The End Is Nigh

How are we all?

Are we all nervous? Terrified, even? Are we all dreading December 21st, the last day on Earth as predicted by the Mayans? Although, as Jon Stewart pointed out on The Daily Show, the Mayans haven't exactly got the best track record as far as predicting the end of civilisations go... to wit, the Mayans...

But I digress.

So how will you be spending the last day on Earth? Will you be surrounded by loved ones? Will you be sobbing into a tub of ice cream? Will you, in fact, forget all about the end of the world because you still haven't got your Christmas shopping done?

Or will you be reading a very special end-of-the-world short story as posted on this very Blog- a short story that will ONLY be available on the 21st and 22nd before being taken down-  in which Skulduggery and Valkyrie track down the cause of the world's destruction and do their very best to avert it? A short story called "The Button"?

Hmm? Is THAT what you'll be doing?

Christmas food shopping can be really boring and VERY long.

Valkyrie V. - Ivy said...

It's so weird that Christmas is warm there...


It snowed today here.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

I WANNA SEE SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!

It's weird cuz (nearly) every Christmas related stuff has snow on it.
And sometimes, cuz there's so much, I forget that it's summer here.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Jophiel said...

*Sigh*
Shall be distant... Writing

Zathract Mist said...

Back.

Death, heaps of people live in Australia.

I live in Australia, so does Eve, and Nixion and Sparky.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hi Zath!

Zathract Mist said...

Hi Miss! Nice festivity picture, by the way.

Silvermoon said...

HELLO!!! I dunno you guys, but you like SP so I must like you too.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hi Silver!

Thanks, Zath!

Silvermoon said...

Hello!

Silvermoon said...

Your guys' pictures... *sniggers*

Jophiel said...

Mine is good!!!

Jophiel said...

Also, Cain, it's up!!

Hi Moon!!
I am Death Rose! I am an adept with the ability to kill people with a glare and twist gravity!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Yusssss.
*goes to check Death's blog*

Silvermoon said...

Well, Death Rose, your picture is brilliant. I think that I am... probably Darquesse's airheaded sister, at the moment.

Silvermoon said...

DEATH YOU LIKE ED SHEERAN!!!

Jophiel said...

Also, I am a hitman, spy and occasional kindergarten teacher

Jophiel said...

Yeah...
Why?

Silvermoon said...

Because Ed Sheeran is THE FRICKIN' BESTEST!!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*comes back from Death's blog*

*stays as far away from Death as possible*

Jophiel said...

Yeah!!!

Cain, it's okay!!!
*Holds out cookie*
Peace offering!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*clears throat*

I shall now introduce myself.

I'm Miss Cain. You can call me Miss, Missy, Cain or any other nickname you can think of.
I'm a Necromancer and I have a crossbow and two daggers. My Necromancy power is stored in my necklace.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*eyes cookie suspiciously*

*takes it*

*eats it*

Jophiel said...

Cain, you happen to kill a person very dear to my boss!

Jophiel said...

*Smiles and holds up a empty bag of rat poison*

Jophiel said...

Moon, would you like a cookie?

Silvermoon said...

@Death Yeah!
@Miss Cools. I sometimes want to be a necromancer, but I wouldn't want to have to wear jewelry all the time. I lose it too easily. So, for now I'm just Darquesse's sister. I'll probably change to something else though. I've been a lot over the years.

Jophiel said...

Can I call you Alice?

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*glares at Death*

*spits out full cookie*

HA! I didn't eat it! It was just sitting there in my mouth!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

AND I don't even know who I kill!

Jophiel said...

*Laughs*
*Rips sticker off bag*
*Points to real label*
It's flour!!!!!! Not rat poison!!!!!

Jophiel said...

Well, that's good! You killed-

Nope, not gonna tell ya!

Silvermoon said...

You guys is funny. Can I have a cookie? I'll take it even if it has rat poisoning...

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*looks at cookie again*

*wraps it in foil*

*places it in jacket*

Jophiel said...

*Hands over large platter of giant cookies*

Jophiel said...

Gonna give it to Mr. Pleasant, Miss Cain?

Silvermoon said...

*noms*

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Na.
Mr. Pleasant can get his own cookies.

Silvermoon said...

So. How we all doing.
*pulls out suspicious-looking binder*

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

http://xaniawonder.deviantart.com/#/d5oo6ev

Death, that might help to get an idea of what I look like.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

I'm good.

