Na, he'll die this time. A slow death to suffocation. Then his body will bloat up like a balloon, after which the gases will slowly leak out over time, leaving him looking a bit similar to a prune.

Yah, you guys shouldn't have made zoombie mad by guessing his plot so much. You've just doomed earth! Just wait until you find out what date it is in the story, and thats its all real!
Posted: 04 Apr 2007, 03:32
Actually, I haven't changed the plotline at all. Any annoyance at correct guesses is exaggerated.
Posted: 04 Apr 2007, 05:03
I think there will be a cyborg ninja pirate zombie outbreak on the Harbinger, and everyone will die.

Or Spartans save them from whatever plot hole they fall into.

but that would be madness... blasphemy...

Maddness?
----------------------------------------------------
Pix looked at the rapidly diminishing speck that was Jimmy. She looked at the roof, at the dead Xorquin. He still clutched his reaction pistol in one hand.
Pix moved out of gravity, jumped, then grabbed the door frame, using her momentum to swing herself back into the gravity field. She jumped, shooting out of the gravity field.
Jimmy felt something hard slam into his stomach. Arms wrapped around his midsection and he heard Pix's voice come through his speakers.
├óÔé¼┼ôGotcha!├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy laughed, pulling Pix up so he could see through the misshapen view plate. She still looked like a penguin in an overly large, green tuxedo.
├óÔé¼┼ôI could kiss you,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, grinning. He pressed his faceplate against Pix's. He locked eyes with hers.
├óÔé¼┼ôNow,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, holding up the reaction pistol in stubby, over large gloves. ├óÔé¼┼ôFor the daring escape!├óÔé¼┬Ø
She aimed the reaction gun upwards and pulled the trigger.
Nothing happened.
├óÔé¼┼ôOh sewage,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix muttered, looking at the pistol. A flashing red indicator with lots of squiggly lines next to it. Pix had the sinking feeling that it was Xorquin for ├óÔé¼┼ôEmpty.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôNo offense,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said. ├óÔé¼┼ôBut your plan is a little...├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWell...├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix looked up. They were drifting, slowly, towards Harbinger proper. ├óÔé¼┼ôWe're gonna hit Harbinger eventually.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôAnd find doors in how long?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy asked, feeling around his suit till he found the air valve. ├óÔé¼┼ôI gots...five hours of air.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWe can try,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, feeling defeated.
Something blocked out the stars in front of them. Jimmy's brow furrowed. Lights flashed on and Jimmy brought a hand up to cover his face plate.
Something wrapped around his leg. Jimmy grabbed for Pix as he was pulled towards the black shape. The lights faded as he was pulled through an air lock door. Gravity switched on and the door closed in front of them. Two Xorquin, one holding a large grabber that had it's claw locked around Jimmy's ankle.
The second Xorquin hauled Jimmy to his feet. A moment later, the door between the two Xorquin opened. Ambassador Jorquin stepped in
├óÔé¼┼ôPix,├óÔé¼┬Ø He said, taking Jimmy from the Xorquin guard. ├óÔé¼┼ôYou are a most troublesome little E.L-├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy reached up and flipped his face plate open.
Jorquin's mouth fell open. He looked completely ridiculous, his vocal organ hanging in the middle of his throat, the small balls that rattled together to make Xorquin language bunched together, making the organ look like a lumpy sack of...balls.
Jorquin closed his mouth, then dropped Jimmy.
He turned, somewhat shakily, to his guards. ├óÔé¼┼ôT...Take them to a...back to prison.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôYes sir,├óÔé¼┬Ø The guard said, nodding.
He picked up Jimmy by the scruff of his neck and was about to reach for Pix when she whipped a small bullet pistol from the belt pouch of her suit and blew the guard's trigger finger off.
The guard jerked back, rattling loudly. Pix fired twice more, blowing hole through his chest. The guard collapsed. Jorquin reached for his side arm when Jimmy ran forward, slamming shoulder first into the massive Ambassador.
