"It'll never work," screamed Swish.

"its the only way. We've got to try," replied Shocky in a much calmer manner. "MJs life is in our hands, so it's either now or never".

"NOW!!!," both of them shouted. With an almighty leap they bounded forward into the Time_Warp. In a blur of colour the duo were sucked back to a time just before the great battle of the FOG.

"OUCH!," complained Shocky as he landed on the concrete floor. Swish however was slightly luckier. He had, had a much softer landing...on top of Spider that is.

"Sorry Spider," apologised Swish as he clambered off of the mangled body of Spider. Almost as quickly as Spider had been knocked down he was back on his eight legs and Swish had noticed that he didn't look happy.

"I'm gonna kick the cra......oh its you Swish," Spider said. Swish looked very relieved as he knew that Spider was already angry with him because of him immitating him.

"Hang on a sec, thats not actually happened yet," Swish thought to himself. "Look Spider we have something to tell yuo and we are not sure if your going to believe us," Swish said.

"Well carry on then," Spider replied.

"The thing is Spider, we are Swish and Shocky it's just we are from the near future. Wait dont speak yet. You see we have come back to try and stop MJ dying," Shocky explained.

"MJs going to die....good. I never did like him, well I did but anyway thats another story. What has all of this got to do with me then. As you can see I dont really care what happens to M......," Spider gets inturrupted mid sentence.

"No Spider you dont seem to understand MJ does like you it's just he hasn't apologised yet," Swish tells Spider.

"Okay now I'm confused. Er....I guess I'm in though," Spider mumbles.

Spider Swish and Shocky begin the long walk to the spot where the battle of the FOG would soon take place. Before long Spider realises something very important, " by the way if you two aren't the Swish and Shocky from the present doesn't that mean that there is two Swishs and two Shockys walking around".

"Actually that is a very good point, we better go see the Webmaster and get our names changed before we go any further. Just imagine if we met the present day Swish and Shocky. The results would be catastrophic," Shocky says to Swish and Spider. So the three decide to take a slight detour and head off to the Webmasters office on Turbonutter Avenue.

Some time later........

"Wow this is the Webmasters office?" exclaims Shocky

"Yeah it is. Pretty amazing isn't it......" replies Spider.

"Amazingly cr@ppy that is"

To be continued (hopefully tommorrow)

Sorry for being so

just keep it coming.

You obviously haven't read it Shocky. You are already in it and I need to know what you would like your name to be changed to. You know like Swish has his name changed to Namostar. This is part of the story as they cannot meet the present versions of themselves.

Here is the story so far......without the spelling mistakes.

************

"It'll never work," screamed Swish.

"its the only way. We've got to try," replied Shocky in a much calmer manner. "MJs life is in our hands, so it's either now or never".

"NOW!!!," both of them shouted. With an almighty leap they bounded forward into the Time_Warp. In a blur of colour the duo were sucked back to a time just before the great battle of the FOG.

"I'm gonna kick the cra......oh its you Swish," Spider said. Swish looked very relieved as he knew that Spider was already angry with him because of him imitating him.

"Hang on a sec, that’s not actually happened yet," Swish thought to himself. "Look Spider we have something to tell you and we are not sure if your going to believe us," Swish said.

"Well carry on then," Spider replied.

"The thing is Spider, we are Swish and Shocky it's just we are from the near future. Wait don’t speak yet. You see we have come back to try and stop MJ dying," Shocky explained.

"MJs going to die....good. I never did like him, well I did but anyway that’s another story. What has all of this got to do with me then. As you can see I don’t really care what happens to M......," Spider gets interrupted mid sentence.

"No Spider you don’t seem to understand MJ does like you it's just he hasn't apologised yet," Swish tells Spider.

"Okay now I'm confused. Er....I guess I'm in though," Spider mumbles.