What about yourself, Silver?

Silvermoon said...

I'm just reading fanfictions.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Oh my god. TWO SILVERS?

Silvermoon said...

IT'S MY NEW TWIN!! *gasps*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

BTW, Kes, Mycroft is Mycroft Holmes.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

We're twins now! Yay! Always wanted a twin...

Silvermoon said...

Yay!! *reaches for high five* Dream came true!! XD

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Hi Sep!

So THAT'S why when Silvermoon came on I thought:
Where have I seen another Silver before?

Silvermoon said...

Wow. THAT was smooth right there. So smooth the Skulduggery'd be proud. XD

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

*sighs*

I've got to go.
My sister is forcing me to get off the computer and play Dance Central.

I'll be back!!

*disappears*

Silvermoon said...

Well, I'm leaving now because it's two in the morning where I am... *wanders off to bed*

Jophiel said...

Where'd my comment go?
*Looks around*
COMMENT? WHERE ARE YOU??!!

Jophiel said...

Bye!!!
I shal go too!

Zathract Mist said...

Bye Miss and Moon and Death.

If anyone else comes between now and when I check back next, I'll be stupidly distant. I'm working on Battle For Blogland [finally] and it's painfully slow.

Yah.

Drew O'Connor said...

What day is today??

*looks at calendar*

Oh it's the 20th! Cool, one more day until we die

*looks at calendar closely*

OH HELL IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!!!!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Zathract Mist said...

Happy birthday, Em!

Drew O'Connor said...

I think I'm gonna do a DD special to celebrate... might even throw in Skulduggery for the craic!

Zathract Mist said...

Hmm...

I think I might go watch a movie or something.

Bye! And happy birthday again, Em!

Jophiel said...

1 hour and 1 minute until the world ends!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't know whether to be happy or scared!!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Ahhhh yes, you're in a different time zone.

AND DEATH I LOVE YOUR STORY!!
But you probably know that.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

OMG.
Just... LOL and true:

Scientist Dr Karl Kruszelnicki is an eternal optimist, and though he loves the doomsday hype, he just doesn't believe any of it.

"Are we doomed on the 21st of December? Yes, in the sense that there are only three shopping days left before Christmas, but no in the sense that the calendar will keep on going, the world will keep on spinning, and we're not going to be wiped out," he said.
"We will not be struck down by K-Pop or the zombie apocalypse or radioactive mutated dogs eating your guts out - none of those will happen."

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Brb, dinner!

Jophiel said...

Less than a half hour!!!!!!

Jophiel said...

I wish to spend my last 17 minutes dressed as little red riding hood!!!!!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Back!

Death, CHIIIIIIIIIIIIILL!
Did you not read the comment about K-Pop and three days left of Christmas shopping?

Jophiel said...

Yeah...
12 minutes!!!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Zathract Mist said...

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Jophiel said...

Zathract Mist said...

Jophiel said...

ZOMBIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

WTH Seriously, though, I'm still alive.

Jophiel said...

B...BR...BRAINS!

Zathract Mist said...

THE END OF THE WORLD HAS (not) COME!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

The end of the world needs to have more manners and show up on time.

Jophiel said...

*Moans*
BRAINS!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Um.
Anyways, tomorrow we get the new story! YES!

Jophiel said...

*Shuffles in Sliver and Cain's direction*
BRAINS!!!! ME NEED BRAINS!!!!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

You know somebody's a zombie when they start calling you Sliver.

Zathract Mist said...

*grabs pistol and shoots Zombie-Death in the head*

Jophiel said...

*Moans*
*Reaches for Cain*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

You can't kill zombies like that, DON'T YOU KNOW ANYTHING? *sobs*

Jophiel said...

*Contiues walking*
BRAINS!!!!!!*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

I thought you were shuffling.

Jophiel said...

*Walks/shuffles towards Sliver after realizing there are no brains to eat in Cain's head*

Zathract Mist said...

Silver, yes you damn well do.

The Walking Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Dead Island & SP. Destroy the goddamned brain.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Sliver? REALLY?

You should get Scapegrace to join your zombie army.

Jophiel said...

*Shuffles after a stronger scent of brains*
*Heads after Zath*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

YOU PLAY LEFT 4 DEAD 2? I love that game so much!!!