Jorquin batted him aside with his free hand, sending Jimmy flying into the wall. He snapped his pistol to the side and fired at Pix. She jerked to the side, but a laser bolt still burned it's way through her upper right shoulder. Pix yelped, dropping her gun. Jimmy reached for it, but Jorquin slammed his hand down on Jimmy's.
Jimmy's thumb broke.
Jorquin brought his foot back, away from Jimmy's hand.
Then he brought it forward, into his face.
├óÔé¼┼ôAll right,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin said to himself, pressing the laser pistol's barrel into Jimmy's temple. ├óÔé¼┼ôThis time, I won't miss.├óÔé¼┬Ø
A shout made him turn his head to the side, just in time to see Pix charge him. Instead of going for Jorquin's center of mass, like Jimmy had. Instead she aimed her shoulder for Jorquin's throat.
She smacked him right in the sack. Jorquin reeled back, spraying a brackish liquid with unidentifiable chunks in it. Pix took the time to grab her pistol and snap it round to bear on Jorquin's head.
├óÔé¼┼ôPix, wait!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy wheezed, feeling his broken nose and broken thumb. ├óÔé¼┼ôTie him up...let's see how big this ship is.├óÔé¼┬Ø
As it turns out, not very big. There was only one other Xorquin in the entire ship, a terrified technician who had locked himself in the closet when he heard the gunshots and rattling. Pix tied him up as well.
By the time Pix and Jimmy returned to the airlock, Jorquin was starting to recover from his throat punch. Pix smashed her fist into the side of Jorquin's head. He groaned and went out again.
├óÔé¼┼ôSo...what do we do with him?├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix asked, looking at Jimmy.
├óÔé¼┼ôWell,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, grinning. ├óÔé¼┼ôI...I have an idea.├óÔé¼┬Ø
---------
Jorquin woke up. He blinked his outer eyes, then his inner eye, and looked around. He was in the air lock, wearing a space suit...he could feel the rumble of the engines, so the shuttle was moving. Jorquin stood and found his arms were bound behind his back with the same straps he had meant for that E.L.F bitch.
Jorquin grimaced, walking to the airlock door. It was closed. A moment later and Jimmy's head appeared in the window.
├óÔé¼┼ôLeonite!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin rattled. ├óÔé¼┼ôOpen this door!├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy threw his head back and laughed. Jorquin saw that he was wearing the skintight space suit. What-
The door opened. Jimmy jammed his pistol on Jorquin's face, forcing him backwards, deeper into the airlock.
├óÔé¼┼ôWait!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin stammered, backing against the outer air lock door. The door behind Jimmy closed and Jorquin heard the air rush out of the room. ├óÔé¼┼ôWait, don't-├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôDon't?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy asked, his voice quite. ├óÔé¼┼ôDon't what?├óÔé¼┬Ø
The door behind Jorquin opened. Light filled the room. Jorquin glanced over his shoulder and saw the massive pillar of flames and radiation that was Harbinger's exhaust.
├óÔé¼┼ôWh..wait!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin stammered. The shuttle hung in the space above the engine, in the safe zone that Xorquin scientists had checked out. But it was very close to the edge, where radiation cut an invisible, deadly line in space. ├óÔé¼┼ôThis...this...I'm a diplomat! If you kill me, It'll start a war. It'll be your fault! Our allies will attack you as well, your own allies will-├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôIf I kill you,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, grinning. ├óÔé¼┼ôThey'll find the bombs.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWe haven't set the bombs,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin lied, trying not to blink. ├óÔé¼┼ôI have diplomatic immunity.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy just smiled, aiming the gun higher, straight at Jorquin's center eye.
├óÔé¼┼ôThis...this is madness!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin shouted.
├óÔé¼┼ôMadness?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy brought his food up and slammed it into Joaquin's chest. Jorquin flew out of the air lock, flying through space...till a sudden jerk on his waist stopped him.
