Ok...here's the rules:
- This is a week at a time...Sunday to Saturday. Sundays start new cooperative fiction threads.
- You can't kill the characters introduced on Sunday until Saturday, if ever.
- Try not to screw the other writers up too badly...if they are heading to a valuable plot point, don't ruin it for them. Build, not destroy.
- It's ok to take the story a silly direction - if it makes sense. Bringing a magical flying aardvark into the middle of a sci-fi drama is not cool (unless you make it somewhat clear in your piece that it is a hologram or something).
- Be nice.
- If someone could....I'd really like to see this continue, but I won't always have time for posting it. Looking for a volunteer or two to make it continue.
The Fiction...part 1:
The last thing he saw before the darkness came was some unknown woman smiling at him. The smile was obviously forced, an attempt to be reassuring, when she really felt there wasn't a whole lot of hope.
"Great," Jim thought, "I'm being put under the knife and she..."
And he was out. An eternity later he tried to open his eyes, but felt them gummed together by something wet, cool and sticky. He hurt. His head was pounding, his gut felt pummelled and he couldn't hurt or see. He wasn't even quite sure he was still in control of his limbs. He imagined reaching up and pulling whatever was enclosing his head off, hoping that he did indeed have the muscle control to do so.
