Glenn was meditating. It had been a while since he'd trained himself in one of the meditation martial arts, but that was because of Glenn's ineptitude at manipulating his chi. He had given up on it until recently.

[Yeah, techincally by DBZ terms, "Chi" and "Ki" are the same, but I'm not sure if Losarian is referencing a DBZ-variant of it here or not.]

Beforehand, he had done everything he could to heat the room. He had been taught to channel energy of almost any kind into himself to sort of "jump start" chi manipulation. The easiest form of energy to access at the moment was heat energy.

The session had started off quite badly. Within ten minutes Glenn was tired, sweaty, and making almost no progress, sitting in a meditation style on his bed. However, a sudden burst of energy caught him off guard. It wasn't the heat he had been concentrating on, so he altered his concentration to accept this new energy.

[I wonder in honesty what this new type of energy was in this part. :o]

It worked! Glenn was controlling chi! Or something like it. He began to levitate off of his bed and concentrate on the first priority that came to his mind: Defense. He concentrated on a shield, concentrated on surrounding himself with a protective shell. Sure enough, he was being protected. From what, he didn't know. But, suddenly, Glenn noticed that his energy source had just dissapeared. He opened his eyes... and fell like a stone to the floor with a lound crash.

[Hm, maybe the time-freeze weapon did it after all. :P]

Glenn could just hear it now. His mother was going to yell at him from downstairs about dropping heavy objects or something... But he didn't hear it.

[Yep, because using chi in the house is generally frowned upon by your family. You can blow up entire neighborhoods with it. Oh wait, only Saiya-jin usually have that problem. ;)]

"Mom?" Glenn went downstairs to see what was wrong with her.

Kyle had just finished polishing his sword, Excalabur, when he decided to complete this wonderful... whatever time of the day it was, with a nap.

[I don't remember if "Excalabur" is meant to be THE Excalibur from Arthurian folklore, or a totally unique weapon Kyle wields.]

He had just layed his head down, when he glanced out his window.

Something was happening to the sky in the distance... and it was coming closer!

Kyle gripped Excalabur and was about to head outside to check it out, when Excalabur suddenly began to glow. It got brighter... and the light began to engulf Kyle! Kyle could only stare at the blade. Then, like as if someone tuned it off, the light went away. Kyle looked out the window and saw that the sky was now swirling red and blue.

[Yeah, again... we're mostly a much more refined writing group than a lot of people I remember as "Tengu Man" back in those days. We really did try to keep ourselves from being unfairly overpowered and godly. :P]

Kyle made up his mind to go downstairs to see what his stepfather made of it.

The lovely street of St. Bill Estates, south of Threed, was quiet as usual when the freezing occured. However, about five minutes after the freezing, the two houses at the end of the street broke the silence as their front doors flew open and two boys ran to meet each other on the street. One was screaming something about a "chi accident", the other about the apocolypse coming and finding his family dead where they stood.

[And thus chaos, hillarity and cheese enveloped the world. XD]
