this scale, they were probably no bigger than the denizens of the micro city. You smile evilly down at your former friends. You could easily kill them. All it would take is a press of your finger and they would cease to exist, reduced to nothing but a tiny smear on the vast surface of your desk. But for now, you're more interested in destroying the pathetic city that sits atop your desk. Besides it's not as if your "friends" will be able to escape now, not at their scale. You recline back in your seat and look down at the shrunken metropolis. You move your hand over the city, hanging it above them. It would be so easy to crush them all beneath it, you think to yourself. With this crystal, you've practically become a god.
