h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Which was why he had chosen a green flannel to travel the lenght of the Universe on.

Oddy was VERY imaginative. However, landing on X2's nose had perhaps not been the best decision to make.

Another reason was that he felt like a shark on it. It was this hypersimulation of some kind only he could figure out. But it was there. He picked up a phone and dialed 42 (lol ), aiming to contact HQ for summarized report. Instead,

...he had grabbed the daffodil from David (X2's straw hat) and jumped into the safety of some nearby cables.

Changes: TIA

Oddy picked up the phone...

(sorry for the confusion)

he unknowingly phoned a pizza delivery company, and the message was recorded by a secret government department.

er, we have a bit of a simulpost problem here . I like the dafodil one, could bring the phonecall in later perhaps. Or previously.

[nah, delete the daffodil one.]

(could use the dafodil to bring the story back to the present moment once we've explained how Oddy had ended up in the room and why X2 had left the flannel there I suppose)

(follow your heart, and be free)

also, sorry for the confusion and all... this always happens. It's this improbability thing surrounding me LOL

(ok then ) The department couldn't understand a word of the conversation, but were able to trace the caller to the West Laboritory of their genetic engineering project.

Oddy looked around. He was in a cage, with a human and a chimp. Hmm. Within seconds he had chewed his way through the bars and was off, running down the corridors. He knew he should have come here. In all of the confusion, he had forgotten his flannel.

(sorry 'shouldn't' is what i meant)

The chimp picked the flannel of its face and looked enquiringly at it's companion.

"What was all that about?" asked Raymond. "Not too sure, old chum" replied X2, "but as the cage is open, shall we escape?"

"I'm game", Raymond replied as he picked up chimp and flannel and made for the exit.

Their visions (once thought to be peripheral) was now arguably pathetic. Something happened somewhere, and that something affected the vision, that's right - the ones that once was thought to be peripheral.

The pair were on the run for 24 minutes before the lab got bored of looking for them and went to the pub. Unfortunately, that was exactly where Raymond and X2 had chosen to hide...

But fortunately enough, they were hidden.
