 Fiction: Alexis Book 1 - Fugitive - by aeriel *NEW AUTHOR* Welcome this new UKA author (6899 words) - Date online (25-10-2004)
Sci-fi

Out of the still calm at the end of a normal space day came an attack by marauders. Alexis was sent away to safety, but there was nothing safe about that sector of space. The marauders were looking for him. The people who helped him on his way to find his parents told him a little about the Imperial Legion and their power of Thoughts, but what exactly was his connection with the Emperor and why were the marauders so desperate to find him? It was all very confusing, even more confusing when you had spent all your life in a small space lab and were totally unused to living anywhere else.

 Fiction: The Chambers Of My Heart - by dogfrog (1251 words) - Date online (25-10-2004)
Flash Fiction



This piece is a short re-working of a character found in Albert Camus' The Outsider, Raymond Santès. Raymond begins the chain of events that leads to Meursault killing the Arab on the beach. I have quoted Camus' text twice, but I'm sure he wouldn't have minded. He was a goalkeeper afterall and even the best goalies let one in occasionally.

This case is one for the books, alright
It started with a mousy dame, wearing coke bottle glasses
She said her sister wanted to hire me
Sam Spade didn't want her so, he dumped her in my lap
Her sister turns out to be Monica Malone
This tomato is only the most beautiful star in Hollywood

Thanks for the leftovers, Sam...

The ongoing adventures of the USS Hoohoo Diddey, in which our intrepid crew explore space, by going around the universe to the left.



This story is made up of a series of stories which will form a completely insane series of parodies almost, though not quite as good, as if you huffed gasoline while reading a Douglas Adams book. It's meant to be absurd.



It's a joint effort, from Kazekage and Gee, so postings will alternate between these two writers.



No sandwiches were harmed in the making of this story.
