 It was a glorious day for everyone. The age of Star Trek had arrived and we were one step closer to achieving a new footnote in human history. The team decided to test the new technology on ourselves for one year before going public with the advancement, after all teleportation is nothing to place in the hands of government and civilians with no research into the side effects or limitations. The team, Tom, Andy, Jess, Hiro, and myself drew straws to see who would be the first to test it out. Tom drew the short straw, then Hiro, Jess, myself, and Andy. To make sure the first jump was a complete success I went to my house across the city and waited for the call that Tom was coming over. Driving home, I was incredibly surprised I did n't get pulled over I was driving so fast. I felt like I had just put a syringe of epinephrine straight into my heart. When I got to my house I called to let the team know I was ready to recieve. Everything was a go on their side. 3, 2, 1, and poof Tom was right inside my doorway. The most incredible thing that I had ever been a part of just happened. There was no noise, no bright light. Just Tom standing there with that goofy fucking grin on his face. Holy shit, he said touching every part of his body to make sure it all came through. I ca n't believe this is happening, Tom was still rattling on excitedly, I do n't even feel weird. We had thought the teleportation would cause some mild discomfort, because well thats what happens in the movies and we did n't have any test subjects that could speak. Tom started walking around my house making sure everything still worked right and probably making sure he was n't dreaming. That was when I noticed the first thing, were n't his eyes green? Maybe they were hazel, but his eyes appeared too dark to be either. I asked if his vision was ok. He said 20/20 so I assumed in my excitement I was just mistaken. Then he turned and looked at me. Everything in his body seemed to tense up all at once. What are you doing in my house? he asked. I asked what he meant, if everything was ok. No, Tom screamed, everything is not ok. You should not be in my house. I could see that Tom was starting to show some kind of side effect to the teleportation. Tom please sit down. You have been through something that no one else has. Understand that we do n't fully understand the consequences yet. Tom was not swayed by that. He ran into the kitchen and I followed quickly behind him. When he got in there I realized he found the gun I had hidden beneath the sink. Tom put the gun down, I said. No one needs to get hurt here. No, Tom screamed again, looking even more terrified than before. Tom what the fuck is your problem? What the hell is going on with you? Listen to me, I am your friend. Who are you, Tom yelled back. Tom, look at me, who do you think I am? I am your best friend on the team. We always worked together. Tom, you know me. We work with Andy, Jess, and Hiro. The five of us together. Four, the four of us worked together, Tom said. Look in the mirror behind you. I turned and saw Tom holding the gun and then I saw... Tom with a confused look on his face. Two Toms. The last thing I remember was the gunshot.