Spider Swish and Shocky begin the long walk to the spot where the battle of the FOG would soon take place. Before long Spider realises something very important, " by the way if you two aren't the Swish and Shocky from the present doesn't that mean that there is two Swishs and two Shockys walking around".

"Actually that is a very good point, we better go see the Webmaster and get our names changed before we go any further. Just imagine if we met the present day Swish and Shocky.

Some time later........

"Wow this is the Webmasters office?" exclaims Shocky

"Yeah it is. Pretty amazing isn't it......" replies Spider.

"Amazingly cr@ppy that is"

"Come on then Swish go and knock on the door then," said Shocky.

"Why should I do it. Your the Shocktrooper and as I have heard the webmaster can get angry so I think that you should do it Shocky," replied Swish.

"Fine then I'll do it," Shocky said in an annoyed voice. Shocky slowly shuffled up to the door. Raising his hand he prepared to knock. BANG! the door flew open and came off its hinges........

"Have you got my GBA!..... oh your not the postman are you? You'd think that I'd already have one seeing as I work for SR wouldn't you? Anyway I suppose that you'd better come in," said the Webmaster, which to be honest was in some freaky sounding voice. The three of them hesitated...., " I said COME IN!" shouted the Webmaster.

"Okay, okay. Dont get your HTML in a twist," replied Swish in a cocky voice. Slowly Spider, Swish and Shocky entered the Webmasters office. All three looked at each in amazement as they saw the contents of the office.

"Don’t look at each other like that, I have everything I need for my job. A god old PC and a huge lightening quick....36k modem. Hmm I see what you mean now. Anyway what are you here for?"

"No wonder it takes him ages to update the site," Spider muttered under his breath.

"What was that Spider?" the Webmaster asked.

"I said Swish and Shocky need to change their names. Can you help them?" replied Spider.

"Of course I can. They don’t call me the Webmaster for nothing. Okay so what do you want your new names to be then.....?" the Webmaster asked.

"Hmmm I am not sure really haven't had much time to think about it. Well I'll be called...Namostar... yeah. Namostar," Swish decided.

"Okay just hang on a sec," the Webmaster said. "You'll have your new name in no time," the Webmaster pushed his feet against the floor and span to his desk, he started typing at his keyboard, brought up the source code to the site and began to change Swishs name. " Okay Namostar hope you like the new name," the Webmaster exclaimed.

"Thanks for that Webmaster. Now Shockys just got to decide on his new name and we can get out of this hell hole...I mean tech heaven," Namostar replied, " well what do you want your new name to be then?"

"Hmmm I am not sure either......how about...."

************

It should be updated tommorrow night. If Shocktrooper tells me what he wants to be called that is.

Has Shocktrooper seen this yet? I guess not. He will not have a say in his new name for the story then. I have decided to call him Biohazard. Like the japanese name for Resident evil.

I bet your pages weren't anywhere near as cack as mine Swish. To be honest the one I am making now (slowly) is not that great. It is okay. Better than my bros site anyway. But it is not brilliant. I cannot really decide what exactly to put on the site.

Do you use any JAVA when making your sites? I have begun to and you can do some pretty good things with it. I have about 50 JAVA games on the games page of my site. They are not that bad either.

Everyones first web page was cack! God, you should've seen mine, it was worse than all of yours put together! But then you improve, I guess im still a rookie.

Fireworks is a graphic manipulation program. In other words, its like a more advanced version of PSP.

TBN, I have not put any recent work on the net, but, for a recent school IT project, I kindly made an interactive presentation using Flash and Dreamweaver (Vector graphics program and HTML editor). I got my results: A for presentation (obviously!!!), A for grammar, B for overall result. If you want TBN I can put this on the net so you can see it.

Oh, and I am 14 (yr9), same as u SB!

Your questions answered!

Seems I am surrounded by proffesionals. My bros site is www.gcse.5u.com.

His frames are a bit muffed up though in my opinion.

Mine is going to kick his @$$. He has only made that site. No more no less.
