Satire

Planet Tetro ~ Page 51
As the wind from Bulls Eye’s magical blow started to roar violently in a massive circle . It started to build up like a small twister . Suddenly the mist was being rapidly blown away . At once , our enemies were finally spotted ! The first thing that I noticed was that I was right about my first hunch . The fish guy was falling to the ground when our bat enemies caught him in the knick of time . I saw the last bits of cloud that got blown away . Our fish enemy was riding on a cloud in the mist ! They were tracking us using our sounds that we made with our feet . The loud sounds I described before , of us sloshing around . While they were primarily while being silent in the air themselves . The bat guy using his wings that made no sound when he flapped . The fish guy somehow creating a cloud to float on using water magic . It's a frightening strategy to have to deal with , but we have no choice .

The ground beneath us started to become damp and wet . Everything including the air became very moist . The air gradually became thick and misty . The thick mist made it impossible to see in front of us for more than 4 feet . It was also impossible for us to take quiet steps . As the ground became muddy and wet . Each step that we took was making a loud slush sound . Painting a loud target on our backs .

A macabre profession
I crept into the crypt intent upon a grim and grizzly task. Having scaled the walls of the cemetery after darkness and prized open the door to the vault, I crouched just inside, silently waiting and listening for any movement outside. I could hear nothing but the wind in the distant trees and saw no sign that my nocturnal visit had been noticed. Leaving the door open a fraction, I cautiously covered the crack with my coat before lighting a small dip and venturing further inside. I did not want any patrolling rozzer to look through the graveyard gates and notice a flickering light from within.

Overdue
"Lost?" Chief Librarian Zark closed his eyes in pained resignation and turned his erudite and, for the moment, exasperated face to the distant domed ceiling of the Cosmos Central Library. He opened his slash of a mouth to speak and then closed it again, resignedly.

I was waiting on a moment for him to become very aggressive . As he kept his stream up for longer than usual . I felt like it was my perfect time to strike . Time to use the opportunity that the shaman gave me . So I aimed with all of my focus where I thought that he would move to . I shot my electricity that I stored up at his stream which sent the electricity flowing through his water . The electricity then traveled into his mouth and throughout his entire body .

The Book Club
“Spinoza! Whose bright idea was it to choose Spinoza? Spinoza was Jeeves’s choice of light reading, if you recall, but Jeeves had a brain the size of the Albert Hall. What earthly chance have I got of analysing a single word Spinoza says? Or even understanding a single word he says. I’m a poet not a bleedin’ philosopher.”

Uh, Huh, Huh?
Alvin Pratt was so convinced that Elvis was still alive he had made it his life’s work to track him down. That he did so perpetually wearing the full gear and a lop-sided sneer, rather detracted from any credibility he might have carried, but Alvin was never one for short measures – except when dispensing drinks in the pub he ran with his wife, Effie.

Two Sides of the Coin
"Two sides of the same coin, you and me." The speaker sat scuffing his heels on a cloud top, sorting through a bag of sandwiches and trying his best not to listen to the attempts of his companion to master a relatively simple piece for harp and solo falsetto.

It was then at that time . I caught a glimpse of who was doing the water attacks while hiding in the forest . It was a fish guy wearing similar black bandit clothing as the bat . They must be a duo of a team , I wondered . They also must have the same idea the guys who jumped me before had . Sneaky cowards !Waiting to ambush adventurers when they are tired or wounded . The worst kind of beings to be alive in my eyes . Too bad we’re well rested and feeling better than ever . I was glad to finally see our water shooting foe . Even if it was slightly because of the water in my face . However the water stream attack he did sent me stumbling . These guys have very annoying and dangerous powers . We have to figure something out and fast .

We traveled for half of a day taking small rests before actually planning on camping . It was getting dark soon . We came upon a nice den that may have been abandoned . The den looks like it was made by a Drox ( Gerbil looking canines with the size and mannerisms of foxes from our world ) . The nest was a decent size , it was probably made for a large Drox family . Since we had extra protection there wasn't a need for us to be taking shifts sleeping tonight . After receiving gifts from their king himself . We felt perfectly comfortable around the soldiers we were once fighting .
