FM licked the first three fingers of his right hand and stroked his eyebrows, smoothing them down. He turned at, white robes with simple gold embroidery down the front swishing around him as he heard the guard approach.

FM was standing in a simple square room, with four braziers, one in each corner, all burning different colours. These weren’t normal flames however, as they did not give off coloured light, and the room remained smokeless, with a white light seeming to emanate from the walls and floor, with no shadows forming. In the middle of the room were two pedestals, about four feet apart. On top of them was a box. In it was FM’s father. FM turned as the guard stopped, bowing.

“Master.” Said Sniper, raising his head, looking into FM’s cold, hard eyes.
“You have your mission? You are ready to leave?”
“Yes Master.”
“Good.” FM turned back to look at the coffin, licking his fingers and rubbings his eyebrows again as he spoke. “This is just the first part my friend. I will have my revenge, I do not know when, but I will/”
“Yes Master.” There was an edge of concern in Snipers voice.
“What is wrong, my friend?”
“I do not know, Master. I think I am worrying with no reason.”
“Ah. You are concerned about the book, yes?” Sniper lowered his eyes. “Do not fear. I will find the book. MY magic grows with each passing month, soon I will have the power needed to find the book. Then, when it is mine, I will have unimaginable power!” FM felt a shiver run up his spine as he closed his eyes, imagining the power he would wield. He looked at Sniper. “You have your orders.”
“Yes Master Meister.”
“Go. Be swift, and do not fail me.” Sniper turned and left the room.

FM turned back to the coffin. As he walked around it, his fingers traced the inscription carved into the stone. He knew them all, word for word, but their feel comforted him. They were instructions on how to travel the underworld.

Wrath exploded through Meka’s mind. He screamed “No!” in a murderous rage as he leapt off the rock. With both hands he brought the sword up while still in mid-air. When he hit the ground he recoiled, swinging it around from behind in an arc. The sword whistled with its speed. The man had turned as Meka hit the ground. Seeing Meka coming, he brought his own sword up defensively, with lightning speed.

Meka watched as if in a dream as his sword come around. Every ounce of his strength went into trying to make the sword go truer, go faster. Be deadlier. The magic raged with his need. Meka looked from the mans sword, hard into the steel blue eyes. Mekas sword followed the track of his eyes, he heard himself still screaming. The man held his sword straight up, to deflect the blow.

Everything else around the man dissolved in Mekas vision. His anger, the magic, was unleashed like never before. No power on earth could deny him the mans blood.

He finished his arc, the sword coming round at eye height to the side of the mans head. It shattered through the mans sword, and exploded through his chainmail hood, bits of molten twisted metal flying off into the undergrowth. The sword continued its journey, making contact with the mans skull, and continuing through, out the other side of his head.

Bits of bone blood and brain flew up into the air as the early morning air was filled with a cloud of red mist. Steaks of blood covered Meka, dripped down his body, dribbled off his sword as he slowly lowered the point to the ground.

The mans body crumpled slowly to the ground, blood pumping out over the ground, mixing with the puddles already there. Meka could feel the cold mist help cool his body.

“Meka!” Meka awoke, a sheen of sweat over his whole body. “Meka, my brother, are you alright?” asked Grix.
“It was that dream.”
“Again?” Meka nodded in reply.
“Come on, get up, we have to meet the others soon.”
“Who?”
“You know, the others from the village. Dan2K1, Venombyte and Ant.”
“What about er-no, and YH?”
“They said they had something to do. They will meet us later.” Grix helped his brother to sit up.
“Ok, give me a few minutes." Grix nodded and left the room. Meka put his head in his hands as he thought about the dream.

“Master Meister?” FM looked around.
“Yes?”
“I have some bad news Lord, about Sniper.”
“He hasn’t dies again has he?”
“Yes Lord, he fell off his horse.”
“How did that kill him?”
“Into the moat.”
“He can swim.”
“Yes Lord, but as he tried to climb out, he must have pulled the lever, the one you ordered put in?”
“I vaguely remember.”
“That let the piranhas in.”
“Ah. I should have expected something like this. He has a whole bloody palace to have his accidents in. I put all that sponge about so he wouldn’t hurt himself, and yet he falls into the piranha moat. Amazing. Nevermind, he will be back by now. Tell him to continue with his task. Tell him to be more careful next time.”

Sniper and Grix had finished their cocoa, and were sitting around on the sofa.

Grix was uncomfortable. He was sure Sniper was moving closer to him.

Finally, Sniper jumped on top of him and shouted, "Oh, make love to me now!!"

Grix shoved Sniper off him, ran outside and began screaming, "AAAAAAHHHHHH!!! THE TICKET!!! GET THE BLOODY TICKET!!"

*AUTHOR'S NOTE* I've had to cut out a lot of what Grix said as it was not suitable for the forums.

Suddenly, a sinister looking figure blocked Grix and Sniper.

" I have come... to kill you all."

"Yeah, whatever," Grix carelessly shrugged his shoulders, unaware that the figure had two heads and sharp looking fingers.

