Mmmmh.... I see now at Poserpros and it seems they have erased the topic, I'm very sorry about this, (the only contest I won)....
Any way, VirtualSite posted an image with a soldier who kept a man (the "wanderer" of an old VirtualSite serie) and you had to write a story about this. I wrote:
The God's eye.
" What's the problem ? " asked the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de].
" He said nobody can approach ", answered the [i:b1efee72de]Cat[/i:b1efee72de].
" There isn't problem,if you don't come near it, Sir " said the [i:b1efee72de]Soldier[/i:b1efee72de], " I'm here to keep people away from it. Orders, Orders exact obedience, so one more step, Sir, and I'll show you the results of a long military training "
" Ok, calm down, that light is [i:b1efee72de]so[/i:b1efee72de] beautiful... We would only look at it... Closer "
" All civilians say the same words... Later you'd succeed only to do a big mess ! Better to look at it from here, trust me. "
" But... it's been a long way, tell me something more. why it can't be touched ? "
" I don't know, actually nobody know why, surely nobody know what could happen, I never saw anybody who touched it, but... this means nothing, it doesn't mean that it isn't [i:b1efee72de]extremely[/i:b1efee72de] dangerous.... "
" I don't understand " said the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de], twisting his head. ( The [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] begin a little toilet using his tongue, nonchalant )
" I'm here since a long time, you know, they taught me that " THE DEFENSE OF THE FATHERLAND ALSO MEANS TO WATCH A GASOLINE TANK ", and this isn't so different.... Nevertheless... I think that it's natural to wonder something... Sometimes... "
" Everyday here comes the [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de] and pray. He passes near me and bless my weapons. I asked him an answer, but... But [i:b1efee72de]his[/i:b1efee72de] answer was worse than the doubt itself... "
" Cool... go on "
" Mmmh... He said nobody know what could happen, in fact nobody ever touched it, and that weren't be other guards here, only me, simply nobody -succeeded- in touching it, guard or not, but I must keep all people far away from it at all costs. "
"so you are here for... what ? If nobody can touch it where [i:b1efee72de]is[/i:b1efee72de] the problem ? "
" The [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de] said it is the [i:b1efee72de]God's eye[/i:b1efee72de], and if you touch it, you'll attract his rage, because God doesn't want that we look at his reign. God created us like his imagine and resemblance, but.. this is the strangeness... It seems our world is better than [i:b1efee72de]his[/i:b1efee72de]... And that God used to be very angry if one of us try to see how it's made. "
" Our world... Better than God's ? We... Better than our Creator ? "
" Listen to me, You should talk with the [i:b1efee72de]Demiurge[/i:b1efee72de]
when he'll come here.... It seems strange to me too...
He let me look at a sacred book, with pictures... Horrible pictures... Gods who change... Mutations... and at the end of the metamorphosis they... Cease "
" [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de] ?? What you mean with [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de] ? "
" They don't move anymore, they disintegrate their bodies "
" It makes me sick ! How you can believe in these things ? [i:b1efee72de]WHO[/i:b1efee72de] would believe in these words ?
"
" Sir, in my classification there are : first [i:b1efee72de]God[/i:b1efee72de], second [i:b1efee72de]Fatherland[/i:b1efee72de] and third [i:b1efee72de]Family[/i:b1efee72de], this is enough for me and [i:b1efee72de]now[/i:b1efee72de] if you please go away... "
" BULLSHITS ! ", said the cat, We know religion can survive only with people's ignorance, I came here to see the [i:b1efee72de]God's eye[/i:b1efee72de] -closer- and if you think you can stop me with that M-16, you took aim at the wrong cat, [i:b1efee72de]DUFFELBAG[/i:b1efee72de]! "
Then the [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] leaped over the [i:b1efee72de]soldier[/i:b1efee72de] boots, running to the [i:b1efee72de]eye[/i:b1efee72de]
"STOP ! FREEZE NOW, or I'll shoot you ! "
" Shoot my ASS ! It doesn't matter, I can't [i:b1efee72de]CEASE[/i:b1efee72de], turd ! And now, I show you all your sillines ! LOOK ! "
The [i:b1efee72de]cat[/i:b1efee72de] approaches the [i:b1efee72de]eye[/i:b1efee72de]...
" LET ME GO ! " said the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de]
" No, NO, he's touching it ! "
(note: you can see this scene in the picture)
...
"...I said you'll attract his rage, because God doesn't want that we look at his reign... But, are you listening to me ? "
" Yes, yes... I was thinking that I ever desired a pet since I was a child, maybe a little dog, but my parent did never bought an animal to me... I don't know why I keep in mind this... Now... "
" But... Uh, what a wonderful weapon you have !... And you succeed to manage it with a single hand ! Cool ! "
" Uh, yes, she's my Baby " and began to caress the gun, looking at it voluptuously...
Immediately the [i:b1efee72de]Wanderer[/i:b1efee72de] takes advantage of the situation, a sudden slap and the rifle is on the floor and he is running to the light...
" I cheated you, [i:b1efee72de]DUFFELBAG[/i:b1efee72de] ! "
" NO! NO ! STOP ! FREEEZE !! "
...
" ... I let the rifle fall down... One more time... I begin to think this work causes me sickness. I must stop to talk alone, CONCENTRATE YOURSELF ! "
(fortunatly I had a copy in my hd)
