Tumblr had Flash Fiction Wednesday today, so I posted a piece of flash fiction there. But I couldn’t leave you guys out, so here it is.

Interdimensional

The worst thing I’ve ever done in my life is swallow a goldfish. No, scratch that, swallowing a goldfish was the second worst thing. The worst was destroying a civilization.

It wasn’t my fault, really. It was her. She was watching and admiring when Bruno swallowed a goldfish, so I did it too. Except she didn’t even seem to notice. How could she want that oaf Bruno instead of me?

I didn’t even mean to do it. I just thought that the hoverboard from Dad’s lab would impress her. I mean, it’s a real hoverboard, not one of those mutated skateboards calling themselves hoverboards. And it’s powered by interdimensional energy and everything. The one from my Dad’s lab, I mean.

And she was impressed. At least at first, and Bruno was looking really jealous. That was sweet. But then it set up some sort of feedback loop that opened an interdimensional black hole and everything was sucked through. And I mean EVERYTHING.

So that’s how I got here. It isn’t my fault.
