"FoG story. Everyone can contribute........"

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.”

Then FM looked at YH strangely as The_Vottanator wasn't even ther.

As they walked out, YH said to The_Vottanator:

"This is how we use punctuation."


"And the return key."

FM just happened to wander into the casino's vault where he saw a brand spanking new X-Box on a ledge. He new he'd been here before but where. "Sonic" he shouted as it hit him. He went to tell the others to get as much money as they could so they could pile it all up and get to the new GameCube. "Ok" said Sheepy "but we havn't got any money".
"57p" said FM, "we'll have to multiply that". He walked over to the roulette table and said "57p on black". The wheel was spun and.......black. "YEEEESSSSS!!!" they all shouted together. "Now what", said Time_Warp. "Black" said Sheepy. "No, Red" Sniper argued. "Ok" said FM, "who wants black". Everyone put up their hand except Sniper. "Right Decided", said FM. "Here goes" he continued, "1 pound 14p on black". The wheel was spun and it landed on red. "Damn" they all shouted except for Sniper who said, "Told you". "Shut up Sniper" everyone shouted before giving him the biggest beating of his life. With Sniper lying on the floor with bruises all over, FM said, "Now how are we going to gewt that X-Box?"
"X-Box?" said Game, you told me it was a GameCube. "Errr...I did" said Fm, trying to buy him some time. "Oh" said Game, confused. With that he forgot what was going on and collapsed in a heap on the floor. How the hell were they gonna get that X-Box? "I know" said Venombyte, "we just stand on each others shoulders." Damn good idea", said FM. They returned to the vault and made a tower with themselves. FM climbed to the top and picked up HIS new X-Box. "Throw it down" said T_W. "Er-no" said FM. Suddenlt, Joe Pesci emerged from the shadows behind FM. "Watch out" everyone shouted. It was too late. The pen had already been thrust into FM's neck. Again, again, again. He fell back down to the others still clutching the X-Box. His dying words were, "I touched an X-Box. I die a happy man."
"Hmmm....freak" said Sheepy not understanding the importance of the X-Box to FM. "Let's go" said T_W in a sad voice. As they all walked out next to each other, Moby's 'My Weakness' played in the background. They came as 6, they left as 3....

Death was looking particularly grumpy. Not that he ever looked happy, as such, but he was defifintely looking unhappy right now.

He examined the hourglass again. Something wasn't right. There was no sand in the upper chamber, yet sand still fell freely into the lower chamber. It was as if he was dead, but yet still alive, somehow....

It was no good. He would have to do something about the Sniper problem.

Death picked up his scythe in his bony white hands, and set off to find a way of harvesting this troublesome soul. Maybe he would challenge him to a game of chess...

Time_warp, Your Honour, Ice Blaster, Dringo, Meka and Sheepy opened their eyes to see.....

...... A casino in front of them. A man who looked suspiciously looked Robert De Niro walked passed.

"Get the **** out of here you *******ing ********er ***********************ing ******er ***in ***er." He said.

"Was he talking to us?" Asked TW.

"Don't know." Replied Meka.

"I'm in heaven." Said YH as he wandered off to go and gamble away all his money (about 57p).

"Where are we? Wasn't that Bob De Niro? There's Joe Pesci. We're in a film!!!"

"But which one?"

"There can be only one-"

"Highlander?"

"No you fool! Casino."

"But how did we get here?" Every was talking now. Meka didn't know the answers so he walked quickly to catch up with YH and go and gamble.

The others shrugged and followed....

"Now..." FM stood up straight. "If we all think about the same place, then we're bound to end up there? Yes?"

"Well, I suppose so. No matter whose mind it chose, it would work."

"So..." Fm said, grabbing the ticket off Pb. "Why don't we have some fun?"

Grix smiled.

"Has anyone ever seen any of Russ Meyer's films?"

Everyone nodded, looking at the ground... Ant continued to eat sugar.

"To be perfectly honest, Grix, it's probably not a good idea."

"What? Why?"

"Where would the plot go?" Venombyte asked, quite concerned.

"Who cares? Was there any plot in a Russ Meyer film? No! It doesn't matter."

"And we can't really go to anything that is remotely naughty. It's a family thread."

Grix frowned... and agreed. "Damn... so where CAN we go?"

"Huh?" Ant pulled himself out from the chocolate swimming pool.

"We're trying to think of where we could go Ant, a film, to pass the time in."

Then, music began to play.

