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

*HDS and arwen find themselves way out of sight of the group. the forest grows misty and cold. not sure if it is the sense of unerring doom or the low temperature that is causing the goosebumps. somewhere ahead you hear a gargle. on further inspection, just behind some bushes, you find galp'arc. he is gagged and tied and looks like he has been crying!
without further warning you both find yurselves surrounded by 8 witches! this must be the Covern! rulers of PHENOMS forest!
the witch directly in front of you steps forward and raises her hand. she speaks in a foreign tongue you don't understand. she then looks you in the eye and speaks again.*

witch - so, you come to the forest for a challenge, and destroy my pets would you. how about we set you a goal to achieve? you as a group possessed many powers

*the witches all snigger*

witch - however, due to my incantation you no longer have! hahahahaha.i have stored them in an amulet, somewhere on this island. don't worry, you can have the bird for whatever use he can be to you. find the amulet and you have your magic back. until then, you have only your wits!

*the cackling of the witches nearly deafens you both, then they are gone. you untie galp'arc and look around to get your bearings. you know the island is 12 miles by 15 miles. you are currently 1 mile off the south east coast, this could explain the extremely cold wind! good luck*

These witches are also known as the Dark Night Sisters and it is the women that rule/govern their society. Every Dark Night Sister has at least 6 husbands. Their husbands do all the housework and look after the children.


JFA

*no, these ones are called the Covern and there are 8 of them without husbands. this makes them very spiteful people!*

Ahh Creachy they are missing out on the power of the dark sisters they yield so much power that rule their own whole planet. They are ruthless and forever fighting and casting spells. They wear long black dresses and have very long pointed (very narrow) faces with very long pointed noses, and have long black hair. They walk around with their head up and their finger pointing to the ground.


The Covern - it reminds of a women's group I was a member of (some of them were widows) they spent all the time sniping at each other and took 30 minutes to discuss something that would have taken 2 minutes to discuss. Dos the Covern hit men with and organise coffee mornins/evenings where they snipe at each other and hit people with their s.

HDS: SPitefull old hags took my powers did they? Well, they didn't take my precious pet did they?

Mombassa: No boss they sure didin't!

HDS: So, galp'ark, where do you think the hags have put that amulet, eh?

no, they eat little babies for breakfast and puppies for lunch followed by kittens for dinner. they are awsome in their powers and could probably rule a galaxy if the PHENOM would let them! oh, and they don't sing either........much........well they chant a lot but that doesn't count.

galp'arc - well they wouldn't put it in the mansion, they don't go there, ever! i'd say it is in one of three places. the bracken woods, the temple of Helena or on Devils Climb Hill.

*clamber down a tree having fortunately missed the dogs*
(Is my ability to change into cat human half-cat affected or does that come under species if so which form am I stuck in? Does a vampire still have super human strength.)

Mombassa: Well that's lucky, I'm none of those critters.

HDS: take me to the place that is the most likely to have the amulet please.

HDS, I'm the patron saint of his divine shadows assassin (ie. Kai, )

I like lexx.

*Jumps down from a tree* Im a faerie half snow leopard

*blinks rapidly as she tries to picture this*

I just caught a real mouse in a humane mouse trap.

I like Lexx as well. My favorite ship is the Mega-Shadow, my favorite villian is His Divine Shadow, and my favorite good guy is Kia. I love those wrist thigs, what where they called?

whatever you had it is gone. so if you were a cat werekitty then you are stuck as that. vampires are now human and who is mombassa?

galp'arc - well the temple of helena is about 4 miles that way or we could go to Devils Climb which is about 10-11miles that way.

HDS: The four mile one sounds nice. Lets pay it a visit.

Mombassa: I am a Plaeryin Bol, I dwell in HDS's left eye socket. My tail serves as a neural conection. I can see for him, and I spit different venoms at the things that tick either or both of us off. I am a were-thunderbird (the bird not the car) but as I was not in a changed form when the powers were take away, I still dwell in HDS's eye socket, and I still spit venom at things.

HDS: what he said.

*fine*

*galp'arc begins walking towards the temple of helena. he does' not look as resigned about this journey as he has about the previous ones. in fact he may be humming to himself. the sun appears to be getting through the trees and the wind has become quite warm and carressing.*

*HDS walks after the galp'ark, Mombassa mumbling the lyrics to "Class" from the Chicago sound track, while he looks about.*

Please can I see your amulet?


thank you