" The time has come for the evil to take over the world..." The two headedthing continued with his meglomaniac plans.

"I've had enough of this," said Sniper, bored from this strange thing that came from nowhere.

"It's about time I lived up to my name." And without further hesitation, he plucked a high Assault 30x Zoom Sniper Rifle from the ground, took aim, and fired.

"Sorted." said Sniper, satisfied by the outcome.

"Cocoa?" Grix offered.

YH motioned for TW to turn around, but he just kept skipping around with the rock held high above his head. "Look at me! World's strongest man..." he shouted. Then he saw the look on YH's face and slowly turned.

Before his eyes stood an 8ft tall green scaley monster with large black eyes. TW could see the reflection of his scared face in those eyes and he just about summoned up the courage to throw the lightweight rock at the monster before fleeing in terror.

The others were already running as TW came flying past, kicking up a cloud of dust in his wake. They headed for a nearby cave and hid there, not wanting to make a sound until the horrible creature passed by.

"Phew, that was close." said Meka.

"Yeah!" said TW, regaining some of his 'bravery'. "I nearly had him there, did you see the way I threw that rock at him? Scared him off I reckon!"

"Yeah...must of scared him off. That's right TW..." said YH as he looked at Dringo, trying not to laugh.

"We'd better find our way out of here again." said Meka as he fished out the half of the ticket that he'd kept when FM dropped it. Just as he held it up a 'cawing' noise made them look up to the sky. A giant black bird swooped down and grabbed the ticket from Meka's grasp, enticed by the strange glow it emitted. A glint of light saw it vanish from the sky in front of their eyes as it flew into the sunset.

"What are we going to do now?" asked Dringo.

-- -- -

They crept out of the cave in search of the bird. TW stood at the back of the group, nervously looking around him every few seconds for any sign of the monster. As they reached the brow of a hill they looked down at the endless desert set before them.

"Well." said Meka. "It's a long way to go before civilisation, we'd better get started..."

"er..." started TW from behind. He was looking the other way. The others turned to face 5 of the monsters looking down at them.

--- -- -

Sheepy couldn't take any more. He'd had far too much singing about deer, flowers and many other of his 'least' favorite things and pulled Bonus away from the laughing children. As they cleared the next hill he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Remind me never to turn the tv on next Christmas day..." he said.

They walked a little further and noticed the scenery start to change. It became sandy and rocks appeared where previously only grass had been. Then they saw it, the large airstrip on the hill.

"Wow! Why are all those lights set up on that flat mountain up there?" said Bonus.

"I don't know, but this means something....this is important..." replied Sheepy, thoughtfully.

-- - - -

TW was still wriggling when they got to the spacecraft. He entered with the others and witnessed a mass of lights and computer banks, all making whizzy noises or bleeping. They were positioned on metal chairs that looked anything but inviting.

"We are not here to harm you, we will take you back to earth." said one of the aliens in a strange unearthly voice. "We will bring you refreshment and anything you wish to eat..." he continued.

They ordered lots of food and got everything they asked for, although the alien food replicator had a job with the whipped cream gammon steak and strawberry tart that TW ordered. The others looked at him as he ate it.

"Well, they said 'anything' I thought I'd test them!" he said as he tucked into another bite of strawberry and gammon.

- - - --
After a long climb and bluffing the security guards with Sheepy's fake FBI pass that he got from an old X-files magazine, Bonus and Sheepy made their way to the top of the mountain. They found a load more guards and people in white coats hurrying about getting ready for something.

The wind started getting up and they felt their balance go a few times, so they sat down and waited to see what was happening.

A few minutes later, a noise like an underground train came into earshot and before they knew it, several fast moving silver discs were flying around the airstrip, dancing in the air with flashing multi-colour lights.

"Wow." said Bonus. "cool."

But that wasn't the end of it, another few minutes passed and a rumble like thunder made everyone look into the sky. A giant saucer, much bigger than the others, came into view. It was a giant spaceship and it's lights were illuminating the ground beneath it.

A burst of sound came from the equipment nearby, nearly knocking Sheepy off his seat. Then a burst from the ship repeated the noise. Before long they were communicating and the noise was deafening.

Then, as suddenly as it started, the noise stopped and the craft slowly decended. A door opened and smoke drifted around the entrance of the craft, blocking the view of its inhabitants.

A shadowy figure slowly emerged from the craft, followed by another, and another. The last one looked as if he was holding his stomach. All of a sudden he let out a huge belching noise.

"It's TW!" shouted Sheepy, recognising the sound immediately and rushed over to greet them.

He stopped when he saw the other creatures emerging from the craft, the monsters made him take a step backwards, waving his hand feverishly.

One of the monsters waved his hand in front of his face.

"Phew, it's so hot in here..." he said as he removed his mask. "They don't pay us enough to dress in these costumes." he said.

Everyone turned around and watched, as all the monsters took their masks off.

"They were actors?" said Meka in surprise.

"I knew that!" lied TW.

Just then, a monkey shot passed them on a pair of roller-skates.

"Don't ask!" said the nearest monster actor.

