After I won a three-million-dollar lottery, my parents and younger sister suddenly told me they had traveled back from the future. They claimed that on the first day of the new year, the end of the world would arrive. Everyone in my family would awaken superpowers, except for me. According to them, I would end up with nothing and be killed by zombies. My mom said, "Ashlyn, this bracelet of Callie's is a storage bracelet. It might save your life when the end comes. But you know what they say, business is business. You have to trade your lottery ticket for it." Looking at that utterly ordinary bracelet, I agreed without hesitation. That same night, they kicked me out of the house. My father said, "I don't know if you're truly stupid or just pretending. You believed such a lame lie. "Get out now. We don't want a daughter as foolish as you. That three million dollars is all your sister's; you won't get a single cent of it." I nodded and secretly took all the food supplies from home. What they didn't know was this: while their "travel back from the future" was a lie, mine was real. That bracelet really was a storage bracelet. And the end of the world would come tomorrow.
