- The adventure on the planet Zomem
-
-
- "Well I'll be!" shouted Katriinaenigmamusirmamagnifazzula. "Look at this: Giant
- lizards have broken into an alarm clock factory! It can't be anything other
- than..." "No it can't!" shouted XYZ. It was, of course, about our old friend
- Norlam the wizard, whose experiments with lizards and alarm clocks have failed
- sometimes. It had been announced in the "Daily Universe" newspaper, which
- Katriinaenigmamusirmamagnifazzula was holding in his hand (or what to call it,
- since he looked a lot like a cyan crossing between an octopus, a locust, and a
- goat.)
-
- We all jumped (I, Jeemi Bilisdo, the aliens XYZ and Katriinaenigmamusirma-
- magnifazzula, my dog Someone Else, and my little sister Riasi) to the space-
- ship and flew towards the planet Lipaem, where the publishing house for "Daily
- Universe" was located.
- We told the editor (a funny looking ladybirdoid at that) that it wasn't a
- serious case. Our wizard friend's business had just gone wrong. "But what about
- them?" asked the ladybirdoid in a panic. I turned to look and saw a gigantic
- horde of locustoids demonstrating against the local nuclear power centre
- (demonstrating what, was never explained). The poor things thought the lizards
- were the creation of nuclear power! XYZ and Riasi explained to the locustoids
- that it had just been an unsuccesful experiment on our wizard friend's part to
- get lizards eat nothing but alarm clocks to save on the upkeep money (phew!).
- So the locustoids left on their starcruisercarriercombination. "Phew, we got
- rid of them at last" sighed Katriinaenigmamusirmamagnifazzula and Someone Else.
- We could have left for the planet Zomem, had it not been for our ship's fuel
- tanks, which were empty. So we went to buy some fuel. The station had a
- discount of 0.00000725 percent so we got our fuel for a measly 12 buckazoids!
-
- Then we headed for Zomem, which loomed in front of us after 1 hour, 17 minutes
- and 38.072 seconds. I turned the landing lever, and my ship floated gently
- down. We stepped down from the ship (XYZ didn't step, she has the ability to
- teleport extremely short distances).
- On our way we were always troubled by beetloids, who were representing the
- press. They asked stupid questions about Norlam's experiments all the time.
- When we got tired of them Someone Else bit one of them on the wing and they
- vanished fearing that Katariinaenigmamusirmamagnifazzula would bite, too.
-
- Then we had a tiny little problem. In front of us gauged a huge chasm, which
- even the ping pongs that King Kong of Hong Kong makes wouldn't fill. No plant
- grew on the edge of the chasm to allow us to climb down. But we all jumped on
- XYZ and let her teleport downwards. But it was a mistake. XYZ got to the other
- side, but her teleport power only concerns herself, so we all fell down to the
- edge of the chasm.
- But I flew Riasi on my ship and Katariinaenigmamusirmamagnifazzula carried
- Someone Else, so we managed to cross the chasm.
-
- Then we reached Norlam. He was dizzy and couldn't help us any more than we
- could ourselves. But luckily he owns an Interrealmic phone, with which we
- phoned Norlam's friend Merlin to come here from his home dimension.
- With the total strength of all seven of us we gathered all the lizards from
- across the universe, shrunk them and canned them.
- So that was the end.
