Re: PANIC!

where: Aboard Blue Dwarf, Crew Quarters
When: During the bug attack
Who: the unknown ensign Canazza
An atomic guitar riff blasts through the speakers at maximum volume, on his bunk, Ensign Dave Canazza is jumping wildly holding a vacuum cleaner, pretending it's a guitar and strumming wildly, not even in time with the music. The riff cresendoed just as the first strike hit the ship. Canazza bounced off the recess wall and onto the floor with a sickening crack. He stood, vacuum in two pieces.
"Dang," he said, "That was my best hoover"
There was a crackle as the music turned itself off and a voice message came over the intercom:
"Don't panic, just a nasty bug problem, nothing we can't handle" said the electronicly distorted voice, "Just sit tight, our skilled squad of pilots will soon take care of it"
Canazza went over to the porthole. It looked right out onto the battlefield. Giant spider creatures were swatting at what seemed like blue ants. The ants didn't seem to resist, some were hit and went spinning towards the planet below while the others flew in a straight line away from the dwarf.
Distracted by the auto-pilot driven midgets, the spiders moved away from the dwarf.
the intercom sparked into life again,:
"See... told you not to panic," the voice said, rather dumfounded, "wow... that was easy."
As the spiders disapeared from view, a temporal rip appeared infront of the dwarf, and from it emerged a massive gargantuan megalithic, and other synonyms meaning 'big', humungous spider creature, with 8 gigantic legs, all hairy and slimy. Gross green goo dribbling from its massive mandibles. It opened it's mouth and moved towards the dwarf.
The intercom sputtered into life again:
"okay" it said, "PANIC!"
<<hey, it's my first story, so sue me :) >>
