Science fiction stories in 6 words or less

Wired asked several well known science fiction authors to write a complete science fiction story using no more than six words, here is a small sample.

We kissed. She melted. Mop please! - James Patrick Kelly
The baby’s blood type? Human, mostly. - Orson Scott Card
To save humankind he died again. - Ben Bova
Easy. Just touch the match to - Ursula K. Le Guin
