www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic.php?id=369057I lay in the cool moist grass as the fireflys pulsed around me. The cool summer air drifted over my face, feeling almost like a streem it was refreshing after the hot day. I stared up into the night sky, looking beyond the stars I let the empty infinity of space envelope me, hold me. The emptiness in side me bonded with the night untill I could no longer feel the earth beneath me. It had been one of those weeks and this feeling of complete apathy that had gripped completly took hold. All the trivial bull nuts, all the people, they didn't matter they just floated off into space, fading from my mind. One of the firefly's hummed over my chest. I picked up one of my hands and held it out. Under the pale moonlight it looked soft and gray. The firefly came down and landed on my finger. Its glow iluminated my finger and a serenity filled me like I had never felt before. I could have laid there for the rest of my life. And then a commet came and everybody died. The End

Well it just so happened that the commet that destroyed life on earth died as well. You see this commet happened to be alive, it had no control over its movements whatsoever, but it still managed to think. For billions of years it had studied its surroundings and come up with hypothesis and such. It was easily the most intelligent being in the universe and all the scientists that had studied it on other planets were so heart broken by the sudden loss of such a wonderful creature that they all commited suicide.
It was a sad day in the universe, for without scientists the univers sunk into a dark age. Dark as the infinite reaches of space which swallowed all that ever lived in it.

And then just to be spiteful the universe decided to blow up. It blew up and cast its attoms, quarks, electrons, and photons into its infinite reaches which no longer existed.
And years later the clumps of left over universe merged to once again create the big bang and all was put right as over millions of years the universe rebuilt itself. Earth once again came into being revolving around the sun and I lived out the same 18 years untill I ended up lying in the grass one last time...

Well, there was this problem because when I went to rinse wash repeat I was so angry I repeated then rinsed then washed. So I ended up getting soap in my eyes and well then I went to wait in the grass just like I did last time, but something in the soap had screwed up things I couldn't manage to be quite so apathetic and when I vaguely made out the form of the commet I asked it to wait for the soap to move and well, the truth is no one had ever tried to talk to the commet this life or any of its previous ones so it was quite startled and forgot to hit the earth.
So now the whole process has been screwed up. And I am still sitting there in the grass waiting for the world to end.

Well the world decided to give me the quintesential middle finger. And it did it in three-d... Which I have to say is amazing in itself. As a way of saying screw you mother nature ordered all its fireflys to attack me, and so it turned out that I was the only one that died that night and the universe continued its happy little life and all the scientists lived and died and the commet span about not really doing anything but soaking up knowledge which it would never share.

Of course you all the way of the universe by now, so thinking that I was gone for good would be complete bull nuts. And as luck would have it, I came back. But by this time the people of earth had been destroyed so many times that there was really very little exciting about it. And so they stopped caring, untill one day the realized how their destroyer spelled his name. You see Commet is much like comet in our language, but the commet's refusal to conform to our language angered the people of earth and so they sought to blow the creature out of the sky. And they decided to do it with nukes.
So as I was laying on the grass there were a hundred others around me all gathered for the spectacle, and the fireflys were gone... mother nature had decided to scrap them this time around, but they'd be back. I knew they would.
The first rocket shot off at the commet and blew up withing our atmosphere while ten others blew up on the launch pad and one found its mark. So now half our population was dead and instead of getting sad the scientests got really mad. So they killed us. And blew up our world as a statement.

And then the alien rights activists from the planets got mad at the scientists for trampling on our right to exist. And though the scientists asked what about the Commet's rights, the activists were to busy petitioning the universal government to care. On top of that they already had signs, and once you have signs there is no turning back because a sign without a holder is very sad thing.
Well the scientists could no longer sleep at night from the constant looping protester's chants that were blaring out the speakers now hoverning in orbit around the planets. It just so happened that this chant had built up a wave of energy and managed to create harmonic fusion.
If you give it some time and think about how many planets there are that happen to have scientists on them and the liklihood of them being spread throughout the universe. The fact that they managed to create harmonic fusion was something in itself, but the fact that they did in such a way that it destroyed all the universe was really quite Ironic. And so the activists were responsible for the destruction of life for the forth time.

