Chapter 5. Up, Up, and Away!

December 9, 2006

John shot a bolt of light from his hand. The bolt hit the smoke monster, and it staggered backwards. The creature flew into the air. John said, “if I have all these powers, maybe I can fly too!” He leapt up into the air and soared towards the monster. They fought in the air for many hours. Near the end of the fight, the smoke monster was getting the upper hand. The monster kept hitting John with smoke grenade after smoke grenade. But John hit him as hard as he could. The smoke monster disappeared, saying, “you have not seen the last of me!” John said,”I’m geting pretty good at this.”


Chapter 4: Virtue Names

December 1, 2006

After John stepped into the portal, everything went dark and lights started to appear.  Then he realized that all the lights were planets.  He started to fall toward a planet.  When he looked closer it appeared to be Earth.  He started falling closer and closer until a bright flash of light appeared and he fell unconscious.  When he woke up, his boss was standing over him.  John’s boss screeched  “What are you doing on the ground?  Get up and get to work!”  Then, out of nowhere, the smoke monster appeared.  John’s boss fainted.  John said, “Who are you?”  The smoke monster answered “I am Extinction, one of the many dark virtues of this world.”  Then John asked ”Why am I so important?”  The monster looked startled and said ”You mean you don’t know?”  The monster started cackling evilly.  John’s body started to glow.  John remarked  “No time like the present to find out.”
