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

Just an idea Ive had for a while...If youve got any short stories youve written that youd like to share with us,please do

Theres one or two Ive written myself (quite a few years ago) tht Id just need read/helped brushing up a bit first,so if anyone wants to help with that? would be most appreciated too.

The PHENOM part 1


The Beginning



In the beginning there was nothing. No. In the beginning there was Darkness. Before any physical beings existed, before any light was shed, there was Darkness and all it beheld. Hideous creatures that if seen in light would drive a man insane. Creatures of shadow. Creatures of malice. Among these creatures lived a being that had wisdom in its rage. A being that sought to rule the Darkness. And He did. For a very, very long time. Over the eons the army of Shadows grew, and grew. They became ordered and ruthless in their tactics of death. But they had no-one to fight. They could kill each other, but even they knew that was pointless. So for millenia they sat and waited. Nothing came. Their ruler saw their discontent, and in a rare show of empathy, he felt for them. He felt for them so much he decided to give them an enemy. He stood before his throne and thrust his hands to the blackened sky and called forth, "LET THERE BE LIGHT", and there was light. The creatures of shadow recoiled away from it, fearing what harm it could do and hating it for this. Their cold hearts were filled with instant vengeance to seek and destroy all and any that aid this invader of their dark realm. And that is what they still do to this day. Their leader, the shadow that showed emotion walks the lit earth in search of the answer to 'why'. They, the minions of the Darkness just call him, PHENOM.

Not as much as I hate it ill bet

Sounded grumpy..thatll be the hangover though yeah?


Some kids just broke the outside of my window with their football!(double glazed)

id have to write it first!..thats why i said id always thought the dream would make a good story.. lots of good ideas but crap atactuallly writing them/expressing them me.. maybe i should just be someones muse or someting..

'note to self'..take feather duster to hyde park..

i am not going to the meet now.

Fair enough ..
should be a good laugh.Thats if i still get to go myself..hope so though.

Dunno when ill get thoe stories done..gonna need some help getting the shadows one to comeout right.. excellent dream that was..though very very scary..

email what you can write to me. put in emotions and scenery and i will see if i can freak it up some more

That one doesnt need "freaked up" anymore..its just translating it from a dream to a story in the first place..
