You come into possession of an old box. Inside are several glass vials filled with dirt, dust and tiny bits of gravel or cement. The vials are labeled with places and dates such as “Port Chicago 7/17/44”, “Halifax 7/6/17” and “Guernica 7/17/36”. A trip to the library confirms that all are dates of massive loss of life in explosions. A few days later a package arrives with no return address.
Inside is an empty vial labeled with your home town and next week’s date.

For some reason the first thing in my thought is that the vial sender want you to blow up your own hometown and put whatever left of it in the vial.

I guess seeing as all these dates were easily found public info, I think I’d assume I was being pranked as I am a bit of a sceptic… I am however a cautious/curious sceptic and would go elsewhere for the day, riding it out and keeping a close eye on the news to see what happens.
You’ve just been inducted to have psychic premonitions about tragedies. They sent an empty vial with the last letter to fill once it happens, so you could send it with the others to the next person who’ll be inducted.
