The Purple Monster Strikes

The day the Purple Monster striked, people will always remember1

that day.  Where the monster came from no one really knows, but some 2

suspect the purple planet that planet beyond Pluto.  Others said Saturn3

, we really hadn't known much about that planet.  4

Control of the Purple monster was by aliens unknown to us , later discovered.  The aliens had a purple army too.  Purple uniforms, but their skin was a brownish orange and gave off a glow, an orange glow.5

When they attacked, the monster flamed the cities with a great fire, 6

like Godzilla.   This lead the way for the soldiers, who picked off the rest in the initial attacks.  Our forces weren't ready and our tech had been sliding for some time.  7

Fighting was fierce, with hand combat.  The alien soldiers gave off a toxic glow smell, that killed some, until masks were developed.  Purple monster was the most devastating though.  Buildings were demolished and purple goo was everywhere, as the monsters flame left a residual purplish goo substance.  This stuff actually crept on friendly soldiers and turned them into zombies that attacked anything.  So three forces were fighting now.  8

The zombies attacked the earth forces first, however, for some reason, probably because the zombies were once human, the zombies mind melded with the earth forces.  In some cases it was grotesque; the zombies became almost one with the earth soldier, like a siamese twin.  The alien soldiers were shocked and couldnt defeat the power of the earth zombie soldier.  As for the purple monster he self imploded after earth forces zapped with thousands of missles and the monster was now in flames, still shooting flames with purple residue, but then it exploded in a large blast.   The area looked like a large pit , of purplish ,toxic goo.  There were still soldiers fighting.  The zombie soldiers were ripping the alien soldiers apart, and the after battle raged on for days.  Finally , earth forces won and the memories still linger of , the attack of the purple horde from outer, outer spaaaaaace.   9

    I like this. It was very entertaining. My favorite line? "The zombies attacked the earth forces first, however, for some reason, probably because the zombies were once human, the zombies mind melded with the earth forces." So cool!

    I too found this funny, and who is to say that sci fi is not funny, there are a lot of very funny sci fi films..... I loved this and to answer your question, if you would like to add on to it up until the contest closes then by all means do. I would love to see more I think, I loved the part about the goo, purplish ,toxic goo just brilliant...... Just one thing I ask, don't make it a novel will you?

    Take care and good luck in the contest, did i say thanks for entering, well I have now...

    Take care

    Sanity.

    Well the title does sound kinda hokey, thats whats offered. I was thinking Godzilla, with aliens and stuff. More of a movie idea to me. I do like Godzilla movies.

    A story, short or otherwise, can be 1 paragraph long. Can be 1 page long, I didn't see mention of 'page(s)' so I figure it is to the descretion of the writer. Mine, that I submitted just a few minutes ago, is probably 2 and half pages.

    And I wrote that on the spot.

    I find humor in this, solely on that basis alone - there is sc-fi in it of course, but, I see this mainly in the 'humor' sense.

    And since it isn't the end, maybe I'll come back.

    But, what you have - I find nice.
