~ King was just about to relax in his home from a long day of work, when something strange happened. As he laid down on the bed, a strange TV appeared above his bony head. ''What's this?'', King asked himself, ''Who installed THAT inside my house? I recall moving some new stuff into my home, but never did I install a high-tech television screen into my bedroom'' He decided not to pay attention to the thing anymore for the day. He was so tired that he fell asleep just after he spoke the last sentence out loud. That's when the weird square screen began to operate. Swirling yellow and pink colors appeared on the TV screen, as King, sleeping tight, got surrounded by a strange, pink-and-yellow glow...

Some time later, he didn't know how much time, King awoke. He was still in his bed. But something felt... strange. He opened his eyes as much as he could muster, and got upright. His head felt foggy. What had happened to him last night? Had the room grown? No, King realized. He himself had shrunk. His feet couldn't reach half of the space of his bed, even though last night, they just touched the edge of the bed. King looked down, and heard a soft crinkling noise. A warm, comfortable feeling enveloped his waist as he did so. ''Is that...?'', King said to himself. ''...have I been sleeping with a ...a diaper on?'' As he spoke those words, King felt a warm liquid flowing down the insides of the crinkly undergarment, after which it started to slowly shrink... King wasn't sure what he was supposed to think about THIS situation he got himself in. ''It... it must've something to do with that TV I saw before I fell asleep last night...'' King climbed off the now way bigger bed, tore off the soaked diaper and threw it away in a trash bin in the corner of the bedroom. The morning sun was shining through the window next to the bed, but the curtains attached to the railing above said window, prevented King from being completely illuminated by the light. And he was glad he wasn't -- imagine his friends discovering him throwing away a wet diaper and putting on a new one. That was exactly what King was doing now. ''Oh my...'', he said to himself when he opened his drawer, which was stuffed with diapers and nappy pants, ''...it's- ...it's real. That TV must've removed my potty training!'' He then realised how childish that sounded. Ignoring that what he just said to himself, as if some mind control prevented him to listen to his own words, King grabbed one of the nappy pants out of the drawer and closed the heavy wooden thing. Then, he folded the nappy pants open and stepped into them with his right leg, then his left one.

''Hm...'', King thought, ''this... doesn't feel as embarrassing as I'd imagined -- if no one sees me in it, that is. I hope this isn't permanent'' He closed the drawer stuffed with diapers, put on some old pair of farmer's pants he had still left in case he had to go to his workplace, and slowly opened his room door. Now let's hope he wouldn't be seen by anyone -- or stay dry for the foreseeable future. Whatever just happened to him, he would eventually find out how to reverse his current predicament.
