    I enjoyed all these a lot! =D= Time to vote in a PM for story A, B, C, D, or E.

    -----

    Story A

    It was a dark and stormy night. The man was approaching the dreary house. He was apprehensive. The last time he was here, he almost lost his life. His heart skipped a beat as a cat darted from the bushes.

    It darted into the shadows of dead bushes along the walkway. At the porch steps, the man pulled his coat tighter around him, and coughed. Rain fell steadily, sagging the brim of his hat. This first step hated him, he thought, and lifted his shaking foot.

    'This is it, I've got to go in", he thought to himself, no more putting it off. Steeling his nerves, he resolutely climbed the stairs, making himself reach for the door without hesitation, he turned the knob. At first he thought it locked as it wouldn't give way, but there was some movement, it was as if there was something heavy behind the door, not allowing it to open.

    The heavy object behind the door wasn’t an object at all it seemed to be breathing! He quickly opened the door preparing for the worst. When the door finally swung open he noticed that the object was actually an elephant. Now how in the world did this elephant get here he thought.

    He and the elephant looked at each other for a long time. Both expressions were of disbelief. The man still wondering how the elephant got in there. Strangely enough, the elephant looked... guilty?
    "Sorry," the elephant said. I was looking for a dry place. I didn't mean to crash your place."

    The man's eyes went wide. He started to back away. "How?" he thought. "How did it find me here??" He backed into the table on the porch. "Lucky for me, I'm prepared." He reached down behind the table into the cage. He tossed the mouse at the elephant and it turned to run. The elephantine danger gone, the man went upstairs to bed.

    Story B

    Winnie the Pooh and his friends Christopher Robin and Tigger stood on the old bridge over the rushing stream. They leaned over the railing, and each tossed a stick to the waters below. Then they raced to the other side and peered over to see whose stick appeared first. "Wait," Pooh said. "Is that Tigger floating face down?"

    "Oh no," Christopher Robin cried out, jumping into stream. Slogging his way through the chill stream, he reached his friend. Flipping him over, he was suddenly assailed by a torrent of water expelled from Tigger's laughing, water filled mouth.

    He would get so mad at Tigger for deceiving him. He knew he needed to get his revenge and quickly. He thought death was to lenient. Instead he would wait to push him back into the river so his friend would not be able to dry off.

    But then he thought about it. Yes, what Tigger did was cruel, and yes, he was angry, but revenge never solved anything. And pushing Tigger back into the river would not make him feel better. So he gathered all his friends, including Tigger, together over by a small campfire. While he and digger let the heat of the fire dry them off, he explained why Tigger's prank was a very bad thing.

    Pooh looked at Christopher Robin, explaining things to Tigger. He said to them, "I am a bear of very little brain. But, I do know friends." He pulled out a jar of honey to share with his friends. He opened it, then realized he had sampled the honey earlier. The jar was empty.

    Soon, Christopher sang a reggae cover of House at Pooh Corner by the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, using the empty honey jar as a drum. Pooh bear sat and listened, rocking back and forth with delight. Tigger, however, had water in his ears and could hardly hear a thing. Which in the end may be for the best, 'cuz Tiggers like reggae about as much as they like honey.

    Story C

    The park was overrun with children. Children playing, children laughing. children screaming. He couldn't remember if he was ever quite so loud as a child, but then the park is certainly where they can use their outdoor voices till their heart's content. Still, he was a bit hung over and it was the weekend, so maybe putting off his run for one day would be okay.

    He didn’t know what to do with all the free time he had after visiting the park. Maybe he should visit his mother? He hadn’t seen her since the accident.

    Suddenly it was quiet. There was no sound to be heard. At all. He turned his head this way and that. There was nobody around in the park. Where had everybody gone?

    A rustle in the bushes caught his attention. He paused to look at the curiosity. A chirp interrupted the silence, coming from the bush. He crept closer. He was within two meters when, jumping from the bush, a dinosaur appeared. It was a small raptor and eyed him as curiously as he eyed it. The curiosity stopped when it jumped at him! He started to run for his life.

