And odd story that was actually the love child of four people. No one could agree what should go into the story so I pieced together little bits from each story and the result might be considered a disaster or it might be considered Art.
It was a bright sunny day in St. Louis. The year was 2098. The metro link ran throughout the whole city, when a giant explosion destroyed the arch leaving a bright light surrounding the city. In the middle of the crater left by the destruction an angel appeared saying. “Behold I am the light of the world, come to rid St. Louis of the drug abuse, rapes, murder, and general unpleasantness. A black hole is coming to suck all of st. Louis into it. The path of destruction will follow the metro link.”
Seemingly it began because a blackness followed and a dark figure emerged saying “Don’t listen my brother, he speaks with a forked tongue. I shall kill this being he is not what he seems. The Great Spirit has asked me to intervene. “
The showdown was set for 4th of July at the Edward Jones Dome because the Rams don’t do crap and it needed to be put to good use. Tickets sold like wildfire. The event needed to be televised because it was sold out in an hour.
The instruments of destruction were chosen as the flute for the angel of light and the fiddle for the daemon. The played a ferocious battle the spectators roared a monstrous roar. Houses flattened. Building crumble and the Mississippi ran backwards as the new Madrid fault began to quake.
In the end the only standing was the fiddle and the flute. There was no black hole, but there were no people for miles around either. It is debatable if the fight did any good, but the general unpleasantness was gone.
