A sudden gust of gravity rips da treazur away (and tangles SS’s cape). But SS’s sooperbengal powerz snagz da treazur as SS slips into da black hole. Lost, naked (sob…his booteeful cape…gone) da treazur callz. It’s a box. Duz SS dare open it?
Tiny alien arteefax are hidded inside. SooperShu touches dem wif hiz bengal-powered nose…Home! Wif out hiz booteeful cape but wif da sacred arteefax safe in his bengal-powered grip.
Translation:
SuperShu, floating in an unexplored region of space around Tau Ceti, spots a sparkling anomaly in the distance. Diving after it with his jet-propelled bengal-thrust (and we all know what that means) he has it nearly in his grip went a sudden gravity flux jerks the precious bag away, simultaneously pulling his cape down and tangling it about his legs (the hidden hazards of superhero high fashion.)
With the help of another bengal power boost, he snags the artifact just as it falls into the black hole. Rather than squished into oblivion, he finds that he and the tiny bag are safe in a bubble of non…which unfortunately doesn’t extend to his fashionable cape.
Drawn inexorably to the tiny bag, he opens it and extracts the treasure, determined to know what it is, if this is to be the end of his superhero activities.
Suddenly the sparkling box bursts open. Inside are tiny alien artifacts rippling with power.
He touches them with his nose, the universe begins to ripple and swirl. In the distance, he sees…home. He grabs the artifacts, magically back in their sparkling box and magical pouch, and leaps for the doorway…and comes out inside his newly remodeled kitty-condo.
Kim, my darlin’…I was totally blown away by the adorable charms, possibly moreso by the accompanying sentiment. I wanted to find a special way to say thanks (e-mail would’ve been a good start, Mom—>Shu) but was completely tongue-tied…until SooperShu told me his story.
Hope you (and everyone else) enjoy.
(Note: there are puzzles here!)