    But the man tripped and fell. The raptor caught up and began tearing him to pieces with its razor-sharp teeth. The doomed man summoned his years of playground acting, as he yelled, wrestled, and abruptly fell dead, tongue hanging. Children laughed and clapped.

    The youngest child, a girl of no more than 11 years of age began to track closer to the feeding raptor. The dinosaur eyed her suspiciously and gave a half-hearted growl. "Angie," she gently scolded the beast, " you know better than to eat so fast. Bad guys always give you a tummy ache. Come on, leave some for the scavengers." Tilting her head at the child, the raptor squeaked assent. As the children began to gather their playthings, hammers, knives and metal spears, Angie quickly snapped of an arm from her meal and happily followed the kids into the park.

    Story D

    Han wanted to get Luke off the controls. He had passed out once they had entered atmosphere on dagobah. Han thought everything was going great until they actually got to the planet. He didn’t know what he needed to do to get Luke out of his trance, but he knew he would try everything.

    "Hey Luke, wake up," Han said, shaking Luke even has he said it. When he didn't respond, he shook Luke harder. After about five minutes, he shook the other man even harder. Han was considering pouring a bucket of cold water over Luke. Finally the Jedi blinked awake.

    Han stood back. "Welcome to the world of the living!" he deadpanned. Han motioned to the other man in the Falcon's other bunk. "So, are you able to tell me who this guy is, yet? Oh, and why he's dressed like me?"

    Luke rubbed his eyes and stood, looking to their unconscious guest. "I hope you don't mind, but he needed a change of clothes. His name is Dominick Cobb. He and I are going to perform a Force-inception on the dark side entity that lurks in a cave near here." Han aimed a bewildered look at his friend before throwing up his arms and saying they had better make it quick, that he had a cantina to visit.

    "Well see Han, we kinda need your help," Luke admitted reluctantly as Han was about to leave. Stopping suddenly, the smuggler slowly turn around leveling an exasperated expression at his friend. "It's not very dangerous," Luke told him immediately, "at least it's not suppose to be. And you'll look totally wizard to Leia if you do this."

    Luke did not know why he kept on using Wizard. He just liked the word so much almost like he was born saying it. He think he picked it up from Biggs back on Tatooine but he wasn’t sure. Not like he could go and ask him anymore after the Death Star. Man I really miss him.

    Story E

    It was a dark and stormy night outside the TARDIS. Inside not a creature was stirring, not even the Doctor. Doctor and Companions were all snug in their beds, dreaming of what the next day's adventures would bring. All highly unaware of the chaos building outside.

    The Judoon had set up a barricade. They had convincing evidence that one of the "companions" wasn't who she appeared to be. A reverse-aging alien with a personal chameleon circuit was a dangerous thing.

    And so the Doctor awoke to find a "polite" voice mail explaining the situation. Could it be a trick to lure him and his friends into the open? He ran a bio scan on the still-sleeping pair. The results appeared . . . well, surprising. He would need to act immediately.

    "Amy, Rory, I think it's time to wake up and see what I've discovered," he said and he hurried them up. "Follow me," he turned, walking down one hallway to another with them trailing hurriedly. "Aha, this is the room we need," ushering them inside, he led them to chairs. "Sit, sit" he instructed and as soon as they did, restraining straps appeared, encircling their arms and legs, holding them fast to the chairs.

    That wasn’t part of the plan. It seems that the chairs have a mind of their own. He would need to use his sonic screw driver to unscrew the chairs minds but he really didn’t know how to do such a thing.

    Suddenly, a light flashed in the chairs and in place of Rory and Amy were his younger self - the one with the scarf and ridiculous hair and teeth - and Romana.

    "Oh, dear," his younger self said, "That didn't work out quite as well as he'd planned. He faced the current Doctor, "if you could be so kind as to use setting #2934 on your Sonic Screwdriver?"

    The Doctor nodded wordlessly and pointed the Screwdriver at the pair (He always did wonder why he had such an unknown setting on it). When he pressed another flash of light appeared and the real Amy and Rory sat dazed and confused. The Judoon left shortly thereafter.

    No wonder nobody wanted to sign up, and no wonder nobody tried once they did.