"That's odd..." FM looked around. "What's going on?"

The workers all came together, and started to sing, in rather deep voices.

"Oompa, Loompa, Loopidy do, I've got an another puzzle for you. If you are are born of the the knowledgable tree, you will be wise to listen to me."

"What awful lyrics!" Grix commented to the group...

A lone Oompa Loompa stood up. "Thinking as one, is not the way to go."

Another. "You will die if you control it so."

A third. "The ticket only reads from the subconcious..."

Last. "That is how you ended up with us."

They started bobbing again. "Oompa loompa doopidy do, that was another puzzle for you."

They resumed working.

"Puzzle?" Ant asked. "I didn't see anything to work out."

"Yeah, but at least now we know we can't control it... or WE'LL DIE!"

The rest looked at Pb as his voice echoed out the last words...

"Apparently."

"Err... guys?"

Everyone looked at Ant.

"I think it might be a good idea if we left now."

They continued to stare.

"I've just farted."

Pb snatched the ticket back from FM... and began to rub the ticket... the rest grabbed on...

Ant, FM, pb, Venombyte and Grix (I think thats everyone), opened their eyes, to come face to face with......

...an Ooompah Looompah. They looked around, saw the chocolate river and all the other edible bits of Willy Wonkas Chocolate factory.

Ant went wild, All that sugary sweet stuff! He ran off to the nearst bush and starting eating the leaves. Pb just sat back on his heels and put his head in his hands. Where were they now? What were they going to do? He tried to remember the last 24 hours:

Cinema, watching the film of their last adventure (changed considerably by the director, turbonutter), pub, Grix's car with Ant trying to drive, pub, cinema, Jurrasic Park film set, Wookiees place, film set, now here.

It was all to do with that ticket, he just had to figure it out.

"What was everyone thinking off when we were transported here?" he asked.

"Going to bed." Replied Grix, who collapsed on the ground and started snoring.

"Food." Said Ant, "I was starving."

"What about before we were taken to Jurrasic Park?"

"It was raining, i saw a lizard, i thought of that scene in JP where they had to crawl out of the car." Replied FM, "Why? What are you trying to say? That whatever we think of, we get taken to a film nearest to it?"

"It seems the only option, bearing in minds whats happened so far." Pb wiped his hands over his face, he was so tired.

"How do we know who's thoughts it'll use next?" Asked Venombte.

"I don't know."

They all looked at Ant, who had finished one bush and had moved onto a tree.

Just then an angry looking man strided up to the group. It looked as though he meant business and he motioned for them to come down.

“What the heck are you doing on my set?” he yelled at goatboy, who was the nearest one to him.

“Set?” asked The Game, who still didn’t really understand what was happening.

“Yes. Of course. I’m trying to make the remake of Summer Holiday meets Jekyll and Hyde and you go messing around with the props. Put that radio down, I’ve called the police….” Shouted the director.

“Better use the ticket again.” Said Time_warp to FM as he grabbed the half of the ticket that he held.

“Noooooooo…..” said FM as Time_warp reached out and the ticket glowed stronger.

They disappeared, along with Sniper, Your Honour, Ice Blaster, Dringo, Meka and Sheepy, who were standing nearby. The others just looked in amazement as the glow subsided and they rushed to Grix.

“We have to use the other half of the ticket, it’s our only way out.” Said Ant.

“Well, it’s risky, the others have gone ahead and we might not end up in the same place, but I suppose it beats staying here and risking jail again.” Grix said has he rubbed the ticket. The others crowded around him.

“Here goes nothing!” said Pb and Venombyte in unison.

"What the hell is that!" Exclaimed Ant as Wookiee poured the group some luminescent green juice

Grix looked at Meka "Er...."

Grix was interrupted by Goaty

"Wahoooooooooo!" Goaty screamed as he downed the glass of liquid. He opened his eyes and *BOOM*... They turned bright Pink!

"Cubes up" Shouted Wookiee as he chucked the yellow and blue sugarcube into the air...

Goaty caught it in his mouth...

Then, he bent down and leapt into the air... The experience was over whelming.... he was flying.

They all had some green juice and blue and yellow cubes and went off flying....

"Dude!" yelled Goatboy "We've forgot the stereo! Actually...." At that moment he clicked his fingers and they were transported on to a floating island.

"This is too wierd" Said FM as he turned and shook his head laughing to YH who was sitting on a fallen beech tree.

"Woah! Yelled Game... "look at this..."
