Polka Root: Chapter III: Giant Part 2

"A FLYING SWAMP" squeales Mina with her heart pumping out of her throat. SPLAT!, the disgusting substance splashed on her. Once more she found herself covered with sickly slime. Then a louf rumbling could be heard coming out of a nearby forest. Out came a purple giant. Mina inteligently noticed that the giant had caught a cold and was sneezing. There was the explanation for the unplanned swamps on the ground. "HEY!!, cut out the sneezing!" yelled Mina in wild protest. "Oh my!, what do we have here... a tasty morsel" said the giant in a much-too-obvious cliche tone. Mina knew she was in for it now. The giants hand clumsily came down and grasped Mina in one hold. Fortunately her body was still covered in slime. When the giant squeezed his hand tighter, Mina's slippery frictionless caused her to blast off in the air, far and far away...

shortz!!

Well, taking a break from my usual story posts (right now the exciting Polka Root!! series), I wanted to post a little more behind the scenes info about my writing. When I write I purposely try to break all the rules. I imagine the story secen like a cartoon. Cartoons break the laws of physics and unpredictable funny stuff happens. Of course, there must be a balance between breaking the rules and following a certain commonly accepeted flow, so the reader can actually understand the story. However, like I said before I take it very easy on the grammar, just splurting everything out as it flashes in my mind. I always wanted to draw, it's interesting...., I never could! I guess the next best thing to drawing was writing off the pictures in my stories !!

Polka Root: Chapter III: Giant Part 1

"HEY WAKE UP!!!!" yelled the sun rose. The two new friends rose and suddenly everything was rose! plants, grass, floor, sky, birds, faces, everything was rose. "I hope this doesn't last long" Meka commented. Mina agreed laughing, as her rose tresses bounced on her shoulder.

The snow slowly melted way as they left the dessert behind. Then they came across a sticky lookiing swamp. "Ummmm...., we're going to have to cross this Meka" said Mina with a certain uncertainty in her voice. "Meka..., are you listening to me !??! Oh no!, her oil supply is empty!!" Now Mina not only felt lonely, she had to figure out a way to cross the swamp by herself. Simple, she thought, she used Meka as a boat, and surprisingly it worked. Then Mina heard something from up above, as she lifted her sight, she couldn't believe what she saw......

Polka Root: Chapter II: Meka Part 2

Thus the adventure continued. As they treked the fanous Snow Desert Meka told Mina about the source of robot oil, which was very hard to find. In turn Mina told Meka about the unique characteristics of the Polka Root. Meka then suddenly interrupted Mina, abrubptly changing the subject, Mina found this very rude from Meka's part.

The pair then stopped for lunch. Mina got some strange pills from her knapsack and heated them on the hot snow from the desert. Suddenly a giant roasted chicken popped out from the pill and the girls ate happily. "Hey!, can you actually eat food?" Mina asked Meka. "I CAN eat food but it really doesn't do me any good. I need oil to exist, the food is just for fun." Meka said with a strange dignity. Mina shrugged as she continue chomping on her chicken. Then they called it a day and went to sleep.

Polka Root: Chapter II: Meka Part 1

Light!!, At last Mina could see the cave's exit. Thus she excitedly hopped to the exit, noticing it was more like an eggsit. This would have been repulsive to any delicate girl, but not to Mina. The eggsit, she knew, was the only way out of the cave. It was full of hard boiled eggs, creating some sort of a barrier. The only way through it was straight through it. So mina sloppily squeezed through the eggsit and popped out the other side full of eggs. Then she heard a familiar voice, "Hey it's you again!" She turned and saw the machanical beast. "So why aren't you afraid of me anymore?" Mina asked. "Oh, it's that it's the first time that I come out of than dark lair, only to find out that I am a girl myself!". "Cool, what's your name?" Mina asked. "I got no name since I got no friends" the robot sadly replied. "Then I shall call you Meka, is that all right?" Mina said. "Sure thing, Oh! by the way, all this running made me loose a lot of oil, can I join you on your exploration to maybe find some more?" Meka asked. "Yeah, that'd be good" ended Mina.

