[ST Elitemike]

"F*** you" and then walks away. Josh then...

[St Thal]

slowly gets to his feet. Deeply troubled, he begins the long walk down the street. How had this all happened? Everything had been taken from him. Mod Kathy, gone, St EliteMike, Maninsanity, Tanner,gone, the Turkins, St Thal, Jimi Hendrix,...... all gone. He searches in his pocket..... even his last gp is gone. "What am I going to do," he thinks to himself. Slowly his mind returns to his surroundings and he realizes that not only are all his friends gone, but there is not a soul anywhere to be seen. The area is deserted, he's the only living being for as far as he can see. The heat of the sun beats down on him and creates a shimmering effect ahead in the distance. Not knowing what else to do, Josh begins to walk towards it. Oddly, as he continues to walk, he notices that he's actually getting closer to the strange sight.... "That's strange," he thinks. "Usually a heat shimmer will continue to move on ahead of you.... you can't get closer to it." But, never the less, Josh is eventually standing right next to the shimmer. He tentatively reaches out his hand to touch it. It's cool to the touch and his fingers pass through it and disappear from sight. "Oh well," he sighs. "Here goes nothing." Josh cautiously steps through the shimmer and ....

[Studd Busta]

Punches thal in the face then...

[St Thal]

or, at least he thought it was St Thal, in fact it was his reflection in a mirror..... "Oh No!!!!! I look like St Thal," he said in alarm. "Well, at least I don't look like Studd Busta." "Thank God for that." Josh/Thal or whatever, walked around to the other side of the mirror and looked into it. "Odd, now I'm Josh again." Out of curiosity, he walked back around to the front side again, and again, he looked like St Thal. "I think I'm losing my mind," he said. "Pay no attention to that mirror," boomed a loud deep voice. "That mirror merely reflects your....

[Saint Victor]

..evil side". "My evil side" josh thought in his head, "I have an evil side???" Josh suddenly turns to the mirror and starts to punch the mirror to shatter it when suddenly....

[St Thal]

"St Thal's reflection grabs his hand to stop the blow. "You don't want to break the mirror," he said calmly. "Josh's reflection from the other side yells, "Yes, break it, break it." St Thal calmly continues, if you break the mirror, horrors beyond your imagination will come to pass." "I don't know what to believe," Josh wails. "My reflection says to break it, St Thal's side says not to." Once again, St Thal speaks, "My side of the reflection will always speak truth to a lie and a lie to truth." Your side will alway lie to truth and speak truth to a lie." Josh thought about this for a moment.... "but, that's the same thing, isn't it? "I mean, truth to a lie, lie to truth, all you did was mix it up a bit." "Nanu Nanu," said St Thal as he morphed into Mork from Ork. "You figured it out, congratulations. Here, take this egg, it will solve your problems. "You're in the wrong story," said Josh, but it was too late, the reflection of Thal/Mork was gone in it's place was what looked like a television test pattern. "This just get stranger and stranger,"says Josh in disbelief. He looks closely at the egg and notices......

[ST Elitemike]

That it is a ticking time bomb! just as Josh realizes this it explodes in his hands! THE END, THAT IS THE STORY OF JOSH!

[St Thal]

Zaros closes the book and places, "The Story of Josh," back on the dusty shelf from which it came. "Nothing like a little light reading," the god says as he searches for another book to occupy his mind...."let's see..... 'Maninsanity - Death to Dicers,' "Nah, too violent this close to bedtime,"..... how about, "Luna Vitae - The Arts of a Classical Musician,"..... hmmm, maybe, but then I'd just have the urge to play my guitar, then remember how much I suck, get all depressed and that never ends well for humanity..... "But, how about something a little more substantial..... He reaches for a large dusty volume on the top shelf. "The Life and Times of St EliteMike." The great god Zaros blows the dust off the book and opens to the first page. .....

The wind was blowing hard against St. EliteMike's back as he struggled to close the door to his humble cottage in Northern Falador. The ancient totem clutched tightly in his hand seemed to pull him through the door and towards the light where he immediately held the object up for close inspection. There seems to be a small latch here, he thinks to himself. He's about to use his knife on the latch, when suddenly his door bursts open and with a gust of wind, and a cloud of dust, followed by the crash of the slamming door, St EliteMike sees that he has been joined by his old friend......

[Saint Victor]

TheXtraSaint. Although TheXtraSaint is is St EliteMike friend, Mike always.....

[St Thal]

keeps an eye on him because he's a mage in training and you never know what to expect when he's around. The last time TheXtraSaint paid Mike a visit, he ended up with 3 big toes. Not a major problem, but it did make finding a good fit in shoes a tad difficult. "I see you found it," he said to Mike as he laid his cloak across the chair by the door. "Yes," said Mike, "It wasn't easy, I had to kill 3 Bork's, a Frost Dragon and a cow to get it." "A cow???" said TheXtraSaint. "Why a cow?" "Because as I was getting away from the Dragon, I slipped in it's...uh,,,, in it's 'mess,' shall we say...." "Then, when I tried to stand up, I slipped in it again, landing on my dagger and that freakin' hurt." "So, I killed it ok?" yelled Mike angrily. "Now stop bothering me with stupid questions." (Authors Note: Readers of the Legendary GP of Doom may recall that St EliteMike is prone to angry outbursts, but he's a formidable RuneScape adventurer, so it is this writers opinion that these outbursts be overlooked.) "There, I've got it," Mike yells excitedly. (his anger from a moment ago already forgotten.) He holds up a jewel that he has managed to pull from a hidden compartment in the totem. "What is it," says TheXtraSaint? "Why," says Mike quietly, "this is none other than the lost gem of the.....

giant mole! and that is when mike realized...

[darkprince90]

That the gem was actually fake. He would have to travel half way across runescape to find the actual gem of the giant mole

[Studd Busta]

He looks back into the fake gem, which, for some odd reason, glimmered with the sight of the King Black Dragon. Mike gets the idea that the KBD must have the real gem! so then he goes...

[St Thal]

over to his guilded altar and pulls on the burner. TheXtraSaint hurries over to his side. "What are you doing?" he asks. StEliteMike pushes him back just in time, as a trap door opens in the floor where TheXtraSaint had been standing only moments ago. Ignoring the question, StEliteMike says, "follow me," and steps cautiously down into the trap door. The trap door ladder leads them down about 20 feet into a dark cool room. StEliteMike lights a torch and turns to face TheXtraSaint. "We need to find the real gem," he says. "This one is a fake." He hands the fake gem to TheXtraSaint and continues. "However, it did provide one clue." "I believe the real gem is being guarded by the King Black Dragon." "I'm afraid we need to get there quickly." "Follow me." He spins on his heel and opens a door in the rock wall. When TheXtraSaint's eyes adjust to the dim light he lets out a gasp. "StEliteMike laughs, "haven't you ever ridden.....
