Quantum fields
Because
I create new things By fluctuations in all
Quantum fields fluctuate, spontaneously creating pairs of one particle and its anti particle.
Destroys each other
The two annihilate later
Incredibly small They are here and there? Perhaps. You will never know
Particles are very small. Indeed, the fundamental ones have no size, as much as we can tell. Quantum mechanics tell us we never really know where a particle will appear. We are not sensitive to the field itself, which is deterministic, but to the random apparent position of the particle it corresponds to.
As an extension of this, the answer could be
Quantum vacuum or simply vacuum, because pair creation can happen in vacuum (which is never an absolute vacuum)

Creating new things
Strings are thought to be responsible for the existence of matter
By fluctuations in all
Strings determine the state/type of matter through their vibrational state
Destroys each other
The collision between two strings can result in their destruction??
Incredibly small
Strings are very small, likely the smallest particle
They are here and there
They may or may not exist. If they do, they make up the framework for everything.
You will never know
There is no reliable way to prove or disprove this theory.

Electrons
I create new things
molecular bonds are formed by electrons
By fluctuations in all
specifically the fluctuation of the magnetic field created by the movement of the electron creates a dipole causing molecules to bond together.
Destroys each other
not sure but this might refer to electron-positron annihilation.
Incredibly small
Smallest particle that we know of (I think)
They are here and there? Perhaps.
Electrons (or leptons) go in and out of existence. Can also refer to the wave-particle duality, where they act like waves.
You will never know
There is no way to get the exact location and the momentum of the particles so you will never know where they are and where they are going. (Uncertainty principle)
Second attempt:
Thoughts
I create new things
Thoughts turn into new things everyday (Art)
By fluctuations in all
Innovative thinking is like a fluctuation of the original product
Destroys each other
Each new thought can destroy the previous one.
Incredibly small. They are here and there? Perhaps. You will never know
Its hard to measure where a thought was created
Answer:
A wave.
I create new things
All matter is wave-like. All phenomena in nature have wavelike behavior.
By fluctuations in all
Waves 'fluctuate' between the peak and trough
Destroys each other
Two waves can interfere to amplify or cancel eachother out. This is called wave interference.
Incredibly small
Waves of matter have unfathomably 'small' wavelengths
They are here and there? Perhaps.
You will never know
If you want to know how fast a particle is moving, you won't know where it is, if you know where it is, you won't know how fast it's moving. Because of Heisenberg's principle these wave-like particles appear to behave rather unpredictably on very small scales. We cannot know their 'conjugate variables'. We cannot ever know everything about a particle (because of its wave-like behavior).