Jimmy held the air hose he had connected to Jorquin's suit. ├óÔé¼┼ôNow,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said. ├óÔé¼┼ôPix calculated that you have an hours time before the radiation is lethal. But we can make it shorter than that...shorter-├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy clenched down on the air tube. He heard Jorquin's breathing go all funny for a while. Jimmy let air flew through the tube again.
├óÔé¼┼ôNow,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said. ├óÔé¼┼ôWhat was your plan again?├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôFine! Fine!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin shouted, coughing. ├óÔé¼┼ôOkay, listen...we were planning to blow part of the cover on the engine, hit your home with some hard gamma rays. Happy, you gods damned mammal!├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôYes,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, smiling.
├óÔé¼┼ôAnd what are you going to do about it, huh? It's my word against yours!├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin started laughing.
├óÔé¼┼ôActually,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said. ├óÔé¼┼ôIt's my word and your word...against your word.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jorquin was silent.
├óÔé¼┼ôPix...do you have that recording?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy asked.
├óÔé¼┼ôSure do,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, scratching her ear. Her antennae sparked as she grinned. ├óÔé¼┼ôI got it.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy glanced at Jorquin and started reeling him in.
├óÔé¼┼ôHonor's end,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jorquin said.
├óÔé¼┼ôWhat?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy paused in his reeling.
Jorquin reached up and flipped his face plate open. Air rushed out and his body started twitching. Then the twitching stopped.
Jimmy blinked. Then he stopped reeling in the body and closed the air lock door.
-----
├óÔé¼┼ôAnna!├óÔé¼┬Ø Un said, standing up, his eyes wide. Un was getting used to some strange things. But Anna popping open a hatch in the floor which had been seamless up to that point and emerging with a teenage girl with tattoos on her neck, arms and shoulders, was one of the things he wasn't used too.
├óÔé¼┼ôYeah, listen,├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna said, pulling a piece of scrap paper out of his pocket. ├óÔé¼┼ôInput these into the teleport and get us some guns!├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôThese...├óÔé¼┬Ø Un read the coordinates, his brow furrowing. ├óÔé¼┼ôThese are outside the ship!├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôGet us spacesuits then!├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna snapped.
├óÔé¼┼ôOkay...where did you get these-├óÔé¼┬Ø Un started.
├óÔé¼┼ôNo time!├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna shouted.
A few minuets later and Un shoved a space suit and a bundle of guns at Anna. Metch glowered at him.
├óÔé¼┼ôWhat about me, you daemon man!├óÔé¼┬Ø Metch shouted, her face reddening.
├óÔé¼┼ôYou won't do well in a space suit,├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna said. She started pulling the suit on. ├óÔé¼┼ôSo you get to hold down the fort.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Metch started swearing at Anna. She kept swearing at Anna till Anna stepped into the teleport.
-----
Jimmy stepped out of the air lock, pulling his helmet off. Pix stood in the hallway, grinning. ├óÔé¼┼ôSo,├óÔé¼┬Ø She said, ├óÔé¼┼ôWhere's Jorquin?├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôHe...committed suicide,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, his face white.
├óÔé¼┼ôJimmy...for a man willing to strangle a confession out of someone, you seem pretty blown about his death.├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, putting her hands on her hips. ├óÔé¼┼ôJorquin was planning to kill fifty million people.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôThere are only thirty million humans,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy muttered.
├óÔé¼┼ôAnd the Arachnos, our neighbors! Remember!├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôRight, right,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, blinking. Pix sighed, putting her hands on his shoulders.
├óÔé¼┼ôNow all we got to do is drive this back to Harbinger,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, grinning. ├óÔé¼┼ôAnd this story is over.├óÔé¼┬Ø
------
The shuttle docked with the Xorquin control center. Jimmy and Pix held some of the weapons they had liberated from the shuttle's gun weapons. They stood near the air lock door, holding the plasma guns. Pix caught Jimmy's eye.
