Four men sit apon four chairs. The night sky falls apon them, and although they don't realise it, night is apon us.
"Hail Brother Ant." SHEEPY said. "What does thou bring us in this time of woe?"
"Hail Brother." Ant replied. "I bring news of a game."
"What game is this you speak of?" Said I.
"It is the one true game. The one that will bind us all." Ant reached into his sack, and withdrew thy press release.
"It is what I've always dreamed of, and yet, my dreams never seem so real." Said I.
"It is of true beauty." Said Ant.
"An online RPG?" Inquired Snipe. "What's so good about an online RPG?"
Ant and I gave Snipe an evil look.
"You do not see the whole picture, misguided one." I remarked.
"Certainly not." Ant stared at the game again. "Lord Lucas would not be pleased to hear of such blasphemy."
"Lord Lucas? What the hell are you lot blabbing on about anyway?"
"Behold. The Star Wars Online RPG is being developed, and you can now sign up for the beta testing."
"I shall not wait to do so. Goodbye gentlemen." Said I.
Snipe continued to argue with Ant and Sheepy well into the night, until Ant withdrew his +5 attack Lightsaber, and Sheepy attacked Snipe with his +15 force grip.

I can't be bothered about this crappy topic when you always make me the first one to die!
I suppose you can still write Ant.
I mean, what can I do to stop you anyway?
(He's MaD!!! CrAzY, I tells ya!!!!)

The five Jedi's pulled away the wreckage of the AT-AT, frantically scrabbling to find the remains of their lost comrade. They did. It wasn't pretty.
"Damn," expleted Commander Grix, "He's gone for good. What now?"
"We could always make pancakes or something...." FantasyMeister tried to fake coughing as the others turned to stare at him.
"Dan, where did you come from?" asked Ant, his lips still covered in sugar granules.
"I'm actually Dan-H," said Dan, "I'm a holographic projection, I'm not really here."
Darkness moved his hand towards Dan and watched in amazement as his hand seemed to pass straight through him. "Nice to see you back anyhow," he said, weakly.
Commander Grix took one last look at the mangled remains of Sniper, mourned his old comrade briefly, sniggered a bit, then turned to address the others.
"OK gentlemen, the planets have aligned." A sense of deja-vu swept over him, it was like je ne sais quoi, but he didn't know what it was. "...they have aligned, and our adventure will continue. Minus the 'pancake'. Mount your vehicles and lets get the hell on with this story."
Commander FantasyMeister mounted his snowspeeder, hit the electronic ignition button, and there was a
*click*

... on a dusty planet, the last member of the band came to his senses...
Looking around he saw that he was alone apart from 2 pieces of paper near him.
On one, he could make out "£10 a month". The other note said "Gone hunting for cheap games. Be back soon!"
"Typical!" he thought "you get stuck in the land of Zelda: Majora's Mask for 4 weeks and your friends don't wait for you before going off on the next big adventure!"
He did not blame them entirely. Long ago, they had been captured by the SR empire and Grix, Fantasy Miester, Fogmaster, and himself had all been implanted with the Nintendo chip.
Luckily for the other 3, Ant had managed to save them before the programming had been fully completed. Dan_uk had not been so lucky. When Emperor Tony sent Zelda: Majora's mask, Dan_uk was zombiefied, his brain trapped in the world of Termina. Having saved the land from it's destruction from the moon, it seemed that he would be free for a while.
Full freedom would only be bought once Tony and his empire had been brought down.
He looked around. Ropes appeared before his eyes. The background changed before him. He found himself in a ring with a pixellated crowd around him.
It was clear that the evil Tony had "No Mercy" and had use the "Gameaday" powers of the force to capture him once again in a new mind game.
All he could do was wait for Grix, Ant, FM, Sniper and the rest of the alliance to end the enchantments of this emperor...
... and in the meantime put polygonal representations of the Rock through tables...

