Universal Mass
Every living creature on planet Earth shrank in size by a factor of five. What used to weigh 100 pounds now weighs 20 pounds. Elephants the size of dogs, pigs the size of mice, mice the size of aphids, humans the size of groundhogs are now the norm. The news anchors at GCN (Global Communications Network) were in communications with the scientists of the world, trying to get some idea of what they believe caused the resizing. The scientists believed that a massive nuclear explosion in the universe had upset the dark matter to dark energy equation. Because of that fact, the universe’s big bang expansion rate slowed, which produced the size change in all living organisms. That explanation seemed unreasonable to Jenna. Other scientists called those words poppycock and said that God was trying to warn mankind of the second coming of Christ. Others simply tried not to sound stupid and remained silent.

An Excerpt
A sickening feeling overwhelmed Jenna as she stepped out onto her front porch. She sat down and tried to regain her sense of balance. She felt as if the world around her had slowed. The feeling was similar to what one would feel after jamming on the brakes of your family car: a feeling of sudden deceleration. When her body adjusted and the fog in her head began to clear, she looked around her, only to discover that everything around her seemed much larger. She realized then that her tiny body was sitting in clothing many times too large for her. She looked down beside her and realized that the wooden porch boards that were usually no wider than the width of her hand were now five or six hands wide. She raised her eyes and looked around the porch, realizing that she was now no larger than the ground hogs that roamed the farm. She managed to squirm out of the clothing that lay around her; her bra straps tangled around her left arm. She now stood perfectly naked on the front porch of her farmhouse.
