Elly and her big sister Sammy
had gone to visit a science facility
their mother worked at to give
their mom something she had forgotten
that Saturday morning.
The head of the facility was
an Asian-Japanese man and one
policy was to take off socks and
shoes.
The 2 sisters of course respected
this.
This place however always made
Elly bored and sleepy.
Elly snuck into a storage room and
fell asleep on what was seemingly
a pile of junk.
In her sleep she shifted and her
finger brushed a strange device
which whirred to life.
It was like a gun with a screen and
frisbee mounted to it.
The screen lit up.
“Transposer Model Alpha 2
Protocol standby awaiting
DNA Sample”
Elly shifted again a finger bumping
the sample receptor.
Suddenly a small prick she barely
noticed occurs and getting a minuscule
blood and skin sample.
The screen changed
“Sample acquired and analyzed
Subject Female age 4 years 7 months
Species = Human
Abnormalities = slight height deficiency
detected
Health = excellent
Awaiting sequence selection”
Elly turned again and mumbled
in her sleep
“Mmm I wish I was a big girl
like sis”
Again the screen changed.
“Voice command recognized
Transposer Protocol Enlarge C +
Initialization
Warning no parameter limits specified”
The screen began a countdown
Firing in
5… 4… 3… 2… 1…
Suddenly a blinding orange light
like a projector or headlights on
steroids filled the room targeting
Elly.
Suddenly Elly woke up between
the light and suddenly feeling
more well rested and energetic than
any moment of her short life.
The light faded and Elly stood
up fast seemingly unchanged or
unaffected and blissfully unaware
of what happened.
The ribbon on the front of her shirt
had fallen off but Elly was more
worried about getting in trouble.
She rushed into the hall
and heard her Sammy looking for her.
The 2 sisters meet back up and
put their socks and shoes back on
although Elly notices her socks and
shoes both a tad more snug
for some reason.
Elly had a hunch she might be
forced to go barefoot again.
For now everyone is blissfully
unaware what has happened to
the young girl.