"And why aren't we in colour?" Ant asked, checking his surroundings.

"It's obviously a black and white film." Said Venombyte.

"Thanks for that Sherlock."

"Hahaha, it's, er, uh, funny you should mention that Grix."

"Whatm what are you all laughing at?" As he said this Grix reached up to scratch his lip. He felt the moustache just as everyone burst out laughing.

"Nice trousers Grix!"

"Nice shirt!"

Grix looked down. He was clad in 1940's clothes, as a rich boy.

"Grixeeee! Darling Grixeeee! There you are! Daddy has been looking all over for you." Grix turned around to see Sniper. In a dress.

"Oh Christ....."

"Come here darling, you're needed back for dinner." Girlfriend or sister? Grix thought to himself. Swiftly followed by: Please be sister, please be sister, please be.....

Sniper kissed Grix smack on the lips.

"Damn."

Everyone else was in fits by now.

"Wheres that damn ticket? Get us out of here!" Said Grix.

"Who are you talking to darling? Come on, lets get dinner out of the way, then we can go upstairs," Sniper pinched Grix's bottom, "This is our wedding night afterall"

Grixs face fell.

"Find that bloody ticket and get us out of here!" He shouted to the group.

"Bye bye Grixy, have a nice night." Venombyte waved as Grix and Sniper walked back into the big country house.

But then suddenly Fish-e fell to the floor with half an arm missing.

Fish-e gets up slowly looks rounds towards a shadowy figure, his legs were telling him/her to run, but he/she stood still in fear.

Help mastteeeeer the hissing voice of fish-e blurted out!

A big ball of what seemed to be lightning rose up around fish-e and shocked the shadowy figure, as the figure stood up she heard a voice from fish-e up above I outsmarted you again Lara!

"...I think we just left Your Honour's film again." said Sheepy, hurrying away.

"Good job too, it was getting a bit hairy there for a minute. Now, lets get cracking and find the others, we've not got any of the ticket, so we'll just have to hope something happ..."

A flash of light (again!) stopped Bonus in mid-sentence, as they covered their eyes for risk of getting blinded. When they finally peeped out from behind their hands, they saw a completely different landscape.

"Wow. Lovely fields full of flowers, I wonder where we are now." said Sheepy, looking around.

"Perhaps we can ask that lady running up the hill?" replied Bonus, pointing.

"Ah, you mean the one running towards us with the group of children behind her?"

"Yes." said Bonus, puzzled. "You know, I could swear that she's about to burst into song.."

-- -- --

It was all very confusing. Everyone had split up and then, as soon as they got back together, they were forced to split up again. YH, Meka, TW, Ice Blaster and Dringo were discussing the death of FM, while they investigated their new landscape.

"I can't believe he's gone. Just like that!" said YH

"Well, we have to carry on." said Meka, the realist. "It looks as though we are in a dessert of some sort. Lots of rocks around as well."

"Hey guys!" came the shout from over to the left. It was TW. "Look, I can pick these rocks up! They're as light as polystyrene!"

"hmm." said Meka, thinking. "Where have I seen those kind of rocks before....

-- -- -

FM looked around. White mists covered the land and a pair of gates stood in front of him. So this was heaven.

He got closer and saw that someone stood behind a desk at the gates, in front of him a queue of people formed.

"Name..." said the man.

FM was sure he recognised him, but from what? Ah, Monty Python. Yes, it all made sense now. He breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the queue.

When they ariive at the spot where the flash came from, they founf nothing, well except frazzled rock the size of Sheepy's hand.

"I wonder what this stone is??" questioned Sheepy.

Bonus just stared at Sheepy.

He then said "well Sheepy i'm pondering that it is a stone, but i'm just not quite sure, hmmmm!!!"

"Your mocking my intelligence aren't you????"

"Nooooooo what makes you think that??"

Suddenly there was cracking sound like somebody standing on twigs. Sheepy and Bonus both quickly turned around, and there stood Fish-e, a wise man from a local village.

"Long time no see Sheepy, how are you??"

"Not bad Fish-e, but don't think i've forgiven you for what you did??"

"Sheepy come on that was two years ago, I was drunk, adn so was your missus," Fish-e looked down at the floor "It's history now.

"Well I guess so" Sheepy shook Fish-e's hand " so what happend here?"

"Well all I know is that there was a bright flash, and when I arrived there was you two, so I haven't got a clue."

"Oh, well I best be off, see you around Fish-e, goodbye"

"Bye my friend."

Sheepy and Bonus walked back to their village leaving the frazzled stone behind.

"Muah ha ha ha, they fell for it the stupid fools, and they left the stone of azkamarara, Master Meister will be proud to here of this!!" Fish-e walked off laughing evilly

SHEEPY ate some grass, and pondered over why only one author was writing about him-he was Notable!!

He finished eating grass, and went looking for some people. He found someone, namely Bonus.

"Hey Bonus."

"Hi SHEEPY."

There was a bright flash in the sky.

"What was that?!" SHEEPY asked.

"I don't know. Lets go look."

The two ran off to see what it was...