Well of course the universe recreated itself or tried, but not giving into the demands of the quarks who were quite unhappy in their constant shift and dispersal all over the d**n place. And so every day was declared to be tuesday except every other friday when the quarks would get to have donuts. But then the threads were kind of angry, but no one likes threads so the quarks ignored them.
And the universe rebuilt itself and I was laying there in the grass at the unhappy age of 18 and the firefly was buzzing around my head as the Commet streaked towards earth across its abyss of a home. Well now the universe was bent on not having itself destroyed unless it was the cause so it messed with its law of physics at the last second causing the Commet to be pulled of course and miss the earth by just enough. Well the Commets gravity with the moon which desided to go galavanting off around the solar system. Without the tides the weather dramatically shifted on earth and everyone died. Then the moon crashed into earth for kicks and giggles.
Meanwhile on a larger scale the gravitation disturbance had f**ked up the universe in general and getting depressed and upon seeing the activists getting ready to protest again the universe decided to blow up prematurly.

Now all of this would have likely continued in a vicious never ending cycle if it weren't for the Commet. You see everytime that the commet was recreated it realized at somepoint that it would eventually be part of not only my destruction, but its destruction and the destruction of the rest of the world. And so it did what any good commet does, it learned. It learned, and it learned, and it learned untill it had learned so much that it came up with a way to solve everyone's problems.
The commet decided it would shift to another dimension where it could move and then it could manipulate time-space to keep everyone alive untill they were supposed to die. Well the experiment worked completly as the commet was looping around a particularly large star it winked out of our existance and appeared in another.
The scientists were once again depressed at the loss of such a creature, but simultaneously interested beyond belief in the idea of dimensional jumps and so they became depressed work-aholics. The activists had nothing left to protest with the universe no longer in jepardy and I was content to sit in the grass at the unhappy age of 18 as the firefly's circled around me.
There was a tree not to far off. It was an older tree and its branches twisted up and about to where the masses of russling leaves lay flutering in the wind. The stars were out and I continued to stare into the depths of space letting the deepness of infinity take me in its arms. And so the wind played across my face carrying the sounds of the grass and the fireflys and the ruslling of the leaves.
I fell asleep.

And as I was sleeping I had a dreem. It was the dream of dreams and it took me upon its wings and carried me off to far off lands and showed me the meaning of life and all that had gone and all that was to come and in that split second that I was about to wake up I came upon the realization that I never would. At least not this time, for at that moment the Commet winked back into existance and crashed into the earth.
I didn't blaim it for I knew of the dimension it had traveled to. Afterall, who would want to live a land that discriminated and hunted Commet's and sold them on the black marcket just to look more shady. And so I died and the depressed scientists were happy, but unhappy and so wholly intrigued that they gave up on helping people and lived lives of solitude. They eventually died in a freak accident in which they were attempting interdimensional travel. The accident not only destroyed the universe, but took several dimensions along with it.
Of course two entities knew what had gone wrong and they had both died years earlier in a freak interdimensional accident that only repeated what had happened before.

But time heals all wounds, even the ones that should have been left open in the first place. The dimensions settled and went back to normal, whatever it was that the universe thought was normal. And so I lay once again in the grass and stared up at the stars. Up at the stars I stared and I got an idea, the dream came back to me and every existance came back to me and I waited and sure enough down came the commet. And all the innocents of the universe went their way. As I stared at the stars it cam to me and the commet came to me. And the universe united and blew itself apart and it came to me.
The repetition. The same old things over and over, nothing was new... and the world ended again and again and again. Untill the end of time
The beggining.
Feel free to blatanlty ignore this entire thread... I had a rough week... just tried to blow it out on something...
