Welcome to week thirty-eight of Saturday Centus.
Scroll down beyond my SC-text to read Mrs. Matlock's instructions for this week.
Here is my text: (The prompt is in light yellow)
------
'Blue-Planet here. Come in.'
'What do you see?
'A large construction with ropes hanging down from a frame. A large number of them surrounding this object.'
'What is this?'
'I'm afraid the invisibility unit wasn't working. Some of them saw us...'
A black clad man: 'We are gathered here...'
One of women: 'I'm not mad! '
'...in Salem Village...'
'I'm not a witch!'
'...to witness...'
'As God is my witness...'
'...1692...'
'...look under that oak!'
Half of them turn their heads.
'Look, she's right! Look over there!'
The other half chanting: 'Witch, witch!'
'Uh-oh. They've seen us! Beam me up, Scottie. Time to leave.'
------
Wordcount: 100
Best wishes,
Anna
P.S.
Sci-Fi means almost anything, even time-travel. Or aliens that could have visited planet earth long before NASA came into existence. My apologises to Sarah Good and all of those who were executed for witchcraft in the Dominion of Massachusetts 1692. Go to Wikipedia to read more about the Salem witch trials here.

Mrs.Matlock's instructions:
Saturday Centus - Be afraid, be very afraid....
I think we all need to continue to shake things up a little bit for the New Year so this week we'll continue doing that. I'll tell you more in a moment, but go ahead and curse me now!This week, we're going to go further with a shake up and do a genre specific SC from the prompt.
This week you can have the whole 100 words (plus the prompt) BUT try writing sci-fi.
GULP!
BTW, I hate sci-fi, so I'm not picking this because it's easy for me.
I got this prompt from a galaxy far, far away...so you can't technically be annoyed at me.
The prompt is:
"Beam me up, Scottie..."