(but in real life, seriously, don't shoot zombies.)

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

(That was very stupid. IN REAL LIFE, don't shoot ZOMBIES. I think Death must've eaten my brain already.)

Jophiel said...

*Moans and tries to bite Zath*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Actually, wait... you destroy the brain, but you can't do it with a gun. I think. I mean, in non video game sense.

Zathract Mist said...

*whacks Death with a fist and lights her on fire*

YES. I LOVE L4D2! I play it with Sparky through Steam!
Yay, another L4D player!

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Death, how do I destroy your brain?

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Fire normally works, actually.

Jophiel said...

*Shuffles into lake*
*Walks out and goes after Zath again with new frenzy*

Jophiel said...

*Tries to bite Zath again*
BRAINS!!!!!!!!

Zathract Mist said...

Guns actually work. You just have to shoot a lot at their heads.

*sighs and severs Death's head with knives*

*stomps on it and kicks it into the lake*

You and Scapegrace. Two of a kind.

Jophiel said...

*Runs away and Thrasher catches head*
*Head smiles*
BRAINS!!!!

Jophiel said...

*Head gets sown back on by Doctor Nye*
Nye ~ And now you aren't a zombie! I hate those critters... Had one come in once, that got interesting...

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Oh my god...

I don't know, I think normally the damaged part of the brain just grows back.

Jophiel said...

*Rubs head*
It feels like I was shot there!!! What happened?! And why do I crave the taste of flesh?

Zathract Mist said...

*hums The End Of The World songs by different artists*

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

Um... it's a long story, Death.

Mycroft Holmes (Ember) said...

I love L4D2. It's the best video game EVER.

Jophiel said...

Long? It's been 20 minutes max!!

Jophiel said...

*Sighs*
I'm going to play CoD for a bit, get in the mood...

Zathract Mist said...

Not the best, but close to!

Jophiel said...

Nah, stuff that!!!!

Jophiel said...

*Reads previous comments*
Uh... Sorry Zath... About... Y'know... Trying to eat you... It wasn't personal! I swear!!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

DEATH!!

YOU WERE A ZOMBIE BUT YOU'RE NOT NOW!! AND THE WORLD HASN'T ENDED!!

A happy ending!!
*group hug*

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Back, also...

Jophiel said...

*Tries not to go near Zath*
I don't think a hug is a good idea... I'm still craving flesh...
*Starts eating arm*

Zathract Mist said...

S'fine, Death.

Hi Miss! Happy-Non-Apocalypse(Unfortunately...) Day!

Jophiel said...

I thought you said hat next time you left, you'd tell us how long your little trip would be!!!!

And the world does not end!!! Just a few outbreaks of Zombieism!

Jophiel said...

Well, Zath, I'd take that as a compliment! You saved Silver from being eaten with your brain!

Anonymous said...

I love how you all assume that the end of the world is right after the day begins. We still have plenty of time before the 21st ends.

Zathract Mist said...

SHUSH, KES.

Anonymous said...

And for me it's 8:30 in the morning on the 20th, so...

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Well, I forgot about that, Death...

An apocalypse WOULD be fun...
...As long as it was only for the days from now up to 11:59pm Christmas Eve because I want my Christmas.

Anonymous said...

I will not shush!


Also, I'm betting that we're all going to survive the 21st and the world will end on the 22nd, because it would be completely typical.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

It shall be the 21st here in...
...2 and a half hours!!

Zathract Mist said...

Boom!

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...

Anonymous said...

My dad.

And last night he was playing Black Sabbath, and about 20 minutes ago it was Johnny Cash, and yesterday morning it was Jimmy Hendricks.


WHAT HAS IT COME TO?!

Jophiel said...

Well, I am going to hope like hell that I do not- BRAINS!!! *Cough* turn into a zombie again!!!
*Still chewing on arm*

And I used to say, that we, we're forever-ever-ever, and I used to say, never say never...

Jophiel said...

Zath, don't forget to ded!!!

Zathract Mist said...

Sorry. I took a closer look at what you said earlier. I'm an idiot. Never mind!

Ded... Uh...

Zathract Mist said...

I dedicate this page to all the zombie movies and games out there.

Especially BOY EATS GIRL and BURIED ALIVE.

Miss Cain; The Aussie Ninja Stalker said...