├óÔé¼┼ôSo we hold them up...and they get us home, right?├óÔé¼┬Ø She asked.
Jimmy nodded. ├óÔé¼┼ôSounds like a plan.├óÔé¼┬Ø
They waited for the airlock to finish cycling.
The door opened.
Jimmy and Pix burst into the room, brandishing their guns.
And they saw a Xorquin holding a spacesuited Anna, pressing a plasma pistol in her head.
├óÔé¼┼ôHi guys,├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna said, grinning meekly. ├óÔé¼┼ôHows it going?├óÔé¼┬Ø
----------------------------------------------------

What's with the double posting?
Posted: 04 Apr 2007, 07:04
its the madness in your sparta...
Posted: 04 Apr 2007, 17:43
├óÔé¼┼ôDrop your guns,├óÔé¼┬Ø A Xorquin guard said.
Jimmy dropped his rifle. Pix, a moment later, did the same.
├óÔé¼┼ôNow, put your hands up,├óÔé¼┬Ø The Xorquin said.
Pix and Jimmy brought their hands up, looking at their feet.
The Xorquin grinned and gestured to his comrade to tie Jimmy and Pix up. His comrade was about to take a step forward when Metch appeared with a flash of purple light and a loud clap.
Pix's momentary elation was dashed when she saw that Metch held a spear.
A spear?
The Xorquin looked at Metch, swinging Anna around between him and Metch. Metch stabbed her spear forward, neatly pushing it through the Xorquin's brain. The second Xorquin fired a shot, but Metch dodged to the side, the laser scotching some of her hair off. She snapped her spear around and smashed the but against the Xorquin's head. The spear broke.
Metch smiled at the Xorquin. Then she dived to the side before another flurry of lasers blasted through where she had stood. Metch ducked under a computer console as the Xorquin tried to grab her and pull her out. He grabbed her ankle and dragged her open.
Pix, Jimmy and Anna shot the Xorquin in the back. No one was sure who had fired first, but they were all sure that the Xorquin was quite dead.
├óÔé¼┼ôWell,├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna said, looking at Jimmy. ├óÔé¼┼ôThat's the end of that, isn't it?├óÔé¼┬Ø
Chapter Eight: The End
Leonite stood in the waiting hall outside of the Council Townie, clutching the hem of his shirt. He strained his head, trying to look everywhere at once. The waiting hall was mostly empty, as the Townie hadn't been there for a good while. And when it arrived...there would be Jimmy. His Jimmy.
The Townie arrived with a ponderous grinding sound. An entire city, rising on a platform meant to move...who knows what around the ship before it was occupied by vagrants of the Xorquin and humanity. The gates opened and a mass of people moved out of the townie and into the hall. Leonite let them wash past him, not caring who passed him as long as it wasn't Jimmy.
Then he saw him. Jimmy...Leonite blinked. He had seen him before, only a week ago. Has it been a week? A week of panic, a week of arguing with that lying bastard Xorquin. A week of mourning. But now Jimmy didn't look like a boy anymore. It wasn't that he was older, he wasn't taller. Yes, he had muscles, new ones. But what had changed was his bearing. He was stronger, taller...more confident.
Then the alarms went off. Three security guards, all Yetel, rushed into the main hall. They surrounded Jimmy, Pix and his two companions, the two strange women.
├óÔé¼┼ôFreeze!├óÔé¼┬Ø The lead Yetel shouted, snapping his rifle up.
├óÔé¼┼ôWhoa!├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite walked forward. ├óÔé¼┼ôThat's my son!├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôHis biology reads as one of the fifty three banned mutants. Hellion class, I believe.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôOh that,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, grinning. ├óÔé¼┼ôThat...that's nothing.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôThe genetic scanner doesn't say it's nothing!├óÔé¼┬Ø The lead Yetel shouted.
