 “What the hell is going on?!” Tim Griffin exclaimed. He’s been sitting in the darn meeting room for a whole seven days with no coffee, he was bound to explode. The darn astronomer smiled patiently at him and his colleagues while continuing to explain.

“Ok, well as I was going to say Mr. Vice President we are not sure how this is happening but a planet has been forming for the past seven days right outside our solar ring and has just completed.”

“We have done tests and it is indeed a planet though the energy readings are off the charts,” explained Oliver whatever his name was.

At this point Tim was having a severe headache and the lack of sleep was going to be the least of his problems when he had to explain this to the President. His term had just started and he could already feel his hair falling off. Apparently a miracle was happening he just hoped it had nothing to do with them. But of course the fast sons of an itch would make it their business when the found out, they would want to investigate off course and all the work would fall on his lap, democratic country his ass.

“Some energy signatures are unknown to us at the moment and the world is ten times bigger than Earth,” as he said that he showed us the recorded images of how the world formed.

Suddenly everything just stopped; Oliver became a statue along with the rest of the world as it became painted in shades of black and white.

“Hello there people, David talking here and I want u all to help me with something I have been working on for years, heh heh,” the voice in echoed all around him and Tim swore he saw and felt the vibrations of it moving through the stilled air.

“I want you all to prepare for a game I have come up with and off course there are prizes just as the losers won’t be happy im sure the winner will but if u don’t want to participate YOU WILL BE EXTERMINATED JUST LIKE THIS,”

Suddenly the world began to move again but before they could delight in the freedom of it everyone begun to feel extreme pain. Tim knew he was not alone at that moment of being slowly disintegrated as he heard the screams of anguish all around him as they melted. Tim could feel his skin peeling of him to dorm a puddle of flesh around him while his had practically worked overtime to needlessly rush blood to the already useless skin.

‘I should have ravished my wife,’ he thought while his mind almost became blank with the pain. An itchy feeling overcame the pain as he saw his skin start to regrow as did the rest of the people in the room. As he was finally relieved of feeling anything the world became shades of black and white again like those old television shows.

“Okay now that, that is over we can get to the fun part, as some of you may know already unfortunately, I have made a world for my game and I want you all to participate in a rat race for me now here are the rules, drum roll please,” the insanity in that voice would have caused him to piss himself if he wasn’t frozen already.

“Clearing of throat, now for the rules:

Rule 1:             Game starts in a century

Rule 2: Participants can be chosen by their world

Rule 3: Participants must be twenty years old and under

Rule 4: No more than 500 participants per world

Rule 5: Participants must be brought on the chosen date at the portal to be transported

Rule 6:  Participants can only bring their weight in goods

Prizes are, it going to be good folks: all the resources of the losing worlds will be available used by the winner’s world meaning all eight losing worlds will be enslaved by the winner’s world.

Now prepare well darlings for the games will be harsh and deadly LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN”

As he or it said that the world gained colour again while a timer was seen at the top of Tim’s vision. Tim sat there in absolute shock for what felt like hours the he looked down at his arm.

“Well at least I will have baby smooth skin now,” then he begun to laugh not a laugh of joy but of plain insanity.