I'm very sorry. I hope I didn't muck it up. Will you still let me write parts of it??
Oops sorry. There are more, aren't there?? Just carry on from the destroyed bit.
Sorry.
Sorry.
I don't think you're following the plot Ant... Tut tut tut...

"Guys, I need a bit of help over here!" Darkness screamed.
"Do it yourself, you lazy son of a..." Sniper mumbled.
We got there as fast as we could. We started shooting, but our laser beams did nothing.
The AT-AT lifted one of its legs up, and it started to descend down onto Sniper.
"HELP!!"
"Sniper, run!!" Grix screamed.
"No, don't run. Stay right there, right there..." Ant said.
"ANT YOU ARE A TOTAL-" Sniper last word was blocked by the noise of the AT-AT.
Suddenly, a faint call was heard from light years away.
"Use the Force, use the force!" Called Yoda.
"Right!! Come on people, call upon the Force! Wrap it around you, make it a part of you!" FM said.
All of them concentrated as hard as they could. They felt the force, they felt it helping, wrapping...
And for no reason, the AT-AT tripped and fell to the floor and blew up.
They walked over to the remains of the AT-AT.
"I'll tell you what, that Force really does come in handy!" Said Ant, as he opened another bag of sugar.

Why you leave SHEEPY out?
I am Darth SHEEPY!
I am Darth SHEEPY!
Four men waited for the fifth man to catch up...
Grix apologised. "Sorry. These bloody orange jump-suits are impossible to get into..."
"Glad you could join us." Ant said. "Sniper, Darkness, you go to the right, and take out all AT-ST's... Grix, FM, go left with me."
"Who the hell gave you charge of us?" Sniper moaned. "We are all Commanders!"
"Just do as he says Snipe."
Five men looked on. About to witness the greatest mystery of the universe...
"OH MY GOD!!! That's how they land!" Grix was startled...
"That's incredible! George has really outdone himself!"
“That’s amazing how they can just tuck that… wow!”
Six AT-AT's, the biggest Empirial vehicles "landed" on the snow.
"May I remind you of Force Commander?" Snipe said...
Grix replied. "Please don't. We take it as blasphemy..."
The snowspeeders drew themselves closer...
Grix and FantasyMeister drew to the left; Ant remained down the centre... laser beams shot past Ant's view.
The AT-ATs advanced, at a reasonably slow pace...
Grix sped up, and over an AT-AT, still unaware of the MORTAL DANGER that faced them all...
Darkness, on the other side of the battle field, launched straight on at the AT-ST, holding down the trigger, as he sped past the burning wreckage of his first kill.
"Good shot Darkness!" Sniper commented, before realising he was out of character, and added. "For you, that is."
Ant, back on the other side, was having problems.
"Our lasers are having on effect on the armour, it's too thick!"
FM shouted over the radio. "So what can we do!"
"Humm..." Ant thought. "Grix! Try and shoot your tow cable at the legs, and tie them up!"
"On my way!"
Grix sped towards the legs of the AT-AT, which loomed over the snow, melting it in the footprints it left.
"DAN!!" Dan was sitting in the gunners’ turret, in the back of the Snowspeeder.
"Yeah!"
"Get ready to fire!"
"Right!"
Grix pulled around the leg with reasonable ease, as the others watched on. Dan aimed the sights with the leg, Grix turned around to watch, and Dan fired.
"Great shot Dan!" Grix turned around to face the front...
And found he was heading straight for the snow... His entire life spanned before him. His birth. The bit in the middle. That time he made a fool out of himself at a cantina disco...
A voice came to him, from inside him. First he couldn't understand what it meant, but suddenly, it became clear to him...
"(USE THE BRAKES YOU IDIOT!)"
"Oh. Right." Grix braked, and pulled up. He continued to fly in and out the legs. Before finally tying the cable into a double knotted bow, and releasing it...
The AT-AT stumbled, wobbled. And then fell over.
Ant and FM came in, and destroyed the weakened AT-AT...
On the other side of the battlefield, now Darkness was having trouble...
Grix apologised. "Sorry. These bloody orange jump-suits are impossible to get into..."
