This set of really short little stories are the introduction to a far 
larger, longer, sillier and more serious set of stories to come.  This 
may or may not end up as part of 'The Sound and The Furry', depending on 
how silly it gets.  :)

'The Soft Serve Gestapo gets Crowned!'  (formerly 'Dairy Queen gets Crowned!',
till Dairy Queen threatened to sue)  is going to be, well, whatever I 
want it to be at the time.  It's my excuse to write whatever stories come 
to me at the moment of sitting down to write.

Essentially though, you're going to be looking at a comedy-fantasy story 
line, NOT STARRING the far-too-typical 'big guy with sword' or 'brash 
young female wizard'.  I prefer to stay away from that VASTLY overdone 
aspect of comedic fantasy.  Not that one or two of the archetypes won't 
show up; they just won't be part of the main cast.  :)  Oh yeah, none of 
the stars are kids either!

I warn you now - the names are the same, but some of the races are going 
to be somewhat different from what you're used to.  Also -gasp- no 
humans!  Well, almost none..  For now.

This could be classified as pre-fantasy, seeing as I'm basing most of the
storyline before the coming of man.  Whatever.  I hate sub-classifications
myself.  

But I babble.  Read the 'genesis' stories if you're interested in 
fantasy.  If you like it, let me know.  If you think it sucks, let me 
know.   If you want to help, OH GOD PLESE TELL ME!!!  ^_^   

Ahem.  Sorry about that.  I'm finished now, really...  I'll throw part 
one of 'The Soft Serve Gestapo gets Crowned!: Genesis'  in right here..  
The rest will follow in seperate mails.

IN THE BEGINNING, THERE WAS NOTHING...

































...This lasted for some time...


































And then, for no particular reason, there were the writers.    This 
again lasted for some time, and all was in darkness, until one fateful
eon..

-----

Voice #1: Hey!  Why are the lights off?

-----

And then, there was light...

-----

Voice #2: OWWWW!!!

-----

And it was very bright.

-----

Voice #1: Turn it off, turn it off!!

----

And there was darkness again.

Not much later, the writers understood how to control light, and they
could see without being blinded, which was very good.  But not all was  
well..

----

Voice #2: So..  What do you wanna do now?


Voice #1: Look at the light?


Voice #2:  Ohhoohh...  Yeah!

----

And there was great boredom.  Until, one fateful day, when they looked out
upon the nothingness all around them...  

With so much nothingness, there surely was absolutely nothing.  Thus,
there was infinite nothingness around them.  With so much nothingness 
just there, doing absolutely nothing, they decided to do something with 
it.

Thus, the universe was created.

----

Voice #2: Now we can get some action around here!

Voice #1: Anything's better than just listening to you for another
millenium..

----

And it was infinitely less boring than nothing.  Even though that's what
it was created from.  After that, came the planets, the stars, suns, 
planet-destroying comets, planet-sucking black holes, and other such fun
things for their amusement.  

Overwhelmed with the amount of planets and gravities that could entertain
them, the writers left the job of populating the planets to the
newly-created 'gods'.  Upon these gods, the job of creating,
maintaining, and generally ruling the people they chose to make, was
given.

So, across the galaxy, scores of gods went on to create scores of peoples,
who themselves made more people.  And all was good and happy in the
universe.

On one fateful eon, before the writers dissapeared, they assigned the last
four of their gods to control a planet, which was named Zoose.  This was a
very special planet; why it was special, the gods did not know.  But it
WAS egg-shaped.  What was also unknown was, why the writers had left 
control of this 'special' planet, in the hands of their four most inept 
servants...

A special planet indeed.  Though none of the gods had an inkling just HOW
special.  And they wouldn't, for quite some time..
