“Hi, I’m Tristan Bancks. This is an excerpt from Teleporter, a short story from my book My Life and Other Stuff I Made Up, Random House Australia 2011.
‘What’re you doing, Freak?’ Jack asks, coming in through our back door.
I flick open the window flap of the large cardboard box that I’m sitting in. The box is in the middle of the lounge room floor.
‘It’s a teleporter,’ I say, letting the flap close again.
‘It looks like a cardboard box covered in foil.’ He says, lifting the flap and staring in at me. He’s holding a soccer ball.