├óÔé¼┼ôHold!├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, walking between the Yetel and Jimmy. ├óÔé¼┼ôThis is my son! Test my genetics, test his genetics. We're a match.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWell...yes sir, sir Leonite,├óÔé¼┬Ø The Yetel said, nodding. He took out his genetic scanner and started the tests. After a few moments, he nodded. ├óÔé¼┼ôYes, that checks out. You're free to go.├óÔé¼┬Ø
The Yetel walked off, probably to bother someone else. Jimmy looked at his father and smiled ruefully.
Leonite reached forward and wrapped his arms around his son. ├óÔé¼┼ôIt's good to see you.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôSame here, dad,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, hugging Leonite back.
Anna coughed. ├óÔé¼┼ôI'll take these kids to the hotel,├óÔé¼┬Ø She said. Metch opened her mouth to say she wasn't a kid. Anna grabbed and twisted her ear, hauling Metch away. Pix glanced wistfully at Jimmy, then followed Anna.
├óÔé¼┼ôSo,├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, look up and down his son. ├óÔé¼┼ôI'm very proud of you.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôThanks,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, looking away.
├óÔé¼┼ôCome on, let's walk,├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, walking, Jimmy walking along with him. ├óÔé¼┼ôSo this is the end of the fifth conflict between Humanity and the Xorquin. Five, with us victorious every time.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy smiled.
├óÔé¼┼ôDid you know, this is the closet the Xorquin have come to actually destroying humanity. Most of the time, they just attack a little too early and we cut them to pieces. But...well...the Xorquin always seem to mess up at the end-├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWait, wait,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, shaking his head. He stopped walking. ├óÔé¼┼ôThere is one problem. The Xorquin were helped by someone else.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôI know,├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, frowning. Then he brightened. ├óÔé¼┼ôBut without actual forces, he or she will be unable to move in open.├óÔé¼┬Ø
------
├óÔé¼┼ôAnd here's your hotel suite,├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, clapping Jimmy on the back. The hotel was magnificent, to say the least. It filled up more then a few of the glimmering white upper level hallway. The doors were gleaming, the walls were gleaming and the floor was gleaming. Well dressed aliens walked up and down the hallways, nodding politely to Jimmy and Leonite as they passed.
├óÔé¼┼ôSo, Anna's room is one that way,├óÔé¼┬Ø Leonite said, ├óÔé¼┼ôAnd Metch is over there, if you need to talk to them.├óÔé¼┬Ø
He turned and walked away. ├óÔé¼┼ôEnjoy your rest,├óÔé¼┬Ø He said. Then he turned. ├óÔé¼┼ôAnd be sure to rest. It's going to be a long talk in front of the Council tomorrow.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWait,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said as his father walked around the corner. ├óÔé¼┼ôWait, wheres Pix's room?├óÔé¼┬Ø
Leonite was already out of earshot.
Jimmy sighed and turned back to his hotel room. He opened the door. The room inside was dark, very dark. Jimmy frowned, stepping inside. The light that spilled in from the hallway was only enough to light pat of the floor and the opposite wall. The bed and the rest of the room was completely dark.
Jimmy stepped in, reaching for the light switch. The door closed and the only light source he had vanished. Jimmy kept groping for the light switch. His finger brushed something warm and soft. A hand closed on his fingers.
├óÔé¼┼ôHey,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix murmured, stepping forward. Jimmy saw her form, his eyes adjusting to the dark light.
├óÔé¼┼ôHi,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy gulped. Pix stood there.
├óÔé¼┼ôWell?├óÔé¼┬Ø She asked.
├óÔé¼┼ôAre you going to turn on the lights?├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix asked, stepping closer. Jimmy noticed how very soft her fingers were...
├óÔé¼┼ôUh,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy gulped. He reached and found the light. The light flickered on. He looked down, then up. Pix was naked. Completely naked. Jimmy stared for a long while, his jaw hanging open.
