Us old-timers will have to get the stones out of our collective rear ends to actually enter!

I think I'll wait* on mine and see who else new we can bring in and let them have a go. I'll still write one though. :)
EDIT: Nevermind... I had an idea and wrote it instead of waiting!


*= I haven't even had time to goof off since I got back. Busy, busy!

Save the Brandy

Counselor Hargathen was sitting at his desk sipping a drink, having just finished a video call. Rose timed the shot so it entered the back of his head at the same time he set the glass on the table. Not a drop of the Lavian Brandy was spilled. Blood and brains splattered forward, then continued to pool on the desk and drip off.

An hour later, she was sitting in a high-rise rotating restaurant with Seamus, eating, drinking and enjoying the city lights twinkle below them.

Miles away, the faint flickering of GalCop lights lay scattered around the Counselor's house.

Thanks for welcome guys. By Jiminy the stardard here is high. To keep up in future events I think I'll start outsourcing to a government thinktank, or using performance enhancing drugs ....in fact probably both. Is this against the rules? I've pored over them but can't find anything specific on it.

I think the main rule is that you can't bribe Psykokow with scotch and haggis. And don't go near his feet.

Beneath the cities phosphorus night

The cities lights entices you with a false electric glow, promising unearthly delights for the excited reveller.

Anything is available for the right price...

One figure scurries through the thronged crowds, heading with a alcoholic, unsteady gait towards a illuminated neon sign.

Thargoid & Fer-De-lance

The door bursts as he strides inside triumphantly.

Silence descends...

"Get out you porridge stained kilted buffoon, There's Haggis still welded to the ceiling from last time."

"You're barred"

"Jings an' crivvens" comes the despondent reply

The forlorn figure turns and leaves into the now harsh inhospitable night.

"My round" Frank cries."

The revelling returns.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

At the neon-lit spaceport, a sweating, panting youth bursts through a group of miners and runs to the gate-guard frantically waving a ticket for the already boarded off-world shuttle.
Nervously glancing backwards, the youth exclaims “Gotta get on this shuttle, pleeeasse Sergeant”
Keen to avoid trouble with the already murmuring miners and amused by the mistaken rank, the guard acceded.
Gaining his seat as the shuttle lifts off, the youth watches the impotent arrival of the local police. The flashing blue of their lights mingling with the receding city lights as he leaves Reorte and his cold, dead parents forever.

Stage Dive

The planets gravitational pull tightens its grip around my crippled cobra, squeezing more air out with a painful whistling hiss.
The battle for my cargo was fierce and I won… the pirates left empty handed.
Then the power distributer blew, one by one my systems failed.
The remlok counter lights the cockpit.
Silence
No alarms squeal into life as the planet’s atmosphere burns around me.
Then a strange roar as I break through, subsiding to a loud whooshing.
They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway, its true.
They are stunning at night.
I only hope they can rebuild.

THE LIGHTS OF LONDON

Beneath the shuttle, the lights of London disapear rapidly through the thinning cloud. In the dark between those lights, Commander Bell's father lays newly entombed. Bell's heart lightens as the lights of heaven above begin to appear; there grandeur seems to silence all human concerns. A particular star he can rapidly identify; A sprawling anarchy thrives on a cold rock orbiting that star, breeding pirates like flies . He will return there soon. In the light of stars, white, blue, orange, yellow, and red, he has send many to a fiery grave without a thought, and he will send many more.

Damn it's filling up fast.

If you want to be included in the poll vote this week, I'd get a wriggle on if I was you. :D
