The Upside-Down World
Leo woke up floating three feet above his bed. Again.
Ever since the Great Shift, the laws of physics had just… stopped working. No one knew why. One day, apples fell from trees. The next, they floated up and turned into bubbles. Gravity had taken a vacation and so had everything else. Light bent the wrong way, water flowed into the sky, and time ticked forward, backward, or sometimes just stood still and sulked.
Leo was 11, and he’d learned to get by. Sort of. His house was tied together with ropes and anchors so it wouldn’t drift into space. He kept his shoes on the ceiling, just in case “down” changed again.
Today was different, though. Today, Leo had a mission: find his dog, Muffin, who had floated away chasing a butterfly-shaped fireball two days ago.
He packed a backpack full of snacks (which might turn into frogs later) and slipped on his magnetic boots, just in case the ground remembered how to be solid. Opening the door, he jumped—and instead of falling, he glided like a leaf through a sky that had decided to turn purple.
The world was a swirling mess of floating trees, upside-down rivers, and staircases leading to nowhere. Leo dodged a flock of singing pencils and waved to a woman rowing a bathtub through the air.
“Seen a golden retriever?” he shouted.
“Check the mountain that’s melting into the lake!” she called back.
Leo floated toward the mountain, which now resembled a giant scoop of ice cream slowly dripping into the clouds. Near the edge, he saw a flash of golden fur—Muffin!
“Muffin!” Leo yelled, but sound worked weird here, and the name came out as a song. Somehow, Muffin heard it anyway and barked, wagging her tail mid-air.
Reaching her wasn’t easy. The closer Leo got, the more the world twisted. Space looped. Up was down. Muffin floated just out of reach, like a dream you almost remember.
Then Leo had an idea. He stopped trying to move the way he used to. He closed his eyes, thought about being next to Muffin, and believed it.
Suddenly, he was there.
The world didn’t work by rules anymore. It worked by thought. By imagination.
Holding Muffin close, Leo laughed. Maybe this world wasn’t broken. Maybe it was just… different. A place where science had taken a nap, and wonder had taken its place.
As he floated home, Muffin licking his face, Leo realized something big: when nothing made sense, he got to decide how things worked.
And maybe that wasn’t so scary after all.

The Anti-Physics World
Elon Musk, the richest man on earth found a new planet and named it Aqua Pavonis on 2028 January 26th. He captured us like we’re slaves and put us on the new planet to live on, he said it was good for us. This world seemed pretty safe at the start, and it was the second country that had water. We built buses, planes, boats and cars, everything on the planet came out smoothly. More and more mankind wanted to start coming to Pavonis, so Elon Musk one giant tube, it had a diameter of around 5 meters. This tube allows you to come here pretty fast since there was supersonic balls that carry you to Pavonis, but unlike us, they had magnetic tentacles that allow them to stick on to the cube from the out side and go back. We are stuck.
The population grew super fast, and the buildings grew quicker. Pavonis turned into a super beautiful country by 2031. The white leaves fade away while hanging down from trees, lush green waves collaspe on to the magma rocks, painting the blazing canvas green. Everything changed after a gamma-ray burst close to Pavonis happened. The world had no physics!
A bus flew at 100km per hour, crashing all the innocent souls on the road, their blood wasn’t bleeding, it stayed beneath the skin and started to engulf in flames. The fire was dripping, a touch could burn your whole body. Water was floating around, creating a stunning pattern, but it started to surround people, slowly drowning them. They tried to escape through the tube, but the supersonic balls trembled across the people, like they were nothing. People were dying, dead, dead, dead, dead. The dead people floated in the air, combing with other dead people, and forming a red planet. It was as big as moon. Rain parachuted down, but it was red. The ground became stretchy like rubber and the light bulbs casted light that went super slow, going through objects. A piece of paper cut a person in half, and then his organs explode. Blood covered the floor, coating the buildings and roads. The red planet began to rise, growing bigger and bigger, with more people attaching to it. Gas flew through the air at intense speed, pushing us down, it felt like being hydraulic pressed. The sun looked bigger and bigger, and it became hotter and hotter. We’re going to crash into the sun.
Something felt weird, ticklish, I couldn’t breath. There was no more oxygen. This planet is going to be destroyed, same as me, same as mankind. The sun looked bigger and bigger and bigger, and the tube was pulling earth with us. Our world is now going to get destroyed, because of Elon Musk and how he want to buy the universe. Our world fell into the hands of selfishness- bye.