Tonight I'll post the second part of Meka, I'm really liking these characters. I imagine them in a Japanese animation sort of style. Mina is green-eyed blue haired somewhat tomboysih girl who is extremely fit. Before I start balbbering too much about my characters, I think I'll dedicate a whole post at the end of the story where I'll give a profile for each. Then probably I'll do some short stories, and then another series, maybe in space or somthin!!

Polka Root: Quests & Caves part II

Mana then walked up to bridge that seemed to be guarded by some kind of mechanical beast. Luckily for her, the beast was facing away from her. So Mina swiftly skipped towards the ronot. "Excuse me" she inquired. The machine suddenly became alive, but it only rotated it's spheric head in much effort to face her. The robot spoke: "Ummmm...eeerr... yess, you must pay the to...!!... AAARRGGHH A GHOST!!"

Mina instantly remembered that her blue glowing hair was her only visible characteristic in the dark caves, thus making it look like some kind of floating creature. The mechanical beast started to cry out in desperation. Mina just stood there and started to laugh: "Afraid of a girl huh?!!?" Mina approached the robot, who in turn peered at her in curiosity. "AAARRGGHHH A GIRL!!!!!" shouted the mechanical beast as it ran away crying. "Gee" Mina thought to herself shrugging in a bewildered amusement.

Polka Root!: Chapter 1: Quests & Caves

Before going though the stor: All right this is my first attempt at writing something that goes beyond two paragraphs. this time it'll be three :) Well..., like my first series, this story will be continuing, maybe for the nex week or so depending if I like how it's developing. Now here..., enjoy Polka Root!

Quests & Caves

"And the juice from the roots of the great Polka Dotted Tree will be the las ingredient for the Krymal potion" Were the last words of Mina heard before initiating the search.Mina, a beautiful but savage girl, didn't know what the potion was exactly for, but she was suspicios having heard awful rumors about the king becoming evil. Glodar the Alchemist had sent her searching for this strange root making it even more suspicious, for that Glodar was a very serious magician always looking to do good things.

Mina now found herself before the giant dark mouth of a mounstrous cave. According to Glodar's directions she had to travel straight across the hideous cavern. As she entered, her eyes caught a glimpse of some sort of glowing fungus which dimly iluminated the drakened surroundings. Suddenly she was attacked by weird worm-like things that aimed for her face. She managed to grasp one with her bare hands and threw it to the floor. "YOOUCH!!" Mina yelled noticing that it was her own blue hair she had grasped. Her long strands of blue hair for some reason reacted to the glowing fungus in a way that it made her hair glow. She briefly laughed to herself and continued her journey...

The Production

Thinking about the process for my writing, I find myself writing music the same way. What I do is just hum a little song in my head and then transfer it to my guitar till it just sounds about right. Sometimes I can be hours with a little tune in my head, as pleasant as that is. What I want to do is combine these tunes with some sort of story and make ultimate pieces of creative material for others to enjoy. Inject some video into this and there you have it a JonBProduction !!

JonB !!

Tonight's story

So This time I've decided to talk a little and leave the stories for later. Well I was thinking about my stories and the proces I go through when I wrute them. I've had people say to me that I'm impressively creative, and I wonder about what makes me have the ideas for my story. I guess the thing is that I think in pictures. I have these images surfing and dashing in my head, and somehow I manage to collect them all in an instant and just discharge them in words. I think in images not words. Words are too slow, I've tried the process of thinking in words, but it's effcient, and I'm not good at it. I guess its true pictures ARE worth a thousand words !!

Uni-Para

The parallel universe broke it's forbidden limits. I invaded our dimension and soon took over every planet in our solar system. All the physical properties of our known world submited themselves to a distortive process. The sounds were soulid, you could hear the water, the fire was hard, the smells were a wonderful view. Humans were now lost souls looking and smelling and doing many things unkwon to the prior man.