Pix blushed, crossing her arms over her chest. ├óÔé¼┼ôWell...are you going to do anything, or just stand there?├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôUh,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy blinked. ├óÔé¼┼ôW...Er...I...├óÔé¼┬Ø
Pix sighed, looping her arm around Jimmy's neck, pulling him closer. Jimmy got a clue and kissed her. Pix backed into the bed, falling into it, pulling Jimmy down with her. They rolled over and ended up with Jimmy on the top.
├óÔé¼┼ôSay,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, ├óÔé¼┼ôYou never did unlock that file.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôRight,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said.
├óÔé¼┼ôBut I did do a Internet search on Karma Sutra,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, blushing. ├óÔé¼┼ôI think we should unlock the file.├óÔé¼┬Ø
├óÔé¼┼ôWhy? What could it have to do with right now?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy asked.
├óÔé¼┼ôJust open the file and find out,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said, grinning. She leaned over and kissed Jimmy on the nose.
├óÔé¼┼ôFine,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy gulped. ├óÔé¼┼ôKarma-├óÔé¼┬Ø
The phone rang. Jimmy jerked his head aside, looking at the phone. ├óÔé¼┼ôAhh, let it ring,├óÔé¼┬Ø Pix said.
├óÔé¼┼ôNo, it might be important,├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy said, sliding out from under Pix. Pix sighed, pulling the blankets over her body.
Jimmy picked the phone and slipped it over his ears.
├óÔé¼┼ôHello?├óÔé¼┬Ø Jimmy asked.
├óÔé¼┼ôYou think this is over?├óÔé¼┬Ø Fox asked. ├óÔé¼┼ôYou haven't got a prayer Human.├óÔé¼┬Ø
Jimmy dropped his rifle. Pix, a moment later, did the same.
├óÔé¼┼ôNow, put your hands up,├óÔé¼┬Ø The Xorquin said.
Pix and Jimmy brought their hands up, looking at their feet.
The Xorquin grinned and gestured to his comrade to tie Jimmy and Pix up. His comrade was about to take a step forward when Metch appeared with a flash of purple light and a loud clap.
Pix's momentary elation was dashed when she saw that Metch held a spear.
A spear?
The Xorquin looked at Metch, swinging Anna around between him and Metch. Metch stabbed her spear forward, neatly pushing it through the Xorquin's brain. The second Xorquin fired a shot, but Metch dodged to the side, the laser scotching some of her hair off. She snapped her spear around and smashed the but against the Xorquin's head. The spear broke.
Metch smiled at the Xorquin. Then she dived to the side before another flurry of lasers blasted through where she had stood. Metch ducked under a computer console as the Xorquin tried to grab her and pull her out. He grabbed her ankle and dragged her open.
Pix, Jimmy and Anna shot the Xorquin in the back. No one was sure who had fired first, but they were all sure that the Xorquin was quite dead.
├óÔé¼┼ôWell,├óÔé¼┬Ø Anna said, looking at Jimmy. ├óÔé¼┼ôThat's the end of that, isn't it?├óÔé¼┬Ø

Soooo there's no episode today.
Oh and the last episode...well here's the problem with posting at 1 in the morning...see...er...well, I spent most of today re-writing that part in my head and came up with a much better, longer scene.
Then I came home, ready to re-write...and I found I'd already posted it. Sooooo I'll just...let that stay that way. The ending is the same in both versions. And this is just one more incentive to buy the remastered version when I finish that and get it sold and all that fun stuff...
Oh and the REAL reason why there is no episode today is because it was the FHS Pops Concert, and I play Tuba in the FHS Wind Ensamble, so I spent 5-9 at the concert, selling tickets (Except we forgot to print tickets, so we used hand stamps), playing music and listening to the other groups.
Oh and there was a half hour long speeach made by our band instructer and good ten minuts was him thanking me for being an awsome guy. And I was a little suprised about that. And it gave me the warm fuzzies for the rest of the preformance, so we did extra super good.
Soooooo now I'm going to bed.
Oh, and here's an FYI on the next chapter.
You're all going to die.
Screaming.
Thank you, that is all.

Wow, Zoombie actually needs sleep?
