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

lucky im immune to, among other things, poison, cold, vampirism and death! you cant hurt me! i am pain incarnate! hahaah!

*brutally murders iceraven with a stake throught the heart*

*cupboard opens*

*rolls through, grabs UH and drags him out*

*door vanishes*

*bones still knitting together as I lie on the dumpster*

Uh... guys!!

Any chance of an air lift in that magical wardrobe?

*Ice begins to speak*

Yeah I'm fine, but I really wanted a cool fight scene with the jed...

*He is cut off as UH VERY unheroicly plunges a stake into his chest. He falls to the ground, not dead but quite paralyzed.*

*Kristine screams and turns to rush towards him as Liosh swoops down next to Ice's head standing protectivly next to him.*

* MaW appears next to the dumpster with one leg wrapped in various quick-heal medical supplies, grabs Inkwash and then vanishes again, taking Inkwash with him *

*pokes head out, obviously looking for Inkwash*

*Ice does varing amounts of nothing. Kristine finnaly reaches him and grabs the stake*

Sorry sweety this is gonna sting like hell

*She plants her foot and rips the chunk of wood out of Ice's breast. Ice now free of the paralyzing grip of the stake clutches his chest and rolls over into a fetal position shuddering and coughing.*

COUGH...ACK...Need...COUGH,ACK...Vitae
*With each of the coughs flecks of blood spatter to the ground. When Ice rolls over again his is in obvious pain and looks very weak. In the middle of his chest there is a rather large hole. No blood pous from it but you can quite clearly see into his chest. Little tendrals of blood and shadow wip about and poke and probe out of the hole. His lips are stained with blood and his eyes are sunken in*

*sea looks worried and kneels next to ice*

what can i do to help?

*frowns*

*wanders over and peers into dumpster*

Oh well...

*wanders back over towards cupboard*

*Kristine runs from the room only to return moments later with what looks like an IV packet of blood. She cuts the end off and holds it up to Ice's mouth. He drinks it down quickly and struggles to sit up. She hands him a couple more and gulps them down just as quickly. He rests with his back to the wall and the hole in his chest begins to close, slowly.*

Thank's Sea but I don't think you want to be the one to help me right now. Not with what I need at the moment. cough...cough.
Well it seems we've repelled them somewhat. Either that or they got what they came for. Either way I thank you all for your help.

*The hole closes and Ice struggles to get up but is only able to do it with Kristine's and Sea's help. He still looks very pale (even for him) and gaunt*

But they dared to invade my home and attack me. Also it seems that UH has drifted somewhat to the dark side. Perhaps we should try to recruit him. You are welcome to stay in my home, Sea, to rest and recoup. I'm sure that the armoury has sufficiant tools to repair your gun. I need perhaps a night or two to get my strength back then I'll be able to start the counter-attack. Please explore, the shades will show you your room should you wish to stay Sea, and the Garden look especialy beautifull at midnight.

*Ice hobbles off through the door with Kristines help*

* the post arrives. There's a letter from MaW *

"Dear Iceraven," it begins. "My leg is almost healed. I'm sure you'll be tremendously upset to know that there is no lasting damage. Despite this, however, I really didn't enjoy the pain and the bleeding part of being shot, so I suggest you start looking over your shoulder a lot, because one day soon I'm going to be there, and you won't enjoy that very much at all."

* once Iceraven finishes reading the letter, it begins to laugh maniacally, and then spontaneously combusts *

*Is quite worried*

















Not!
